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.

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. The Review
years ago saw this folly, and now all
the papers of vim and real enterprise
are "imitating" us. That is right,
"covet the best gifts." Success to the
Medford Mail.
