"OUR TARIFF RECORD.
For the year ending June 30,
1891, embracing nine months of
McKinley tariff, the customs reve
nue was $219,000,000 a falling
off of $10,000,000 when compared
With the revenue of the preceding
year. This reduction in revenue
was made despite an increase of
$55,000,000 in the value of im
ports, says an exchange.
For the present fiscal year, end
ing June 30, 1892 during the
twelve months of which -the Mc
Kinley law will be operative the
tariff revenue is estimated at $185,
000,000 a decrease of $34,000,
000 when compared with the 1891
year, and of $44,000,000 when
compared with the 1890 year. The
McKinley law may may be said
to have reduced the tariff revenue
about $45,000,000 a year.
During the year, embracing
only nine months of McKinley
tariff as noted above, the value of
goods admitted free of duty in
creased $118,000,000. The value
Of goods subject to tariff duties
decreased $107,000,000. The ad
ditions to the free list made by
the McKinley law thus increased
the percentage of free goods from
o4 per cent, during tne previous
year to 48 per cent, and decreased
the proportion of dutiable goods
from 66 to 52 per cent.
Duriug the six months endfng
with September 30, during which
the sugar provisions of the McKin
ley law were operative, the pro
portions of all imports- admitted
free was 55 per cent, and the pro
portion of dutiable goods was 45
per cent
The McKinley law has not only
reduced the revenue but has re
lieved the people from the burden
of many purely revenue duties
which simply "served to enhance
the price of non-competing im
ported goods to the consumer.
The New York Herald's last
Sunday's Wall street article paints
these tilings with rather a roseate
hue, as witness these excerpts :
"Despite the dragging and sagging
of the Wizard's' properties and
the rumors of defalcations and all
the rest of the bear efforts, the
. market during the week has ma
terially broadened and improved.
Money is so plentiful and so diffi
cult to employ at even cheap rates
that an increase of activity in the
bond market was a matter of
course A very large trade in
bonds is being done over the coun
ters of banking houses, but aside
from this the dealings in bonds on
the Stock Exchange during the
week ran above $11,000,000, as
against $7,500,000 for the corres
ponding week one year ago. Many
of the dividend paying properties
in whose management the public
has confidence were also in keen
demand for investment. As to
the general conditions underlying
the market they continue most la
vorable. Money in plethora, ex
ports of wheat enormous, cold ar
riving from abroad, the silver mill
. a i
grinding out new currency every
day, railroads unable to get cars
enough to : transport tho grain
pressing upon them, the iron in
dustry taking a new start, no great
strikes in progress, no trouble an
ticipated from congress in short,
peace and prosperity through
the republic. There are a few
shaky spots here and there, but it
ould be difficult to imagine
more generally satisfactory condi
tion of affairs this side of the mil-
lenium. " . ' .'
Senator Mitchell's bill for an
amendment to the constitution
providing for the election of sen
ators by adirect vote of the peo
pie, is going to have a hearing in
the rr-jsent congress.. This bill
-will likely have some partisan op
position, but it is receiving popu
lar approval generally by the press
of the country. The election of
senators by a direct vote would
bring this department of govern
ment into closer relationship with
the people, and thus prevent
many of the fraudulent contracts
of legislative assemblies in the
choice of senators. "The people
are the source of all power," if
our system of government is car
tied out to the letter.

