the solid south, where q million Repubn-
cans are counted for representation and
deprived by tricks or by violence of the
right of suffrage.
The general appearance of things is that
the Democratic party is SO desperate at
the prospect of being elected from power
and doomed to permanent dccadence and
gradual destruction, that there is a de-
termination to carry the southern plan of
counting votes into the north, and partic-
ularly in Indiana and New York and New
Jersey.
The presidents $4,000 subscription to
the Democratic campaign fund is prob
ably al arrangement with Brice to stimu-
late subscriptions. Grover may pay Cal
vim the money and he may not. He is
about the natural size of a ward politician
who would make q bogus subscription.
However, it is estimated that the squan-
dering of public money by Cleveland's
appointees ON the extension of Massachu-
setts avenue has helped the proprietor of
Red Top in his association of syndicates
so that he might afford to pay the money.
Nigilant Washington correspondents have
calculated that the improvement of the
value of Red Top real estate has not been
less than $40, 900. This beats Garland's
speculation, and Whitney SO rolls in
thousand dollar bills that no estimate can
be made of his extraordinary emoluments.
But no matter whether the Cleveland
$4,000 subscription is genuine or bogus,
the proclamation that the President has
poured out his money means that an i'm
mense corruption fund is wanted, and
that all the officeholders must follow the
example of the chief magistrate. The
first thing in the struggle to wrest In
diana from Harrison is the fapdoodle
lying that's going on, which is SO gross
that the comic element is introduced.
The first perjured liar who ONE to the
front says Gen. Harrison declared that 81
a day was enough for any workingman,
and perjured liars will of course corrobo-
rate the story. The next perjured liar
says Harrison declared he would put down
the riot and strike if he had to wade in
blood to his finger tips. Of course these
lies are SO monstrous that rational belief
in them is wholly impossible.
Next after lying is to he applied Brice's
Doodle, made up by the president and
other contributors-holders of various
trusts" The $40, 900 story about Cleve-
land will squeeze every postmaster, and
the pressure upon the whole army in the
civil service to give up money will be
made under a system of shabby lying,
and will be brutal beyond all example,
and the proceeds used in sheer briberies.
This is a spectacle that James Russell!
Lowell, from England. and George Will
lam Curtis, from Staten Island; Carl
Schurz, from the Baltic, and Henry Ward
Beecher, from his celestial abode, are ex-
pected to contemplate. 1t is the fruit of
the reform to which they contributed the
effusiveness of their genius and the
beauty of their reputation. And, in the
reserve, backed with Doodle, is tally sheet
forgery for the cause of Cleveland, Thur
man and reform.-Cincinnati Commercial

A Suggestive Bit of History.

This pc:ityo of protecting our industries
never became a party question until John
Q. Calhoun made it such after the cleo
ton of jackson, in 1928. 1t was then
that the present Democratic party, under
the leadership of Calhoun, was reorgan-
lied and based on three distinguishing
ideas or principles.
They were slavery, free trade and Sc
c%ession, or qualification. as it was then
called. Slavery and secession are dead,
and 1t would be well for us if free trade
were dead also. But it is not. It has
been revived and brought forth to be
again battled for in the canvass now cur
rent. While it is a matter of regret that
any considerable number of our fellow
citizens should believe in this doctrine,
yet on the other hand, it is to Republi-
cans a matter of congratulation that
their Democratic friends have at last
openly espoused their own cause, and
that as a consequence the lines have been
definitely drawn, and the opportunity
fairly given to win q victory that will
have somo significance. In considering
this question, it should be remembered
that the primary idea of a protective
tariff is today just what 1t was when the
government commenced.-Governor For
alSer in American Magazine.

Boston, Sept. 20.-Jack Dempsey is on

f"NYhen Kilrain was here q short time

he is all talk, one of the exhibition

The 'colored" mans name Is given as

used to color Patrick for the occasion.

H DAILY NEWS
Is a daily paper for busy people.

~ . eSASJ HNPSA Aoh-DASy PSSF&Ss
or all mankind the people of Chicago and the busy north
west are the busiest. And yet perhaps no equal number of peo-
pie are to be found who appreciate SO keenly the necessity of an
intelligent knowledge of the worlds daily doings. They reccg-
nize that they, more than anyone else, are the worlds providers
in many of the most important necessaries of life. How i'm
portant, then, that they should have their daily intelligence of
every event, the world over, which by any possibility can affect
their diversified commercial holdings. And in all the higher
interests of life where can be found a like number of people
more keenly appreciative of all that contributes to progress in
art, literature, science, religion, politics, and the thousand and
one things which make up modern civilization.
And yet, strange to say, right here in this great, busy north
west in its busy metropolis Chicago, there has taken place the
creation and development of that most ~cumtrous, unserviceable,
time-dearoyng thing, the i" blanketsheet newspaper. With the
blindness of very faulty this monstrosty of journalism, this breeder
of mental dyspepsia, has ~seadfastly imposed its mountain of I'M
threshed straw to the demand of the people for the winnowed grain
of fact. 1t was out of the very incongruousness of such a condition
of things that THE DAILY News had its birth. People wanted the
News,-all the news-but they demanded it apart from the over
Powering mass of the trivial and inconsequential. 1t is because
THE DAILY NEWS satisfactorily meets that demand that its chcula-
ton is over " ambition a-week.'

INCREASE OF TIE ToTE.

CroaEers may say what they please,
but the population Of Oregon is increas-
ing. This is evidenced in no better
way than by CONF a-.ng the vote sfthe
present year with that of former years.
In 1850 there were 20, $40 votes cast III
this state fer presidential nominees.
In 1854 there were s., $50 votes cast in
Oregon for presidential electors. In
1886 the vote for congressman aggrc q
ted 55, s54 In 1883, however, the eli
max is capped with grand total vote
of 90,207.
This shows an increase Of just fifty
pereentum since the vote of 1850 was
cast-a little less than eight years.
According to this, considering that the
population of the state has increased
in the same ratio as this vote, oregon's
present population is something over
100000 souls. This would show an in
crease in the population since 1880 Of
81 ,3S4 persons.
The number of votes cast has in
creased most rapidlp, probably, during
the past two years, since when it has
grown 529S votes. Oregon will more
than likely be entitled to two represen-
tatives in congress after the next deccn-
, NAL census, which will be taken ia

The recent decision of the supreme
eourt in favor of the Bell telephone
company did not end the troubles Of
that corporation with reference to its
chief patent. Tt has been compelled to
bring suit against the American Cush-
man telephone company for infringe
ment. The defendant puts in the
claim of priority of invention, and adj
duces instances of the main principle
as early as 1851. The case Is begun in
the United States district court at Chi
eago, and if the Bell company loses it
its patent becomes worthless. But the
Bell people represent $3.50, 900, 600, and
they have not lost case as yet

Many won't See It That way.

The publisher of newspaper has one
thing to sell, and one thing TO rent.
He has the newspaper to sell and the
space in the columns to rent. Can any
one inform us why he should be ex-
pected to give away either one or the
other? He can do so if he chooses, and
he does, as matter Of practical fact,
furnish a great deal of space rent free
But it does not follow that he ought to
be expected to do it. 1t ought TO be
recognized as a contribution exactly as
would the giving away of sugar or cof-
fee by the groceryman. But strange
to say it is not looked upon in that
light at all, yet everybody knows that
the existence of a newspaper depends
as much on the rent of its space and
the sale Of the paper as the merchants
snccess depends on the sale of his goods
instead of giving them away.-Er-
