Tbe declination of Speaker Henderson to accept tbe nomina tion for congress, unanimous! tendered him by tbe republicans of Iowa, is ha vine tbe cttect at least of bringing an unequivocal expression from the leaders and eminent men of the patty on tbe question of tariff revision. And we find them standing firmly up on the tariff plank in the Nation al republican platform of 1896, which declares strongly for the principal of protection to Ameri can workmen,- but holds that the Question ot rates is a practical question, to be governed by the conditions ot the time aud of pro duction. Here is where the par ty has always stood, stands today and will stand in 1904. President Roosevelt, Postmaster-General Payne, Senators Spooner, Hanna, Alison, Aldrich, Lodge, Eeveridge ; Congressmen Henderson and Tongue; Ex Speaker Reed, and our own "grand old man" Gen. George Williams, as well as every other republican whose voice is worth listening to, are standing shoul der to shoulder for the policy of protection. "With reference to the ques tion of tariff revision," says Geo. H. Williams, "I wish to say that I agree with Senator Hanrfa and Sneaker Henderson. That this country is prosperous is univer sally admitted, and our best poli cy, in my opinion, is to let well enough alone. I think it must be conceeded that the protective tariff has had much to do with building up the prosperity of the country, and, it congress nee commences to tinker with the tariff, no one can tell where the changes will stop. The chances are that an attempt to change the tariff will create a feeling of apprehension and uncertainty, and seriously disturb prosperous business conditions. I believe it to be true in the history of this country that when we have had a protective tariff, the times have been good, but the people can't stand prosperity, and have re peatedly demanded a change, As soon as the tariff was reduced, business was impaired and hard times followed. Then there was a demand for a return to a pro tective tariff, and prosperity fol lowed." Whatever changes are made in the schedule of tariffs will be made by the friends of protection These changes, too, will be made in the interest of justice and not in a spirit of vengeance to the trusts. It is too early to say what, it any, changes should be made by the next congress, Congressman Tongue says, whether or not there are tariff schedules that shelter trusts, can be settled upon careful examina tion. "It might be true today. It might not be true when the next congress meets. Condi tions constantly change." And the Oregonian says, Mr. Tongue's 'assertions are impregnable and his reasoning cannot be an swered." WE HAVE SOME IN OREGON. The countrv will hear with surprise and regret that Speaker Henderson has written a letter to his constituents in the Dubuque district declining to be a candi date for re-election. Mr. Hen derson gives as a reason the fact that free trade disaffection exists in the district, and, as a sincere protectionist, he will not yield his convictions. This result comes from the spurious republi canism that has been cultivated in Iowa by academic cranks and secret enemies of tbe republican partv. There are expressions on the tariff in the Iowa republican platform that are not to be found in any national platform of the party, and never will be endors ed by republicans in general. These uneasy so-called Iowa re publicans, gladly aided by dem ocrats, have squirmed about un til they have disgusted a square, consistent republican like Hen cerson, who is serving his ninth term in the house, and holds the highly important position of speaker. His district must con tain a fair assortment of political idiots to force such an able man and commanding figure from the track. Is it not time for republi cans to call a halt on members of the party, no matter how high their station, who are trying to lead the party into the mire and calamity of free trade theorizing, based on the palpable falsehood that protection is responsible for the existence of trusts? St Louis Globe-Democrat, tlie FirS in Alsea. Richard Zaha came out from his Alsea home, Friday, and brought a load of cascara bark 1 with him. He reports that the fires which recently" swept thront'Irthe forests of the Coast Ranges are about out now.

Where the timber was wholly green it did not burn very badly, bat take a quarter-section of timber that had thirty or forty acres of dead timber on it and the chances of any timber, dead or green, escaping destruction were slim, indeed. ,The dead timber in such a case acted as kindling, as it were. The fires burned to the very edge of Alsea valley and had the wind continued from the north a day or so longer, Mr. Zahn says there would have been nothing left of Alsea, save the name. The firfes once started in - the stubble fields and no power on earth could have stopped them. Luck ily, the wind died down in the niche o'time, and to this, and nothing else, is due the tact that Alsea is on the map toda.v, he was, one or two declares. As it residents were partly burned out. The College. The Agricaltaral and Mechanical Col lege of Oregon is finely located at Cor vallis in the heart of the Willamette Val ley. There are evidences that this in stitution has not progressed iu the past as it should have done. The farmerof Oregon have been far tod careless and in different to this institution, peculiarly their own. The sleepy ones are still sleeping, but there are a good many in the state who are pretty well awake now--adays, and matters are rapidly changing for the better. A large, well constructed building is now nearly completed, which will be occupied wholly by the agricul tural department. Dr. Withycombe with his associates will have ample room for all the requirements of his force for some time to come. Tbe building is a fine structure architecturally and a cred it to all concerned. - Oregon farmers are remiss in that they do not back up Dr. Withycombe in his efforts to advance the animal industry at this institution as they should. The Ag riculturat College is struggling as best it can, carrving on farmers institute work with but little or no direct financial sup port from the state. The next legisla ture of Oregon should give its agricultur al college at least $5000 annually for this one line of effort. Twice that sum could be expended with the certainty of mag nificent results for the investment Ore gon Agriculturist. Experimenting With Hops. The Oregon Experiment btauon is conducting an investigation of hops and hop-drying which promises to give some very interesting and in all probability highly valuable results. While the in vestigations have not yet been carried far enough to warrant a formal announce meat ot what has been done, it has been found already that the popular, opinion of the location and development of lnpu- lin is wrong. The common method of drying hops carries off much of the lup ulin as it becomes quite volatile if the temperature to which it is exposed rises above 110 degrees. The Station has con structed apparatus by which it expects to be able to ascertain how much of the lup ulin is carried off in the air when bops are dried in the ordiaary way. It is also experimenting with various methods of drying hops by which this loss nity be reduced without increasing the cost of drying. It is hoped that as a result of these experiments. Oregon hop-growers may be supplied with information which will enable them to' give their product an even better reputation than the Oregcn hops now enjoy. Resolutions of condolence.
