About Albany daily democrat. (Albany, Or.) 1888-192? | View Entire Issue (June 5, 1889)
Daily Democrat Mr Wiiimikcr It said to be much pleas ed with Clarkson. He couldn't hive found a better man for his "suspender depart ment." Mr J D Rockefeller, who gave $600,000 toward the establishment of a Bap'Jst L'nl yersity in Chicago, it taid to be read; to increase hit gift to $3,000,000 if necessary. Mr llarriton tart : "Thank God.I have satisfied m vtelf. It it the onl y satisfaction !hat a man can b certain of." Mi Harri . sn hat done more than satisfy himself He has satisfied all hit relatives. The latest wrinkle in the clothing trade is garmenti made of paper. A Minnesota iiventor it said to have made enough vests and underclothes of paper last win ter to create temelhing of a panic among St Paul clothert. The paper is prepared so that it is as soft as cloth anJ the cold cannot penetrate i'. The official figures of the United Statet Ctnsut in 1790 were 3,9:9,326, f which number 695,655 were t'aves. A short time after these figuret appeared Capt G Imlay, Virginian, published an article in wh'ch ha placed the population in 1S90 at 64,000, 030, and wae therefore supposed by hit friends to be a visionary. Hit prediction was surprisingly accurate as well as daring. About twoyearsajo Benjamin Harrison, of Indiana, now fresicient of the United Statet, tart the New York World, decided to come to New York to practice law. Lackily for him hit intimate friends, New and Dudley ,saw into the future Terr clear ly and persuaded him to remain in Indian apolis. ' The Irish ask for homerule.but the Tory peers in that unfortunate country seem to think that a royal residence in Dublin and an English prince to live in it will do as well. This is the old story. For some eight hundred years England has been re fusing the Irish what they asked and giv them what thev did not want. A special from Harrisburg, Penn., says that Postmaster-General Wanamalrer's ambition is to be governor of Pennsylvania. It is said also, that Senator Quay is ready to help him reach his goal. These things being true, Mr Wanamaker has only to raise a campaign fund and f lace it in Mr Quay's hands. The difference between John Jarrttt and the workmen he claimed to represent in his enthusiastic advocacy of protection U that the protectionvictory brings John a fat office and the workmen a reduction of wages. But the fat office will bring addi tional arguments in favor of protection and the reduction of wages will bring in creased profits to the protected manufac turer, so that tne beauty of pro.ection will be unimpaired. The confession of faith adopted by the Westminster Assembly has been maintain ed without change for nearly 250 years. But even Presbyterianism, intensely con servative as it is, has at last taken the first step toward revising its standards of faith. The response of the Presbyteries to the questions of the General Assembly, espe cially as regards the doctrine of predestina. tion,cannot fail to excite a profound interest outside at well at within the Presbyterian denomination. The first outfit of men and machinery foractual work on the Nicarague cm a has been dispatched to the scene of of era- tions. It will be a great day for the c.isi merce of tho world when the canal is com pleted and successfully opened to ships. In the meantime the big ditch, dug part way across the isthmus of Panama is slowly filling up, while several thousand unern ployed laborers wait.houseless and without food, for stcumers to take them away. The office subsidized organs naturally tee everything at Washington through rose tinted spectacles. One of them .ays that "in the pension service the change in spirit and purpose is felt already by every veteran in the land." Yes, it is decidedly a change, even from fermtr republican ad. ministrations, to have the "roll of honor" recruited by shirks and bummers whose "injuries in the line of duty" came from falling out of bunks, getting hit by demi johns or indulging in horse play. The battle scarred veterans do"feel the change," and many of them do not like it. Calvin S Brice, chairman of the demo cratic National committee has just bee made a member of Mart- Armstrong Post G A R at Lima, Ohio. That will give him no better standing with republicans, so long as he votes the democratic ticket. A confederate who now votes the republican ticket will receive far greater consideration at the hands of this administration than a union soldier win votes the democratic ticket, notwithstanding the very great love l'.;at party professes -.o entertain for the old soldier. After all, it is a mere question of politict ; if the voter is a republican he it all right soldier or no soldier, and if he Is a democrat he is all wrong soldier or no sol dier.

The appointment of Henry Staawood, a ephew of James G Blaine, to he a Deputy Collector in the Custom House at New York, following the appointment of Secretary Blaine's son to be his own Examiner of Claims and bis private secretary to the fat Coasulate at Liver pool, shows how thoroughly nepotism is the fashion under the new Administration. The list of the President's family relatives or connections already provided for at (he public expense stands as follows to date: (I.) The President's brother. (2.) The President's father in law, (3.) The father in law of President's son. (4.) The brother of the husband of the Presi dent's daughter. (5.) The husband of the daugbter of the' President's brother. (6.) The husband of the niece of the Presi dent's wife. With the custom of "providing lor his own" and "satisfying himself' thus openly set by the President it is not strange that his associates and party friends fellow his example. Mr. Blaine's brother has long held a sinecure birth in one of the Departments at Washington, and its head railed a small cyclone recently by inti mating that he would like an efficient man in the place. Senator Sherman has just secured for his brother a Consulate, Consul Sherman Mr. Blaise's late Secretary, has appointed hit son to a salaried place under himself. Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Tichenor has done the same. And so it goes. There can be no doubt as to what the Re publican statesmen are "here for." It is to get all they can and keep all they get. liOLDEN KILE BAZAAK- Gash Goes a Long Wayslat Jnlint tiradwhol' I have made arrangements for buying goods direct from the factories In Europe and will sell at wholesale or retail, cheaper than any where else on the Pacific Coast.
