TUB TTALL FISHING.
In another column Mils' morning will be
noticed ain Interview with Mr. Sofue Jen
sen, in which he deals at some length
with the question Of fail Ashing. This
Interview was held on Thursday, but
the subjects It touched on opened up so
much matter for consideration that ' it
was thought wise to defer its publication
for a day In order to enable us to fully
weltfh all the suggestions made.- In ad
dition to Mr. Jensen's ideas on the sub
ject, the Astorian has been flavored with
the opinions of a number of prominent
packers, several of whom including
Messrs. M. J. Kinney and J. O. Hanthorn
have visited this office to confer con
cerning the matter. If we correctly un
derstand these gentlemen they all agree
as to the evil effects of fall fishing upon
the sale of spring salmon, but there is
a. difference of opinion among them as
weH as between them and ourselves as to
the proper remedy. The result of these
conferences, however, leads us to be-
Vleve that some plan may be devised by
which the desired end can be accom
plished without the necessity of resorting
to the extreme measures outlined in for
mer articles In this paper.
With the hope that something might
come of this general Interest created
and excited by the Astorian, and feed
ing that the cannerymen and fishermen
themselves may arrive at some satisfac
tory solution of the trouble, and be
M'Ke to harmonize the ' conlllctlng in
terests Involved in the discussion, we
have deemed It politic to defer fur
ther aggressive action on our own part
until such time as It shall be apparent
that negotiations now In' progress fall to
effect the desired purpose.
The Astorian feels particularly grat-
illed to think that Its careful and tonscl
entlous labors on behalf of the best in
terests of Astoria, and the sal-non Indus
try have been the cause of arousing
tiit attention of the parties most in
terested, to the Importance of prompt
and effective tuition. The cessation oi
the agitation on our part, it must he
understood, is onCy temporary, and our
present attitude is simply taken with
a view, of affording time for further
and more deliberate consideration,
CHEAPNESS VS. EXCELLENCE.
The workings of the Gorman tariff
show in an unmistakable manner that
cheapness and free trade are as firm
allies as are protection mid excellence.
Taking the case of free wool, an Investi
gation of any market In the United
States will show that the quality of the
woolen goods now being offered for vale
throughout the country is vastly inferior
to the quality and finish of the goods
that were sold here a' few years ago. The
foreign manufacturers of woolwi goods
have determined to secure as much ot
our trade as they possibly con under the
lower tariff now In existence. What
they cannot get by the undervaluation
fraud they will get by fraud in the ad
mixture of the component parts of the
goods. Articles that they offer to well us
as being made of all wool are either part
wool and part shoddy, or ull shoddy.
There ki no disgrace in wearing gar
ments that are made ot shoddy, only let
them be sold as shoddy. 'Everybody un
derstands, of course, that they will not
wear as long as goods made of pure wool
and nobody expects that they will; they
cost let. But when wages ore lower
thun their former high' level, and when
the number of earner is less than It used
to be, the question of a few dollars forms
a considerable factor In the cost of a
purchase of woolen goods. The shoddy
srtlcfe can be furnished for the smaller
outlay and the buyer will often console
himself with the fact that he may be able
to afford better material later on when
times have Improved. Thus It In that
shoddy garment sre at present regulat
ing value for all our woolens. In order
to meet this competition the American
manufacturers have. In some Instances,
attempted to supply the market with
goods made from shoddy In this country,
though the shoddy Itself may all, or a
part, have been Imported. In tills way
the demand for pure wool Is curtailed,
and the sheep farmer suffers.
It Is not only In ths case of wool-m
goo&s that the consanguinity of cheap
ness and free trade Is so noticeable. It
nar.ds stamped on almost every article
made In a free trade country, where the
value of labor I degraded to the lowest
competing point. Wat-re a market fan
not be secured, or a margin of profit
gained, by suueciing additional blood
money out of the unfortunate free trade
labor. It Is dons by deteriorating the
quality of the goods manufactured. This
has been particularly noticeable during
recent years In the construction of Eng
lish tm'h!ps, those ordinary freight
(.,..),., iK-.t ' our free traders wore to
anxious tht we should purchase under
a fi-ee tOlp bill, and which the foreign
shipbuilders and foreign nhll owners
wers, on their part, equally anxious to
sell us. For stability, sound material,
careful workmanship and excellence ct
finish, the American steamship today
stands second to none In the world.
