SSJaily Democrat From our retfutfcr sorrefvoodest, WASHINGTON. Washington, Jan. list, 1SS8. Representative Springer, backed by 14J of hit colleagues, hat given the republican Senate an opportunity of howing hew lncere the great interest they are constant ly expressing for the territories really Is If they accept Mr. Springer's bill as passed by the Houir, South Dakota with two Rep resentatives and Montana with one will be admitted as states by Presidential procla mation just as soon a the voters accept the constitutions already formed, and NrtW Dakota, Washington and Nw Mexico may be admitted by Congress as soen as their constltutians are formed. If they re ject this bill, they pstpon! for menthsthe admission of any of the territories. Senators Gorman, Vest, Vance and others are vigorously combating the grow ing sentiment among the democrats in th House to accept the Senate tariff bill as better than no legislation on the subject. They argue that the Senate bill is mora objectionable than the existing law, as It increases the duties on articles In which the masses are directly interested notably iron.cotton and wool. They contend that when the bill is referred to a conterenco committee, the democratic conferees should be instructed to take a firm stand in behalf of the necessaries of life, and let the repub licans take all the responsibilities of fram ing a tariff bill to suit themselves in the next Congress. The other side of the question is represented by Representatives Wilson, of West Virginia, and Catehlngs. of Mississippi, who are of thff opinion that the republicans would be greatly disap pointed if the House should agree to tha Senate bill, and for that reason they favor doing so,as the measure contains some good things and is therefore better than no bill. They contend that as long as the republi cans claim to have carried the election oa their tariff ideas that they should be allow ed to pass their bill. That this is the status of the matter at this time. But those who are in positions to know say that the Sen ate bill will never be considered by the House. The old adage that "a house divided against Itself will fall," is likely to prevent the passage of a bill admitting Utah as a state.nntwithstanding the fact that a demo cratic caucus of '.he House has agreed to pass it. Governor West, of Utah, is here working hard to prevent the passage of such a bill, and delegate Caine, of the same territory , Is vigorously working in its favor. Both being democrats, whs.', they have to say en the subject Is carefully listened to by their party associates. An amendment giving a bounty of on cent per pound on all sugar produced la this country has been added to the Senate tariff bill, but It required a vigorous us of the party whips to bring the republican Senators into line, and even then Isnator Quay voted against it. General J. C. Black, Commissioner of Pensions, will, It Is thought, be appointed Judge Advocate General of the Army, un less It shall be shown that he is ineligible, which Is claimed by some prominent men. Senator Morgan has given "granny" Blair another tongue lashing. Some peo ple would get tired of such treatment, but Senator Biair seems to thrive on it, indeed he almost looks disappointed if he has any thing to say and does not receive some abuse. He often gets it from his own party as well &s from democrats. The active fight that Mr. Blaine is giv ing McKlnlcy in his fight for the Speaker shin is havlnir Its effect. His chances are now regarded as best by close observers, but If Blaine should get "turned down" by Harrison it will cause a big tumble In Mc Klnlcy stock. There are nearly 350 nominations pend ing before the Senate, the most of them for postmasters. There Is no reason why they should not be confirmed except that the republicans want to keep the places for Harrison to fill. Tom Reed, of Maine, Is much discomfit ed at the manner in which Blaine is un dermining his strength In the Speakership canvass. Blaine never forgets or forgives an Injury, and nothing is too small for him to undertake In order to get ven with people. On Saturday afternoon last.the President and Mrs. Cleveland received a visit from Vice-President and Mrs. Morton. The latter have been in the city for several days. They are stopping at the Norman die, a new hotel In a fashlor.ab'.e quarter the success of which was assured by Blaine having taken up his winter residence there. Advices just received at the state depart, ment from Samoa Indicate that Germany has got Into a rumpus with Uncle Sam that will have to he apologized for or else a war may follow. Secretary Bayard Is reticent on the subject, preferring to await particu lars in regard to the reported insult to the American flag by German officers. Mr. W. W. Dudley escapes Indictment under the ruling of Judge Woods that the bribery proposed in his letter.and for which the funds were held In readiness, must be proved to have been effected by the party to whom his letter was addressed. This is equivalent to a Scotch delivery "Guilty, but not proven." Judge Woods reversed himself by this ruling, and has made the business of corrupting voters In Indiana a very safe proceeding. Having voted that the people shall pay a bounty of one cent a pound to all manufacturers of domestic sugar, and a tax of more than that upon all imported sugar, and doubled the tax on every dinner-pail, teapot and tin can, the Republican Senators feel rather nervous abou t the fate of their bill. The Democrats could ask no better issue on which to go to the people than that afforded by this monstrous measure A New Grocery Discovered AT Strong' old oorner, opposite 8tewart A Sox, First street, Albany, Or.

Mr. Harrison will see it sur passed when he gets to Washington, lie may become a Civil-Service Reformer for self-protection. The G. O. P. is "very hungry and very thirsty," though only four years absent from the crib. Rutherford B. Hayes solemly announces that he has no idea of going into President Harrison's Cabinet. Thi is a most remarkable admission from an Ohio man. FOSHAY & MASON, -TVnUI AMD KIT AIL Druggists and Booksellers, Agents for John B.
