-if Daily Democrat FALSE l'KKMISK. The East Oregoniau and Times-Mountain-eer jre having a discussion on Ihe subject of the policy of patronizing home Indus tries as against the same industry in an other state. The East Oregonian affirms that it is nat good policy to do so unless the home article is as cheap or of superior quality, while the Mountaineer asserts that ound policy would require a man In Ore gon to patronize his home industry rather than that of New York, Chicago, San Francisco or thei town at a distance.cven though the price of the article was twice that manufactured in the city or place at a sjiitance. This is a mere theory, and has ns place in the practical business tr;nMic- tons of life. How manv farmers who profess to believe implicitly in this doc trine of the Mountaineer who,neverthele send abroad for the wagons and plows an doens of other articles which might made at home if these same farmers wou patronize them. And whv do thev not patronize them ? Simply because the arti' cle made abroad can be bought cheaper. The argument of the Mountaineer that newspapers published in the east are much cheaper than the East Oregonian, and that if the policy of the East Oregoniau should prevail, then the people of Pendleton an Umatilla county would and should support the eastern papers'and thus crush out tl: East Oregonia is fallacious wrong in its premise and false in its conclusion. It i based on the premise that the cheap east ern newspaper is the same article as th local paper in Pendleton. The citizen of Tendleton when he receives the Dailv Eas, Oregonian reads the local news, local prices and other matters peri.aining to the local interests of the people of his town and county. This is what he takes his local paper for. Should he take up a copy the daily New York World ox Tribune, not five times in a year would he find an ite 01 local news appertaining to nis Njwn Henc. the two papers compared by the Mountaineer are not one and the same thing at all, and the comparison of prices leads to no rational conclusion. Suppose the owners of the Eas: Oregonian should publish a neivspaptrin all respects similar to the New York World, the same in size, the same reading matter, the same lack o local news and local prices as to Pendleton ana (leurer It to its readers at the same date as the World is delivered, and put the price at twice the price of the World, docs any one suppose that the people of Pendle ton would give the Pendleton paper any support ? Of course not,and yet the Moun taineer mi'st suppose they would be silly enough to do so, in order to maintain its position in favor of our present war tariff. Anent the scramble for onice, is It not strange that the disreputable in a paity have very little trouble in getting the endorsement of the Oregon senators and representative for an iniKrtant office? 1 hat a man who publicly sold his political soul fur a mess of pottage should obtain such an endorsement is not creditable to the good faith and good judgement of Mitchell, llolnh and Hermann. Some ardent republican has predicted that Harrison will have a very sunny administration. If the prediction had been that it would he a sonny one, there would be no occasion to doubt it, lor Harrison is the .ton of his father and so ol Fred Grant, Robert Lincoln and others, but that the administration is to be sunny is a desire without hope.

Senator Stanford of California, speaking of railroad building says: "It will not be long until a railroad will reach all the way up to Alaska When it gets there it will trend across Uehring sea, and down into Asia. All this.I believe, will be done in 25 years and there will be literally an iron girdle arcund the earth. It's no harder to build a road down the Himalayas than to build across the Sierra Nevada or other places where roads have been built. Snow sheds ran and will be ruilt, the same as we have over the Sierra Nevadas" for 40 miles. Behring sea is the worst obstacle, but a w ay would be found to conquer even that, The reason why the road through is feasible, is because it would be a long line and could be deflected according to the obstacles to he overcome, I havj doubt that in 25 years a min can go ch around the earth by rail. The whole of Africa a-III be interested in the defeat of the Massachusetts prohibi tion movcment.as more than one-third of the rum turned out near Boston is sent to be consumed by the savages of the dark continent.
