HARRISBURG, On, Oct. IL, 1883.
Eds. Democrat
From time 10 time / notice you take
to call attention to the ab.
Eurdities and Inconsistencies Of the
Oregonian on the tariff question. ]
desire 10 call attention 10 an absurd
article in that paper Of Oct. 18th,
entitled "The Ohio Amendments"
Speaking of the course Of the Repub-
lican party Of Ohio with reference to
the liquor question IL says: Fearing
the loss Of votes In the cities, Il refused
to advocate prohibition, Jet IL got no
vote 10 speak of but the prohibition
vote." Now this article Of the Orego-
man is based upon the assumption that
there are no prohibitionlsts in the
Democratic party in Ohio, and that all
who voted the Republican ticket are
prohibitionists. Now come and let
us reason together. According 10 the
latest and most reliable information as
10 the result Of the election In Hamil-
ton county, Cincinnati in that state
Hoadly's majority over the Republican
Candidate for governor was $500. Tho
majority against prohibition In the
same county Is reported at 10000.
Now, suppose that every Democrat IN
that county voted against prohibition,
(which suPpositien would DO entertain
cd only by an IDIOT it would still
show on its face that over $1,000
Republicans in that county alone voted
against prohibition.
Upon the same analysis of the vote
in Cleveland il will be shown that over
10000 Republicans in that county
voted against prohibition. The prohi.
bition question Is not party question
and never will be without organizing
new parties.

The Honorable Mr. John Sherman
on Saturday night before the election
in Ohio, gravely announced with N
assumed air of prophetic vision, that
if that state should go Republican, it
would have the president in 1884.
Now, to the unthinking man this
prediction would have no particularly
great influence on the Eeinds of the
Republican voters in Ohio, but when
We reflect that every Republican voter
in that state Is . politician, and that
nine out of every ten Of them want an
Office, We can see at once the potential
tendency of this appeal. It was, as If
the Honorable John had said, "now
boys, if you want an Office you must
stand in and elect Foraker and q Re-
publican legislature. But alas the
appeal had no effect upon one-tenth Of
the Republican voters, and Johns
hidden, burning hope and ambition to
bc President have been dashed to
pieces.

The Oregon City Enterprise reitera-
tes its statement made in former is-
s1e, that DR.. Chapman was the demo-
cratic candidate for mayor in Portland
when elected to that Office.
The truth Is that Thompson vas nona-
mated BY one wing Of the republican
party and Chapman BY another wing.
The wing that nominated Chapman
did not claim to be "indepeadsnt" IS
alleged by the Enterprise but on the
contrary claimed to Be the regular SIM
on-purs republican party. It is notori-
ous that the wing that nominated Dave
Thompson was the wing that has on
more than one occasion bolted and de-
clared themselves Independents, and
this wing is very weak as to Numbers
and could not alone give Thompson the
vote be received without much aid from
the democrats. The Enterprise says that
democrats made no nomination foy
mayor, and tacitIy endorsed Chapman.
How does it know that they tacitly en-
dOrsed chapmanl It simply gaesses ct
it. The truth is the democrats had no
candidate, and the Standard, the only
democratic paper in the city supported
Thompson as against Chapman which
shows that the party did not support
CAapman as party and that thsre was
no endorsemens Of him By the party.
OF course We would not be understood
- sasing that no individual democrat.
voted for Chapman, but we do say that
il Is not true that Chapman was the
candidate Of the democrats. And there
was and il no. reason Why the enter
prise should not know It.

We are led to these reflections in

of this state and surrounding territories,
but We have refrained from noticing

such an inexcusabls misrepresentation
- Ii did few days ago about the
history of congressional legislation--a
matter of which It's editor might be A.
we'll informed, living In Oregon, as ii
he lived in Washington City-we feel
called upon to call attention to il.
Here Is what the Nssrs said: "The
last Congress was Democratic, and il

By lowering the duty on imported WOOL
Let them have another chance and they
will take all the duty off imported
WOOL. This will close up every wsolez

Is absolutely insxeusabls. The msresi
school boy knows that the statement ID
false and withsat ssmblance Of truth
L was inspired either By purpose &c

gross and inexeusable ignorance. The
truth 10 that the last congress was nel
Democratic but was Republican in both
branches. The Democratic party did
not "hurt the wool interests of the
country by lowering the duty on inn
ported wool" for the reason that in The
senate there were 81 Republican sena-
tors and one Democratic senator wht
voted for the bill to reduce the duty
while % Democrats and 2 Republicans
voted against it. In the house there
we're l39 Republicans and Is Demo
crats who voted for it. and los Demo-
Gratis and 10 Republicans who voted
against 1t. This shows what party i
responsible for the reduction. Il i
due to candor and truth to say that ths
Democratic ground Of opposition va.
because there was no provision in ths
bill for . corresponding reduction on
imported WOODEN goods, hence the 70

and the importer Of foreign wool. W.
hope the NetUs will have the cander tc
correct the above statement.
