THE CUBANS.
At Tampa, F a., (here are at out 300
oigar factories, eioplouDg not lees than
70 JO persona. The employes are nearly
all Cabans. Kvery Saturday Dight. after
they Ret their pay, they go straight to
the collector of the junta and without
murmur or a regret leave with l.im their
assessment for the revolutionary fund,
which is one-eijUh of the week's wages
one day's pay. When there is a press
ing call for money, the proprietor of the
factory runs it Monday, and all the oper
atives men, women and children-gtve
their entire earnings for the day. It Is
a pathetic exhibition of patriotism, and
as most of the people are devout Catho
lics, they breathe a prayer for Cu'a
Libre as the money is dropped. It is
small wonder that a people actuated by
such a spirit of self sacrifice Lave been
abl to bold out so long against the su
perior numbers and resources of Spain.
They are boind to succeed ia the end.
GLOOMY OUTLOOK.
Senator Hill, in his magazine article
on "The Future cf the Democratic Or
ganiration," draws a gloomy pit-tore of
that party's prospects. It is trae to life,
however. In the absence ol a union be
taeen the two factions of the party there
is not the sligbest chance for it to win,
for the coalition between the silver dem
ocrats and the populists can hardiv be
renewed. A powerful element of the
populists is against any further alliance
with the democrats, and many of the
latter tnink they could have done better
in the recent campaign without fusion.
The present temper of the gold and sil
ver democrats shows that the breach in
their party is as broad as it was in the
canvass. If the republican party avoids
blunders, and the likelihood is that it
will, the outlook for democratic success
at any early day will remain dark.
WHY?
Why should a few individuals sign a
bond of an official, elected by the people,
to guarantee the people themselves from
loss in case the said official proves a de
faulter. East Oregonian.
The inquiry of the Tendleten paper is
pertinent. If the people have not suf
ficient confidence in the integrity of a
fellow citizen who may be a candidate
for office then they ought not to elect
him; and when elected he should not be
required to compel a few of his personal
friends to become responsible to those
who elected him for the faithful dis
charge of his duties. Let the whole
people Lear the responsibility, and if he
is false to his trust let the penalty b
severe. "Let the puuieh'j-ett fit the
crime."
The gist of the attorney-general's
opinion given to State Superintendent
Irwin, is that an elector at atcbool meet
ing must bb 21 years old and a citizen of
the United States; must have retided in
the state six in intbt preceding the elec
tion and iu thu district 30 days immedi
ately preceding the election ; must hove
property upon which he or eho pays
tax, and in case they have no property,
then in districts of less than lUOOinhabl
tanta an elector mutt be the parent of
children of school age,
The Greeks of Chicago are reported
anxious to take up arms for King
George, invade Crete and expel the
Turk. The result of a meeting between
Greek and Greek baa lon been ascer
tained; but when Greek meets Turk,
the kind of "tug" that follows may soon
be demonstrated. Now if the Greeks of
Chicago would only agree to meet the
Turks of Chicago iu mortal combat on the
fair grounds, they might settle the ques'
tion to the satisfaction of the Great
Towers.
It baa not leaked out whether or not
Ibe populist gathering at Grange Hall
last Friday concluded to hold up the
bauds of the populist obHtructionists at
Salem. It teem to have been the
order eo to do In other gatherings of

Douglaj count brethren did sot to do
(if the didn't) remain! to be accounted
for.
TUB FEE SYSTEM.
Judge Fullerlon went. to the north end
of bis bailiwick last week to bear argu
ment in the case of Landis, sheriff, vs.
Lincoln county. It tremt that when the
county was crra'ed It provided that the
otHrers should receive the same feet as
ihofe paid the officers of Benton county,
that is, shariff and clerk. That was
Wfore the pHssage of the general sal
ary law. When the salary law was pasted,
Lincolu county jaas not provided for
and the officer want the saius salary at
the Henton county officers. Ia tblt con
nection the Leader says:
"Lincoln county, in comtnou with
more than. half the coiimiet of the s'ate,
cannot afford to pay salaries commensu
rate with the labor and responsibility of
the clerk and thurlff. The hu t ot the
ma ter is that no small count its can af
ford to pay salaries at all. There Is too
much free work dene for the people by
the county under the preeent law . A
single case of foreclosure in the July and
January terms of tourt just past coat the
county no lest than 100 in the actual
expenses of the suit, service, etc., and
yet the county was paid the munificent
sum of 16 The county can't stand it.
