Vn Oregoiiian calmly and dispassionately gives the young voter a talk as follows: We ask the young men who are to vote 'hi year for the flrnt time, or for the first ti ne iu a Prthidetitial election to think for liemsilves a little before doing so; to con nidi r candidly the iiiiiiiii iiIh nnd reasons advanced by the Democrat leaders iu this oiiiitiy in support of their principles nnd their policy. Four years ago the young voters were tohf that the election of a Democratic President would be certain to ruin thee lutitry. Business would suffer; industries would languish; disaster and decay would spread o.(r the whole hind. Ths South would aain urcedc; the rebel debt would lie paid; tlio negroes would be helit buck into bondage, or at least deprived of the light of suffrage. A'otio of these tilings have happened. The existing evils we complain of are tlio result of the ll publican policy and legislation of former years, which it is impossible to at onco overthrow ami supplant with equal iiud just laws. But the President, and the majority of the Democratic party, are flrmly mil honestly determined to 'persevere iu the attempt to right these wrongs and give more exact and eveu-handed justice to thn people. The issue is not difficult, as some would have you believe; any farmer, uny laboring man of usual understanding, can grasp it at ouco. Thi Republican policy is to main tain liigli, extortionate mid unequal taxa tion, bearing most heavily upon the neces tnries of life, iu order to protect and favor certain classes, combinations, corporations, and ths money power generally, by the as sistance of all which it hopes to regaiu and retain power to further oppress the people. The Democratic party propone to treat all alike; lo collect nu more taxes than are necessary to economically adinitfistcr iho government; to make. all tlio necessar ies of life, used chielly by th poor, as cheap aude'is tree from taxation as possible; and to impifte the heavier bunions upon the luxuries of the rich, at the same time giving ihrin no protection by legislation iu their favor. This is the issue. It is clearly dcDued. Whatever delusive cries may bo rained, this is tlio practical position ot the two parties to-day, as announced by the President's message and the Dcmocratm platform on one bind' and by Mr. Blaine's letter, Slier mail's and Dolph's speeches, and tlio Re publican platform, on the other hand. As between the two, the Democratic party, while fur from perfect, is the peoplu's party. Its policy proposes to directly benellt and lighten the burdens now imposed upon all limners nnd workiug nis u. Tho Republican policy is to protie't certain classes mnuu Licturers, capitalists nnd monopolists, nt the expense of farmers and workiiigiiicn. On which side of tlio great economii rather than political question will voters array themselves? Andrew Carnegie bus made twenty-live million dollars ill the last tew years manufacturing iron, because ol this protection. That would buy half the farms iu Oregon. And evfry fanner in Ore gon who has shipped anything over n rail road or who has built a house, or bought a tool, of an article containing wool, or an) drug4 or chemjcals, lias been taxed on an nvera;s) over -10 per cent, of the proper cosi of those articles to give Mr. Carnegie his millions. This is only sue illustration out of hundreds. Where shall tho young votei be found, on the side of the protected, en riched and rapacious millionaires, who il allowed to have thiugs their owu way a while longer will owu the whole country, or on the other side, of the furmurH, th mechanics, the tradespeople, the toilers and uotuohuilders of the laud? This is the issue. This is the difference. This is the main question raised. Dou'l imagine Democrats me enemies of the coun try. On the other hand they are attempting by the policy they announce to protect tin country and the musses of the people from oppression and ultimate subjection. Think over these things, young loeii, before you cast your first vote, nnd cast it right. The necessities of partisanship are inexor aid .. The I'residont is denounced for having the English language taught iu Indian schools. An opposite course involves tin translation of text books into Indian dialects that have no alphabet, but this does not de ter the inake-ii-poiut-at-auy-price politician. -Alta.