Good wages mean good work: cheap
wages mean cheap work. Free trade
means cheap wages and cheap goods;
protection means good wages and the
best of goods.
Ex-Secretary of the Navy Tracy says
he can scarcely believe the report that
the United States battleship Indiana
muat go to Nova Scotia to be docked,
as the government has no docks large
enough to receive it. He says that the
construction of docks for our big bat
tleships was begun while hi was secreta
ry, and ' he does not understand why
they have not been finished. It Is mor
tifying to be obliged to send the Indiana
to Nova Scotia, but If the ex-secretary
would put this and thai together he
would remember that the Cleveland ad
ministration Is principally noted for not
doing what ought to be done, and that
if the late Democratic congress could
have had 'its own way it would not i,n!y
have had no docks but no battleships
either.
It Is strange that none of the surviving
officers of the Union army were among
the speakers at the Chloamauka Park
dedication. Is it possible that they were
not invited by the administration? It
was en occasion when such men a ex
Presldent Harrison, R. O. Ingersoll and
others Would have shown to advantage.
The speeches were all good ones, and
brimful of patriotIm, but it seems a little
odd that a demonstration of that kind
shiioM be presided over by Vice-President
Stevenson, who was ai copper-head dur
ing the war, and that all the other
speakers, except General Palmer, who
.would have been court-martlaHed for de
sertion if he had been a private soldier,
should have been ex-Coirfedenalte veter
ans. There is a general complaint from pa
rents that the building occuplad by Miss
Warren's school, on Exchange Street, Is
totally unadopted for school purposes.
The locality Is considered unheaUhful1,
and the surroundings of the school are
very -dangerous. It would seem that the
ichool directors can certainly find a bet
ter location for this large and growing
school in some other convenient section
of the city.

The closing days of the exposition at
Portland will be devoted to a chrysan
themum show, for which liberal premi
ums ore offered The show will be under
the management of the Oregon Flower
Association, which held such a successful
roce show last June. There are prizes
for both amateurs and professionals, and
entries are Invited from growers of flow
ers everywhore.
The future of the hop industry, despite
present depressing conditions, is bright
and premising. The return of the Re
publican party to control In the national
legislation Is an assurance that the In
dustry will bo given needed protection,
and the home market preserved for eur
own goods.
One of the things the reading public has
to stand along with the yacht races Is 'the
quarrel of the Now York newspapers
as to which first dhronlclej the fact that
the Defender's spreader and topmast were
broken.

ADAMS' TARIFF LESSON.
Industry Is the true gauge of prosper
ity. Whenever i;nd wherever Industry is
depressed and the wages of worklngmen
are Tow, then and there Is found stagna
tion .t business Interests, commercial dl
trust, and a hesitating, uncertain market.
With strong confidence, good waxes and
the home market demand for Its pro
duct, Industry hums fromi morning until
night and happiness surrounds the llre
eldcs of tolling men. This wo have
learned from the lessons of the mills of
Adanm. The happy homes of the work
IrR'men and the ceaseless opportunities ct
labor have taught us, In comparison with
unhappy homes ond depressed Industries
rnore political economy Kian salaried
irofesons can Instil In neatly elaborated
Impractical theory, and still we -have
another Iftwon right here at home.
AVftvn the McKlnley bill Increased the
tariff on fine cotton lawns, the Uerk
hlre Coition Manufacturing company of
this town was Institute,! with a capltaC
stock of JWO.0O0. It built Its flr.it mill,
vnd, beeauj but little machinery for the
manufacture of fine cottons could be pro
cured in this country, the mechanics-,
'.ulflt of mill No. 1 was bought abroad.
The result was that hundreds of thous
ands of American money want Into Eng
lishmen's pockets and we received their
machinery.
As the McKlnley bill grew older,, pro
tecting the manufacture of fine lawns,
the local mills, with others located In
different parts of the country, besan to
force our English-made goods of this
clues, and, with an Increased demand
'or American cottons there came a de--miml
for machinery to make that class
3f poo.M, resulting In the manufacture
if American machinery for fine cottons.
The local company prospered and decided
to Increase lu plant to the value ot
11,000.000 by the addition of a mill similar
to the first, and thus It was that, when
Berkshire Mill No. i was built, nearly
Vt of the mechanical equipment was
tmJo In America, and the cash for the
same went Into 'American pockets. lp
he Instance of the first mi l, we secured
English -machinery and England secured
mwlcnn money, in the second Instance
America produced ths machinery and still
retained the money.
