There it s perfect undemanding between Mr Blaine and Mr Harrison, Mr Harrison understand thai Mr DLin woulj like to be president, and Mr lllaiue undera'anda that Mr Harrison yearns tor a secsnd term. The Ohio republicans art new much in favor of stealing Brice's seat In the senate. If there Is any kind of a fraud the Ohio repub licans are not in favor of, it is jret nncata logued The Woodburn Indemtm is going al ter the republican ring at Salem with a very hot poker. It the Indtftndtnt shall have the pluck and perseverance to hunt out the secret history oi the doings of the court house ring In that town republicans end democrats alike will be astounded. Signs of the approach of congress it visi ble now in Washington in many ways, but particularly in the arpearance of the familiar faces M senators and members who have served their constituents ia previous sessions. The new representatives are observed walking about the toao, "viewing the public buildirgs ana the sights ol the streets, strolling through the halls of the capitol, setting foot 01 the new carpets and trying the vacant chaiis. Washington has now put on I s best attire to welcome the assembling statesmen. The Ortgoman, s few days ago said that democrats lave a sovereign contempt lor newspspers". This statement is too broad. It ia trae only in part. For a paper that would, for a consideration, change its views absolutely, and in a day, upon so importent a question as the tariff, without being ablete give a tea ton worthy of the name, the demo crats have the supremest contempt. But as to their love for newspapers in general, we have the testimony of such lending republi cans as CUrkson, Quay, Dudley and Reed to the effect that democratic papers all over the country are far more liberally supported by their party than republican papers. Demo crats have a sovereign contempt tor newspapers that ara false to the best inteiesta of the people. The Portland Htatc verjr forcibly aavs: It Is trje many manufactured articles are cheaper now than when the tariff on the same was lower, but that fact Is not due to the result ol the tariff, whose tend ency always It to raise the price of g'wJa but to the Improved facllU'cs of manu facturing. Inventions, labur saving ma chinery and skilled workmanship have all contributed toward lyerlnjf the prire ol manufacturing articles which even the hlh McKinley t.ul.1 cannot bring down to the old price. To claim that a high tar lit reduces the price of goods U a Hat contradiction ol facts an absurdity that cannot be reconciled with the object of protection. Notwithstanding the incon sistency involve-! In the plea some repub lican advocates of protection claim that by Increasing the price of goods, so as to keep out foreign competition, the price to the home consumer Is actually made lower than It waa before the act was passed. It la not this kind of consistency that Is a jewel. i The Tammany Club, of Portland, will celebrate Jackson's Day (the eight of Jan uary) In true democratic style. It Is pro posed to invite all the democratic clubs of the state. Barney Goldsmith, chairman of the democratic sta'.e central committee will assemble the state central committee on that day. He proposes to mobilize his forces and get them ready far active work when the state campaign opens in the spring. With the many advantages that democits hare they ought to elect one or both congressmen and a working msjoiity in.the legislature. The young men of the the country just coming Into the right ot anflrage, are largely uniting themselves with the democratic party. The tariff re form and tariff reduction sentiment that is rapidly finding a lodgment In the minds of republican farmers and wage workers will contribute to sell the voting force of the democratic party next June. A Billion Dollar Congress and a Million Dollar leg islature ought, (and we believe wi!l,)drlve two thousand republicans in this state out of their old party Into the democratic fold. Let every democrat, then, put his shoulder to the wheel for the work of the next campaign. Tie Capital Journal has been giving the masons why It is a republican paper. It aii.ys It favors "free sugar and la tt erefore a republican of the "strictest sect." Grest Scott I 1 (Maiver, we mean,) what a fall from the pedestal of protection. Let us see. When a democratic paper announces tself as being In favor ol free binding twine, free jute tacks, free wool, or some other article the whole pack of republican or gans poun:e upon it and denounce It as a free trade paper. The ratiocination