The New York legislature has
decided that the New York ex
hibit at the world's fair must be
closed on Sunday. A spasm of
virtue must have struck that body.
Wm. Jolly, republican candidate
for sheriff, has gone into the race
to win. Some of our democratic
brethren who are predicting his de
feat, may have a little surprise
awaiting them after election in
June.
The democrats have put their
ticket in the field. It is a ticket
that will be defeated if the repub
licans do their duty and get in and
work for the republican ticket as
they should. .
The' Salem Statesman says:
For a quarter of a century the
democracy in its platforms has
been tenting on the old republican
camp-grounds bringing up the
rear on every great issue, but
never making a new one. And
the outlook now is that it will
have to pitch its tents on the
camp-ground of American protec-.
tion, if it ever gets on top again.
The democratic cry that "it is
all done for political effect" when
ever the administration takes a
manly stand against the encroach
ment of foreign powers seems to
have some truth in it. At least
there have been marked political
effects, so far as the governments
of Italy, Chile, and Great Britain
are concerned, when Uncle Sam
got after them. Such "political
effects" will do us no harm.
The democrats have held their
convention. Now the political
campaign begins in earnest. The
democrats are not going to sit
around and see their candidates
whipped at the polls next June
without an effort and a struggle.
Not much; they are going to get
in and elect their ticket if they
can. It behooves the republicans
to get actually at work and pull
together in harmony on a thorough
ly organized basis frow now on un
til next June.
The republicans of Rhode Island
fired the first gun of the presiden
tial campaign at their election
last Wednesday. It was a small
gun, but it shoots a very large
ball and made a vigorous kick
against tammany free trade demo
cracy. If the democrats cannot
carry a manufacturing state with
the promise of free raw material,
where will they be when they
come to the agricultural districts 'i
.Left, of course.
Here is the sneech of.T .Taclr.
ulek, of Roseburg, in nominating
.Dinger nermann lor congress in
the republican state convention.
'1 have the honor to place in nom
ination a gentleman who is well
and favorably known not only in
this stale but in the United States,
who has given proof that he is
able and ever ready to give his
time and ability for the best inter
est of his constituents, who has
carried the republican party in
thin state to success with the larg
est majorities that ever greeted
any candidate in Oregon, who by
his untiring and successful efforts
to benfit our fair state in the halls
of congress has earned for himself
the 'esteem and support of this
I place in nomination the
Je Biiiger Hermann." -
Till! RHODE ISLAND ELECT ION.
Rhode Island, whose election
was carried by the -republicans on
Wednesday, is the only state in
the Union, save Louisiana, whose
election takes place on the 19th
inst, that chooses its government
in the spring. Oregon holds her
tate election lor minor otnceis in
June, Alabama in August, Ver- i
mont the first Tuesday and Maine
the second Monday in September,
Florida and Georgia hold state
elections in October.
Rhode Island is a close state,
since the abolition of restricted
suffrage has added several thous
and 'new voters to the lists, the
mnjority of whom have been as-
i.-.i to be of democratic spmpa
thies. Both of Rhode Island's
representatives in the lower house
of congress are democrats, and in
1890 the democrats elected the
governor. In state elections in
Rhode Island, as in New Hamp
shire and Connecticut, it takes a
majority to elect. The legislature,
which chooses the United States
senators and sometimes the gov
ernor, is chosen, as in Connecticut,
New Hampshire and Vermont,
under the "town system," and not
according to population, as in
New York and Massachusetts. In
Vermont, for example, the towns
of St. George and Glastonbury,
with about fifty votes each, have
about the same representation in
the lower house as the city of
Burlington with 3,000 votes. This
is a non-republican system, and
under it we not seldom find in
close states, like New Hampshire,
Connecticut and Rhode Island, no
election by the people and the
election of state officers made by
the legislature.
The failure of the democrats to
carry Rhode Island on Wednes
day insures the re-election to the
United States senate of Senator
Aldrich, who is the peer of Gov
ernor McKinley, of Ohio, as an
able and learned expounder of the
republican doctrine of protection.
The democracy have failed to carry
Rhode Island on the tariff issue,
expounded by ex-Governor Camp
bell and Grover Cleveland; they
have failed to defeat for re-election
the ablest republican in the
state, save John Sherman; they
have lost all chance of adding the
four electoral votes of Rhode Is-
land to the democratic column in
November next.
Rhode Island was good- stamp
ing ground for the democratic tar
iff reformers, . who desire "free
wool" and taxed woolen goods,
but the Rhode Island manufac
turers refused the bribe; they saw
that ultimately "free wool" would
be followed as it was in England
by free woolen goods, and they
were smart enough to see that a
protective tariff to endure and
justily itself must be a fair tariff;
the producer of raw material and
the manufacturer wrere in the
same boat and they must" sink or
swim, survive or perish together.
