: s,;atOr voorhees, says the Ex Presi-
ee.tHs Not i'm Accord with His Party

CINCINNATI. Feb. 27.-SenatoI
voorhees,, of Indiana. passed
through mere to- day on his way to
Hot Springs to take a months
treatment for the rheumatism. In
an interview he said -
"Thirteen years ago I made a
speech in Congress advocating the
free coinage of silver. My speech
was the keynote OF the campaign l
made a few months later. The
Democr secured majority of
twenty-three in the Legislature and
carried the State by 10000. Six
years later l made the same fight
and defeated General Harrison by
46 majority in the Legislature. On
that issue the people of Indiana
have stood by the Democracy and
constantly increased it's majority in
the Legislature from 23 to SO.
.'There is mistaken idea that the
people of the East are opposed to
it. The people of the East, the
masses are for free coinage. Were
I New Yorker l could go before
the people of that State, and feel
confident of election on such plat
form The money bags are opposed
to it, but they will learn that they
must not stand in the way of the
people,"
Being asked his opinion as to the
effect of Mr.. Cleveland's letter on
his Presidential prospects he said:-
81 have the greatest respect for
Mr.. Cleveland, but it would be as
difficult matter to carry Indiana
on a platform opposed to free coin
age of silver as it would be to carry
that State or Ohio on the nuliifica-
tion principles of Calhoun.
II have told Mr.. Cleveland that
he was mistaken in his views, and
that there would be free coinage of
silver long before and after he was
dead.
81 don't want to place myself in
an attitude of criticizing Mr.. Cleve-
land, but they are principles that
are undying to me, and nothing
will swerve me from the course l
laid out for myself long ago and to
which l have given unalterable al
legiance.
"Thcre are plenty of good men
from whom our party may choose ;
plenty of good men who are sound
on all the principles and the teach
ings cf the Democratic party. There
is Hill, for instance; then there is
Governor Gray, of our State.
Frequently / hear Chief Justice
Fuller spoken of, and there is Sena-
tor German and Mr.. Morrison. A
hundred others could be named"

Pianos Organs.

The improved method Of fastening strings of
Pianos, invented by us, is one of the most i'm
portant improvements ever made, making the
instrument more richly musical in tone, more
durable. and less liable to get out of toLe.
Both the Mason 4 Hamin Organs and
Pianos excel chiefly in that which is the chief
excellence in any musical instrument, quality
of tone. Other things though important, are
much less so than this. An instrument with
unmusicai tones cannot be eocd. Illustrated

BOARD OF TRADE IN SESSION.
The Salem Steamboat Question Being
Discussed d-The Beat is
Needed.

The board of trade is holding a
special meeting this afternoon, to
consider the adyisability of an indie
pendent steamer for the upper vii.
lamette. Such a boat, owned 10y
men in this city, and operated in a
business-like way, could make
money for her owners aud to the
people of the city, who have ship
ping to do. The river freighting is
but little more than half as high as
it is by rail. The boat being owned
by the people, would have q pride In
it aud patronize their home boat.
While such scheme would no
doubt pay well, yet there are some
difficulties to be overcome. The
steamers Northwest and Modoc,
which only draw thirteen to eighteen
inches, have not been able to run to
Salem during the summer months.
Those are about as light draught as
large DOdJ Cdu De ulauSJ anu De
manageable. A boat must have a
little hold on the water in order to
be steered. The boat suitable, or at
least, one which cannery men would
desire, would not be one suitable to
the wants of the city. They want
small steamer, manned by two per-
sons. Such boat as that could be
made a profitable investment,
Notwithstanding these disadvan-
tages, good sized boat would pay,
even if compelled to lay off for a
month or so, while the people are at
tue sea shore. 1t will only be few
years. time until the government
will recognize the Importance of the
Willamette river, and it will be made
navigable river the year round.
The company which starts in now
has the advantage over those which
may follow.

FROM EAST TO WEST.
Risks and Prospects Of Immigrants
Wealth Must BE N6lked
for Here.

