TJie next thing of vital interest is keeping our money at home, or the largest possible amount of it. Open oar porta to foreign manufactures and they trill crowd out domestic man ufactures by flooding our country with product of cheap labor, and a large vol ume of our money will go to pay for them, ami never return. Tint has Iven the cause of our gold shipments to Kn gland lately, causing distrust and hard times now upon us. In view of this fact all of the foreign countries are now rejoicing in the reduction of the United States' tariff, as it gives them a better market in this country than they had under the McKinley tariff. They are certainly gainers by the redaction. What is their gain mut Lc oer loss. That is morally certain. By fostering oar own manufacturing industries we create a larger concerning class, thus making a home market for the raw materials which enter into thwre fabrics and for iA rodcts. This brings the manufacturer and consumer doser together and saves cost of trans portation. But the free trader says: Foreigners will not buy of us unles we bay of them. There is no argument in that. Other countries will hay of us what they want whether our tariff le hih f' Irr """" "" 3 j-iic to seU mora u; purchase. If our manufactures can have the largest jossiWe volume of ltusiness, they will manufacture all our own people want ami hav5 a large surplus and will then buy, the only way to prosper, and when manufactures are prosperous they will pay better wages to their employes. The employes getting good W3gea mill consume more of all the commodities which make life pleasant and enjoyable. "But'saya our free trade friend, "we can compete with the world in manu factures." Yes, of courre we can, by patting the laboring class down to Earopcan wages and manner cf living. The wase earners of tho United States for the last thirty jtarf", have Heed like the lords of old. They 1 -ve been better housed, better clad, better fed and better educated and enjyed more luxuries of ltfe than the laboring classes of Europe, hecaose they got better wages under our protective system, with 'almost constant employment. . One more word on "tariff is a tax and the consumer pays it." This we admit only in part. If the importer docs not pay the tariff, in part, at least, why do they not import as largely under high as under a low tariff? It is a fact they do not. But if the consumer pays the tariff, what difference can it be to the importer whether the tariff be high or low? Such logic is like a ecive; it won't hold water. Then again it is a fact that in a large numLer of dutiable articles the domestic manufacturer sells his producU of that clas3 for less than tho duty on them. How will free trader explain that? Daring tho summer of 1S3 1 tho noted bacteriologists of Europe, Koch of Ger many, Pasteur of France, Evrart of Scot land and Carpenter of England, made ex periments on the vitality of tho germ which causes splenic fever in animate. The facts thus deduced prove that earth worms may brine up the germ3 from places where such animals have been buried after a lao of 20 years, and that the dried and pulverized blood of such diseased animals will produce the disease after 50 yearf. A private deposit of $75,000,000 in for eign countries is said to represent Abdul liamid's provision for a rainy day, and his idea of what is best calculated to con sole a sultan out of a job.

From what Mr. Stearns says we should jaJgo he is getting the turkey business down to a fine point, as to pack log, shipping, Ac. In the latter tort of the week he received a communication from one of the parties he deals with, stating that $9.00 worth of gold nnggets were taken from the gizzard of one of the turkeys This is indicative of two thins. Turkeys from this part of the country t!l ind a ready market, and that we are si the foot or boundary of some mineral belt.

At 1 o'ekek today, in the circuit court, Judge Follerton pronounced, for the second time, the death sentence of Sam uel u. Brown, as follows: "On the 5th day of December. 1MM you were put on trial in this court on an tndtctment charging you with murder in the tilling of Alfred Kincaid in August, 1S5M, in this county. Several davs werr consumed in the trial of the cause. You were defended by skillful and able coan sel. The jury returned a verdict to the effect that you of your deliberate and premeditated malice did kill and murder the eaid Alfred Kincaid, at the time and in the manner set out in the in dictment. On the 23d dav of December IKH, yoojvere sentenced by this court to be executed on the IStli day of February 1S&5. An appeal was taken lo the su preme court of the state from the judg mcnt of conviction. After a careful con eideration of all the questions involved in the bill of exceptions the supreme court has found that you had a fair and impartial trial and that there was no error in the record of this court In the trial of said cause, and the mandate of the Eapreme court affirming the verdict of the jury and the judgment of this court IM been tiled with the clerk of the court. After the lapse of a year you again stand before the court for sentence. It would serve no good purpose to recall or repeat at this time the evidence upon which yoa were convicted. Suffice to say that you are brought to the awful death, which awaits you at tho hands of the law, by your own unbridled passions. it is a sad and terrible fate for any man, and much more sad and terrible for a man who is yet in the yigor and bloom of youth. But the law must be vindi cated and tho lesson which is convoyed by tho punishment meted out to you may have a salutary effect open others. it is ordered and adjudced that vou be taken hence to the jil of this county and there kept confined until Friday, the 31st day of January, 1S0G, and on said day oeiweeti the hours of seven and eiifht o'clock in tho morning, be taken by the sheriff of Douglas county to some place within the jail yard of said county by the said sheriff selected, and there hanged by the neck until you are dead." The Dardanelles, of which we read much these days, are four castles or forts ' n opposite shores of tin? - I ww,- win ', jjms the sea of Marmora with the waters of ihe Aegean sea, but the name by association, is also given to channel on which the fort stands. For many years the Turkish government maintained that no foreign vessel of war should at any time be allowed to pass the Dardanelles fort. This re striction was recognized by Great Britain and France, in consequence of which in 1S32-53 the British fleets were not permitted to enter the straits. This claim on the part of Turkey was fully recognized by all the great pow ers of Europe in 1S41 and was reaffirmed in the treaty of Paris in 1S5G, two years later, however, in November, 1S58, the United State's frigate, Wabash, passed the Dardanelles, and anchored at Con stantinople, the commanding officers claiming that the United States, not being a party to the treaty of Paris, was not bound by its stipulations. Although no positive acknowledgment was made as to the correctness of this position, the vessel was received in a friendly manner by the Turkish government. The two castles at the entrance of the strait from the side of tho -Egean sea were built by Mohammed in in 1059. The Difference in Climate. City Marslial Cannon has just re ceived a letter- from C. A. Sprandel, formerly of Roseburg but now a resident of Minnesota. He says potatoes are 7 cents a bushel, oats 12U cents, and hay three and four dollars a ton. About this time the mercury is 10 degrees be low -zero, while here in Oregon the weather is mild and pleasant and grass green as in spring. Could those Min nesotaus bo transplanted today from that frigid region to our beautiful city they would think they had reached par adise. After fifty years' residence in Oregon, we can say wo have never been confined to the house with sickness, ex cept with a spoil of the la grippe. Neither liave we known a crop to fail nor a decrease in the production of the soil during tliat period of time. The soil continues as fertile as ever, and that without tho use of fertilizers. The gentle rain from heawu never fails us, and while some may grumble at au ex cess of water fall, yet it is one of the great means of keeping up the fertilit y of oar soil. We invite the people of the East to come oat and test the health fulness of our climate and be convinced. M5. Bon Boos. Go to Mrs. Henry Easton's for your confectionery.
