DEMOCRATIC FAILURE.
Under the caption "The Failure
of the Democratic Party" Harper's
Weekly of the 3rd inst. says:
"The people are growing weary of
the democratic party. They are
out of patience with it because of
its inefficiency, its cowardice, its
lack of principle and cons'stency,
its imbecility. It would seem as
though it had became so habitu
ated to cringe before a republican
majority, to abandon principle aud
honor, to secure by cunning what
it dare not openly fight for, that,
now in the day when it is in its
power in both the executive and
legislative branches of the gov
ernment, it still cringes before the
threats, and it is still afraid of the
taunts of its opponents. It dares
not execute the commission given
it. It does not trust in the ma-
ioritv behind it It has no confi
dence in its principles. A com
pany of populists, whose existence
is due to its own folly, scares its
statesmen in the south, and a noisy
band of protected manufacturers
make them tremble in the north.
After reviewing the party his
tory at considerable length, in
which is said little thai is good
and much that is corrupt and
faulty, it continues by saying:
"The party itself Has done nothing
to deserve the confidence of the
people. New York city was com
Dletely under the control of Tam
many Hall, The good people of
the metropolis were at . the mercy
of the criminals who ruled in the
name 6f democracy. In the stajje
FlowerVas governor and Hill and
Murphy ere senators, and so ab
solutely controlled the organiza
tion oi the tparty that it simply
registered their decrees."
"In the south the democratic
senators were going over to the
populists andwere advocating
government loan!; to farmers, gov
ernmeni paper nkoney based on
ntklnii fraa n!n?A nf fill VP r and
a
every. fantastic lojSy . that ccild beO
devised by half-crVzid brains." A 1
Continuing th same article,
ays: "The senatB is the living ex
ponent ot the vces of the demo
cratic party. Its democratic ma
jority stands'" in the way of the ad
vancement jof its own professed
political' principles, and is hostile
to the welfare of the country. So
long as-'tfie democratic party re
mains I under the control of the
democratic senators from the south
and the New York machine, so
long will it fail to accomplish any
good 'for the country. Democratic
aerators aie responsible for the
scandalous delay in the passage of
the rilver repeal bill." Folly has
invaded the house it elf with the
income tax. "By reason of the
character of its leaders, the dem
ocratic party has accomplished
nothing for the country since it
obtained control of the house
twenty years ago.
"It asks why not compel the
senators of the south and the New
York organization to harmonize
themselves with the sentiments of
the voters and make them what
they ought to be servants, and
not masters of the party," and
concludes by saying that: "If Hill,
Gorman, ,Pugh, Morgan, Murphy
and Crocker are to continue to be
the democratic party, it is high
time for a reorganization by those
who have been voting for what
. Mr. Cleveland, Mr. Fanchild and
others have been teaching to be
democratic principles."
Chicago is in the midst of a
financial ; famine. The boom has
bursted. The salaries of the city
employes are to be cut down to
the bone. The police and fire
departments are to be reduced,
and every man drawing city pay
as high as $700 a year will be
compelled to give his share of it.
The situation is serous, and un
less something of the kind is done
Chicago will find herself on a brink
of a financial precipice. The
comptroller's estimates are just
$2,000,000 in excess of what the
city can- pay without becoming
bankrupt
It is, reported that Pennoyer
Will be a candidate on the demo
cratic i ticket, for mayor at the
coming municipal election in
Portland, and if successful in se
curing the nomination, his election
is assured. . This seems strange
when it is remembered that Port
landers claimed his success during
the last gubernatorial contest was
solely, ; due - to his popularity
among the . people of . the cow
counties; but this report evidences
the probability that city iolk are
also anxious to live under the ad
ministration' of this rank demagogue.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, Feb. 5, 1894.
Republican senators are met with a
piece of democratic duplicity at the be
ginning of the consideration of the
Cleveland tariff bill by the senate com
mittee that is far from encouraging.
Previous to the passing of the bill by
the house Senator Vorhees, chairman
of th finance committee, promisea
republican senators that the committee
would grant full hearings to industries
affected by the bill. Now, those
promises are ignored and Mr. Vorhees
says the committee will grant few, if
any hearings, alleging as an excuse for
breaking his word that the information
which will be received from the circular
letters sent out by the committee will
be all that is needed. This is a mere
subterfuge, and no one knows it any
better than Mr. Vorhees. It is per
fectly true that the answers to the
questions in that
would furnish all
tion necessary but
circular letter
the informa
it is also true
that this information never will be put
in shape to be used by the committee,
and that is also known to Mr. Vorhees.
