IGXOMANT.
A man who thinks he knows all
about the tariff and who writes under
the cognomen of "School Boy" in the
Oorvellis Ganttt of last week aska:
"Upon what authotity is the statement
made that the agricultural products of
this country are not protected by the
tariff, but are compelled to. compete
with the pauper labor of all other na
tions?" No, to make this plain, it is
only necessary to go into detail a little.
Wheat is an agricultural product and
under the tariff bill of 1883 there is a
duty of twenty cents per bushel on all
imported wheat, but this duty does not
protect the American wheat grower
any, for the reason that our wheal
growers bare to export their wheat to
Liverpool, the world's market, in order
to find tale for it. Our wheat does not
bring any better price on account of this
duty of twenty cents per bushel laid by
our tariff laws on imported wheat, and
would not bring any better price if this
duty were placed at 100 or 400 cents
per bushel. This is plain, for we do
not import any wheat, but, h we said
before, we send our wheat to the
world's market and are thus brought
into competition with the cheap or pau
per labor of the world. Therefore the
agriculturalist, so far as wheat raising
is concerned, is not protected by oar
tariff laws, The same may be said
With reference to flour, corn beef, pork,
etc
Our ''School Boy" asks again : "If
protection creates high prices and fosters
monopolies, why are manufactured pro
ducts as cheap, if not cheaper now, than
at any other period since the formation
of the government?" This kind of ar
gument) flimsy as it is, ws suppose re
quires an answer. Now if the protec
tion afforded by our tariff law j did not
foster monopolies and create higher
prices than those which ruled at the
time when these tariff laws were passed
then the protection afforded by these
laws was no protection at all, and was
valueless to these manufacturers who
asked congress to protect their infant
industries. The reason why our manu
facturers first asked congress for pro
tection was that English manufacturers,
In consequence of their experience and
other superior advantages, were able to
sell even in American markets cbeajwr
than our on manufacturers could, and
our manufacturers sougkt a monopoly
of the trade through protection. Bat,
if thtough protection oar manufacture
have been enabled to engage so largely
in the business, and have so improved
the machinery used in their manufactur
ing establishments that they are now
enabled to sell as cheaply as the Eng
lish then why should they object to a
reduction of tho tariff. If protection
makes the protected article cheaper,
then with how little reason does the
manufacturer of that article aik that it
be protected? Verily "School Boy" is
a school boy, or he would not submit
such an argument. There is no jus
tice now to ask the people of the whole
country to submit to the burden of a
high tariff to afford protection to those
who say that American manufactured
goods can now be sent to free trade
England and sold in competition with
goods manufactured by the pauper labor
of Europe.
"School Boy'1 sgaiu asks ! "If the
manufacturer grows rich under protec
tion, why have so many become bank
rupt within the last two years, and why
have so many factories been either com
pelled to shut down entirely or to rnn
on one-half or one-quarter timtf Well,
did the protection which these manu
facturers have bad fur twenty-five years,
and which they still enjoy, lead them
into baokruptacy, and compel) them
to shut down? If so, why do they
still cry for protection? All this argu
ment of "School Boy" refutes the very
proposition out of which it springs and
which it is adduced to support. The
truth is the war tariff is too high for a
period of peace. It has so stimulated
and fevered tho manufacturing indus
tries of tho country as to result in over
production which is the cause of present
cheap prices. And no tariff, however
high it may be, will or can protect
against over production. Wo hope
"School Boy" will oonsider this subject
in the light entirely of an economic
question, and not a party question and
he will soon emerge from the darkness
by which he is surrounded.
That if you want to publish notice of
int3ntion to make final homestead
proof, the notice will be published in
the Democrat if you request the Rag
iater at the land office to so order.
This app'ies to both the Roaeburg and
Oregon City Districts.
In all great contests Ohio oan be re
lied upon to give a republican victory ;
in lesser ones it is seldom uncertain.
Since 1885, in thirty-eight contests,the
Republicans have carried the State
thirty-two times and the Democrats six
times. These figures settle the political
status of Ohio pretty conclusively, and
only too plainly suggest that when the
Democrats wage a successful contest in
it, they do it only because of a republi
can blunder.
Fit zh ugh Lee is right; we are fight
ing the battles of peace. But some
how it is bard work to convince John
Sherman and Geo. Frisbie Hoar that
the war is over.
nra suswxs,
The reasons the Democrats were de
feated in Ohio were, fret, that Ohio is
naturally a Republican state by 25,000
msjority. Second, that while the Re
publicans were divided on the liquor
question, the course of Gov. Hoadley
in the canvass divided the Democrats on
the ssme question and caused the Dem
ocrats to lose about as many votes as
the Republicans did. Third,tbat while
it must be true that John Sherman's
course in appealing to sectional hate to
arouse Republicans lost that party many
votes without gaining a single one from
the Democrats, yet this advantage was
fully overbalanced by the factional di
visions among the Democratic leaders
of the state. The facts show that both
parties in Cincinnati, Columbus and
other plaees attempted various schemes
of fraud, which set each equally back in
the estimation of alt good, law-abiding
citizens. We ere not of thoss who be
lieve that Democratic dissatisfaction
with Cleveland's administration had any
important bearing on the result. Of
course there are disappointed Democrats
who may have voted against the Dem
ocrats because they have failed to ob
tain positions under the new adminis-
tialioa, but this number is fe v and of
comparative little influence.

