TARIEE REFORM.
The Editor of the Press, who man
es the Tariff department, evidently
ikes an occasional holiday, else how
n we account for the following most
.i rect statement of the worth of fVmer
in lubor contained in its issue of July
,'th. "The paper mill at Schuyleiville
lploys 37 men, at the average yearly
lgesof $395, and produces 11,000
unds of paper daily, or an average
arly production for each laborer of
.5 tons, inakin" the average labqr
.t of a ton of paper at that mill $8.-1
!i ,The average yearly production of
paper per capita ia the English mills
iJ$l3.46. In other words, paper is
slide at Schuylerville at a cost for
lulor of $4.59 less per ton than the
lalor cost of manufactu ring in England."
AWl in the face of such as this the
, paper men hate the imprudence to talk
about high-priced American labor and
the tariff being for the wage earner's
benefit. Even the advocates of high
tariff are betrayed into telling the
truth occasionally, as was the United
States Senator (presumably Mr. Ed
munds or Mr. Morrell) when he wrote
t,fe "strong woras ana oiwer, out
1 "The campaign which we are about
enter will concern more than any-
iy else, the manufacturers of this
intry," "who make large fortunes
ry year when times are prosperous,"
he men "who are most benefited by
tariff laws."
Ve have twlkcd so lojg about "pro-
' of American labor that a good
j honest people no doubt believe
ri the tar ff does help wages. Yet it
must strike them as at least something
to be explained that the Pennsylvania
ironmiuersshouldbeoutof work a large
portion of the year because of over
production, and that his actual wages
when v has work should be about $7
a week. And this is perhaps the most
highly ""protected of our industries.
And labor cost to produce a ten ot pig
iron in Pennsylvania is said to be $2.
"jj'he duty off a ton of pig iron is $6.75.
Wg fancy any of our rsaders could
devise a means of raising subscriptions
for a labor protection fund, by means
of which a greater amount than 32 per
cent of what was collected would reach
the pockets of those in whose name it
was asked. The manufacturers have
succeeded in making their own conimis
. ' sions in the transaction so large that it
is no wonder that they wish to retain
1 tbe position of the workingman's aJvo
I vocate, but is seems ns if it were, time
for the workingman to seak for him
self. !
Here ua specimen case, showing tbe
sincerity of Republican manufacturers
in using the "Free Trade" and "Low
AVages" argument. Senator Warner
Miller is a paper manufacturer, and we
saw from the slip just quoted from a
hi"h tariff organ, the relative cost of
labor in 'a paper mill here and in Eng
land. Now, read the following inter
view between a Mr. Gray and .a : Star
reporter: j
The Star reporter asked Mr. Gray if
the statement credited to Mr. Miller was
correctly reported in yesterday's Star.
"Yes," said Mr. Gray. "His exact
words were: 'If we can punk it down
the workingmen's throats, that free
trade means less" work and less wa-rs,
' W6wkbury this man Cleveland.'
"It should be explained that 'pun's'
is Chinese for 'push.
"I tell you I was mad," continued
Mr. Gray. "We were riding in the
iiublic stage together, and Miller drew
Tae is'o wpji&j. iV' I'linfCrsation xbo'it
the town. Then lie abked me how
Morton slock was, and I told him thai
Morton would not carry the town, and
I offered to bet him that he would not.
After he got through questioning me 1
. . . asked him to give nte his ideas of the
poFsibdity of the success of the Repub
lican ticket, and then ho made that
statement about 'punking stuff down
workingmon s throats. I just raised
my voice and told him in pretty plain
terms that he would find the American
workmen too intelligent to have his
party lies'punked down their throats."
In connection with the high wages
theory the following is interesting:
When the salt lobbyists are at
Washington pleading with Congress to
protect them, they profess a profound
interest in their oikmen, to whom, it
might be snpposed, they were paying
the most liberal wages. The census
figures expose their hypocrisy. In the
26S works given in one of the census
, table?, thcie are employed 4,289 work-
ir.g men and women. The total amount
f wages paid in a year (1880) amounted
to 1,260,023, or ninety-eiglt cents a
day, counting 300 woi king days a year.
The profit on the $8,225,740 of capital
invested was 18 per cent per annum.
Prof. A. L. Perry of Williams Col-
lege once said: "The late President
Garfield said with his own lips to the
present writer, that when he was a
member of the Ways and Means Com
mittee, every person who came before
that Committee to gst protective texes
put on or increased, came in the barest
selfishness, ' without a thought or care
except to get higher prices for his own
wares for his own countrymen. Favor
able circumstances enabled a combina
tion of capitalists to get hold of the
long arm of the national government
in 1861, and to use it then and there
after tor their own enrichment at the
constant and enormous expense of their
fellow citizens."