by which these organs arrive at this conclu sion Is as follows: "The democrats are in favor of free wool; therefore they are free ttadera." Applying thlt simple method of reasoning to the Capita! Journal we have this: The Capital Journal is a republican paper. It Is In favtfr ol "free sugar therefore It Is a free trader. Being a republican, republi cans are therefore IVee traders. But let us see. The Journal is in favor of free trade In sugar, but favors high protection for wool. Sugar is a southern product and woo! h said to be mainly a r.orthern product. Therefore the Journal Is In farr of free '.rg.de In southern pro ducts and high protection for northern pro due's, liuvjrvrr arri-ji-l tit, Hit htter it m dcef fe.tal l(l.(k Doubt m longer esUls as to the politics eomplrxiun of die incoming legislature of New York. That it will re democratic in both branches is definitely settled ly the declaration cf the Dutclieta county Board of Canvasser that Osborne, t!rm. had received 1 84 plurality 1 that coun'y over Dcane, Kep Tbis t;ive Osborne a'plurali'y of 14 in the Fifteenth district. It U it c prevalent opinion among politician of botr. parties that the State Board of Can vassers will decid-that votes cast far Sherwood in the Tweniy-ieventh district, arc null, as the fact of his ineligibility had been promul gated by the attorney general before the election took place, and canno, therefore be considered. Oa this basis 'only votes for eligible cnnd.Ja'ci can be canvassed, and the certificate of elec'ion must be UsueJ to Walke the democrat. The senate will then stand: democrats, 16; republicans, 15. independent, Dr Ddards, I The casting vote of the lieu'enant governor will give (he organization of the senate to the Democrat!, if Dr Edwards should vote with the repunlicans, which is not certsin. This cslcnlation leaves to the senate itsel ' the ascertainment and decision in the case ot Peck, of Syracuse, who is alleged to be a citizen of Canada, though it is very possible that lbs State Board ol Canvassers may take cognizance. I lie assembly is expected 10 contain 67 demociats to 61 republicans. , It is no: believe l in official circles tha Governor Hill will take hi seat in the senate until relieved by the inauguration of Governor Flower, though no information on that point Us been given out froa the executive clumber. TIIK FEOEIUL JtUrGKSHI The Salem Souttml Is seriously oVJett rg to the appointment of Soicplt Slmno to the federal bench. It nlo objected to Mr Cyrus L!ph when he was suggested. It also objected to Senator Allen. It ob jected to all these men, and the list might be Indefinitely extended, because they sre corporation al'.orneys. Very true, but where la a prominent republican lawyer or politician who Is not1 Not one can be found. The Journal professes to be a re publican paper, and at the same lime a irlend ot the people. Nothing can better Illustrate the fact that a paper or a man cannot be both ot these. Any republican who will be appointed to the fed era judgeship will be a corporation attorney There Is no question about that. As long as that I settled, It might as well be Mr Simon as any one else, especially as long m he has more brains than any of the rest oilhem. Oregon has two "corporation lawyers" In the senate: Dolph, an attor ney for the Union Taclflc, and Mltchcll.an attorney for the Northern raciiTc. The republicans need another corporation at torney on the federal bench, and they will have him, too. The Chicago Tritnne, the leading republican journal ot the West, saldihe day before Ilarrlson'a nomination that it the ticket should be Harrison and Morton, It would be "a combination ot railroad and boodle." So It was; that was what won the election ; that Is what la making these appointments. The only possible way to keep "corporation attor neys" oQ the bench Is to defeat the repub lican parly and then we kre not sure ot doing so. Evening Telegram, IT WILL Bs UKSVEU.

I think he Is very wvll liked wherever he Is known, but I don't know how widely he Is known there.

"Do ytu think It will be a sharper Issue than the tariff.'' "Oh, It won't be an Iius at all; every one wants an honest dollar. Both par'.ks will have to declare for it." "Do ;oa think Cleveland' conservative views on silver have strengthened his chances for the nomination next fall?" Not that particularly his great popu larity Is due to his all-around ability. I understand there Is a sort of combination of certain politicians down east against him, but I don't believe they can override the demand ot the people."

