PROTECTION NOT PROHIBITION.
There may le protection which
amounts to prohibition, or there may
be absolute free-trade. Neither ex
treme is followed by any country to
day, or perhaps ever will. Great
Britain is the nearest free-trade of any
nation, and yet she derives considera
ble revenue from a tariff on i-iiports.
The American policy is in favor of
protection, and yet there are many
articles on the ' free list. It requires
wisdom and a nice discrimination "to
frame a tariff bill, and we doubt if
either party could form one that
would be satisfactory to the two polit
ical naxtiea in this country. The Mills
bill of the last session was particularly
objectionable, because it placed pro
ductions in the north such as wool,
iron, etc., industries winch wen
susceptible of great development,
on the free list, and re
tained nearly the' full duty on sugar,
which Was produced only in two or
three southern states, and then not in
sufficient quantity to supply the Iocs
demand. There is not much doubt
that beet sugar coald be manufactured
in the United States very advantage
ously, and, if government aid were ex
tended to our farmers, in a little while
enough sugar could be produced for
home consumption. For this end we
'urn in favor of niacins sugar on the
free list, and giving farmers a bounty
to engage in growing beets and manu
factoring the article. To this our
esteemed contemporary, the Albany
Democrat objects, and says:
The Mountaineer would have con
gress grant a bonus .to' those who will
engage in raising beet sugar. It thinks
this would not be paternal govern'
ment. On the contrary it would be
diflicult to conceive of a more obnox
ions form of paternal government. It
would lie saying to one class of people
that the government would tax an
other class to raise bounty money to
pay to the former clans to make it
- successful in business. Upon the very
face of it the proposition is an out
rageous one, and we cannot under
stand how an intelligent man, imbued
with the spirit of fair dealing between
freemen, could for'a moment entertain
it. .
If our intelligent brother thinks
this is an outrageous proposition, with
the same purity of reasoning ho must
denounce the Mills bill a wholesale
robbery, which aimed to tax every
man in the country who used sugar for
the benefit of Mississippi and Loui
siana planters, and opened wide every
door to the cheap wool of Australia
and South America. The revenue of
the government comes from imports
and internal revenue, and the bonus
eiven to beet-raisers would be no
greater imposition on the people than
the money now spent on rivers and
harbors, and eventually it would be a
principle of great economy in cheapen
in? tho pi Ice of the product, stopping
the outflow of money and encouraging
home industry. In speaking of jute,
the Democrat says:
The Mountaineer well knows that
jute is not, and can not, be raised in
this country and yet, it has neyer
raisea its voice against tnis tax on me
i'nnRiimpr. thft farmpr. It rpnrpRPi.t- I
ativea in tonm-ess voted against taking
r r I
this tax from jute and it approved
their course. When its words might
have had some weight in promoting
r :n: -. r i I
w.Lhont ininrv to anv one. it remained
silent. This is merely a scheme to
(lodge the issue, when it is up. and
meet it face to face when it is not be
ing considered.
V e are not in the least doubt that
jute cannot be. raised in this country
and do not believe that our farmers
will be dependent on the jute raised
in foreign countries for many years. I
If attention can bo turned to a home
product by taxing the imported article,
it is the province of government,
which exists for the people, to do so.

it is simply patriotic encouragement
to home industry, and practical means I
used to keep as much money in the
country as possible.
We believe next year will witness
greater progress in The Dalles than
any former one. The right spirit is
coming to the surface, and people who
have hitherto been apathetic regard
ing enterprise are becoming awakened
io our pos3iouii:ej as a gwai commer
cial point. The fact is patent to every
observer that this city possesses natur
al resources unexcelled by any place
in the northwest, and rarely equalled.

