BRITISH FREE TRADE SCHEME, aro ro.uly to net, tliey are wser to act, i . . . . t inoy aro miming 10 nci, nun inuy uiu KoiiiR to act at tho t. Louis convention The currency bugaboo is tho offspring of the most adroitly planned and deftly executed political stratagem ot tho centu ry, and it ia having great success Its only purpose is to divert attention from tho ti rriltle havoc of the Wilson law and to shift tho punishment which the American people have in store for the dealrorers of American prosperity from the hack f the Democratic donkey to that of tii pjort'lit" free silver goat who has nev-r done, and never can do, any harm clicking away on his empty toma to cans. "Who is i'- that first said business was had because of the. currency question? The Fioe-Trader. Who was it that declares that business will no.er revive until v settle this tcrnble currency question? The Free-Trader. Whoiait that crie3 out that the only issue in the impending presidential campaign will he tho sound money question? The Free- Trader. Scratch a Free-Trader and what do yoa find? Either adyed in the wool democrat, a mugwump, or a paid agent of the English manufacturer. These are tho peoplo who are trying very hard to hide the tree condition of the country under the German Tariff by rAhing such a saioie about what would happen if the Free Silver men should elect both branches of congress and the president nest November, a thin- about as probable as the building of a trolley line between the earth and the moon in the near future. What ntnsense to blame the condition of the country upon thecurreucy question! Business is flit; hat biciuse of the Wilson law and the stappige of the vol ume of wages from the channels of trade, aod not Itecaaie people .ire waiting for a settlement of the silver question before eating another meal. To hear some people talk one would think that jobs were going hegiin; among idle workmen, who refase their service bscsiusc some time, in the veiy hizsy future, they may be paid in silver instead of gold ; and at tho polls in next November. Hon. J. M. Thurston. Stephen Wright of Oakland called upon us to lay on business. Mr. Wright is a liomestea Jer and camo to tho land o Hi co to initiatu final proof upon his homcMea 1 by advertising as provided by law, expecting he would bo allowed to advertise in tho I'lain-deai-ek, but tho register defiantly informed htm that he is the arbiter in such cases and that his ad. must g- in the Keview. Well that is all right, there will ie another change by and 1-y iad then toma reluctant denucrat i 1 have to pay for an ad. in a pap?r nut of hU choke, and great will be tho howl of the Iteview thereof. IL&N. E. McNEJIX, Receiver. xTEAST Gives the Choice of TWO . . Transcontinental . ROUTES VIA Our contemporary if tho lieyiew boasts of his iiumeni-e circulation. In "Lord & Thomas Pocket Directory" for IS04-5 which gives the newspaper, mag azine and- periodical circulation of the United States. s.uv, on pise 312 under head of Roseburg, Douglas county, that the circulation of tho lleview is only '1003." And yet that bombastic jour nal has the gall to state its ciiccUtion is 2300. Lord & Thomas doubtless got their information from the Keview in the quiet hours after Cholly had said his praytrf. Senator Vaaderbcrg said last night in his speech at the eoutt house. A min who votes as his paity dictates is not a gooaciiizen- e sumn u, ami asu ina ponderous questiou how many vote the populist ticket as the party dictates. Wo say that a large number o! all parties vote their party ticket without under standing really the reman why , except they htliere that party ruhl. Ia politics as in religion, no 0113 his faith is correct, lis onh bslievcs it is, ami so rets. Spckauc Minneapolis AND St. Paul VIA. Denver Omaha AND Kansas City The Mortgage Tax Law, In the Keview of Thursday it assays to and that railroads were refusing to carry . Wa aMJ, een:itor UtAWy' neglect freight and passengers and to improve lo ,uve the the tnMv a(,er -t each shinning hour because toma day, we might slide over on to a silver basis ; and thai tic trad;tnan was hugging his turnips and cabbage and waiving eff the eager throng of would-be purchasers and saying: "no, not another larnip or cab bage will I sell until I know what the currency of the country is going to be year after next ;" and that the mechanic was saying to his wife; "Jane. don't buy another loaf of bread or morsel of meat or any other fodder until this currency question is settled forever to tho satis faction of oar Free Traders and Johnie Bull."' What rot! Workmen are tumbling over each ether in search of joh, rail roads for freight and passengers, trades men for easterners, and men oat of work for a meal of any sort ; bst still the country is ia distress, business is want ing, and only the free-trader is happy us hs watches increasing imports and an oattlow of gakl. The faslt is not with the currency or with the free silver goat. Onr currency is as good as gold, and the free silver goat is co circumstance to the democratic donkey as a menace to ocr latere. The fanh i3 with the free-tnde in the Gorman tariff which has dammed csd dried up the stream cf business at its very source viz., the pocket of the workman whose employment has biea decreased or wholly taken away by tho substitution of foreign for American goJs in oar maikets because of demo cratic free-trade folly. The great busi ness of the couetry is between the pro ducers and consumers of articles of necessity and of immediate consumption, payments for which sre due upon de livery, a business that cannot be affected by any fir away phantom of the future like the possible saccess of unlimited free-silver. The free ailver sound-money dust is being thrown into the eyes of otherwise sensible jeople, so the throw crs may be able to plunder the country for four years longer with their free trade tariff. PARTY RAPING. ice iteview says siiamurooic was guilty of "most ur-gentlemanly conduct" ,n accepting the nomination fcr sheriff. liow about Agee who had held the office bur year. He did not want the office, he tokl a nnmber of his party, while many young and competent men cf the arty did want it. Long and Beckley wanted tne nomination bnt the bosses said nay, Ben urer accept it and tent a special messenger to Ben and forced his c.nsent, not for Ben's benefit but for their own. Ben is made a cat's paw to ull the chestnuts out of tho fire fcr the bosses to munch. It was a horrid thing far Sbauibroik to accept the nomination when tendered him, but it is all rigut la turn down Long and Beckley, young and capable men, to make way for Ben. Ben was f 01 cad to consent. passed the house. We accept the state ment that the bill died iu the hands of the senate committee. That is what Mr. Beckley is blamed for. He let that bill slumber in their hands. It was bis duty to call up that bill and bring it be fore the senate and demand a vote upon it. Had he done this and the senato should have voted it down then he would have bsen exonerated from all blame. But that, he did not do. Every one of Douglas county "s members in the bouse voted for that bill, in fact it was through thrir diligence in that matter that secured, its pissaga in 1I19 home. Teachers Examination.

T. Blcmb. Ia its general characteristics the Wil son bill reminds oae of tho lines of Wordsworth : The 6wan on still St. .Mary's Lake, Float double swan and shadow. The bill h ccctional in the extreme in i's general make-up, giving Protection to the products and industries of ooe section and denying that Protection to another. In a word, the Wilson hill is a legisla tive rnonetiosity, with the head of a man, the arms of adragon, the tail of a liah and the claws of a bear. It is an un American, un-Dmocratic, uii-Itepubli-can. It is- a dangerous menace to the prosperity and general welfare of the people of the United "tutes. Hon John II Mitchell.
