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

About 2000 carloads per month

the dedication address at the

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

"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

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