This remark confirms what the "the
orists" havjer been saving. There is no
intelligent effort on the part of Con
gress frame these laws in the inter
est ot the public. The Pittsburgh mo
nopolists say: "Give us so much tariff
on our manufactures and we will give
you the electoral vote of Pennsylvania,
and put enougli money in the campaign
fund to enable you to buy the doubtful
votes in the close states." This is the
way the Dorsey money was raised in
1880.
HIVE VS A. REST.
"The Democrats, when in power sel
dom or never appoint a Republican to
an office of public trust. 1 here is no
law compelling them to do so, and it. is
against their political principles to see
a Republican in otlice when the same
can be filled by a Democrat. "To the
victors belong the spoils," is then
motto. The Republicans, however, are
never happv unless they can show to
the world that they are superior to all
such party predjudice. They take
great delight in ignoring those whose
votes and influence heloed them to of
fice, and straightway proceed to hunt
up a Democrat that they may appoint
him to something or other. ' Our Re
publican county commissioners have un
doubtedly, the right to appoint a
Democrat to superintend Or oversee
the construction of the Winchester
bridge, or poriions thereof, if they want
to. There is no law to tbe contrary.
But just why a Democrat should be
appointed is not apparent, unless it is
simply because he is a Democrat. We
do not know just what qualifica
tions are necessary to fill this position
as we have not investigated the subject;
but w.uld naturally conclude that a
mechanic of some kind might possibly
fill the bill. Mr. Carlon does not, we
believe, claim to be a mechanic, and
we do not know of any other peculiar
fitness he may have for this position
that is not possessed by a score or more
of Republicans that might have been
selected. We have no fault to find
with Mr. Carlon, but on the contrary,
if there "is any thing in it;" congratu
late him on securing the job. It is
our privilege, however, to '"kick" at the
action of the Board. They were not
elected to appoint Democrats to office
unless they have good sufficient reasons
for so doing. Perhaps they have such
reasons, but Democrats would never
find a reason to appoint a Republican."
lhe above from our esteemed con
temporary evinces a case of growling
hysteria. The fact is the gentleman
now astride the editorial tripod of tbe
Plaindealer has been continually dur
ing the last eight or ten months throw
ing out hints ot mismanagement of
county affaire, etc., until we should
suppose something in the nature of
facts ought to materialize by this time.
But nothing of the kind appears. The
Democratic county board was insinua
ted at, and the present Republican
board is mercilessly handled, and just
what would please the upstreet editor
is hard to tell. The last Republican
county convention and the present
county board have perhaps overlooked
the ability of the gentleman in question
Mr. Benjamin says in closing; "but
Democrats would never find a reason
to appoint a Republican."
Mr. Winston was appointed Supt. of
the Winston bridge last year by a Dem
ocratic board, and Mr. D. C. McClal
len's superintendency of the Roseburg
bridge was endorsed by a Democratic
board and he continued to the end
of the contract. Moreover, Democratic
officials have given Republicans sever
al little employments and the earth did
not stop revolving therefore. Mr. B
himself has been the recipient of some
little Democratic patronage that we
know of, neither did we "kick," so, we
have received Repnblican patronage
for which we have always been grate
ful. A - little smack of ingratitude
seems to pervade the above quoted
article concerning Mr. Carlon
SUPPOSE HE II Att.
" Suppose Cleveland had made use of
the following in his message:
"Many duties now collected, and
which give b.it an insignificant etui 11
for the cost of collection miglrl be re
mitted to the direct advantage of con
sumers at home. I would mention
those articles which enter into manu
facturers of all sorts. All duty paid
upon such articles goes directly to the
cost of the article when manufactured
here and is paid by the consumer.
These duties not only come from the
consumers at home, but act as a pro
tection to foreign manufacturers of the
same completed1 articles iu our own and
distant markets,
Would not every Republican in the
land have charged him with being a
free trader! Most certainly, for the
"language is stronger than anything to
be found in his message, but the above
quotation is from President Grant's
seventh annual message and not a Re
publican in the land was so foolish as
to call him a free trader.
What man ever got rich by having
hi hard earnings taken out of his
pocket ly taxation And io say that
a country can bs made rich by heavily
taxing its jwople is an absurdity that
nobody but a high protectionist xcould
dare to assert. Allen G. Thurman.
The Woolly Horse did not win in
1856, and the Woolly Sheep will not
win in 1888. Wool was played out
as apolitical issue in 1876, when the
couutry elected Samuel J. Tilden to
the Presidency.
WAT PBOTECTIQS TAKES FROM
THE PEOPLE.
The national issue between the tao
great political parties in the coming
presidential contest is a high protective
tariff advocated by Republicans for the
benefit of corporations under the pre
text of protecting the laborer, but be
ing careful that he don't get any more
than a living.
The Democratic policy is to take no
more money from the masses of the
people than will be required to meet the
actual expenses of the government.