Here is what a New York paper tajsof the business cl the country under the work ings of the McKiolcy bill: "When it is appreciated that the volume o business of this country, as shown by bank clearing, fell off f 1, 000,000,000, or 1 1 per cent, in the six months succeeding the passage of the McKinley bill; that in New York city alone tbere nas been a decline of 33 per cen in the amount of new buildings, and that the consumption of pig-iron shows a decline ol 35 per cent, it becomes clear that there rat been a considerable check to the prosperity and business cf the United Stales since the pass age of this much criticised bill." These figures tell their own itory, and it is a fearful showing. It is a showing that will defeat the republican party In the next election It is a mountain of disaster that will surely destroy its authors. It w ill topple over upon the party in '93.

Is Secretary Bialne In revolt against the administration ukase regarding .the re election of Senator Sherman? Appear ar.ces indicate that he Is, and cx Gov, For aker, who la here In attendance upon the meeting ot the republican national com mittee, held today, while he relu ;es to talk for publication, loses no opportunity lo let his personal friends understand that Mr Blaine has promised him his aid In the fight he Is making against Sherman. In conse quence ot the effect of the free champagne which was plentiful all day around the ho tel at which the republican committee held Its meeting, one ot Foraker's friends re lated the following as the Blaine-Forsker program: "You know, ot course, that Bialne dislikes Sherman and will be glad to see him end his public catecr by being deleated for the senate; but you probably do not know that there Is yet a stronger Incentive tor Blaine to combine with For sker, and that Is lo prevent Ohio sending a McKinley delegation to the republican nominating convention next year. Mc Kinley Is Blaine's pet aversion and how ever the senatorshlp contest may end.For aker has undertaken, In exchange for Blaine's Influence against Sherman to con trol the state delegation to the national convention and to prevent the name ot McKinley being presented to that conven tion." Chairman J S Clarkson, of the republi can national committee, has always rather prided himself on being known as a "prac tical politician," and It the story that Is be ing tcld ol his action concerning the de cision of the committee as to the next n ertlng place ot the republican national convention be true.he Is certainly the most ''practical" politician ever at the head of a national committee. The story Is that Mr Clarksco let It be known to the leading men In the delegation from the compe ting cities, that he would like to know In writing, how much their delegation could guarantee as a republican campaign con tribution next year, and that he also In formed them that he Intended using his Influence, which they well knew was all powerful, to have the committee decile In favor ot holding the convention In the city which promised the largest campaign con trlbution . It Is further said that was act urlly done by the several delegations or parts of them, and that the decision made this afternoon was really In favor of the el'y which had through Ita delegation given a written guarantee of a larger cash contribution ti the republican campaign fund than was offered by any ot Its com petitors. What think you ot that "practi cal" politics? And the man from whose "practical" brain' this very "practical" plan W4i evolved was elected by unanimous vote of the committee to succeed to the vicrr.cy In the chairmanship made by Senator Quay's resignation. A worthy succeisor, Indeed. The cares of administration may be great and pressing, but Mr Harrison does not forget to' "cast an anchor to windward" In the propitiation of the Indiana "nlgget" vote. One of them D I Roberts, ol Evansvllle has been appointed recorder ol the General Land OiTice, to take the place made vacant by the resignation of the negro preacher who went back 10 In diana for the openly avowed purpose of aiding lo get a Harrison delegation front that state. All sorts ot Improbable stories concern ing the speakership contest are being told here for the purpose of aiding or Injuring this or that candidate, but there has really nothing occurred here during the week to either encourage or discourage any one of the candidates or his friend, although It Is believed that something may have taken place In.N'ew York city during the latter part of last week, when several of the can didates were over there, that may later on have an Important bearing upon the result; but even that Is supposition, for the con ferences which took place In New York were secret and none of those who attend ed any of them care to say at this time what was done. It Is now apparent that the majority of thn members of the House will not arrive In Washington until after Thanksgiving day; therefore that the speakership fight will have to wait unt 1 the turkey, etc, is disposed of befoie It can get down to business. It Is said. that some of the republican representative will make a strong protest against giving ex-Speaker Reed the re publican nomination for speaker. When they do, It will be time enough to believe It Ttirr was tint a alnvle rrnahllfin In -- - n - ' - r the last House who was not afraid of Mr Reed, and If there is one such elected to the new House he has not been heard of here.

