For Severs,! years the Amerieap people have been
contending against increasing evil, and throughout
this period alarme pr portion ot them have been
casting about for a remedy, and, as if by some
malign influence of occult origin, have contrived
always to bit upon measures tbe effect of which
wag to enhance their sufferings. Perhaps the most
important lesson of tbe past dec. de, ii we would
b u t tako it to heart, is that democratic instituting
are no protection against popular ignorance, but
that, on the contrary, where such ignoranoe exists
among republican communities, the greater the
power of the masses the more calamitous will he
the results of their political action. From the close
o f the war up to the present-time two main caus
es have been in active operation to depress pi oduc
tion, to rob industry-, and to bring about widesp ead
impoverishment. These two ageuci.s are, the cur
rency and the tariff, and between them they are re
sponsible lor all the evils now com pi ined of, out
side of that national debt which he war of the re
bellion necessitated. At ibe present moment the
evils of a depreciated inconvertible currency are
being demonstrated by competent hands through
out the country, hut even now we seldom ln ar
complaints of tbe tariff, and, so inconsistent are
politicians, it not unfrequenl ly happens that a con
vention couples a strong denunciat.on of rag mon
ey with as omphatic an indorsement o f '‘protect
ion to home industry.” It is, however, import
ant that in discussing these twin evils they should
he considered together, since they operate together,
and play into one another's hands perpetually, To
illustrate: Tfie effect of a protective tariff has
been to afford an abnormal and unhealthy stimu
lus to certain branches ot industry, which if left to
natural laws would have grown only as the noeds ol
commerce required them • This abnormal growth
has been gain d at the expense ot the many, who
have been heavily taxed (robbed is perhaps the
better word) to enrich tbo few. hut the curiency
has been actively instrumental in promoting all
the epils accruing from the tariff, for i s effect has
been to render values unstable, to di arrange com
merce, to make legitimate business unsa'e, to fos
ter speculation and gambling. Thus tbe tariff and
the currency together inspired the great e -cess of
over production wnich was mistaken for prosperity
at the time, but which is now beginning.to be seen
or what it really was—the flush o f intoxication,
and not the glow of health. Together these agen
cies produced the wild era of railroad builumg
which came to so disastrous a conclusion iu 1573 ; a
cote usiou precipitated by the farmers crusade,
w i.,-b was at bottom a b iud protest against mis-
under tood causes. The Western farmers felt that
they were not prosper.ng. It was impossible that
they snouid have prospered while their e.-.rniugs
were being reduced on b a ll hinds; lirsi by the cur
rency, which compelled them to buy at greenback
prices and sell at gold prices; and si coud by tho
tariff, which compelled them to pay their neigh
bors a costant bounty for the privilege ot paying
the highest prices for their products. They, how
ever, pitched upon the railroads as ibe cause ot
their sufferings, and thus contribute l to break down
American credit abroad, and hasten the collapse
which must have come sooner or later, eveu « itn-
out their assitanC8- But when that crash came, un.
fortunately wisdom did not come with it Then
began the second delusivt cry— the cry that theie
was not enough currency for the wants of trade,
and that the panacea for anything was inflation.
Thus for the second time the path w as missed, aud
thus the masses who throughout have borne the
brant ot theso mischievous agencies, are commit
ting themselves to a policy the sole possible result
of which can be to intensify all tho evil» oi the
past. At this moment trade in the Eastern States
is laboring nndèr the depression which is the naiu-
ral and inevitable result of over-production—that
over production being itselt the direct consequence
ot tho protective tariff. To cure this it is gravely
proposed, not that the currency should be recog
nized ou a sound basis—but that there should be a
further unlimited issue of paper promises to pay.
The logic ol this programme is peculiar. We are
suflering from speculation and over-production,
and to cure this we are auvUed to increaso the
causes which originated it. An inconvertable cur
rency has already so disorganized business, that the
country is in a state of semi paralysis, and is pro
posed to increase the burden by making tbe curren
cy still more unstable than it is , We o l served not
long since that the intelligence of the nation was
on trial in the ap) reaching lres.dential camp: igu
and assuredly the truth oi this must become more
and m ore obvious to ail who ex .mine thesi.ua ion

of Virginia City has come at h.st. Two-thirds oi
the city is now in smouldering rums. The princi

valuable buildings was in the space ot two short
hours burned to the ground. The tire origin ted
at about bai -past 2 a . m in a small one story lodg
ing h. use on th e east side ot A. street, between
Taylor and Union streets, kept by a woman named
Kate Shay, belter known as crazy Kate. The fire
steam engine was soon on hand as also the hand
engine of fire company No. 4, but all was of no
avail. The progress o f the flames was so great that
before the steamer could get a stream on the fire,
the doom o f the city w as settled. A strong'wind
was blow ing from the west at the time, which car
ried the ¡flames aud burning cinders for hundreds of
met, aud twenty m.mites after the alarm was giv-
t n not less than thirty or forty, buildings were in
flames. Tbe damage is so great,there is no at
tempting to give a detailed account of the losses.

flames is about three-quarters of a mile in length
by a hall mile wide. As the wind was blowing to
ward the northeast the spread ol the tire in the op
posite direction was comparatively slow. Some
thing like a fight was made against it, on the west
side of B. street it crossed over to Taylor and burn

The Oregonian, in its defeat, ronso’ es itself on
tne ground that but a meagre vote lias been cas .
taking th * fact that every Democrat was satisfie
th ;t L ne would be elected, it is more than proba
ble that the stay-at-homes were as largely Iron
the Democratic party as from Ihe Radical , Bu
the failing off of the Rtd icla strength was in Malt
nomnh and the returns in (bis county show tin-
vote is much larger than it was at the special eW -
ti in o f 1873. In that contest. Smith carried Mult
nomah county by near six hundred majority. Mr.
'Varren has earn - d it by about 60. In Marion
Mr. Smith got only about 60 majori’ y, while M ’ .
Warren gets about 400. Yet. with all this change,
he will be the worst beaten candidate that has ev
er run in Orogoo. The vote, wnile it is not fui’,
will be larger than it was at the special election
of 1873, and fully as large as could be expected.
For our Radical friends to console tliemse’ ves that
the full vote was notb. ough tout, and this being
the cause of their defeat, is v e iy p or conso'atio-(
and we here notify them, in the language of one o-
thei r Federal officials, that, on a fair vote, without
Federal corruption fund, Oregon is Democratic by
n >t less than 1.500 and is constantly increasing
This dodge o f off years and light vote has been
worn out, and our Radical friends may as well look
things in the face and take them as they are,
