Lebanon Express. H. Y. KIRKPATRICK. Editor - and - Proprietor. DOIiPH CALLED TO ACCOUNT. The CorvslHs Times calls upon Senator Dolph to be a little more consistent. It Bays as follows: "You have just introduced a bill in the sennte asking that machin ery for the state of Oregon be ad mitted free of duty. How iB this, Senator? Vou md your jiarty pro fess to believe and you have repeat edly proclaimed from the stump iu this .state, that the foreign man ufacturer, and not the consumer, pays the duty, Your bill, Senator, gives the lie to your profession of faith and shows that you not only believe, but know, that if your bill fails to become a law the state of Oregon will have to pay the duty. It is a clear admission, sir, that the consumer in every case, and that the foreign mauufaccurer in no case, pays the duty. And now, Senator, since you are compelled to admit that it is good for the state of Oregon to eecape import duty on her jute mill machinery, will you not also admit that it would be equally good for her toiling, plod ding citizens to likewise escape the same dreadful tariff tax which is extorted from them every day in 4he week and every hour in the day? You are not honest, Senator. TV day that you introduced that bill you admitted the insincerity of your political faith. "Now there iB one way open that you can tread in safety. Add an other section to your bill. Let it provide that all necessities of life h al! be admitted into the United tates free of duty. Then buy a VTiitcratic rooster and nail it to ' Vown of your plug hut and for ' a your life be consistent. If ifuse to do this, sit down and for "tit rest of your term keep tjuiet. Be content to warm your seal and draw your salary. Don't on any account get up again, lest ynu muke another break that will brinv the blush of shame to the .cheek of your party." COMPROMISE. It rains pretty hard in Oregon sometimes, and we are often justi fied in complaining about the mud, but Kansas cyclones, and Louisiana tidal wuves are strangers here. That's saying a good deal, too. Oregon pine is pronounced su perior to that of Califomis for the manufacture of turpentine. The extraction of turpentine, fir-balsam and wood tar is an important in dustry that we of Oregon should not neglect. Fifty to one hundred big Cali fornia, Eastern and foreign insur ance companies making war upon our little Oregon company, does not look like a fair tight; but the Oregon company seems entirely equal to the occasion, and is setting the pace for the big concerns com bined into a trust against it. The brutal practice in the Brit ish army, of firing mutineers from the mouth of a cannon has again been resorted to in India. Years ago it was instrumental in quelling an outbreak among the Sepoys. This time it is likely to provoke an uprising of the natives against British tyranny. One of Albany's most prosperous business men paid the Express a high compliment this week. He said: "I have advertised to a large extent in all the papers in the county, and have found the Ex press the best advertising medium for my business, of them all." That man wbb W. F. Read. An exchange remarks that the people who need more religion are: The man who lets his horse stand .all day in the rain, without a blan ket; the man who growls like a beast with a sore head when his wife oskB him for money; the wom an who whispers around that some other is not what she ought to be; the preacher who is always looking for an easier place at a higher sala ry; the man who walks the streets with his hands in bis pockets while his wife carries the baby, and the man who keeps a dog and says he can't afford to take the home paper. After weeksof weary deliberation the Senate finds itself no further advanced toward the silver qlWs tiiui than when it first started. In fact the breach between silver and gold has steadily widened until it geems that the vital forces of the country will be crushed between the great rival money standards. The people have wearied of the question, and are beginning to look upon the Senate as a useless and pernicious branch of our- govern ment. Of the many compromise plans suggested, the latest and probably the liest is that introduced by Sen ator Fqtiire, of Washington, on the into i.t. This bill provides that the owners of silver bullion, the product of mines or refineries of the United States, may deposit it at anv mint in an amount not less th;tn 1100 in value, to be coined into standard dollars of the present weight. There will only be paid to the person depositing the bullion Rn 'h a number of dollars as, will equal the commercial value of the silver bullion on the day of depos it, the ditiereiice between the com fuercial value and the mint value to be retained by the government as seigniorage. Deposits of bullion for coinage shall not exceed ?i,lX)U, 00 per month, and when the num ber of silvor dollars coined shall reach the sum nf 100,000,000, fur titer coinage shall cease. The seigniorage shall be retained in the treasury as a reserve fund for the DurDose of maintaining the purity of every dollar issued under this act. These silver dollars are to be (legal tender in all payments at full value, and no certificates will be is sued to represent them. The Examiner shvm: Wells, Fargo & ('o., the corporation that has for nearly half a century held eoiitH of the express business of this coast, may bave a competitor in the field before the beginning of the new year. With in the next forty-five days thecontract of Wells, Fargo & Co. with the South ern Pacific company will expire, and balf a dozen express companies, In cluding the Adams Express Company, will bid for the privilege of the line controlled by the Southern Pacific Company. The bill to repeal the Federal election law was passed on the 10th inst. bv a strict party vote, amid enthusiastic applause by the dem ocrats. Wm 1 11 .. I, mmwmm A SPECIAL OFFER! m.- ..i.
