The Kairrprli) BMritBti-tva It rirmlatl mmv tha a alwubl the rambiwal rlrcnlatlwa ! all at her papers ! Clarkama feniilj. In Ute Hatter of Wtfn. The Portland Teleirram imagine that it is railed upon to defend democratic "princi ples" no matter what sacrifice of sense or t-atb such defense entails. Some tlays ago ii asked why it was that there had been in stances of wage reduction in protected in dustries since the enactment of the McKin ley law while there had been not a single instaiicc of increase. The En'teipuisi de nied the truth of the statement implied in the question and cited the Telegram to ill Mario's of wan increase which it could eas ily TeriV. Without attempting to establish its claim in this respect the Telegram re plies by questioning the truthfulness of the EsTKKrusE's statements. In other words it does n't believe that there have been any advances in wages in protected industries since the JlcKiuley law went into operation. The Telegram is welcome to its own sweet democratic contempt of the truth. If it were not so it could not be democratic. The American Economist, quoted by the Extu Fltsiand which the Telegram affects to dis believe, is a eriodira! giving acial atten tion to the effects of the McKinlev tariff. If it were a periodical published in the inter est of free trade the Telegram and its dem ocratic contemporaries would at once accord it the hhrhest repntability. But whether it is reliable or not, when it affords every reader the means of verifying its statements there Is no sense in denouncing it until its claims shall he found to he untrue. The Telegram said there had not been an instance of wage increase in protected in dustries under the operation of the XlcKin Jey law. That is. of course, a very foolish claim, foolish because ridiculously untrue. If the Telegram mieli that if it were called upon to alee! the house would choose a democratic president and the senate would etect a republican vice president, Thua the republicans might have a plurality In the electoral colley ami still lose the president, for It requires ma jority in that unique body to make a legal election. The democrats recognise the people's party followers as their ablest assistant be cause the new faith attracts some republi can voters who would he shocked at the idea that they were in any way aiding the denux'ratic party. SVinoeralic success de pends more on the weakening of the repub lican force than in accessions to Its own ranks. It is by no means impossible that the democrats and people s party presiden tial electors, if they shall have a majority by combining, may effect a combination in the electoral cottyp that shall split the tiokrt and defeat the republicans. A democrat ic president and a people party vice presi dent would lie the logic of such a trade. Both parties would teel victorious if they should be able to down the republicans. A ctatTtaS has been isoued by the TrafhY Association of California indorsing the es tahlrshmenlofcoinvethig cliperaia1 steaiH- shipliiies between Sew York and Sua Prate- Cisco, and recommending support and co- orveratlnn as against the old established llue. It is simply a question of husinesa. The old lines have deserted from their alle giance to local interests and have, as it were. created in.unectra in the minds of biwi- ness men. Trust is destroyed in this friend ship of the past and new enterprises deserve te be encouraged. Only by competition can the ancient Duressor of this coast's hard- won advantages lie brought to terms. The thing that every business man should insist upon is competition along every outlet and route of IransnortaliiHi, HAKKIfm OP TBI WORLD, Th lHAVeae Between British anil American Cwstoau Dalle. "THaproteuheUrirt is a blighting bur deti on labor, and the higher the tariff the heavier the burden. Protection is solely for the benefit of the capitalist and monop olist." shrieks the I'oiiiand Telegram, It i a regular old-fashioned bourbon yell. To find itself betrayed into arguing a party question so alarms our esteemed contempo rary that it must give utterance to these fa miliar scare phrases to quiet its nerves. We would like to see the argument the Tele gram would advance to show that free trade iv on Id benefit lulxir in this country. Th awkward combination, Cleveland and Stevenson, is enough to beat the ticket. The enthiisium of the most devoted crowd would i evaporate while the people were twisting their tongues around the hexaiuetrlc mon strosity, Cleveland and Stevenson. It is ahsolutelv out of the question to cheer that combination in hot weather. Tb great and decisive reason for the nom ination ol M'hitelaw licit was that, as min ister to France, he worked tuoctssfully to oi-cu new markets for American grain and pork, and thus made himself a peculiarly good representative of the doctrine of reci procity. Some sacri.llcea have to be .made to hold the market of th world. KngUud, which ha some advantage over other Kurqen nations in the way of machinery, capital and transportation facilities, finds that to hold her own in the Here competition go ing on she must reduce wages to the lowest point, Th proves of reduction must tie slow to avoid collision with labor organiaa lions, Apimrently th cotton manufactur ers have t.iade a somewhat too heavy re duction, as th federation of