TONGUE O.N PUERTO RICO.
Explains His Position in Regard to
Tariff.
Wa desire to ag ain remind tbe voters o
each precinct of their dutv to nominate a
candidate for road supervisor in each
road district in their precinct. At the
coming June election the voters of e.ch
precinct voting together wi 1 elect one
supervisor for each road district in their
precinct. The nominations may be
made by tbe wbo'e precinct or they may
ba made by the voters of tbe different
districts, bat as tLey will be elected by
tbt whole precinct.it would perhaps as be
wall for the wuole precinct to joio in the
nomination of all. if there is more than
one district in the precinct. These nom
inations should be certiSei to the ounty
convention in order tbat they miy be
ratified and placed on the county ticket.
It Is a hopeful and encouraging aign
for republicans, tbat oo single person is
poshing bis claimB(or nomination on the
republican ticket. There is an absolute
absence of strife and a desire to have all
farmer factions and all localities in the
county equally represented on the ticket
and to throw the rerp jnsibility of mak
ing np tbe ticket entirely on the delegates
to the convention when tbe convention
meets. Never before, perhaps, ia the
history of tbe county, have tbe republi
cans been so harmonious and so deter
mined to nominate strong men men
who will poll tbe full party vote and lo
heartily and earnestly support the ticket
when it is nominated A continuation
el tbis determination will place Douglas
county solidly in t lie republican column
where she belonge.
Representative Tongue says:
"The Washington dispatch published
in the Oregonian of the loth des not
properly represent my 'altilude on the
Puerti Ricin b'Jl. I voted in tbe caucus
and in the House to reduce tbe tar: J
from 25 to 15 per rent, and to limit the
operation of the bill to two years. I was
one of the uioit strenuous advocates cf
the latter amendment. But it is assert
ed by the oppeneuts of tbe bill that this
small tiriff upon the neceeepry food
products io Puerti Rico will be oppress
ive to the poor people of tbat island. I
have raid that if this is true, it might lie
well for tbe Senate to consider a proposi
tion to admit such articles duty free, and
increise the tariff to 25 per cent on sagar
and tobacco, as the entire crop of these
article, it is said, has bee a bought by
the trusts and speculators. Tbis provis
ion wonld relieve ths people and place
the tarll upon tbo?e most able to be..r
it, the trusts and speculators.
"Tbe only leuon that justifies tbe
Houee bil or that reenred the votes
necessary topasii', including my own,
is ths necessity o! railing revenue to
maintain government in Paerto Rico,
temporarily, nntil tbe people can recover
from tbe r present dis!rees:d condition.
With normal coaditions re tared, and
other revenue meuures enactel, com
mercial intercourse between Paerto Rico
and the United States should and will be
as free rs between Oregon and California."

chinists say that tucai conditions In the
Triou cititS where the machinists are
dissatisfied will govern tbe calling of a
general strike.
Tbe president, Mr. O'Connell, and hie
five assistints have left for tbe principal
centers of industry to confer with their
men before issaing orders to go out.
Cleveland, Philadelphia and Paterson,
N. J., where the men are said to be.be
coming restless under the delay in the
strike order, will be visited as soon as
possible.
As estimated by IVesidect O'Connell,
1S5.000 machinists will ba affected by a
national s tile. Iu the New England
states there are 5J.00J men working at
tbe trade, and it is expected th'u section
of the country will be the battle ground.
Tbe lead-rs' say tbe strike will extend
only to tbe factories and shops which
manufacture mining, pumping, electric
and printing mf'hinery. Railroad shops
wil! not be included at present, nor will
large corporations, such as the steel com
panies and ihe haryejter ai.d reaper
works, the plow factories, the bicycle
factories and posib!y shipbuilding. In
many of the cities where strikes sre
threatened there are tirins which have
contracts with the unions, and these
will be lived up to whether or not strikes
areral'ed.
For strike benefits and othes expenpea
of a great strike, the International Asso
ciation o'. Machinists has a fund of $15,
003 which has alw.iys been kept in re
serve in the nationa' tieiiry for emer
gency use, and a reierva fund of $109,003
in the various local treasuries. For
b-rnefits the c institution provides that
single unn ate to be paid $1 a week, and
