TAX " The Herald of Sunday treated its readers' to a real article on the tariff question. We are glad to see this. The people have a right to know what the views of newspa pers are on such all absorbing questions and the reasins that sustain these views. It quotes liberally from the New York Press to show that manufactured goods are as cheap and, in many cases, cheaper in Eng land than in the United States. It does this for the purpose of meeting the demand made by the democratic party for cheaper clothing and other necessaries of life. It says a common suit of clothes in England costs $7.50 and the same here. An all wool $10 suit of American manufacture costs just the same in England. It says also that all knit goods, especially jerseys and the common grades of stockings and socks, are cheaper there than here. And that the price of blankets here and in Eng land are pract'cally the same. We do not admit the correctness of these prices, for if they are true foreign woolen goods cou'd not be imported into this country at all. How could an importer import from Eng land a suit of clothes that cost him $7.50, then pay the duty of $4.50 and the .-eight besides, and then sell it in compeUtl i with a similar suit of American make th.-t costs $7.50. It cannot be done. Neverthe less last year there were Imported over tony-two million dollars wor.h 01 woolen goods upon which, besides the fre'ght, an aggregate duty of mo.-e than twenty-n'ne million dollars had to be paid. These goad-, of wool, wholly or 'n part, were sold in competition with the home product.a thing that could not, nor would not. be done if they cost as much in England as they do nere. But .or the sake of the argument out ot which truth should come. we will ad mil that the Herald's prices are true. Then wny the necessity of a duly at all on such . goods ? The whole superstructure of that "monstrous bundle of ii.iquities and ah surdities called the tariff law," as the Or' fonian calls it, Is based upon the idea that foreign goods are made much cheaper than our own.and the tariff is laid expressly for the purpose of compelling an increase in the price of the foreign article when placed upon our markets, in order that out home manufacturer may compete with the for eign article. But if the foreign article cost as much in the foreign country as our home article does, then of course no protection is needed at all. So that which ever horn of the dilemma the Hercld chooses to take, it will find Itself in an Inextricable snarl. Its own statement of facts proves that there Is no necessity for any duty upon the articles namca. Mr Blaine calls a 47 percent war tariff an "old landmark" which the Democrats are seeking to remove. The old landmark was a tariff of from 8 to 25 per cent. This satis.ied the fathers of ths American sys tem and the projectors of "infant indust ries" for a period of more than fifty years. The original Morrill war tariff was only 36 percent. The Democratic party is simply going back a step towards the "old landmarks." Four years ago the Republicans ra'seJ the same cry as now, that Pe.110cral.ic suc cess would mean a reduciion In wages and ruin to business. The result has been tHt wages have been higher, work more con stant and business more prosperous than for twelve years before. In 187: a Republican House, preo'ded over by James G. Blaine as Speaker, voted to put both salt and coal on the free lis; . Eugene Hale and other Republican leadc rs urged them on. Did they seek to "n in American industries?" The Umpqua Herald, heretofore prohi bltion, comes out strongly for ClevelarJ, Thurman and tariff reform. -GRAND- Excursion East ! Notice of Remova -VIA- NORTHERN PACIFIC R.R.

Samuel E. Young. THE PLACE. The Impression is rapidly gaining ground amung wonting men that the head and tr,'l 01 tne republican ticket are too strongly tinctured with devotion for the Chinaman and his welfare.on the part of Mr. Harrison, and invested interest in Canadian PaclBc and Northern Pacific railroad stocks on the part of Mr. Morton, In addition to the fact tnat he has large Interests in an English bank. Harrison, the railroad attorney and foe of organized labor,and Morton,the Eng lish banker, form a combination repugnant w tne leeungs and judgment of labor peo ple.
