The Toledo Jftulfsays; The fact that James 0. Blaiue predicted the exact condition of tilings now prev ailing Id this country, and as accu rately shewed the causes which would lead up to It, is now recalled. Head the words of this greatest of latter day American statesmen, and see how clearly the drift of events indicated to him the evils that were to oome: "I love ay country and my countrymen. I am au American, and I rejoice every day of my life that I am. I enjoy the general prosperity, and kuow that the workmen of this land are the best paid, the best fed and the best clothed of any laborers on t he luce of the earth. Many of them have homes of their owu. They are surrounded by all the comforts and many of the luxuries of life. "I shudder, however, at the thought that the time must come when all this will bechauged, when the general prosperity of the country will be destroyed, wh the great body of workmen in this land, who are so prosperous, will hear their wives and children cry for bread: that the day must come when the great factories and man ufactoiies of this land will shut down, and where there is now life and activity there will be the silence of the tomb. "And the reason why this must be is this: The great southern w ing of the democratic party are determ ined to esablish the doctriue of free trade in this land. They will be assisted by their northern allies. There is a great body of visiouary, but educated men, who are em ployed day by day in writing free trade essays and arguments in favor of the doctrine, which find their way to every newspaper in this land. The great body of our people have never experienced, them selves, the sufferings which always result when the protective prin ciples are iaid aside. "Poisoned and excited by wild statements of these writers and the demagogic appeals of the dem ocratic speakers, the result will be that in the near future these forces which are now working will be strong enough to defeat at the polls the party advocating the doctrine of protection.' It must inevitably follow that uncertainty and doubt will ensue. The business men of the country, fearing the destruction of the principles of protection, will decline to engage in business; con sequently mills will shrt down, and the workmen will be thrown out of employment. "The people will then sec as they have never seen before that they can not be prosperous and have work while this principle is threat ened. In the midst of their suffer ing they will lean that the only way they can be prosperous and happy is to vote sor the party that has built up the industries by which they have gained a livelihood; be cause they will then see clearly that when the manufactory is shut down there is no demand for the only thing which they have to sell, and that is their labor." If these hard times do not convince the people that the republican princi ples are better than democratic, tben indeed they are wedded to their idols. And now two months more are to elapse before even the Wilson bill comes to a vote in the senate, and then It must go back to the house again. The people of Oregon must vote solid on June 4th to show the administra tion the pulse of the people. , It Is only a short time to the prima ries Republican April 6th and Demo cratic April 6th; county conventions the 6th and 7th. A democratic paper advertises as follows: "Wanted, at this office, au able-bodied, hard featured, bad- tempered, not to-be-put-off, and uot to- lie-backed down, freckled faced young man to collect for this paper; must furnish his own horse, saddli bugs, pistols, whisky, and cowhide. We furnish the ac counts. To such we promise con stant ami laborious employment. it" . .' 1 .'.

Editor Wkst Sinn: In your last week's Issue Reform complains of the action of certain eltlnens of Independ ence attacking our public school In de manding a reduction of 23 per cent hi teacher's salaries. It was the taxpay ers that recommended to the board the above reduction in employing teacher for next school year. Keforui tried to leave the 1m predion ou the public mind that the demand of the tax pay em takes Immediate effect The tax payers have never shown themselves to tie so Ignorant of the law nor so base In deposition. The high standing of our school has only been made msstble by the taxpayers. It was the taxpayer that laid the foundation and keeps In repair all the bulhiliigs, ground ami everything pertaining to the entln school system. It was not "certain cit izens," but 4-1 taxpayers out of 4, that made this request The entire board was present aud one f Its member oni-il the resolution, also two other speakers, one of them lu quite an elo quent appeal, denounced the proposl tlon as dishonest, yet the quiet and tin assuming taxpayer was at the "old stand'' attending to his own business, He can always be rolled upon Incases of emergencies. Reform also says "let us lower the standard or our public schools, if we must." Not at all. We are not going to do any such thing. "Fouls rush in where angels dure not treed. Reform dares to meas ure teacher's efficiency by their salaries. Teaching Is a profession, aud one of the noblest of them ull. What of the phy slelan, surgeon, nurse or any of the professions? Measure them by dollars and cents, as to their efficiency. How ever, some measure nil things by one standard, the dollar. Again, Reform says: "Why make the first reduction (and such a swell ing one) lu the public schools, and let our city expenditures go uucensured." Taxpayer is not In the censuring bus- lows. There was not one word of een sure as to the action of the school board; for they are elected by the taxpayers, and will always have their parental care. One other request should have been made, that was, a full Itemized report of the board's doings read at each annual meeting. This report should have lieen published In one, or both, of our city rmiiers. This Is duo the tax. payers, and they will attend to that when opportunity offers. The tax payer le long-suffering arid patient, and when times are good, Is often liberal; but when times are hard he Is vigilant and careful, knowing that the welfare of the whole country depends uHn bis watchful care. This has not been a pleasant tusk; and sometimes Frank lin's rule Is hard to work under, but when you deal In facts they are not subject to disarrangeineu., and we must "Hew to the line, let the chips full where they will."
