THE cost of living has materially in
creased in Portland within the last
three years. We will say nothing of
the higher prices of meat, ETC., but
call attention to the single item of
fire wood, Three years ago cord OF
fire wood cost 50 Is, and Cinnamon
would saw, split and carry it into the
cellar for so cents. Now cord costs
"a; the steam saw charges so cents a
cord to saw it, the Chinese demand IS
cents to split and house the wood. In
other words, wood in the cellar cost
three years ago So 25, and now the
housekeeper has to pay SIS %, an in
crease of 50 a cord. Another little
cheat that the wood choppers practice
is to supply sticks 3 feet 10 inches
in length ins stead of full four feet
Thus the consumer is cheated out Of
at least 80 cents worth of wood.-Port

As Seen by a Republican.
st. Louis Republican.


The Chicago Tribune, the leading
Republican paper of the West, says OF
Harrison, the Republican nominee for
President, that he is unpopular at
home and disliked abroad; not SUP.
ported by any German newspaper, OF
recognized by any German leader in
the United States; not numbering
among his close friends one man who
ever served with him in the Senate OF
the United States; hated in California
because he voted fourteen times against
the restriction Of Chinese immigration
opposed in his own State because he is
cold and distant in his manner, and
identified with every public act which
has ever been adopted which could
wound the sensibilities of voters moi
numbered among his own particular
clique in the Republican party; hav
ing strong support among politicians
and little among the rank and file O
the party" That appears to size uf
the Republican candidate about as &C
curately as any Democrat could hop,
to do it.

The King at Large.

Examiner.
The theory that Mr.. Blaine Is try
ing to "knife" the nominal candidate
for the Presidency is rapidly gaining
ground in the East We are reluctant
to believe such a thing-in fact, We
shall not believe it without fuller evil
dence But we are compelled to ad-
NIT that if Mr.. Blaine really desires to
help the Republican ticket his tongue
has lost its cunning. No such awful
succession OF blunders as that which
has followed his appearance ON the
stump ever struck CONSERVATION into
party before. The avalanche Of
'' facts an figgers, Co.," that was to
bury the Democrats
When
Back
bids fair to spare the Democratic
National Committee the necessity of
looking any further for campaign
literature.
Mr.. Blaine has had more than two
weeks to watch the effects of his first
trust torpedo, and. instead of trying to
repair the domages, he deliberately sets
off another right in the thick of his
friends. Reading from manuscript,
that there may be no possible chance
to allege haste or misreporting, he
announces that trusts have no
place in 4 national campaign"
Did the leader of the party ever
hear of body called the Chicago Con-
vention g? Did he ever read its plat
form, and, if SO, did he come across
this passage?
I'VE declare our opposition to all combina-
tions of capital organized into trusts or other
wise, TO control arbitrarily the condition of
trade among our citizens, and we recommend
to Congress and the State Legislatures in their
respective jurisdictions such legislation as will
prevent the execution of all schemes to oppress
the people by undue charges on their supplies
or by unjust rates for the transportation of
their produce to market"
The Republican National Conven-
ton had the singular mental weakness
to believe, or at least to say, that
trusts had II "place in national cam
paign." 1t called on Congress to dis
courage them by legislation. Now
that the master has come, however, of
course the platform is superseded.
Those toiling statesman who struggled
to win perspiring mob OF delegates
to their way of thinking had not
mastered the rudiments of politics.
Sly Mr.. Carnegie knew better how a
republic should be governed. He
took charge of the" Uncrowned King"
and instilled sound doctrines into his
willing ear.
1t is amusing to see i'll what lord
ly way Mr.. Blaine ignores the work of
the assembled wisdom of his party
and calmly markes out the plan of
campaign to suit himself and Mr..
Carnegie. Amusing, that is, to all
but the unfortunate effigy at Indian
apolis.

THE trusts and their organs continue
to howl loud and long about the awful
condition into which the laboring
classes will be plunged if the Mills bill,
or any other equally "free trade"
measure, should become law, and ar
que that they will be reduced to the
level of the poorly-paid, half-starved
labor Of free trade Europe. AS recent
Congressional investigations have
shown, many classes of labor in the
employ of trusts i'll the United States
can now, under Il high tariff Of an av-
erage Of Al 10 per cent. earn barely
enough to keep them from starving
as the Mills bill only contemplates a
reduction OF the tariff TO an average oi
40 per cent. and as wages in the pro-
| tected industries have decreased as the
tariff was increased, the protectionist
scare-crow loses its effectiveness. Tn,
fact of the case is: THE TARIFF DOES
NOT REGULATE WAGES: wages are regu
lated by demand and supply, and tin
capacity of the laborer to do his work
The tariff is the same i'll all parts q
the United States, yet wages VARY

