He would discuss no par ticular section of the McKinley bill, but called the attention of the people to the fact that to-day they owe their prosperity in a larger degree to the system of protection thnn to any oth er law ever passed by Congress. The Democratic papers lire talking a great deal alxiut the advance in prices and the oppression of the poor man. Un der the last free tariff, which ended in 1781, the people paid more for every thing that eutered into their living and household expenses than to-day, yet the whole country is resounding with the appeals of the Democratic party to vote against the Republicans for making high prices. “During twenty-nine years of a pro tective policy the tendency of prices for luxuries ami necessities hud been steadily downward. If protection does so much for the individual you have a far grander subject to contem plate when you look at the aggregate progress of the country under that syete.n. There is no country on tlie globe whose progress can compare with ours. We have more railways than all the continents ami islands in the world. Nearly live-sixths of these roads have been built since the Re publicans have lieen in power. I use this simply as an illustration, because it is the largest single interest we have. “During twenty-nine years of pro tection we have considerably more than doubled the population of the country. We have acquired wealth, despite the strain on the people of paying the expenses of a blixxly civil war a sum almost incalculable. When a man sajs to you, ‘You are in jured and pinched in your daily liv ing in consequence of this tariff.' ask him if you did not pay more for things tinder free trade than you do now. I think this a good question to put to every Democrat. “Congress has taken another step and vindicated the reputation of the Republican party, which is always ready to take a step forward. I call yon to witness that all the great movements of advancement that have been made, all the great steps taken in this country have Ixran taken by Republicans while the Democrats shouted ‘You can't do it!' |Loud cheers. I Mr. Blaine then went on to dsscuas reciprocity. “For a time,” he said, “the Republican party was divided on it. That showed that they were rea soning men. In due time they be came solid for it. When the Repub licans were divided on the question the Democrats were unanimous for it, but just as sixiu as tlie Republicans became unanimous yon couldn't get a Democrat to vote for it at all. If the Demirarata had a good idea the Re publicans would stand by them. But Democrats won't standby us unless the Republican party is divided. 1 do not call that wise financiering or patriotic conduct. We should not di vide when the prosperity of the coun try is involved. An American is a great deal bigger man than either a Democrat or Republican. Any Dem ocrat or any Republican makes him self smaller if he will stand in the way of American progress because it may harm his party. No great results can come from that. The republics of this continent should Ira brought closer together, and when we can help them ami they help us it is our busi ness to do so. Recipnxrity is bring ing these nations cLser together, and I believe in the next two years we can open to the farmers of the United States a market of 35,(KM),0(M> of peo ple in addition to what we now have. This is a greater step of progress than the Demix'ratic party has taken in the last fifty years. These are simple facts ami not theories.” In conclusion Mr. Blaine said: “We want the Republicans of Indiana united, to stand together as they did on the field of battle during the time of the war. Indiana is one of the fighting States. Yon are trained in political fighting. You have never had an easy-going electiou since I can remember, and this time, fellow Re publicans, stand Ux* to toe aud earn it to the bitter end. You want to watch this issue, for if you stand up other States will lx> stronger. Indi ana has given strength to this coun try in its President, ami she should not go back in a single degree on the President who sits iu the executive chair.” Advice to Mother*.

