MRS. STANFORD'S POVERTY.
We Americans delight In nothing so
much as being humbugged. Especially
is sentimental humbug attractive. All
the talk and gush about Mrs. Leland
, Stanford going to Europe to sell ber
jewels worth 100,000,000 in order to
carry on the university endowed by her
late husband out of the money obtained
by swindling the government, is pure
fiction and drivel says the Tomahawk.
It was most likely a suggestion made by
her attorneys in order to elicit sympathy
and influence public opinion, but once
having got into the press, it has traveled
on wings that know no rest. A woman
whose vanity induces her to purchase
a million dollars worth of jewels is not
likely to part with them for a great
benevolent or unselfish purpose. Such
a disposition would have precluded
their purchase. Again, the suit of the
government to recover fifteen millions
of dollars from Senator Stanford's
estate, which he had fraudulently ob
tained, in nowise effects tho income cf
the university. Mrs. Stanford, as the
executrix of the husband's eslate has
possession ot his estate and all its
income, which this suit in no wise
impaiis. So that the suit has nothing
to do with diminishing the income of
the estate, or impairing the fund for
the support of the university. The
income of this estate now, as for years
past, has consisted largely in the sale of
fruits and in the production and sale of
wine, brandy and raisins. So this new
variation of distress, about being coin
pelted also to resort to the sale of
brandies, in order to support the
university, which religious and temper
ance people are criticising, is another
humbug. There is and cover wu
any need of sellins jewels, This gympii
thetic dodge has been used before to do'
ceive mankind for purposes of plunder
ing them.
THE SILVER Ul'ESTWX.
A correspondent, writing to the San
Francisco Examiner, nuked that paper
to explain what is tho silver imcstion,
and received the following answer:
"To give a 'brief explanation of the
silver question, which MuHsrs. llorr
and Harvey attempted, without
much succesH, lo elucidate in 1-10,000
woods, would overtax human power
uf condensation. Two years ago "The
Examiner" nuhllxhed a seriul explana
tion in thirteen chapters. However, wo
will attempt to give our correspondent
a Utile light in a few paragraphs.
lieore 1H71 anybody nail tne riirni
to take either silver or gold to the mints
ot the principal commercial nations of
the world, except Kngland, and have it
turned into coin, which was full standurd
mnnev. and could he uneil to an unlimit
ed extend for meeting debts, taxes and
all other monetary demands. The pro-
noHil ons in which the nietais were
accepted at llie mints varied in different
countries. In tho t n ten Mates ine
ratio was 1(1 to 1 that Ih sixteen ounces
of silver mado as many dollars as one
ounce of gold. In the Latin Union.
consisting of France, Italy, lielginm,
Switzerland, and Greene, it was l'ti to
1 in other words, 13,'j ounces ol silver
made as mnny francs as one otinco of
gold. Still other slight variations wero
found in other conntiies.
In 1871 Germany, enriched by the
French indemnity, began what she
oonidured a reform' of her currency by
introducing thesinglegoldslaiidind. In
a short time her minis were closed to
the free coinago of silver so that only
the holders of gold could have his bul
lion turned into money. The only new
silver coins were struck by the govern
ment in quantities for small change.
Germany's policy wan followed by the
Scandinavian countries and by tho
United Slates, w hich was not then using
any gold or silver as money except on
the i'acilic coast, ana in 18,4 tne l.atin
Union, finding its mints llooilcil with i
German ai:d oilier foreign silver and its
gold leaving it refused to continue coin
ing silver for individu ils any longer.
Before thut tune tne relative values
of silver and gold had been compara
tively steady, hut since then there have
been violent fluctuations, and the values
of silver, measured in gold has gone
down, until now it is only about half as
much as it was in 1873 . At tho same
time there have been several poriodn of
commercial distress, which the udvocati-s
ot silver say huve been duo to the clos
ing of tho mints in the period from 1871
to 1874.
In 1878 the I nited States attempted
to restore the value of silver by buying
and coining fL',0ul),0U0 worth a month,
but as this did not succeed, the purchase
were increased in 18! 10 to 4.500,000
ounces per month, payment being made
in treasury notes anil coinage practically
suspended. This did not work either,
and in 181).') the purchases were stopped.
All tho dollars coined under the pur
chase laws are full legal tender, and we
now have 423,28,219 of them on hand,
in addition to silver bullion in the treat,
urv representing f I24,47!).840 more.
The question is what, if anything,
should be done by the United Stales
now? It is reasonably certain that if
all the countries that hud the free coin
age of silves before lntl should open
their mints again, the old relations be
tween the two metnls could be restored
and the present fluctuations stooped.
But the more enthusiastic advocates of
silver in this country do not want to
wait lor that lliey Insist that the
United Slates could do alone what was
done by the principal nations of tho
world up to (iiiarler ot a centurv ago,
and they demand the immediate opening
uf our mints to free coinuge. '1 he op
ponents of this policy say that if this
were done all the silver bullion in the
United States to be turned into American
dollars, and that all tho American gold
would go out of circulation, after which
we should find ourselves like Mexico,
with a cheap and fluctuating silver cur
rency, and with what gold remained in
the country selling as merchandise at a
high premium.
