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.

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.

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."

Salem continues to grow and the build

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

them increasingly desirable to those who
wish to engage in any farm speciality.
