Last wptk the Rfpulilicnui of the Scrmtr rejected the Otumla FihlM-rie Trmity, ptf gotiuted by tht AdiniiiiHtration. The J'rehi-. deut ut once sent a meHutge toCougreNii mik ing for swiping power of n-tuliiition HguinKt Cutittdii, in addition to the tmrnilexM bit of buncombe known as the ictttliiition bill, which only deprived Cuuadu of some nu valued p'iviliKen. Thut wan the only course lift the Presi dent. The bent treuty ertr negotiated on this question, whn not ereu considered. It was the Semite's right to amend the treaty, to strike nut every limine and sulstitute their own vjewi, hut they voted in a body auaiiiHt atuenilihtf the treaty, and axuiimt the treaty. They had no policy, tlwy hal nothing to pre aent the country, nothing but olwtruction. Tills qn -atiou, s with the surplus, l a leg acy of Kipuiilinitii rule. Why had they not aettled it in their twenty-four yearn of rule! W,y had they allowed American schooners to hi aeized? ' How m it that the United States paid Canada 3.500,000 in lHMl! Whatever cnnseipiunor may follow the Sen ate ia to he held reapoimihle. ' They will have no treaty nf any kind, and the President ha dona liix utnioxt to aucure our rights with honor, and to maintain amicahle relation with Canada. Ho tne(only alternative ia retaliation effective at that, evon If it should place the Republican (Senate between the devil and deep sea. Hold High the Flag1. President Cleveland's Meinnge. I fully bejieve the treaty juat rejected by the Senate wan well suited to the exigency, and that its provisions were adequate for our security iu the future from vexations inci dents, and for the promotion of friendly neiybborhood intimacy, without sucrilluinK iu the least our natioual pride or dignity. It is of importance to note that the treaty has been rejected without any apparent diapo sition on the part of the Senate to amend its provUlons. aud with the evident intention that uo negotiation should at present be con cluded touching the matter at inane. I am by no means diaiioKed to abaudon the interoHls aud rights ot our people in the premises or neglect their grievances, and therefore turn to the contemplation of the only jdun -that of retaliation which "till reumina of treating the nilua inn. Let n survey the ground calmly, and having put aside other mi una of settlement, if we enter upon a policy of retaliation lot lis pur ne it firmly nnd with a determination to subserve the (liferents of our people and maintain the high standard and becoming priile ol Ann ricun citizenship, Ttiurman Talks. Thurman is crowding a groat deul ( com mon aeiiMi into his cmnpaigu speeches. They fairly biixtle with facts. Read what hesajs: It is said that our tariff euahles the . man ufacturers to p iy high wages to their labor ing men. Did you ever know a manufact urer that paid higher wages to Lis handa be caiueofaniucreiheof the tariff? If you did. you have seen something I never did Notice how he mules ft strong poiut Iu this extract from allot tier speech: Whatman ever gut rich by having bis hard earnings taken out of his pocket bv taxation? And to aay that a couutry can be made rich by heavily taxing its people is an absurdity that nobody but a high protec tionist would dare to aasert. Andaguiu: And now to tell me that to take the labor ing uimu aud to tax him fioui the top of his head to the sole of his feet, and to tax him on everything that be us. s iu his trade, and w n uiiii iifuvuy, is in Hem iii uini, seems to me to be nothing but absurdity.

Now, what Is the matter with sheep? Twenty yean of a high tariff on wool has resulted in steady decrease iu the number of sheep east ot the Missouri river, and wool has been lower dui iug the past few years than it ever waa before. Tixed wool has crippled our woolen manufacturers without benefitting he sheep raisers. Now let us see what untaxed wool will do.

Graphic, begiuuiug August 12th. Suuday Wtlootue. R. B. Hayes, of Ohio, who drew Presi dent Tilden'a salary (or four years, expresses himself as well pleuaed with the Republican platform. This does uot signify, however, that Mr. Hayes would have added a return ing board to the platfoim bad he drafted it. It is hardly possible that Mr. HUine was thiuking of Mr. Carnegie'a steel trust wheu be said: "Trusts are largely private busi ness arrangements lth which the President has nothing to do." A-Republican paper aaya "Mr. Blaine does not Dud his speeches iu the Encyclope dia." True euough. The Encyclopedia deala with f.cL; Mr. Dlaiue deals exclu sivity with fiction.

A part, i aliasing. allied llarruon appear to be Cleveland And Canada. Sunday Welcome. The Republican Senate in refusing to con firm the fisheries treaty with Canada, which was (air alike to our northern neighbors and Americans, and in making no effort to im prove it with amendments, clearly showed a deposition to throw the onus of war or chickeu-hesrti diiesa npon I'resident Cleve land, who to tin ir snrpnse, gr.isp tbe sit uation manfully, and tells Congrex plainly that if they will not agree to amicable rela tions with Canada, they must begin an ag gressive and unremitting battle of retalia tion. If war results, aud it is not Improbable it is clearly the work of the Republican Senate, and the American people should be prepared for the worvt, uor should they shirk the responsibility. In tune of pea'ie prepare for war and esecially on the great lakes. Our seaboard defenses are not the only ones that need at tending to at this juncture by any means. Upon the eve of a rrtMOViiti.il election, the Reiiublicuu Semite has tried to make Cleveland appear as a weiik kneed coward, but he haa diMiiayed them by bravely seiz ing the other born ot the dilemma, anil pub lishes the (act thut if war grows out of the intended retaliatory measures forced npon him through political skullduggery, the blame lies at the door of the Republican Semite. Our farmers should feel jubilant. Crops are good, Prices of wheat promise to be Ht least belter than (or several yearn, nnd the stringency of the money market has caused very many to keep out of debt. Now, then, the great temptation is, in such cases, to run in debt, or to live extravagantly, so that at the end of another year, they will be uo better on than witn an average crop, ibey say that "fools give advice, aud wise men take it," but it would be the height of folly to can sucn a plain proposition as anking a man to lay up bU money for a rainy day such advice as betokens the fool. It is but culling attention to the situation which for us happens to be a fortunate one. Fortune cn not always so Hmile upon us. Next year the crops may be only half as large as this, aud the prices lower. Recognize the fact thut the present year is better tbau the average, aud make your calculations accord iugly. Blaine says the year 1887 was a prosper ous one. Three years ago Blaine said that II tbe democrats came into power the buai ueRS interests of the country would be de stroyed. It will be seen from this how little faith Is to be placed in anything the arch demagogue (rum Maine may say. Vukna, Aug. 27. The official report o( the world's harvest sjows that the wheat crop in Italy, France, Great Britain aud Rusxiau Podolia is from 20 to 25 per ceut. helow average, aud in Austro-IIuiigary, Southeastern Europe and Egypt from 20 to 30 per ceut. above the average. riuindesler: Sam llazlett, the ttamp priuter, so well known to newspaper meu on the coast, favored Roseburg with bis pres ence this week.
