ASTOBIA. OREGON:
THURSDAY. DECEMBER 6. 1SSS.
The Montgomery, Ala., Advertiser
says there Trill be lively times in Ala
bama politics two years hence. Quite
a number o weak-kneed Democrats
will go into the new proposed protec
tion party.
In the senate last Tuesday, Mc
Donald, of Minnesota, presented a
petition of the citizens of North Da
kota for immediate admission into the
Union, South Dakota and Montana,
and for the consideration of North
Dakota, Washington and New Mex
ico; referred to committee.
Capt. Eamset, of the JO. S. cruiser
Boston, says from inquiry on his ar
rival at Port au Prince in regard to
the seizure of the steamer Haytian
Republic, he found she had been
selling munitions of war, and going
up and down the coast carrying in
surgents. She was taken by a Hay
tian man-of-war and condemned, ap
parently in the regular way..
i
The following are the congressional
expressions of Cleveland's message:
Springer, Democrat, of Illinois, said:
"It is as strong on the tariff question
as the lost one, though not so explicit.
It is a good paper."
Congressman Heed, Republican, of
Maine: "A year has brought about a
great change. Then it was a condi
tion that confronted us, and not a
theory, and now, apparently, it is a
theory and not a condition."
Senator Ingalls, Republican, of
Kansas, said: "President Cleveland's
imperturbability is entirely too perfect
to be the result of self control."
Congressman Boutelle, Republi
can, of Maine, said: "It is the old
straw threaded again. The message
is weary, stale and flat, and unprofit
able."' Senator Gorman, Democrat, of
Maryland: "It is a very interesting
statesmanlike document."
Congressman Foran, Democrat, of
Ohie: '"The president has consented
to let wool alone this time. If he had
been so discreet before, the Republi
cans would not havo had the next
president and the next house.
A sfeoiaii from Washington says:
Leaving out of account tho ono dis
trict in Tennesseo over which tho
state canvassing board is disputing,
and giving each party two representa
tives from West Virginia, as appears
to be the case, tho Republicans will
have 166 members of the next house
of representatives and tho Democrats
153. Giving the Democrats the Ten
nessee district, which, according to
the returns is not theirs, and three
out of the four districts in West Vir
ginia, which they claim, the Republi
cans will still havo a majority of five
votes. Certificates have been issued
in all the doubtful districts except
those named in West Virginia and
Tennessee. Gov. Taylor, of Tennes
see, seems determined to issue the
certificate to the Republican candi
date in order, it is said, to make
friends with that party. He is a can
didate for the senate against Isham
G. Harris, and is a protectionist.
He expects to receive the support of
the Republicans in the legislature,
which he cannot hope for it he does
not give a certificate of election to
Evans, Republican, who claims it by
over 800 majority.
U.S. FINANCES.
From The Report of The Semury of The
Treasnry.
Washington, Dec 4. The annual
report ot tne secretary of the treasury
shows that the total ordinary reve
nues of the government for the fiscal

to 5373,266,074.76, of whioh 8219,091,.
173.63 was recived from customs du
ties, and 8124,296,871.93 from internal
revenue taxes. The total receipts
from all sources exceed those for the
fiscal year ended June 30, 1888, by
87,862,797.10. The ordinary expenses
of the fiscal year ending June 30,
1888, 8259,653,958.67, leaving a sur
plus oi siia,t)iz,iiu.uy.
The decrease in expenditures as
compared with the Year ended June
30, 1887, was 88,278,220.30, notwith
standing the payment of more than
$500,000 for pensions in excess of
what was paid for ,that purpose in
the latter mentioned year.
The estimated receipts for the
the year ending June 30, 1890, are
8377,000,000, and the estimated or
dinary expenditures for the samn
time are 8275,767,48134, showing a
surplus or ciui.zoz.oii.wj.
The foregoing statements of the snr
plus, do not take into account the
sums necessary to be expended to
meet the requirements of tho sinking
fund cot, amounting to more than
S47.000.000 annually.
The cost of collecting tho customs
revenues for the last fiscal year was
2.44 per cent For the year 1885 it
was 3.77 per cent.
The excess ot internal revenue taxes
collected during the last fiscal year
over those collected during the
year ending June 30, lsav,
was S5,480,174.26, and the cost
oi collecting this revenue de
creased from 3.4 per cent, in 1887 to
less than 3.2 per cent for last year.
The tax collected on oleomargarine
was 8723,948.04 for the year ending
June 30, 1887, and SS61.130.8S for the
following year.
ber 29. 1RSS wna SQft 11 (UR Rl Tho
surplus revenues from that date to
oudbou, iooy, as estimated, are syd,
865.208.25, making the total accumu
lations of June 30, 1889, which could
ut usea in tne purchase or bondd,
$171,810,054.09.
Between September 29 and Nov
ember 12, 844,399,509.50 has been paid
fnr lmniH PnneainAnltt. Zt vnA
bonds were bought between now and
ouuo lu ueii, ine surplus wonia men
amount to 8127,000.000. With a sur
plus already accumulated amounting
to8101,000,000,thiswouldmakea total
of 8228,000,000 which might be used
during the next nineteen mouths for
the purchase of the interest tearing
debt. Calculations on this basis
would show ihat the principal and
interest on the 4 per cent, bonds
could be paid before 1900.

DIDS'T KEEP THE 1IOXKY.
" MiLWAUKGE,Dec 5. President Ln
cas, of the First National bank of
Columbus, Indiana, who was recently
robbed of a largo amount of money
by William Schruler. his bookkeeper,
is in the city in search of some of the
plunder.
Luoas camo from indoor, Uu-
tario, where he made n settlement
with Schruler and secured a mem
orandum of places where he de
posited ins ill gotten cams. Scliru-
ler arrived in this city Friday and
placed 3192,000 in securities in the
Merchants Exchange bank. He
then went to Waukesha, Wisconsin,
and placed 845,000 in the Waukesha
National bank, niter which he
skipped to Canada. President Lucas
secured the Waukesha money yester
day and this morning tho Merchant's
Exchange bank delivered the bulk of
tne plunder to him. Lucas is on bis
way to Chicago, where ho expects to
add 86,500 from some Chicago
bank. Schruler has been given his
freedom from prosecution.
SUIT AGAISST THE 6ITGAE COMBINATION.
New Tor.K, Dec. 5. The case of
the people against tho North River
Sugar Refining company, was contin
ued this morning. James U. Uarter,
counsel for defendant continued his
argument. He said the combination
cf sugar refining companies, was not
intended as a monopoly for the man
ufacture of sugar, nor was it for tho
purpose ot increasing tho price of
sugar. Sugar, he -said, was a com
modity limited only by the inability
to manufacture raw material unlim
ited in supply, and all that was re
quired for its manufacture was capi
tal and labor. There were other com
modities that are by nature restricted
in supply, and a combination to con
trol such, for the purposo of increas
ing its value might come under the
charge of a violation of law. Sugar
is not a necessity of life although,
being so much used by people- all
over the globe, it might bo nearly so
considered.