The possible results ot the experiment
of free coinage by the United States
alone without any help from Kurope,
afford abundant material for speculation
and discussion, as we have had no
national experience in that line to
guide us .
Ph. Rowland's administration of the
stale Insane asylum may be said to have
boon eminently satisfactory to the fax
payers at least from a financial point
of viow. In a reduction of per capita
monthly expenses of patients from 12
70 to 13 87 ho has made a record for
economy In the various details that go
to make up the management of a groat
household, which It will lax bis succos
son ability to the utmost to duplicate
A largo part of this per capita reduction
is, of course, duo to tho Increase in the
number of palionts, which has boon
something over one-third in the four
yours covered by Dr. Rowland's ad
ministration. Ono thing is apparent
from ai inspection of tho pay roll tho
rolulive decrease in (he running expense
of the institution has not been due to a
cut in the salaries of officials. Con
corning these salaries, for obvious rea
sons the secretary of stuto desires that
"no fuss" shall be made. Of course
the people have no right to make a fuss
about a thing cf this kind. Their right
to know what salaries tlieso, their
servants, receive is indeed questioned,
a concession in this respect having been
made with great reluctance. All thut
they have to do is to pay Ibe tuxes. Mr.
Kincaid and the other bosses and mani
pulutors will do tho rest. Oregon ian.
KvKitY indication points to a return of
prosperity. Foreign investors) have
undoubted faith in the natural wealth
of the Willamette valley. Money on
first-class sectnlty has bo n borrowed in
this city at 7 percent. The banks of
London and other centers of wealth are
gorged with cash. We are in the garden
spot of the Northwest and let us be
patient until the clouds roll by.
Two Knslern Oregon lawyers were re
cently allowed $",fi00 for foreclosing a
9,000 mortgage. The client got 12,500.
This i simply outrageous. Our courts
should protect the people against sucli
extortionate charges, why not just-as
bad as robbery.

THE LlEA THEN CHINESE.
A Presbj torean minister of Pittsburg,
Pa., says the Dispatch, thinks he bus
made a new discovery, namely, that
Chinese cannot be converted to Chris
t ianity. This may be new to the Kastern
divine, but to the ordinary mortal on
the Pacific coast, this fact is well estab
lished. These creatures are shrewd,
cunning, and discerning. They will
become Christians, in order to learn the
language of the country, and have pretty
white girls teach them the way to sal
vation : But they never becomo Chris
tians to such an extent as to cut off their
queues; when they do, then you can
generally count on their sincerity,
otherwise, they will bear watching.
Thousands of dollars are spent an
nually to christianize the Chinese, but
to our idea of thinking it is like pouring
water in a rat hole, to drown the ruts
out. Show ns the Chinamen with
queues off, and we will acknowledge
that he ia sincere, perhaps, otherwise,
otherwise.
The populist must have a harder "row
to hoe" than the average person or bo
does not know- any better than to get
off tho following, which is a good sample
of a populist's writing. It seems that
the accusations mentioned hit tho popu
list harder than anyone else :
"Times are getting better." "I see
in Bradslrecls that limes are picking up
in the Last," is frequently heard on the
streets of Oregon Cily. Such remarks
can come from only two classes if in
dividuals tho ignorant, or tho vicious
political deceiver. The ignorant who
are, to a greater or less extent, dependent
upon the "bosses" for employment, and
are "better oil' to lot polilicsalone," of
course, having some lit tin employment,
and not allowed to think or read but
little for themselves, and dare not, as
sociate with the idle, cranky populists
'ovil communications corrupt good
manners, you know), know but littlo
ubotit tho true condition of tho country,
and bearing the stereotyped expression,
given at tho beginning of this article, re
peated so often that they suppose that
in some mysterious way times perhaps
may be getting bettor, but shake their
heads doubtfully ami say I don t un
derstand." "C" in Herald.
PiTTsiii'iKi has just paid off 211,000
worth of bonds issued to pay the dam
ages caused by tho railroad riuta of 18
years ago. Chicago has claims pending
for 1,750,000 damages sustained by the
railroads during the strike of Inst year.
There is one item among those claims
that should cause tho A. I!. U. to relied
on the effects of a "sympathetic strike."
The smallest claim presented at Chicago
is for '.'050, being the total damage
claimed by the Pullman Pullaee Car
Company on account of tho lawlessness.
Out of 1,7)0,000 losses to corporations,
the com em against which the strikers
acted only lost 2l'50. A strike with
such results can be viewed in no other
way than as a foolhardy w aste of energv.
But then all strikes hurt tho innocent
and unoffending more than the guilty.

Tbxbi are no more talk of "the army
of the unemployed." Industrial activity
has taken the place of tariff discussion ;
the whistle of the factory engine and the
rattle of the loom have silenced the pro
tection yawp and calamity howl of the
republican orator. When 500,000 work
man have had their wages raised since
the first of April, is it any wonder that
contentment ia returning to the ranks
of the working people ? The democratic
tariff policy has succeeded, and ia this
