1T0T REPEAL, BUT AMENDMENT.
Senator Sherman makes a good
point in discussing the proposed
repeal of the act winch bears his
name. It will not do to repeal it
absolutely and entirely. Nearly
$150,000,000 of treasury notes
have been issued under this act
and are now in circulation. There
la no provision for their redemp
tion outside of the act itself. To
repeal it absolutely would leave
them in the air. Another, clause
of the act repeals the Bland law.
To repeal this law would raise the
Question whether the treasury
must not resume the purchase and
coinage of $2,000,000 of silver per
month. If repeal of the Sherman
law could wipe out everything
that has beendone under it, it
.would be a good thing. This is
clearly impossible. The notes
emitted under it must still be
taken care of. The one redeem
. fng clause in the act is that which
, gives them gold value so long as
the treasury can command gold for
their redemption on demand.
This must be retained at alljevents,
What is needed is not repeal of
' the Sherman act, but amendment
Purchase of silver should be
' stopped, but the credit of the Uni
ted States mustbe maintained by
. continued redemption in gold, on
demand, of the notes emitted un
dent.
' .. The first section of the act di
rects the treasury to purchase, at
the market price, so long as it
does not exceed $1.29 per ounce,
4,500,000 ' ounces of silver per
month, or so much as shall be of
fered, and to issue in payment
therefor , treasury notes of the
.United States. The second sec
tion makes these notes legal ten
der for all purposes, including cus
toms dues, and available for na
tional bank reserves, and provide
for their redemption on presenta
tion to the secretary ot the treas
ury in gold or sliver coin at his
discretion, "it being the establish
ed policy of the United States to
maintain the two metals on a par
ity -with each other upon the
present legal ratio or such ratio as
may. be provided by law." Sec
: iions third and 5th repeal the Bland
act, direct the coinage of 2,000,000
ounces of silver per month up
- to ; July, 1891, and authorize the
coinage of so much thereafter as
n&y be needful for redemption of
treasury notes. Section fourth
places the bullion to be purchased
under the usual mint regulations,
and section seventh transfers the
legal tenders held for redemption
. of national bank notes to the gen
eral treasury fund.
It would seem to be enough to
. repeal the first section, since all
that is desired is to stop the pur
chase of silver and the issue of
treasury notes. This would leave
thd rest of the law, which pro
vides for redemption of the silver
already issued, standing. Repeal
might be made by a brief act in
terms similar to the fifth section,
which repeals the Bland act. This
does not repeal those provisions of
the Bland act which relate to the
,, standard dollar already coined; it
merely slops the coinage of more.
Its words are, "That so much of the
act of February 28, 1878, entitled
'an act to authorize the coinage of
standard silver dollar and to re
store its legal tender character,' as
requires the monthly purchase and
- coinage of the same into silver dol
' la'rs 'of not less than $2,000,000 or
more than $4,000,000 worth of sil-
' ver bullion is hereby repealed."
The act for repeal of the Sherman
$tm might read simply, "That so
much of the act ot July 14, 1890,
entitled 'an act directing the pur
chase of silver bullion and the
. istoeof treasury notes thereon and
ibr other purposes, as requires the
monthly;' purchase of 4,000;000
ounces- of! silver bullion and the
'Sisue-bf) treasury notes in payment
; thereof ia- hereby repealed."'
' .This would' cover the entire
ground and accomplish the whole
4iaredobiect.. It has been sug-
gested that the same end might
be gained by passing a' law author
izing the president to suspend the
parchase of silver for a fixed time
in his discretion. This would seem
to be less satisfactory to everybody.
It can hardly be agreeable to tlx
silver men to place this discretioi
n the hands of Mr. Cleveland, and
hose whose convictions impel
hem to vote for the stoppage of the
silver purchases certainly would
rather stop them decisively and
finally, once for all. Moreover, the
sanitary effect of repeal upon gen
eral business and public confidence
will be vastly greater if it is decis-
ve and final. The time for shift
ing and temporizing expedients is
past. The only safety is in prompt,
effective, permanent and final
action, to put an end to that policy
which is the cause of public dis
trust, constriction of credit and
monetary stringency. Oregonian.