masPor ootton spinners hav met it with a lookout, which, It is said, will withdraw TtM.ftO operative from the mills. Th English manufacturer is, in fact, between two II res, If he dees not reduce th rales of labor other nations whose Inlaw seal is lower will lake from from him the markets of th world. If he doe attempt reductions he is met by or ganised, lalnir. Competition has, in fact, brought the world's markets to a (mint at which they are not Worth very much. If men and women have to work at starvation wage to hold these market it i only a question of short Urn when lalnir w ill re bel. Th last straw is no heavier than oth ers, but it breaks th camel's back. Most siniHoditle are now very cheap, Present price do not afford a good living for the labor that goes Into them. There la a general complaint of over-production, when th real cans of Imnhle it under-con-tinnption, 1-abor i paid so poorly that It is barely poaaibl to buy th neeeasarie of life. All over Knrope laborer are forced to be content with the absolute necessaries of life. In th face of those conditions there ar people who urjre upou the United State th policy of ojeniag our market to lh cheapest tnauulaciuters, and to auier into competition with the cheapest manufactur ers for the markets of th world. In the long run the cheapest manufacturer Is th one who employs the lowest priced labor. Such condition as machinery, tranorta lion facilities, capital a. id method of busi ness in time becom equalised, and leav th real lest of cheap prodnctiuu to labot. I'uder a protective tariff the I'niled States at least controls th home market. Ity means of duties we ran make foreign good ctivt as much as our own goods, mad with higher-priced lalmr, cost. Foreign market area matterof seeundary iniartance. There are sum kinds of commodities which, owing to patented machinery, we can pro duce at leas cost than foreign goods ot Ilk quality can be produced, These we may send wherever we find a market for them, but the hemic market is and for a long time will lie the main reliance of home manufac turers. -San Francisco Call.

Tb Fourth of July celebration in Oregon City will be the most unique in the state. The single feature of the illumination of the falls will be an attraction greater than any will write to the Camden 1 uUier towu in tne s,a, can oftft. Woolen company, manufacturers of dres goods, Camden, Maine, it will find that an increase of ten ercent. has taken place in wages in thatactory. The Hawthorn Mills company, manufacturer of cassi meres and felts at Glenville, Connecticut, have in creased wages fifteen r cent. Alfred Dolge, felt goods, Dolgeville, Sew York, has increased wages twenty per cent. At the Baltimore & Ohio machine shops, Graf ton, West Virginia, wages have been ad vanced twenty per cent. B. Rowitzer, wag- pns, i tiasenurg, Wisconsin, raised wages ten per cent. The Lake Superior Lumber company at Sault Ste Marie, Michigan, has advanced wages fifteen per cent. Close & Christie and W ilk ins & Close, glove manu facturers of Mayfield, New York, hare raised the wages of their employes fif teen to twenty-five per cent. We might fill columns with examples of this kind. The bureau of labor of New York stale reorts 1!M1 instances of increased wages for and 2,05 cases in which the hours of labor ere shortened while it re cords but 441 cases of wage reduction. The report of the Illinois labor bureau shows that wages in thecoal mines of that state were higher m 1801 than before in four years. In all these cases the increased wage was in protected industries and since the operation of the Me Ki nicy law. It would be as untrue to say there had been no wage reductions as to say there had been no advance in wages. The labor mar ket is subject to fluctuations as well as any other market. Even free trade Britain ex periences these changes. No one of sense supposes that a "robber" tariff or any other kind of a tariff or absolute free trade will es tablish, wages at any certain figure and keep them so. But American wages aver age higher under the protection of the Mc Kinlcy law than wages in any other coun try, and they are being sustained, not de pressed, by it. If the Telegram would think for itself, instead of accepting the cant phrases of the party as its gospel it would not make such ridiculously untrue statements. Oriooic Citt may not be so fresh and chipper as some of the young towns of 'the boom era but those who know the city now Will probably not be able to recoguite it a veur hence. Tbe electric motor line up the east side from Portland will surely be here this sum mer. There is no longer room for reasona ble doubt In the matter. A CHICAGO DRINKING 90NO. Tbe Presidential Election. Notwithstanding the fact that republi cans have even more confidence than usual in the success of their national ticket this year there are elements in the campaign that make it an unusual one. The comparative strength of the republican ticket is admitted by most fair minded people of all parties. Even democrats will concede that Harrison will surely carry more states than will Cleveland. He will get a larger electoral vote than Cleveland will. The element of greatest uncertainty is the people' party Tote. If that party should carry tw or three states the election would probably be throwrr to congress.

