PROGRESS AND PROTECTION.
Commenting on an article in vor
of protection . published in this paper,
in which we said "the corner-stone of
the doctrine is, keep all the money
, possible at home," the East Oregonian
'says: .
! Carried out to the letter, this policy
. - would compel every citizen to spend
every moment of his life in aiid exist
upon the products ot bis own town and
vicinity. Only a jackass does this, and
. then only when bis autocratic master
compels bim to. Such a system narrows
and brutalizes men and makes them self
ish animals, with desires slightly above
those of a dog and little better than a
horse. Honey should only be spent at
borne when it can be spent more advan
tageously, and this is the way sensible
men spend it even at the present time.
The "borne industry" howl has lest its
substance. Men of common sense have
i discovered that it had its birth in a nar
row, selfisb, hypocritical spirit. - Freedom
is Qod's law, and the closer man can
carry it out the greater he will be, the
wider his environment, the broader bis
spirit, the more lasting bis works, and
'.' the nobler his intelligence.
Such a policy does not inculcate the
N idea that "every citizen should spend
every moment of his life in and exist
upon the products cf his own town and
' vicinity," but , only in as far as it would
' stimulate enterprise and prosperity in
'his home, and this the East Oregonian
has advocated times without number
A regarding Pendleton. Even the most
technical hair-splitting '. metaphysics
gives no such meaning to the principles
acy in the nation, always "crooked the
pregnant hinges of the knee" to south
ern slaveocracy. The Dred Scott de
cision by the supreme court was
followed by the passage of the disgrace
ful Fugitive slave law, and these cul
minated in an attempt by the Democ
racyor at least its southern follow
ers, wnicn, as lion, Alexander a.
Stephens in his speech before the
Georgia secession convention said, had
received everything they asked for
seventy-five years in the history of the
country- in inaugurating a southern
confederacy, the corner-stone of which,
as expressed by Robert Tombs of
Sooth Carolina, would be human
slavery. Of course, these facts may
be hooted down as moss-covered,
but they are true as sunlight, and ex
plain why the Democratic party
has always - been in favor of
free-trade. The south desired to
reach the markets of the world
with her cotton and other products,
and had no interest in the prosperity
of the north and New England states,
where slave-labor was not tolorated
and where wage earners were equal
socially and politically with other citi
zens. The party has followed this pol
icy since its inception, and while, in
name and theory, it has appeared fav
orable to the interests of the laboring
poor, in practice it has been controlled
bv the most selfish politicians who
j
ever corrupted the institutions of this I resolution
or any other country; and those who I eminently
are constantly . preaching it as the
party of the people are either
visionaries or advocating an improb
able state of affairs to secure personal
ends. f
MICHIGAN REPUBLICANS.
The singularly terse and vigorous
declaration of the Republican con
vention in the state of Michigan is,
"We will do all in our power to up
hold and sustain the victories, already
won for the grand triple policy of
protection, reciprocity, and honest
money."
That is platform enough for any
convention, says the Chicago Inter
Ocean, so far as a declaration of com
mercial policy is concerned. Protection,
reciprocity, and honest money will en
large our home market, give us as
large a foreign market as we have
need of, and will provide us with a re
liable and sufficient circulating me
dium.
The personal parts of the platform
are complimentary to the "forceful and
fearless" foreign policy of President
Harrison, to the "sagacious and loyal
endeavors of that patriot and states
man, James G. Blaine, in the promul
gation of true and progressive Amerl
icaa principles," and to "the sterling
worth of our distinguished fellow citi-

country, and salmon were -.shipped

ceived in return was sent away for
brooms, tubs, canned fruits, pickles,
as eminently just, and as
politic. The administra
tion of President Harrison, especially
in its foreign relations, has been most
praiseworthy. In the language of the
platform it has been "dignified, force
ful and fearless." The hearty eulogy
of Secretary Blaine is the more grace
ful in that he is not a candidate for
further honors at the hands of the
people. As to General Alger, who is
a presidential candidate, the Republi
cans ot nis state acted wisely in de
claring, after a warm assertion of his
meritorious claims to consideration,
"We can safely leave to the collective
judgment of the representatives of the
party at Minneapolis, in June next,
the selection of a leader who will head
the triumphant march of our hosts."
It will be well if many other states
express their confidence in the wisdom
of the "representatives of the party at
Minneapolis' . in like manner. If
President Harrison be renominated
the act of the convention will be ap
proved ' by all good Republicans; if
General Alger be chosen by the con
vention he will be elected by the
people.

