Tito Ashland Tiding of rburailay con' Uins a lengthy anil graphic account of -tho grand reunion of the soldiers and sailors at Ashland last week. It was ono of the grandest gala days of that body of men who, in tho trying ordeal of our nation's life, stood a living wall against the enemie? of our old flag, Tlioso old veterans and their friends made np one of the largest assemblages of men and women that nave ever been convoked in Southern Oregon. The pro gramme was prepared by tho Posts and Women's Kelief Corps of Ashland and other towns of Jackson and Josephine counties. There were a largo number of distinguished citizens from nearly every county in the state. Wednesuay Mr. llerrman addressed the meeting. We give place to an account of his addrets as reportedly- the Tidings, as follows: At two p- m. the auditorium was again picked not less than 1200 people being present to hear the address of Hon. Bin- ger Hermann, member of congress from this district. Mr. Hermann has served his constituents so well and for so many years that the mere announcement ot his coming was sufficient to bring to gether the rank and file and patriotic people within reach. For two hours Mr. llerrman held his large audience, and those who have heard him often are unanimous in declaring that, though al ways cp to a high standard in his states manlike speeches, on this occasion 'Bcger" outdid himself. Those who failed to hear his speech missed one of the greatest treats of this, the most suc cessful session of the G. A. K, in Ore gon. The speaker in the most skillful manner called np innumerable evidences of the incalculable and unforeseen bene fits that have been derived from the pa triotic sacrifices of that grand army, and " showed how the resulting blessings con tinue as lime goes on. His handling of . statistics was so skillfully done that even they were made under his hand to elicit applause in the proofs furnished by dry figures alone. Ho spoke of the ro ncned spirit of liberty since the war, of our rivers and harbors, the modified doctrines of Calhoun as to internal and coastwise improvements and the widen ing and broadening of the principles of oar government, even beyooJ the con ception of its enthusiastic promoters at the foundation of it. He spoke with as surance of the early completion of the Xicaraugca canal and the possibilities to come from it. With force and eloquence be showed the source of much of the dis turbance we've suffered from, through the use the world has made of "Castle Garden" as a sewer through which Europe discharges into America her filth and slum, and provoked loud and continued applause in his climax, which declared that the gates of Castle Garden should be made to swing outward for outward for awhile. Space will not per mit of a detailed analysis. The speech was one of the ablest heard at Ashland for many a day, and the G. A. K. are to be congratulated on its success. Thursday as per programme after the nsnal preliminaries, Senator Mitchell was introduced amid a storm of applause, and in one of bis happy and statesmanlike addresses held the throng for an hour. Senator Mitchell has served the people so long aa U. S- senator and is so well known by them, always so royally received, that it would be pre sumption to attempt to repeat what he said or attempt to analyze his speech. A man of very extended experience, a rec ognized statesman among the great statesmen of the nation. Senator Mitchell is always ready with scholarly tact and ability to entertain and instruct. His dignified review of the progress since the rebellion, the handwriting of the veteran on the present foremost position of tho Great Republic among the nations of the earth, commanded that attention and applause to which it was entitled. The reception, the parade, and the rendering of the program at the auditorium, made np one of tits grandest ovations ever witnessed in Ashland. PARTIAL TO FOREIGNERS. Republicans are not surprised at the foreign leaning of the democratic party. They admonished the country in the last campaign that the tendencies of that party were towards free trade, which means the encouragement of for eign lalwr over American labor and a recognition of the superiority of foreign products over those of our own people. What sjiecial difference does it make to the American labor market whether art icle of consumption are produced by cheap alien labor here on our own soil, or njton the soil of Kuroief Asia and Africa, or the islamls of the sea, and then transported here free of duty, and jieriuitted to compete with like articles produced by our own ieople? The re iHilt is the same. And yet it is incom prenensible that so many of the Ameri can laborers will, on election day, shout themselves hoarse for a iarty which oienIy boasts tliat it will legislate for- a tariff for revenue only. Do they not re flect that they are ojiening the dikes, which in the end is to destroy their own sustenance, and to aljaudon the contest to the ryot of India, the serf of Russia, the coolie of China and the eager horde of Kuroje. Those who were so indifferent to their own protection an to have voted for a party so partial to foreign interests can see now in the change they have wrought the exact result. If free for eign products should m encouraged to come here, why not the foreign pauper laborer himself. The one competes with American lalwr as well as the other. In this sense the democratic party is perfectly consistent. It will admit the producer as well as the product. A change was wanted, and it came to their disadvantage. In 18JW another change vill nwnr, ami the free trade party, the imrly trucking to foreign in fluences, tho