THE PAPER'S PART.
ine editor ot a newspaper is
yuugeuuy pointed puDiicator, who
points with a pardonable pride to
me prosperity ana peace ot tne
people. To be popular, his paper
must print the proceedings pecul
iar to people's wants, prop up pub
lie proclaimers, puncture privi
leged pilferers,-paint pictures of
purity on the personalities of pu
sillanimous politicians, and preach
problems to please public pecul
iarities. Tersonal puffs are a part
oi me paper s programme, jn
winch persons who pretend to be
popular, pose as patrons of the
publication, but ;borrow it from
persons who patronize and pay
tne printer. Ave can easily see
the power of the paper in puplish
iug things pertaining to public
progression, and the advertisers
of a populace who pull out their
purses to push the printer into
paths of prosperity, will soon be
popular with the people, the pa
per proves pleasant for public pe
rusal, and prosperity proudly pre
vails. We call attention to these
things to show the importance lo
the citizens of Corvallis, of pat
ronizing its home papers. The
way to boom a town is to keen ud
your home papers by proper pat
ronage, and they will do the rest.
vnai, uie papers puunsii ot our
business men, and the movements
in favor of public enterprises in
our midst, will afford a sufficient
boom to any constantly growing
community. - We haven't prevari
cated a particle in niacins these
points in the paper for the perusal
ot our patrons.
Henry Villard is reported to
be once more sinking under finan
cial dimcullies. If the report
should prove true this will be
the third time he has gone under.
and it is not likely that he will
ever rise again, ino one among
the daring speculators on Wall
street have, had such vicissitudes"
as he. He rose from poverty to
great wealth in five years, and
durinr the past decade he lias
twice been utterly broken and
twice restored, buch a life must
involve a great mental strain, and
few men can retain their confi
dence aud courage after three suc
cessive failures for such creat
amounts in so short a time. If
Villard should do so, he would
himself to be really the most ex
traordinary man that has ever
been on the street.
According to the latest bulletin
on horticulture issued by the Cen
sus Bureau, there was grown in
this country in 1889, 39,171,270
pounds of hops upon 50,212 acres
of land in seventeen states. The
industry was most extensive in
New York where 36,670 acres
were devoted to it. Washington
was second with 5113 acres. In
the average yield per acre Califor
nia lead with 1648 pounds, Wash
ington second with 1626 pounds,
Oregon third, with 1155 pounds.
-while New York land yielded 547
pounds, and Wisconsin, the lowest
ot all, only 443 pounds.
Some of our exchanges say their
objection to bpeaker Crisp is be
cause of the company he keeps,
like poor Dog Tray. It is well
known that he is in harmony with
iammany hall, and Tammany hall
controls the party. What the dem
ocrats will do next year without
the aid of this ring of politicians
is difficult to determine: but as a
republican we shall not feel an
noyed if there is a little "unpleas
antness" in the rauks of democ
racy.

THE CHILIAN INBROGLIO.
a . -One of, the most extraordinary
instances of popular folly that has
ever baen displayed by any people
in tne nistory or tne world is now
being exhibited by the Chilians
says the San Jose Mercury. Their
rage and fury against the United
States is almost incredible in its
bitterness and in the extent to
which it is manifested. No. one
has ever been able. to find out the
slightest reason for it. The seiz
ure of the Itata could hardly have
been the cause of such a wide
spread frenzy, and there has been
literally nothing else that could
have given the most hot-headed
an excuse for flying into a passion
against us. In all this froth and
fury there would have been for us
no more than a mere farce were it
not for the fact that the vindic
tive Chilians have not been con
tent with merely uttering their
denunciations, but have in ajno
ment of wild hatred struck down
in the streets of Valparaiso a num
ber of American sailors. The blood
of these men gives a tragic impor
tance to the rage of the most lbol-
ih declaimers. It is no longer a
question now of why they hate us,
nor of what their hatred amounts
to. Nothing remains for us but to
convince tnese people that an
American sailor, sent by the Unit
ed States Government to a foreign
port carries with him to that port
all the might and majesty of the
republic. He cannot be assailed
with impunity, and the United
States, however friendly she may
be to Chili, or however contemptu
ously indifferent to the anger of
the Valparaiso mobs, neither can
nor will neglect to enforce her
claim for reparation for the mur
der of her seamen. This beinsr the
cannot be denied that at
the present juncture the continu
ance of peace is dubious. The
Chilians seem to be too angry to
deal sensibly with us. and the
wrong they have done us is too
gross for us to be any longer leni
ent.
On account ot the steady rains
this fall only about one-half the
usual amount of fall grain has been
sown in Benton county so far this
S3ason, and reports from all parts
of the Willamette valley indicate
the same condition of affairs. But
our farmers are by no means dis
couraged, for early winter rains is
a good indication of an early
spring, ihus, it can safely be said
that Benton county will have the
largest acreage of spring grain next
year m its history.
Pennoyer's recommendation of
Simon for the circuit judgeship is
receiving democratic comment
throughout the state. By this en
dorsement the average farmer will
be led to wonder in what particu
lar relation after all does the gov
ernor have the farmers' and la-
1 . -w .
oonng classes' interests, it is a
conundrum, indeed, and will leave
us to ponder whether Pennoyer is
the man his supporters recognize
him to be, or is he a fraud ? : ,
Mills refuses the second place
on the ways and means commit
tee offered him by Speaker Crisp.
He also refuses to suggest a name
for the appointment, but is willing
to accept any other assignment of
the speaker.. Mills is not in the
right humor just now to accept
courtesies from Crisp, and he will
not likely regard democratic
movements with any degree of sat
isfaction. Murat Halstead, in an inter
view, says it will be Flower on the
democratic ticket next year as a
compromise between Hill and
Cleveland factions, and Halstead
takes particular pains to remark
that Flower "is a decent, kindly.
iriendly man, who has offended
nobody." He thinks Blaine will
be the republican condidate and
that he will be elected over Flower.
The appointment of Stephen B.
Elkins as secretary of war is re
garded generally as a judicious se
lection. While Elkins is known
to be a man of quiclc political en
ergies, he no doubt has the neces
sary qualifications for the service
of good statesmanship, and he will
fill the office with credit to him
self and to the nation.

