The Tiles-Mountaineer flATUBDAY. MAECH fe5H- 23. 1894 PSAOTlbAL AND WEAL. The idealist of the East Oregonian appears to be somewhat perturbed be nnnao mm shattered the idol that he worship in the shape of a modern DtnimL Mr. Jackson mar thor- : aughly understand Democracy; bat .the Democrats who have materialised daring the past quarter of a century are far different m every respect from the pictures he has painted. The Democrats whom he dreams tf con tinuously only exist in the imagina tion of a fewt peculiarly gifted indi - viduals, and it would require ouracu- v loue powerto give them being and tangibility. It is mere satisfactory to deal with things as they really exist, and reformations are more easily ef fected and made more .lasting by this -meaasgthan byjidolixing , my tbs and ideals. Bro. Jackson'says: 'The editor ofThe Dalles paper is very frank. His beliefs are very com ' mon and very much akin tothose of a parasite or highwayman. A man without ideas may make a good, suc cessful politician, but it mustjbe borne in mind that he would also be an or dinarily j. successful thiet. JWithout ideals, morals find honor a man is nothingbut a'.Iiving piece of clay, and hss'ne place in'a republic ' If the'realist, 'without morals and honor", is'nothing butja living piece of clay, and has n place in a repub lic," the idealit,ith these, and ith . no faculty of adapting them in every day life, has no proper place of exist ence in a republic, monarchy or other country, outside of a lunatic asyln The man who is constantly preaching the ideal in politics or business, should be viewed with suspicion, for be w ill very likely develope into a hypocrite or a scheming scoundrel. It requires no great study for a man to knor the difference between meum and tuum, and ideality will not help bias to have a finer conception of the rights of property; but it does require some ex perience with things as they exist to give men ordinary common sense. : a truth, which is almost axiomatic, there are more lunatics in asylums from idolizing ideals than there are thieves from following the practical ideas of matters. The man becomes the better citizen by occasionally tear ing down bis castles in the air and as sociating with his fellows as an ordi nory mortal, and not attempting to lead an ethereal existence. It mav aooear strange to some that the editor of the Ban Oregonian, dur u ing presidential campaigns, is in per fect harmony with the party, and sup ports anv fleshly incubus who mav be K " laced at the head of the ticket: but when the contest is over, goes back to his worshin of idols. This may ; be a i consistent, but his politics before and after elections rarely harmonises. During the canvass of 1893 we read nothing in the East Oregonian oenso- I able of Mr. Cleveland or Mr. Hill; I but they have been freely criticised I since. They may net be ureal iemo-I erats in the senate got bold of tbe bo cratsr but they were the same before called Wilson bilL It may be remem- tbe last presidential election, as. they I are now. JTrom sucn actions, one is i inclined to the belief that the editor of I our cotemporary intends to be praoti-1 calj'when votes are required; and only I visionary when it will work no. injury I to his party.. In doing so he is follow- I ing a rule of action which he severely censures in others, and one that' .will effect no great reformation in polities or political parties. The ideal and the real should be harmonized, and in o doing 'men may become better neighbors and citizens, and politics very much purer; but the idea! must be made perceptible, and elotbed with flesh and blood, or else it can never be grasped by these whom it is intended to benefit. WILL EE WBAKBXt Some persons believe tha President Cleveland will sign the Bland seignor ago bilL and thus follow the lead of the Democratic party that elected him, As executive of the nation his highest duty is to the people, irrespective of I party affiliation, and .if he believes this movement in the direction of free silver is to the direct injury of the best interests of the country he should not hesitate a moment in using the prerogative of the veto. His position on the. monetary question is -well known, and he bas unequivocally placed himself on record on different occasions as in favor of the single standard as the measure of value. To sign a bill which provides for tbe coinage of the bullion that is simply collateral on which silver certificates to the full amount have been issued will be stultifying him sell in a re markable degree, and the people will -never again repose confidence in him. The statesman and patriot cannot b- tempted from the path of duty by political or other attractions, scd al ways proves himself equal to any emergency. When Mr. Lincoln, during the -first years of the civil war, was impor tuned