factory or other industry which would
retain the constant outlet of coin
for articles of daily consumption.
There is no denying the fact The
Dalles is cursed by "mossbacks" worse
than any town in the northwest. Sit
uated at the head of navigation on the
Columbia, this city does not appear to
realize the advantages which it pos
sesses. The Dalles should be
the manufacturing center of the
Inland Empire, being in close prox
imity to tbe natural water power
of the Columbia river, handling
more raw material than any other
town on the continent, and having di
rect water communication with the
markets of the world. There may be
an open river to the ocean, a fleet of
boats to carry our produce to foreign
countries, but until we take adyantage
of our favorable opportunities this
city will not grow or prosper. ' Facts
must be stated in plain language, and
no equivocations used. The )alles
possesses some rare advantages as a
shipping and commercial- point, and
tbe only drawback is the lack of en
terprise with citizens.
Of late years the Democratic party
has ascertained tbe fact that Abraham
Lincoln was a patriot and an Ameri
can citizen of whom ail should be
proud. During his life- time they
maligned him in every conceivable
manner called him tyrant, buffoon,
eta Now that he is dead and the
people look to him as the greatest
American in the history of the coun
try, Democracy must "crook the preg
nant hinges of the knee" to maintain
its status. Let it be understood fully.
Abraham Lincoln was a Republican
in the fullest sense of the word
opposed the doctrine of state rights,
human slavery, the Fugitive slave
law, and the southern confederacy,
It was our Lincoln who said that this
country could not exist half free and
half slave, and was the executive who
issued the emancipation proclamation
and declared all negroes in the United
States free. He was a typical Re
publican, and was as far removed from
Jefferson Davis, James Buchannn and
southern Democracy as night is front
day. This may be the "bloody shirt,'
but the memory of Abraham Lincoln,
the great Republican, whom Dem
crats cursed and vilified while alive,'
and who was assassinated by a Demo
crat, is sacred with every patriot who
upholds the justice of the war for the
union, the emancipation proclamation
and the reconstruction of the southern
states. During his. life Republicans
upheld his policy by shedding their
blood on southern battle-fields, while
Democrats like Yallandigham and
Voorhies opposed every measure for
the maintenance of the union. But
TELEGEAPHIC.
To Kill tbe Boy Kins.
Madrid, April 19 The arrest ot Felipe
Munoz. tbe anarchist, who was betrayed
into tbe hands of tbe police by Delboche,
who informed tbe authorities that Munoz
was the prime mover among tbe anarch-
ibts and supplied bim and others with
bombs, promises to result in the extirpa
tion of a dangerous class in Spain
Munoz has already made a confession
that has caused tbe arrest of a number of
bis accomplices, and it is thought before
tbe police are through with him ill tbe
leading anarchists of Spain will be under
arrest or have sought safety in flight. A
most decided sensation was created to
day by making public tbe further con
fession made by Mnncz to tbe magistrate
who bag charge of the case. Munoz told
the official ibat at a secret meeting of the
anarchists lots will be drawn to decide
which numbers should kill tbe boy king
of Spain. Tbe statement caused much
anxictv, and tbe precautions to guard
against an attack upon tbe king have
been greatly added to. Several anarchists
under arrest confessed an attempt was to
be made to blow up the loyal palace, but
none until now acknowledged a direct
attempt upon the life of the king would
be made. With tbe knowledge tbat such
a conspiracy does exist, the authorities
will be able to guard against it. Tbe
Dublic do not knOw anything beyond
that Munoz revealed (he existence of a
plot to kill the king, bnt it is thought
that in a verv short time cverv one coo
nected with it will be taken into custody
It is also thought Munoz will make a
clean breast of his connection with tbe
anarchist movement, and by tbis-means
escape the life sentence impending over
bim.
A. Conspiracy Which .failed.
Seattle, April 20 Evidence accumu
lates to prove tbat William Radloff
burned bis bouse and a stolen corpse, in
order to defraud tbe life insurance com
panies, and is still alive. A motorman
on a Ballard car says a man with light
hair and false black whiskers boarded tbe
car Tuesday eveniDg at Salmon Bay, but
alarmed at a jocular reference to his
whiskers, iumped off again. He rode to
town on the next car and jumped off on
tbe water front. Radloffs wife- bas gone
back to Tacoma and it is believed if this
was Radloff, be has gone there too. De
tective Cuaibee has gone to Tacoma to
shadow tbe woman and will probably
follow this clue, If tbe body was stolen
from Greenwood cemetery, it was taken
from one of two graves. Only nine
bodies are buried there, and one was re
moved last November to another ceme
tery. Of tbe remaining eight, five are
infants, one woman, one man and one the
sex not known. Tbe stolen body would
be one of the last two. It is evident
from tbe faoi tbat Kostraoch bad a re
ceipt for a registered letter in his posses
sion when arrested, tbat be must bave

