PATR9NI.K IIOMK INDUSTRY.
OREGON CITY, NOVEMBER 20,1890.
To Subscribers.
The season of the year lias arrived
when the proprietor of a newspaper
naturally expects to reeeivo some com
jieniMition for his labors The amounts
luo us from Riibsoriliers are indivitltially
Miall, but taken in the Hereunto they
amount to quite a large sum. Pttring
these hard times it t:ix"s all one'a einr
g'uw to keep a piper ,uUit. l'lease try to
send us a dollar or two on iti-cotint, or if
you are unable to get the dollar ami have
produce send or bring that and we will
allow you market price.
A ciianuk of 25,003 votes in the t tates
of California, Delaware, Indiana, Ken
tucky, North Dakota, Oregon, West
Virginia and Wyoming would have given
liryau a majority in the electoral college.
Ace ikoinu to the Silom Journal $30,000
was spunt in Portland on the eve of the
rocent election in buying "voters," ti
"saVJ the nation" and our "national
gold-standard honor " Truly, the cam-
piign just close 1 covered with infamy
tho moral lepers that managed the
republican machine.
Of the seventeen states carried by Mr.
Harrison in 1892, Mr. MeKinley carried
fotirt6en and Mr. llryan three. Of tho
twenty-three states carried by Mr. Olevo
land in 1892, Mr. McK inley got eleven
and Mr. Hryan twelve. Of Mr. Mc
Kinlev's 281 electoral votes. l.iJ, or
nearly one-half, came from states car
ried by Cleveland.
Tim career of the Silve ton lad, Homer
Davenport, shows w hat pluck and perse
verance can accomplish, five years
ago he was a nobody, and now lie is the
greatest cartoonist in America with
salary of $16,000. It is true Homer
had a working capital of talent to start
with, but many a talented man has no
more vim than a goose,
It seems from the returns reasonably
eertain that repeating was practised, in
tho iiitereNt of tho republican party, in
Clackamas, Multnomah, Marion and
e her Willainetto valley counties. Every
honest man must admit that. Oregon
needs a registration law, unless elections
nro to become a farce.' What will the
legislature do in this matter?
It happens sometimes that the defeat
ed one in a eonllict is tho acu.il victor.
W. J. llryan occupies a warmer pluae in
tho hears of tho American people, and
is far more tho object of their a liniration,
than Major MeKinley. Tho seed ho lias
sown through the length and breadth
of the land will not fail of abun taut
fruitage, and Mirk II inn i kn .v it for
ho is advising liU fellow gol lliugs to
keep tho fences in good repair.
Ir is not in goo I form to be in ill
1 minor ov.'r the ubun laneo of moisture
that is deluging tho country. The time
w ill come in man's history when water
wi'l be the most precious thing on earth,
exceeding In value all the g ild an 1
diamonds. Then the millionaire will lie
tho individual who has the monopoly of
tho water in a large reservoir or a
poronniil stream and navigation of the
extinct o.io.ms will have fang lveu
superceded by aortal multicycles.
In 1851 the wheat production of the
United States was 100,140,000 bushels,
representing four and one-third bushels
per capita of population. For the ten
years from 18U2 to 1871, inclusive, the
wheat production was advancod to an
annual average of five and one-half
bushels per capita for the entire period.
For the ten years from 188H to 1S95,
inclusive, the average was over seven
and three-quarters bushels per capita
for the entire period.
MiKini.ky will be in duty bound to
the sjiectilators in bonds and gold who
contributed republican boodle to con
tinue the disastrous financial policy be
gun during the Harrison administration
and continued by Secretary Carlisle.
More bonds will have to bo sold to ob
tain gold, thus increasing our national
lebt. We cannot hope that MeKinley
will bring order out of confusion in the
treasury unless ho has sufficient man
liixi I and independence to shake bim-i-H
Ioo from the money sharks whose
patriotism and religion is centered in i
liie twenty-dollar pieces.
Da. II Maxwell give it as the result
of fifty yearn' investigation and experi
ence, that cancer is chiefly catinej ly
eating too much meat, and cRjiccially
pork,
Tmk mugmuirip organs of tliu Kant
ridicule the thought that there will lie
even on attempt by the MeKinley ul
uilnihtration to secure international
bimetallism. The plank in the repub
lican platform pledging the party to
such a policy was merely inolansea to
catch flies merely a campaign lie.
Undkr the administration of Mr.
McKinlev we mav look for an era of
trusts and high protection, saystho New
York World. His name is identified with
an excessive tariff, and there is nothing
in his history to show that lie is un
friendly to oppressive corporations and
aggregations of capital. Many of the
grievances of which the people have
complained, and complained justly, are
likely to be increased before HM).
