Th paper on th llver question pre sented In the senate of th Vnlted State last December by Mr. Stewart were cr dered to be printed, and It appears that copies ar being distributed widely. The author of th paper have tried to show that great injury baa been don to tlx trad and manufacture of England by adherence to the cold standard In that country whit th price of silver bullion was railing: that gold wages have not fallen te England nor silver wage risen In China or other Uvr ba.is countries: and that unless sorn international agree ment (in regard to silver) is come to at nc th result must be th ruin of many British Industrie and th throwing out f employment of many thousands of British workmen. Evidently Senator Stewart wished It to b believed that similar trouble menace th people of the raited States unless they adopt what be absurdly calls "bimetallism." when every sensible man knows that It would be silver monometallism. The argument is that the wage of workers In th countries which are on the basis of stiver monometallism are no ' higher nominally than they would be It the wages were paid in gold at the rate of ooe grain of gold for every sixteen aunoea of silver in the silver coin. But as the employers of labor can buy about thirty ounces of silver with on ounce I gold tae actual oost of labor In th silver countries Is but little more than aalf of what it would be if the gold standard wer th nil there, or the cost f labor Is nearly twice as much In th gold standard countries as It would be If they wer on the free silver basis. Thss means. If It mvans anything, that m order to prevent destructive compe tition by the products of cheap Asiatic tabor the value of wages paid in the CnJred States must be reduced one-half. It is proposed to accomplish this under the sorry and transparent mask of a drop to the free ilvr basts, after which the wsge earners ar? to be paid the same number of dollars per week or month as now, while each of these dol lars will have only half the buying power f a dollar in gold, as is the case in the silver standard countries. But why not drop that thin mask and propose a hori zontal reduction of all th wage rolls in the United Slates while retaining the gold standard? That would not be a Jot the worse for the wage earner. By the latter arrangement he would gt Just as much pay for his dally toil as the free sllverltes scheme would give him, the "pay" being reekomd In the quantity of food, fuel, clothing and other neces saries and comforts of life which have to be bought by the toiler with his wag"s for himself and family. And it would have advantage for the toller over the scheme advocated by Stewart and the other silver extremists that It would not diminish the demand for labor by cutting in two the working power of the money capital at the comamnd of the employer. This proposed drop to the free silver basis for the purpose of cheapening the wages of the toiler while nominally pay ing him the same per da:, week or month is a cheat, a delusion and on In tel ded si. are. It is a pitfall dug for th feet of the wage earners, and all the more wicked a It Is dug by those who pretend to be their friends. X drop to the free silver ba.is, which Is the object . and aim of the bimetallic movement (-.nd party, would do the wage earners ot thv United States much more harm than they could suffer by the cutting down of th-Ir wage one-half whll retaining the pres ent standard of currency values. So they ought to ask for the latter, If they want a change which will enable them to coniprte with cheap Asiatic labor. But they should not want either, and the way to avoid it is again to d.clarc for the Republican party of sufliclent protection to home industry to ehut out this competition Instead of paup-rlzlng ourselves in the effort to meet It under Democratic free trade. The communication In yesterday's issue signed "Subscriber." urging the claims of Nehalem people for assistance In ob taining a better road to Astoria, Is well worthy the careful consideration of every merchant in the city. It is plainly 'evident, from the statements mad-1 from time to time, that the farmers of the Walluski and the citizens of Nehal -m are doing all they can to secure pasabl? roads to the county seat, and It is hardly necessary to point out the advantag-s that would accrue to the city from good roads. A very large amount of trade Is lost to Astoria every year becuase of the miserable county roads. It would well repay the merchants of ths city If they should pay half the cost of con structing two or three main roads to the eounfry district, and there is no oth"r one thing that would so develop the wealth of Clatsop county and open the way to Immigration here of a high clam of farmers as the building of first-class roads. Hundreds of acres of land, now lying Idle, could be mail." pro duotlve and profitable alike to th farmer ami merchant If the mean ot cheap ttansportadon to market was provided At a mere matter of eold-blixMl lil nee and elf-prottvtlon the city ahould aid in thee enterprise and contribute liberally for RMod roa.ls. Titer should 1m no uncertain tone In the cra ting of the roan to th country, and the lint ha now arrived whvei delay are dan gerous. Competition I on every hand, and only those aavtlona of country which can keep abreast of the time can hope to be u,osful. A wealthy Japanc1 gentleman ho cam to this country a fvw week ago to atmty It civilisation ha vn wic lynch ing, watched a football game, attended a meeting of the Chicago city cotincll, wltnresed