l WASH1.N0I0N MMIETY.
The Washington correspondent of
the Oregonian has this to say of Con
gresfumn's Tongue's daughter, Miss
Tongue, w ho Is with him at the cap!
tal this winter.
No one In Washington enjoys the
Boeietyjof the capltpl city more, or is
more warmly welcomed within its
circles, than Is Miss Mary Tongue,
daughter of Rcpresentaiive Tongue,
ol Oregon. Tliia is Miss Tongue's
second, winter here, ami, she with her
many charms and u inning manner,
has established herself firmly in tne
hearts of her Washington friends,
When she first came to Washington
at the begroning of the last session of
congress, Miss Tongue formed a large
uumlier of friends, with whom she
became a favorite, and, while Wash
ington changes suddenly and often,
she experienced no difficulty In re
new ing old acquaintances and mak
ing scores of new ones when she re,
turned this winter. Many of the
leading fundi' ns of the season so far
have found Miss Tongue among the
favored few, ami every presidential
reception has found her surrounded
bv hoets of admiring friends. One
of her clow st friends Is Mrs. William
F. Aldrich, of Alabama, who on
numerous occasions has entertained
Miss Tongue as her guest. Aside
from the larger functions, Miss
Tongue has been seer.il times of the
receiving purty at private receptions,
As the Oregon delegation is com
posed almost wholly of bachelors,
Representative Tongue being the
only married man. it does not cut
very much of a figure in social life
this winter. Were it not for Miss
Tongue, they would not be heard of
very much, although Representative
Moody IhWcs grent Interest In the
different social fuui'tiom, and has
been invited to many during the sea
son, and attends whenever he has
the time. Neither of the senators
lakes much interest in these social
fnnctions, and the absence of Mrs
Tongne from the city prevents Mr,
Tongue I mm goii'g out very much,
Th.? senators and representatives,
l.owever, go to the White House re
ceptions, as it is rtally necessary on
account of their olhVial positions,
The setiatt-rs also attend state dinners
st the Whito House. Mr. Moody
i.erives a great deal of enjoyment
from the social side of the Washing,
ton life, much more than any other
member of the Origon delegation.
When the others go out.lt is more a
m ittt r of duty than pleasure.

Hoke Smith, of Ueorgla, puts the
blsnie forithe Kentucky tumult just
where it belong. "When we come
to li ok at the state of semi-revolution
iliMt eii.;ts In Kentucky we cannot
escape the conclusion that Uoebel and
his confederates aro responsible for
it." This is the judgment of one of
the foremost lHuioerals in the South
It is the verdict of a man who was
Secretary of the Interior In the m
cond Cabinet of Present Cleveland
Ex-Ss'relary Smith voices the opion-
ion of every sano per-!' bi the
Unit! Slates, IVmocratic, Populist
nd Rcpuhlicitn.
The purpose of docliel's confeder-
iles to steal the state was plain jfrom
the first. They stole the nomination
for him, as was charged by the anti-
Umbel Democrats at the lime, and as
was tacitly acknow lcdl by some of
the Uoebel men, lor, f i-S-cretary
Smith reminds his fellow -D.-mocrats,
UoeU' was the weakext of the three
aspirants In the Is-tuix ratio con ven
tion, and, by combining with the
.text weakest man, and "by turning
out 2(52 delegates, he succeeded in
uggling through his own nomina
tion." A M'Umatic iffort was
wade, through the law which be put
on the statute book to meet Jut such
a case aa this, to steal the election at
the polla. being beaten at Uie ballot-box,
and beaJen In the returning
boards which were packed by Li
representatives, be next appealed to
the Legislature which was controlled
by bis confederates, and there the
will of the people was defied and a
verdict was given in bis favor.
All of this criminality and anarchy
In Kentucky was lamentable, but
sane persons will have no difficulty in
pointing out the individuals who are
accountable lor it- Such Southern
Democratic papers as the Chattanooga
Times, the Memphis Commercial
Anneal, the Atlanta Journal and
many others Lave, since the publics
tln of the returns in November
which showed Ooebel's defeat, been
predicting the lawlessness w hiili the
Gis belites have recently been perpe
trating, and iutimating that crime
and anarchy would result from it
This ia costly piece of criminality
for Kentucky. For the gratification
of the ambition ofa handful of politi
cal brigands, aided. and abetted by a
few resnectable newsDauera like the
Louisville Courier-Journal, which de
nounced Uoebel and all bis works
at the time the Uoebel law was pass
ed, but which weakly got over on
his side in the recent election, a stain
has been cast on the name of that
which a score of years of orderly
government will net wipe out
Qlobe-Democrat.

