THE CORVALLIS GAZETTE, FRIDAY APRIL 27, 1894.
TARIFF EFFECTS WAGES.
Relation of Tariff to Wages
Ably Discussed by Hon, H. 3.
- MUler, of Grants Pess.
List Saturday evening, under the auspi
ces of-the Benton county republican club,
'. -the court room was crowded to overflowing
by a mixed audience, citizens and demo
crats, and a large number of ladies, their
wives and daughters, and the occasion of
which was an address by the speaker of the
evening, Hon. H. B. Miller, of Grants Pass.
After a couple of well-rendered selections
by the band, chairman of the county cen-
''- tral committee, Hon. Geo. Waggoner, in
troduced Mr. Miller as the "republican
Miller of Southern Oregon" and not the
"populist Miller," who would be at the
mourners' bench, if he was not already
there. Every voter's face in the audience
was an index of the purpose that led him
thither, namely: A clear understanding of
the preseut political issues, and we do not
believe that a single citizen there went away
disappointed. The Gazettr reporter had
instructions to take only the strong points
made by the speaker, bnt returned a full
transcript, and it is well worthy of publi
cation, but limited apace only permits us to
r give extracts. The subject of Mr. Miller's
address was: "The relation of tariff to the
wage question." Briefly he reviewed the
preseut deplorable condition of national
welfare,' manufacturing, and lastly but not
least, idleness of the American laborer, in
quiring into the meaning, cause and reme
. dy, not omitting the important responsi
bility of "banishing wild philosophy and
visionary theories, and getting upon the
foundation of solid facts and practical ex
perience;" "Wealth is the source of pros
perity and power; industry the creator of
wealth, and therefore if we cantind " the
mainspring to industry, we will begin to
understand the cause of onr trouble.
Before following this line of thought,
however, he eliminated "false notions of the
day," by basing his argument upon "All
social progress, all improvement in our con
dition, has for its foundation our industrial
Jife." Among these eliminations were the
theories of intemperance, tingle tax theory,
inheritance tax, free silver, the liberty of
our institution, which he referred to as
'Spread-eagle-Fourth- of-July- philosophy,"
' but liberty is a result, and not a cause;
slavery is a result of poverty; liberty the
result of wealth; wealth the result of in
dustry; money, like liberty, a result and
.not a cause of wealth, which industry crt-
' ates and calls into use.
"The theory that;capital regulates indns-
-' try and controls wages is likewise false, for
industry is the creator of capital and con
'roller of wages. If, then, our industrial
life is our source of welfare, whatever helps
that will qnicken our blood to increased
activity, aud if injured, it will become slow
and sluggish. Has anything occurred to
x injure or shock our national industry? Yes,
- the moment our' industrial policy, upon
which it has so long! been established and
maintained, was attacked that . moment we
demanded a change.'
. Better times can only reach us through
renewed industry, not through cheaper
goods and cheaper labor; not buying things
we can produce from foreign nations . and
" leaving the American laborer unemployed.
It can only come back by consuming and
producing more and that 'only by. higher
,' '.. wages. Then we have discovered the
broken mainspring to our great industrial
machinery and the cause of our distress.
Better wages mean better times. How
shall we secure them? ' Protect our laborer
from the cheap foreign laborer. That sup
ply and demand regulate prices is another
'falsity, hat prices are regulated by the cost
. . . -i ? ft t : t - m.
01 prouucnoo; ma pnue cm lauur uy 11 vobi,
and the laborers' living is regulated by his
method of living; kind of home he sup.
ports; his school; his government.".
Mr. Miller then compared the methods
and cost of living of the American laborer
to the foreign laborer, and brought out a
point which met great applause by saying:
!"Theu will you learn that when this nation
throws open its gates to the products of
this cheap labor, that your wages must fall
to a level with his; your mode of life must
n come to his level; if ho reads no books you
can have none, nor church, nor school; if
his home is a hovel of poverty, yours must
be the same; if he belongs to .the national
ity whera thtt riipfc in riftA and rata, vonra
- J F J
must be the same. .Why have we driven
the Chinaman from America? A prptec-
. . it- i i-i l.: ira
flVU O . WW. ...Haw...
Then why not protect yourselves against
theproduct of his cheap labor? There is no
virtue in protection except that required to
protect our wages. Our laborers must not
compete with the laborers of the world; we
cannot go down to their standard. It is
enongh to compete with American labor
only."
And, again, he said: "To the laborers,
your prosperity depends upon the wisdom
. with which yon cast yonr ballot. While
-. the interest of the merchant,' manufacturer
r and farmer is closely linked with . yours,
remember the inspiration and force which
moves any class of people, to a better con
dition of life, must come from their own
concerted action."
"If we are to compete with the English
man, German, Italian, Belgian, , Scandi -navian
or Chinaman in his native state, we
can do it only by accepting his rate of
wages and getting down to his food, his
home, his entire mode of living.
' "If you vote for cheaper goods, it. means
' . that your fellow laborer mnst work cheaper.
How much better- the policy of standing
hand-to-hand and shoulder-to-shoulder, and
' proclaim to all the world the philosophy of
protecting the American labor, its products
and the laj-orer himself."
- Following the same line of thought Mr.
Miller clearly pointed out the twin, evil of
free trade, "free immigration," and showed
its direct influence to lower the - daily
wage earnings of ear American - laborer.
"For," said be, "protection to labor must
include the products of cheap living men
and the cheap men themselves." ;