The Republicans want cheap whisky
and tobacco. The Democrats want
cheap clothing and blankets. In the
last year 115,000,000 have accumu
lated in the treasury as excessive tax
over and above the requirements of the
government, and it is carefully estima
ted that the manufacturers iu the Uni
ted States get $5 for every dollar the
government gets. The chronic Repub
lican who is held in line by the party
lash, or because he is too indolent to
read and meditate upon this subjuct,
and from an opinion of his own; will
dispute this statement at once so we
will reason a little, many are under the
impression that a tariff of 60 per cent
enhances the cost of the article taxed
only 60 per cent, but, such is not the
case, the merchant who did business in
that way would soon come to grief.
For instance there is a duty of CO
per rent on some classes of woolen
goods. Suppose an importer iuvests
one hundred dollars in such goods in
England when they are landed at tbe
custom house in New York, ne pays
the 60 per cent duty, he then has one
hundred and sixty dollars invested,
and when he sells he must make the
same per cent profit on the sixty dol
lars which he paid as duty as upon the
hundred dollars invested in the goods,
hence if his profits be twenty per cent
(which is very moderace,) he will sell
the goods for, one hundred and ninety
two dollars, where without the dutv,
it would be only one hundred and
twenty dollars, toe sixty per cent duty
lias grown to be seventy-two per cent,
the hrst time the goods have changed
hands, and this per cent (extortionate
as iJE seems) will be increased if the
goods pass through more than one
merchants hands between the importer
and the consumer.
But our home manufacturer who
has so long been protected by the gov
ernment at the expense of the people,
and who, (with his improved machinery
and skilled labor) statistics show can
manufacture goods as cheap as in
England does not have this sixty per
cent duty; but he takes advantage of
the duty on imports and adds sixty
per cent to the cost prue, but it is a
ficticious value there is no money in
vested; so he does not have to make
the twenty per cent duty on that sixty
dollars which the importer has to, con
sequently he ?an increase the price of
his goods just the amount of the pro
tection on that class and still undersell
the importer, this is precisely what
the manufacturers are doinp. end it is
because the money is coming their
way, that they want to contiiiiieiTiK
unjust system of taxation.
As before stated this surplus reve
nue (not all) has amounted to $115,
000,000 and as the most carefully pre
pared statistics indicate that the roun
ufacturer leceives five dollars to every
one the governments gets, it makes the
amount the manufacturers have re
ceived in thhjyear $575,000,000
addtothisthe 5115,000,000 which has
gone into the treasury as a surplus, draw,
ing no interest, doing no one any good,
and we have a grand total $690,000,
000 unjustly extorted from the people.
Now let us see if we can get this sura
in a shape that we can comprehend the
prodigious amount. The capacity of
an ordinary freight car is ten tons and
is thirty-two feet long, if this sum was
represented in silver dollars let us see
how many train loads of silver we
wonld have of thirty cars to the train,
and ten tons to the car. A silver
dollar weighs one ounce or sixteen dol
lars to the pound, hence in ten tons or
an ordinary carload there would be
320,000, now in $690,000,000 there
would be as many carloads ns 8320,000
(amount in one carload) is contained
in that sum or 2156 carloads. Divide
tuem up into trainioaus ot cars-f
each and we have 71 trains. Just
think of it, 71 trains of cars and thirty
cars in each train, and ten tons of sil
ver dollars in each car. Let us see
how many miles they would reach if
strung out one tram behind the other
on a straight track, allowing thirty-two
feet for each car and fifty for each en
gine and tender.
We find by a mathematical cIcula
tion that they would reach a distance
of twelve miles. To load this amount
on wagons of one ton each, each wagon
to le drawri by two horses it would re
quire 21,560 wagons, 43,120 horses,
and strung out on a road as close as
one team could wnlk behind another
they would reach over one hundred
1 miles. Is it anv wond;r that after
more than twenty year of this unjust
taxation that we find the money consol
idated in the hands of a few, put there
at the expense of the many?
Is it surprising that wp have strikes?
Industrious farmers ate ion sur
prised that your productive farms are
mortgaged despite your economy and
self denial?
'Is it strange that the creat corpora
tions have money to loan upon farmwl
All the great mass of consolidated
wealth sets as a great central magnet
and attracts more to it every year as it
earns not less than tn per cent of
itself eacli year, thus at the end of ten
years the amount is doubled and the
grip of the monopolist ujon the people
u doubled with it and nearly thirty
years of protection, the strain ia be
coming too strong to be borne and fru
gal industrious farmers from the Atlan
tic to the Pacific are beginning to
break: the mortwaz is taking their
homes. In I860 a mortgaged farm
was rarely heard of, now a farm not
mortgagor! ia rarely heard of. Many
temperate industrial.- men have died
upon rented farms, since 1880 that
ownetl good farms ia 1860. Now if
Harrison is elected with his tariff policy
and liberal Chinese views, the rich
will continue to grow richer and the
poorer until a climax ii reached Who
can tell hat will then be the result!
