THE DAILY DEMOCRAT. WAUKSaND nuties. It is pointed out by a clever correspond ent of a contemporary that In 1S89 there were Imported Into this country hosiery and knit goods of the value of $6,560,050, the duty of which was $2,3Sl,Sj8. The McKhiley bill would Increase this latter sum to more than $5,000,000, which U within a little over $1,500,000 of the total wages paid by the American manufactur er of hosiery In 1SS0, These are very striking figures, but they can be duplicated many tinu's in our pro tected industries. V'nder the existing law, fot example, the maker of pig-iron is protected by a tariff tax which is neatly if not quite double the whole amount paid by him for wages. In fact, the average rale of protection last year was between ;o and 21 per rent, more than all the wage paid by the beneficiaries of the law. In other words, if the wage earners had really received tin! benefits of the protective duties their Incomes would have been greater than they were by between 20 and 21 per cent. If the tariff is really for the protection of "American labor," as the claim now is, why not add a section to the law requiring protected manufacturers to pay their work men the full amount of the duties? Having practised on southern dlstiicts with sn allcr adverse majorities, the re pnblicans in the federal house are gct'ing ready to obliterate the 8,419 democratic majority in the tenth Tennessee dist rict and seat the republican candidate who makes a contest. It is arsumed that the district ought to be republican. For want of a better reason, the New York Tribune prints figures showing that in five wards of the city of Memphis, which is in that district, the democratic vote at the munic ipal election this year fell 3,707 short of the democratic vote for president in iSSS. The same sort of "argument' would seat the prohibition candidate in the third Pennsylvania district at the election last week, for although he received only 67 votes the total democratic vote fell more than 11,000 bciow what it was iSSS. UESEUVED COMPLIMENT. The Tortland IJWM bestowi upon Harney Goldsmith, chairman of the democratic state central committee, the following deserved com pliment: "The democracy of Oregon owe a iieoi 01 gratitude to lion I! Goldsmith for the faithful, snrnact nA ..M mnmr he managed the late campaign, lie has few eqalsas an executive ami nosupenorj. nan ne uceu -i the necessary means for the parly and a l'.nger time to perfect organization, the result would have been more favorable to the democracy. Mr A E Starr, the county chairman, is also entitled to considerable credit for his manage ment of local matters. E ven after the election is over the West Store indulges in a mess of republican slush by say ing that the campaign that resulted in the tii umphant election of Governor l'ennoycr was one ofpuredimagogism. It is evident that the IIV SAorcis so deeplychagiined ai thedefeatofthe republican candidate for governor that it is un able to distinguish between great questions of public policy and demagogism. t lie averi-ne dernocrf tic majority in Linn county on the legislature ticket is 301. On the senatorial ticket it is 304. On the stale ticket the average majority is 330. Oa the county ticket the average is 450. , It looks very much like the immigration to Linn county since two ycais ago has been in favor of the democrats. In the "Forks" this is true beyond question. Hit. IMTTIl, Chairman Dunn, of the Democratic State Cen. Coin., of Iowa, believes the sen. timent of the committee is for calling the State Convention at Cedar Rapids some time in August. Mr Dunn Is confident of a democratic victory in Iowa this year and a gain of several congressmen. He be 'leves the prohibitionists will have three fourth of the delegates in the Republican State Convention, and he has assurances from many anti-prohlbitionists In that party that they will hereafter act and vote with the democratic partr. He also states that the democratic position upon the tariff will win thousands of votes to the party. Altogether the prospects for dem ocracy in Iowa were never before so promising. On May 31st 1S90 J X, Cowan v. hlle at Lebanon, wns asked to make an estimate of what lie thought the vote in Linn coun ty on governor would be. He did so, set ting out the precincts and marking his estimated majorities for Pennoyer or Thompson in each. The total majorities for Pennoyer was S2o,and the total forThomp. son was 14J leaving t majority in t'e county for Pennoyer of 6S0. The official count sho-vs Pennoyers majority to be 6S2 Remarkably close fiiguring, that. The senator from Rhode Island, Mr Aldrich, is be'.weeu two files. A large number of manufacturers in his state arc in favor of free law material, white others are demanding extreme protection, but the people, now being out of control of their employers by the adoption of a new con stitution, are squarely for a reduction of the tar iff, for the abolition of a tax imposed during the war. Senator Aldrich fears It Is the fate of Rhode Island to fall into the ranks of the conquering democracy in 1S92 and feels that his term of office is uncertain, no matter haw he votes.

Albany, Oregon, FRIO AY XIGE1T, JIXE 13, An exchange suggests that Senator Car lisle, having voted against the tariff bill in the senate, can illustrate the political maxim of "vote tarl and vote often." It ts probable that no such case has ever before cccurcd inhere an emtnent man goes upon the record as having voted in both houses of congress upon one and the same important measure Col. W YV Dudley has been 60 prospered, fchice he 3 encd his pension office in Washington that he now has fifteen clerks, equal to three "blocks of five," and will make large additions as the new laws are passed. One huhdrtd million is the estimated d.'ficil consequent on this rest-ion of con gress. No wonder that the party leaders begin to cry, "Hold up." hnnnj thlc trull I amis. Salem continues to grow and the build ing industry never was so actively pur sued in this city before. 'J his activity extend to the section adjoining the citv, and each contributes to the others prosper ity. This condition of affairs gives added value to those ten-acre fruit farms at Sunnyiide, four miles south of Salem, for nalc by the Oregon Land Co., and renders them increasingly desirable to those who wish to engage in any farm speciality.