The Populists Nominate.
The element of discord that it was claim
ed entered into the republican and demo
cratic conventions did not make its ap
pearance at the assembly of populists last
Saturday. The meeting overflowed with
harmony. All the nominations were made
by acclamation and the candidates all ac
cepted with expressed reluctance with the
single exception of Mrs. C. C. Hogue- who
emphatically declined the nomination for
school superintendent. This was substi
tuted by the name of Miss Lulu Harring
ton, of Philomath. Thus has that city a
cinch on the office, as both the republican
and democratic candidates hail from that
place.
The offices of coroner and surveyor were
left blank, and Dominations were made for
constable and justice of the peace in Soap
Creek, Fairmount and Willamette precincts.
When the regular order of business had
been finished Major Bruce was asked to
make a few remarks. He claimed he was
sorry of his nomination, bnt since he had
been chosen he would make the canvass.
He was down on trusts aud corpoiations
and wanted the people to have a chance.
He was going to pull on the same Hue and
keep in the middle of the road. The speaker
claimed to not be wedded to any party, and
I prosperity was all that be wanted.
Felix Dodele followed with a tirade
1 against. Senator Dolph, claiming he was
laboring in the interest of manufacturers and
! bankers, instead of the dear people whom
he was elected to represent. D. M. Var
derpool made a fw remarks, claiming to
have been' a resident of Benton county for
over forty years aud if elected would prom
ise to serve the people faithfully and well.
Nels H. Wheeler thanked the delegates for
the honor conferred upon him, but claimed
his business required his uudivided atten
tion and a canvass of the county would
therefore be impossible. The ticket was as
.follows:
Joint senator, M ijor Bruce; joint repre
sentative, Thomas Stakely, of Toledo;
c mnty judge, F. A. Chenowetb; clerk, Per
ry Eddy; sheriff, John Ruse; recorder, W,
T. Braggins; treasurer, Nels H. Wbeeler;
assossor, R. Logan; school superintendent,
Miss Lulu Harrington.

Another Pioneer Gone.
The ranks of Oregon's aged pioneers are
rapidly being thinned out. The last one to
answer to the summons was Mrs. Malisaa
D. Thayer, who parsed away last Monday
afternoon at the residence of her daughter,
Mrs. Gostav Harding, in Portland. Mrs.
Thayer was in her 73 1 year, and crossed the
plains from Rochester, New York, in 1853.
Her husband, Hon. A, J. Thayer, was a
brother of ex Governor W. W. Thayer,
and occupied a prominent place iu the early
history of Oregon. .The family made their
home in Corvallis nntil after his death in
183. when the wife aud children moved to
Portland, where they- have since resided.
The remains of the deceased arrived here
on Wednesday's train for interment in the
Masonic cemetery, where her husband and
daughter were buried. Many of her old
friends were at the depot and followed the
body to its final resting place. At the
grave Dr. E. J. Thompson made a few
touching remarks. The deceased leaves
two childreu, a son and daughter, Edwin A.
Thayer and Mrs. Clara M. Harding.
The Raber Gold Machine.
All doubts which may have existed here'
tofore regarding the usefulness of the Raber
gold machine have been entirely dispelled
by the glowing reports made by Mr. Raber
while here last Satnrday. Several tempt
ing offers have been made him by capitalists
for shares in the invention, bnt so far they
have been declined.- Ten machines are now
packed and ready for shipment to the Mam
moth mine, located near Tucson, Arizona.
Captain Johnson, who was manager of .the
mine for several years, returned' Sunday
from New York where he went some time
since in the interest of the company. What
success he met with has not been learned
although it is generally supposed that suf
ficient capital has been secured- to commence
operation on a large scale. . Captain Johc
son, Mr. Raber, and J. R. Bryson, the
company's attorney, left for Portland on the
noon train Monday. .
Word reaches us that Bert Waugh, a for
mer brakeman on the C P. passenger train,
was recently shanghaied, at Coos Bay,
where he had gone to work. It seems that
Bert was working on the : vessel, helping to
load it. Just before the load was completed
the mate sent him down in. the hold to work
and while he was down there the vessel got
under way and sailed with Bert an unwill
ing passenger. The vessel was San Francis
co bound.' however, and it is more than like
ly that Bert was perfectly satisfied to le
shanghaied after he got over his scare. To

