THANKSGIVING.
Once more Thanksgiving day came and
Bas gone. Asa day of universal rever
ence and thanksgiving, it is pleasurable
to note that it is appropriately recognized
throughout the land. Since the martyr
ed Lincoln issued the first national proc
lamation, its observance has become
more general each year, until bow there
is scarcely a village or hamlet in the
country that does not have its union re
ligious services. It is a time when the
souls of the people are stirred with char
itable impulses, and the poor and af
flicted are remembered with substantial
gifts.
From the proper observance of the day
many lessons of value are taught and the
world is benefited thereby. What is a
more fitting example for us to follow.
. thau the lesson in charity, which we de
rive from the celebration of each Thanks
giving day? We note our selfish inclina
tions, and attempt to live for others as
well. We may have acquired a habit of
penuriousne&s; a desire to get all we can
and keep all we get This evil is found
to exist, not only in individuals, but in
society and politics, and even in the
church. As selfishness ' abounds among
ns as individuals, in just such proportion
will it exist in corporations, communities
and states. To eliminate its effeets. we
must remove the cause. Those who
make society, money, fame, or what not,
their idol their be-all aod end-all of ex
istence become veritable barnacles.
They take from their fellows everything
that will forward their own 6elSsh inter
ests and give nothing in return. This
total devotion to self, stunts and shrinks
their finer sensibilities. Sympathy, af
fection, benevolence, pity and kindred
virtues become unknown quantities in
their make-up. Each opportunity to
speak a kind word, relieve the suffering,
lessen the burden of the down-trodden,
or give to the needy, that is allowed to
pass by unnoticed, lessens the power of
enjoying that which we have. Charity
and unselfishness go hand in hand, and.
do not mean merely the disbursement of
money and other valuables among those
less liberally endowed than ourselves; it
means more. Kind words and pleasant
smiles co6t only the effort, and are so of
ten absent where wealth and luxury
abound. Charity for the faults and
foibles noticed in others would add much
to the world's happiness, and in so do
ing we bring pleasure to ourselves. ' Self
ishness relieves U9 of the full measure of
enjoyment; and charity and unselfishness
necessitate self-sacrifice. Through life it
should be constantly borne in mind that
every heroic act requires self-sacrifice;
that every charitable impulse carried in
to effect, necessitates self-denial. With
the return of each Thanksgiving day,
these thrcths are "brought to our notice.
By the proper appliation of their teach
ings the world becomes better with each
succeeding year. It is indeed a great day
among the American people and its prop
er observance should be encouraged by
all.
TWO CONSISTENT REPUBLICANS.
Mr. Lord is the most unobjectionable
candidate that can be entered in the
coming senatorial contest against Mr.
Dolph. Thus .far, not a word has been
Baid against his ability, learning, integ
rity or fitness for the position. Of Mr.
Lord's political fidelity, and the solid
claims he has thus established upon the
confidence and support of the republican
party, it is scarcely necessary to speak.
Iu its eyes his record is peculiarly fault
les3. Simply because he was elected
governor, some are inclined to oppose
his candidacy, because, if he enters the
senatorial race, he will be successful, and
they feel as though he ought to fill the
place to which he was elected. This is
simply no argument at all, and many of
those who are urging it seem to forget
that Harrison R. Kincaid was elected on
same ticket with Mr. Lord, and that, in
the event the latter is chosen senator, Mr.
Kincaid would fill the executive's chair
with dignity and honor to the state.
Mr. Kincaid has been identified with the
interests of Oregon for over forty years.
He has always been known us a consist
ent republican, and his successful busi
ness career, together with his long resi
dence iu the state, is conclusive evidence
especially to those who know him best
that he is in every way familiar with the
needs of the people, and in all respects
competent to fill the honorable position.
He is one of the known journalists in
the state, and has been a prominent and
powerful figure in the sphere of his pro
fession, lie has advanced with the
growth of the country, and has that
knowledge ot its needs and future possi
bilities can only be gained by such a long
continued residence and careful noting
of its history as Mr. Kincaid ia the
course of his newspaper career, has ex
ercised. His 'editorial history shows him
to have a broad, intelligent grasp of re
publican principles, asitl bespeak in iiim-j
a thorough fitness for the high post of
honor which he would be called upon to
fiil in the event Mr. Lord is chosen, to
succeed Mr. Dolph.
A MAINE editor answered a farmer's J
query. "Do hos pay ?" by a reference to j
'"is i-!iniuent subscribers" Ksi. I
CREDITS SHOULD BE TAXED.1
Mr. Davenport in another column
undertakes again to show that when
credits are taxed the debtor pays the tax.