The holiday edition of the Idaho

we extend the compliments of the

Coming so soon after the Christmas
festival no one who believes in the
amelioration of the race can have any
other than the most benevolent feel
ings toward his fellow being. The old
year has died, and the new year has
leen ushered into being. May it not
only be fair with anticipation, but
complete in realization. The past

some, may it be brighter and happier

Recognition of the republic in Bra
zil, says Bradstreets, may safely and
without offense be postponed for a lit
tle while. A resolution was intro
duced in the senate this week con
gratulating the people of Biazil on
their asHumption of the powers" and
duties of self-government as expressed
in their recent adoption of a repub
lican form of government, recognizing
the republican government as a lawful
government, declaring the republic en
titled to all the rights of a sovereign
power under the laws of nations and
to the benefit of all rights and advan
tages under treaties concluded lieiween
the Uuited States and the empire of
Brazil, and requiring the people and
government of the United States to
recognize the flag of the United States
of Brazil as the flag of a free, sover
eign and independent state- This
thorough-going resolution was wisely
laid over by the senate upon objection
to its consideration at the time. The
country will without doubt be glad to
welcome Brazil into the sisterhood of
republics, but the recognition should
be delayed until it has become appar
ent that the ne government rests on
a secure foundation.
The meeting of the board of trade
last evening evinces the fact that our
citizens are awakening to a realization
of the advantages of The Dalles. We
are glad to note this, as the Tikes
Mountaineer has for years past at
tempted to arouse a spirit of public
enterprise in this city, and it is a mat
ter of sincere gratification to see our
tffbrts successful. For a long time
I his paper has pointed out the oppor
tunities of this place as a commercial
and manufacturing point, and we are
hopeful now that there are signs of
life in the board of trade that some
thing will be done to develope our
unsurpassed natural resources. Nc
that the spirit of enterprise is active,
let there be harmony among our bus
iness men, and no petty jealousies
should render nugatory honest efforts
to impel our growth and develope-
oient.

The butcher of the eight negroes
in Barnwell, South Carolina, on Dec.
28th, emphasizes the fact that lawless
ness is still rampant in the south. . It
could not be expected that the people
in the southern states would take
kindly to the altered condition of af
fairs after the war Lad changed the
political condition of residents; but
there is no excuse for lynching where
court are controlled ly the dominant
race. These eight colored men could
have had j ustice meted out to them with
out the interference of a mob. They
could not have bribed jurors for their
acquittal, and this open-handed man
ner, of dealing with them, however
guilty they may have been of the
crime charged, is very deplorable. We
have no doubt the actions of this
mob will meet wit.h the severest
condemnation of the best citizens
citizens of that and neighboring states;
but the fact itself will be a sad com
mentary on the enforcement of law,
and the unjust manner in which col
ored men are treated. The amead
ments granting equal political rights
to all races have been adopted, and
these Bhould be enforced in every in
stance. It is time that all classes in
the south should learn that all races
black or white are rqual before the
law and have equal privileges. As soon
as this is prastically carried eut there
will be harmony in the whole country,
ani there will be no quarreling or
antagonism letween one section and
another.
The yeer just closed has been one of
prosperity for The Da'les, notwith
standing the great disadvantages under
which we have labored. At the be
ginning of the season everything
promised a fruitful harvest; but the
east winds came and blasted the crops,
and the yield was not nearly an aver
age. Our farmers lost heavily, and
there were no bright or encouraging
Drospects. Notwithstanding these
a
drawbacks The Dalles has improved
more than any other year in her. his
tory, and the facilities and rxpecta
tions of trade are greater than ever
before. Large and substantial brick
blocks have been erected and a
number of substantial residences in
the suburbs. The amount expended
this year for buildings is a splendid
showing of our growth and the enter
prise of our worthy citizens Mr. Max
Vogt and Mr. I. C. Nickelsen. We
hope next year will be more prosper
ous, as the indications now are very
encouraging for good crops, and plans
are now beicg drafted for several
brick buildings to be erected in the
spring. The Dalles has all the ele
ments of strength and growth, and
however moss-backistu and lack of
enterprise may act as a drawback the
city will go l ight along in tho path
of progress and advancement.
The Fan-American congress,now in
session in Washington City, has for
ita object the unification of interests of
the different nations on the western

most amicable rt rations may result
therefrom. The different republics in
this hemisphere should be a unit for
their interests, a? they know the nion-
archies of Europe bear them no good
will. Since Brazil has become a re-

EDITORIAL NOTES.
"Salem to the sea" is the watchword
at the capital. Why not change it to
"The Dalles to the sea," and see
whether a local application of the
phrase could not be made.
The two Dakotns came into the
union with a large number of citizen",
but little wealth. Washington has
not nearly the number of population ;
but is in a much better condition
financially. liecause a country is
populous does not indicate that it is
also rich in natural and developed
resources.
The New Year's Oregonian is a
mammoth paper of tuirty-two page.",
descriptive of all portions of the north

passes in every particular any in the
northwest. The Oregoniau leads, but
never follows.