The O. P. Receivers, And The Salem
Journal. -
In January last, when- the ''only first
class, 18-year-old, ten thousand dollar" rail
road man in the world, hung himself up on
the last remaining peg of the Oregon Pacific
railroad, after having 'played with the cars
for ten months, and after the appointment of
Mr. Clark as receiver, the Salem Journal
sent up a terrible howL and bitterly de
nounced Judge Fullerton for appointing to
the position a man who had been in the em
ploy of the former receiver. It howled so
long and so loud on a subject on which it
was superlatively ignorant, that it became
exceedingly wearisome even to glance at its
headings. It is gratifying now, however, to
observe that the Jonrnal is singing a very
different song. It has evidently maey the
happy discovery that there is not the slight
est resemblance, in any particular, between
Mr. Clark and his eloquent and accomplish
ed predecessor; that he is not only an honest
man, but a railroad man as well, though he
is too modest to advertise himself to the
world as such, with a capital of IS years
experience, wnicn has been ot great benent
to the O. P. R. R., etc., etc.; that he is
ra inagiug the road on business principles,
not using it as a plaything; that he is grad
ually regaining the traffic which the brilliant
railroad mft most generously gave away to
he other transportation companies; that he
has paid all expenses out of the actual earn
ings of the road. This goes to show what
fie condition aud circumstances of the road,
the employes, and the material men might
have been in had Mr. Clark been appointed to
the position ten months earlier in the game,
before the concern had been shot to pieces.
I beg respectfully to suggest a correction
in the Journal's figures. It says Hadley
operated the road at a monthly loss of from
$600 to $700, this is altogether too modest
for the aforesaid gentleman; $6,000 to $7,000
comes very much nearer to being the correct
Hemes. I believe Mr. Clark does not in
tend to write a history of the O. P. R. R.
nor allow himself to be used as a tail to any
body's kite. H. H.

The Complexion of a Chinese
Is not yellower than that of an unfortunate
individual whose liver complaint has assum
ed the chronic form. The eyeballs of the
sufferer assume a saffron bue, there is dull
pain in the region of the organ affected, the
tongue is coated, breath sour, sick headaches
usually but not always occur, and there is
sometimes dizziness on rising from a sitting
posture. Constipation and dyspepsia are also
attendants or tnis very common ailment,
always in its aggravated form, liable to breed
abscesses of the liver, which are very dan
gerous. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters wholly
eradicates it, as well as the troubles compli
cated wun it ana whicn it originates: in
chills and fever, a complaint which always
yields to the Bitters, the liver is seriously
involved, ibis one alterative tonic removes
costiveness and indigestion, rheumatic, nerV'
ous and kidney trouble and debility.
Mr. W. Gifford Nash assisted in the Men
delssohn concert Monday evening at
Albany. That his efforts were appreci
ated is evidenced by the following taken
from the Democrat: "Mr. W. G. Nash, of
Corvallis, was heard in four selections on
the piano. He is a comprehensive player,
does his execution with feeling, and shows
the splendid training he has received. He
is a master of technique, and undoubtedly
has a bright futnre as a pianist."

ing a site for the proposed station, Major
Blakeney, superintendent of the life-saving
service on this coast, and captain Hooper,
captain of the' marine service, in company
with Wm. M. Hoag, made the bay a visit
last Thursday. Until the land has been
purchased the bite selected will be kept a
secret. It is saul,however, that a boat
house will be built on one of the beaches,
and that a large surf boat will be kept in
side of the bar near one of the jetties.

mendations have been sent to Washington
and as soon as approved by the authorities
their plans and specifications for the build
ings and life-saving aparatus will he im
mediately sent out, when bids for construc
ting the same will be asked for. Xbe
movement is a commendable one and will
prove a safeguard to life and property which
has long been needed and which will in
crease in usefulness as the business of this
growing seaport contiuues to increase.
My wife was confined to her bed for over
two months with a very severe attack of
rheumatism. We could get nothing that
would afford her any relief and as a last re
sort gave Chamberlain's Pain Balm a trial.
To our great surprise she began to improve
after the first application, and by using it
regularly she was soon able to get op and
attend to her house work. E. H. Johnson,

symptoms appear, they can ward off the
disease. Such persons- should always keep
the Rem -dy at hand, ready for immediate

at the right time will save them much suf
fering. For sale by Graham & Wells.

Anticipating the Wilson Bill. '
These times our people have but little
cash; most of them are inclined to blame
the present administration for this condi
tion of affairs. Probably they are right.
bnt whatever the cause, the fact remains
undisputed if a merchant wishes to do bus
iness he must count on little or no profit
and put his wares to low that the elephant-
. -t , ... . .
iroaaen purses oi ine commuuity can reach
them. Mr. Kline seems to recognize this
fact, and a large sign iu front of his store
proclaims, "Our entire stock of clothing
must be sold iu the ii6xt sixty days at new
tariff prices." Mr. Kline is a man of bis
word and no doubt in this case means what
he says. . His stoek of clothing is complete
and well selected.