People think for ourselves and let
your ballot be the result of your own
careful considerations.

TUZ CKEGOXIAN GETS MAD.
The following from the Oregonian
L shows a good deal of the old Adam
that sua remains in an oi us.
An Oregon democratic paper says:
"la 1820, after an existence of thirty-
twe years, tho federal partv went to
pieces: in 1856, the whig party, having
existed thirty-two years, died also, and
the republican party was formed by
the free-soil democrats, whigs, abolition
ists and know-nothirgs. The republi
can party has reached the age of thuty-
two vears and it shows signs of
dissolution; but the democratic party,
though a centuiy old, is still hearty
and full of tight."
Hell never changes. It remains the
same through the ages. Though often
defeated, it Ix as s that it is all (ho time I
"hearty and full of tight.' And it
frequently gains temporary victories
that give it much encouragement.
But the tutthod of attack on hell
is continually changing. It ia not
the same during anv considerable length
of time. Yet the attack never ceases,
and on the whole, from age to age,
hall gets the worst of the tight. The
b.st comfort and o:ibolatiou it obtains
appears to be (lmied from its boast
that it is the only really permanent
thing in the universe.
WHf
Just why the democrats cannot carry
Oregon next November does not appear.
Notwithstanding the great majority
against ns last J une, there is great rea
son to believe that the majority will be
reduced, and the possibility of carrying
the state is not absolutely improbable.
The inconsistencies ot our republican
friends upan the tariff question, and
their unsound positions upon that issue,
have been, and are being exposed every
day. The voting populace now see
this ignis-fatuus in its true light. The
Chinese question is another great fac
tor against the republicans in Oregon.
The democrats are going, as they should,
to make a fight to the teeth for Oregon,
and while the odds seem to be against
us, truth and common sense may yet
repay the effort. So let us move to the
front at once.
TOE SPEAKERSHIP.
We nominate Hon. James Blendell
of Douglas county for the speakership
of the next House of Oregon Repicsen-
tativea. First, He is competent. 2nd.
That distinguished honor has never
been accorded to Southern Oregon since
the incumbency of Hon. John C. Drain
of 187 4. Ad, tie is honest and un
swerving, a politician, but not a par
isan, independent, yet not factious.
We nominate him because it is our
privilige to do so, a' .yet not" strictly
any of oar busfTTsi However, "4
suggestion yon will fmd is a good one
It is to be hoped, on every account,
that the proposed joint tariff debate
between Speaker Carlisle and Mr.
Blainb can be arranged. That would
be indeed "a campaign of intellect," a
"canvass of education and argument."
Mr. Blaixe could not afford to accept
a challenge from every ambitious de
bater. He could hardly afford to de
cline one from a statesman of Speaker
Carlisle's ability and rank. N. T.
World.
While the republican party in the
east is in a delirious state of wild ness over
James G. Blaine, what must be the feel
ings of Mr. Harrison who is the stand
ard bearer of their party in the present
campaign? Mr. Harrison is justly en
titled to be the central figure of his
party at this tune, by virtue cf his po
sition as their nominee, and it i3 an in
justice to him for his party to exalt Mr.
Blaine as it is now doing. Ex.
The preacher's boys are to the front
in the campaign. Cleveland is a son
of a Presbyterian preacher, Thurman
of a Methodist preacher, Mcrton of a
Congregational preacher, Harrison a
son-in-law of a Presbyterian pieacher,
and Senator Quay, the chairman of the
national republican committee, and
Calvin S. Brice, chairman of the dem
ocratic national .committee, are both
sons of Presbyterian preachers,
It was brought
out in the House
yesterday that when Levi P. Morton
was a member of Congress he voted
against a resolution directing the en
forcement of the eight hour law. Gen
eral Harrison will be relieved to leurn
this. So far he haf had to do all apol
ogizing to tho workingmen for whom
he has conceived so strong an affection
since his nomination.
ft is said that the tariff" enables the
manufacturers to pay high wages to
incir mooring men. um you ever
know a' manufacturer that paid high-
er wages to his hands because of an
increase of the tarijfl If you did so,
yoaluieemet with something I have
never seen. Allen G. Thurman.
A Republican paper says "Mr,
Blaine does not find his speeches in
the Encyclopedia." True enough.
The Encyclopedia deals with facts;
Mr. Blaine deals exclusive with fiction.
Mb. Blaixe can find a moral side to
the whisky question but is blind to the
ethical problem presented by Trusts.
This is not only poor politics but one
sided statesmanship.
The pauper labor racket wont work
this time, the workingmen have learned
by a sad experience that a 47 per cent
tariff and pauper labor go together.