K. II. O'abiibbt of the Canyonvillo
Avalanche-Journal says: "Clackamas
county, which went overwhelmingly
populist, last June, rolled up a big
majority for MeKinley. The credit tor
this is duo Secretary Kyan, of the county
central committee, who was opposed in
his plans by members of his own party."
low do Bro. Dresser et al like this,
who tried so hard when they thought
the county was lost for MeKinley
to lay the blame for expecte 1 dufj.it on
Mr. Kyan?
(iKNKUAL Mas er Workman Sovereign,
of the Knightsof Labor, says in his ad
dress to the general assembly that the
window-glass manufacturers havo built
up an enormous monopoly at tho ex
pense of tho American p ople, but that,
notwithstanding this fact, the increase
of labor employed is not American. He
recommends that the General Executive
Board be instructed to urge, that instead
of prohibitory tariff on glass, tho tariff
be transferred to the immigrant glass
worker, so that the industry shall be
retained in the control of national work
men and the foreign workmen kept
where they lielong.
Is nearly allot the states the fertilizers
offered for sale within their borders are
analyzed by authority of the state and
priced in accordance with their intrinsic
value. The farmer is thus protected
against adulterated fertilizers. Similar
results can unquestionably be obtained
from an extonsion of thi- at pornal over
sight to other materials, such as liquors,
spices, coffee, iron, steel, cast iron, oils,
paints and soaps. At present it is very
difficult to get a paint which is genuine,
or a good lubricating oil et a reasonable
price, and many of the soaps sold
throughout the country are so injurious
to clothes as to tie worse than useless.
Is this not, after all, a matter for govern
mental control? It is the duty of the
government to detect and punish fraud
wnerever found, and the' e is consider
able room here for tho exercise of this
function. Have not all classes as much
right for protection against fraud as the
agricultural, if that class would not be
the principal beneficiaries of government
inspection?
With the object of secur ng accesi for
her navy and expanding commerce to
the Atlantic, the ltus8.an government
has begun tho construction of a now port
and city at a place called Ekatrinograd,
si tinted on tho Murnuin coast of Lap
land, between tho White Sea and the
Norwegian boundary, and at a point
which, thanks to the Gulf stream, is free
from ice the whole winter through A
ine has likewise been begun to connect
by rail tho new port with St. Petersburg.
Tho building of this new city and port
on the dreary shores of Russian Lap'.and
bids fair to prove one of the groatevents
in Russian history, comparable only to
tho construction of St. Petersburg, by
Peter the Great, t the mouth of the
Neva. At the present moment the acceBS
to all Russia's ports in the north could
lie barred by the powers holding the
entrance to the Haiti,!, while in the same
way it is the power cotuimu ding the
entrance to the Dardanelles upon whom
the Czar must depend for access to his
mrts in the southern portion of his
empire. The possession oi a great pon
opening out upon the Atlantic will vastly
increase tho importance of Russia as one
of the great maritime powers of the
world.
MoNstRi'K Chaqnette,an old Frenchman
of Bridgeport, Conn., has invented a
machine that develops a large amount
of power by means of air pressure at so
low a cost that electrical devices cannot
compete with it. It consists of an iron
wheel, 82 feet in diameter (on which
rests a cylindical iron cage), running
horizontally, on ball bearings, on a firm
pier of iron and brick. The 10 spokes
of the wheel consist of double iron
"latticed" girders and at the end of
each spoke is a set of three wheels, side
by side, weighing four and a half tons.
Tho inner of the three wheels runs on
tho upper edge of the iron cage on the
big wheel, while the two outer wheels
strike and pass over, at short intervals,
tho "rocker bars" which drive the 200
air compressors distributed both inside
and outside of the cage. The air is led
by pipes from the compressors to an air
tank. A 140-horseiMwerengine revolves
the big w heel at the rate of 10 revolu
tions per minute ) this gives motion to
the 20 smaller wheels which strike the
rtvker bars that comnress the air. and
tho air tank develops a iwer nearly ;
SM ((.r ront
greater than that ol the ,
sttMtn engine.
The Companion Calendar.
It is said that tho expense of making
the Cuiniiiiiiin . rt cmrmter for 181)7
was so great that had it lieen published
in tho usual quantity it could not be sold
for less than one dollar Four beautiful
female figures nro reproduced on four
folding pages. Each figure is lithograph

duction of the original wiitur-culur paint

excellence of design and charm of color
and tone. The sizo of each of the four
folding pages is lti by II inchcH.
It is by far the best piece of color work
the L'um'imni has ever offered. Both