The record fails to show this. ; Under
the operation of the old mortgage tax
law a more general listing of property
was had than now, and the amount of
notes assessed then was far iu excess of
the notes assessed ui?der the present law. ;
Besides-, thousands of dollars were loaned
then, while since the present law went
into effect it has been almost impossible
to get any money at all. Most of the
mortgages in Oregon are now takifig
every bit of income from the farm to pay
the interest. True, it was a voluntary
agreement to pay 7, 8 or even 10 per cent
interest. But the mortgage is yielding a
good income and, on the other hand,
the' farmer is struggling to meet the in
terest, and on top of that must pay the
taxes, which is at lea9t two per cent
additional, jfow, then, if capital wishes
to seek investment in Oregon it ought to
pay taxes oa its interest in the property
which secures its investment. There is
no equity in compelling a borrower to
pay tax on the cash value of his property
with no deductions for indebtedness.
The constitution presumes that all per
sons will pay on what they are worth;
not on what they owe. If a farmer has
title to property worth $6,000 in cash,
and against such property is a mortgage
indebtedness of $3,000, the farmer is
worth really but $3,000. Yet, under the
present law, he should be assessed for
$5,ooo, and the mortgagee is expected to
list his note for assessment also. This
results in a double taxation on $3,000.
Both debtor and creditor have paid the
tax, which disproves the idea that ouly
the debtor pays it. The advantage of
allowing the debtor to furnish a schedule
of his indebtedness, is for the purpose of
obtaining a more general listing of cred
its than is possible under the operation
of any other plan. It relieves the law of
its otherwise inquisitorial feature, and
compels the creditor class to pay taxes
on all the property they possess, or have
an interest in, and no more. No honest
man will object to paying his just pro
portion of the tax so long as he knows
that his neighbors are paying their pro
portion. But he does object when his
neighbor, who owns a half interest in his
property by virtue of a mortgage, is pay
ing 'less taxes than himself. By per
mitting him to list that mortgage and,
after paying the tax on his property,
allowing him to turn over to the mort
gagee his receipt for the amount of tax
paid on the mortgage, and have it applied
in payment of the debt; both have their
just proportion and no more. Govern
ments and formed for the advancement of
society and the protection of life and
property. Taxes are collected for the
maintenance of the government. The
holder of a mortgage is virtually an
owner in the property which secures it,
to the face value of the mortgage. If
this be true, he deserves the same benefit
from the government that the real owner
of the property does, and he should pay
his proportion of the tax. Credits ought
to be taxed, because of the interest they
evidence iu tangible property, and there
is no reason why the debtor should pay
it
Commendable have been the efforts of
our police force to prevent minors from
frequenting saloons. In this they have
met with hearty co-operation from a
majority of the liquor dealers who realize
that it is a violation of the law, and are
therefore anxious to keep the boys out of
their places of business. In the meritor
ious work, however, the assistance of the
parents is absolutely essential. In some
instances this has not been received; in
fact, the efforts of police have been oft
times been thwarted by fathers who have
become so degraded that they totally dis
regard their children's welfare and seem
to desire that their boys become as de
based and demoralized as themselves.
Only last week an officer attempted to
eject a minor from a saloon, when the
father interfered, and informed the
representative of the law that he was that
boy's father, and that he could stay there
if he so desired. On this account, the
officers arc many times blamed for an
apparent neglect of duty. But it is safe
to say that in the matter in question they i
have doue their full duty, and instead of
reproaches they should be heartily com
mended for their efforts.
Portland now has both senators, j
This is unfair. Dolph is a corporation
lawyer, and loyalty to his cleints interests
has been characteristic of his twelve.years'
service in the senate. He is a ringster,
and that is a serious objection to his .re
election. His pets and relatives were
remembered iu doling out fat political
plumbs. One of them is now said to be
sojouring in China for his health be
cause a United States jury found him
guilty of smuggling; while others are
under indictment for similar offenses.
Dolph is the bosom friend of such fel
lows as "Dave" Hill, and has ever proved
an invaluable assistant in forwarding the
interests of Tammany. The return of
such a man as this to the senate, accord
ing to one or two state papers, is the sum
total of republicanism.
, In Ohio a farmer painted his house
white. It rained before the paint was
dry, and the rain carried plenty of white
lead into the cistern. Then they all
drank the water, and six members of the
family are dying. It requires some sense
to keep alive, even in Ohio.

