From present indications Africa, is igoiug to take a hand, in llio money .question, and ttie outlook for silver is .considerably brightented thereby. The jjreat argument ugtiiust eilver, haa been that the production of that metal has increased so much more rapidly than igold, that itsiKelative value has propor, tionatcly decreased. Report conies IVr.tri Africa that indicates a rapid in crease In the output of .gold. Indeed it is premised that, it will reach in a few years ihe enormous sum of $200. OCO.OOO yearly. Should this prove true r should the gold production be in creased by even half that' sum, silver becoming the scarcer metal, if given :an opportunity oy naving us goou character as money restored will go to jar, or perhaps even to a premium at the present ratio. BIMETALLISM. India is in about the same condition :fiiancially and otherwise that the Uul--ted States is. ' Business is at a stand still and a financial panic pervades the land. The United States demonetised .silver a few months ago aud so did India. Is it a ease of Tike causes pro ducing like results? It would seem so. One result of the conditions existing is that the bimetallists have again taken heart, and are organizing cluiis tnrougn .out'the United States. It Is thought that England will be forced ;tojota the United States in another effort to adopt ,ii bimetallic standard. . The income tax is by no means a novelty. It is already an established thing in many states of this Union. In Massachusetts, a typical republican :8tate, there is a law of long standing which taxes all incomes over $2000. In Virginia, a typical democratic state, Pennsylvania taxes the incomes.or net. . earnings of all all corporations, includ ing banks .and insurance .companies. 'The constitutionality of Vhe niussa- .chusetts law was tested and upheld by the supreme court. Hence the idea that the income tux is ''monarchical" .exists only in the minds of the republi .cau editors. Portland Telegram. Some weeks ago we stated that it was useless to nominate Senator Raley for congress fof the fact that he was a banker. We are informed that Mr. Raley is not now connected with the Pendleton or any other bank. This removes ,the only objection that could be made to Mr. Raley as a candidate. We recognize in him a sterling demo crat and an able man, who, whether he carried his party flag to victory or defeat, would carry it with honor to himself and to the party. Dunbar, the smuggler is in jail in Portland. Blum, his fellow smuggler is in Washington accompanied by a lady friend, and is having a high old time. Of the two, Dunbar is the bet ter man. He is a convicted criminal, so is Blum, but Dunbar is neither a sneak nor an informer. The adminis tration will do well to remand Mr. Blum to thejeustody of the U. S. Mar shal, and then let him be sentenced, and set to work. From the dispatches yesterday it is probable none of the applicants for the Portland post office will be appointed, and that a new man will be selected.

The following is the national plat form of the populist party, commonly known as the Omaha platform: 1st. We demand a national currency, safe, sound and flexible, Issued by the general government only, a full Icgul lender for all debis, public and private; and that without the use of banking operations, a just, ' equitable and effi cient means of distribution direct to the people shall be established at a tux not to exceed 2 percent per annum, to be provided as set forth in the sub-treasury plan of the farmers' alliance, or some better system; also, by payments in discharge of its obligations lor pub lic improvements. a. We demand tho free and unlim ited coinage of silver and gold at their present legal ratio ofsixteen to one. b. We demand that the amount of circulating medium bo speedily in creased to not less than 50 per capita. c. ' We demand a graduated income tax. . . .' '":' ' d. We believe the money of the country should be kept as much as possible in the hands of the people, and hence we demand that the national and- slate revenues shall be limited to the necessary expenses of the government conomica'l adautiis-' tered. . ..- " , " ; . - e. We demand that postal savings banks be established by the govern ment for the safe deposit of the earn ings of the people and to facilitate exchange. , 2. The land, including all the nat ural sources. of wealth, is the heritage of all the people and should not be monopolized for speculative purposes, and alien ownership of land should be prohibited. All lands now held by railroads and other corporations in ex cess of their actual needs, and all lands now owned by aliens, should be re claimed by the government and held for actual settlejs only. 3. Transportation being a means of exchange and an actual necessity, the government should own and operate the railroads in the interest of the peo ple. a. - The telegraph and telephone, like the post office system, being a ne cessity for trausmision of news, sliould be own sd and operated by the govern ment in the interests of the people. , i St. Paddy's Day Dance. .

Ed.) J, A Sudden Death. .. Charley Mercer, commonly known as French Charley, was found dead in his room in The Dalles at 1:30 Tuesday morning. Charley had resided in The Dallas since 1800 and -was known by everybody. He was a good-hearted, kindly old mau, a relic of bygone days, but the rugged and honest .worth. of the old man made him many friends who sincerely regret his loss. Peace to your spirit, old friend, and may. it find abiding place where your old calling need not be pursued. A blizzard swept over the middle and Eastern stales,-beginning Monday and keeping up for two (lays. In Okla homa, many persons were frozen to death, not being properly sheltered. Aa the storm swept on eastward trains were tied up, railroads blockaded and s!rtet-car traffic in the cities suspended. In places the wind reached a velocity of 70 miles an hour, and the snow, which ranged from nine inches to two feet on a level, drifted in places len or fifteen feet deep. It was the most ex tensive blizzaifat has visited the East in many yea., reaching from the gulf lo the lakes, and sweeping across the country from Oklahoma to New York. - -. ; "..'-.'."' The following, clipped from the dis patches, shows the severity of the storm in Oklahoma: , "Reports of suffering and death come in from all parts of the territory. Mrs. Fannie C. Spencer, a homesteader near Cross, was found frozen stiff. Many persons are living in tents and their condition is awful, James Mulligan, near Perry, was found frozen to death, and his partner, Harvey Newcomb,died from exposure. At Ponca, Mr. Cramer and two children were found froze-i stiff in cayotes' burrows, ten yards from their abode. Colonel Henry Melton, a cowboy, who was with Buffalo Bill at the world's fair,, was discovered by a party of hunters, early this morning, dead under' his horse. At Auadarko two ludian pupils were found yester day buried under a snow bank. Upon beiiig taken to a house one of the chil dren immediately expired. The other shows signs of recovery. This evening a report reached here of a family named Sears being found near Woodward frozen to death, but no particulars were ootained. Word comes from Cross that Sherman Stone and family, -consisting of his wife and live children, were found sitting about a stove with their throats cut from ear to ear.. The fol lowing note, found on'a table near by, from Stone, gave the horrible story of the murder and suicide in connection with the storm: - - ' " .'Our wood is all gone. Mollis is frozen to death, and the rest of us are freezing. I have killed my family, and now I kill myself to prevent further suffering. God have mercy on us.' 'Stone was a homesteader and lived in a tent, it is thought that after the snow melts, hundreds of dead settlers will be found along with the remains of thousands of cattle." , - ' . , . . . fousd. .
