ALARMIsTs.

Protectionists are hewllng around about
how the democrats are going to ruin the
industries Of the country by reduction OF
the tariff duties. The wheels OF our man.
ufacturing establishments are 10 become
still, Desolatien and poverty are to reign
supreme In cur once fair land. ldleness
and indolence are to take the place Of busy
activity and thrift,and the country Is gen
orally to go to the dogs. Gentle reader
did you know that all this hue and cry and
hldeOus din are raised merely To scare the
voters OF the country and distract their at
tention from the plain, vital issue of the
day Soaring vsters Is an old trick of the
republicans, -Four years ago they labored
long, and with zeal worthy Of better
cause, to scare the voters Of the country
into electing Blaine, but their raw-head-
aad-bleody bones thunder shook net the
determination of the voters to elect Cleye.
land The veters were told by these
alarmists that In case Cleveland were
elected the financial standing of our coun'
try would be ruined, the national credit
would be broken down, the rebel debt
would be paid out Of the national treasury
rebels would be Pensionsd, the negro would
be re-enslaved, and many other dire ca
lamities were to follow in the train OF
democratic success. Many, very many
voters of timid nature all over the coun.
try were deferred from veting for Cleve'
land on account Of these alarming predic'
tions. But there were enough OF those
who knew their duty and dared to do II te
elect Gle veland, and what has been tho re
suit Not single prediction made BY
these alarmists has come to pass. The
financial standing of the country has i'm
proved aRd grown stronger, the nationa
credit is strengthened, the rebel debt hai
not been paid, rebels have not been pen
sioned,the negrO's freedom is more secure
under Cleveland than 1t would have beer
kinder Blaine, and more Of them have beer
appointed to public Office than under any
two republican presidents, peace and pros
perity have held healthful sway all ove'
the land. Now these men who talk aboa'
the ruin that Is to fcllew the reduction o
the tariff are simply trying TO scare thu
voters, but they will fail as they did in 1854

A NEW CHIEF JUSTICE.

President Cleveland has nominated
Melville Weston Fuller, of Chicago, to be
Chief Justice of the Supreme Court Of the
United States. His nomination is regard
ed with great satisfaction by men of all
parties. He, in every respect, is fitted to
Gll that high Office. He was born in Au-
gusta, Maine, February nth, 1885, and
graduated in Bowdoin in 1853, Minister
Phelps being his cIassmate. After study
ing law at Bangor, and attending lectures
at Harvard, Fuller went to Chicago. His
ability was speedily recognized, and for
thirty years he mas won distinction among
the foremost of the bar. He has been
prominent at several democratic national
conventions, and in 1860 was selected to
deliver an address to Stephen A. Doug
lass. In his practice in the supreme court
of the United States, Fuller has frequently
come in contact with Edmunds, Thurman
and other great lawyers, but has never
failed to hold his own against the greatest
of them. He is familiar with the decisions
of the court and especially Oh all consti-
tutional questions.
When Fuller was informed Of his nom
ination he was overwhelmed with surprise.

WHAT THEY SAY.

la cur last issue we called attention tc
the fact that the Herald DisSSmisafor oi
this city had received printed article en-
titled "woOl," written by Washington
Belt, Of New York City, and published u
as though written by some farmer" and
addressed to that paper, Most of the pa
pers throughout the state received II, and
here is what some of them say about the

Belt instead of Farmer" The Benton
Leadey Gays:
"The Joke is seen when we say that the
Albany IIerald prints the whole OF the ar
ticle on its editorial page over the sigma
ture Of @farmsr." These New York farm.
ers have a sly way of editing Oregon
newspapers"
The Corvallis Gazette says;
This Office Is in receipt of pamphlet,
entitled wool" in letter form from New
York. II Is signed "WashiRgton Bslt." II
Is aIso noticed that some Oregon papers
have printed tho same thing in their edi.
torial columns as editorial correspondence
using a different signature and making Il
read as II written BY some farmer espe-
cially for their use
The Eugene Journal says
"The Albany HeYaLi publishes the cir
cular letter of Washington Belt, Of New
York City,o the wool question, which we
received from him about three days ago
and which will be found In this issue oi
the Journal, but the Albany paper leaves
off the date and signature and signs II

com munication is n local affair originated
by some one in that neighborhood."
Our neighsor doubtless intended Il
make its readers believe that FARMERS" o.
Linn county were going to make war on
the Mills bill, but the people cannot b:
deceived any longer ia this way. Th'
farmers want tariff reduction, whethe
they be democrats or republicans.

