A LESSON FOR OKEGON.
There Is a lesiion and a warning foi
the voters of Oregon In the condition
of the once great stale of Texut, ami
the circumstances that brought about
Us present deplorable financial situa
tion, That state is aiiotit to suspend tin
cash payment of its obligations, and foi
the very good reason that there Is not a
dollar In the vaults of the treasury.
This Is the direct result of unwise legis
lation. A few years ago Texas claimed
to be the most prosR'ious state in tlu
union. At that time the cities of tlu
Ht.ue were glowing rapidly, Its lanu
were taken up by farmer and stock
ntlsers us fast as they could be sur
veyed, agriculture boomed, money wat
lHUired Into the state by capitalists
from all over the country and Its num
erous activities were developed at n
rate Unit made older states envious. Ah
new enterprises, were encouraged, am!
ewrv Inducement was offered for the
settlement of Individuals and the In
vestment of money, In sums from out
dollar up, lJu t all this luia been changed
Mlnce 1K'.I2. The crazy and self-oat Isiled
legislature elected that year enacted
Inwa which, an was foretold by prudent
business men Interested In the welfart
of the slate, have effectually killed ofi
many of Its enterprises, have caused i.
general withdrawal of foreign capital
and have broken down Uie credit of the
state to a point where confidence 111 Up After suffering for over tlnve yearn
Btablllty has almost ceased. The puJ 'ith acute neuialgl.i and Its coiisequtnt
, lnomil. (which seemed lo baffle the
tlclans and "statesman" of ISH2-0S efforts of some of our best physicians)
ivaased numero is reform laves ux th.v'''"" suggested this remedy which gave
poawa numerois nrorm laws, us thc ( me B11(Wlt tl8Unt rel,ef Words fall
were pleased to term them. Among '0 express the praise I should like to
.. . ...... i .. , I bi slow on Kninw's Headache Capsules.
Uie changes wrought by the unwhole- Gratefully Yours.
Home legislation of that session of the
legislature were the enact ment of laws
Inimical lo railroad and other corpora
tions and limiting the ra'e ot Interen
to six per cent. The state, with Its In
dustries not one-quarter developed,
rould not mum! up under bucIi laws,
and the demolition of many of Us most
Important Industries was the Inevitable
result. Under tho changed conditions
people who had money to lend would
not put It Into the state and ImmlgrA
tlon fell off alm.ut Instantly. The de
velopment of the hi lineal iudulifc
and the natural resources of the state
and the frlenJIv attention, of the' past
on the part of Investor ceased; trad
was paralyzed. The condition of things
which exists today can be ascribed to
nothing else. The moral Is plain. Let
the voters of Oregon elect, to office, or
even encourage by their tolerance, the
clement In this state corresponding ex-
J (, lhe fa(.llon ot tn(. Democratic
party UUIL hub in.um.-u bu niuiu i uui i
the Industries and credit of Texas, and
tha prospect now so favorable for Its
growth and development in the near
future will totally vanish, and the last
hope of at least the present generation
of Its citizens will forever be lost and
destroyed.
Judge Jenkins, who was Investigated
and so severely criticised by the Roat
ner Investigating committee, for his fa
mous order in the Northern Pacific roil
way cases, has been for many years on
of the leaders of the Wisconsin Democ
racy, lie is a free trader, and was np
pointed to the federal, bench by Preel-
dent Cleveland.

There Is a very decided difference of
opinion among thinking men as to the
righteousness or benefit to society of
such occurrences as took place In the
Jail yard on yesterday.
JAMES W. HARE.
The following communication explains
Itself.
Astoria, Or., May 17th, ISM,
To tho Editor of the Astorlan:
Sir: It Is conceded on all sides, that
James W. Hare has made the most ein
cler'A comiietent and obliging postmas
ter that any community ever had or
could wish for. He has been, In the
best sense of tho term, "a servant of
the people." Early and late, without a
murmur, he has on all occasions
promptly and pleasantly discharged his
duties. This has been one of the guar
antee, to each and every one of us,
who know him, that If he be elected
sheriff of Clatsop county, the functions
of that olllce will be performed by him
In the same upright, manly and thor
ough manner "that lie has performed all
his publics business. Mr. Hara expected
to go to every precinct In the county
and personally see every electiT. In ac
coidancs with that avowed determina
tion, Mr. Hare has already visited many
precincts of the county, and Intended to
continue his Visits until the Saturday
before election. Owing to unavoidable
clr-'umstancea, this pledge he Is now tin
able to keep, as It will not be possible
for him t leave the postofTlce to do any
further work In the present campaign,
and it Is but fair to him that our citi
zens should know the reason why Mr,
Mure Is unable to further canvass the
county. 'The mailing clerk of the post
,lll"e, who has been In that position for
several yearn, up n whose dispatch and
.iccuracy the postmaster and the public
depend, more than upon any other pos-
tal ofllclal, for correctness in delivering
mull, and In whom Mr. Hare placed Im
plicit confidence, has, within the last
five or six days, been appointed engineer
for engine company No. 3, Astoria fire
department, at a salary In advance of
that received by him as mailing clerk.
The clerk deemed It necessary for him
.it once to entjr upon, the duties of his
new situation. He did so, and by so
doing left Mr. Haro in such a position
that he must neglect the work which
.lea Immediately before him, or he must
leave the canvass cf the balance of the
county, not yet visited, to his frlttds.
Mr. Hare proposes to do his duly, Hinl
this requires him to act ua mailing clerk
for the remainder of his term. Let his
friends see to It that he does not sutler
at the polls for his determination to
rather suffer Injury himself than that
the public, should be Inconvenienced. As
one of his friends, knowing him for
niiMiy years, finding him always hust,
.1 faithful friend or an open enemy,
firmly believing that In his election we
will secure an honorable, Impartial and
faithful officer, one who will Justify
every trust reposed In him, I hope you
will give this communication the widest
possible circulation.

