The Dalles Daily Chronicle. TUESDAY NOV. 26, 1901 " PORTLAND FOR AN OPEN RI VER. If the citizens of Portland were ever Justly chargeable with Indiflfer- ence to the improvement of the Up per Columbia that wire has surely parsed, let us hope, forever. Any accusation of present indifference, as was recently made at Boise, must have been made in ignorance of all that the Poitland business men, through their chamber of commerce, have recently attempted on behalf of an open river. The Chkonic.-k recently received from that body n neat booklet containing an elaborate account of its Past and Future Work, addressed to the "Business Men, Manufacturers and Property Owners of Portland," and containing one of the strongest pleas we have ever read for "the opening of the Upper Columbia and Snake rivers to the farthest point inland to which boats may ascend." This object is men tioned as one of the "foremost among the subjects that must have the con stant attention" of the association. It is declared that "the material welfare of every resident of 245,000 square miles of territory drained by the Columbia demands an open river tn tho infynnr in -rrlt flint f I v hi- j.ikiii .u ui it.i tuub IIIL products of the Inland Empire may be hauled from the food-producing fields to tide water at the lowest pos sible cost of transport," and that to bring about this desired object the business men of Portland must unite in their own behalf and join hands wttb the producers and merchants of the Inland Empiere." As enforcing the importance of this demand, at tention is called to the fact that since the opening of the Columbia river to The Dalles railroad rates between this city and Portland have been re duced in some classes 50 per cent, and in one class over 70 per cent, while the river tariffs, as compared, with previous rail tariffs, have been reduced still more. Accompanying this booklet was a circular letter signed by the presi dent, vice-president and secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, as well as Ave members of the leading business houses of Portland. Among other questions relating to Portland, to Oregon, to the lower river and to the mouth of the Columbia, The Chron icle is asked : Are you in favor of opening the Upper Columbia and Snake rivers to free navigation so as to give the products of the Inland Empire an outlet through the natural gateway at the mouth of the Col. mi bia?" And following this question is the statement: "The Chamber of Commerce is, and is urging the gov ernment, to take prompt action." In the light of these facts, and of the further fact that Portland's great paper is doing yeoman service along the same lines, let no mau henceforth accuse Portland of indifference on the question of an open river. The Chronicle only adds on its own behalf that it is in full and hearty sympathy with every line and syl lable in both the booklet and the circular letter. The Oregonian laments the re luctance of leading republicans and business men of the country "to in augurate any radical policy of reformation in our tariff laws so long as times are good, buiiness booming and wages high," and issues the warning: "When the next check of industry shall come, as come it will; when business shall cease to boom, as sense it will, let the worshipers of the protection fetich look out! The like has been seen before. There are those who still remember 1892." Ay, there's the rub. There are, in deed, those who remember 1892, and lots of them at that. And tbey re member that tbe horrors of the suc ceeding yean followed as tbe direct and immediate result of a prosperous people giving too credulous heed to the aame old gang of political sooth- sayers who are now warning us that the time baa again come when we shoul.l "inaugurate a radical policy ; of reformation in our tariff laws." j Nor do they forget that after the cataclysm of 1892 the country never ft monmVa pr08pr,ty tl ,t 8wept lho ..ra(iical reformers" from j powep and l0 M,ab8hed the samo ! , nriff nn. v ... nMwbMtit i. stroyed. The tariff question cannot be opened at a single point. It might be well if it were otherwise, but it isn't otherwise. A proposed change in one schedule means a cor responding attack on many others, and a tariff contest in congress in duces, for the time being, business stagnation. At a period when times are confessedly "good, business booming and wages high" it is not unreasonable to ask our "radical re formers" to give us a lest. Under existing conditions Mark Hanna's philosophy, "let well enough alone," is not answered with a sneer. Umatilla county is threatened with a lively agitation for county division that is likely to cut an important figure in the coming state campaign in its relation to Umatilla candidates for state offices.