The only relief it a return to the fire sys
tem, and a juJIciom and wise regulating
of the feet received."
The curtailment cf the sugar supply by
the war in Cuba it responsible for the
agitation of the question of the cultiva
tion of tugar beets, in order that in the
event of future emergencies we tnav be
independent of the foieign article for the
upply of the tablet of tSc land with su
gar. It should be the policy of every
country to produce so far as OMible
within its own borders the necessaries as
well as the luxuries of life. The beet
industry, or perhaps more strictly t peak
ing.the production of eogtir from beets, it
bound to become one tf the great indus
tries of the Tacific coast. In this con
nect ion let it not bo forgotten that the
soil and climate of Poog'as county is un
surpassed for the production of the sugar
beet. Once capital ran be interested
and the industry set upon its feet, it will
be a source of prptual profit.
Praise for Lyman J. Gage is all right.
ITa deserves it. But it is not right, say
the Globe, to Insinuate, as some papers
and persons do, tbut his appointment
"saves the gold etandarJ." The gold
standard was saved by the vote which
elected William McKinley and defeated
William J. Bryan. From the moment
on the tight of November 3 when the
country learned that McKinley had car
ried a majority of the sectorial votes it
saw that repudiation was beaten for four
ears at least. The gold standard would
be saf? under the incoming administra
tion no matter who should hold the
treasury portfolio.
Senator Boiler, of South Carolina, pop
ulist, aud Seuator 11 ill, of New York,
democrat, seems to have reached the
same conclusion. Butler, after trie elec
tion last fall, declared that if the popu
list psrty expected to win in the future
it mast' cut loose from the democratic
name; and now Senator Hill insists that
for the democratic party there must be a
complete separation from populism.
Both these Etatesmen had to be licked
into that position.
The Albany Herald published a peti
tion signed by a whole lot of people aud
several besides, directed to State Sena
tor Dawson, of Linn. The petitioners
set forth that tbey had supported Daw
son aod now they want Dawson to sop
port Mitchell. The iMnoocrat cornea
back and says there re 20 signtauree
obtained at Scio, wLereat Dawson re
ceived bnt 10 votes in that precinct.
There seems to be a mistake out some
where.
A correspondent writing on the toads
of Douglas county takes an optimistic
view of Iioceburg aod.itt future. Yet all
that it within the poeibiiities. The coal,
the iron, the gold, the agriculture, and
the water powers of this vicinity consti
tute the raw materials from, or the foun
dations upon which, a city may be built.
The ono thing needful is people and they
are getting more numerous every day.
The prevailing sentiment among the
republicans here seems in favor of the
Benson house maintaining its position
and refusing to yield an inch, even if
such a course shall involve a permanent
deadlock. If this ia not to be a govern
ment of majorities we might as well be
gin now to find it oat. Let the minority
understand that it cannot gain its point
by obbtructive tactics.
And now Switzerland is about to aban
don the initiative and referendum. If
that, too, like the free coinage of silver,

persuado the American people to adopt

NOTES f ROM SALEM.
Tbe Davis bouse hat been holding its
teetloni every day, Sundays included,
but the Sunday session bat usually been
held In the evening. Last Sunday there
was a I ttle surprise sprung: When the
Davi house met st 7 o'clock there were
present seven members, including the
speaker. Se en Itensonitea weie also in
their seats and were, accerJing to -custom,
enrolled as present. Brown ol the
Benson house, move J to adjourn till 11 :3t
Monday evening, but bit motion was lost
ou a tie vote. The ttontou meu then ob
jected to Speaker Davis voting except ou
rollcall. Davis acquiesced and the mo
tion was then made and carried to ad
journ till 11 45 Monday night, the Ln
ton men voting aye and the Pavla men
no. The whole matter was intended as
a joke, and created considerable annuo
msnt tor the Beuton men, at the ex
pense of the unsuspecting lvi mem
ber. Kut the motion had prevailed and
there was no help (or it, accordingly the
Monday session of the Davis houre did
not take place till 15 rninuto before
midnight. The Davibites, however, look
advantage of the conditions aud wheu it
adjourned it was to 13:03 Tuesday morn
ing. At that time the house was called
to order and another adjournment taken
to Wednesday at V:80 a. m. So that
practically they covered two seesiout and
two days within the space of SO minutes.