to issue the emancipation pro- j clamation, he rose above party, and did not follow the advice of Oreely and other extremists until he consid ered the act emancipating the slaves of the sooth necessary to preserve the union. The nation will hold Mr Cleveland responsible for the result ef I any injurious legislation, and the ex- J ecutive.net the party, must bear the I blame in history. Mr. Lincoln had Ihe highest conception of tbe impor tance of his position, and fearlessly pursued the course that he considered right. It cannot be expected that Mr. Cleveland baa tbe same sterling qualities as the lamented Lincoln; but in trying ordeals he has an unerring pls ef his illustrious predecessor ia the executive chair. If be believes toe Wili-on bill will be defeated in retal iation for bis veto of the Bland bill, it is nevertheless Mr. Cleveland's duty t use his prercgatiye for what he Jmim in htt thm twuir infantata nf the nation, and not folio, th. Station of his party. THE POSTAGE RAILWAY. Dispatches state that the river and harbor committee has positively de cided net to allow any new projects in the present bill, and that nothing can be done in the house for The Dalles improvement It is barely possible that Mr. Dolph and Mr. Mitchell may secure some recognition of the import ance of removing the obstructions to navigation above this point in the senate, but such a measure will never nana cob press at this session, with a bankrupt treasury, and with the neces sity staring Democracy in the face of making-tip the deficit in receipts by every possible curtailment of expendi tures. The River and Harbor bill must suffer by reason of Democratic depression, and the waterways of the country must wait, for appropriations until a change in the administration restores the nation to its former proe- neritv, The Inland Empire,which is directly interested in an open river to the sea should not place its hopes in this re gard upon the government at Wash- ington City. In a few years, the Uo- lumbia will flow unvexed from this avor 0f the Republican policy of pro city to the ocean, and the other por- tection, and when the enemies of tions of Eastern Oregon should be American'manufactures and of Amer aided by the state in their efforts to make this river sn open highway of rvL I cobs me roe. A. portage roaa xrea im Dalles to Celilo could be constructed at an approximate cost of $400,000, and, while this would afford but tem porary relief to producers, it might peduoe freight rates until the govern ment could build a ship railway or canal, which would permit the trans portation of products to tide-water. without breaking bulk. Eastern Ore gon is entitled to this consideration from the legislature, as the public I funds have been heretofore lavishly riven to DUbtio institutions in ioe I western portion of the state, and the region east ol tne yascaaes nas eeived little ot no recognition. The railroad monopoly has charged very high rates for transporting grain over its lines, and the saving in water car- m m . 1 a. riaxe would inure to me oenent oi every farmer and shipper. This im provement would be a lasting benefit to every person in this portion of the state, and would be a great stimulant I to the development ot the country. I The press should be a unit in this I matter. and at the county election in June every candidate should bo une quivocally pledged to a portage read around the obstructions at this point. THE SUGAR TRUST. 'Tariffs breed trusts" when tariffs are of Democratic manufacture, says th'e Inter Ocean. The sugar trust is selling its stock- "like hot cakes," and at figures far beyond those at which hpt eakee are quoted, since the Demo- bered that the effect of the McKmley tariff was to depress the price ot sugar trust stocks, and, indeed, until tbe Democratic party began to tinker with the tariff the sugar trust was believed to be dying from inanition, or, as the boys say, "from want of pap." Now it is renewing its mighty and oppres- sive youth from Democratic stimu lants. The production of sugar in. tbe United States was 370,579,307 pounds for the year 1832. A duty of one and four-tenths cents fer pound will give $5,187,999 -as additional cost to the product, for it is an axiom ef economy that where the product ef a domestic article does not nearly equal the de mand, and where the duty levied on imports does not stimulate production of the home-made article, the tariff duty operates as a tax both on tbe home-made article and the imported article of like nature. But the sugar produced in the United States is but a small part of that which is consumed. The coh- sumption of domestic and imported sugar amounted to 3,bZ7,lZ6,UUU pounds for the year 1892. So that tbe imposition of even one cent duty on sugar involves a tax of $36,272,260 a year upon the people of the United