On YoiLr (whan not paid in advance). CONTRAST. Under Cleveland's administra tion for ten months, from March to December, 1885, the debt was reduced only $1,927,840. A vast surplus was rolled and this was in creased by an excess of income due to tobacco, sugar and other unnecessary taxes, which the dem ocratic house utterly refused to re duce. Mr. Harrison's administration in the first sixteen months reduced the debt, from March, 1888, to June, 1891, by $133,025,550. In the first sixteen mc-nlhs of its term the Cleveland administra tion, with greater resources and revenues, reduced the debt only $54,235,610. The Baring panic in September, 1890, called tor ex traordinary exertions, and in ninety days Secretary Windom spent $100,000,000 of the surplus iu buying bonds, and averted a terrible disaster. In all, from March, 18S9, to last May, $296, 316,931 of the surplus was spent in redeeming the interest-bearing debt of the government, saving $55,852,493 in interest. In addi tion the last republican congress reduced taxation over $40,000,000. This disposed of the surplus and prevented a new one, and this September, for the first time iu a half generation, found the secre tary of the treasury independent of the needs and demands of Wall street. No great mass of money is locked up in the treasury away from the channels of trade. The rate for money is low, and cur rency moves as trade demands. Columbus Day in the United States will be celebrated by the school children, and the exercises will have a tendency to inculcate in the minds of the young the les sons of patriotism. Every boy and girl in the nation will feel proud of the privilege of being born and residing in the great republic of the west, and love of country will burn brightly on millions of altars in this broad land. When these children grow to man and woman hood we hope the fires of patriot ism will never be dimmed, and that there citizenship will benefit society by the exercise of the hab 'its of industry, sobriety and in teg . .rity. The world is advancing so rapidly that in the near future civ ilized countries will settle their differences by other methods than the sword, and the coming generations of Americans, from present indica tions, will need more toilers in the lines of honest industry on the part oi men, ana more cooks ana housewives on the part of women Lieut. Schwatka has submitted a proposition to the Portland chamber of commerce to explore and describe Mt. Hood lor $500 providing each member of that body shall buy his book for $1 50 The object cf the work is to make the grand old sentry a nationa .pane, ine cnamoer ot commerce is seriously considering the accep tance ot the proposition. About 2000 carloads per month of red cedar shingles are being shipped east fron various Pu fets sound points. The eastern market instead of being over stocked, is hardly kept supplied and the demand is increasing in every quarter, vvnn tne new rates to go into effect January 1st an equally big demand will be created for sawed fir and cedar lumber. Henry Watterson it to deliver the dedication address at the world's fair. This is most appro priate. He will call on the star eyea goaaess to neip conjure up such eloquence as will electrify the world.- The notice was short, but Henry accepts the change as imperative duty. We may look for something worthy of the star eyed female. Statesman. General Weaver is denied the honor of martyrdom, which was promised him at Pulaski, Tenn. It is a great lost opportunity for Weaver and the people's party. The Tennesseeans deem it best to let Weaver simmer out as Henry George and others have done. Ex. Great Britain has lost, about $23,000,000 per year of South American trade, which comes to us because of reciprocity. , This is why the free traders abuse reci procity so viciously. , ' "The democratic party was bom in the objective case," says Dr. Depew, and it is ready to promise any tiling to get in the possessive. Greshaji is probably getting into line to be a candidate for the , democratic presidential nomination j in-1896. NATIONAL PROSPERITY. The existing conditions are: a complete answer to the baseless assertions of the calamity howlers. The financial and industrial statis tics show that protection has borne fruit in shape of uaexam bled prosperity. A chaugd to free trade ui:der the circumstances would be an act of tolly. The fi nancial letter of Henry Clews & Co. says: "Taking an averace of the last ten years, the average amount ot failure i within the first nine months of the year, has been $107,000,000; which is $30,000,000 above the experience of the cur rent year, making no allowance for an increase of nearly 30 per cent, in the population during the interval. The losses of the south incident to two