Thinking a few lines from thh place
might be of intereat to your readers, I
will endeavor to give you a brief de
scription of the Agency and the business
connected with the same.
There are about nine hundred Indians
on the Reservation, which was shown
by the census of last year. They are
of five different tiibes,namely,the Warm
Springs, Wasooee, Piutee,Teninoes and
John Days. The Warm Springs are
the Indians with whom the treat was
made. They number about 250. The
Wasooee who were next to be placed
on the Agency number about 400. The
other tribes are stragglers that came
here of their own accord. Three lan
guages are spoken on the Reservation,
the Wasooee, Teninoee and John uays
speaking the same language. The Warm
Springs and Ptutes each have a lan
guage of their own, although some of
the Waseoes speak the Warm Spring
language.
In regard to the schools, there are
two, one at the Agency ,anJ one twenty
miles distant, which is principally for
the Warm Springs, as tbsy do not like
to mix and mingle with the other tribes.
There are 216 children between the ages
of 6 and 16. The schools are boarding
schools. The employee of each school
are, teacher, salary, $300, industrial
teacher, $800, matron, $180,seim stress.
$480, cook, $820. W. H. Brunk,
formally of Albany, is teacher at the
school twenty miles away. The em
ployee for the Agency are clerk, salary,
$800, physician, $800, carpeuter, $720,
farmer, $600. That is all the employes
that are allowed on the Agency, except
the police, which are Indians, also in
tei preter,$300-
In regard to civilization, there is
about one out uf every twenty that
speaks a little English. They all speak
the Chinook. There are a few who
have attended the Forest Grove school,
and have learned to read and write.
A few young ladies play the piano and
sing nicely ,but they are excef,tious. The
children who attend the Agency school
are small, bnt aa soon as tbey learn our
language, tbey are sent to the Slem
Training school. Tbs scholars were
sent from here last week. Tb y num
bered nineteen, which is the most that
ever went from this Agency. There
remains iu the two schools about seventy
children. It is a very difficult matter
to set the Indian to send their children
to school. The way the schools are
kept op, if the Agent knows of a child
that ought to be at school be sends a
policeman after it.
The goods received from the Depart-
f ment for this year are arriving now.
They consist of about twenty-five four
horse loads from The Dalle. The
goods are issusd to tbs Iodisns, with
the exception of wagons, harness and
plows, which are sold to she Iodiaos at
cost prices, and pai 1 for in work, such
as freighting, etc.
The authority which governs the In
dians consists of eleven police, three of
whom act as Judges. Tbey try si I
cansee of misdemeanor, and say what
the fine shall be. The Agent has the
right to take exceptions to any of their
ruling. The salary of the police is $12
per month for the three Judges, and $8
for the privates. They have the same
right to make an arrest that a Consta
ble does.and any one resisting sn officer
is punished. Tbey wear uniforms and
badges.
In regard to farming, Indians farm
on a smsll scale,some not farming more
than one or two acres. Of course there
are a few exceptions. Some few may
have as much as ten acres. The soil
is very productive. In small tracts
along the creeks the Indians raise nice
gardens with little work. Tbey seem
to like stock raising better than any
other industry, as there is little labor
attached to it, but the snow of last
winter killed a large number of their
horses. It is estimated about 3009
head died from starvation.
The Indians are making more prep
aration for winter this fall than ever
before. Some have small stacks of
straw and hay for winter. The govern
ment furnishes tools for tbem to wozk
witb, and all the work about the Agen
cy that they can do, tbey are given the
preference. There is considerable more
work around au Agency than one would
suppose. The mail U received here
three times a week. It is from Hay
Creek, on the Prinesville and The
Dalles road. There is talk of a line of
stages being established between Prines
ville and The Dalles by way of the
Agency, as it is a nearer route.