Now tbe whole business, senato and
both houses, are out of favor with the
ministerial association of Salem. At a
meeting the other day that body adopted
the following resolution :
"Heeolved, that we, the meiuiers of
the ministerial association of Salem, Or
egon, refuse to prny iu either the senate
or house chambers until the legislature
Is unitedlv at work.''
Kvery once io a while the ministerial
union makes the legislature tbe subject
of discussion. Wheti everything moves
on smoothly the ministers apportion
themselves brlwren the houses and pray
In turn. A few years ago one of the city
pastors contended that he ought to Imve
two prays to the other folks one because
bit congregation was twice as large.
But it didn't work, and neither house
cared who invoked divine blessing for
them, or whether it was invoked at all or
not. It was cn'y by courtesy any way,
and if tho ministers did not happen to
be on hand prcmptly the busintss went
on without waiting.
The story is told that tome years ago
Joab Powell, the eccentric pioneer
preacher, was engaged as chap'ain for
the session at f I pei day. As the con
stitution prohibits tbe payment of the
public money for praters the members
had determined to subscribe theamcuot.
Juab came and held lorth for a few days,
then the solons concluded they did not
need any more prayer, bat the chaplain
would not be choked off unless ho was
paid tbe full amount lor which be had
made hit pilgrimage to tbe capital and
they hd to dig up.
Senator Dufur of Wasco, mada a
speech, it will be remembered, in the
joint convention last Friday, io which he
severely scored the members who wer
holding on. The senator from Wasco is
a dem'icrat and it is generally under
stood ill do anything to further the in
terests of Senator Mitchell without di
rectly voting for him, and might do that
if it was absolutely necessary. But a
Salem paper commented on that speech
in a manner that did not please the sen
ator and the objectionable paragraph
was this:
"I throw my bill for a portage railroad
to relieve the farmers of Eastern Oregon
to the dogs. What Oregon needs is a
funding bill senator to help the Pacific
railroads rob the farmers.'' Senator
Dufur.
This brought the senator to bis feet
Tuesday morning on a question of privi
lege and he then characterized the state
ment as a "malicious falsehood and one
that was manufactured out of whole
cloth." Of coorse the senator did not
uss the words attributed to him, and
every one knows be didn't. It was only
an "Hoferic" way of stating what the
effect of bit wordt were. A staid aud
dignified senator, and a lawyer, too,
onght to have known that and should
not have clothed it with respectability
by referring to it in the senate.
The sick list continues to grow rather
than abate. Vaughan and Hudson
had a monopoly for a while but
now McKinley Mitchell, Veness and
Senator Dawson are added to the list.
It was found necessary to take Hudson
to the hospital and he will probably re
main there for some days. In fact, if
the session terminate! on Friday he will
take no further part in it. Mitchell's ab
sence on Monday was attributed to de
fection, but he responded to roll call In
joint convention Tuesday and asked to be
excused for Wednesday.
There it something about Salem that
always causes a large percentage of sick
nets among members and others iu at
tendance, at tbe legislative sessions. It
ii generally attributed to the water.
But tbe increased demand for liquid re
freshment bat not been noticed by the
water company.
Neither house is pretending to do any
thing. Tbe sessions of the renate are
about at perfunctory as those of the
house, or houses. No effort bat been
made to pass a bill though several have
reached tbe order of third reading and
are '"dy for consideration. But the
qui i ion has been mooted as to whether
or not a bill passed by tbe senate w hen
the "Legislature" was not in session,
would have any standing in court if
tested. Jt takes both house and senate
to make the legislature, and at the sen
ate does not recognize the Houso as or
ganised this may account for fact that
tbe senate baa not vet pawed a bill.
At during the past five weeks and
more, something is always promised for
tomorrow ; but tomorrow comes, and just
prior to the assembling of the joint con
vention there it a great ttir and harry and
scurry, and much courageous whistling
to keep op appearances. But the still it
as the war, eo to speak.