The discussion of Gov. Pen
noyer and his cranky ideas by the
newspapers of the country has
riven place to the most severe
criticisms of Gov. Altgeld, of llli
nois, for his pardon of the Chicago
anarchists on grounds ; wliieli do
not reflect a shadow of justifi
cation. In comparison ot the
worst that has been said of our
own governor with the most con
servative criticism of Altgeld, we
are forced to announce a pride in
the pioductiou of the "riotous
West." The action f of the Illi
nois governor affords the "Far
West" an opportunity to "counter
on the East for its assumption of
the lawlessness of communities
on the sunset side of the Rockies,
The little disregard of law we ex
perience is rather of a spasmodic
nature, and is really in no degree
dangerous to the foundation of
society. There are individuals on
this coast who'desire to see some
Criminals shielded, but they do not
wish that all criminals shall be
allowed freedom. ' Such persons
have in the past obtained the ear
of the governor. Another class
would be pleased to see the
Chinese go. and would take a hand
in accelerating their emigration
without regard to treaty righfs.
Such, in the past, have enjoyed
the co-operation of the governor
as a private citizen. Tha gover
nor has been known to urge a
corporation to pay twice for the
same work, in satisfaction of the
demands of labor, and has sug
gested the propriety of the presi
dent attending to his own affairs,
etc. etc. These are the most ser
ious lapses which can be laid up
on the threshold of Oregon's cap
itol. and Gov. Pennoyer is per
haps the best representative ol
the western people who favor a
construction of the law accord
ing to circumstances. These are
trivial matters as compared with
the deep-seated volcanoes of the
eastern social fabric, which usual
ly break on the surface in the form
of dfsorderly strikes or unlawful
demonstrations and which are
with difficulty suppressed. The
fuel for. these internal social fires,
uuder our immigration regulations
is furnished in unlimited quantity
from foreign countries, and, next
to cutting off this supply the best
protection society has is to keep
the destructive element well
smothered bv the law. The East
is menaced by the periodical ac
tivity of the social volcano known
as the "International,"-an organ
ization devoted to the introduction
of anarchv. Gov. Altgeld, the
democratic governor of Illinois
recently removed-the hand of the
law which was held over a break
in the social crust enveloping the
effectiveness of this organization
and IlerrMcst; one of the escape
valves, is beginning to hiss. Pol-
lowing the pardon of the Chicago
anarchists by the governor, Herr
Most said: "Unfurl your blood
red banners, comrades, the world
over and let us celebrate this feast
of jubilation, for we have received
powerful re-enforcements to our.
army. Fight, and the . victory
shall be ours. We must have a
reckoning with the blood-sucking
crowd;, bat, comrades, let us be
prepared the next time they at
tack us and give them , a heartier
welcome thani that accorded Bon
field and his" hounds in 1886." '

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, June 26, '93.
Strange things happen when a
democratic administration is in
power. One would naturally sup
pose that the president and his
rabinet would rejoice at the turn
of the gold tide from Europe to
wards the United States, and the
consequent decided improvement
n the financial situation, but on
the contrary it seems to have
caused them grief. Mr. Cleve-
and has expressed his fears to
more than one man that if the sit
uation continues to improve con
gress might not repeal tlu Sher
man silver law as promptly as it
would were the country in dire
financial distress. It is really a
Godsend to the country that there
is an improvement in the financial
outlook, although it is natural
causes and not any act or acts of
the administration that have
brought it about. If the improve
ment continues until after con
gress meets it will have the effect
of preventing any hasty and ill-
considered financial legislation
which might easily make things a
great ueai worse than they are or
would be with no legislation at all.
As no one has championed the
Sherman law it must be assumed
that it is not a good law; but lew
men who are thoroughly ac
quainted with the situation will
pretend to assert that its uncondi
tional repeal, that is to say, its re
peal without a substitute of some
kind dealing with silver, would be
any improvement. Conservative
men who are not blinded by
nreiudice either for or against
either, of the money metals be
lieve that congress as far as possi
ble should lake the question up
without partisan political bias
discuss it from every point of
view and go deliberately enoug
to allow the press and people time
enough to discuss and digest al
the propositions that may be sub
mitted before final action shallbe
taken. If this be done some satis
factory law mav be the result
although it may not meet the ap
proval of the extremists on either
side. The fact should never be
lost sight of that the masses are
always conservative in all things
and especially so in regard to na
tional finances which must always
regulate the prosperity, not of the
East, nor of the West, nor of the
South alone, but of the entir
country. If a contrary policy be
followed and this question be dealt
with from a narrow partisan polit
ical point of view, disaster will as
certainly follow as night follows
day.