is, perhaps, the best plan available.
To throw the islands open to all

TWKSTY-BIX BOYS DEAD.
London, Jan. 1. The boys' section ot
paupers' school in tbe district of For-
Children Cry for
t-st Gale, in connection with the White
chapel and Poplar unions, took fire last
night while the iuniatts were asleep, ami
was burned with terrible results,
Twenty-Ms boys iu the upper stories
were suffocated. Fifty-eight were safely
taken from the burning building, amid
terrible excitement. Two matrons es
caped by sliding down the water pipes.
Several boys escaped in the same way.
The supennteudeDt repeatedly rushed
through the flames and brought out a
number of inmates.
There were COO persons in the institu
tion. The bodies of those suffocated
weie carried to the main hull of the
buildin.', which was still profusely deco
rated with Christinas greens. The tire
was caused by au overheated stove. The
lemale department, in which were SSO
girK was not touched. The boys re
tired last evening in the highest spirits,
havinjr been promised presents and a
New Year's fete to-tlny. The scenes in
the main hall, where the bodies of the
dead boys lie, are harrowing. Relatives
and school felluus of those who perished
are loud in lamentations.
Further reports of the fire show that it
originated in the clothmg room beneath
the bojs' doimitor, . Smoke and flames
issuing from a stove flue alarmed those
sleeping on the top floor, and they es
caped. Fire engines were promptly on
the spot. The employes of the adjacent
railway station rushed to the scene and
rendered valuable assistance. The bodies
of two boys were badly burned, but it is
believed they were suffocated before
burned. The ages of the dead range
from 7 to 13.
TUNNEL UNDER ENGLISII CIIANNEI..

ginning of the tunnel was secured before
the government interfered, aud Sir Ed

Uiadstonians come back to office he will
be allowed to do what he likes under the
channel
Gladstone is on his side, and that is
more than half the battle. It will never

been put into the big hole near Dover,

he can get before he reaches the French

The Appetite
Hay bo increased, the Digestive prgana
strengthened, and the bowels regulated,
by taking Ayer'a Pill3. These Pills are
purely vegetable in their composition.
They contain neither calomel nor any
other dangerous drug, and may be taken
with perfect safety by persons of all ages.
I was a great sufferer from Dyspepsia
and Constipation. I had no appetite,
and was constantly afflicted with Head
ache and Dizziness. I consulted our
family doctor, who prescribed for me, at
various times, without affording more
than temporary relief. I finally com
menced taking Ayer's Pills. In a short
time my digestion and appetite
IMPROVED
my bowels were regulated, and, by the
time I finished two boxes of these Pills
my tendency to headaches hnd disap
peared, and I became strong and well.
Darius JI. Logan, Wilmington, DeL
I wa3 troubled, for over a year, with
' Loss of Appetite, anil General Debility.
I commenced taking Ayer's Pills, and,
before finishing half a box of this medi
cine, my appetite and strength were re
stored. C. O. Clark, Danbury, Conn.
Ayer's Pills are the best medicine
known to me for rogulatin? the bowels,
nnd for all diseases caused by a d isordered
Ktouiach and Liver. I suifered for over
three years with Headache, Indigestion,
and Constipation. I had uoappeiite, and
was weak and nervous most of the time.
BY USING
three boxes of Ayer's Pills, and at the
same time dieting myself, I was com
pletely cured. Jly digestive organs are
now in good order, and I am in perfect
health. P. Lockwood, Topeka, Kaua.
Ayer's Pills have benefited me wonder
fully. For months I suffered from Indi
gestion and Headache, was restless at
night, and had a bad taste in my mouth
every morning. After taking one box
of Ayer's Pills, all these troubles dis
appeared, my food digested well, and
my sleep was refreshing. Henry C.
liemmenway, Rockport, jilass.
I was cured of the Piles by the use of
Ayer's Pills. They not only relieved mo
of that painful disorder, but give me in
creased vigor, and restored my health.
