PRESIDENT HARRISON'S OPINIONS
President Harrison's message,
delivered to congress on Monday,
although quite lengthy, contains
no useless words and touches in
telligently on a large number of
important questions now before
the people. He calls attention to
the economical management of
ech of the several departments of
the government, and congratulates
the people that no money is being
squandered uselessly in any ot the
varied channels through which the
enormous sums in the treasury
find their way back to the public.
He speaks of friendly relations
with all foreign powers, and is con
fident that peace will not be dis
turbed, although serious matters,
such as the Behring sea dispute
are ' involving considerable argu
ment and correspondence. He is
confident that the rights of the
United States in the sealing
ground seeded by Russia will be ac
corded by Great Britain before the
beginning of another sealing sea
son.
He thinks the McKinley bill
should be given a fair trial; that its
workings will result in the fullest
"benefits to all our people, and that
the act has been unjustly assailed
' as tending to raise prices of neces
sities; that the -policy embodi
ed in such legislation will secure
ui "large and more profitable par
iicipation in foreign trade." He
asks the people not to be influenc-
' ed against the law on account of
; the hubbub raised in Europe over
it; that the people of England,
'France, Germany, and so forth,
are ' studying their own interests,
not ours, in growling about the bill
He thinks the result of the Fan
American deliberations at Wash
ington last winter will be of great
importance in obtaining more in
; timate relations, both politically
Jnd commercially, with the South
' American republics.
He feels an interest in the inde-
"endence of the people of the
' Congo, .and hopes the civilized
;: powers "will unite in suppressfn
; what is left of the slave traffic and
' in discouraging the wholesale im
portation of ardent spirits into a
"wild . region in ''darkest. Africa"
which is now being rapidly depop
ulated by the use of alcoho
: amongst the various tribes.
"? He depreciates the present war-
t; " fare going on between several of
'; ' the" Spanish-American republics
' ' and thinks the United States ought
' to use its iufluence on behalf of
peace, without-making itself- too
fficious.
' He has proposed to the British
and Chinese governments a plan
. to regulate the passage of Chinese
laborers across our northern and
- southern boundaries, with a view
to stopping the present stealing of
' ' coolies across our borders.
' ' Samoan autonomy as a Kingdom
' ' has been reorganized, with an eye
'to the welfare of Ameriean pol
"; icies and interests on the Pacific
jocean.
Recommends the- present con
' ' '.jgress to repair some injustices to
1 the Honolala Kingdom : growm;
:4xit of the workings of the McKin
ity bill.
He believes our government
should take kindly to Italy's invi
"4 ,iatidn and participate in the Uni
; 'ersai Meridian Conference with a
r"-iew to adopting a uniform stand
' jtxd ot time and longitude through
' -iiut the world.
' " He is gratified with our rapidly
growing relations with Mexico, re
' suiting from the building of Amer.
' " fcan" railroads : into that country,
' .'.''and recommends that our mission
' r Jn the City of Mexico be raised to
(he firt class. r'.'M
lb cash receipts in the natipnal
treasury for the la3t fiscal year
were $464,000,000; expenses of the
government $358,500,000 leaving
a balance of $105,500,000 to be ap
plied to the sinking lund. "
The increased circulation - of
money among the people owing to
the policy of the present secretary
of the treasury and the enormous
decrease in the national debt dur
ing the past nineteeen months are
considered matters of congratula
tion. Receipts Irom internal rev-
. ' J i- it.
enue nave increaseu uurmg me
year nearly $12,000, while the cost
of collecting it has been reduced
$90,000.
Our new navy is growing vigor
ously. Nine new vessels ot the
at Aat. natlern have been put in
commission during the year, and
five more will be launched , by
spring. TJie influence of their
prestige has already been felt"
abroad.
He speaks of personal violence
and abuse having been ottered
quite frequently to postmasters
selected by him in some portions
of the South, and has advised the
Postmaster General to abolish
offices where appointees not in
fault will not be allowed to peace
fully perform their duty. In con
nection with the postal depart
ment Mr. Harrison congratulates
the people that the mail service
can no longer be used as a tool for
lottery concerns in defrauding the
public
In regard to the Indians, he says
that the policy of allottment ot
lands in severalty to the various
tribes and . the consequent reduc
tion of unnecessary lauds given up
to the savages has been followed
so tar as laws will permit.
He is glad that every useless ob
stacle in the way of honest set
tiers making homes on govern
ment land " has been removed and
the former policy of looking upon
every settler as a fraudulent land-
grabber has been discontinued un
der the preseut administration
The Land Office department is rap
dly catching up with its business:
As to pensions,' the president
savs " all deserving beneficiaries
should obtain their just dues from
the government without delay, but
he dislikes special pension bills.
He thinks the Mormon question
is rapidly being settled in Utah by
swamping the Mormons with a
large flow of law abiding immigra
tion. He is gratified by the letter
of President Woodruff of theMor
man church, in which the prelate
recommends the discontinuance of
plural marriages, but doesn't put
much faith in Morman protesta
tions, so long as the Latter Day
Saints believe in the divinity of
having more than one, wile.
The farming interest he con
siders has been attended to by the
last congress in the matter of in
creased duties on foreign farm
products, which have stimulated
home effort in the direction of
raising produce heretofore largely
imported from Canada, and also
through the policy of Department
of Agriculture. In this category
he places wool growers and raisers
of live stock. He thinks the pre
judice against our beet and pork
across the Atlantic is gradually
disappearing on account of the
efforts of our government towards
showing the absolute health and
wholesomeness of American meats,
and that a irood market may- be
relied on in England, Germany
and France when the prejudice
has been removed.
The cultivation of sugar beets,
the President says, is proven to be
a complete success, and the" area
of sugar beet - production - extends
over a very large proportion of the
country's surface. As a conse
quence the production of domestic
sugar will steadily increase despite
the fact of the duty having been
taken off the foreign article, asthe
bounty given by the government
Will stimulate ; the "industry" Avhile