The western wool grower and the
eastern manufacturer are both
cared for by the McKinley tariff,
which is a fair tariff; for the east
ern manufacturer to bite at the
bribe of free wool would be sure
to turn the western, wool grower
into a free trader; protected wool
and protected woolen goods must
stand or fall together; tree wool is
only the first step to free trade.
Post-intelligencer.
According to Dunn's Review of
Trade for the past week the prices
ot nearly all commodities in gen- ;
eral use have declined fully 18 ;
per cent, since this time a year
ago. As the democrats have al- i
ways claimed that the McKinley
taritt would
increase prices be-
.
yond the means
of workinrnen
this little statement will serve as
a most effective republican argu
ment. Since wages remain the
same and prices are lower surely
the tariff has not injured the wage
earner at anv rate.
Eighteen years ago the demo
crats got possession of the Jackson
county government, receiving it
from the republicans without a
dollar ot indebtedness and in a
flourishing condition. Immedi
ately the county began running in
debt and the accumulation now
reaches a total of more than $180,
000 and the interest on that sum
exceeds the amount annualy spent
by the democrats to improve the
roads of the county. Democratic
officials must have been having a
fat time down in Jackson county.
The republicans have again
nominated Hon. S. W. Condon for
the office of prosecuting attorney
for the " second judicial district.
There is little doubt but that he
will be reelected, as he has made
a good and clean , record for him
self during his present term of of
fice, one that the people of this
district will endorse at the polls
next June.
. A glance over the convention
on Wednesday, says the Mercury,
revealed tne lact mat uregon may (
justly boast of a very large number
of fine Websterian Jeffersonian
and Lincolnian heads among its .
local statesmen. I
ic MisEiir.
The-democrats in congress are
not in a jubilant irame of mind.
When the session began last De
cember, four months ago, they
carried themselves with the feel
ing that they would have a walk
over, as it were, in the coming ,
canvass. They had an overwhelm
ing victory, had 140 majority' in
the house, and they felt that the
whole earth belonged to them.
Their mission was to repeal the
McKinley tariff act 'and establish
free coinage of silver. They feel
now that they can do neither the
one nor the other. The tariff part
of their contract is in abeyance,
but the free silver end of the job
seems to have gone into thin air.
The vote on the silver bill shows
that the democrats are not only
scarce, but badly so. They are
all mixed. In catering to the
farmers' alliance and all of the
other outside shows in politics,
they seem to have undertaken
more than they can carry out.
How to place their allies, and car
' ry out their promise on silver, is
! what now disturbs their equan
: imity. The troublesome republi-
cans in congress are very unkind
; in refusing to get them out of
their difficulty. Statesman.
CLEANLINESS.
Cleanliness is conductive to
health. It is a necessary condition
to a strong and vigorous, body; not
only is this true of the body, but
is equally so of a city. It is sur
prising how much negligence there
is in this respect. One would be
surprised at the condition of many
of the back door j'ards both in the
business and residence portions of
the city, if an investigation were
made. Often the front yards pre
sent an attractive appearance and
are quite inviting, but they are no
index of what may be the condi-
A t . 1 1. 1 Jl 1 '
uon oi me uacisuoor varus, ins
no credit to many of our thrifty
houseowners that such a state of
things exists. The filth in some
yards is unbearable; filthy water
and scraps from the table are al
lowed to accumulate around the
back door, till they become a
nuisance. Not only are they so
to the family, but they are equally
i f to thef neighbors, who perhat
keeP.a clean yard. I here is n
JS
no
occasion tor this negligence: it
costs no more to be clean than it
does to live in filth and dirt. The
poor can have clean yards just as
easily as the rich. It costs com
paratively nothing to have clean
yards. Nothing is so prettj' in the
city as a little cottage in a clean
yard, surrounded, it may be, by
trees and shrubbery. Even if the
yard is not large enough for trees,
a little grass and a lew flowers
would adorn it; but. cleanliness
should be the main feature. The
uncleanliness of back door yards
is theause of a great deal of sick
ness; it could not be otherwise;
the constant breathing o! the viti
ated air from so much filth is a
health-destroying element. Our
housewives , should take some
pride in keeping a clean yard;
there is no reason why the front
yard should be clean and have a
pleasant appearance while the
back yard would nauseate "you
were you to go into it. Old bones,
potato peelings, old fruit cans, the
table leavings of all kinds, lie in a
disgraceful heap. These places
are legion; every city is contami
nated with them. Our citizens
should feel pride enough in their
homes to make them both beauti
ful and cleanly.