Professor Koch refuses to say more on the subject of Ins discovery of a cure for «jusiunp turn than has been published in the National Zeitung. No further par ticulars are obtainable in addition to those already cabled except that me tallic salts are used in the preparation of the lymph. This lymph, having killed the bacillus, acts as a medium to re-establish the patient's health by its inherent healing powers and also fortifies him against further invasions of bacilli. Lymph is obtained by a long and extremely difficult process at a great cost, and the cure will there fore be available only for the wealthy if the remedy is not bought by the Governments of the different coun tries for the general benefit of hu manity. It is expected that long standing cases of consumption cannot be cured by the invention, as in such cases oth er parasites besides tubercolosis bacil lus eat their way into the lung, while Professor Koch's lymph only kills the bacillus proper, but it kills it imme diately and stops the process of con sumption. HF.PVBIJt'AN PLEDGES RFJ»EHMF.!> TUE WORLD’S FAIR. The diligent student of political economy who has had the courage and patience to explore the writings of Calhoun and the contemporary South ern free traders cannot fail to have been struck by their extraordinary pessimism when considering the pos sibilities of material development in the United States. There was a com plete consensus of opinion among them that this country would be un able to compete with England iu any line of manufacture, and that our Iraet policy would therefore lie to depend ii[>ou Great Britain for cotton cloths, wixilens, iron ware and other products of manufacture. Of course the fancied profits which would result from such a system to the slave holder played an important part in forming the opinion, but there can lie no question that Calhoun and others honestly lielieved that England enjoyed natural advantages which would always make her the leading manufacturing nation of the world, and that none others could hope to rival her. Had any sanguine man—and there were son; > in those days predicted that ; a ss than sixty years after the attempt at nullifieanon the U.-rited States would produce more iron than England be would have been looked upon as a visionary, and had he in timated the possibility of our manu factures of all kinds exceeding in vol ume those of the mother country he would have been set down as a man devoid of reason. And yet the reputed visionary would have argued from sounder premises than the aute-liellum free traders. He would have seen what they and their successors have been unable to per ceive, that the assumed natural ad vantages of England are entirely arti ficial, and that we could readily put ourselves on an equal footing by imi tating English methods. It was because there were men who perceived this clearly that there was always more or less agitation for pro tection, but the slave oligarchy held the reins of power too securely to per mit any serious exirariments. Not until the war had broken the grasp of the slave-owners did protection get a fair show. When it did the effects soon began to lie felt. Alter the sys tem was fairly launched it only took twenty-five years to achieve results winch could not have Ix en attained under twenty-five centuries of a fiscal policy such as Calhoun and Mills ad vocated.—(Chronicle. In its national platform of 1888 the republican party promised that it would enact laws to secure certain ob jects, if the people would return it to power in the ensuing election. The jra-iple took the republican party at its word and placed its candidates in the White House and a republican major ity in the house of representatives. Eighteen months have passed and the time has recurred for another con gressional election. The questions be fore the people, then, are these: Has the republican party kept its promise? In what respect«, if any, has it failed? Here are the facts: 1. The republican party promised a federal election law. That law lias passed the house ami is pending in tlie senate, through which it will pans in December. 2. The republican party promised to revise the tariff in conformity with the policy of protection. It has done so through the McKinley bill, which the New York Trit min pronounces “the wisest, bravest and beat tariff measure that has ever been framed.' 3. The republican party promised to restore silver to its money uses. It has done so in a law which has had the effect of raising the value of silver 26 cents, ami of wheat 221.! cents. 4. The republican party promised to pass a just pensiou law. It has dom- so in a measure which increases the pension appropriations to $2 out of every $5 collected by the govern ment. 5. Th« republican party promised to do all it could toward the revival of the American merchant marine. It has done so in the two shipping bills which have passed the senate aud are now pending in the house, through which t hey will soon be carried. 6. The republican party promised to exclude cheap labor and alien con tract labor from our shores. It has done so, aud ha« also passed a dozen other measures asked for by the labor organizations of the laud. 7. The republican party promised to admit such territories as are fitted for statehood. It has done so by push ing North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana and Washington through a democratic house, and by admitting Idaho and Wyoming. 8. The republican party promised to rebuild the navy and construct har bor defenses. It has done so by au thorizing six new vessels of war and numerous fortifications. The republican party promised cheap letter postage. A bill reducing letter postage to oue cent per ounce has Iraen favorably reported to the lions«, and is now on its passage. Tins is the record, or rather a small but conspicuous part of it, which the republican majority in congress have made. They have performed their commission faithfully. It is a foolish householder who discharges a faithful servant to make room for one who has always been false aud incapable.