Oregon has set the seal of condemnation upon the free-trade policy of the democratic party. The people of Oregon came to know that every industry of that great state was threatened with destruction, and, as a mat ter of self-defense, they have given their votes in favor of the party which believes In the protection of American Industries, the party which would, if it could, protect the lumber industry, the wool industry, the hop industry, the horse-raising Industry, and all the agricultural industries of the country.

The following is given bv an exchange as the cause of the threatened war in the Orient and will be of interest at this time when many of our readers may not recall the diUVrences which threaten war on the other side of the Pacific: "The history of the Corean incident be gins with the Corean rebellion, when, upon the application of the Xing, the United States sent the warship Baltimore to Chem ulpo. Almost simultaneously the Japan ese and Chinese governments sent military forces to aid the king in his efforts to stamp out the rebellion. They were successful, and when quiet was restored the Coreans proffered their thanks and suggested a withdrawal of the foreign forces. This was not so easily accomplished, and govert. nient official made an explanation sub stantially as follows of the situation in Corea. and of the attitude and course of this government: The Chinese and Japanese have alwavs been, at odds whenever Corea was con cerned, for each had long cherished designs upon the autonomy of the country. How ever, the Chinese were willing to withdraw if the Japanese would do likewise, but the latter country discovered that she had a I nuniler of grievances against the Corean9 on account of maladministration, and mak ing a series of demands, some of which touched the very existence of Corea as an independent nation, Japan announced that her troops would not be withdrawn until these conditions were met. At this point the attention and interest of each nation was strongly aroused, for it was seen that the peace of all Northern Asia was in jeopardy, and the powers that had great in terests there began to consider what should be done to dissuade Japan from pursuing a course that promised to break down the integrity of the little nation that had served as a buffer between the two great Asiatic nations. Great Britain and Russia and France interposed with pacific remon strances, but these wereunheeled by Japan, the present government of which it was intimated here, was in such a desperate pass politically that it felt obliged to excite the national feeling as a means of self-preservation. The United States was drawn into the matter. We have large interest in China and Japan and prospect of greatly enlarging onr trade relations, and United States Minister Dunn atTokio represented the conditions to the state department, and it was felt to be not only in our own in terest, but for the good of all concerned, to re-inforce the efforts of the great Euro pean powers to prevent a conflict that would surely be disastrous to both sides. The Oregon State Journal under the head "A Proclamation,'' prints the following as an unique and characteristic aildress Issued bv one IVbs. It is addressed to "the repub lics, empires, kingdoms and principalities of the universe." and is issued from the Throne room, Uhlichs ball, Chicago, and reads as follows: "On and after Monday next, unless I change my mind or the A. II. U. cuts oil' my salary and I have to go to work, the world will make but one revolution in thirty six hours instead of twenty. four hours as heretofore. The sun will herealter rise in the West except on Sunday, when It may rise in the Ka-t as usual. "All stars of the first magnitude are here by ordered on half time, all comets sched uled for appearance prior to l'i7 are in structed to tie up wherever they may be on receipt of this notice. St, Peter will allow no one to pass his gate unless bearing a per mit signed by me, and to avoid any possible conflict, all American people are forbidden to die until the strike is over. "Angels will at once organize themselves into direct councils, 'Angels' Celestial l'u ion,' and refuse to play on harps except at a rate of remuneration to be fixed by me. "Commencing right after harvest the Mississippi river will How North and event ually empty into Hudson Hay. I am aware that for that reason the change is deferred until alter harvest to give the people there a chance to move into other states. "Grover Cleveland is hereby removed from the oflice ot president of the United States and the oflice abolished. B. II. Waite of Colorado, and Sequestered A. Pennoyer, of Oregon, will at once proceed to Washing ton and assume charge of affairs until 1 get there. "The United States army is hereby dis banded. The privates and non-commissioned officers are parolled to rtttirn peace ably to their homes to seek honest employment and go ou strikes a. soon thereafter as practicable. The officers will immediately reort to me for beheading. The public will be ijuiikly advised of any further changes in the conduct of the Uni verse." This is signed, "jours for peace, Eugene Ventursoiue I'elw." com.ue. t rxv; cess, iri Winn democratic professors are teaching the theory of free trade the manufacturers show how free trade works. The Call says that the California juto mills have closed down and thrown 400 men, women and girls out of employment, for the simple and sole reason that thev cannot pay American wages and compete with Calcutta labor. It adds, Our free-trade professors may say that the proprietors of the Jute factory wanted larger profits than the Industry could pav, but the tact that a plant which cost f;tmi,iVm stands Idle is a reasonable assurance that In this case the employer is not closing down of his own will, The real truth is that w ith the cut In duties proposed by the Wilson bill, ten cents a day Calcutta labor crowds dollar and a half American labor out. If Calcutta had a vote in the American college of electors. It would, without doubt, be cast as our tree-trade, professors might direct, Free trade is good for the other country, but lit lo short of suicide for us. Fortu nately the genuine free trader Is now com ing to he considered as a kind of a crank. His work is less noisy, but perhaps more deadly than that ol the bomb-thrower. With the closing of the session of the Chautauqua Assembly which was as success ful as could have been expected from the disadvantages under which the committee labored, there conies the question of mak ing it a permanent orgauitution. This In volves much work and the laylngofa founda tion so broad that Its existence w ill not be threatened at any time by anv misunder standing or dispute over indefinite points. Among these are denoniiuationalism, the relation of the church to the secular in control and progrMn, transportation, (dace of meeting, linanciul backing andottUers who will have control. It is to he h :qed that the committee can cope with all these and other important iucstions which will arise during their deliU'rations in such a way as to assure an assembly broud gauged, influential and permanent.

