THE Portland Oregonian, stiff re-

THE Portland Oregonian, a stiff re-
publican newspaper, approves the
growth Of democracy in Washington.
In the last election the democrats cast
AZ per cent. of the vote and only elected
nine per cent. of members of the legisla-
ture which goes to show that the state is
badly IN need of redistricting. In a leg
islature of los members the republicans
had 81 majority on a joint ballot. The
Oregonian, in commenting on this stu
alton, says.
This is not healthy state of things. As
matter of Justice, the minority party
ought to have representation in legislation
more nearly in proportion to its popular
strength. The whole state will be the
gamer if the next Washington Legislature
shall have twenty-f or thirty democratic
members instead of nine. This will insure
the representation of the whole population
of the state upon committees and in legis-
lation. Last winter the state was prac
tically governed by persons representing
less than two-thirds of it. If the covering
of Washington with network of demo-
cratic clubs increases the representation of
the minority in the legislature, it will be q
public benefit.
But why should not the Washington
legislature have a democratic majority?
If thirty democratic members are good
for legislature, fifty or more are better.

HARVEY WArTERsoN, father of the
famous Kentucky editor, is seventy-nine
years old, but he is yet able to express
his opinions in very terse way. In
chatting with a Nashville American
reporter he referred to the national ad-
ministration and it's products as fol
lows:
The republican administration is terri
BILE nuisance to the business of the country.
It has produced a decentralization the like
of which have not seen in quarter of q
century, when no actual panic was in ex.
istence. Harrison is complete failure.
Even in his own party he does not enjoy
the respect his exalted position entities him
to. The God Almighty's truth is, said the
old gentleman as he grew indignant at
Harrison's elevation. Harrison is away
over his head. He was good enough law
yer in Indianapolis; but, bless my soul, he
ought never to have been made president OF
this country. He has shown quite recently
| in his attitude on the force bill that he il
powerless to influence in congress even hif
| own party's members. He is q rank and
ultra partisan.
And there's Reed, the speaker of tn,
house. Reed is trying to stock the card,
for his own reelection. But Reed ani
Harrison are both failures and their Owl
party has said it.
The old gentleman is quite right il
saying that Harrison is away over hi
head. And at the same time he did moi
have to 60 very far to get there.

THE investigation into the charges
against Commissioner Raum has devel-
oped some peculiar features. One Of the
charges was that the commissioner had
been selling stock in a refrigerator CON-
pany to employees in the pension Office.
One Of the investigating committee was
Congressman Smyser, of Ohio, who, as
it appears, is stakeholder in the COM
pany. When this was shown and his
resignation from the committee was
asked, he admitted that he was stock
holder in the company, but failed to see
how this could in any way influence the
honorable discharge of his duty. Con-
gresham Smyser either thinks the house
is made up of very credulous people or
he has very obtuse brain. At least he
failed to appreciate the delicacy of his
position. His views on such matters,
however, are quite in line with those Of
many of his republican colleagues. The
excellent traditions of the house of rep
resentatives have been pretty we'll for
gotten by Speaker Reed and the repub-
lican leaders, but Smyser's idea of the re-
lations of an Investigating committee is
the most unique feature of the session.

The furry in Wall street is the remote
outcome Of several year q violent specu-
lation in the Argentine Republic
For many months shrewd observers
have been satisfied that there would be
disastrous resnlts to the fast and furious
recklessuess <'f speculation in South
America, fed snd stimulated by British
financiers. The expansion of credit
which has been going ON there was
marvellous and could not have had any
other result than the sudden paralysis
which has at length stepped 1t.
simultaneously with this South Amer
ican irritation, the British ard American
markets. to say nothing OF those Of
France and of Germany, were piled high
wi ith Industrial securities, few Of
which were good, more doubtful, and
many irredeemably bad. What with new
railroads, extensions of old railroads.

coal mines, and countless miscellaneous
enterprises, the volume of securities

large sums Of real money we're invested,

greater portion Of this money was bor-
rowed and when pay day came the worth.
lessness of the stocks vas made apparent,
because the enterprises which they had
been bypothecated to promote, had not
yielded any profit and were not likely to
yield any
Meantime we were preparing for just
the condition that is upon US now in this
country. One class Of spectators hav,
been trying TO win money by buying
what they could not pay for, and another
class have been selling what they did no
possess and gambling on the possibilit.
Of buying 1t at such break in the market
as we have now.
Trusts, bonds, shares, all sorts Of en-.
terprlses, have commanded money freely
till there was no more money to be had
The bonds of the government hav,

Special Correspondence EVENING JOURNAL.
MILFORD, Nov, IA The people of
Sn ssex had a Democratic jubilee here
last night. 1t seemed as much Jubilee
OF the people as of the Democrats, for
they we're all there and ell in it. The
town was swarmei with people nearly all
day, but at 3 clock ia the evening the
streets were almost impossible for the
crowds of eager. excited, enthusiastic
happy people.
Banners, flags, bunting, Japanese Ian
teens, electric lights. candlebras and
flowers were seen in every direction.
Many hous were decorated and illumil :
ated, some of them very handsomely,
notably Hon. John w. Causey's and VI.
+. Causey's while all of them were decor
ated with good taste.
At . o'clock the procession. consisting
Of 6OO horsemen, gaily dressed and carrS-
ing banners, wreatns and transparencies
wagons filed with women, and bands. and
torchlight corps started from the rail-
way station, and going through the
beautiful lawn of the Causey residence
made complete circuit Of the town.
There was a great deal OF cheering, but
good order prevailed as the procession
went through the several streets, greeting
and sometimes humorously guying their
crestfallen but good natured Republican
opponents
After the circuit Of the town had been
made the procession disbanded and the
people gathered at the two stands to hear
the funeral orations at the obsequies
OF the Republican party Of Sussex At
the stand in front of the Central Hotel
which was handsomely decorated
with bunting and psrti-colored lanterns.
Governor-elect Reynolds was introduced

THE enthusiasm with which Cleveland
was welcomed and applauded at the
Thurman birthday dinner shows what
firm hold he has on the hearts and minds
of the people, he started the issue on
which the Republicans have met such q
disastrous defeat. He is the exemplar Of
the tariff reform Democrat. He is the
embodiment Of the movement on which
the Democratic party will win the
next campaign. He is the conspicuous
well known, tried and trusted leader, to
whom the Democrats always look when
they think Of beginning . campaign. If
the Democrats were to nominate any
other leader, they would make the same
mistake they made in selecting an avail
able leader when they passed their
strong and natural leader. Tilden, and
took up Hancock Tilden was, like
Cleveland, leader; Hancock was Sc
lected in the ain hope that he might
prove a leader.
