OREGON BEATS rnE RECORD.

Corporal I amer achieved quite record as
surplus smasher. Senator Blair made big
ger showing. but il must be remembered that
he had better chance than the Brooklyn
soldier. But both Of these gentlemen have
been thrown so far in the shade by Senator
Dolph Of Oregon that hereafter they must be
clasSed as mere amateurs.
The bills already introduced by the senator
at this session Of congress are remarkable in
more ways than one. But their notabl. char
acteristie is the magnificent disregard they show
for the national treasury. The total excnditur'
es that they call for are nearly $4,000, 600,
most Of which is for coast deicnses; but some
millions are, Of course, intended for the Inn
provement Of Oregon. II every senator were
to introduce bills calling for equal expeniitur-
es, the amount would about equal the cost o
the civil war and be far greater than the
amount Of the national debt ever was.
But great as senator polph's achievement
in the surplus smashing line are. We must re-
member that the session is only a month old
He has probably just 60, warmed up TO hi
work. lie may yet run his bills up 10 the bil
lion mark unailed But even his preser
achievements entilie him to rank as the ''boss

sTlLLTnEY COME.

Most assuredly the hop grower should have
all the protection" he can get since lie pays
protection" on sugar. rice, glassware. iron.
ssssi. wOOicns, and four thousaad other arti-
cles. That is the hop grower should have /.
protection" il there are any foreign hop fields
10 be protectected against. Possibly there ar,
no foreign competitions to be protected against
in the matter Of hops, the same as farmer,
products generally. As the wool grower has
been bamboozled; corn, wheat, cattle. and hog
producers hugely bamboozled by the tariffs
would it not be good idea TO knock the tariff
out completely, and thereby close 10 the ave-
nue. through which this BAN boozling business
is carried on-S,ayton S~H. This from a
man who says. '.the democratic ticket or party
has never been according to our way Of think
ing" Is significant Of the fact that many men
all over the country. who have heretofore been
in the habit Of acting and thinkingas repnbli-
cans are clambering up out Of the old ru,s and
beginning to think just like tariff refomers do.
We congratulate Bro McGill.

all this because the DEMocRAr has seem

Pennoyer and to set out at length the rea-
sons why we think so. The Pilof does not
controvert single statement the DEMoerai
made in support of the belief that the
Governor Is the most available man the
Democrats can select. The Pi7ot's talk
about "worship of Governor Pennoyer" is
veriest nonsense. Not a word iE our ar
ticle jnstifes such charge. The DEMO
GRAFT Is too independent to call out such
remarks from our contemporary. The
Governor makes his mistakes as other
Governors of the state have done. The
DEMOCRAT regrets that he did not veto the
wagon road swindles. Of course the peo-
pie who received these large appropria-
tions, but were pleased to receive them
but the DEMocRAr believes such
uses of public funds, raised BY faxing N

Il must be done in some other way than by
a reduction OF duties on either raw mate.
rails or manufacturers products.
There Is every reason why tals should
be the outcome OF the recent tariff hear
ings. During the week spent by the com.
mittee In listening to arguments on this
subject nearly all The arguments presented
were by those whose interests arc already
highly protected, and who very naturally
want more protection, Only those who
profit by high duties appeared and their
arguments were all in one direction. The
few who have made fortunes hv high
tariff made interested appeals for bigger
fortunes and the millions who pay the high
duties were not heard at ALL
Il can hardly be claimed with justic,
that this resulted from no fault OF the com
mittee. The hearings were arranged By
schedules. she iron and steel Interest
were heard one day, the sugar refner'
were allotted another and so on through
the list. The allotment Of time to the va
rious protected interests was made in
way to create the impression that onl,
those directly interested would be given
hearing. AS result even those who IA
vored lower duties and free raw material
and could afford trip to Washington wer
r not encouraged to make the trip. TIL
: hearings were altogether one sided an

When the democrats were In he mrjor-
ity In the lower house Of congress, Speaker
Reed held the following as his views as to
what constitutes quorum 10 do business
IN that body; "The constitutional idea OF
a aquorum is not the physical presence of a
majority of the house, but majority OF
the members present and participating in
the business of the house." His views
now as expressed the other day in making
n decision from the chair is just the same
as the above with the little word nOf left
out which makes his views just the exact
opposite of what they are now. The dem
ocrsts were in power then and out now,
but they endorsed Reeds views then and
have not changed, while he has changed
simply because the exigencies surrounding
his party demand II and for no other rea-
son. In the near fumre this decision will
come home TO roost.
