Last week the provision of the tariff bill placing salt on the fiee list was i-p befo e Congress for cor.i'deralion. Here was a fine opportunity to test the sincerity of n-n who profers such tender care and solici.ci'e for the interest-, of farmers and dairymen. As soon as the clause was read pu.Mng t'.iat article on the free list.Buir ,ugh of Michi gan, republican.was on his feet with a mo tion to strike out the clause. The motion was supported by the republicans, but was voted down by the democrats. During .he discussion of the motion Mr. Whiting, of Michigan, a democrat, and a manufacturer oi salt on a large scale,earnes-lv suppo.Vd the move for putting salt on the fre; li t, urging that salt was abundantly able to stand alone. Here were two tests. A test of the sincerity of the republican pro-'e-sfon of care for the interest o! the farmt They could give him cheap salt, but bei ng put in the scales the membeisof that par y were found wanting. The other test was i.he sincerity of democrats in their tariff reform movement in the interest of the consum ing classes. They united as one man to givt the people cheap salt, and Mr. W'h' mgsup' parted the move to keep faith with the "people. And so it is in every aspec: of the case. The democrats in Congress are with the people, and the -cpublicans in that bo dy are with the protce'ed monopolies f the country. Mr. hiMng had the oppor tunity to exemplyfy the true meaning of American political manhood, and he did it manfully and patriotically. Such is the difference between a man who labors in the interest of the whole mass of the peo ple,and one devoted to the interests of the few at the expense of the many. There is a w ide difference between the the evchrnge of p-oducts and selling them.

Yesterday's Orcgonian contains a die patch giving an account of a meeting of the Amalgamated Association of iron and steel workers at Pittsburg, Pa., in which that body passed a resolution declaring that . they are mcst emphatically opposed to any reduction of the present tariff on the ground that a protective tariff affords good wages to 'aboring men. The utter selfishness and brazen check of these manufacturing gentry may be better understood by the reader when informed that these self same manufacturers made an order within the last two weeks reducing the wages of all their workmen ten per cent. Does this look like they were very anxious that their laborers should have good wages ? Why is it that these protected monopolists rush in, at everv proposition to reduce the war tariff, and ("cclare In the most emphatic way their opposition to the movement ? Are they candid when they declare that they oppose tariff reform on the ground that it will lower the wages of their work men ? No, they are hypocrites, as every person of observation must know.for in the tame breath which they expend in de nouncing tariff reform as detrimental to the intc-ests of labcr.thcy promulgate their lordly decrees reducing the wages of their own workmen in order to make their own pockets more plethoric. How long will the laboring man.fhe farmer,the mechanic, the merchantjthe professional Mian be gull cd and cajoled by this pha. isaical pretense of the pr Mcctcd monopolisms of the coun try ? The mills of the gods grind slowly, but they grind exceedingly fine. JMtOTKCTIUN, THK r.NKMY OF WAUFS Statistics, whether taken in mass or in detail, establish the fact thus admitted so clearly, that none but thoroughly dishon est advocates of protection pretend any longer to dispute it. The value of produc tion per hand, In all the combined metal andtextile Industries, in iS&,wavn Amer. ica, $1,14, and In England.only 57S0.TIHIS the value of each American workman to Ills employer was 1 16 per cenc greater than the value of each Englishman ; yet the ut most claim which can be made as to differ ence In wages is that made by Scnatrr Chace, to-wit, 62 percent. It is well known .that the real difference does not exceed 45 per cent. Hut in r.ny case.it is certain that the American employer, after paying 50 per cent higher wages, is still 50 per cent better off, in the labor item, than his Eng lish competitor.- Thomas (J.

We wish '.o deviate ro:n that rule and make the fallow ing state ments, knowing that they will be appre ciated by all lovers of truth ard justice. W are here in business for the purpose of making money and we realize that in ordei to accomplish that object we must have a continuance of our large patronage. Furt'.i ermore we know that this can be assured only bv extreme effort on our part and we w ish to state that we will at all times gl.-e vou first-class goods at prices as low or low er than any house in Albany and in ad dition allow you 5 per cent off on all cash pu chases.
