HOW MUCH PROTRl'TlfK,
Dr. Watts spoke t. a slim crctvJ at the
Court House last night. He advanced
nothing new on the tariff except this : He
said republicans favored a tariff schedule
sa arranged that the duty imposed upon
imported goods should be just high enough
to equal the difference between the cost of
labor in this country and in Europe. The
Dr. is very much in error in stating the po
sition of his party. He states the democrat
ic position exactly. Let us put the matter
to a test: Democrats want a reduction of
the tariff of 30 per cent on woolen goods.
Republicans oppose. By reference to the
First Annual Report of the Commissioner
of Labor for 1S86, page 124, we find that the
labor cost of making a pair of blankets in
New Jersey, weight 5 pounds, was 14 per
cent of the entire cost of the blankets, or 35
cents. The duty under eur present law on
apairof blankets just like the above named
would be 70 per cent or $1.79. In other
words, the duty imposed upon this pair of
blankets is more than five times the entire
amount paid for labor in making them
Again, referring to the same document.page
102. The labor cost of mining a ton of bi
tuminous coal In Ohio is 47 cents, and, the
tariff duty upon the same kind is 75 cents
per ton. The duty being more than the
entire labor cost of mining theco?!. Again
page 122, same authority shows that in
Pennsylvania the labor cost of making one
yard of cassimere, weighing 16 ounces, was
23 cents, while the duty upon the same Is
$9 cents. So that it is plain to be seen that
our present tariff laws give five times at
much protection as Dr. Watts says his par
ty asks for. The democratic party would
gladly give all the protection which the Dr.
says his party favors, and would then add
10 per cent to it and be more than satisfied.
i, n,.mihli-an editors at the North
who in advance of the Louisiana election
n.mnlmilv counted the whole number
of adult male negroes in the State as Re
publican voles, and after the election de
nounced the result as fraudulent because
the Republican vote fell short of their es
i.nflt. wnuld do well to read what is said
on this subject by the New Orleans Pro-
press, a newspaper contracted iiy a coiurcu
man in the interest of his race. "Perhaps
the most gratifying result of the election,
" savs the Pivgms, " is the breaking up of
the "color line." It says that outside of
New Orleans and a few of the lower par
ishes, ' thousands of colored voters, re
membering the just, fair, impartial, ana
peaceful administrated of Gen. Nicholls.
rallied around his standard and joyfu'ly
cast their ballots for him. It declares that
this political revolution was so complete tast
hereafter it will be impossible tor any one
to marshal the colored voters solidly under
the Republican banner again, and it ex
niisRPsK treat satisfaction that "the color
ed people of Louisiana have at lust freed
themselves from political servuuue.
The New Orleans Item, a Republican
paper published by white men, lams inc
same strain, declaring that "a number of
the better sort o intelligent and independ
ent negroes boldly proclaimed themselves
Democrats and in favor of the election of
Gen. Nicholls from the beginning."
It is now announced upon what seems
to be good authority that the republican
members of the ways and means commit-
tee have decided that they cannot play the
dog in the manger role any longer with
honor to themselves on the tariff question,
and that they will present a bill for the re
duction of taxation through Congressman
McKinley, some time after the general de
bate closes and before the Mills bill is tak
en up for discussion in detail. The bill, it
is said, has been agreed to by all the repub
lican members of the committee, except
Judge Kclley. It proposes a reduction of
half the duty on sugar, a repeal of all the
taxes on tobacco, and upon alcohol used in
thearts.and the adoption of a wool schedule
agreed upan by the wool convention. It
is claimed the total reduction of revenue
effected by this bill will he not far from
$65,000,000. The significant thing about
the proposed bill is that the republicans
have decided that they cannot go to the
country in the coming presidential contest
n a record of opposition to all reduction
of taxation while the surplus in the treas
ury is steadily mounting up.
The democratic politicians who have
been reported to be opposed to Mr. Cleve
land have ceased to exist so far ns appear
ances art concerned. They have probably
gone with th states that our republican
friends announced would never endorse
the president. Doth exlsteJ principally in
the Imagination of the republican who hop
ed that the president w ould not be nomlnat
ed.and that is mighty poor place to gather
reliable Information.
Voters of Oregon should not forget the
great service done the Pacific Coast by
Cleveland's administration in securing the
making of the Chinese treaty, and the fact
that its ratification crowns the achievement
of this Administration that is the mostim
pntant in its relations to American indus
try ,and to the integrity and progress of our
civilization. The party whose principles
and devotion to them have delivered us
from the Asiatic plague has acquired a hold
on the esteem of the American people that
will not be weakened.
When the republican managers send
out such worn-out broken down hacks as
Applegate, Geo.L.Woodsand some others
who are attempting to inflict their rot up
on along suffering people, we are not sur
prised that many decent republicans stsnd
around and complain.

A curious result of the discussion of the
wool tariff is noted in Eastern Oregon. It
is said that cattle men, wishing to annihilate
the sheep of the country and Kave the
range for their cattle herds, will vote for
the democratic policy of free wool. The
question for the general voter is whether

Both Gresham and Harrison are in hvd
