Low Uatcs-IIigli Tariff That Combination Beat Us Out of Our Trade With British Columbia- HE F.XDOli E THIS VIE If. v The following is a summary of the proceedings ot the Senatorial committee at Portland as reported by the Oregon iant and as The Review has precisely argued, the lower the tariff for the Facifio cqast, the better for the people. Our Governor gives no uncertain sound in his letter, and he is eminently cor rect upon this grat subject of tariff reduction. The United States Senators compos ing the special committee on "Our re lations with Canada" were rather slow getting down to work yesterday morn ing. The session was announced to begin at ten o'clock but it was 11:30 before the committee reached the Board Trada room and the taking of testi mony was begun. The witnesses were sworn and their statements were taken verbatim by a stenographer. Senator Hoar presided and conducted the ex amination. Senator Hale asked a great many questions about the fishing indus try and Sei.ator Pngh took considera ble interest in the testimony concern ing wool. Senator Allison asked only a few questions and left before the afternoon session . concluded. Senator Dolph took a prominent part in the proceedings. THE GOVERNOR'S LETTER. "I will, However, in deference to yonr request, state to yon what is my candid opinion, no matter what the character of statistics requested by you may be, that the interests of the whole people of this country will be be3t sub Served by the removal of all burden some trade restrictions upon lumber ts j well as upon all other articles ot com j merce required by the necessity of the j leople. I am myself engaged in the j lumber business in this city. Thecem pany I represent considers itself suifi cienlty able to manage its business and prosecute a livelihood without the in tervening 'support of the goyertmit-nt by tariff restrictions upon foreign lum ber. To confess that it was not so able would be to confess its inferiority to British manufacturing estab'islmients, which confession would not only be pusillanimous but would also bo most untrue. As you are aware, Senator, I am in favor of the removal of all re strictions so far as possible upon the trade of our people. To that end I would greatly reduce Ihe national rev enue procure! from imports, which method of taxation bears' with such se verity upon the industries of the coun try aud tho necessities of life retitircti by the laboring classes, and would sup ply tho deficiency occasioned by such reduction by the imposition of an in come tax by which the wealth of the country wjuld lo compelled to help bear the burden of taxation for the support of the goyernmcnt. Staver and Walker said: "Were the Canadian duty removed or lowered, they would probably establish a branch house in Victoria, and do a business of $50,000 to $"5,000 a year." General Willian Kaffus said that "low rates on the Canadian Pacific and high tariff drove American furniture from the field." Charles H. Dood, a hardware dealer, told of the gradual falling off in Port land's hardware trade with British Columbia since I860, caused by the in crease of duty, so that now the only things we can sell the Britishers ave safes, mowers, axos and common goods. He said the Portland merchants could beat either the high tariff or the cherp railroad rates, but not both combined. T. F. Osborn and others spoke in the same strain. OREGON AND PROTECTION. President Donald Macleay, of the Board of Trade, testified that the com bination of cheap railroad rate? on tho Canadian Pacific and the duty had de stroyed the grocery trade with British Columbia. Oregon and Washington, he thought, were the natural food sup plies of B itish Columbia. "What advantage does Oregon gain from the p'otfctive tariff system?' asked Senator lioir. "Not linn!;. But then Orejfon i only a small part of the United Stute V' "Yes, e; I understand," siid Sena tor Hoar with a smile, "yet last year Oregon informal the country with some emphasis that hhn was in favor of pro tection." "My reference to protection was only in connection with Oregon's dealings with British Columbia. I think under a reciprocity treaty we could hold our own in British Columbia as against a subsidized railroad. Gov. Pennoer told me that his lumber would be able to compete with British Columbia lum ber with the American duty off." Hon. John Minto, W. A. Wilcox and B. Goldsmith deeply feel that some thing must be done to relieve the fall ing off of Portland business on account of low rates and high tariff. R. Jacobs, of the Oregon City Wool en Mills, made Senators Hoar and Alli son open their eyes when he said his firm sells some of their product in Bos- j miracles. Oregonian, ton and Iowa. He said the existing state of affairs in Biisish Columbia had barred them out of that country and destroyed a trade of about 815,000 a year. Ife did not blame the railroad j so much as the high duty for this state of affairs. From the above one can see at a glance that the adoption of the Demo cratic doctrine of a reduction of the tariff i3 our only hope for an increased business on the Pacific slope with the World at large. It is a dangerous un dertaking to put a Chinese wall around our great country in the form of a pro tective tariff. However, the near fu ture will vindicate our views, and we can afford to wait just a little while. The medical law passed at the recent session of the Montana legislature, is leing vigorously enforced in the cities of the territory. Traveling specialists are leaving in disgust, and "regulars' are correspond itgly happy. While such a law puta an effectual quietus upon qu:Rks of i he "Geismardo" school and keens jifioj hj whose minds are weakened by di-vase from running af ter "healers" and more mischievous pretender, it yet contains some feat u e s that are arbitrary and distasteful, lite privilege of choosing the man who shall minister to the booily ails in one equally prized with tlmt of choosing the spiritual adviser, and abridgement of the piivil-"ge ly laws is stoutly pro tested against by many, in the name of personal liberty. loosing sight of the primary object of such a Jaw, the protection of the weak and suffering, who are ready to grasp at anything, however absurd, that holds out a promise of such relief, the enemies of regular physicians and their methods characterize such a law as "class legis lation" and cry out against it as des potic. The public generally is how ever ready , to endorse a law that makes it impossible for the more mis chievous aud ignorant quacks to add to the great sum of human' suffering, even if it bears with some severity up on the harmV;s class who are known as "healers," "Christian scientists," etc., who efchew medicine and essay THE fRESlDXl'S HHOTI1ER.. Children Cry for It has remained for President Har rison to make himself responsible for tejnol'pfonouiiced aet if nepotism in the history of the government. Gen. Grant's , record in jthis respect was notable, but he never went so far as to give an own brother an official commission. The appointment of Major Harrison to a Federal Marahalahtp is a particu lat'.y bold defiance ot public opinion, from the fact that the popular disap proval of acts of that description has been so clearly expressed of late years. It comes directly upon the heels of the Centennial celebration of the inaugur ation of Washington, who condemned family appointments in ringing words which, just repeated, are fresh in the ears of the people. It matters not that the man was the supjKjsed choice of the Republicans of Tennessee, or that he may be well fitted for the posi tion the president has taken direct ground endorsing the principle which is generally and justly repudiated. II is action perhaps is a manifesta tion of the independence of character which, according to retort, he has felt himself called upon to vind:c tt It would appear that he has shown him self nit ti lo afraid t di ;tn iliin" in the appointing linw that suits him. j That he has placed numerous other men i:i office ou account of previous personal relations is m itself a very prominent fact, but his nomination, of his brother enii h i.-iz-s his tendency t a j error in this direction in a most! marked Way. Fortunately, it is not likely that he will break the for o of ths Washing tonian and Je0t: sopiaa tradition. The current of opinion is irresistibly against him and vj has weakened him self seriously in h popular esteem. X. Y. WorUl. The Medford Mail announces in its last issue is as follows: "This is the last issue of ready print" So the Mail has discarded its patent, even if it does cost more, it shows signs of en terprise that cannot be gainsaid. One may blow their brains out on a "patent outside" concern whooping her up, but it wont go. The old nightmare is there just the same.
