OREGON: SAT17JI!A1 r'EBKUAKY 17, IK 3 Iiennnliu" Fraud. MotH f Ai tliaina said the iiian uf.u'tu.w wa- frequent ly the im porter also, and that the real com petitors with the wool growers of this country were the foreign pro- duoars, represented by the import' ing manufacturer. He illustrated bow it was done as follews: ""When wo come to fix a tariff the first Utit we do is to place a specific duty on manufacturers, which is nil equivalent, or a little more than equivalent, for every dollar that the manufacturer pays for wools, on which he bases the manufactured product. We tax the product of ji sum equal to the cost of tho wool and make the consumer pay it. Ho goes to Aus tralia to purchase his wool and ho oetnos home by way of the Ha waiian Islands. He can there price his wool down below the American market in spite of all we on do under the existing laws, merely by unloading his cargo or changing the manifest. "We give him a two-cent reduction of tar if he will do that, and then give him a trt(f on his manufactures, based on the value of the wool in the American market. We reward Win for a fraud upon the treasury by tolling him that if he can find a mxrkot where his first-class wools are less than thirty-two cents a pound, and will bring his wools there and ship them from that point to the United States, he shall have his tariff rates at ten cents a pound instead of twelve" The advocates of the silver dollar are not afraid of any legis ktion at this session to limit or reduce silver coinage. Jones, of Nevada, says that any measure to atop or limit the coinage of silver dollars would be ."overwhelmingly "defeated in both houses. Thi? is uhtl ?mo old fiht against silver titrtl H? 'wn wanrpd Jhv the east for veil'- It will not become a politic question iu the nextpres , i i-n:i' campaign. There is no danger of that. Neither party is a unit upon it. Eastern Republi cans aud Democrats are almost a hU against silver, while the west ern ad southern men are almo.st a wm. m ks favor. This attempt to utrilw iu the coinage of silver is ifce ok! fight for a single standard. The talk about silver being cum tarcoois Htid inconvenient is all mamemr. Nobody wants silver Mevey: but the certificates which it ffefweseats arc as good as any other money, and just as convenient." dcu-Mi't ! 11 a i-lam, but when he I uiak"S sueli abounding statement as the following, we respectfully submit that a course of primary instruction is for htm requisite. The annual shipments of pro duce and merchandise from the Columbia, do not exceed a total of 275,000 tons, including grain, of which 7o,000 tons come from Eas tern Washington, and salmon of which two-thirds of tho canneries are on the Washington side of the Columbia. In the same issue the editor of that meretricious publication says that his editorials are "the produc tions ofa master hand." Tut, tut; leave that for others to say when you have demonstrated the fact. Of all the state exchanges that come to our desk the Standard devotes the most space and atten tion to politics. Whatever may be said as to tho correctness of its views they have at least the merit of sincerity. One always knows just where to find it, which is a merit of itself. Ejlstee papers regretfully an nounce that "there is a great deal of drinkinjr done in congress this winter. Jay Gould says he is "going to have a little play," and will be gin by taking a trip around the world. Er-Gov. Mohgan died at his home iu New York last Wednes day, full of years and honors. The London News says that this yearns European wheat crop will be short. FIEST GKAND earance SALE! AT EMPIEE STORE PRIOR TO STOCK TAKING.