democratic party, will bo hurled from power, and cause it much lamentation for its deception, misrule, and unreliability to steer the ship of state in safety. REPUBLICAN PLATFORM 189a. The third plank in the platform of 1S92 relating to silver, reads: "Tho American people from tradition and in terest, favor bimulatism, and tho repub lican arty demands the use of both gold and silver as standard money, with such restrictions and under such provi sions, to bo determine! by legislation as will secure the maintenance of tho parity of value of the two metals, so that the purchasing and debt paying power of tho dollar, whether of silver, gold or paper, shall lie at all times equal. Tho interests of the producers of tho conn try, its farmers and its working men de mand that every dollar, paper, or coin issued by U10 government shall Ihj as good as the other." That pledge the republican party has kept. Its legislation has kept gold, sil ver and paper on an equality in purchas ing power the silver dollar being a legal tender for all debts, public and private, except by special contract it be other wise stipulated. Our populist friends aro everlastingly howling about the crime of 1S73, as they are pleased to call that act. They do not tell their deluded adherents that the government has coined more silver during tho 22 years since 1S73 than it had coined during SI years prior to that date. Notwithstanding this fact, the people of the United States, by reason of its inconvenience 16 times more inconvenient than gold refuse to handle it; not because f 16 of silver is not equal to $16 of gold in its purchas ing power, but because they prefer gold or paper for its greater convenience. Again they tell us the price of silver bul lion lias declined in value since 1S73. It is true it lias. That is mostly a coin cident and not the consequence of the passage of that act. But they say again: Silver went dwn much faster after than before its passage, therefore that act was the cause. "Well, for the sake of argument, we will allow it went down in conse quence. Then please tell us why silver lias advanced about 14 cents within the last year without any legislation specially favorable to silver? If the act of 1ST3 caused silver bullion to decline, what lias caused it to be gradually climbing back? Will some silverite tell us whv? THOSE PROMISED MARKETS. In lS92Xarmere were assured over and over again that if they would only turn in and elect Cleveland and a democratic congress, prosperity on a scale never ex perienced by them before, would at once be at their doors to overwhelm them with its blessings. Cleveland and dem ocracy had a scheme- for opening np tho "markets of the world" to American farm products that was certain to make every farmer rich in almost no time. Beguiled by the alluring prosiect, enough farmers were caught by these assurances toinsnrethe triumph of Cleveland and democracy in general. There lias been over two years of it since. The first year showed up poorly for the farmers, bat then the administration was so busy turning out the "robber" republicans to put democrats in their places that allow ances were possibly in order. The sec ond year, however, things would be different, and the "markets of Uie world" would be just fighting for American farm products. But by some sort of necro mancy the exhibit made is just the oppo site of what should have been expected by these deluded voters. Instead of a marked increase there has been a decided falling off in the demands for American farm products, and the one conclusion to be reached from the showing, therefore, is that the fanner has been fooled. The evils of the change have not been confined to the farmer, but almost every industrial enterprise has felt the injurious result of demo cratic role. No fooling the people again. CHANGE THE DATE. From the experience of the past four years it is demonstrated that we need not expect favorable weather in Septem ber for our district fair. In view of this fact it would be well for the manage ment to change the time of holding the fair to about the last week in August. The weather would then be favorable for camping, and then the hop and prune picking would not interfere with a general attendance of the people throughout the county. There is no use of trying to have a fair when business arrangements or the weather deter the people from attending, and without a general attendance of the farming com munity a fair is impracticable. The people of the county must take an in terest in a fair, give it their support or it will be, as experience lias shown, a lamentable failure. The Illinois bureau of labor statistics has solved the problem, and made pub lic at least one cause of U10 "hard times" among the poorer classes. It is not a new discovery by any means everybody has known it to his own satisfaction, or dissatisfaction, as the case may be, for lo these mauy years. The bureau charges that it is "directly traceable to the cor rupt system of taxation," and has com piled abundant statistics to prove it. The bureau takes tho position that "tax ation" is the chief instrument of tyranny. From the nature of the statistics we are inclined to think "evasion of taxation" would be a more appropriate term. The opposition of every newspaper in the British possessions will not delay the construction of the Nicargua canal a min ute. The opposition of tho railroads and other interested parties in this country may not delay it more. But nothing can put it off for long, and tho United States will control it and own all of it or the majority interests-Statesman. Tho rale of increase in population of soveral states of tho Union shows