r ' j , ! Rescuing Revision ,
SENATOR Smoot forecasts thaf the senate tariff bill will
jiot be readywhen'congTess reconvenes, which means it
will not be open for discussion much before November, j Un
doubtedly tariff-making then will carry over into the regular
session, in which case Norris arid Brookhart can probably
prolong the agony until mid-winter if not until spring, i But
the senate has been hearing from! the country and from bus
iness interests and is finding that its job is to pull the teeth
in the jmeasure so it will meet with a reasonable degree of
i public assent. The Ilnwtey till has not been well received even
bv the! republican nartv. Its revision was too comprehensive
and its rates too high to meet general approval, particularly
in this1 day when business is Feekmz to expand its market.
! I The sucar schedule for instance, which must be 'a reall
answer to prayer for Smoot and his church, has met withj
, such criticism that a "sliding scate" is proposed as a way ' out ;
of the dilemma. This substitutes a' new principle in tariff
making. The protective principle heretofore has been to fix
duties in a sum which will equal the difference in the cost
of f production at home and abroad. This difference in the
case of sugar, was estimated by the tariff commission after
exhaustive study to be 1.23 cents per pound, while the pres
ent duty on CuLan tugar is 1.76 and the, proposed duty is
2.40. But the "sliding scale" plan is a price-fixing device in
effect if not in purpose, the amount of the tariff being Jde
termined not by the difference in cost but by the domestic
'. price, i -
Mark Sullivan, in his letter to The Qregonian, comments
on the change ofsfront in the senate and the prospect of a
sharp revision of the revision. He writes as follows, in part:
r, "The prevailingly unfriendly reception of the house biU by the
country lies beneath most of the causes for the present intention; to
rhave the senate -write a more reasonable bllL Republican house mem
j bers have been in their home districts during recess, and from many
j parts of the country the report is that a more reasonable bill is im-
perative, in view of the congressional elections next year.
There is a ' narrower section of public sentiment which has
been even more influential in bringing about the present state; of
mind, at Washington. Business generally, and especially the big In
dustries, hare thrown their weight on the side of moderation. This
takes away the urgency upon precisely those senate republicans who
- In 'the past have been the ones through whom big tariffs have come
about. (Actually some senators familiar as high tariff advocates in
past revisions are In the present revision under pressure from busi
ness for moderation.
f "For this attitude from the. largest sections of business there
are two causes. They want tariff moderation for the sake of stabil
ity, business as well as poltlcal. Secondly, they nave, become large
exporters- As such they want friendly foreign markets for their ex
' porti. 'They haev been impressed by the resentment of foreign na
tions against the house bill." ;i - 'Ml

Facing the Emergency
TITE WONDER if the council when it faces the "emefg

the audacity to retain the "emergency" clauses which are
to the ordinances
that have received first

v There is no emergency. H I
i The play has simply been marred by the bus company's
errors1. It has marched uphill and jthendownhill so frequently
that the public mind is awhirl as to what it wants and why
Jit -wants whatever it does want. The Statesman was cordial
f; to onej of its ordinances, gave it editorial blessing. Then when

The Jews Srieak Out
T leas? one religious body has spoken out against the
suppression of information on birth control, the divulsr-
ence of which is sow rated as a crime. The Social Justice
commission of the Central Conference of American Rabbis
presented a report at the 40th convention held last week in
Detroit in which it recognized birth control as one method of
coping; with some of the social problems of the day. The re
port, wkich was "presented by Rabbi Edward " L. Israel of
Blatimore, contained the following: ti i-; ;