The Portland New Age aske for
the renomination of Congressman
Tongue at the hands of the eltctors
of the First District. On that sub
ject the paper thus reasons:
Congressman Tongue is now serv
ing the period ot bis second term in
the national body of law-makers
His service baa throughout both
terms been marked with signal abili
ty and unquestionable faithfulness to
the interests of bis constituents. His
alertness and persistence in behalf of
the general Interests of Oregon have
on all occasions of publio Importance
secured for him pronounced commen
dation from the people and the press
of the state. He has been fair and
impartial in every official act and is
regarded In the house of representa
tives as one of its most sincere, able
and conscientious members. In Ore
gon he is too well known as a man
of integrtty, honor and sterling abi
lity to require praise of his personal
qualities in these columns.
Without decrying a single virtue
bis competitors lor the congressional
nomination this year may possess,
for they are all gentlemen of more
or less ability and good reputation,
the New Age believes it is in har
mony with public sentiment in this
state when it expresses belief that
Hon, Thomas U. Tongue should bo
returned to congress again this year
to enable him to pursue to comple
tion, as no other man can at this
time, the great bulk of good work he
has so excellently begun in tiehalf t f
the substantial progress of this com
monwealth, and particularly to en
able him to finish bis well-directed
effort looking to public improve
ments in bis district, inaugurated al
the present session of congress under
conditions of great embarrassment
produced by the exigencies of war
and the consequent depletion of the
public treasury. Suppose we make
it purely business proposition this
time and send Congressman Tongue
back to his great task in Washing

The citizens of Crook county,
Piineville, have strongly stated their
opposition to the Foster bill that
proposes to lesse the grazing lands
of the inland empere in the following
whereases and resolution:
whereas, There is now pend
ing Is-fore congress a measure hav
ing in view the leasing to private in
dividuals and local corporations all
the pub'ic lands in the United State,
lying west of the 99th meridian; and
whereas, Said bill withdraws
from settlement and threatens stI
ously to check the future develop
ment of the west; and
whereas, Such a measure would
have an undoubted tendency to con
centrate the control of large tracts of
what ia now public domain in hands
of a few individuals; and
wheheas, The tendency ol the
measure now pending is to give an
undue power in the distribution of
such lands Into the hand-i of one in
dividual, viz: the secretary of agri
culture; and
whereas, The said measure is
in direct conflict and opposition to
the American system of providing
hornet for it citizens; and
whereas, The said measure is
a menace to the welfare of its inha
bitants of the territory thereby af
fected and Is fraught with disaster to
the agjarian population of such terri
tory, therefore be it.

protest against the enactment Into

development of the west, and di
rectly contrary to the American po

mends that the President immediate
ly substitute civil fur military
authority wherever it can be done
safely, and it is understood he will
soon do this in a formal proclamation
announcing a policy already iu force
and woikiug admirably ii certain of
the islands. The commissioners re
commend that as soon as insular
finances permit, public education
should be promptly. established, and
when established be free to all. All
political considerations should be
elimiaated in the making of appoint
men's for service in the islands. On
this point the commissioners are
most emphatic. Tariff differences
are so fundamental and irreconcilable
that they recommend that for the
present there be no attempt to alter
the present tariff of the islands, un
der which an ever-increasing revenue
is pouring into our treasury for use
in defraying operations there.
The form of governwent deemed
beet by the commission Is a territor
ial form with an administration ap
poiuted by the President, the inhabi
tants having the largest measure of
home rule in local affairs and electing
members cf thu lower House of the
Insular legislature, and the provinces
being administered much as on Mies
are administered in a territory in
this country. The suffrage should
be guarded by an educational or
property qualification, or both. The
form of government suggested iu the
ma n is like that given to Louisiana
by Thomas JeJTcrson.
That the tusk w ill be difficult the
commissioners concede, out not as
difficult as is imagined, for they hold
that the Filipinos are promising
material, that they possess admirable
personal and domestic virtues and
are naturally peaceful, docile anc
defererntial to constituted authority.

ments from their ranks would aid us

STATE l'KESS.
The meeting of the republican edi
tors at Portland was productive of
good, individually and for the pf.rty
they represent. The organization
was unanimous in the opinion that
republican newspaiiers were deserv
ing of and should receive ti e patron
age of the party when in p iwcr. A
legitimate republican ptiper stands
by its party through thick and thin
without taxing individual candidates
giving Hu m p cial support without
pay. Such newspapers never sell
their opinions. It is fair and square
business for every legitimate news
paper to charge for announcements,
publishing of tickets, etc, which are
usually paid for by the local central
committee, but this is usually a very
small amount. And the republican
newspapers are right when'lhey ask
for the federal patronage, national
slate and county. Any reptiblicai
officer who will not sward this to
his party pa;ers has no conception
of justice, and his p'aivi is in the
ranks of the privates where he should
get a few lessons in party ethio be
fore asking for another promotion.