If answers are received from only one
half of the onemillion ' circular letters
sent out it would require the continual
services of fifty clerks for at least six
months to tabulate the answers and
put them in an understandable shape.
The committee hasn t the clerks nor
the disposition to wait for the work to
be done if it had them. The plain un
varnished truth is that Mr. Vorhees
has received the orders of his master
in the white house and he will break
his word to his colleagues who have
nothing to give him in preference to
disobeying his master who has offices
at his disposal. It begins to look as
thoueh Mr. Cleveland has sufficient
a
control of the democrats on the finance
committee to compel them to report
the bill to the senate practically as it
was passed by the house, leaving the
fight to be made on the floor of the
senate. The republican senators pro
pose making it a fight that will be
memorable in the tariff history of the
country.
The most notable feature of the
democratic side of the Hawaiian dis
cussion in the house was the unblush
ing aiTrontry of representative McCre-
ary, oi ivencucKy., in standing up ana
)fJNnforniing the-, hbuse and Jfye cquntry
tiiat Cleveland had never ae
cided upon the restoration of the
queen. This is one of the results of
cuckooism upon a man who has always
been considered in spite ot his intense
partisanship fair minded and patriotic,
When a man becomes the defender of
Mr. Cleveland's policy he necessarily
has to drop the role of patriotic states
man and assume that of a pettifogging
special pleader who endeavors to make
a good case for his clients regardless of
law or facts. Such men are common
enough in every community, but it is
little short of a natioal calamity that
so many of them should occupy seats
in congress. The only consolation is
that the people have fully acquainted
themselves with the facts in this case
and cannot be bamboozled bo misstate
ments or cuckoo resolutions,
Mr.
Cleveland is doing more in his
ettort to beat senator Jtlill and secure
the confirmation of Mr. Peckharr. to the
supreme court vacancy to lower the
dignity attached to the office of presi
dent of the U. S. than any other man
has ever done, and the result appears
to be contrajy to his expectations.
Some senators who were at first dis
posed to vote for Peckham's confirma
tion will vote against it as a rebuke to
Mr. Cleveland for his peculiar and
undignified tactics and it may be that
euough of them will so vote to reject
the nomination. Thete is another
feature that is not considered creditable
to Mr. C. The financial condition of
the government is such that it would
seem to demand the entire attention
and the best abilities of the president,
but instead he is giving his entire tim
10 conducting a personal tight, leaving
the finances to get along as they may.
The patriotism of the republicans in
congress has never been more strik
ingly exemplified than by their con
duct concerning the sale of $50,000,
000 of bonds by Secretary Carlisle.
They preferred maintaining the credit
of the government to taking advan
tage ; of the numerous opportunities
given them by the administration and
its indiscreet friends in congress to
make party capital " The only men
who tried and who are still trying to
injure the credit of the government are
democrats and populists. The bonds
will be forwarded to their purchasers
this week and if the payments are all
made in gold $58,000,000 will be
added to the $65,000,000 of gold now
in the treasury.
The hardest fight that will be made
upon any one section ef the tariff bill
will : be that against the income tax.
According to the latest poll 41 sena
torstwo less than a majority are
against it, 37 for it and 6 in doubt. Of
the six in doubt three are republicans
and three democrats. v Mr. Cleveland,
who for a long time opposed this tax,
has now assumed a non-commital po
sition towards it.
THE BIRTHDAY OF LINCOLN.
If Abraham Lincoln had lived
he would have been eighty five
years old last Tuesday, aud, not
withstanding his great age, would
have been as forceful in American
affairs as Gladstone and Bismarck
are in the affairs of England and
Germany. But by a mysterious
providence he was removed from
the scene of his greatness and use
fulness at the time when his serv
ices were most needed Dy tne
country that he loved so well.
We do not know why he was taken
hence at such a time, but we do
know that his memory is worthy
of all the loving tribute paid to it
by his countrymen. And there
never was a time when his mem
ory should be more revered or his
precepts more religiously heeded
than now.