THE FIRE DEPARTMENT.
Corvallis, Or., Dec. 22, '91.
Ed. Gazette: At a regular
meeting of the Corvallis hook and
adder company held Monday
night, 1 was instructed to send a
communication to the Gazette
which should correct the erroneous
impressions, conveyed in a letter
in last week's Gazette, siened
"Citizen," and reflecting on the
usefulness of the Corvallis fire de
partment, as well as alleging that
the city council had been grossly
direlect in its duty towards the
fire department.
"Citizen" wants the fire depart
ment re-organized or perfected.
He should read the city laws and
the regulations of the fire depart
ment and of the companies organ
ized within the department. He
will then ascertain that the fire
department is well organized. The
companies in the department are
well organized and need no per
fecting any further than to enlist
some new members into the en
gine company and give them the
necessary drill.
The hook and ladd. r company
was organized in 1875 and since
that time has always had a suffi
ciently large andweil drilled mem
bership to meet the requirements
of the city. A couple of years ago
the city purchased a new, light and
serviceable truck and equipment.
The company has the use of a hall,
for which the city pays the rent,
has its own furniture, and always
has money in its treasury. It has
at the present time thirty mem
bers in good standing, composed of
the most active and prompt young
men of the town, who always re
spond to the alarm of fire the
minute it is sounded, no matter
whether they are at their work or
in their beds, or dressed in their
new clothes or their old ones,
which reminds me that I have
seen a good many handsome suits
ruined at some of the fires the
hook and ladder company have
attended. '
The "Citizen" says we are not
enjoying a satisfactory fire service
at this time. If he will be good
enough to state in what particular
the service is not satisfactory, pos
sibly the unsatisfactory part of
the department will call on him
for help. - The hook and ladder
Company wishes to say that - it
does not feel itself complimented
by the above statement. It fur
thermore doesn't think it in good
taste for an unknown "correspond-;
ent to masquerade behind the'.
name of "Citizen," and criticise a
fire department composed of citi
zens who show their public spirit
by action rather than in empty
words. It also wishes to be heard
to fully sustain and endorse the
city council, which body has not
at any time refused any . reasona
ble request of the fire department.
The members of the fire depart
ment serve without any pay. In
deed, they pay dues to belong and
in order to sustain the companies.
Four dollars per year dues, beside
twenty-five cent fines for absence
at fires, drills or regular meetings,
is what it. costs to belong to the
hook and ladder company. For
this the members have the privi
lege of wearing a red shirt on the
Fourth of July, and the honorable

"China for the Chinese" is the

One of its main objects is to pre
