LET GOOD ENOUGH ALONE.
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. Here .

fire. 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

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.