years of excessive crops of cotton had prepared us to to expect a very unfavorable show ing from that section, and yet the amount of failures has only been $11,100,000 against $24,900,000 in 1891. In the depressed Pacific states we should have expected an increase of failures, and yet the liabilities there show a slight decrease upon last year's. These are most encouraging facts; the more so because they admit of no gainsaying. The Denver News says: "With fusion in Oregon that state will be taken from Harrison. The Aus tralian ballot has stopped the old corrupt practice of importing train loads of republican voters from Puget Sound. The floating vote cannot be spared from Washing ton this j'ear." This is almost a slander on both Oregon and Wash ington. This state will not fuse, and Our neighbor is solidly repub lican. Whatever hopes our gov ernor may have inspired by his re cent flop, it is pretty certain that Oregon's vote will go for Harrison and protection, although it may be reduced by the deflection of the few calamity howlers within its borders. New York starts out with the quadro-centennial celebration. The rest of the country, Chicago included, is content to wait until the 21 instant, the day designated in the presidents proclamation. It must be said that New York made a creditable display, as 25, 000 students from colleges and schools marched, and 2000 school girls, attired in red, white and blue, sang patriotic songs as the procession moved by. Republican platform: Protec tion to American industries. Democratic platform: Tariff for revenue only. Hie nrst means goods used in America, and the second mean they are to be made in Europe. lioocls imported means wages earned in Europe. Which shall it be? The New York Journal report mat last week ifduuu wras paid in that cily for the rent ot a front of a house on Fifth avenue that took place Friday evening. This is high price for one night's pleasure and shows what modern extrava gance is capable of when it gets started. Here is an instructive little ob jective lesson on the effects of the new tariff law and of its reciproc ity clauses: Our total foreign commerce during the last three years of the Cleveland administra tion was $4,315,948,527; during the first three years of Harrison it was $5,234,263,000. In England the wheat crop is short and there is no correspond ing gain in any other crop. The London Times inquires how many farmers will be able to struggle through the winter. Tins shows that free trade does not insure prosperity as some people sup pose. UI have lonff thought that if there be any article of necessity which can be produced at home with as little or nearly the same labor as abroad, it would be better to protect that article of labor at its true standard of value." Abra ham Lincoln. Cleveland in his letter, ot ac ceptance, declares protection un justifiable and free trade impossi ble. As a tan tt must be one or the other, what does Mr. Cleve land mean to do? The- free trade and wildcat money Dlanks of the Chicago platform naturally go together. The one reduces workingman's wages, the other cneats mm out oi a part of it. : The Dublic highways are about in tne same condition, mean while there's one thoroughfare that is kept in royal style the one paved with good intentions. Ex. - . : v Thkbe never was a political or- ganization so magniloquent Jn claiming everything as the peo ple's party, with so meager a show of actual votes as a basis. ChildrenCry forJhers QastorIa. "FARMERS ARE BUOYANT." From the local columns of the country press the conclusion can be drawn that the towns all over Oregon are making rapid improve ments, and that they are geneally prosperous. New buildings, both business blocks aud houses, are going up, and streets are being opened, while bonds are being Toted to provide them" with water works and sewerage systems. i The crops are good and mortgages are becoming a thine of the past The farming population is buoy ant and the townspeople are happy with increased trade.-Portland Telegram. Then what are the democrats and the Pennoyers and the calam itiyites, who bring up in the rear of the "tariff reform" procession, howling about? asks the Eugene Journal. Peck's figures stand the test re markably well. Not an iota of proof has yet. been advanded against their ab3olute correctness. OFFENSIVE ECZEMA Suffered Terribly. Doctors and Bledl clnes Useless.

It wonld be nselens for me to try to tell the suffering this boy endured. I took him to two different doctors, both gave him lots of medicine, but all to no use. He grew worse. I therefore despaired of ever having him cured. Ono day I saw the great benefits promised to those who would use Cuti coua Remedies. I went right away to the drug store and boueht them.
