The grain bag traffic on the Pacific coast last year amounted to 33,000,000 bags, and the Indications now are that 2,000,000 more will be required for the wheat crop tins season. The prospect for a large wheat yield never was better. The entire bag capacity of the California Jute Mill Com pany is about 1,250,000 per year, and not more than this number can be produced by L .1-..UI- -Lift nrienn tnrCf lit San QUCU- MIC UUUUIC Bill.. ! tov'. tin. The great bulk of these goods.or over V . U nnnul ft-AITl 30,000,000 nags, comes iu Pnlrntm Portland Journal of Commerce. So, according to this statement which mnv hi- relied on. 12.1:00,000 of the sacks necessary to handle ihe farmers grain on the Pacific Coast this year comes from Cal cutta. The duty on these sacks is 40 per cent of their cost at place of purchase, that U.fhr everv S100 worth of sacks imported the importer has to pay $40 duty. This is added to the nrice of the sacks when sold tn the farmer. Then how much duty do the fanners of the Pacific Coast have to n.-iv on the I2.coo.ooo sacks f That depends upon their cost abroad. If they cost 5 cents a piece the entire cost would De $1,025,000, and 10 ner cent of this amount woutd be the duty or tax which the fanners would have to pay .which would be $650,000. Let farmers reflect what a burden this enor mou tax is, and then say whether they would have a reduction ot taxation or not ti,. n,-r,, ,,;., uivii a new postmaster hac been appointed for Oregon City .leaving O'Dcll, of Salcm.the only rcpuoncaii post master in office in the state.

No republican presi dent would have such a broad and liberal policy. Judge Edson, one of the most prominent republicans of Southern Indiana and a can- didate for the Supreme Judgeship before the recent convention, replying to expres sions of regret concerning his defeat,sald "I am not to be condoled with.but rather to be congratulated upon my defeat after General Hovev was nominated for Oovern or by the convention. Hovcy's candidacy makes the canvass in Indiana a defensive one on the part of the republicans instead of an offensive one. A you must have been aware, I went before the republican convention a6 a candidate for Supreme Judge.for the purpose of compelling Bruce Carr, Auditor of the state.and the 'slick six gang of Indianapolis to show their hands. They were under certain pledges to me, be- cause I held the casting vote of this district, which made the delegation to Chicago solid for Harrison. . - The convention has lost the state.and probably the National republican ticket." Probably the most unique petition ever filed In the House in favor of additional protection to America? industries was re ceived the other day from Representative Anderson, of Iowa. It reads as follows "Being profoundly impressed with the gravity of the occasion and the magnitude of the matter at issue,in that all my worldly possessions are invested in two dozen hens, and realizing that there should be no dis crimination in regard to the protection of American industrles.and being advised that there were some i6,c 00,000 dozens of eggs imported into the United States in the year 1887, therefore I would respectfully pray vour honorable body to pass a law to pro tect my interest against the infernal activ Ity of the pauper hens of Europe. Your most obedient servant, T. II. B. Millen Cambria, la." Articles of incorporation organizing the Seattle and Southern railroad company were filed with the County Clerkat Seattle Saturday. The object of this organization is to build a railroad from Portland to Seattle. It is said to be simply another name for the Southern Pacific. A contract has been entered Into by the company with the Moss Boy Iron & Steel Co. to make 30,000 tons of steel rails. Delivery of rails to commence July 1st next and end Jan. 1st, 1890, I nt tl,i. farmers of Linn countv reflect upon the fact that the duty levied by the tariff laws upon the sacks necessary to handle their grain this year will amount to between $25,000, and !p3o,ooo. 1 111s is 1 sheer imposition as the government need not the money. The democratic party i the party of pro tection, of protection to Americans instead of Englishmen. The war tariff and the shipping laws have destroyed the Ameri can ocean-carrying trade and laid us under tribute to England for the carrying of our products to markets for $2oo,c jo.oooayear. Down with the system of protection to Englishmen. Let us give Americans a fighting chance. The river and harbor bill became a law without the signature of President Cleve land. The President says that it contained Items which he could not approve, yet the bill as a w hole was of such vast importance to the country at large that he would not be justified in vetoing it. The tariff demand of the Republican platform is for "such revision of the tariff laws as will tend to check Imports of such articles as are produced by our people," J h! Is not a call to stand by protection as it now exists, but a demand for still more ultra-protection, amounting to prohibition Oregon Slate Fair !