THE g. q. p's. policy of protection
has been full of promises to the people
but weak in performance. 1t was Great
ed in the interest of rich, aristocratic
class, and protected that class, but it
has done little or nothing to protect
the poor. There are illustrations in
plenty in all parts of the country.
Take Andrew Carnegie, the iron king,
as an example. The tariff has made
him many times a millionaire. Do his
workingmen share in his phenomenal
prosperity? Ask them and see what
answer you get. During the last ten
years he has made i million year.
The high tariff has enabled him to do
it. But his wage-earners are no better
| off. They are not protected. When
they want an extra ten cents per day
they must strike for it. More than
that. when the owner of the works
wants to cut down their wages they
strike to prevent it, and then, after
weeks of enforced idleness, are COM
PEELED to succumb, or give way to Euro
pean pauper labor, imported duty free
The same can be truthfully said ol
nearly all of the great manufacturing
industries-capital is protected ut the

but which, nevertheless, conveyed
weight. l speak of Gov. Allen, and
speaking of this thing of having an
overflowing and redundant treasury,
that grand old man said in his magni-
ticent way: why, you might as well
undertake to keep IL powder house in
hell as to have an honest Government
with surplus in the treasury Uaugh-
ter and applause.) That was the truth
very forcibly expressed, and now can
appeal to you just to look at what Con-
gress is about and see whether or not
this is the truth. Why, my friends, |
saw the other day, in a paper, some
body who WIS reviewing speech that
had the honor TO make up there at
Port Huron, in Michigan, said that
Judge Thurman was wholly mistaken,
wholly mistaken in saying that there
would be any such surplus revenue in
tiiS tiSaeuiy hSNt Nt'l. NtiiJ VIVA
dered when saw that what could pos
sibly be the meaning OF it; but ] have
seen an explanation Of it since, in u
New York paper, and it means simply
this: Thf re are schemes on foot to
make apl ropriations to the amount of
sixty, or seventy, or eighty millions of
dollars, for which there is 10 necessity
whatever, and which is just throwing
away that much of the peoples money.
e That's so.) Well, if they proceed in
that way, if they take your money to
the amount of one hundred millions OF
dollars year, and then scatter it broad
cast to favorites for their benefit, and
not for the benefit of the people at
large, why, then, they can deplete the
treasury. Then, il they raised $780,
100000 of surplus II year, they could
sGuander it all. But that is not the
kind Of Government that our fore
fathers intended We should have. They
intended that we should have an hon
est, frugal, economical, Republican,
Democratic govcrnment-that is the
kind of government. (Applause.)
They never intended that We should
collect one hundred million dollars of
taxes and then squander it uselessly
and extravagantly without reason, in
order to get rid of the surplus. Is not
it necessary to stop this collection Of
this great surplus? If it is, and Grant,
in his message to Congress, said it was /;
and Arthur, in his message to Congress,
said it was; and Garfield, in his speech
in the House of Representatives, said
it was; and John Sherman, in his
speech the other day ut Cincinnati to
the Chamber of Commerce. said it was
ii all these people admit, and COM
mon sense teaches that it is necessary
to I, duce the surplus, the question is,
how can it be reduced? Is not the
plain answer, Reduce tho taxes" II
you reduce the taxes, then the Govern
ment will not collect more money than
it has II necessity for; but if you keep
up these high taxes, then the Govern
1nent continues to take mopey out OF
your pockets tor which it has no earth
ly use, and pile it up in the treasury
or sq...nder il away. Now, the issue
is fairly made up. The Democrats say
I. duce the taxes"

Wm. N. Eyarts.

1t has ever been said, until now it
has come to be Il " by-word" that our
brainiest men seldom become Presi-
dent. The examples that might be
mentioned in proof of this could be
numbered by the score. Although "A
strict partisan, Evarts is Just, and
friends and foe alike admit his great
ability. His is not the knowledge
that seeks to display itself in bluster,
but as orator, as statesman, rs scholar
or lawyer he has few equals. In 1885,
he defeated Levi 2. Morton and Il
whole field of others, of almost equal
prominence, for the United States
| Senate. The Evart's family halls
from Massachusetts, and jeremiah
Eyarts. the father of the subject of
this sketch, was one of the most prom
incnt of Boston's clergymen. VIM.
NJ. Eyarts was born in Boston, in
ISIS, and graduated at Yale College
in 1897. He studied law at the Har-
ward Law School and was admitted to
the bar in lSI0. He practiced law in
New York City and seon established
a lucrative practice and become cele-
brated for his profunditv and great
crudition. At the time OF General
Johnson's impeachment trial, Mr..
Evarts was the principal council and
succeeded Stanberry in the cabinet of
the first named. Before this, from
1S49 to 1858, he was United States
District Attorney. In 1871 he argued
the Republican side of the case for the
Electoral Commission. Upon the
accession of Hayes to the Presidential
chair, he entered the cabinet rs Sec
rotary of State. He is considered one
of the most brilliant of orators, and
his attendance is much sought for in
meetings OF all kinds. Many of his
speeches have been published, notably
his eulogy on Chief Justice Chase,
Centennial Grafton ut Philadelphia"
etc. Mr.. Evarts was honored in re-
ceiving the Degree of l.. l.. d., from
Union College in 1867, from Yale, his
Alma MASTER" in 1865, from Harvard
in 1870. In the Cleveland-B Blaine
campaign OF 1884, Mr.. Evarts re-
mained devoted to his Republican
principles and in the exciting canvass
of New York State was one of the
most prominent orators. After Mr..
Blaine's defeat, he announced his in
tention OF entering the arena for the
United States Senatorship from New
York State Like Webster, Mr.. Evarts
is very careless in his personal attire
and his shabby beaver hat surmount-
ing his long spare figure is often the
subject of comment.
