Some o our laboring men who receive a republican campaign document issued to show the rates of wages in this country and n England, Germany and other foreign countries, should make a few comparisons for themselves. Take, for instance, Ger many, a high tariff or protection country, and England, the country that is being used so extensively as a spook. These two countries of Europe furnish means of conv parison that should be valuable, if any such comparisons are valuable,for both are mon' archies, thickly settled and subject to about the same competition. Th? table of wages in this valuable document shows, however, that England pays coal miners an average of $1.23 per day, as against 80 cents in pro tected Germany. Other trades and occu pations are in the same proportion. Shoe makers in England earn on an average $6 a week, while under protection, in Germany one can only make $3.30 at this traile.Paint cr6 are paid in the two countries in the pro. portion of $9 to $4 ; carpenters earn $10.50 in England, while in Germany they only make $4 j bricklayers make $S.io a week in England and only $3.60 in Germany. So it goes through the list, while the ordinary necessities of life, such as meat, flour.sugai and potatoes, are from 15 to 25 per cent, higher in Germany than in England. Will anybody claim that the high tariff is re sponsible for this state of things ? If not why claim that the high tariff in this coun. try is responsible for our higher wages ? From every republican paper in South' ern Oregon we find indubitable proof that Col. Irish's speeches have had telling effect n the minds of the voters in that region Every republican exchange has its editorial columns filled with long and elaborate ar tides to break the effect of Mr. Irish's speeches. "Truth crushed to earth will rise again," The democrat who bolts his ticket th's vear will fee called a bolter two rears from now. In these days when republican pa. pers like the Orrgonian are lashing their voters into line and demanding that they shall vote the "straight ticket," it would be well for every democrat in Linn county to carefully consider what his duties are in the premises. Day by day the cheering nes reache tis from various parts of the county that democrats are closing up the lines and will march on to complete victory on the 4th of June. This is presidential year-md the bright outlook for President Cleveland's re-election inspires democrats everywhere to stand together in solid phalanx to e!eu the who'. countv ticket. Say, now, are Swift and Tanner republi can emissaries sent here by the leaders of lhat party to interfere in the politics of this state ? Isn't this outside interference an in suit to the republican voters of this state ? Are they authorized to come here to tel republican voters how to vote? Honor hright,now,right up to the mark. Letevery demociatic voter in the city turnout to hear Hen. Geo. II. Williamson next Monday evening. He is a man of ability and will present the republican side of the tariff with both skill and ingenuity. Democrats will always be the gainer where this question is discussed cooly .deliberately and with candor. The Eugene Journal very pointedly con demns mud-slinging and other "slangy" conduct in political campaigns and then in the very same article calls Governor Pen "oyer "a free trade crank." The Journal very innocently means that no one shall throw mud at it or its political associates, but it shall have liberty to use all the mud it chooses. Mr, Clay never supported as high pro tective duties as we now have, and doubt less he would be a strong opponent of the present tariff if alive. The most earnest tariff reformer of this day would be well content to have the duties reduced to Mr. Clay'i schedules. The number of Democralic state con ventions that have declared for Grover Cleveland corresponds exactly with the number of states in which conventions have been held. A careful estimate made by a democrat ic member of the ways and means com mittee leads to the following conclusion as to the result of the vote on the Mills bill : I believe the bill is stronger new than it ..r nd that it w ill nass substantially as it came from our committee. Of one thing you can be ceriain.either the House will pass a Din tnai w in uc w. tage to the democratic party and the coun try at large, or it will pass none at all. I believe,however,that we are strong enough t nnu this bill. There is a democratic majontv in the House of eleven, and we count on the votes of three rcpuolicans. Knute Selson.Lind.of Minneota,and Kitch, of New York, and three independents. Smith, of Wisconsin, Anderson, of Iowa, and Hopkins, of Virginia r As an offset we expect to lose the Randall democrats. Randall and Sowden.of Pennsylvania, and Koran, of Ohio, certainlv.and perhaps Mc Adoo, of New jersev ; Vance.of Connecti cut ; Wilkins.of Ohio ; Bliss, Camming. Merriman and Campbell, of New York. Even if all the doubtful democrats should vote with the opposition we shall still be ab:e to pass the bill. When it was first in troduced we expected to lese the votes of Ohio and California on the free-wool clause, but we now believe both the Ohio and California democrats will vote for our wool schedule." The Mills bill makes a total reduction of $;S,ooo,ooo of the surplus revenue coming into the treasury, $54,000,000 being taken from the tariff and $24,000,000 from inter nal revenue. It adds salt, wool, heinp.jute. tin plate, flax and some other articles to the non-dutiable or free list. The average tariff duty now upon all dutiable goods is 47 per cent, and the Mills bill reduces it to 40 percent. Will the people who contmu ally shriek "free trade" point out where the free trade comes in except upon the art!. cles placed on the free list. The Orcgonian after being flatly told by Mr. Uush, Chairman of the State Demo cratic Committee, that no money has been sent from the East here to belp the demo crats,then dodges off into another line and says : It may shrewdly be suspected that the administration's money would not be used through the state central commitce, but would be distributed throughout the state by confidential agents, who are known to be going through every countv. These things are done most effectively by ignor ing the organized machinery and' getting as near to the corruptible voter as possible. The Orcgonian seems to speak from age and expedience in such business, and con cludes that as that is the way republican leaders have always managed their corrup tion fund, democrats would do likewise. A gentleman who understands party tactics in this state informed the writer yesterday that "at this moment" Dolph emissaries are at work In Josephine, Ben ton and every other close counties in the state, and this cry of the Oregonian is the old one of "stop thief." 1 m I hay just received an invoice of the celcbrutid Thompson Glove Fitting Corset, one of the oldest arc! io.t reliable make, known.

The ereat majority of Am-rirn differ from the war tariff, but on none is the load SO heavv as on the farmer. The hnfi ciaries of the tariff feed and grow fat off him. The hizh duties do kim no coed. for he sells his wheatatanrice determined in the markets of Liverpool. An import tax of $1 a bushel on wheat would profit the California farmer not one cent. The world's demand reuulates his nriri-s inev. orably. Without any protection from the tariff, the farmer is systematicly fleeced by the shears of every protected industry. He Is plundered under the guise of law. If the farmers of the land reallv knew hn large a share of their incomes is taken from them in this wav, thev would at once be up in organized rebellion to do battle at tne pons.

Altosether more than copies have been taken in the Senate, and neany 150,000 in the House, with the list sun incomplete, ilr.
