It would appear from tho follow ing written to the State Democrat and signed "S. that a high pro tective tariff does not check strikes and may even aggravate them. The advocates of "protection"' will please consider tho following and give us the result of their considera tion: Of the 22l important strikes which have occurred since Harrison's election only 27 have occurred in in dustries not specially "protected" by high tariff taxation. Tho remaining 11)0 were all in industries which, un der the high tan If, have a monopoly of tho market, and are supported by taxes levied on the labor employed in them, and all other industries. The silk-workers' strike in New 4rsi'v was against a reduction of wages un der a "protective' tax of T0 per cent. The coal operators of Pennsylvania, who shut down and threw 7.000 men out of employment, are protected by a tax of 75 cents a ton against the im portation of soft coal. Tho New York carpet manufacturers, who marched their men in Harrison pro cessions and cut wages all along the the hue after his election, are highly favored by the tariff. The highly "protective'' Clark thread mills in New Jersey forced n 15 per cent, reduction of wages in April, and in the same month 10.000 men were thrown out of work by the closing down of mills, mines and factories, all "protected." The coal and iron strikes in Pennsylvania against a reduction were followed b collapses in the woolen industry, for which a triple iariff is levied. These cases are only a few frcni tne long record of disasters, strikes and reductions of wages which have followed the adoption of tho Kopub lican declaration, that every dollar of the tax on whisky must be repealed rather than surrender a dollar of tho tax on the necessaries of life. Our "protective tariff friends view these things only from a pre d'el and party standpoint. Our "party" rings out the cry. and we swell the chorus with happj acvlanuttions of hearty endorsement. "(mi cv "party" sees the "hand writing on the wall." and with Harrison at the head, we advocate a revision of the tariif, so that in a measure we may drown the sounds of rejoicing of our Demo cratic friend at the downfall of lo p leuii i--,u ss i. - ' v.-. i by il." vuice of thy peoTi in the re cent uiuuiions. liav work so u; mav Oivoo foon rrfdoein herself from the "M;!in tLr.'udctn" in wlnVh sue was c-.-t :u o .r l:j-:r -k-ctic:i. ami may our ;p husbaiidui":!, our manufactories od onr every industry r.-ceivo new uixs by a return to tlru wm of tax ation which guarantee-) equality to all alike. AMERICAN LIGHTHOUSES. The Lighthouse Board has submit ted its report for the fiscal year end ing June 30, 1889, to the Secretary of the Treasury. At the close of the year there were under control of the board 1.021 lighthouses and lighted beacons, 1.328 lights on Western riv ers, and -1.284 buoys of various kinds. In the maintenance of these there are employed 1,031 light keepers and a number of miscellaneous employes. The estimates for the ensuing year aro S2.o7(5.7(M). The estimates for special appop.i .tions aggregate 3 -200.G50. Tho deficiency estimators The board reports that the effort to light Gedney Channel, New York Hay. by electric lights, has been suc cessful thus far. Scicnfflc American. An other deposit of tin ore is re ported, this time in Langcll valley, Ivlamath Co., Oregon. This makes three now known in the United Statss. One of these is now being worked in the lilack hills, and tho other is a re cent discovery in Washington. If the Oregon and Washington deposits prove valuable, it will probably not be many years before the United States will cease to import that most valuable metal, and possibly begin exporting it. Thelitile cigarette is not kicking ag.'iinst the tobacco tax. it is thriving under it According to the renort of the commissioner of internal revenue, cigarette manufacturing is the mort prosperous industry iu the country. The increase in the number of ciga rettes smoked in this country last year is something near 3,U(lO,000. And yet tho President says that to bacco culture is an important agri cultural industry which needs to be relieved from taxation, while the workingiiion should be forced to con tinue paying double price for his flannel shirt and for the salt that goes into his broad. The President's view seems to be based on the theory that the cigarette is a tender little article that ufcds the fostering care of the government while the workinginan is a robust fellow who can stand double taxation. Ho will discover later on that tho cigarette has no vote, while the workingman has. La Grande Journal tiKMJKAI. XHWis. A cavo occurred at the Lane mine. Augeles camp. Calaveras co..

While electricity is killing people on tho smallest pu.ocation and burn iug buildings, there are two murder ers waiting execution in New York for the courts to find out wnether it will do fatal work.

A failure of crops is the cause of their sufferings. Seattle, which a few months ago was devastated by tire announces that it has raised s2".oi:. to be given i the winner of the Sullivan-Jackson light, provided the mill takes place at or near Seattle within nine months. Those who contributed money to llame-swept Seattle to assist her in re-building her industries, evidently didn't include mills of the character suggested. Siuulay Welcome.
