Uniyersnl Protection.

10 the New England cotton and WOOL
en- manufacturers, to the Pennsyl.
vania iron mongers, the Ohio wool
growers, the Louisiana sugar plan
tiers, the Georgia rice raisers, ETC.
The ST. Louis Republican wants the
commission to do the fair thing, and
recommends that duty Of, say 100
per cent. be levied for the benefit Of
every material interest in the coun-
try, with an import duty of 500 a
head on working-men from abroad,
for the protection of American labor
from the pauper labor Of Europe
That paper says:
1t is true that making protection
universal would destroy its special
benefits to few favored classes, for
to give special protection to any per-
son is to infiict special injury to
others. But what right has a free
government to select few Of its cit
liens for its favors? What reason is
there for giving to one class Of per-
sons privileges that are denied TO
others-and, more particularly, what
fairness is there in giving one class
privileges at tho-onpeneo of anothor7
A government should treat all its
citizens alike. If one class is taxed,
all should be taxed; if one is protect
ed, all should be protected. Any
variation from this is favoritism, and
it is the invariable habit of favorites
to grow into a privileged class. The
universal protection we propose
would be impartial, equable and just.
Its benefits and its injuries would
fall upon all alike. Its injuries
would be greater than its benefits;
but that is the inevitable effect of all
protection. 1t would, in the end,
demonstrate the foolishness of the
whole system-and that would be
something gained.

THE TALLEsT OF MONUMENTS.

The white, tall, plain shaft of the
Washington monument is foot by foot
daily rising skyward. and its compile
tion. in due course of time, is now as
sured. 1t is already landmark visible
from any part Of Washington, and the
inhabitants, after generation OF ridi-
eule, are beginning to be proud Of it.
Apart from its unique character as an
architectural wonder, modern science
proposes to utilize it for the public
benefit The signal Office expects to
have prominent station at its summit,
and its officers say that observations
Of the air and atmosphere movements
taken at an altitude of $50 feet will be
of great value. Observations are taken,
Of course, at far greater attitudes than
this, but the gradual slope Of even the
most precipitous mountains aud the
presence Of large masses of rock near
the observatory, create surface cur
rents, even on mountain heights, and
interfere with the study OF the phe-
nomena of the highest levels OF the at
mosphere. 1t has often been proposed
to institute a series OF experiments by
means OF captive balloons. but the ex-
pense OF srch work prevented the plans
being carried out. AT the time of the
Centennial it was proposed to erect a
skeleton tower to the height OF 1000
feet in Fairmount Park. Had this been
done, the signal officers would have
utilized the observatory for the benefit
OF meteorological science, but the tow
er stopped at 800 feet. The signal o.
6cers say it would not be impracticable
to build tower 1000 feet high, or
even higher. and that the erection OF
such tower would be Of great service.
The monument is now 200 feet high.
The original design contemplated a
height OF 500 feet. but at meeting OF
the Commissioners two years ago, when
it was decided TO resume work, it was
voted to make the monument the lofti.
est artificial structure in the world.
The Commissioners examined tie
heights Of all the noted monuments,
towers, pagodas, spires. buildings, and
flag poles, and found that to safely
distance all rivalry height OF $50 feet
would be necessary. II was. therefore,
determined to complete the shaft on
this plan, and the drawings were modi.
fed to the end. What was the sur
prise and qualification OF the Commis-
soners to find subsequently, that the
new proportions of the shaft as now
adopted were exactly those of an
Egyptian obelisk.

traced to a definite locality or the
west bank Of the Lena. Engineer
Melville and Russians are search

orders and will bear investigation.
Lieut.. Chipps' little boat has not
been seen since September. A

she is not found before spring, l
will charter the steamer Lena and
search first between the river Olo-
nok and Kolyna. Jack Coles has
been an invalid since October last.

the northwest during 21 months
and she was crushed and sank on
June II, 1881, in latitude rs deg

We made our retreat over the ice
to near Siberia islands, and thence

the boat by DeLong, as l was
blind. Hearty and intelligent help
was rendered by Russians and
everything possible is being done.

Justice before Generosity.

ONE great set back to the full
of success to which our
public schools should attain is
caused by the desire to have pu-
pills learn too much: to pay more
regard to the capacity than the
ability. "Every educational re-
former" says the Chicago Times,
"desires to add something to the
course of instruction pursued in
the public Schools" No one, how
ever, suggests the propriety Of
taking anything out, an are ap- ap
parently unconscious of the fact
that only 20 per cent of the pupils
in the public schools ever pass be-
yond the primary grades, and
that only ! per cent ever get be-
yond the grammar grades. Fully
three-fourths of all the children
who enter the public schools leave
before they have acquired any
thing but a rudimentary know
ledge of reading, spelling, writing
and arithmetic. 1t would be well
for the persons who desire to add
anything to the present course of
study to designate what they would
leave out to make room for il.
Would they deny to poor children
the only opportunity most of them
will ever have to learn to read
easy words, to write their own
names and to reckon up their own
wages? 1t is absolutely necessary
to curtail Or omit altogether in.
struction in reading, writing OF
simple arithmetic IN order to make
room for any new branch of study
Devotiug the first forty minutes in
each day to new study would
amount to reducing the time now
given to practical branches al
least one-ffth, as the first morn
ing hour is worth much more thar
any other in school work. As. e;
large proportion of the pupils ii
the primary grades attend schoo
but half the day, one-third of al
their time would be spent in re
ceiving ethical instruction.

4 New Country

The Yaquina, which came in
last Wednesday night from an ex-
ploring expedition, brings news of
several isolated and self-sustaining
little cofhfhfnitiesJEsfzzHde
people who are living along the
Chehalis river for q distance of
seventy miles. 1t is, we are in
formed, virgin country, entirely
pastoral in its surroundings and
characteristics, and as remote from
the ordinary lines of travel and
communication as though it were
some lone island of the Pacific.
The land is of unequaled fertility,
the timber of sturdiest growth,
and the resources of the country
give promise, when developed, OF
causing this section to be wealthy
and prosperous in an eminent de-
gree. 'Tis now some FIVE or six
years ago since steamer first
wen@ up the Chehalis, and we be-
lieve the Yaquina is the largest
craft that ever visited those shores.
This vessel, which left Astoria
about nine days ago, made a brief
stay at Chehalis City at tho en-
trance to Gray's Harbor, and then
went inland some sixty miles, find
ing a good channel and safe land
ings as far as she went; the eastern
limit was reached at Montesano,
where there is twenty feet of water
and an apparently safe channel
extending up far into the interior.
There are no buoys, nor anything
else to indicate the channel, but
soundings taken show no difficulty
in navigating those waters. To
some of the dwellers in that Sec
ton the sight Of q steamer was a
new sensation; many of the young
er residents having never seen a
steamboat before. Though the
cost of running the Yaquina (she
having a crew of sixteen men) will
not at present justify an attempt
to build up trade with this sec.
ton, yet it is certain that smaller
schooner would make handsome
returns on the amount invested BY
making regular trips up the river
The people are mostly engaged il
farming, stock raising and the pro
ducts Of the dairy. BY reason o
vicinage, location, and feasibilit,
of access, the trade of that countr,
of. the future belongs to Astoria
and a little effort on the part o
those most interested can easil,
secure it. 'Tis country that will
once opened up, increase in wealtl
and population. From Hoquiam
along to Montesano, Sharon ant
other. places, is stretch of lane
that, when it becomes general,
known is open for settlers at tht
government price of 81 25 an acre
will shortly be taken up. Thc
pioneers now living there are but