BITS for BREAKFAST
-By R. JT. HENDRICKS
Who can answer this? j
Who built the second and third
dwellings in Salem, and who Uved
in them?
The first annual meeting of the
Oregon Pioneer association was
held . near Butteville, the second
at the Aurora park, and the third
at the state fair grounds, June 15,
1875. The principal addresses
were delivered by Judge Matthew
Deady. Hon. Geo. P. Hounan
and former Senator J. W. Neai&lth.
They were notable addresses.-! Mr.
Nesmith reviewed the J Immigra
tion of 1843, and gave the roll call
of the first covered wagon train.
It has been referred to by nearly
aU historical writers since. He
also gave the names, as he remem
bered them, of the white settlers
In the Oregon Country when that
first large body of settlers arrtred;
also 'the names of the . missionar
ies who were in the country He
regretted that he could not give
the names of tbe French settaers,.
superannuated employees, of! the
Hudson's Bay company with In
dian wives, but he commended
them highly as honest i and loyal
citizens and spoke ot the fact that
they had volunteered to fight in
tbe Indian wars, as readily? and
generally as aay other body of
men in the country, and had con-

; The Oreronian has: nearly Ihree-auarters of a column i on the
'sugar tariff complex.. It leans toward a: sliding scale for a sugar
tariff to Tprotect producer and consumer.' That would seem logical
for The Oregonlan'a editorial policy seems to be a "sliding one.'

In the course of his addresses

these Canadians, who lived near
Champoeg, who was one ot Lewis
a Clark's .party that came In
1804,' and subsequently returned
here in the: Hudson's Bay, com
pany's service, and for many rears
enjoyed the appeUation, "the old

William Cannon, residing inear
there, who came to the country In

There were no; settlers ! east of the

settlements were confined to the

There were! no settlers on the

of Marion, and George) Gay, living

the first brick house ' in Oregon,

now Sacramento; a distance of 800
miles south, was the nearest white
settlement la any direction Said
Mr. Nesmith: fOa the west aide of

as The Robing West, owned by
Robert Moor, and Just below it,

towns were known. Tbe present
site ot Portland was a solitude sur
rounded with a dense forest of fir
trees."
Oregon's public service
slon has been under fire
commis-recently
Now for the answer: Who built
the second and third houses In Sa-
em? It is possible that -Mr. Nes
mith referred to the three houses
of the Methodist mission, and that
there were no others when the
1843 immigrants arrived ' in the
fall. i
V S
The Methodist mission under Ja
son Lee began in 1840, after the
arrival of the Lausanne with the
great reinforecement" and the
supplies, the construction of "the
mills." The machinery was brought
on the Lausanne. They were a saw
mill, and a grist mill. That fall,
Gustavus Hlnes, Jason Lee and Dr.
White started from the "old mis
sion" on horseback for their trip
to the Umpqua. They made a short
stop on Chemeketa plain, to see
about the work on "the mills.")
That was August 18th. The next
building was the Jason Lee resi
dence, still standing. Some his
torian described It as the finest
house In Oregon at that time. It
was built right after it not along
with the saw; and grist mills. The
mills were oat North -Mill creek,
where the Oregon Electric track is
now. The Jason Lee house was a
little to the south; on what is how
Broadway. It is 980 Broadway.
That would make "three hous
es," mentioned by Nesmith. Per
haps they were the only ones in
what is now Salem, in the fall of
1843.
Any way, the huestlon is per
tinent. Who built the next two
houses in what is now Salem?

WILBUR VISITS MEDFORD
Secretary Wilbur knows this
country, and has definite Ideas
about what should be done, to
best develop and preserve its na
tural resources. One feels confi
dent he will never generalize about
subject until he has carefully
studied it from all angles, but
particularly from the angle of hu
man betterment.
Already in a few months he has
initiated more new policies and
done more constructive work than
any Secretary of the Interior in
the history of this country. Has
he done too much? Many of the
political experts In Washington
think so.
But we are inclined to doubt it.
In fact, we believe the people of
this country are pretty well fed
up on the time-serving politician
type, and are eager for the sort of
thing President Hoover ii the se
lection ot Secretary Wilbur is giv
ing them, the expert in public
service, the man who knows his
job . and has only one real ambl
tlon, to unselfishly serve his coun
try through it. ' -
i
It that is not true, theri it slmp-
iy means the people ot this country
do not want real efficiency In the
public service, and all effort in
this direction la our present stage