Springtime is favorable to a gen
eral clean Up. Refuse matter of
i j . t ii it
: every uim snouiu oe removeu o-
loie the hot summer days come.
If the whole city is cleaned and
garnished, so to speak, there will
be no pestilential vapors to
breathe, and the general' health
fulness will not be impaired.
Clean up. -
I . Cast out from the great people's
I party, .the prohibitionists and
woman suffragists will trot in dou
ble harness this year. They took
a preliminary spin in Oregon at
convention Thursday, and have
been training together in a similar
way in other states. Where they
will be at the end of the great race
next November is a question upon
which they hold an opinion some
what different from that of other
mortals; It is discouraging to
have offices go begging for candi
dates. Oregonian.
The interest-bearing debt of the
United States is rapidly melting
away. At the beginning of March,
the amount of the debt on which
interest is paid was $585,02S,O80.
or only about $9 per capita. On
most of this debit but 4 per cent
interest is paid, while some of it
draws but 2 per cent. On no
other people in the world is the
burden of taxation so light. . ;

From our Regular Correspondent. .
. Washington, April 4, '92.
There is no- longer room for
doubt that the at the time seem
ingly unexpected termination of
the silver battle in the house was
but the carrying out of a carefully
pre-arranged plan on the part of
certain democratic leaders who
did not wish their party committed
on this question at the opening of
the presidential campaign. They
wish to leave the.way open for the
democratic party to pose as favor
ing free coinage in states where it
will be beneficial to do so, and as
opposing it in other states, just as
that party has always done in
presidential elections on most
questions of national importance.
The small fry were not let-in the
scheme, or Representative Bland
would not have blackguarded
Speaker Crisp in such a savage
way and then had to eat his'words
afterwards, when he was told why
Speaker Crisp had seemingly be
trayed the ultra free silver men;
but they all now know the mean
ing of the whole business and
about eiglity or ninety of them are
trying to hatch up some scheme of
revenge, and if they only had a
nervy leader they might accom
plish something, as with the pres
ent average attendance in the
house, that many members, it
properly handled, could easily tie
up the house and keep it tied up
until their purpose was accom
plished. As yet they only threaten,
and those who threaten seldom
fight.
It is not regarded as probable
that the silver campaign opened
in the senate by the debate on Mr.
Morgan's resolution will resulc in
any definite action by that
body on the actual question ot free
coinage, although the dodgers like
Hill are in a state of trepidation
on account of it, and may be forced
to define their position.
The first fsee trade measure, the
Springer free wool bill, will be put
through the house this week, but
there is not the remotest probabil
ity of its getting through the sen
ale. The alliance men in congress
have adopted a new financial
'lad," and to hear them discuss it
one would suppose that they actu
ally expected the bill authorizing
it to pass. It is for the secretary
of the treasury to issue on demand
of the several slates, legal tender
treasury notes, similar to those
now in general circulation, in any
amount desired up to $30 per cap
ita, taking the population as given
in the last census. The states are
to deposit as security twenty-year
: bonds, bearing interest at the rate
oi one per cent, per annum. The
I bill says nothing of how the states
i are lo redeem these bonds at the
expiration, of the twenty years, al
though it authorizes the legisla
tines lo distribute the money, at
their discretion. Like the sub-
treasury scheme, it looks well on
paper, and would be equally im
possible to put into piactical oper
ation. Not a single democrat ic member
of the senate committee on the
district ol Columbia voted lor Sen
ator McMillan's bill lo appropri
ate 1 5,000 towards entertaining
the members of the G. A. R. who
will attend the encampment in
: this city, which that committee,
by tiie vole of republicans, has la
i vorably reported to the senate.
I Hie original oiil was lor $100,000,
; but upon consultation with the
f local com mil lee n was reduced
j and a provio inserted that $t50,000
should be raided by private con-
tribiuions ami spent before any of
; the congre.iMnai appropriation can
be u?ed. Il the democratic repre
sentatives are as hostile as these
democratic senators have shown
themselves to be the bill will never
get through the house.
Representative Miller was right
when he denounced the present
rules ol the house, as worse than
! no rules at all, and said that the
time of the house had been spent
in-doing nothing or worse than
nothing on account of tho-e rules.
The house still keeps up the
farce of holding one evening" ses
sion .each week to consider private
pension bills, but a quorum is
never present and the point of
"no quorum" is invariably made
by some democrat, so that nothing
is ever done at those sessions. At
the last one representative Hemp
hill, ot South Carolina, unmerci
fully scored his party for what he
termed its "child's play" in hold j
ing these sessions, and pretending!
to do what it had no idea of doing.
