The Times is usually content to skim the surface in discussing great questions of general inter est. It seldom philosophises or makes scientific investigations. But this financial agitation is af fecting men of all calibers and occupations. Political economists as well as political history are be ing made rapidly, and even child ren discuss "parity," "ratio," "mint value," "repudiation," and the various phrases that enter into financial arguments. The Times is not content to repeat commonalities. It wants to throw into the lieaVing sea of monetary debate the calming oil of origi nal and overwhelming proof. "He who would search for pearls must dive below." The Times dove and returned to the surface with a remarkable contribution. The world should hearken for the Times has discovered: 1st. The fact that Wallis Nash was born an Englishman. 2nd. The fact that Mr. Nash does not believe in free coinage of silver at 16 to 1 There we have the major prem ise and the minor premise. Does not the conclusion inevitably fol low, "The gold standard system is exclusively and damnably En glish and should be banished from America?" Q. E. D. ;lfit every populist sieze a broom aud help brush this hateful English sys tem from the land. We'll adopt the policy of Mexico and Japan. ,Who would be an Englishman when he can be a Greaser? The Times is right. It must be right. Look at its logic. In comparable and unanswerable. And expressed in choicest . and most forcible- language. Laiu guage? Language? What lan guage? Oh misery of miseries! Come rocks and mountains! Fall tears; and were every drop a boil ing ocean, ye could not drown the anguish. For the Times, the multi-coated, popocratic Times; the noble American,- English hating Times, uses Oh crown of thorns! uses Oh cross of gold! The Times uses the En glish language! Notwithstanding their dis appointment and chagrin con cerning the inexcusable defiance of the rules of propriety and wis dom on the part of the board of regents of the Agricultural col lege, the citizens of Benton coun ty know that the institution will be a blessing to the young men and women who enter its halls in search of a practical education. The institution is splendidly equipped in all its departments, and the various branches are in the hands of competent profes sors. The dean of the faculty, Professor F. Berchtold, who will be the head of the school as re eards instruction, is an intelli gent, cultured gentleman;-- :who has a happy faculty of governing . . . ' r iT- wunout arousing antagonism, ne - is the senior member of the fac ulty, having been connected with the school for over twelve years, "You shall not crucify .man kind upon the cross of gold" says the shallow Nebraska boy. Ah, it was not the cross that hurt, Brother Bryan. And it is not the cross of gold that is hurting us now. It is to that cross that the hope of .the American people clings, amid the raging storms of populism. The nails, the cruel nails brought the agonizing tears : and let the precious blood. It is from the nails of silver that we shrink, Brother Bryan. The nails with which you would pierce the hands and feet of American com merce and let the life blood of American prosperity. f The boy orator would not put "a crown of thorns upon the brow of labor," but he is busy sowing thorns and thistles for labor naked feet. FALLACIES CONCERNING RISE AND FALL OF PRICES. The silver mine owne owners in advocating the free and un limited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, claim that prices of all commodities have sustain ed an "unexampled and ruinous fall," beginning with the year 1 Six. and that the cause of the decline of such prices is wholly due to the fact that in 1873 a law was passed by the congress of the United States which dropped the coinage of the legal tender silver dollar, of which up to that time, had been coined, all told, about eight millions of dollars, none of which had ever gone into cir culation as money in the ordinary channels of trade. They further claim that to resume the free coinage of the silver dollar and give it unlimited legal tender qualities at the ratio of 16 to 1, would cure all the ills of human ity and cause the prices of com modities to advance to the old time high place, aud would also advance the price of silver bul lion to the coinage value at the ratio of 16 to 1. Careful consideration of this matter, however, will convince the most skeptical that the act referred to had nothing whatever to do with the rise and fall of prices. The fundamental trouble with the army of free silver ad vocates, is that they take the year 1873 as tne tme from which every thing is reckoned. 1 o them all time prior to that is insignificant and all prior history is efFaced and held for naught It is a fact, as abundantly shown by statistics of prices, that the decline in the price of commodi ties for a period of 25 years from 1818 to 1843 was very similar and nearly exactly the same as since 1873, and that the year 1818 was not the beginning of a fall in prices, but such prices had been gradually falling for several years prior thereto; so that com pared with the period of 1873 the iatter was not the beginning of a fall in prices which we have wit nessed since that time, but the decline began about the-year 1865 at the close of the civil war. And those prices, which had been in flated by causes brought on by the war, began to decline at the close of the war when the causes which made the rise ceased to exist, and the ratio of supply and demand became differently ad justed. For like reasons those prices have continued to decline to the present day. The omis sion to continue the coinage of the silver dollar, which had never been used in the trade or business of the country, was not in , any sense the cause of the declining prices. . Under the Bland act ot 1878 there were coined four hundred and thirty millions of legal ten der silver dollars - which are now in circulation so far as the people will have them, yet this immense coinage of silver did not in any particular check the fall in prices nor assist the rise in the price 01 silver, but the decline in prices continued the same as had been the case since 1865. The varying value of money as related to goods, between 1789 and 1809, fell in the ratio of 100 to 54, or 46 per cent; that is, the average price of commodities rose enormously during those years. From i8oq to 184Q the value of