And closely allied with the
finance question more closely
than the average democrat seems
capable ot comprehending is that
of the tariff. There can be no
doubt that the foolish talk of cer
tain prominent democrats about
the certainty ot radical changes
being made in our whole tariff sys
"Only the Scars
Remain,"
Says Henky Hudson, of the James

fies as follows: .

tem has had more to do with
bringing about the shaky feeling
in financial circles than every
thing else added together. While
few, if any, men. really believe
that the democrats will be foolish
enough to make such cuts in the
tariff as have been threatened,
such cuts as would, if actually
mule, make thousands of bank
rupts of men who are now fairly
n-osperons as manufacturers, large
and small, and a million tramps
out of woi kingmeu now profitably
employed, still the making of those
threats has had the effect of creat-
ng a feeling of dread and uncer
tainty as to just what they will
do, and as a natural consequence
millions of capital that would
otherwise be actively employed is
now locked up and business men
are daily making assignments be
cause of their inability to borrow
money upon securities which under
ordinary circumstances would
liave been gladly accepted as col-
ateral for the money they neces
sarily have to borrow to success
fully carry on their business.
Although it has not been offi
cially announced, your correspon
dent has it from 'a reliable . source
that the grand jury has practically
agreed to find indictments against
Ainsworth, Dant, Sassey and
Covert, for manslaughter, in con-
nectidn with the horrible accident
at Ford's old theater. Their trial
will probably take place early in
the fall session ot the criminal
court. Secretary Lamont's action
in dissolving the army court of
inquiry recently appointed by him
has been the subject of much
speculation. Of itself this order
indicates the belief of t lie secre
tary that the evidence is so plain
as to make a court of inquiry un
necessary, and were it not for his
failure to suspend Ainsworth,
Sassey and Covert, who are still
performing their' official duties, it
might be supposed that he in
tended ordering Ainsworth tried
by court martial as soon as the
civil courts pass upon his case.
Perhaps that is what he intends
doing. It is stated that Mr. Cleve
land has said that he would not
suspend Colonel Ainsworth until
he has been found guilty by a jury
in the criminal court. In an or
dinary case that might be the cor
rect stand for the president to
take, but this isn't an ordinary
case.
The president has issued a proc
lamation calling an extra session
of congress to convene on Monday,
August 7th, for'the purpose of en
acting such legislation as will re
lieve the country from its present
paralyzed condition of trade. To
what extent this, will be accom
plished remains to be seen. In so
far as this condition is brought
about by monetary laws now in
force, we may reasonably hope lor
relief, but these laws are not the
sole cause of he present de
pression. Threatened tariff legis
lation has a heavy bearing on the
situation, and we cannot reason
ably hope that this question be
dealt with upon a basis which will
reassure capital.
At last the labors for the de
mocracy of Colonel Robert A.
Miller have been rewarded. He
is made register of the Oregon
City land office, succeeding John
T. Apperson, who was appointed
May 27, 18-89. The place is worth
$3,000 a year.
What Causes Pimples?
Clogging of the pores or mouths of the seba
ceous glands with sebum or oily matter.
The plug of sebum in the centre of the pimple
is called a blackhead, grub, or comedone.
Kature will not allow the clogging of the pores
to continue long, hence,
Inflammation, pain, swelling and redness,
flater pus or matter forms, breaks or is opened,
the plug comes out and the pore is once more
free.
There are thousands' of these pores in the face
alone, any one of which is liable to become
clogged by neglect or disease. .
What Cures Pimples?
The only reliable preventive and cure, when
not due to a constitutional humor, is
Cuticura 5oap.
It contains a mild proportion of CCTICTJEA,
the great Skin Cure, which enables it to dissolve
the sebaceous or oily matter as it forms at the
mouths of thepores.
It stimulates the sluggish glands and tubes to
heilthy activity, reduces inflammation, soothes
and heals irritated and roughened surfaces and
restores the skin to its original purity.
This is the secret of its wonderful success.
' For bad complexions red, rough hands and
shapeless nails, dry, thin and falling hair, scaly
and irritated scalps and simple baby blemishes
it is wonderful. . t ,
It is preserving, purifying and beautifying to
a degree hitherto unknown among remedies for
the skin and complexion.