Hill spent Friday and Saturday In Washington arranging for quarters for the congressional session. There seems to be some reasonable ground for hope that the Oregon Pacific is beginning to see daylight, and that within s reasonable time in the future the road can be pushed to an Eastern connection. It would seem that there ia room for this road, so far removed from other transcontinental lines ; bnt its real ultimate terminus will be at Portland or Astoria, instead of Yaqaina bay. That part will do some business. and doubtless an increasing business year by year, but the logic of the skua- lion in guiJident warranty lur wis predic tion that all transcontinental lines reaching the Northwest will eventually converge at Portland and the mouth of the Columbia. .telegram, home day Portland will wake up and learn that there are other places in Oregon beside the present metropolis.

After the Initiatory work was over we all found the way down to the lower hall where we found a sump tuous repast In waiting, to which all did ample justice. Urange was then called to order, and the class waa duly Instructed in the un written work ot the order. The regular order ot business was then taken up. Two propositions fur membership were received, and a large amount ot business was transacted. Many questions that came up were ably discussed, which shows there is a deep interest taken In the affairs of the grange, and many have the ability to discuss any subject which way come up. We have a skillful musi cian who has lust entered mi r ranks, ami with her help we expect to have Eooi0vef e surplus grain, have relumed with t -a .... s : . 1 t htmAmtl ea artr tnai i In I Urn liimm it if music at our meeting this winter, for music has charms that will attract and cause many to ask admission to ou r circle. At the next regular meeting there will be a full set ol officers to elect, and we would I glad to see a full house to select from. I think it would be well to exer cise good judgment in selecting officers, and vote for none who have na fitness for filling any kind of an office. The grange has done a wonderful work for the farmers of our land, by co-operating together we are enabled to get better prices on the goods we buy, so I say stick to the grange lor there is a brighter future before it. It has been in ex Is tance for twenty-five years, and is in better condition now than ever before, for the reports from the different secre taries shows a healthy growth, and it will steadily continue to increase in numbers and extend its influence for all time to come. I think we cannot spend a few of the rainy days to a better ad vantage than visiting some of our neigh boring granges this winter. For by ex changing experience with others we educate ourselves, and thereby become better acquainted with the work before us. We cordially invite all members in good standing to meet with us whenever convenience will admit. Let as use our beet efforts to Induce all who are eligible to join the grange as soon as possible. Tangent alliance was organised in July with 17 members, and is getting: in good shape to begin active work. We held a meeting, ov 25, which was full of in terest. Many remarks were made by those present upon subjects of vital in terest to tho farmer and laboring class of people. we iiave set the Zd Thursday of each month for our regular meetlnsa at 10 o'clock. There are many who will loin the alliance, who do not for some cause become members of any other farmer's organization. The fees for becoming members of the alliance Is 60 cents for men and 25 cents per quarter as dues, women are free. Home ask, why do the farmers go to the trouble of organizing themselves together? I will say it Is for mutual protection. Thev are nressed down and trodden underfoot by all classes of the monied powers. There is no mercy stiown ns by those who have the advantage of belonging to the class of monopolies. They keep grinding us closer and closer until it has become nn- brarabi. so there is left nothing for us only to combine our forces together, and call them to a halt. The farmers and laboring class of people have the power if they will only use it, and well do the oppressors of the poor know it. They stand in dread of what they see coming, with but little means of defence. When once the people who hold the power ol the ballot in their hands, become thoroughly aroused, and can see the chance they have have before them, all the monopolies in the world cannot stop them. S ) great has become their greed for more, they have lost sight of that which is equal and right, and are strain ing every nerve to reduce the condition of the poor man still below where it is now. By the co-operation of the granges and alliances and other kinds ot organ izations, and with five or more votes to their one, there is no reason why such a state of things should exist any longer. No doubt it will be a bard struggle for them to relinquish their hold, but the chances are sooner or later they will have to succumb to the fate that awaits them. If they had been more reason able, there would bave been no cause for the farmers to complain. Rrpobteb.
