NATIONAL LIFE OR SILVJ2R.
"No protection until there ia a straight
and genuine Republican senate and a
president of the same pattern." This ie
the answer, eays the Tribune, of the
Democrats, Populists and silveritea to
the overwhelming majority by which
the people have demanded the restora
tion of protective duties. . And there are
Democrats so obtuse that they imagine
that this condition will help their party.
The American people do not take a slap
in the face with meekness, if Demo
crats only knew the fact, but are in the
habit of making their will known and
respected. They strike back, sometimes
smashing things which at first they had
not recognized as hostile to their wel
fare. In 1856 they demanded no further
extension of slavery. The Lecompton
Democracy- disregarded and insulted
them. When they struck back slavery
went out of existence as an enemy of
national life, and Democracy went out
of power for thirty years. So in 1894
they demanded a restoration of protec
tive duties. The Democrats and silver
ltes defy and insult them. The Ameri
can people will strike back ; of that
every man who knows America is sure.
It is not their wav to smash only the
trickster! and demagogues who appear
on the surface, but the causes behind
them whicli make such demagogues pos
sible, and which threaten the nation's
prosperity.
Their natural impulse will be to
smash the silver interest bodily every
fragment or trace of intention to use
silver as money except as a token, just
as paper is used to represent gold. That
has not heretofore been the temper of
the nation. It was not the temper of the
nation to destroy human slavery until
slavery made war. But anything that
threatens the nation's life and prosper
ity, be it what it may, Americana will
treat an an enemy. Had any slave
holding state instantly stamped out dis
loyalty, and made it known that Blave
nolding was not necessarily hostile to
national life, the result might have been
different. The silver states will now
proceed to show, and quickly, whether
they mean to put silver before national
welfare and national honor. If they
mean that, the people will quickly and
arely make an end of all talk of bimet
allism in this country, and of every
thought of compromising with an inter
est which threatens both the honor and
the prosperity of the nacion.
Predictions are not expensive or valu
able, silver men may say. The best
that any friend can do today is to state
'without reserve precisely what pnblic
opinion is in regard to the latest mani
festation of hostility to the public wel
fare. For it must not be forgotten that
the silver bolters are exactly in the atti
tude of the slave-holding rebels who put
their personal convictions and interests
before the welfare of the Nation. These
silver men avow a conviction that pro
tection of American industry is neces-
eary to the Nation's prosperity and the
well-beinjc of 20,000,000 wage-earners,
wool-growers and lumbermen ; but they
deliberately threaten to deny this ad
mitted public need in order to serve in
terests of. their own. The kindest thing
that anybody can do is to tell them that
be who makes war on the welfare of the
American people goes down, and cannot
begin to guess how far popular indigna
tion may alter previous inclinations re
specting the interests which thus defies
the declared will of the nation.
Men who have honestly advocated bi
metalism, but not free coinage of silver
by the United States alone, have been
placed in a false position for years by
the demands of the silver interest." It
is the naked truth that most of them
are today in the humor to treat the
whole business as the nation treated
slavery, when that interest was not con
tent with toleration, but demanded ex
tension into every territory or disrup
tion of the union. Men of great power
are now saying to each other: "This
has gone too far, and if bimetal
lism means destruction of national in
dustries there must be an end of all
compromise or concession." Nobody
except the silver men themselves can
check or modify that "feeling. They can
do it only by burying out of eight every
politician who attempts or threatens to
put the silver interest before the welfare
and the honor of the nation. For the
nation needs protection of its industries,
and will have it. The nation knows
that its honor requires revenue large
enough to cover its expenses, and will
have that revenue raised. The men
who refuse both are going to find a tre
mendous national and loyal feeling,
even in the Etates which they imagine
exclusively devoted to the silver inter
est.
THE CASCADE LOCKS.
Mitchell Monitor: The people of
Eastern Oregon and Washington are
again doomed to disappointment in re
gard to. an open river. The locks are
not open at the time agreed upon, nor is
there any certainty about when they
will be opened. It is, to say the least,
very strange that the government en
gineers should wait until now to dis
cover that certain things must be done
before the canal could be used. It looks
as though some "influence" had blinded
the eyes of those -whose duty it is to
oversee the construction of government
works, isut it is idle to speculate on
the course of such vexatious delays.
The fact remains that the locks are un
opened and will remain so for, perhape,
a year or two.
Goldendalo Sentinel : March 1st has
come and gone and the locks at the
Cascades are as useless to the Inland
Empire, so far as their present benefit
is concerned, as they were before a stone
had been turned preparatory to their
construction. For these public works
Uncle Sam has squandered a large sum
of money ; but from them, as yet, our
citizens have reaped no practical benefit.
Their early completion has been prom
ised once too often, and the people of
the Inland Empire will not be hood
winked longer. With a great deal of
bombaeity on the part ot "Col." Day,
the work was promised to bo so far ad
vanced as to allow boats to pass through
by the first of this month. Only another
broken promise. Therefore for good
and sufficient reasons are The Dalles pa
p rs aroused and wish to know the whys
and wherefores for these delays. The
people have been duped long enough,
and henceforth will not sit idly by in
acquiescent silence and wait, meekly
wait, and murmur not. Every news
paper situated in the territory contingent
to the great Columbia should no longer
remain eilent, bnt arouse public opinion
to that extent which will bring so great
a pressure to bear on our senators and
representatives that they will heed and
obey; then will the time soon come
when the waters of the mighty Oregon
will roll on nnchecked to the sea, bear
ing on her broad boeem the products of
the great Inland Empire, which will re
main in unbroken bulk until they have
reached the briny waters of the sea.-