States. The duty proposed by the senate ranges between 1 'cent and 1 1-10 cents. Thus more than $36,271,260 of texts are to be laid on the people for ihe benefit of the sugar trust mainly, and secondarily for tbe - benefit of Louisiana sugar-growers. ST. PATRICK. The good St. Patrick, who has been alepted as the patron saint of Ireland, is a character well known to the his tory of Christianity in the 'early ages of the church. His memory is warmly cherished by the people of the emerald island, and the 17th of March is al ways observed -in honor of bim. It maices little difference where he was born. Sufficiently is knows to give him prominence in the history of the world for the many virtues he prac ticed, and the life of self-sacrifice that he devoted to the conversion of the inhabitants of Ireland to Christianity, He was very successful, and the churches of Ireland furnished mission- anes to the heathenish Uelta and bax one of Britain. With tbe migration With the of this people into different portions of the world they have carried with them a veneration for this holy man, and today the green will be worn in every country on the face of the gjobe. Tbe warm hearts of the sons of Erin will always keep green the memory ef their patron saint, and with that will be linked theashopes of freedom aad ef nationality. ; A NOTE OF WARNING. wasco county bas always had an unenviable reputation for factional fights in the Republican party, and although Hermann received nearly 0W mAl0rUJ 1892. tn Kepupll- l i r , i cans were aeieatea lor important om ces.

' The eyes of the nation are on Oregon, and in this era of wide spread business tagnation every Re publican owes duty to his party and to his country. This year thete should be no slaughtered victims by being stabbed in the back by pretending friend within the party ranks, and it may be avoided by fair and impartial actions at the primaries and at conven tions.

Aad new cornea the Chinese govern' nient, through its minister at Wash ington City, and notifies the United States that those ef its citizens in China, who are laborers, must be reg istered, ibis is simply tit for tat. A. W. D., the Washagton City correspondent of the Oregonian, is in bad repute with Oregon Democrats. If he senda many more dispatches lika that of yesterday he will receive no ovation from tbe Democracy when he returns to this state. The citizens of Walla Walla do not feel happv ever the appointment of Dunphy to the land office in that. city. He was not indorsed by Wallar-Wall ians: but then (irover Cleveland is running the administration irrespeo tive of the resident! of Walla Walla. Tbe latest report from administra tion headquarters in Washington is that the president will veto tbe Bland bilL This may cause the defeat of the Wilson bill in 'the senate, and the country will Ite saved from two Dem ocratic evils, free coinage aad free trade. In the Breckinridge Pollard suit the evidence for the plaintiff has nearly all been heard, and the reputation of the Kentucky congressman is as un savory as it could be. mat be bas been guilty of a most cowardly seduc tion is proved beyond question; but a court of justice can never right tbe wrongs suffered by Miss Pollard, and a speedier and - more effectual way would be tbe usual method resorted to in such cases. ' President Cleveland must face the music. If he refuses to sigh tbe Bland seignorage bill the Wilson tariff meas ore will probably be defeated in the senate, and if he does approve it he will write himself a political -coward, who has not tbe courage of his con victiona. The nation will wait with anxiety to see whether the great idol of Democracy is brave enough to meet the dilemma boldly and honestly which now confronts bim. - The Washington correspondent of the Oregonian is rather severe on Ore gon Democrats, when he says that a distinguished member of the adminis tration stated if what these Demo crats said of each other were true "there were few of tnern that ought to be outside the penitentiary." After waiting all these weary months for a chance to feed at the public crib it is adding insult to injury to have such language applied to tbe patient Demo crats in this state. Tbe plstform ef the Populists adopted at Oregon City, endorse the initiative and referedum in the first plank, and the others may be summed up as denunciatory of everything and every person in - general who do not coincide with their views on national question. Of course, the party is composed of disgruntled politu-iana nd discentended citizens, and these might be expected to give utterance to a tale of woe that would harrow up the soul of their fellow citizens. The ma chinery ef the world has been going wrong, and tbe Populisms constitute themselves the proper persona to set matters right; but we do not believe they will have the opportunity, a