—|Ex. Leiter of Hen Henry Klipis-I to President Osborne of the Oregon State Ii<>.uxl of Trade. Medford, Or., October 27.—In reply to your courteous communication of the 25th iust., relating to tlie propose«! Oregon exhibit at the Columbian Ex position, I will say, that aside from my wish as one of the state commis sioners t<rthe commission, I am. as u life-time citizen of thi6 state, grati fied at the unanimously expressed w ish of onr citizens as shown in the state press, that the mighty resources of our state should lie well and fitting ly represented at this the grea'rat ex position of the century. It would have been presumptuous in myself, as commissioner to have attempted to dictate bow the Oregon exhibit should be prepared, or what it should coutaiu, or how funds .-I»<»”Id lie raised to pro cure and put iu place our exiubit. My public duties wi re confined, as they should have been, to attention to the meetings and business of the commission at Chicago. Still I feel, as a citizen, and incidentally with my work as commissioner, that action should lie formulated and taken with out delay to the end that our state may take the place with Ler aider states iu this comingexfiosition, which nature ami the energy ami industry of her citizens has by right accorded her. Mil in 1889 we imported 742,13t>,C4O pounds of tin plate at a cost of $21,- 726,707. Had we made this tin at home we would have given employ ment to many thousand American workingmen, for the working of tin plate in this country means the ad ditional production of l.oiHi.ixHi tons of iron ore, 300,0110 tons of limestone, 2,000,900 tons of coke, 400,000 tons of pig iron, 5,509,000 pounds of lead, 13,- 000,<MK) pounds of tallow ami oil, 40,- 000,000 pounds of sulphuric acid and 12,000,000 feet of lumber. The pro duction of these things requires t lie ex penditure of vast amounts for wages, and these wages in turn will contrib ute to tli<> pre apcrity of eliiq-keepi-re. land owners, professional men, etc. During the past twenty-five years we have paid England the tremendous 6iim of $.320,0.37,:«!2 for tin plate. When we consider the extraordinary propensity of capital to beget capital, need we wonder with tins example be fore us that England is able to buy from the rest of the world every year over a billion dollars more of mer chandise than she gives tn return? The men who passed the McKinley bill are witnessing a prompt realiza tion of their expectations. They avowed that theirchief object in pass ing the measure was to strengthen the duslries already in existence in this country aud to create new ones. As eoon ns there ,was a reasonable degree of certainty that the bill would be come a law the woolen industry im mediately brightened and factories liegan running day and night. All other trades have ehared the forward impulse. So noticeable was this that Unnlsfret t's a week ago declared that business has not been so brisk in every line for many years past as at present. In addition to brightening up exist ing industries many important new ones have been started. Among these are several tin plate mills, linen fac tories and worsted mills. Iu a few- ilays we may also expect to see the site selectwl tor what will lie the larg est plush factory in the world. So, on the whole, the workingmen ami farm ers may well lie satisfied, even if the dudes who are compelled to pay a little bit more for champagne and cigars, are not. ---- In the town of----- MONTAGUE, Siskiyou co., Cal., ILs'oHS NEW For Sale on Easy Terms.

Washington. Oct. 29 There can lie no doubt that the negotiations I rat ween the British Minister and the United States relative to Benring sen are soon to be renewed. The expectation is that the first meeting between Mr. Blaine and Sir Julian l’auncefole will be held to-morrow. Those who are intimate at the State Department say that Secre tary Blaiue is not very confident as to the outcome of these negotiations. The British Minister, through the medium of the public press, has made very dear the basis upon which he in tends to proceed. He has in advance, it may almost be said, sul milted to the State Department through the newspapers his ultimatum. This is a very unusual proceeding in diplomacy at this capital, and is contrary to the methods of the British government. What reason induced Sir Julian I’auncefote to resume his negotiations through the medium of the public press cannot lie ascertained. The proposition to settle the Behring sea controversy by arbitration has come from Great Britain. Before an agreement shall lie made Imtween the two governments. Secre tary Blaine, it is understood, will insist upon knowing the basis upon which the arbitration is to proceed. And he will particularly desire to know whether the British government in tends to bring into question the mutter of the dosed sea as abasia upon which the negotiations are to proceed. If that shall be insisted upon by Great Britain the negotiations may fail. It is said that the Secretary of State will also insist ujkiii some form of rec ognition of the moral claim of the United States to lie protected in its valuable fur seal properties against the prevailing recklessness and de structive pursuit of the business of seal hunting, whether the waters wherein this inconsiderate slaughter is carried on are part of the iqran or closed sea. Secretary Blaiue has never insisted in his negotiations with the British Minister that the Behring sea is a dosed sea; he has simply maintained that those rights in Hint sea which were for half a century exercised by Russia and recognized by Great Brit ain shall also I"» reooguizisl by Great Britain w hen exercised by the United States as the legal successors to the rights of Russia in that sea.

