THEIR GAIN OUR LOSS.
The strongest confirmation of the
troths the Republican press has been
stating regarding the operation of
the Wilson bill comes from England.
The commercial relations of Great
Britain and this country are so ad
justed that the prosperity of the one
means business disaster to the other.
Upon the enactment of the present
tariff measure it was claimed the
manufacturers of England would be
the great beneficiaries, and that the
profits which under the McKinley
act were obtained and circulated in
this country would be transferred
across the water and help to swell
the coffers of English millicnaires.
The reports of trade in England
during the past j'ear cr more have
justified these assertions, but now
they are confirmed by official state
ment. Last Thursday Sir Michael
Hicks-Bflach, the Chancellor of the
Exchequer, arose in the house of
commons and made the budget
statement. In prefacing his report
the chancellor said that this had
J?een a wonderful year for England,
in spite of the fact that the expendi
tures had been the largest since the
great war. The surplus was the
greatest ever known and a larger
sum was devoted to the redustion of
the national debt than ever before.
What a contrast with the condition
of things in Ameiica! England
with a surplus; the United States
with a deficiency amounting to many
millions. England devoting money
to the reduction of her national debt;
w,e adding constantly and immensely
to ours. The surplus in England for
1895-96 is over $20,000,000; the
deficiency in America for the same
time is a far greater sum.
The chancellor said the condition
of the working class had greatly im
proved, and the prosperity of the
nation had increased so much that a
material reduction would be made
in the rand tax of the country.
In the light of Christian unselfish
ness it may be pleasant for American
workingmen to read of the prosper
ity of their English brethren, but the
comparison with their own condition
makes too strong a contrast to give
satisfaction. The American work
ingman was never worse off than he
is today. With thousands out of
employment, with wages reduced,
and with families suffering, can it be
expected that the American work,
ingmen will look with approval
upon apolicy that robs them of their
birthright and gives it to the people
of a foreign nation ? ...
England's picsent prosperity is
due to Democratic legislation in
America. No wonder the Democrats
in this country refuse to condemn
Ambassador B3Tard for making
pretty speeches full of falsehood to
the Eng.'ish people when every ac
tion of the party he represents has
been to favor that nation. It is
only needed to compare English
prosperity with American depression
to understand the iniquity which the
country is suffering because of Dem
ocratic legislation.
The speech of Secretary CarsKsle
delivered before the working men of
Chicago, is well worthy of perusal.
The fact was made apparent- that
the greatest sufferers by the debase
ment of our currency would be the
laboring men. The storv of Mexico
is a warning against any such action
as the silver fanatics advocate.
Mexico represents the "ultime thule"
of the silverites, and in no country
is the condition of the laboring man
more lamentable. The only gainers
in this country from a change to a
silver basis, besides the silver mine
owners, would be the debtor class,
who would be able to pay in money
at half value. But their satisfaction
would be short lived, as capital
would be further drawn from in
vestment and more borrowing be
come almost impossible.
Multnomah county can wage the
present campaign upon the currency
question. In the rest of the state
the issue will be protection. Which
of the two will cause the more en
thusiasm ?
WHAT THE PENDLEEON PAPER
SAYS.
Cast Oreponian : The Dalles papers
are still thundering against the failure
to complete the government locks at the
Cascades and are holding to account the
representatives incongreesas well as the
contractors. All government work is
carried on in this shiftless, extravagant
way, with no intent or idea of ever eerv
ing the people, bnt with full intent of
deceiving and deluding them, for profit
to favored friends of politicians and ras
cally men who pose as reliable contract
orebut who in reality are beneficiaries
of a pernicious spoils system, which
takes no recognition of merit, thorough
ness and honesty. The work of the
Cascade locks is in the hands of such
parties and nothing but eternal vigilance
will ever change the conditions sur
rounding it and secure early results to
the people of Eastern Oregon.

MOTHERS
and those soon to be-
come mothers,
should know that Dr.
Pierce's Favorite
Prescription robs
childbirth of its tor
tures, terrors and
dangers to both
mother and child, by
aiding nature in preparing-
the system
lor -parturition.
Thereby "labor"
and the period ofj
confinement are
gTeatly shortened. It also promotes the
secretion of an abundance of nourishment
for the child.
Mrs. Dora A. Guthrtb, of Oakley, Overon Co.,
Tenn., writes : " When I began taking Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription, 1 was not able to
stand on my feet without suffering almost death.
Now I do all my housework, washing, cooking,
sewing and everything for my family of eight. I
am stouter now than I have been in six years.
Your Favorite Prescription is the best to take
before confinement, or at least it proved so with
me. I never suffered Iso little with any of my
children aa I did with my last."

None But Ayer's at the World's Fair.
Ayer's Sarsaparilla enjoys the extra
ordinary distinction of having been the
only blood purifier allowed on exhibit at
the world's fair, Chicago. Manufact
urers of other sarsaparillas sought by
every means to obtain a showing of their
goods, but they were all turned away
under the .application of rtie rule for
bidding the entry of patent medicines
and nostrums. The decision of the
world's fair authorities in tavor of Ayer's
Sarsaparilla was in effect as follows:
"Ayer's Sarsaparilla Is not a patent
medicine. It does not belong to the
list of nostrums. It is here onits
merits."

"It is with pleasure I tell you that by