Many letters are received i'm this
city by the hoard of trade, the post
master, news papers and business
men. Most of these letters give
little information as TO the means,
experience or capabilities of those
seeking to know of this western
c.untry. From that fact it is diff
cult to give the information that
would be suited to the capabilities of
any one individual. A young man
with ordinary sbility and with grit
and willing to adapt himself to Cir
cumstances, and one who does not
expect to find soft snap" and
ho is willing to do anything, need
not want for employment here. He
can in short time by the right
kind of work be out of the reach of
want. The inquiries come mostly
from men who do not know what
they want to do. An energetic man
with experience can do better in a
new and thriving country like Ore
gon, than he can in the older states,
and even the less active have a
better chance where competition is
not so great, but that class of men
will not do well any where.
Many of those now coming to
Oregon are poor men with families.
They must necessarily be deprived
of the comforts of life, or at least the
luxuries, for the first few years
while they are improving the small
farms on which many of them have
settled. Men coming to a new state
to make homes should have few
hundred dollars to start with.
Where they have not got it and are
in a state where there are few oppor-
tunities to get it, it is best for them
to come without any money, than
to stay where they can never be
able to get that luxury, however
hard they may work.
The Willamette valley is doubtless
capaple of sustaining more people
than any other body of land of the
same area in the United States.
The climate is adapted to the growth
of wider range of products; the
winters are mild and the summers
cool. These with the good health
in general, make it preferred land.
Salem is the center of this great
district and is destined to become a
large city. The location of the city
where the snow peaks can be seen
on any day, and in the midst of
growing grain and blooming trees
will make it an important city of
itself.

WORK TO CODfMENCE.-Engireei
H. B. Thielson, who has been in the
employ of the Astoria & South Coast
railroad for the past two years, su-
perintending the building of that
road. arrived in Salem this morning,
to begin the work surveying the
route of the electric line extension
to the fair grounds. Work will be
begun at once on this road and push
ed to completion. The company
has secured fine vestibule cars to
mt on the road and will make it a
hSt class road in every respect. To
accomplish that end the directors
have employed an engineer with
bright reputation as railroad engi-
neer, and one who has had much
experience in such work in Oregon
and other states. Iii less than two
months Salem will have all oppor-
tunitv TO send her people to the fair
ground by electric motor power, 1t
has been by hard work that this
sPendld addition to SaIem's street
milway system was secured. The
promoters had much to contend
with in making it success, but
they have come off victors and the
city appreciates their efforts. An
electric road running along side of
the Southern Pacific will be great
advertisement to Salem.

Or egOn Crop Report.

Government bulletin, crop-weath.
er, For week ending, Saturday,
March 2S, is as follows: The showers
during the week have kept the
soil very moist, so much so that in
the Willamette valley spring seed
ing and plowing has been greatly
retarded, seeding is farther advanced
in southern Oregon, while in Uma-
tilla county it is about one half
done. In Morrow county an
unusually large acreage will be sown.
Throughout eastern Oregon the
soil is we'll moistened and prospects
for excellent crops are good.
Thought the state winter wheat
is reported TO have stood
the winter well, to be of
good stand and color. There was
very little frozen out, In Clackamas
comfy the wheat is six inches high.
Grass has good staLt, bnt some
what slow in growth. In Yamhill
County acreage of oats, hay and
fruit increased, the latter very
largely so. There is slight shortage
in winter wheat.
Fruit: Fruit is very backward.
The season is very favorable to 1T
for it's being now retarded
insures it against possible late frost
almonds and apricots are
In bloom, iu many sections; pear
and CHEEKY buds swelling. Currant,
goose and strawberries In bloom,
Fruit prospects are indeed very
and if no unusual con-
titions arise the yield will be large.

ONLYNINE FOR MARCH.-During
the long month of March only nine
marriage licenses were issued from
the office of the clerk Of Marion
county. The month of October has
lust three times that number. The
clerk remarked to the reporter to-
day that business was getting decid-
edIy dull in the matrimonial lire.
In thriving city like Salem no
business should be allowed to lag.
It is probably in order to recommend
the matter to the board of trade.
