England a generation ago made
jute, flax and silk free. Its jute
manufacture has gone to India, its
flax mills in thirty-five years have
dropped from thirty or forty to four
or five above Leeds, and those eai
ployed from 20,000 to 5000, with
like results in other parts of Eng
land; and the silk manufacture of
England has removed to South
France.
Harvard, Yale, Columbia and
"Williams college teach their students
free trade theories. Indeed the
majority of our colleges teach the
free trade philosophy of revenue and
taxation, except those of Pennsyl
vania. This is not a very significant
fact, for a great many colleges teach
a good deal that the graduate in
after life finds out to be mere
scholastic rubbish. The pedagogue
is not always, nor often, a statesman.
In an interview at Venice, Don
Carlos declared that Spain must be
come one of the great European
powers, that her navy must be im
mediately strengthened, and that
obligatory service was essential.
The present monarchy, he said, was
unfitted to carry on the work before
it, and unless it was replaced, he
was strongly of the opinion that a
republic would soon come. The
Spanish future lay in Morocco and
South America. Don Carlos ex
pressed his readiness to fight for
the Spanish cause the moment he
was called.
Laing, in his travels in Norway,
says that the horsea in that country
have a very sensible way of taking
their food. Instead of swilling
themselves with a pailful of water
at a draught, from the fear of not
getting any again, and then over
gorging themselves for the same
reason, they have a bucket of water
put down beside their allowance of
hay. It is amusing to see with
what relish they take a sip of one
and a mouthful of the other alter
nately, sometimes only moistening
their mouths, as a rational being
would do while eating a dinner of
such dry food. A broken-winded
horse is scarcely ever

VIEWS O.V THE TARIFF.
The New York Time says that
Thomas Gale, president of the
Onondaga Salt works, is an English
man by birth, but has been a resi
dent of Salina, near Syracuse, N.Y.,
for fifty-one years, and has been in
the salt business forty years. He is
a democrat in politics.
"I go to New York," says Mr.
Gale, "with a cargo of salt, and meet
a man from Europe with a cargo of
salt. He comes into New York
free. We both sell at the same
price. Very well. My cargo has
paid a school tax, a highway tax, a
poor tax, a law and order tax, a
county tax and a state tax. That
man's cargo has paid nothing.
Shall we do by strangers better
than we do by our own citizens, or
shall we stop all improvements and
.all progress? The foreigner takes
the money away and improves his
surroundings. The land that now
pays one-tenth of all the tax in the
town of Salina through the manu
facture of salt, didn't pay a shilling
tax fifty years ago."
"Then, again," said Mr. Gale, "if
we want cheap salt we must make
it at home. English dairy salt sold
in this market at $1.48 per bushel
iu 1848, while for the last ten years
the price has ranged from 72 to 85
cents per bushel."
A WHISTLING STATION.
"Portland is fast becoming bat little more
than a whistling station for the railroads,"
said a prominent hotel man yesterday.
The roads make such close connections
that the traveler is harried from one depot
to another and scarcely has time to eat a
meal here The result is that the hotels are
doing bat small business and the landlords
are as gloomy as a lot of sextons instead of
being jolly like they used to be. It is claim
ed by the hotel keepers that the trains
should stop for at least two hoars so as to
allow the weary traveler a short period of
rest and recreation. This would give the
hotels a chanoe to make a little something
oat ol the tourist. An effort should be made
to make Portland something more than a
whistling station.
The above complaint comes from
the Portland Neics, of a recent date.
This result has been anticipated by
us. When that journal was laud
ing the Southern Pacific and giving
Crocker, Stanford and the Califor
nia journalists columns of "free
puffs," we made the bold assertion
that those men had no regard for
Oregon further than that of vam
pires. They expected to and would
work unitedly to make Oregon trib
utary to San Francisco and Califor
nia as she had been in the past.