The power to pardon certainly ought to be taken from such men as Pen noyer.

The Sunday Welcome, commenting on the diccusflion now pending in some of the papers of the state, nays: It would Beem as though with the strike trouhle, and the tarif fight, and the Oriental war, and the cholera, and other minor topics to discus", the Oregon editors could find enough to do without discussing who will be the next United Slates senator from Oregon when all of them, and everybody else, know al ready. But here are a dozen papers pub lishing a statement that the next legislature may elect Mr. D. P. Thompson, or ex-Senator Corbett, or Mr. Sol Hirsch, or Mr. C. W Fulton, or Mr. Thomas H. Tongue. 0, well, why not add to the list? There are Hon. binger Herman, and Hon. W. E. Ellis, and Harry Miller, and Timothy Talk ing Ceer, and Judge Fee, and Mr. Ander son, and ex-(Jovemor Moody, and ex-postmaster Gilbert, and Senator Dawson, and Col. J, 13. Eddy, and Senator Benjamin Franklin Alley, and John C. Leasure and a multitude of other great and good men, who if it was thrust upon them would serve the people of Oregon in the senate with great ability. But it is rather Idle talk to discuss the matter, when everybody knows that if he lives Mr. Dolph will succeed himself. Chas. H. Dodd, the well-known hardware and agricultural implement dealer of Port land, says in the American Economist: In Iftrl we bad absolute men employed in our business forty-five, and these forty-five re mained with us until Octsber, 1WS, when business fell down to such a.i extent that we cut them down to forty. April 1, 18!H. we cut the men down to twenty-three. This gives the standing exactly of the house to day. In 1 w ith a capital of half a mil lion we employed forty-live hands. The same capital, at the close of l-!)3, could only give employment to forty hands. The same capital in can only employ twenty- three hands. In addition to this we have been obliged to cut off six branch houses which, in 1W, yielded good returns; but made a loss in left's and the continuance of them in 191 would have been ruinous, Comment is unnecessary and the figures stand for themselves. The articles we have manufactured and sold are agricultural im plements, every one of which were manu factured in the slates of New York, Ohio and Illinois and fitted up and finished here.

Usdkb the title of "If the Tariff is Post poned" the Globe-Democrat says: Post ponement of final action on the tarill'bill to December would mean death to the bill, It would mean this because the overwhelm ing majority w hich the republicans are sure to gain in the congressional elections would be accepted by congress as a mandate from the people to stop tarill' tinkering. The re publican majority will come in any event, and it will be larger if the bill is postponed than if it be passed at this session. A fail ure to pass any bill before the election, whether this failure Were due to the defeat of the measure or to its being put off to the next session, would be worse for the party in the canvass than the enactment of a more mischievous bill than this one, bad as this is. A VOICE FROM OREGON. Senator Dolph, addressing the senate on the tariU'eituation on the O'th of June, and before the full election returns were known, said: "Some of my associates have been kind enough to speak for Oregon this morn ing, but Oregon does not need any one to The Railway Age for July 13 contains summary of the railroads which have gone into the hands of receivers or been sold un der foreclosure In the first six months of 1894, which shows a total of twenty-three lines with 2,988 miles of road, a funded debt of $121,813,000, capital stock $1.',258,000, and total capitalization 1:0,101,000. This brings the totals of roads in the hands of receivers on June 30 to 152 lines, with -13,000 miles of track and almost $2,500,000,01X1 of capitalization. During the same s'x months sixteen roads have been sold under fore closure, having 1,310 miles of line and an aggregate capitalization of $71,022,000. Italv has decided to send anarchists to an island in the lied Sea, and will take the risk of the wave;, rolling apart to give them a roadTay to the main land. Next year is the time set by the constitution for a census of the state. The provisions of the constitution and law governing this im portant work are as follows: Sec. 5 Article IV of the constitution of Oregon provides that the legislative assem bly shall every ten years following lxi,', cause an enumeration lo be made of all the population of the state. The legislature, following the directions of the feregoing, have made provisions in chapter III of the annotated law of Oregon, page 1071, as to who shall do this, what he shall do and w hen he shall do it. The duty devolves upon the county as sessor to begin the work of enumeration on the 10th day of May and to make out an enumeration roll in the following form . One column each for Legal voters ; Males 21 and upwards; Males under 21 and over 10; Males under 10. Females of 18 and upwards; Females under 18 and over 10; Females under fen; The number of acres under cultivation The number of bushels of wheat raised during the preceding year; The number of bushels of oats raised; The number of bushels of hurley and rye; The number of tons of hay; The number of pounds of wool ; The number of ounces of gold dust; The number of bushels of corn ; The number of sheep; The number of hugN; The number of horses; The number of cattle; The number of pounds ol tobacco; The number of bushels of potatoes: The number of bushels of apples ; The number of feet of lumber; The number of barrels of salmon ; The number of baskets of oysters; The number of mules; The number of pounds of cheese and but ter. The assessor returns these rolls to the county clerk, who makes a copy of them to be kept In his ofTlce and another to be filed with the secretary of state. There are heavy penalties attached for a failure on the part of either of these oflicers to do his duty and for the assessor wbo falsifies the record.