A POOIC EXHIBIT WORSE THAN Ni'THlNO« Every true citizen of this state will quite well agree that a poor exhibit would be worse than none. This in ternational exposition, from the hour its doors are opened until the final day, will lie crowded with borne-seek ers and home-makers, all seeking to learn from the exhibits of all quarters of the world, aud particularly this Western 61upe, the place where they may go and build a home. A poor exhibit from Oregon would deter any one, home-maker or capitalist, from coming here; an imiiffereut exhibit would lie passed by with contempt after gazing upon the manifold won ders which the exposition will present, while a fair exhibit, which would Is* in our case a great representation of a greater land, would bring capitalists and wage-earners here by the thou sands. No citizen «ill dispute that our state needs all the muscle of bread winners n>’d all the gold of invesUnent- seekers that can lx? brought within our borders. We need tin tn to help us keep om place in the swift race of civilization to the shore of the J’acific. Without them Oregon will be left fHr liehind. Our people should be made to understand what a vast undertak ing this exposition is to be. l-otir hundred years after Uolumisis, there is to lx? pnxluced in the center of this continent a vast representation of the lands and the seas, the mountains ami valleys ami forests, the natural and artificial resources and industries of every people of the earth. In the midst of such a vast assemblage Ore gon must not lie lost, and such should be the gift she will offer, with open hands, to the whole earth that our state will soon throng with liome- seekers from the whole earth anxious to learn by personal observation if the tale told by onr Chicago exhibit lx* the truth aud the whole truth. APl’HOI'HIATF. PLENTY OF MONEY. Concede then the paramount im portance of a gram] exhibit from Ore gon aud its cost, especially in an un dertaking of the state, sinks into in significance. It Las been suggested that the sum of 325U.UU) be given by the state for this purpose. I think that thin finu will be sulfleietrt to pre pare ami put in place a great exhibit, and yet for my part had 1 the power I Would without hesitation make the summit h ast to nMKill. A quarter of a million is a 1 idling sum in this day of vast fortunes to give to nn enter prise which will bring or may bring untold millions to our state. If this exhibit brings 250 settlers here, each with $19iitl, our state in material wealth would be a large gain er from the ex|x*nditure, for the wealth they would bring would not lie a tithe to the wealth which they would make for the state during a residence of ten year» here. 1 au> quite sure, from niv knowledge of onr people, that no state legislator would have the folly or hardihood to rise in his seat ami even protest against an appropriation for thi« great state pur pose—an appropriation whose expen diture would be alisolutcdy lx*youd suspicion- and in the sight of whose great purpose |x>litical claptrap would lie instautly silenced. roRTLAND SHOFLU RE THE CKNTEB. A practical question has been sug gested by the (htgonian, which should, iu my judgment, receive im mediate attention. When the ques tion of this appropriation shall have lx«en presented to the legislature, the plan will lack details. Who will ex pend the money, and under what safe guards and conditions? In order to avoid criticism the whole plan should lx* well formulated, and then if any objection was made it would Ira in stantly silenced as that of a small mind. I have heretofore suggested, in nu merous letters to the committee ap pointed from your bixly upon the world’s fair, that a cor|x>ration Ira or ganized for this purpose. That its board of directors La- leading public men from all parts of the slate; but as is fitting, that n niajority of the board reside in Multnomah county. This la*’er thought I believe to 1'ra sound, IracHUse, first, Multnomah o»uu- ty leads the state; aud next, without such majority residing in Portland meetings of the Uiard would lx- ham pered for want of a legal majority. Let such elements enter into the man agement of 1 lie cor[H>rate .aff.i’rs, t hat it will lie plainly «»-. »> that it is for the benefit of the whole state, ami that its affairs will Ixi <■ .nducted with honesty and eners'y.

There are so many ami diversified interests of this state which should lra represented in the exposition, that it should Ira the work of specialists. The fishery exhibit should Ira pre pared by some «,ue now directly con- nected with that business and famil iar with ¡'.a details and such a jx-rxon should lie a member of the board of directors. Ami so with the forest and ' lumber interests, ami the horticultur al ami agricultural interests, and the mlerests of mine ami factory. All tins is a broad undertaking, ami no time should I mi kist iu commencing the work. I quite well agree with you that no state can excel ami few compare with the showing that Oregon may make if its citizens will organize for united action ami will fairly represent the wealth, dormant ami vigorous, which is within our boundary lines.