Whore Is "tho tfifst-smashlng Democ
racy" of 1892?
New York Recorder.
The taxpayers of the state of New
York are $2,323,009.51 In the pocket for
having had a Republican Instead of a
De.nocratlo legislature for 1894.
New Orleans Picayune- (Dem.).
The recent changes In the sugar tax
schedule are for the, refiners and op
posed to the producers. The "Pic." says
the sugar trust is almost as powerful in
Cuba as in this country.
St. Louis Glob Democrat.
The Democrats will never become rec
onciled to those census statistics, be
cause It Is Impossible to look at them
without seeing that they present con
clusive arguments In support of the pro
tective policy.
Chicago Inter-Ocean.
With what acclaim the Democrats
would have greeted the marching ar
mies of Coxey, Kelly et al. just two
years ago! But now, avaunt, ye spec
ters of woe, unbidden guests at the
Bourbon festival of spoils!
Portland Oregonlan.
Is It Republican policy. Democratic
polb y or Populist policy that the coun
try wants? Upon comparison of the
condition of the country formerly with
Its condition now, the voters' decision
should be made wltTiout difficulty.
Atlanta; Constitution (Dem.).
"We see how one victory has wrought
more damage than thirty years of de
feat." We have lost the .Hawaiian
Islands. Wo have lost pretty much
everything else, and have fourtd only
"the receiver" and "the free soup
hoilse." ' Now York Tribune.
The' Income tax Is hostile to the spirit
of American Institutions. Very true;
but it Is far more hostile tJ American
Institutions to take from millions of
workers and voters the wages necessary
to support them In the comforts to
which they have been accustomed.
Globe-Democrat.
Having legislated with John Sherman
In finance, and with Thomas B. Reed In
parliamentary usage, the Democrats In
congress are now receding from free
trade Into modified McKlnleylsm. Their
tarllf bill as now proposed Is a botched
Job In protection.
Chicago Inter Ocean.
Trusts can get all the protection they
ask for from the present congress. It is
the American manufacturer, tho farmer
and wool-grower who can get nothing.
They don't own the party; they did not
Invest their money for a change in
1892!
Globe-Democrat.
Instead of considering propositions to
inflate the currency, congress would do
much better to devise- means for giving
olrculatlon and usefulness to the vast
amount of money that Is now lying Idle
In the banks because nobody wants to
borrow it at any price.
Baltimore Sun (Dem.).
It turns out that Senator Aldrloh's
only error was in understating- by 100
the number of amendments that Sena
tor Gorman and his co-conaplrators pro
posed to engraft upon the bill. He
should have said 403 Instead of 300. It
would Beem that an apology Is due by
somebody to Senator Al.lrlrh.
Poughkeepsle Kagle. ,
The revised bill has since been made
puMI ind lo! Instead of 300 amend
ments. It proixwe upward of four hun
dred! What Mr. Voorhees thinks of
hliniHf Is not stated, but what depend-
mv th country can place upon him
can I enniy perceiveo. r.iiner ins
veracity or his sources of Information
need to be revised.

mo-v we virehose- iibr-ad tho less we

laborer. It Is n self-evident pivvstt!on
that what we buy from others we will
nof ihhhI to make ourselves. -.
New York Tribune.
The only friends of the Gorman tariff
arc the trusts and the sucar stvctilntor.
Prince Rlmnaivk said In 1S02: "The
sucees-a (under protection) of the United
States In material development is the
most Illustrious of modern times. The
American nation has not only success
fully borne and suppressed the moot
Klgnntlc and expensive war of all hls
t.iry. but Immediately afterward dis
banded Its army, found work for all Its
soldiers and marines, paid off most of
Ita debt, irlven labor and home to all
the unemployed of -Europe as fast as
they could arrive within its territory,
and has done all this by a system of
taxation Indirect as not to be per
ceived, much lesa felt."
"itocause In my deliberate! Judgment
th.it the prosp-jrlty of America Is main
ly due to Ita system of protection laws,
I -urfre that Germany has now reached
that point where It Is necesary to Iml
tate .the tariff rystem of the United
States." ,
It is fair and pertinent to add that
Germany has followed this advice In a
limited degree, and has found it very
profltabl and advantageous trt her peo
ple and ( her material Interest. J