That our only hope for speedy de
velopment was in Oregon getting
control of one or mo0t the great,
transcontinental railways as Califor
nia controlled many. We further
declared that the Northern Pacific,
contrary to all expectations and
promises, had done little or nothing
to benefit the state; that it is a
grindiag monopoly, and iu every
instance has put up freights to the
highest point of toleration by an
oppressed people. It refuses now
to extend its lines into the mines
and further notifies the Portland
chamber that it is "cheeky," or its
equivale t, in asking a reduction of
tariff on ores from the Ctctir d'
Alene mines. Further, it is now ap
parent there will be a combination
of issues formed between the several
railway corporations whose lines ex
tend into this state, which will work
great injury to the state through
freight and passenger discrimina
tions; and nothing but the powerful
interposition of the law will restrain
these corporations from such rob
bing combination. In view of past
experience, Oregon can expect noth
ing, and must le wary in her rail
way legislation.. The railways must
not be allowed to cripple our strug
gling industries and retard immi
gration to the state. Congress
should do something; the interstate
commerce law seems to be a farce,
and the commission merely a tool in
the hands of railway corporations.
If Oregon would make the progress
possible and ia keeping with her
natural resources, she must place
herself in an independent position
and tear herself away from these
soulless monopolies vampires from
abroad, who come here to stagnate
our arteries of traffic and feast upon
our rich commercial blood, made
possible through such stagnation.
THE JOIST LEASE FOIWIODES UY
LA H'
The Oreymian says: The one
single object of the act known as
the "railway lease bill," passed by
the legislature of Oregon at the last
session, was to authorize the O. tt.
& N. company to lease their lines to
the Union Pacific. It was repre
sented that the consolidation of the
Union Pacific and the O. It. & X.
lines into a single system would be
an excellent thing for Oregon, since
it would give the state a continuous
line across the continent under a
single management, and moreover
would enlist the powerful Union
Pacific in the work of developing a
system of local lines for tho Pacific
northwest, in competition with the
Northern and other roads.
These arguments were set forth
by agents of the Union Pacific and
O. K. &. X. companies. Moved by
them thelegislature of Oregon en
acted the ' lease bill." To the terms
of that bill the O. K. & X. must
conform. Under these terms the
Union Pacific may take a lease of
the O. R. &. X., but the Xorthern
Pacific cannot.
It is necessary only to examine
the act. The act simply extends or
enlarges the general powers of the
incorporation, within the limits it
specifies; that is, incorporations are
authorized by it to exercise certain
power they were not authorized to
exercise before. These powers are
specifically defined. "In case the
object or purpose for which any
such incorporation is incorporated
is in whole or in part to construct or
construct and opeiate a railroad."
then this act authorizes such incor
poration to "lease any part or all of
its road to any other company in
corporated for the purpose of main
taining and operating a railroad,
and to lease or purchase, maintain
and operate any part or all of any
other railroad constructed by any
other company, upon such terms
and conditions as may be agreed
upon between said companies
respectively."
Now, if this were all, the O. K.
& N. company could lease it lines to
the Northern as well as to the
Union, or to the Xorthern and
Union jointly. But it is not all.
There immediately follows a re
strictive condition, to-wit: "Pro
vided, that nothing in this act shall
be construed to authorize tho leas
ing of any railroad line to anycom-
pany or corporation owning a road
which forms a competing or parallel
line to its railroad."
Consequently, since the Northern
Pacific company owns a road which
forms a competing and parallel line
to the O. It. & N., the latter com
pany is not only not authorized to
lease to the Northern Pacfic, but
positively forbidden to do so. There
can be no doubt that the authorities
of the state of Oregon will enforce
the law in this particular against the
lease of the O. It. & N. lines to the
Northern, in conjunction with the
Union, should there be an attempt
to carry the lease into effect in this
form.
Continuing the subject, that
journal publishes a letter from Van
M. De Lashmutt, in which it i
claimed that a majority of the O II.
& N. Co. directors live in Oregon,
and if they cannot prevent the pro
posed lease, they can at least delay
its consummation for a sufficient time
to allow a special session of the leg
islature to repeal the lease law.
But the Ot't'ifmian bolieves as first
stated, that the provisions of the leate
law wili prevent the proposed com
bination: but if in the judgment of
lawyers il will noIr theu ile remedy
possible in a special session must be
called to the state's relief, as the
cost of such legislative session
would be trilling as compared with
the damage to the material interests
of the state involved in the combi
nation which h;ts beeu character
ized a ' scheme to rob north and rob
south."
