Tlie political policy of tho Kxtkrpkiss w ill be along the same lines in the future that it has followed in the past, tempered, however, by experience and broadened, we hope, by contact with tho throbbing brain and manly, gen erous heart of the Oregon press. We have made a marked chance in the typographical and mechanical ap pcarance and make-up of the Entsb-i-bisk, which, wo trust, will meet the approbation of its readers, besides we have also enlarged it to standard .even column size.

The assumption that the people of this country would accept " eold in payment of debts even if its -J tender function were withdrawn by eminent is purely hypothetical, r of the Oregonian does not her they would or would not . payment of debts at its pre gal tender value. It would cer y depreciate in yatue in this try. No single nation can -by ad- rse legislation deljase a metal which -U reeogtmeJ by alt other nations money of ultimate payment.

Gold possesses 110 magical properties in itself. Money is purely a creation of j man. Cold is used as a money metal j because of its jieeuliar adaptability or j that purpose. Neither God nor Nature j made it money . We read in an ancient j book, of some authority in these days . even anionc gold-bugs, that gold was once made into an image and wor shipped as a god, but whether it was unto the image or the gold of which it was composed that those primitive peo ple rendered their ignoiant homage, we i do not presume to say.

It is probably afe to nay that tho house is In touch with tho president ou thin sub j ievt. but tho senate will never permit 1 to the country, and tho American poo nle will want to first seriously consider the so-called Haltinioro plan before pass ing any favorable legislation. Tho scheme may to feasible, but there are certain features which appear visionary, besides it svjuints strongly in tho direc tion of the old state bank system of odious memory. Taken as a whole the message is a fairly creditable state paper, but it boars only a few of the strong characteristics of its author. Au ks V.

We publish in another cjlmnn a vc i?ry rp:iil:dile article on "Simile-lax vs Wealth." The writer is one of the ablest single-tax advocates in Toik county, and whatever ho has to fay on the subject is always expressed with vitror and intelligence. The Enteb- tbisi!

We wish to make our paper an open court wherein can be heard the opj-osing aliments on questions of local and i public moment.