money again rose in the extraor dinary ratio of 100 to 240, or by 14.0 per ceut; that is, there was an extraordinary fall in prices dur ing that time, which, in extent, greatly exceeds the tall in prices since 187 7.. lhe tall in prices prior to 1873, was during the time that silver men are pleased to call the bi-metahc period. The long period of fifty-six years from 1809 to 1865 was no ted, first by a tremendious fall fol lowed by a great rise in prices. though the price of silver varied but little during that time. Thus it is never stated by the advo cates of free silver that during that long period when silver had "free access to the mints" it cut no figure in preventing the fall of commodities or in preventing their rise. It seemed then to have none of the qualities now ascrib ed to it. That the act ot 1873 had any thing to do with the decline of prices is not borne out by the can did facts. The fall commenced in 1865. The war had the effect of raising the price of every thing, but when the war closed, the causes which made possible the greatly advanced prices were re moved, and from that time down to the present, prices have con tinued to decline and silver had nothing to do with their fall. Prices were regulated by that un yielding law of nature, the law of supply and demand. Governor Lord gives out as the excuse for supporting Miller that the opposition, favored Prof. McElroy for president of the col lege. This statement is untrue and misleading. ' Mr. McElroy was not a candidate, aud Messrs. Apperson, Nash, Yates, Hillery, Keady and Weatherford had not the slightest intention of support ing him. Besides, it looks rather improbable that seven members of the board should be afraid that six would elect an especially ob jectionable president and that in order to defeat the supposed ef forts of the six, it was necessary to select au equally unsatisfactory man. The governor makes him self extremely ridiculous as well as something worse in giving in spiration to such a clumsy, trans parent falsehood. Why should the American peo ple be slaves to a ratio, an artifi cial, dishonest ratio? Our fore fathers, fresh from the war for independence, establishing a mighty nation upon the rock of truth and freedom, took the mar ket ratio of the world as the ra tio for coining gold aud silver. Let us follow in their footsteps. They were wise and patriotic statesmen. Let us not introduce the hot-house idea "into our mon etary system. Bryan would not use the gold standard, because England uses it, yet Mr. Bryan would flood our market with English wares, drive our own working men out of em ployment, for the benefit of the English laborer, and destroy the home market of the American farmer, that the English manu facturer might prosper. From Our Exchanges. ' Watson, Bryan's populist run ning mate, is the, congressman from Georgia who kept the 52nd congress in uproar by his attacks on Bryan, and the two men are bitter enemies, and always have been. Here is an extract from one of Watson's speeches, where he had a little fun at Bryan's ex pense: "On the other hand, we have our handsome and brilliant friend . from Nebraska (Bryan), who was put forward as the 'dar ling' of the democratic side ot the house, the prettiest man in all the bunch, and his entire speech, which ranged Tom Moore's poet ry to Joe Miller's jest book, was the sum and substance of the old democratic position on the tariff I that 'We will practice what is wrong, while we know what is right' " Portland Chronicle. The populist convention at St. Louis was no more harmonious than was the Chicago convention. The populists for gain want to fuse with the democrats and endorse Bryan, while the populists with principles want to build a platform and nominate a ticket of their own. The strife between the two factions is bitter indeed. Hillsboro Inde pendent. ' Just thirty-two years passed af ter the democratic split in 1860 before that party regained posses sion of all branches of the govern ment. Again there is an impress ible conflict in the democracy and again there is a smash up. How long a quarter of a century, a half of a century will the de mocracy be under the ban tnis time? Or will the democracy disappear after this canvass as the federalist, the national republican and the whig parties did long ago? Oregon Mist. .. Jonathan Bourne has not yei resigned as secretary of the repub lican state central committee, nor is he likely to, since a large ma jority ot the republicans of the state have confidence in his repub licanism and ability to do efficient work for the party. The howl that the Oregonian and a few of the i'old ringsters "are making against Mr. Bourne are direct thrusts at McKinley and Hobart in this state, for should Mr. Bourne be compelled to resign, the indig nation among silver republicans would lose the party several thous and votes in the coming election There can be no question about this. But what cares the Orego nian whether McKinley is elected. That paper is anything but repub lican, according to its own state ments, and also according to its at tempt to defeat a regular nominee of the party at the June election. Inert again it is a well known fact that the Oregonian has at all times at heart been in favor of free trade, and at different times in its exis tence lias openly advocated the same. How, then, can it bo sin cere in its support of the MoKin ley ticket or the tariff plank hi the platform? Indeed the republican state central committee should pay the reat daily something to open ly oppose McKinley. It would help them to carry this state. St. Helens Mist. v Alpine Echoes. ULys.

"Cures" or Tonics for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken internally, usually contain either Mercury or Iodide of Potassa, or both, which are injur ious if too long taken. Catarrh is a.local, not a blood disease, caused by sudden change to cold or damp weather. , It starts in the nasal passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat. Cold in the head caus'ss excessive Sow of mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re sults of catarrh will follow ; severe pain in the head, a roaring sound in the ears, bad breath, and oftentimes an. offensive dis charge. The remedy should be quick to allay inflammation andheal the membrane. Ely's Cream Balm is the acknowledged cure for these troubles and contains no mercury nor any injurious drug. Price, 50 cents.