; FLA TTERING PROSPECTS.
Corvallis has reason to congratulate
herself on her business prospects. The
carriage factory is now on a sound basis;
by the first of the year the manufacture
of farm wagons will begin. They will be
similar to the celebrated Moline wagon,
except that steel gearings will take the
place of wooden ones. It is said that the
Corvallis company has refused $60,000
for its right to the manufacture and sale,
on this coast, of the patent gearing
which will be used in the construction of
farm wagons. This certainly indicates
that the enterprise is a large one and its
beneficial effects will soon be felt to a
marked degree. Orders for the necessary
material have already been placed,' and
will begin to arrive soon. As the busi
ness enlarges a corresponding increase in
the number of employees will be made.
Salesmen are now on the road and indi
cations for a very large trade is assured.
The factory has already established a
reputation for high class work, and is fast
becoming one of the leading enterprises
of the coast Their output comes direct
ly into competition with eastern manu
factured vehicles and will save to the peo
ple of Oregon thousands of dollars which
have heretofore been sent east Under
the present able management the con
cern will continue to add wealth and
importance to the city in which it is
located. It was really a boon to Corval
lis when the present management as
sumed charge, and the entire country
will, wish it success.
Besides the factory, a steam laundry
has recently been added to the business
interests of Corvallis, and is giving
promise of success. And now there is a
prospect that the old foundry will be
opened permanently. The building and
machinery has been leased for a period
of six months to J. R. Franklin, of
Springfield, Lane county, with the option
of purchasing it at the expiration of that
time. Mr. Franklin is an experienced
machinist, and intends operating a com
plete foundry and machine shop. Such
an industry has long been needed here
and as there seems to be a splendid out
look for the business it will no doubt
succeed. On all lines there seems to be
an increase of trade, and confidence is
being gradually restored. With a single
exception, there are no vacant business
houses, and only a few residences are
offered for rent. Such confidence pre
vails in but few towns in the state, and
Corvallis has reason to congratulate her
self that so many wheels of industry are
now gaily singing the song of prosper
ity. -
Of all the votive holidays in the Yan
kee calendar, Thanksgiving day doubt
less holds the first place in the mind and
heart of every true American. The day
itself may be stormy, cold, or bright; but
atmospheric conditions have little in
fluence on the spirit of any person who
is disposed to solemnly pause, for even a
brief moment, to think of the wondrous
blessings vouchsafed by a smiling and
overruling Providence. The palate may
be tickled by many good things on the
table; the conventional jests and the
old-time anecdotes have a gala signifi
cance, because, even though you have
experienced it all before, this occasion
has a peculiar charm and repose of its
own. At all events, Thanksgiving
is a splendid institution, if for no other
reason than that it gives most persons a
chance to eat until he or she absolutely
refuses to eat anything more. Truth.
A PARABLE.
And GroTr Cleveland, seeing the multi
tude of republics!) voters, rose up and went
iato the woodly woods, and when he wu
set his lieutenants came unto bim and he
opened bin month and taught them, saying:
"Bleated i the republican party, for they
own the United States. Blessed is the
d.raooaatio party, for they have yet a little
while to stay. Blessed are the populists,
for they got a few congressmen. Blessed
are the prohibitionists, for they can boo the
errors of all other parties."
And he said unto them:
"Verily, verily, I say unto you, unless ye
bi republicans and protectionists, ye can iu
nowise get office iu the United States."
And his lieutenants said onto him:
"Master Grovur, why oan't we get office,
and why do tho people dislike our policy?"
And master Grover answered and said
unto his lieutenants:
"Yea, we believe in free trade, we believe
ia foroiga countries having the same privi
Iega iu tbis country as our own citizens;
believe ia free wool and taxed sugar; we
believe in free lumber and taxed coal. Yea,
we believe in everything to bene tit foreign
ers and letting America look out for herself.
And I say unto you that the voters of this
country believe in protection to American
industry andjto American labor."
And they said unto him:
"Yea, we have had two years of the
promised free trade, aod we thank thee that
during that time, many railroads want into
the hands of receivers. We thank thee
that many banks have failed. We thank
thee that the factories of this country
closed their doors, and we thank and adore
thee that we have nothing to do. We
thank thee for free soup and free clothing.
We thank thee foroheap horses. We thank
thee for oueap wheat ' We thank thee for
everything that has happened in the past
two years. But, oh, Master Grover! We
lament and feel sad ia our hearts that our
terms of office will soon expire, and our
salary will soon pass into eternity, and our
places be filled by " republicans. Bat we
praise and adore Master Orover, that in two
years more there will be another election,
but we fear Master Grover, that the voters
of this country will not change their minds
materially by that time." And Master
Grover said unto them, "grace be with you.