At 1 olclock the House went into a committee of the whole, Springer, of Illinois, in the chair, for con sideration of the tariff' bill. No opposition was made to Mills' motion to this 11, ot. Mills begau his speech by saying that the treat iucr.usn of duties made during the war had been, at the lime they were made, stated to be ouly temporary, yet a quarter of a cen tury later these duties were higher than they were during the war, and they now averaged 47 per cent, on imports. An income tax had been imposed to meet the war expenses; it 'was gone. It was a tax on wealth, and tho $72,tKJO,iHK) iiiitiually realized from that source was swept away; but tho war tax on clothing, on food, on implements of labor re mained, and a wnt sas wtill being prosecuted against tho people, a fiscal war, exhausting iu its demands, and eviry effort to remove or lower that taxatiou hud la en resisted nuil defeated. There had been s tax on railroads, but it was gone. It had Hot livt d I ug after the war, It had been a tux on wealth. It was said to be oppressive to tax the wealthy. There hud been a tax ou insurance compan ies; it was gone. There had bi en a tax on bank deposits nnd hank capital; il was gone. Three hundred millions that had been paid by the wealth of the country had been swept away, ninf the burden of taxation had been made heavier, as it had been loaded upon the shoulders of tlnwe who had to support themselves and the? government. Was a tax of three per Cent, to be paid out of the pock- ts of the manufacturers of blankets a w ight more enormous than n tax of 7'J per cent, paid by the consumer on imported nnd do mestic products? Was a tax of three per cent, on incomes more oppressive than a tax of iUU per cent, on mouivu's mid children's dress goods? . Yet all these taxes on wealth had gone, and the griitlumen ot the u ntv boasted that they had reduced luxes to the amount of $3uO,0lKj,ti0ll, while, ihu 1). mo cratio party had reduced it only a bagatelle. That was a splendid coluuiu these gi nth men had erected. All the tax ou wealth had passed away, nnd nil the burdens had been placed upon the shoulders of the laboring mail. Iu 18H;l luxation had still further been leduced' and the niagnillceiit shaft which the party then in powcj had erected to com memorate its legislative wisdom and the beneficence of its laws was crowucd with the capstone taking oil tho internal xeveliue tax ou playing cards, and putting a tax of 'JO per cent, on bibles. The Democrats hud been taunted with the charge that they bud faded to reduce taxa tion. This charge bud been guilty of pre venting action on the many bills brought to the House by tho committee ou ways nud menus. Mills tinned bis attention to woolen manu factures, and argued that the public at large was injured by the present excessive tariff, and nobody benefitted. High duties prohib ited and limited importations nud exporta tion. We were feeding the people of Europe; and when wo put high duty on the goods they tent us iu exchange for food, t amounted to taxing our own agricultural ex ports. Reduction of duties would not. as Lias been asserted, cheek the manufactures and crump labor. c always imported more goods w hen prices were high, liuder lower duties we could export moro goods, niaiiu factories would run steadily and lubor would uo consliiutly employed. Not moro than ten per cent, of the goods consumed in the United States would bo imported if all the custom houses were gone ami he govern iiient fas suppoited by direct taxes. Protectionists agree that manufactured articles were cheaper hure than iu other country, as a result of protection. It was not so, but supposing that it Was, why, then, -diotild they resist so strenuously any effort 0 lower duties, if they were able to under--ell the European miinufaclurers'r1 Did th manufacturer pay higher wages because pVotcction enabled them to do it? No. Jay Gould was able to pay his bootblack $500, out be did not do it. He paid the market price; be paid bis nickle like a little man, Higher wages wtre uuidu by coal, steam .ml machinery, and higher wages meant lower cost of production. This accounted tor the fact that free trade Englaud paid uigher wages than protection France ami Germany, and yet controlled the world's market. He had requested tho present diief of the labor bureau to ascertain if there was auv exception to tho rule that wages de peuded ou the effleleucy ot lubor, uud the re sult of highly paid efficient labor, was the low cost of (tie product. Iu answer he rend 1 tabulated statement prepared by Mr. Wright, giving the result of the inquiry iu a number of cuses, which appeared to fully bear out tho rulo. Mills then proceeded with frequent cita tions from economic authors, and Irom tubu lated statements, to elucidate bi argument ilint the higher rate of wages iu this country , was not the result of Iho protective system. We bad crown rich, uro-wrou and nower. fui not liy the uid ot restrictions on foreign 'omnieree, nut in spue oi uiem, lie quoted tables to show that the tariff' wasnol intended to benefit the laborer; that the bent tits ol the tariff pass iuto the pockets of the manufac Hirers, and never come to the pocket of the laborer. Taking ii the case of s pair of blankets, where the tariff' exceeded the labor cost by f l.W, Mills declared that every dol lar of the excess was reaped by the manufac turers. Cram, of Texas, interrupted to ask how tho ways and means committee bad treated those blankets. Mills replied that it hnd reduced the tariff on blankets from $ 1.77 to 71 cents. Ap plause. Continuing, he said it was asserted that Congress bail intended to bem-iit the laborer by tlie tariff It had failed, and not a dollar of the protection afforded got beyond the manufacturer. He, however, hired his labor at the lowest rate, ill the open market. The committee bad left in tho bill more than enough protection to pay for nil labor, aud a bonus besides. The present policy was making a vast discrimination in the country between the. two classes one poer and numerous; one small, and powoifulaud rich. Concentration of the wealth of the country in the bands of s few men would overthrow our government. In conclusion be said tho bill was a very moderate one, yet it would send comfort ami happiness into all the homes of the poor laboring people of this country ; and he asked the House, iu behalf of these people, to con sider their claims and help reduce the bur den that hnd beeu loaded upon them. Mills spoke about an hour ami three-quarters, aud as be took bis seat he was surrounded by s crowd of Democra'ic members, who f re.&ed forward to tender congratulations. i