mailed a jet tar and got a receipt from
Fremont about 0:au that evening, and a
few minutes later, a man answering

there is do damage yet from that source.

total wreck, also Baker's adobe, and J.

shuck was also felt here at 3:00 this
morning. A few persons were frightened,
but no damage resulted at the time. It
is now cloudy and raining a little.
STATE CAPITOL DAMAGED.
Sacramento, April 21. Another se
vere earthquake shock occurred this
morning at 9 :45 o'clock, lasting 20 sec
onds. Buildings got a lively shaking,
and plastering fell from many ceilings.
Several old chimneys toppled over, and
much glassware was broken in the crock
ery stores. Tbe public schools were dis
missed. Ali the pupils got out without
creating a panic.
The state capitol building suffered by
this morning's severe earthquake. A
large portion of one of the plaster statues
over the portico, 150 feet from tbe
ground, fell and struck forty feet from
tbe building. Tbe gigantic building
trembled violently, and there was a gen
eral exodus of clerks. It was discovered
tbat a crack was made in tbe ceiling ex
tending from one end of tbe building to
the other, and going through tbe office of
the superintendent of public instruction
clear into tbe assembly chamber. Tbe
beautiful ceiling of tbe latter, which is
formed of stucco work tipped with gold,
was rent in places, as were also the Cor
inthian columns supporting tbe gallery.
Books were thrown from the shelves and
general disorder reigned,

Reciprocity Wltb nexleo.
Washington, April 19. The house com
mittee on foreign affairs today took action
looking to a further enlargement of the re
ciprocity policy recently entered upon on an
extensive scale by the United States. This
time it is proposed to enter into close com
mercial relations. The committee's recom
mendation is accompanied by a joint resolu
tion and an interesting report, in which is
exhibited the benefits to result to each coun
try from reciprocal trade relations in certain
commodities. Tbe resolution, the passage of
which tie committee recotrmends, provides
for a joint reciprocity- commission on the part
of Mexico and the United States, requests the
president to invite the government ct the re
public ot Mexico to denote three commission
ers, who shall meet three commissioners des
ignated by the president of the United States,
and negotiate a treaty thereby greater recip
rocity in the commercial relations between
Mexico and the United States shall best be
established. The president is not to appoint
the comni'ssioners on the part of the United
States until Mexico shall have signified her
willingness to enter into such a treaty and has
appointed her commissioners. The report
suggests that the concessions on our part,
which will probably be of mutual advantage,
would be the removal of the duty on lead, or

Senator Dolph is unduly exercised
over the consequences which might
result to Americans in China if a
drastic exclusion bill were passed. If
he knows anything about the subject
at all he must be aware that there can
be no real ground for apprehension
that the Chinese will refuse to give
Americans permission to buy from
them, and that is the chief mission of
the few American merchants who find
their way to that country. As for the
missionairiea, if the Chinese refuse to
allow them to attempt the difficult
task of turning the pagan away from
