There ia no question but that John Sherman has long been almost the soli tary representative of statesmanship in the senate. The great men, whoae col league he was through the days of re construction and legislation upon the issues left by the war, no longer are seen in the senate chamber, while the men who occupy their seats have shown neither the same mental grasp nor in fluence. The country listens when Sherman speaks, as long experience, close study and unflinching patriotism give him qualifications for leadership. His speech in the senate last Tuesday should be read by every voter in -the land, especially by the constituents of (be silver senators, who just now are lilocking legislation. Sherman emphat ically declared : "It is a disgrace to our civilization, it is a disgrace to the country itself that ive Are now expending $30,000,000 a year more than the receipts of the govern ment, and that the congress now in ses sion, with both houses fully armed with power to furnish the revenue, is idle and refuses to act. I will vote for a tax on tea, on coffee, on anything in order to meet this deficiency, and I say that if The present congress does adjourn in the face of the declarations now made to us, of the official reports sent to us, of statements by the president of the United States, and of the secretary of the treasury, that we are now going on day by day like a careless spendthrift, to involve the country in debt, Belling bonds when it is the duty of congress at once to supply the revenue, that such action will be shameful." Later he declared that "any private citizen who would preserve such a course in bis financial affairs, however rich he might be, would soon lose his credit and hia reputation for solvency and good sense." It is time for the senate to give beed to these warning words, and for the crowd who are preventing' tariff leg islation to note the universal disap proval with which their action meets. MAKE OUR RESOURCES KNOWN. The enbject of immigration is one which should interest the people of Ore gon at the present time. Over in Wash ington the newspapers are discussing the best means of inducing immigration, and a state board has been formed, with the end in view of making Washington and its resources known wherever there V people who are thinking of changing homes. Only through organized efforts can any great results in this direction be obtained. The' Real Estate Exchange of The Dalles is doing a good work in sending to people in the East a pamph let descriptive of Wasco county. No large amount of money was collected for this purpose, but the sum obtained has been judiciously nsed. The Northwest is but in the infancy of development. But a small portion of onr area is occupied in comparison to the thousands of acres whose soil has never been broken. Manufacturing in terests, for which we have abundant facilities, cannot reach much develop ment until the country is more gener ally settled. The desirability of induc ing immigration being admitted, the only question is how best to obtain the desired results. The Real Estate Ex change has made a good beginning. Its immigration movement should be aided both financially and otheiwise. Wher ever it is thought the sending of pamph lets would work any good, the names and localities should be handed to the members ' of the Exchange. Wasco county offers manifold attractions to the home-seeker, and when our resources are advertised and understood abroad, a decided increase in our population will follow. " ' For the fourth week in January the number of business failures throughout the United States was 393 ; for the cor responding week of 1895,312; in 1894, 340; in 1893, 271, and in 1892 it was 279. The Democratic tariff bill- has been in operation nearly eighteen months, and yet we were told at the time of its pas sage that a few months would Bhow its good workings. The business of the country is demoralized, and will be un til this nniquitous measure is superseded by a tariff bill of Republican enactment. The election of delegates in the South is favorable so far to McKinley. The seventh congressional district in Mis souri instructed its delegates to the na tional convention for him, while recent reports, from Alabama indicate that he will have eighteen votes of the twenty two which represent the state. At this early day it looks as if it will be McKin ley against the field, though all conjec tures of the candidates' relative strength are made from insufficient data. ' The recommendations for the im provement of the Willamette from Port land to Eugene indicate that it might be cheaper to build a new river between the points named. But however great the cost, the people of the upper Wil lamette valley are entitled to have the river made navigable at all seasons of the year. An open river is the best regulator of transportation charges. While it was to be expected that the Bayard resolution would take on a par tisan coloring, yet its passage will meet with approval. It would be well for our ambassadors and ministers to learn that they are to represent the nation, and not a political party, especially when that party is out of favor because of its incapacity to govern.