In the language of an exchange
Abraham Lincoln was the typical
American. He was the product
ot our distinct national life and
western civilization. Born in the
early years of the republic and
reaching mature manhood at a
time when American principles
were first asserting their suprema
cy, he became imbued with a pure
Americanism. Mis life and asso
ciations kept him in touch with
the masses of his countrymen until
he was called to the post of lead
ership at a time when none but
Americans were needed on guard.
The preservation of the union and
the emancipation of the slaves
were the two great historical fea
tures of the Lincoln administra
tion. Yet, as great as they are, in
a sense they were merely inciden
tal to his career. Ihe true great
ness of the man shone forth in
that spirit of complete self-abne
gation, and the sacrifice of al
selfish considerations on the altar
of patriotic duty. He loved his
country beyond and above
everything else, and his patriotism
was so generous that he was will
ing to forgive his erring country
men who had engaged in rebellion
against the government. His love
for America was too intense to
hold malice against Americans,
even though they had been rebels
It is said of Abraham Lincoln that
neras4nevejr Koown to .speat . a
narsii or unKina wora oi a politi
a1 1 ... -ml.. ...
cal enemy. This simple fact illus
trates tne true nobility of the
man's character.
This country has had"" but one
Abraham Lincoln, and may never
have another. He has taken his
place alongside of Washington
and, as the ages recede, the sub
limely illustratad virtues of these
two Americans will sanctify histo
ry. If there were no other rea
sons for it, it would be a justifica
tion of providence in establishing
this young republic that it has
given to the world a Washington
and a Lincoln. Oh, that their
spirit of unselfish patriotism pre
vailed in the high places today 1
ine terms or twenty-seven U. . sena
tors 11 democrats and 16 republicans ex
pire in 189a, and tne legislatures chosen in
the state elections during this this year will
be called upon to nil them. There are also
three vacancies to be filled one each in
Washington, Montana and Wyoming. The
outgoing democratic members of the upper
nouse ot congress are all reasonably certain
to be succeeded by democrats, while there is
a fighting chance of putting democrats in
place of several ot the republican senators
whose terms expire with the hity-third con.
gress. Eugene Uuard.
Smely the otherwise brilliant
editor of the Guard has been
mixing his drinks. For some rea
son his ideas are greatly mixed
The Nehalem Journal, now in
its fifth year, has renounced its
allegiance to the people's party
and will in future support the cause
of republicans. The Journal is a
bright little sheet and ought, now
sir.ee it represents the only true
principles of fcood government, to
meet with a thrifty support from
the good people of Veronia, Co
lumbia county. Luck to the new
scheme.
A great storm raged in the east
the forepart of the week that is
said to have been the worst of the
season. Mercury fell rapidly and
ranged from eighteen degrees to
forty degrees below zero. In Ore
gon the discomfiture of a cold
winter , has not been realized,
while our shivering friends in the
east have been severely punished
with the biting cold.
Capt. Moffett is no longer editor
of the Portland Evening Telegram.
He is undoubtedly in training for
the fruitless democratic guber
natural nomination.
Thb northern representatives in
congress who voted for the Wilson
bill and pauperism for working
men will be remembered.
Hon. W. F. Matlock is men
tioned as a possible nominee on
the democratic ticket for the of
fice of state treasurer. ' ' -
SHE GOT A BARGAIN
Better Than Thai, She Knew How to Um It
Aftef Getting It.
A lady surromided the bargain coun
ter of one. of the-big retail stores on
Sixth avenue the other day and cap-
tared a fragment of china silk with
which she wanted to make a screen.
To accomplish ffcis required a degree of
strategy and physical exertion sufficient
to equip a college eleven for active serv-
ice on the gridiron. - But she got there.
i spent me wnoie aiiernooii, eaiu
he to a friend, ."and when I got home
I figured the whole thing up. I ccAld
have bought th same stuff np stairs at
the regular counter for 89 cents a yard,
and I wantedfoly 8)4 yards. Well,
that mean littleclerk sold me fonr yards
for 85 cents it was a remnant, you
know so I found had been trodden
upon for sdoumwo hours and squeezed
black and blue and had lost just 8 cents
by the operation.