He. suggests that the steamers
plying between Ban Francisco and
Australia be subsidized, 'as the
balance of trade is largely in our
favor and there is . danger of the
terminal being shifted from the
American port to Vancouver, B. C,
in which case a trade netting us
$10,000,000 a year would be di
verted to' English channels. He
wants our coast lines fortified; is
gratified that "another belt of states
stretches from the Atlantic to the
Pacific," through the admission pf
Idaho, and Wyoming; thinks the
salaries of the U. S. district judges
should not be less than $5,000 per
annum; wishes to see a national
bankruptcy act become a law;
that a better and safer system of
coupling trains may be adopted by
our railroads in oraer tnat tne 55,uuu

It transpires that Cleveland got
about 4,000 votes in 1881 which
were fraudulent, and that he never
carried New York state. These ;
voters were inmates of poorhouses,
ana as sucn were oy iauiMra.1- i

homes. Elaine was, inereiure,
rightfully President, ' instead of
Cleveland even without counting
in such states as Mississippi, Ala
bama and Arkansas, where no
election as provided for in the con
stitution was held , at all. Ot
course it is rather late now to make
stir about" the matter, as the
"stuffed prophet" has served his
term and gone home, but republi
cans must keep their eyes peeled
for illegal democratic voting in
New York in 1892, not that the

that strictly legal elections shall
be held in all parts of our land.
The Australian ballot system is go
ing to put a stop to all such fraudu
lent elections and for this reason
finds considerable opposition in
certain democratic hot-beds. '

New York capitalist holds a mort

and neglects or refuses to pay how
can he be made to do so? - Jf the
tax bore equally and justly on
home and foreign "capital there
would not be so much objection to
its workings here. As it is, Ore
gon money is finding its" way into
the adjoining states where it can
enter the marts of trade and avoid
such unjust descrimination.
That there is considerable total
depravity amongst some specimens
of the Caucasian race is proven by
the manner in which the Sioux
have been kept , posted on the
movements of troops and iutenv.
tions . of government during the
present trouble on the reservations
in North Dakota and Montana.
