SATURDAY, - - NOVEMBER 16, 1895 A NEAT SUMMING VP. For a good statement of the contrast between the present democratic admin istration and the preceding one under Harrison, we are indebted to the New York Advertiser. The democrats have been in power long enough for a fair comparison to be made and after noting the results to the industrial life of the country which the present regimen has brought, it will be hard tor an intelli gent man to vote for the continnence in power of the free trade, bond-gelling party. Under the head of "Six Frozen Facts" the Advertiser priuts the following-:'' During the four years that Benjamin Harrison occupied the presidency, fed eral revenues exceeded expenditures nearly $210,000,000. During the last two years, under Grover Cleveland, federal receipts have fallen $112,628,309.87 be hind expenditures. When Benjamin Harrison stepped down from the, chiet magistracy of the nation in "1893;,- the interest bearing debt of the federal government waa substan tially $535,000,000. On June 1st, last, a little over two years of Cleveland finan ceering, and fre trade tariff tinkering, the interest bearing debt has swollen to $716,202,000. During the fiscal year which closed on June 30, 1893, most of which year a re publican president tenanted the White House, this country built . 4,879 miles of railroad. In the following year, under the withering blight of Clevelandiem, it built lees than half that number, or to be exact, 2,247 miles. In 1892, the first year that the benefi cent effects of the McKinley tariff law bt?gan to manifest tbemselvee, the people of the United States sold goods amount ing to $1,015,732,011 to people abroad. During the last fiscal year, ten months of which the iniquitous Wileon-Gormau tariff law was in operation, the exports of this country had ehrunk to $793, 553,018. According to the census of 1890 the total amount of wages paid in the United States that year, a year when the rerub lican party controlled the executive and law making departments of the nation', reached the magnificent sum of $2,282. 833,265. In 1894 under Grover Cleve land, and a democratic congress, only the beggardly sum of about $1,200,000,000 was paid in wages. In 1890 the value of the manufactured products of this country was $9,280,107,- 625. Four years later, thanks to the malign influence of a democratic preei dent, and a democratic assault upon the factories, shops and mines and farms of this republic, the value of these products had dwindled to a little over $5,000, 000,000. These are btatementa of facts, and can not be denied or explained away. They embody a truthful presentation of the case. The six facte taken together, show at a glance why a change is needed, why the people have been voting for republi canism and against democracy, and why they should continue to so vote. It 'demonstrates the supreme importance of next year's national campaign and points to the necessity of making ade quate preparations for the coming battle. TWO NEIGHBORING CITIES. La Grande. Chronicle: . Experience proves that luck is a mighty remote ele men t of succees. Where on9 man gets rich purely through luck another gets killed by lightning, and La Grande stands just as much of a show of being destroyed by a thunderbolt as it does ot attaining any marked degree of pros perity through the channels of luck. ' It usually requires effort to secure success, and effort that is properly directed. That is what the commercial organiza tion is for. It is not a scheme to boost up or hold down anybody or class, but a plan for the general good of all. It is, therefore, worthy of the eupport and encouragement of everyone. And if there is six. bits worth of enthusiasm added to every twenty-five cents worth of actual cash involved there will be substantial returns" on the whole in vestment. " East Oregonian : The proposition to establish a manufacturing plant, foundry and machine shops here is a favorable one. Favorable because if the terms of the proposition are not carried out and all that is promised is not forthcoming it will not cost the people of Pendleton in excess of $300. If the terms of the proposition are fully carried out it will be a mighty good investment to Pendle ton, and in entering into it the people take no riek whatever, the subscribers the fund having full power to make the contract and enforce the terms of the same before makinggood their promises. If the special article to be manufactured proves to be as practical as it promises, instead of forty men being permanently employed to operate this plant there will be nearer two hundred. . In any event the magnitude of the enterprise and the future of its products fully justi fies Pendleton risking $300 to test the faith of the promoters of it, and after one year, to give property worth $3500 in case they do as they propose. A traveling man just returned to The Dalles told a Ciiboniclb reporter this morning a joke on a well known engineer on the O. R. & N. Those who have traveled between Walla Walla, and Pendleton will remember that the tracks of the O. R. & N. and the Washington & Columbia River railroad run parallel out of Pendleton for a distance of some miles, ag the story goes, this engineer, we will call him "Mac." for short, was "pulling" a special with Superintendent O'Brien aboard. A short distance from Pendle ton "Mac", was speeding them along when suddenly he saw a train, also at full speed, approaching from the oppo site direction. Vieions of a death deal ing, "head on" collision darted through bis brain and quick as a flash he gave the emergency eitrnal, hoisted the lever over, and jumped. The sudden stopping of the tram brought Mr.O'Brien out in a jiffy to inquire what was the matter, and just as the engineer was telling him to look out for a collision the W. & C. train dar'.eJ past with the trainmen wondering what the superintendent and the O. R. & N. engineer were so intently discussing. Mr. O'Brien gave one look and. got bock into the coach while the engineer climbed into the cab opened the throttle and let ont a sentence which sounded something like " these parallel roads anyhow."

In his last work, speaking of the treatment of scrofula, he says: "It is hardly necessary to state that cod-liver oil is the best remedy of all. The oil should , ?"X?,n .,.n emulsion, so prepared as to be palatable." . . He also says that the hypophosphites should be combined with the oil. .Scott's Emulsion of cod liver oil, with "hypophos phites, is precisely such a preparation. 1,000,000 People Wear Wiflouglas SHoes BEST IN THE FRO CESS. $5.00 $4.00 $3.50 $2.50 $2.25 For Men Wear W.
