APPROACHING FREE TRADE.

BY degrees the OyegOnran is becoming a
free trade" organ. british gold" must be
to Il motive. an inspiration. II has evident
y been reading Golden Club literature. The
seductive influence Of reciprocal trade with
foreign nations has captured that paper. Only
few days ago with a kird Of preaTanged
foruaIity it announced its support Of the dem
ocratie policy Of putting jute on the free list.
Nov with the same Iomality il announces its
support ofthe "free uade." "British gold
doctrine Of putting sugar on the free list, This
Is little less than treason 10 the doctrine Of
protection. II thinks there is great force
in Mr. BIaines argument before the. ways and
means committee that sugar should be pu
on the free list sat khe rcqHssf Of sOme Of tie
delegates from .SOsf6 and Central Ameriea
TO tie Pan A@srieaS ccHgyess, to eHcosrags
trade 1vufh those eoEnfries. How is this1 Is
Il true that this administration is to adopt
''free trade" at the back Of some foreign na-
tiOns Encourage trade with foreign nations'
That Is democratic pure and simple. II says
that sugar is an article Of universal domestic
consumption not produced in sufficient quanl;-
ties to supply the home demand and that a
duty upon il is tax pure and simple and
therefore should be put upon the free list.
Well then, let US extend the argument. Wool
and wooIen goods are articles Of universe
domestic consumption not produced in sufici
ent quantities to supply the home demand, and
a duty upon them is tax pure and simple,
therefore they should be put on the free list.
The same might be said Of jute sacks for grain,
and many other articles. Especially is this
true in very emphatic sense oftin plate which
is not produced in this country, and the re
publicans Instead Of moving to put this article
on the free fist are proposing to increase the
duty 10 very high one, The Oyegcsias
proposes to put raw sugar, which it calls raw
material, on the free list hut to retain the duty
on the refined article. Does any one fail to
see the motive here7 Il would protect the re-
fnep because they are mostly in the north
while the producers Of raw sugar are in fhe
south. The motive is purely sectional one.
That paper seems to be inspired by one mo
tive in all tariff legislation and that is to cripple
the south for the benefit Of the north, This is
all wrong So long as this governmen: is to
be paternal one, let all sections share equally
in is benefits.

-Four OF the Montana state senators are in
Portland. They are democrats and are away
from Montana for the purpose Of breaking a
quorum. This they are compelled to do to
thwart the auiocrat'e and outrageous rulings
OF the lieutenant governor whopraciiealIy rules
that democratic senator's have no rights which
republican senators are bound to respect. A
presiding officer who holds that seven is a
majority ofsixteen deserves to be held high
up to public seorn and contempt. This at
tempt to break quorum, instead Of being
"silly" as alleged BY the Herald is inspired by
the highes, considerations Of patriotism and
public duty.

Hon Amos J Cummings, who's himself :
congressman, writes 10 the New York San =
very interesting letter, showing shs different
treatment that the Senate and the House OF
Representatives give to matters affecting cco-
nomy. The Senate is rareless and liberal
to itself and employees, while the House is con.
daried on much more economical scale,
Messengers in the House receive Stroo 10
sIaoo per year. Those Of the Senate, having
much less 10 dc. receive sg44o, and Il ID so all
through tie list. The eighty four senators
employ forty Eve messengers, While the 3ss
members of tie House have only fly one.
Each senator, without regard to party. is al
owed a private secretary, paid for BY the
public. Even the shaving Of the senators Is
done by senatorial barber aud paid for out
Of The public treasury. The Senate Is now
proposing to drive the Supreme Court from
rooms il has occupied for years, to secure rooms
for committees that rarely meet. Without,
doubt the Senate Of this country Is anogating
TO itself privileges such as are enjoyed by the
aris,ocratic House Of Lords In England. When
the Constitution was framed, the dominance
Of the House of Representatives, directly rep
rssen,iug the people was thought to be secur.
ed by giving |, exclusive power to originate
revenue bills. But the longer terms Of sena-
tors, and the fact that they are not directly re
spOnsible to the people, have reversed what
the fathers intended. Senatorial terms should
be made shorter. -Four years Is long enough
for any representative Of public interests to nc,
without being instructed as to his duties by
his constituents. II the constitution were
amended 10 as 10 make senators elected by
popular vote, the Senate would be lcss a club
Of milllonaires than Il now is. and public in
terests would be much more faithfully repre-
senled.

TnE REASON Is PLAIN.


The Salem Journal says:
'sWhy not put sugar on the free list, as well
As tea and coffee7 Viii some cne give US a
good reason"
From republican stand point the answer
Is easy and the reason Of the answer is plain,
Sugar Is produced in large quantities in this
country, but the producers Of sugar here can
not compete with the cheap serviie labor in
Cuba and the South American and other
orsign sugar producing countries. Hence in
order to prevent ruin Of this highly importan,
home industry by putting it under the law Of
Stree trade" our lawmakers have placed duty
upon the imported article. See On the
contrary tea and coffee are not grown in the
United States at all and hence any duty placed
upon these articles would De simply that hated
democratic tariff for revenue only. Seer