the re markablo growth of the Western states. New York's rate ot increase in popula tion for 100 years was not finite 17 per cent, while that of Illinois increased nearly 311 per cent in 90 years. Tho other western states have done nearly as We aro Indebted to the author, J. S. Diller, now in this city, for a copy of the Lassen Teak Folio of tho Geologic Atlas of tho United Slates. Tho Zoological Survoy is uiakint: largo tojtographlc maps and largo geologic maps of tho United Stales, which aro being issued together inthefoim of a Geologic Alios. Tho parts of tho atlas aro called folios. Each folio contains a topographic map aud n geologic map of a small section of coun try, and is accompaniod bj explanatory aud descriptivo toxts. Tho comploto atlas will comprise soveral thousand volumes. Mr. Diller informs us that maps of tho Itosohurg district will prob ably bo engraved this coming winter and that by imt winter tho atlas folios will be compjoted. This work is most com plete and thorough and will provo of in calculable boneGt to students and all others interested in tho geology of our country. Tho now board of fire and pollco com missioners of Omaha, Neb , it has been, decided, is legal and tho supremo court has issued an order lo oust the old board and place the new board in poweMii.n of the offices to which they were appointed. The old board upon hearing by telegram from Lincoln, that tho new board was sustained, immediitely "let go" their hold and turned the keys of the several offices with their books and papers, lo the new board. Thus it appears, that in Omaha, U10 A. P. A.'s have scored a point. It appears they had tho votes At all events the supremo court so de cided. Strange as it may seem to ono who has not examined tho matter, tho ter ritory of Alaska is nearly double the area of the thirteen original states of this Union. And its farthest extent of longitude west of San Francisco is greater than tliat east of San Francisco to Cape Fear on the Atlantic coast. And tho extent of longitude west of San Francisco embracing the westermostone of the Aleutian islands, which belong to Alaska, is of greater extent than that from San Francisco to the most eastern point on the coast of Maine. This vast territory is yet an almost terra incog nita. The Edinburgh Review advises Japan to "conceutrate your resources at home, and shun the treacherous lure of for- eigc territorrial conquests." Japan may politely respond that it prefers British example to'precept, and reach for more islands beyond Formosa. An Afatama paper wants to know why, when cotton has advanced 55 per cent, silver has increased in value but 10 per cent. The silver orators must have been mistaken in declaring that cotton could never advance until the bid ratio pulled its leg. California, which is 45 years old as a state, is officially valued at fl, 132,712, 674. This is t$40 for every man, woman and child in the state, or 43X) for every family. Such a development of wealth and social progress in half a century could tako place nowhere except in this republic It is said Oregon has spent f 100,000 for bicycles this year, 75 per cent of which has gone Fast. It will take a goodly portion of her prune crop to pay this bill. But she ought to be ready to pay it ten or fifteen times over with her egg crop. Statesman. If falling revenues have placed the country in euch serious financial straits since the passage of t'-o Wilson-Gorman bill, think how we shuuld have suffered if the original Wilson bill had become a law. Seattle (Wash., Tost-Intelligencer. The gold is going out to pay for the things let in duty free by the Wilson tar iff bill, which otherwise we would be manufacturing at home. Such a beauti ful and beneficial system beneficial to English manufacturers! Statesman. The chief of police of Minneapolis has instructed policemen to arrest women who wear tight bicycling trousers. Women riders are highly indignant, at the chief's action and it is likely that a test case will be heard in the courts. Special rates on grain, not including oats, from Roseburg to Stockton, Port Costa, Benecia and South Vallejo, are 15.00 per ton. To San Francisco and Oakland, f 3.30. The late rains haye caused vegetation to start, and we may now expect feed for stock this winter, as has invariablr been tho case when we get copious early rams. Some one has said that if G rover wants the third term nomination noth ing would please the people more than to see him get it. Eugene Register. Cinnabar nines. P. Hume, who went to the Willamette valley last week, returned yesterday. Ho stopped over night in Shoestring val ley where he learned that tho old cinna bar mines have been purchased by a new company, and that tho company is now burning a large kiln of brick for tho pur poso of building a new condenser. Ttio company will likely rebuild tho old ones, as they were not constructed to save tho quicksilver as they ought. In fact tho opinion is that it was not intended that it should do when it was built; henco the failure of the mine. There has been a lot of work done and a large quantity of wood has been cut and corded in that vicinity. Also large quantities of oro have been taken out. Tho oro is said to bo rather low grade with rich streaks through it but unlim ited in quantity. At Brownavillo ho was shown some partly decomposed rock of brownish- grey color, which came from tho Blue river mines that was cris-crossod with small viens of gold which held it to gether. Tho owner of the mino said ho had traced the ledge for over 1000 feet that prosected well, every foot of it. Chicago Tailor has just received a full lino of fall sam ples. Suits from $10.00 upwards.
