Sir Democrat. FRIDAY JULV 29, 1887 A NEW TAPER. The Evening Dsmocrat discusses the matter of organizing a joint stock com pany of leading Democrats ef the stale with a capital stock of $50,000, to pub lish a ftrst-olass morning Democratic daily newspaper at Portland. This matter has been dieoaeeed in en inform at way for several years, but it has never taken definite form. We have ao doubt that a first-class Democratic daily paper, with full associated press dis patches and firet-elasa editorial ability, would be a success. Suoh a paper witb good business management would be come a paying business within a year, and would then grow into a successful business enterprise. It could soon be made to pay a handsome income on the investment. We hope leading Demo crats throughout the state may take this matter up and push it on to suooess. Suoh a paper is sadly needed, as the party in the state is practically without an organ. Suoh a paper would receive very large and liberal support, and art trust those who are moving in the mat ter will push on to success. The New York World aays that the membership of Assembly 39 K. of L., which met at Fall River last week, has fallen from 85,000, one year ago, to 21,- 000, ia round numbers, at the present This district seat seventy-fivs to the Richmond Ganeral As sembly, but will be entitled to only eight at Minneapolis. A bitter fight is anticipated over the election of these dslsgetsa between the adherents of the Club and its opponents. The ot a anu-tradee-uaiouists is m . a . a a. B.

The Forty-sixth has invited the Thirtieth to a picnio next ninth, at which it will return the captured colors. The Governor will have to hurry up witb his mandamus. To a man who hae boys and girls to read, the local newspaper is worth ten timee it j subscription price. A boy or girl will gain more information in a year from the local newspaper than he will in a six months' school. No fam ily should be without a local or county paper. Every citizen should take it. Now is the time to order the Democrat. $2 per year. A committee of 100,beaded by May er Francis, of 8s. Lauis, visited Wash ington City the other day to invito the President to visit that city some time in October. The President accepted. It is said Tuttle will not be there through fear of being "insulted," and Fairobilda will bo conspicuously absent for fear of being "paralyzed." The Das Moines, la., Register hastens to call attention of its partisans to the fast that it would not be politically beneiioial to aaeeesiaete the President for the successor would be a Democrat. Has it come down to as fine a point as that? Bev. William N.

JoRiA!,Lnn Co., Or., July 25,rdll887. Editor Democrat : There are some objections being urged against the prohibitory amendment whioh it to be voted upon Novum bar 8th next : 1. That the state has not the power to prohibit tbe manufacture and sale of alcoholic liquors. 2. There is nothing in tbe onatitu. tion or laws of the state to warrant the calling of a special election on Nov. 8th. (One of my neighbors says he does not think any election will be oalted by the Governor.) 3. The adoption of the amendment would deprive individuals of their per sonal liberty. 4. It is a third party movement. I would like to have the opinion of the Democrat upon these points. Yours, etc, T. W. BatAHT. Without entering into a consideration ef the main question, we cheerfully give our views of the questions proposed. We believe under our system of gov ernment tbe power to prohibit the man ufacture and sale of alcoholic liquors exists either ia congress or the state. In order to ascertain whether congress has suoh power, we look to the consti tution of tbe United States. We find no suoh p)wer delegated to congress in the oonstitution,and, as"tbe powers not delegated to tbe United States by tbe constitution, nor prohibited by it to the states, ate reserved to the etateg re spectively or to tbe people," we oon elude thai tbe power to prohibit the manufacture aad sale of aloobolic li quors is one of the reserve! right or powers of ths states. The Sipre-ee Court hae so decided and that queetion is settled. As to the second objection we need only say that the last legisla ture psseed a law authorizing the Gov tenor to call a special election on the first Tuesday after the first Moadey of November, at which election the pro posed amendments are to be submitted to a vote of the people. (See Bastion Law, 1887, pege 70.) The Governor will call tbe election. Tbe third objeo tion is antwered by saying that the personal rights of individuals are alwaye store or lees given up by individuate in the f irma'iou of governments. As be fore stated the Supreme Court of the United States hae decided that a state hat the power to prohibit. As to tbe voting on tbe amendment biug a third party movent an', we are unable to see bow any one can so understand it. B jth parties, Republicans aad Demo crats alike, voted in the legislature to submit the amendment to the people. It wae not regarded there as a petty qoeitim at all. In faot we think the manoar of its submission has a tendency to weaken rather than etiengtben the third party movement. WAS IT A SWINDLE t It will be remembered that prior to the last Legislature tbe minimum price of school lands in this state wae two dollars per acre. They ha 1 to be ap praised before the state board could sell them. Tbe last Legislature, without much consideration, petted a law, au thorizing tbe state board to sell all school lands at tbe uniform price of one dollar and twenty-five cents per acre without regard to value. From reliable sources we learn that nearly all the surveyed school lands ot tbe state heve alread been sold. It it hinted that thousands of aeree of these lands have already paaeed into tbe bands of foreign speculators. This could only be done through a comprehensive scheme of swindling carried on through perjury and subornation of perjury. It Was certainly a great mistake to thus reduce tbe price of school lands, for many of them being surveyed from time to time are worth as much aa five dollars per acre, and even more than that in tome eases. Under this law no man can buy more than 320 acres, but, it is -suggested that foreign speculators from California and other plaose have sent men into Oregon to buy tbeee lands for them. If such it the case it behooves the state board to keep their official eyee very wide open and enforce the law rigidly in order to prevent such swindling. People all over tbe state are watching the course of things very closely ,tnd the board would dj well by its conduct to keep itself entirely above suspicion for their is talk of land rings and land grabbers. Let us have tbe old demo cratic vigilance tbet always calls forth the plaudits of the people. mmmmmammmsss Tbe Grand Army Record of Boston bat this sound advice to give : "Many comrades are asking whether the crusade now going on against the President s really on account of hia veto of the dependent pension bill or is a preconcerted political movement in opposition to a Democratic administra tion. Comrades, politics is a dangerous rock, which will surely wreck our or ganization ii we fail to give it a wide berth. "All bands about ship Vf Tbe Grand Army should cease fooling around tbe ragged edge of polities. Either oast out entirely the political devil that bas already shown its blas phemous presence or else tail in and dhow our band in square roan-fashion. It is evident thet there is a political motive in the attack upon tbe Piesident under the guise of Grand Army opposi tion. Notwithstanding tbe fact that it hat been admitted that the President had nothing to do with originating the order for the return of the rebel flags, tbe warfare against him baa been kept up with teeh venom that it bat dis gusted all faif-minded people." The task of keeping both the English aristocracy and the Irish people in a good humor gives Mr. Blaine a chance to display his proficiency in tight rope balancing. Piano nnd Or .in fJtvn Away.