Dis regarding the clamor of hostile faction, and refusing to lend Itself to schemes which had no higher motjve than a sense of personal grievance, it committed the party standard to the man who four years ago carried it to victory, and who in this contest will, as we believe, prove again the successful lead er. Louisville Courier Journal: Beyond any question, the president is the strongest man the republicans could have put in the field. Milwaukee Sentinel: The representative organization of the party Judged, and acted upon its judgment, as correctly as In the cases of Lincoln and Grant. There is no question or doubt as to the quality shown by President Harrison in the conduct of the executive office. , Harper's Weekly: Mr. Harrison is un doubtedly a good representative of his party. H is a high protectionist, he favors a force bill and he is sound uwn th currency. He is a ready sieaker, with an unusual gift for brief, occasional speeches. His administra tion, while it is discredited with the circum stances of the appointment ol the postmas ter general, and with it violation of the pledges both of the party and ol the presi dent himself in regard to civil service re form, has been generally acceptable to his party, and the opposition to his renonilna tion has come from those who wanted mora patronage than they received. It Is un doubtedly the strongest nomination that could hav been mad. New Orleans New Delta: Aa between the two men, Blaine and Harrison, there cannot be, in our Judgment, two opinions as to their strength. Harrison is a much stronger man than Blaine, and he is going to be a good deal harder to beat than Blaine would have been. In the first place his personal record is a clean on; there are no personal scandal connected with him. He ha giv en the country a good administration, viewed from a republican standoint, and he has been true to his friends. Chicago Herald: The patriotic people of the United States, without regard to political affiliations, will leel like rejoicing at the president's success. It is a triumph of decency over dishonesty, of candor over duplicity, of conservative common sense over fatuous idiocy. If it shall be decided in November that the coun try must endure a republican president for another term, then the country may con gratulate itself that the choice of the Minne apolis convention was Benjamin Harrison. Marion county cast for congressman at the recent election 5404 votes. The cast for governor two years ago 4U7 votes. This shows an increase in the two year of 767 votes, or 3835 people. Marion county is growing. With the right sort of work, this growth can be continued indefinitely. East Orexonian : Ya-ten-e-ou-itz, the celebrated chief, is lying very ill at his home on the reservation, and it Is be lieved he will soon be gathered to bis fathers. Ya-tene-ou-itz sent for all his people Sunday, and made a will, by which his wife will receive the larger portion of bis property. A surveying party, at work in tbe mountains between Lafayette and Tilla mook, sent word last week that they had found tbe skeleton of a man, which bad evidently been in the mountains for several years. No one In the vicinity has been found who has any idea who tbe unfortunate man was. About six months ago a Umatilla re servation Indian named 0-wo-o was killed by a train. He left no estate and very few recognizable remain. Before bis death be bad borrowed if 20 from a bank in Pendleton, giving bis note, secured by the name of Indian Bhe-wa-wa. 0-we-o'g bereaved better half, Lucy, was not content that any of her lord's debts should remain unpaid, and skinned dead sheep during the Winter and spring until she earned the required amount. She presented herself at tbe bank Tuesday and paid the note, much to the astonishment of Its 'employees, She tender! the interest also, but this was refused by the cashier, , Ht'M VOSl.
