Just at present the tariff question Is cutting
a prominent figure in the political canvass, and
1t is not improbable that 1t Will be made the
Chief issue from now on In the presidential cleo
ton. Hitherto, both parties have been afraid
TO take decided stand On the tariff, in ma
tOnal view. In manufacturing localities re-
publicans and democrats were protectionists,
while IN agricultural and mercantile districts
most were antt-protectionists. One thing ap-
pears 10 be clear just now, however. and that Is
that there is no very large proportion of this
people who favor free-trade. The south, where
free trade once ruled, is now drifting over to
protection. The people OF that section believe
that they must work out prosperity through
manufactures, and that these can only be
fcstered by protection Every manufacturing
interest yet established In the south has pros
pered and this has naturally directed the at
tentioD OF the people to an extension of their
factories The democrats now repudiate all
idea OF free-trade as part OF their policy, and
contend that "tar1n for revenue only
means nothing more than an equitable revision
Of the tariff. AS far as the recent elections
have Indicated popular sentiment on the tariff
question, IL has been more In favor OF letting
wellenough alone, than OF trying any new ex-
periments- What the general election next
month may indicate on this subject, remains to
be seen, but at present the protectionists Ger
talnly have the vantage ground

In the efforts of Virginia to encourage foreign
immigration the British holders OF the bonds OF
that state are interesting themselves The
committee OF the British bondholders recently
adopted resolution promising their "cordial

influence that will be valuable to the immizra-

think they can better their prospect of getting
the face value OF their debt by aiding In the

Dlver.l.y ofOrexon's resources.

The brilliant picture of prosperity
drawn upon the map Of the near future
for our State, depends not on the fact
that it is an agricultural section; that
coal, iron, gold and silver abound; that
its stock range Is Of vast extent, and its
natural facilities for manufactures and
commerce are unsurpassed, but upon all
of these collectively. A farming popu-
laiion ean never attain the hight of pros
perity, without it is interspersed with
mechanical industries and manufactures
and is afforded facilities fer commerce
A mining and manufacturing people in
turn depend upon the agricultural dis
tricts for their supplies, and the whole
country thrives by the interchange OF
products of a diversified industry.
Our State has all the resources IN a
crude state that go to make up the sum of
prosperity. We need capital and labor
to develop the resources. We want
boot and shoe factories, additional WOOL
en- mills and iron and steel rolling mills.
We want more sturdy farmers, who are
not afraid to WELD the msttock and who
can inteligently improve seed time and
harvest. We want bag factories that
will save to the State the immense sums
annually paid to sack the wheat crop,
and railways to pour this wheat prompt
ly into the Ships that wait to convey it
abroad. All these things are within the
possibilities of very few years. Ener-
getlc business men see Oregon's opportu-
nifty and will hasten to make it their
own.-Bec.

Army Economy.

The kind of economy which Congress
has acted upon in dealing expenditures
tor the maintenance OF the army does
not appear to be based upon an intelli-
gent understanding OF the subject.
There has been niggardly, ,short-sisht-
ed attempt at effecting saving by meth
DDS which, in the long run, have proved
costly and extravagant. BY refusing
to authorize reasonable increase in the
number OF enlisted men, the necessity
has been created for transporting troops
long distances at great expense. For
instance, there can be no question at
all that to have increased the rank and
file OF the army last year to the extent
of say 5000 men, SO that the garrisons
in places where troops were needed
wonld have been strong enough for
all exigencles, would have involved
much less expense than was incurred 10y
transporting little squads of neu i'm
mense distances by railroad and other
modes of conveyance. Moreover, the
troops would have been Immediately
available wherever they were needed
to prevent Indian outrages or for any
other purpose. The expense incurred
by the Government during the last nine
months in moving handfuls of troops
from one place to another in compliance
with urgent local demands was probably
far greater than would have suf1iced TO
increase the army to such an extent as
to render it practicable to maintain
garrisons and military posts at every
point where difficulties with the Indians
conld be reasonably anticipated

diseases OF alae skin.

A subscriber asks for some informa-
tion in regard to diseases of the skin.
Scald head in particular.
In the first place we want to know
the causes, of which there are several;
not untreqnently there is an absence Of
sufficient amount of soap and water.
Also gross and irritating food, pork,
salt or fresh, rich gravies, Or cake, burnt
grease of any kind, stimulating drink OF
an alcoholic nature, anything that tends
to clog the system. The blood becomes
impure, the skin undertakes to throw
off the impurities, but in It's clogged

therefore it becomes diseased. Scald

case requires (only ,,eoe, make the bath
uncomfortably warn). pour the water
over the shoulders Constantly while in
the bath, remain IN the bath from five
to ten minutes, (but usually short baths
are better tLan long ones}. When

origin of a Popular song.

''The Old Oaken Bucket" was written
fifty or moro years ago, by printer
named Samuel Woodwork. He was
in the habit of dropping into noted
drinking saloon kept by ona Mallory.
One day, after drinking glass of brandy
and water, he smacked his lips and de.
clared that Mallory's brandy was
superior to any drink he had ever tasted.
"No," said Mallory, "you are mis-
taken. There is drink which in both
our estimations far surpassed this.'
"What was that p'' incredulously
asked Woodworth.
"The fresh spring water we used to
drink from the old oaken bucket that
hung in the well, after returning from
the fields on sultry day"
every true," replied Woo'lworth,
tear drops glistenlpg in his eyes.
Returning to lis printing office, be
seated himself at bis desk and began to
write. In halt an hour:
ssrhe old oaken bucket, the iron-bound
bucket,
The moss-eovered bucket which hung In
the well,''
was embalmed in an inspiring song that
has become as familiar as household
word.
Notwithstanding the recent death Of
his only son, the well known name Gov.
E. D. Morgan is TO be perpetuated. He
has just caused the name of his grand
son and only lineal descendant to be
changed from Arthur Denison Morgan
to Edwin D. Morgan, Jr. The court
cheerfully granted the order upon the
necessary affidavit establishing the tacts
first, that Gov. Morgan approved
this adoption of his name, and second
that the change was not device for
escaping pecuniary liabilities. 1t may
well be imagined that little evidence
was needful to establish either the
grandfather's willingness or the grand.
sons solsency.

the Sd instant, at about o'clock IN the

by the report that Albert Cliff, boy
about twelve years Of age, son of James
2. Gilt of this place, had been shot by
his brother, who is about two years
older, and was abont 10 die. 1t appears
that the two brothers had just returned
from school when Willie, the oldest,
who had searched out the hiding-place
ofhis fathers pistol, and not supposing
it was loaded, took and presented it at
his brother, at the Same time saying,
''l've got you-hold up your hands,
you Robber," (imitating play called

at the same moment pulled the trigger,
and way went the fatal messenger of
death, penetrating the brothers neck,

elder brother became conscious of what
he had dons. he ran up town in search
of his father, who was soon found and