This was the result of McKlnelylsm.
Not only did the .high protective tariff
enable the manufacture hers of fine
awns. In the Mce of English competition,
Sut Si'so enahled the construction ot
merlcan machinery for ths production
of those grades of cotton. It was a trl
un:vh for American labor over foreign
competition in the home market, and it
was Indeed fitting that -the dlctatory
speech at mill No. I -was delivered by
Governor McKlnley of Ohio.
Ail that was pleasing to the people ot
Kdama, and pleasing as well to every
wn Interested In line cottons and Ma
chinery fop manufacturing ths same.
Then came change. With ths erratic
tidal wave.-which swept the Republican
-virty from power, came business distrust
nrxl deprerAlon, and finally ths fatherless
tariff bill became a law without the signa
ture of the president. Lu-'kily for Adams,
m'.y i-art of our Industrie wers hard
lit by the tariff bill, that of gtmraara
c.r.e receiving a set back from the de
moralisation of tariff schedule though
depression humbled all Industries for the
time being. When the market again be
came animated, due to the assurance of
returning Republican term One oottotis
once mors took their place, though! ths
protective duty on machinery for ths
manufacture of the same had been re
duced 22 per cent. This reduction, how
ever, did not sffect Adams, and wages
wero restored.
The Berki'Mre -Cotton Manufacturing
company recently decided to double their
plant by the erection of a mammoth mill
at a cot of a million dollars. Immedi
ately on receipt of the intelligence, mill
men In dlflerent porta of the country
sought to place the mechanical equip
ment, and representatives of English
firm? also made overtures for the placing
of the machinery, with the result that
the present tariff so handicaps the Amer
ican "manufacturer of mechanism for the
production of cotton of the finer grades
that John Hethertngton & Sons of Man
chester, England, wlC-V supp.y the new
million-dollar mill with upwards of $300,000
worth of machinery. This Is the result
of the 22 po- eent reduction In the Mc
Klr.Oey rate whijl't protected the machine
manufacturers. Onto again wilC England
secure American money while we receive
her) machinery. McKlnleylsmi was the
production of mills and machinery at
home, a saving of American money;
Democracy la but a division of the bene
fits of the home market with the for
eigner. The lesson Is clearly demonstrated by
the Berkh!re -mills of Adams, and while
we rejoice that a vestige of protection
enablea us to gain a magnificent addition
to the present plant of the Berkshire
Cotton Manufacturing company, we re
gret that the machine manufacturers ot
thiis country could not share with us the
benefits of home market for home In
dustry. The 'Adama 'Freeman, Adams,

SILVER IN TEXAS.
Philadelphia Times.
Senator Alills' emphatic declaration
against the free coinage of silver has
more than common significance. On the
surface U might be taken as an Indica
tion that the silver craze has spent its
force In the south and that the Texas
senator has adapted his opinions to the
current. Mills is not that kind of man.
There Is nothing of the demagogue about
him. Ho Is a man of sturdy Intellectual
honesty and fearless In maintaining his
convictions, and If his attitude on any
public question changes, it Is because
changed conditions have altered his opin
ion. A few years ago "bimetallism" was
still1 a tenable theory, and it was possible
for an honest man to think that the ad
mission of silver to the mints of the
United States would suffice to check Its
depreciation. This was the basis of the
experiments made by congress, In the
Bland and Sherman acts. Their disas
trous results proved the fallacy of the
theory, but no moral delinquency was
proved against those who had favored
these experiments. It is only those who
persist In maintaining an exploded theory
In the ftce of facts that deserve condem
nation, Senator Mills is not one of these. Like
many other public men, he was disposed
to favor Cegls'.'atlon In the supposed inter
est of silver until experience convinced
him that he -w-a9 wrong. So convinced,
he has the manliness to declare his con
victions boldly and to present the rea
sons for them wWh a clearness and force
that show them to hi the.Tesult of delib
erate thought and not of mere political
expediency. The very fact that Senator
Mills has not been hitherto regarded as a
special champion of sound money must
give added weight to Wis letter to the
Democratic state committee or Texas.
Like Secretary Carlisle's speeches In
Kentucky, It will put the truth before
the people of that state in a manner to
command their thoughtful attention, and
honest thought is all that Is needed
anywhere to end the silver craze hnd
bring the people to the eupport of honest
money.
RED CLOVER.

"In the heart of the great desert of