The Willamette Temperance Alliance
held its regular monthly meeting at the
TJ. P. Church on last Tuesday. Reci

by Melvin Bamford and Elmer Hamil
ton, after which Rev. Judy, of Sbedd,
was introduced, and for an hour enter
tained the audience with a yery accep
table lecture, vividly setting forth the
evils of intemperance, and remarks
Store made by Mr. Barter, A. M. Ache
son and others. The evening was en
joyable and profitable to the temper
ance people.
Tbs good weather still continues and
farmers are rejoioing. Perhaps more
gtain has been sown this fall than any
other fall preooding. Several are still
busy seeding.
Mrs. Brown and Miss Libbie Irvine,
of Albany,spent several days last week

We know that Hiram Klum has a
No. 1 hotel at Sodaville and he and
his estimable lady deeerve a good
patronage. We hope he will have
good success In his undertaking.
We know that the crowds are small
at Sodaville on account ol the weather
being too rough, although the sods
water is strong and good as ever, a id
we know that there are going to be
two or three weddings come off in or
rear Sodaville in the near future.
James Stimson and wife are visit

We know that when the tide comes
In the waves wilt roll on.
And we know it la getting late In
the season for Sunflowers and Rose
buds, but nevertheless they will be in
bloom all the fall, for there has been
no frost to wither their heads.
Business is looking up a little in
Lebanon. The price of grain is com

We know that the health about
Rock Hill is exceedingly good for
the time of year.
We do know that Jchn Chinamen

Some time ago I was sitting at work
when my attention was called to s noise
at the gate. I looked out and saw
what at first reminded me of Darwin's
theory of the human race ; but when it
approacbedand a broad grin spread over
its countenance, I recognized an old
friend, the original Pond Lily, bnt
looking more like a wilted pumpkin
blossom than a lily. Soon after a large
bird was seen folio ving in said Lily's

from the bouse, till Lily started back to
Beaver Creek, when it came aa before

A SCIENTIFIC FACT.

1 Royal" the only Baking Powder tree fmm
Lime and Absolutely Pure.
Lime is the serious defect found in most of tho cream
of tartar baking powders. As a matter of fact, chem
ical analysis has found it in all such powders except the
" Royal." Its presence is caused by tho use of adulterated
cream of tartar in tho effort to reduce their cost of pro
duction. Lime adds to the weight while it detract from the
strength of the baking powder. It also renders the food
less wholesome, giving rise to dyspepsia and kindred ailments.
Baking powders containing lime produce less leavening gas,
and therefore iu use are more expensive than a first-class,
pure article.
The Koyal Baking Powder is made from cream of tartar
that is first specially refined and made chemically pure. No
tartrate of lime or other impurity can find its way into the
" Royal," and to this fact its great gaperiortty in strength,
wholesomeness, and keeping quality is duo.
All this adds greatly to the cot of manufacturing the
Royal Baking Powder, but as all its ingivdimt arc selected
and prepared with the same precise care snd regardless of
labor or expense, an article is produced that is free from
every extraneous substance u absolutely pure." Nor does
it contain any ingredients except khoie necessary to make
a pure, wholesome, and perfect baking powder.
Professor McMurtrie, late ehciumt in chief to the U. S.
Department of Agriculture, alter analyzing the various
baking powders of the market, testifies to the absolute
purity of that used in the Royal Baking Powder as follows :
"I have examined the cream of tartar manufactured by
the New York Tartar Company and used by the Royal
Baking Powder Company in the manufacture of their baking
Powder, and find it to be perfectly pure, and free from lime
in an v form.