d their efforts for political preferment will be simply a waste of force. It is no time now to experiment with theo ries uf political dreamers, and the country desires a return to the good old times of Republican protection and prosperity as soon as possible. Oregon will be true to the party next June, and will secure a victory over the Populists and Democrats, either singly or combined. This is irony from the Salem States man; but we must remind our cotem porary that there are no "Democratic wool growers" in Eastern Oregon: "The United States senators from the various sections insist upon patching the Wilson bill so ss to protect the products and manufacturers of their immediate constituents. But our poor Democratic wool growers of Eastern Oregon don t seem to have a friend in that aueust bod v. Isot a senator to temper the wind to the shorn lambs. Net a mbmber to turn a sympathetic ear to the mournful bleating of the hundreds of thousands of poer mut ton sheep goiug to slaughter. Unwept and unmourned these poor sheep from a thousand hills go through the Dem ocratic slaughter house that will end in the Democratic open grave. Friend less our bunchgrass Democrats stand in the house of their friends, reared and roofed by themselves, furnished by their own labor. Net an emotion of sympathy do their sad misfortunes receive as they are stabbed to death by the cruel Brutus knife of Demo cratic senators' votes. This spectacle is enough to wring tears from the painted eyes of a wooden Indian cigar sign." In the death of Louis Kossuth the rorld loses one of its most unselfish patriots, and a man who is well known en both sides of the Atlantic, The bast years of his life he gave to Hun garian liberty, and sunered exile in consequence. In the evening of life he witnessed an acknowledgement of the independence of his country, and the inauguration of Jbe Austre Hun gary empire. mis did not ful fill his dream of Maygar liberty, and he always expressed dissatisfaction with the arrangement. About forty years ago he paid a visit to the United States, and addressed several large audiences in this country. His com manding presence and sil very-toned voice is still recollected by many of our citizens, and no one ever listened to Kossuth without feeling some de gree of admiration for him and heartfelt sympathy with the sufferings of his native land. He was a man of great literary accomplishments, and as an orator was second to but few of his time; Living to the good eld age of 92 years, his life had been a "troubled stream," but the shades of evening found him peaceful and contented. laved by his countrymen and spected and honored by the world.'

Early in tbe rao'atog over 800 men marched to what is known as the Red bridge, about two miles below this city, and compelled the foreigners employed at 75 cents per dsy on the Bell wood extension of tbe Altoona & Logan Valley road to cease work and flee to tbe hills lor thsir lives. Next the crowd, ey this time strongly reinforced, proceeded to the Elizabeth turnace, where in two shanties about 60 Italians were found and bodily thrown out and compelled to leave, .after which three different attempts were made to fire the buildings. Tbe tire however, was put out in eacn instance. During tbe trouble at tbie point, one Italian was shot in ihe d k and badly beaten about tbe head w'ii a stone. The uezt point of attack whs Bell wood, where all tbe foreigners found were driven out. When the crowd, uow fuliy 800 strong, returned to Altoooa.it proceeded at once to the Italian colony, on Ninth avenue, between Seventh aad Ninth streets, with tbe avowed intention of cleaning the en lire neighborhood of both tbe foreigners aad the shanties. THE RIOT SQUELCHED. While the mob, now numbering fully 8000 persons, were hesitating about be ginning the attack, Geneial Superintend ent F. I. Sheppard. of the Pennsylvania railroad Company, appeared upon the scene, and, forcing his way into the ceo er of the crowd, demanded to be shown its lderg. Several of theie being pointed out to him. he asked them to have the crowu uispersea, giving his assurance tbat nine of the foreigners would b- given lunber work, and that if they were given a nine iiiuq they would a t Uave the city. He also promised that Amer icans would be given work by the A1 toooa & Logan Valley Company and its contractors, and tbat all would be well if violence were not resorted to. Sheriff Hughes sod Mayor Hoyer also made their appearance soon afterward and ad- j . .. . , dressing oc c.-owa in much tbe same s'rain, tbe backbone ot the proposed riot was broken and tbe crowd gradually dispersed. Tbe Logan Valley officials annouoce this evening 'bat no more work will be done on tbe extension of their lines until all labor troubles are amicably settled sod no turtber danger or out break msy be f'tared.