JOIST LEASE I SLAW El L
It is now claimed that the pro
posed joint lease of the O. K. A: N.
railroad by the Union and Northern
Pacific railroads is prohibited by the
interstate commerce law and the
companies may be enjoined from
carrying the lease into effect, as in
terpreted from the following clause:
"That it shall Im unlawful for any com
mon carrier subject to the provision? of this
net to enter into any contract, agreement or
combination with any other common carrier
or carriers for the pooling of freights of
different or competing railroads, or to di
vide lietween them the agv; rebate or net pro
ceeds of the earnings of sueh railroads or
any portion thereof: nnd iu case of an
agreement for the pooling of freight as
aforesaid, each day of its continuance shall
Ik- deemed a separate offense."
A late Washington telegram says
the house has continued Carlisle's
title to hi: scat as speaker of the
house.
Itltlrirt 4'lerk, Attention!
Kditok Indf.i'kxuknt: As some
changes were made in the school law by
the last session of the legislature in refer
ence to the duties of school clerks, per
mit me to call their attention to them
through the columns of your piper
Blanks for making the annual report
have just liecn received from Hon. E. 15.
McKlroy, superintendent of public
instruction, and forwarded to each dis
trict. These rcKi t.s must be returned
to this ottice by the first Monday of
March, according to section 42, Oregon
school laws, page 2$. This section of
the law ha not been changed, but we
find that subdi vision .1 of section
54, on page 0, adds considerable work
to district clerks in the matter of enrol
ling for school purposes all persons be
tween four and twenty years of age.
Clerks should read this sectioa carefully
and comply with the provisions thereof.
In thi- section you will fiud it necessary
to visit each habitation, home, resilience.
domicile or place of abode in the dis
i trict, and by actual observation and in
terrogation enumerate the census chil
dren of the same, etc. After your re
port is complete, it is to lie submitted
to the directors ami citizens at the
regular annual meeting on the first
Monday of March, and all corrections
necessary shall then be made, and the
clerk shall tile the original report in his
oflict? and shall forw ard a cert i tied copy
of said retort to the county superintend
ent not later than the fifteenth of March,
etc.
There is a con li n t between the first
section referred to and the last in regard
to the time of sending the clerk's iexrt
to the superintendent the first requires
the rcHrt to In; sent in by the first .Mon
day of March, and the last by the
fifteenth of the month as we are
anxious to have every report strictly
correct in every detail, and especially
the financial part, we advise clerks to
follow the directions in siilxll vision 5,
section 54. and present their reports to
the annual meeting, and if they reach
this office by the 15th of March, it will
lc satisfactory . Again, subdivision 6 of
the last section mentioned, requires that
the bonds cf the clerk shall le double
the probable amount of all school moneys
that shall come into his hands as dis
trict clerk. The Uuid shall first be ap
proved by the lHurl of directors within
ten days from the date of the election
and then sent to the county superin
tendent and placed on tile within thirty
days from the date of election. It
would le advisable, we think, for clerks
to keep a duplicate of their bond, but in
nil rases the original mti-t lc tiled in
this ollice. Clerks will please remcrnlier
that no director cau go iiHn their Iwind
section subdivision s of section 37,
page 25, of the amended school laws.
According to sulwlivision 14 of section
54, page :., the clerk shall immediately
after the annual meeting send a list of
the officers of his district to the superin
tendent. gUing the length of term and
postoflice address of eaeh director, and
the clerk or the district.
And for all this work unless there
has been a tax levied clerks get no
remuneration unless the districts are
willing to allow them some compensa
tion for their Ialors. We Iiojm? directors
will allow every clerk a reasonable
amount for actual time spent in making
reports, etc .
The duties devolving on school
officers are sometimes rather unpleasant,
and a great deal of unnecessary fault
finding is indulged in, occasionally by
patrons of the school, but this should
not deter good men from accepting such
positions, as our school interests are
worthy of the best thought and atten
tion of our people.

About six months ago I had a severe
Hemorrhage of the Lungs, brought on