"But, law, -Oat's nothlngl What do
you s'pose? ' Wny, when I examined
that silk the nipt day, I found a bole in
every fold. V
"Mad? WelK I think I was mad I Jfly
husband laughed at me. He says wom
en were born to be fooled, don't you
know that ETSst of us haven't sense
enough to spread an umbrella when it
rains. V
" 'What would you do?' I asked him.
' 'Do,' says he, 'I'd throw that away
and never go back to that store again.
" 'Not much.' sa vs I. 'I'm going to
maice them take that back if I die fgr
it. Now thereT And if you should miss
me when night comes, you'll find my re
mains at the foot of the china silk coun
ter!'
"I went back. After another two
hours of shuffling and crowding I got a
chance to confront the young man who
sold me that silk. I waB prepared to
make him ashamed of himself, now 1
tell you. But he merely looked at it and
said in a bored sort of way, 'Oh, yes,
that is the same piece of silk Mrs. Blank
returned last week.
"Yes, I was Btricken dumb. If there
had been room enough, I'd have drop
ped. But that's nothing. Let me tell
you. while he was making out my re
bate check another lady'glanced at tne
Bilk I had just laid down.
' ' That's real pretty, said she. iiow
many yards?'
" 'Four, ma'am,' says he.
" 'How much?'
'Forty cents,' says he, with the
most unblushing face. 'It's the last piece
of that shade in the house,' says he.
" 'I'll take It,' says she, pulling out
her purse just aa he gave me my ticket
for the return of that Identical piece.
Well, then I knew that young man de
liberately cheated me and was going to
cheat that lady right before my face. But
I got my breath quick enough to tell her.
And I did. I said: 'Madam, I've just
this minute, brought that back. It's
damaged. Look at these holes 1 He
knows it's damaged. Here's my ticket
for the rebate for its return.

An Indian Treasury IiOoted.
A grave scandal has come to light at
Indore. Treasure which has long been
supposed to be guarded in the Khasgi
treasury, amounting to 900,000 rupees,
is missing. Her late highness Ma Saheb
told the maharajah that she had pre
sented a few of the gold ornaments
from the Jawahir Ehana to some of her
servants, and that the younger Ma Sa
hebs the stepmothers of his highness
knew all about the jewelry and silver
articles and cash in the treasury, and
that he would get all information re
specting them from the younger prin
cesses. But no one of them has been
able to furnish any explanation respect
ing the missing sum of rupees, or the
jewels, ornaments and silver articles
which were with them. On this ac
count the allowances of the maharajah 's
stepmothers have been partially with
held while the mystery is under inquiry.

CORES
MYSTERIES !
Th-3 Nervous System the Sea'
of Life and Mind. Recent
Wonderful Discoveries.
No mystery has ever compared with that of
human life. It has been the leading subject
of pi-ofessi-mal research and study iu all aces.
But. notwithstanding this fact it is not (reuyr-
aiiy k ii o w u
that the seat
of life is loca
ted in the up
per part of t he
spinal cord,
near the base
of the brain,
and so sensi
tive is this
portion of the
nervous sys
tem that even
the prick of a
needle will
cause instant
death.
R'fptit. discoveries have demonstrated that
all the organs of the body are under the con
t to! of the nerve centers, located in or near
i he base of the brain, and that when these are
deranged the organs which they supply with
nerve fluid are also deranged. When it is re
membered that a serious injury to the spinal
cor.i will cause paralysis of the body below
the injured point, because the nerve force is
'ire vented by the injury from .reaching the
jaralyzed portion, it will be understood how
the derangement of the nerve centers will
cause the derangement of the various organs
which they supply with nerve force.
Two-thirds of chronic diseases are due to
the imperfect action of the nerve centers at
the base of the brain, not from a derange
ment primarily originating In the organ it
self. The great mistake of physicians in
treating these diseases is that they treat the
organ rather than the nerve centers which
are the cause of the trouble.
Dr. Franklin Miles, the celebrated spe
clalist.has profoundly studied this subject for
over 20 years, and has made many important
discoveries In connection with it, chief among
them being the facts contained in the above
statement, aud that the ordinary methods of
treatment are wrong. All headache, dizzi
ness, dullness, confusion, pressure, blues,
mania, melancholy, insanity, epilepsy, St
Vitus dance, etc., are nervous diseases no
matter ho.v caused. The wonderful success of
Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine is due to the
act that it is based on the foreeoine nrincinle.
