THE OREGON SCOUT, j INUKUSOI.I. OS IMMORTALITY. AMOS K. JOXKS EDITOIt, City and County Official Paper. Thursday, Dec. 2G, 1889. THAT. L'Xl'LEASANTXESS. . It may have been noticed by eomo of our readers Hint u slight unpleasant ness hns existed between Ilev. S. M. Driver and oursclf for several weeks past. Kogurding this matter wo will say that the gentleman, whom wo had never before met in person, called on us this week and wo had a candid re view of the' whole matter. Mr. Driver assured us that whatever the impress ion may have been, that was made up on the congregation by his words, it was not his intention to insult us or to abuse us as an individual ; Hint ho thought wo hnd us much right to ex press our views as an infidel as ho had to express his as a christian, nnd be- causo a uuierencc exists between us was no reason why wo photild engage in war and hlttbi- personalities. In this wp entirely ngrco with him. . Wo certainly thought that thd language, which it .was reported to us that ho had used, justified us in tho course wc pursued. If Mr. Driver's statement is truo thoso roports were greatly exag erated and his language misconstrued. While quick to resent what wo deem an insult, no man would bo slower in repulsing tho hand of an opponent when ottered in a spirit of amity and reconeilliation, or more willing to cor rect an error, when convinced that one has boon made. Wo doubt not that Mr. Driver and ourself will got along quito peacefully hereafter. It may bo that tho animal nature in neither ono of us is dovoloped to such an extent as to unfit us for tho society of our fellow beings. UNI ON.

' Tho business outlook for Union, as the approach of a now year draws near, is exceedingly bright and cheerful and every indication points to a rapid in crease with tho now year. Now busi ness uro seeking locations, now build ings aro being decided upon, now en terprises looking for openings and a general now infusion of blood and en ergy in all directions is apparent, which is especially gratifying. Willi tho be ginning of 18U0 wo may expect to bo fairly started in tho direction of an en ergetic display of business vigor, which will make a most favorable showing before tho year is ono-third advanced. Tbero is enough outlined in tho way of progress to demonstrate that tho com ing year will bo tho most prosperous in tho history of Union, and it may bo safely estimated that tho population will double itself in tho next twelve months, judging from tho present outlook, .

President Harrison recommends mail subsidies for ocean stoamship lines. This is to beeoino a font tiro of tho republican policy that will fitly go with protection of tho industry of tho country. It is u policy to bo put in contrast with tho democratic policy of inertia and mossbaekisni. Oregonian. A policy of high protective tiiritt' to run steamship lines out of existence, nnd subsidies to bring (hem bad;. A tariil' to koop foreign goods out of our ports, and subsidies to bring thorn in. Will it bo tho policy of tho republican party to kill tho carrying trade of our steamship linos by a continuanco of tho tariff, and pay thorn to run empty? Tariil' and subsidies! twin robbers of tho producing classes. This maintain anco will truly never bo called "inertia and mossbaekisni" but ratlior onorgol ic, progressive thievery. Ochoeo Novum. Fkkj: tobacco and heavily taxed clothing and food. Tho president says lio would remove tho tax from tobacco and spiritH used in tho artH, but would leave tho high tarill'tax on tho farm er's juto sacks and binding twine, on tho necessary clothing and food of tho laboring man and mechanic. What do farmers and labor people who wero cajoled into voting for Harrison last fall thiilk of this proposition to niakn tobacco, a luxury, free, while main taining a high ;tax on tho poor wo man's blanket and shawl, and, in fact, on all tho neccKsuiies of life. Jlut tho pcoplo wero warned against this folly, but thoy believed tho prebident would uovcr recommend it. It is an oyo oponer. Tun Union board of trade khould moot at onco and make preparations for active work. Buch a body is of in calculable benefit to a town when 'in good working order. it In a rei ent issuo of Tin: Sjoitt wo undertook to show that tho tariff on wool was no protection- to, the wool grower. "J. u." in last wcok's focouT refers to our letter, and 'without at tempting to rcfuto any of our proposi tions therein set forth, dishes us out several doses broken most of which have been hcrotQforo proscribed by the Oregonian, from whore "3. G." no doubt procures his medicine. As ho has virtually admitted tho wortli of tho conclusions reached in our former lottor, wo shall devoto a few lines to tho analysis of what ho has to say, generally, on tho tarid' question. Ho says on tho outsot that, "tho demo crats talk and write articles for free trade. Thoy proclaim it from east to west, no matter whether it is called tariil' for rovontio or tariff reform, it signifies no protection to American in dustry." Tariff for rovontio is free trade; chicken pie is pork pio; a turkey gobbler is a turkey hen ; black is white and ix niggor is a whito man. A oloso obsorvor of "J. G's" stylo of treatment would no doubt conclude, and justly, that ho had adopted that Hystom known as christian s-cienco, und all tho pationt must do is to believe n thing no matter how absurd or unreasonable it is and it is therefore truo. Nobody advocates Jfrco trade nor will it bo ad vocated by any considerable number of our pcoplo until there is a radical change in tho present avstom of col lecting revenues. Any per cent of taritf levied on imported goods of which tho same kind aro manufactured in our country, to that extent is a proteo tion of our home manufacturer. Tint principle is tho same no matter whoth or tho rates bo high or low, general or restricted. Tho present tariil' on tin plate is ono cent por pound or about 70 por oont. iidvalorom. ".1. 0." would have tin plato taxed so high that tho eouMtmors of tin would reel as they trod tho ground, in order to build up another monopoly in this country in the manu facture of tin plato. In tho interest of tho farmer, tho mechanic, tho laborer mid all others who aro obliged to and do two a great many tin vossols, tin ought to bo on the freo lisLand cheap ened us much as possible. In tho in terests of tho homo manufacturer thuro should be a killing tariff. ".1. G." says, "tho laboring mon aro flocking from froo trado countries to got tho bpnolUs of tho tariff." Great Jehovah I llarvoy Scott outdone! Laborers flocking from freo trade countries! Germany, Italy, Franco, thou art jewels in tho froo trado con stellation. "J.G." is ontitlwl to tho belt and a chromo bosidos. Do farm ers want freo trade? "No, thoy nood their products protected nioru." Ah, that is just what thoy do, "J. G." and pray how aro thoy going to gyt it? Is I it within tho poficibilitios for fanners to bo protected by means of a tariff on their products? Answer that, "J. G." and you can have another chromo. "Tho tariff make us tho best paid laborer in tho world." Let's oo.