A few days more and Congress will
take up the tariff bill, item by item, and
pass upon each separately. Then Con.
gressmen, who have been hiding behind
vague expressions as to their views will
be compelled to cOme to the front and
show their hands. OF course the Mills
bill will be amended in many unimpOrtant
points. We expect to see part Of the
duty restored to wool and some other
changes made, after which we believe the
bill will pass the house.

AN OLD PAPER,

Mr. V. II. Caldwell has shown US copy
ofthe New Yerk W'eekly Ne1Vs, dated Au-
gust nth, 1866. 1t contains lSng report
made by A. J. Rogers, member Of the ia
dietary committee of the lower house of
Congress, on the question as to whether
Jefferson Davis was connected with the
plot to assassinate President Lincoln, a
letter from J. s. Black and many other in
teresting articles appropriate to that day.

Preachers whS go into politics rarely
fail to make mistakes. This truth has
been exempli6ed in scores of cases over
and over again, and genoa ally results in
greatly reducing their influence to do good.
Rev. ]. d. Driver made a speech before a
republican club in East Portland the other
day, in which he says: democrats, if
they could, would admit Utah and poly
gamy into the sistsrhood of states" New,
we desire to call attention to the fact that
nobody is proposing to admit Utah and
polygamy into the Union. The Rev.gen
tleman has nothing in the world to base
his statement on that democrats want
polygamy admitted into the Union. He
also brandishes the "bloody shirt" with a
vigor that puts Harvey Scott to blush even
at his best. Shame on the man whc pros.
titutes his high calling to. such ignobls
uses.We often hear preachers descant upon
the siafuIness of the politician, In resOrtine
to misrepresentation and unfair dealing
bat when a preacher enters the arena ei
politics, he, as a rule, COMMITS these same
offences about the first thing he does.

Wages per week.

And so on through all the industrial
pursuits, labor in free trade England com.
mands higher wages than in Germany
where a high protective tariff prevails. A
comparison between England and the fol.
lowing protection countries shows the
same result in greater or less degree
France, Spain, Austria. Russia, Italy and
other protection ceuntries. All of which
shows the utter fallacy of the claim that
protection gives high wages.
The state rights democrat. [volume] (Albany, Linn County, Oregon) 1865-1900, 1888-05-04

There Is no issue of free trade befors
the people. This is the false cry of alarm
of those who fear they are about to lose q
coed thing which they enjoy at the ex.
psnse of some one else. The real issue Is
whether We are to have cheap clothing
and other Of the necessaries of life, OF
whether we will have cheap whisky and
tobacco Take your choice.

BIZ NOT DECEIVED.

Democrats of Linn county, be not de-
ceived by the honied words of republicans,
spoken to induce yon to scratch your
ticket. This is presidential year. The
election in this county is of far greater
Importance than one may at first i'm agine.
If the democratic majority 10 reduced, re-
publicans will say that 1t is indicative of
unpopularity of the national administra-
ton of President Cleveland. Republicans
will fight this fall as they never fought
before to elect a president. If they should
elect part of their ticket in this county
they would throw up their hats in the face
of the very democrats who helped them,
and say it meant Blaine for President
Democrats, how would you like this Be
not deceived by sweet, oily words. Stand
up for our whole ticket and let us make a
clean, old fashioned sweep. Lay aside all
personal considerations and prejudices
and VOTE the whole ticket. Rememser
when you vote against demccratic can
didatr, you are voting against the demo-
cratic party to that extent. Republicans
are counting on solid vote They will
not scratch. It's their presidential year.

for chief justice of the supreme court
to-day. lie was born in Augusta,
Maine, in February, 1888. lie gradua.

led law with his uncle and com.
menced the practice of his profession
in 1856 at Augusta. From there he
went to Chicago, where his worth
was soon recognized and he was ap,
pointed to many honorable positions
In 1858 he married Calista o. Rey.
nols, and after her decease, Mary
Ellen Coolbaugh, who is mother Of
his eight daughters. He was ten.
dered successfully the sOlicitor-gen'
eralship, position in the civil service
commission and the interstate com.
mission, and then place on the Paoi-
flc Railroad commission. None OF
these places were acceptable to Mr..
Fuller. Mr.. Fuller presented the
claims of Chicago TO the National
Democratic Committee at its recent
meeting in this city for the honor of
entertaining the convention of this
year. BY this appointment the seventh
judicial circuit, which has not been
represented in the supreme bench
since the late. Judge Davis resigned,
again procures representation.
The appointment of Fuller as chief
justice gives general satisfaction TO
all parties. lie is considered safe
aud very talented man, abundantly
equipped for the distinguished posi-
ton, though never active in political
fights aud wrangles. Jul. "a
