AN JMPENDISG CRISIS.
Matters have gone from bad to
worse in Austria, and it seems almost
impossible to avoid civil war or a
disruption of the empire. The
Czechs are trying the same tactics
that they used in forcing the lan
guage decree fronrthe Badeni min
istry, only in more violent form, and
which were copied by the Germans
in forcing Badeni out. Hungary is
looking on in disgust, and not alto
gether unwilling to see the dual mon
archy go to pieces. So far the per
sonal influence of the emperor and
the dread of consequences stand in
the way of complete disruption; but
at any time they may prove ineffect
ual to stem the tide of social hostil
ity which grows constantly more
bitter. Germans and Czechs bate
each other with extreme virulence,
and the Magyars are suspicious of
both.
The possible disruption of the em
pire raises some very interesting
questions, the answers to which it is
impossible to forsee. Will German
Austria go to Germany?: May not
a great Hungarian empire, possibly
even a republic, be the magnet for
the Balkan principalities? What
will Russia and Germany say ? They
feel that they have a right to dictate
the action of their neighbors incase
of threatened revolution, as when
just now they forbade the Greeks to
dispense with King George and bis
courts, and an independent govern
ment in Southeastern Europe would
scarcely be to their liking. What is
to become, too, of the famous Aus
tro Russian agreement in regard to
the partition of European Turkey ?
The next few weeks may see great
changes, unless Lord Salisbury's
steam roller gets to work.
The revenues under the Dingley
Act are not yet sufficient to meet
the expenses. It has now been in
operation four full months and has
"yielded about $35,000,000, the de
ficit being nearly $46,000,000 for the
five months cf the fiscal j ear. The
customs income was the smallestffor
the period in many 3'ears, and the
question has been raised whether the
new tariff is not, therefore, a failure.
In answer to the, contentions of its
opponents who disbelieved in it Jrom
the first, its friends declare that nor
mal conditions in importation have
not yet been reached; that immense
quantities of sugar, wool, woolen
goods were imported in the four or
five months while the Dingley bill
was pending, in anticipation of the
advance in rates, and that the market
was so well stocked that importations
have consequently been unusually
light during the past four months.
Mr. Dingley thinks the law is work
inj satisfactorily. He says the an
ticipatory importations paid upwajrd
of $32,000,000 into the treasury; un
der, the present law they would have
paid over $83,000,000., The in
ternal revenue features are working
admirably. . Including - the receipts
from this source, the income has ad
vanced from $18,000,000 in August
to $24,000,000. Two or . three
months additional will show whether
the customs schedules aie adequate
revenue producers. If any deficit is
left at all if will probably be small
and can be met by an additional
tax on beer; or, better ttill, by less
extravagant; appropriations. More
economy in expenditures would be
a national blessing.
Already the rush to Klondike
seems to have bpgun. liere can be
little doubt that a mighty stream of
people will pour to the Pacific coast
next spring headed tp the frozen
North. Now is the time for Oregon
to better herself. Many, of these
people will come with moneyv and
should our resources be set forth in
an appropriate manDer, many can be
induced to remain in this land of
plenty, instead of taking precarious
chances among the gloomy mountains
of Alaska. Now is the time to press
the work. Portland is doing well,
and the rest of the state should do
its best to assist.