an afternoon elon of the Ken tucky legislature, and ha started back ro Japan. General Algvr frankly admit that he doe not expect to h nomlttaled for president at the St. Lout convention n. xt June. Ill system I fully braced, how tr. to atand the shock In ca the nomination tnke him accidentally. In New Mexico its per cent of the population attend church, while in Wis consin only S per cent, of th Inhabitant ar church goers. Rut perhap the Now Mexican nl to go to church won I than the Wtcvnalnltea do. There Is some fonudatlon for the rumor that England I about to withdraw from Egypt. England will withdraw front Egypt as long a there is anything worth withdrawing. from a Cuban point of vi.w the Bar IhoKil statue of Liberty la wry much out of place in New York harbor. There ia only one presldmtial boom In Mexico. It belongs to General Dlax. All others are cheap Imitation. UNION HOSE CO. NO t On Friday night at Suomi Hall in l'n lontown. Messrs. Curtis, Stockton, Qreen and RiuVhaigh organised Union Hone Co. No. 4. There was a very large and enthusiastic attendance, much Inter eat being taken in th proceedings. Mr. Curtis took charge of the meeting and th following oliioers were elected: President. P. J. Shistad. Secretary, W. Panttaja. Treasurer. A mi red Karl Foreman. Andrew Holm. Ptrst Assitant, Paral A ho. Second Assuunt, F. Ovinia. The city expoct to have watr connec tion with i'ntomown within thirty nay and with the onranu-u: n oi Union llnse Co. No. i. U"n;ontown will for the first time have tire protection. It Is a noted fact that this end of the city has ben too long ntgleoted. and the voter of Un lontown have shown their fe)ings through th polls, but their dVnianda have at last been granted, thanks to cer tain members of the city council. It Is hoped that a shelter will be provided for the hose cart. In th Immediate futjre. and then the older companies must of necessity look out for their taurels.

The dispatches published In the Orc gonlan of the 3th and 21st, from Nw York and San Francisco, stating that Chauneey M. Uepew and Cornelius Van derbllt are to make a trip to San Fran cisco via New Orleans, no doubt chron icle the outcome of plans which have be-n under consideration for several months by which the Vandrrhllta hope to gain control of the Union and C-n-tral Pacific Railroad properties. The re organlatlon of those companies must take place soon and the Vanderhllt are beyond question In better position to handle those properties than any other railroad people In the country. Further more, these two properties are worth more to the Vanderbllts than anyone Ise as a glance at the railroad map will evidence. As was outlined In the Astorian sev eral months ao. It Is not improbable that some of the Vaniierbtlts, tog'tnr with Russ.H Sag.-. J. p. Morgan and C. P. Huntlnifton. are among those compos ing the syndicate which It is understood on good authority Is b hind Mr. Ham mond In the Astoria and Columbia River Railroad sch'-me. H ne-d no dmioniira tlon to prove the reasonableness of th supposition. -That Vanderhllt hlmsHf would give any p-rsonal attention to the detalU of so small an enterprise as 'he Astoria roa'l. Is har'ily possible. It Is hoped, however, by i Lose who are most int-rwted In the Project h re, that possi bly he may rind It convenient via the nor thern route and Take a lock at this coun try, as his Interests In the future will lie very largely )n this direction, even If he clo-s not acquire the I'nion and Central Pacific line. His own lln , the Chicago and Northwestern, by Its Black Hills extension, is already.. within a few hundred miles of Boise City, which lat ter point will In all probability, be the Eastern terminus, in the not distant fu ture, of the extension of Hammond's Oregon Central and Eastern line. PRESIDENT CLEVELAND Purchases Historic Real Estate Near White Plains, N. Y. New York, March 21. In the old town of Eastcheeter President Cleveland and William 8. Blsn-11, his old law partner and lately postmaster general, have been investing In real estate. Thoy have bought what Is known as the Fowler place, on which was located the Juon house, at the corner of the Klngsbrldge and White Plains road, In which George Washington passed a night prior to the battle of White Plains. During a heavy windstorm this old house was blown down, and the remains of It were carried away by the old In habitants as relics. It was from this house that Washington, before leaking General Heath, who had command of that division of the American army, marched up from the causeway at Throggs' Neck and made his way up the old Boston road and across to Chatterton hill. Washington, before leaving, Is said to have kissed Mrs. Guyon good--by, and her husband playfully remarked: "Now, my dear, never wash your face again." Taken altogether, this acquisition to the president's real belongings is one of the most famous historical spots about New York. There is also located upon it the remains of an old Indian fort.

Should remember to use only two-thirds as much Cotto lene as they formerly used of lard or butter. With two thirds the quantity they will get better results at less cost than it is possible to get with lard or butter. When Cotto lene is used for frying articles that are to be immersed, a bit of bread should be drop ped into it to ascertain if it is at the right heat. When the bread browns in half a minute the Cottolene is ready. Never let Cottolene get hot enough to smoke. Tmm luroeetsf Pm I Th. frrl m iIimI I bs sold whr III Ctl..!iit la put m.