ABOLISH TAXATION OF CREDITS.
Editor Gazette: . ' .
In your paper of the 16th Nov. you say
that I attempt in my former letter to defend
the present iniquitous assessment law.
Please let me suggest a slight correction
of that statemeas. The present law taxes
the credits of our own citizens, bat by the
repeal of the mortgage tax law does not tax
foreign -credits. That is as much as to say
that au Oregon bebtor who borrows domes-'
tic capital is taxed by his creditor, while if
he borrows of foreign loan - companies he
pays none. This is au unjust discrimination
which- ought to be abolished. Hence I favor
the repeal of all laws taxing credits.
Why should A get money or credit at 7
or 8 per cent, per annum while B must pay
10 ? This inequality ought to be remedied,
and can be by repealing the laws as afore
said. There is only oue other way to rem
edy the injustice, viz., by restoring the
mortgage tax law, when thi foreign lender
can tax our citizens and wa shall be where
we were before its repeal.
Allow me to say that your scheme is not
more favorable to the debtor than the pret
ent law. In fact, it is practically equiva
lent. Under your plan a debtor will be
assessed upon all the property in his name,
and pay tax upon it the same as now. If
j he pays, say two per cent, tax on his debts,
his creditor will charge him two per cent,
more as interest aod there will be nothing
to deduct from his tax or assessment. This
dodge has been tried-many times, but an
: agreement betweeu the creditor renders it
' nugatory. If the rate to Le paid for the
use of credit were not a subject ot agree
; ment between the debtor and creditor, then
' taxes could not be shifted, and legislators
might have their own way ; but as long as
the sacredneBS and obligations of contract
are respected by the state, the wishes of
legislators will be fruitless.
For the sake of brevity let me summarize
the points under discussion, as follows:
When credits are taxed the debtor must,
as a rule, pay the tax for the reason that
such au agreement is usually made between
debtor and creditor when the loan is nego
tiated, and statutory regulations are power
less to prevent it.
Taxation of credits results in double tax
ation of tho debtor unless he is allowed to
deduct from his assessment -the full amount
of his debt.
But deductions of indebtedness, even
when guarded by tho most iuquisitorial
laws and tho severest penalties, opens so
wide a door for fraud that not only credits
bub millions of dollars' worth of real and
personal property escape taxation.
The operation of such a system in this
stats for uearly forty years proved that it
was no benefit to honest debtors but a trav
esty of any proper system of government.
Where credits are taxed and deductipn for
indebtedness allowed, all fairly and squarely
done, the debtor is stiil taxed upon all the
real and personal property in his possession
or ownership, just the same, and to the
same extent as though debts and credits did
not enter into the computation. When
every solvent credit is assessed and every
proper ' deduction ' allowed the state can
never get a cent of tax oat of tho transac
tion for the r.ssoa that debts and credits
must always balance, and nothing remains
as the s abject of taxation.
Hence, if under the latter supposition the
state can get nothing, and it does not pro
mote justice among men, why iu the name
of common sense juggle with it any longer?
Why not wipe all such laws from tho stat
ute books at once, and, as the boys say,
quit monkeying with suoh business ?
Some people can never get over thinking
notes of hand should be taxed ; but why
tax notes ? A note is not wealth ; it may
not represent wealth. At best it may rep
resent wealth in tho debtor's possession, but
this wealth has beeu taxed or is subject to
taxation. Or it may stand for wealth yet to
be created. In either case it is absurd to
tax the note; in the first place, because the
property for which it' stands has been taxed
and in the second place because it ia taxing
a fiction, a contingency. There is no good
reason for trying to tax credits; let ua
abandon the attempt

Haunted.
A haunted house in these practical and
unromantic days is something of a rarity,
but an individual haunted with the idea that
his ailment is incurable is a personage fre
quently met with. Disbelief in the ability
of medicine to cure is only a mild form of
monomania, although in some cases repeated
failures to obtain relief from many different
sources would almost seem to justify the
doubt Ilostetter's Stomach Bieters has
demonstrated its ability to overcome dys
pepsia, constipation, liver and kidney trou
ble, malarial complaints and nervousness,
and its recorded achievements in the cura
tive line ought at least to warrant its trial by
any one troubled with either of the above
ailments, even although his previous efforts
to obtain remedial aid have been fruitless.
