HoRR ON THE TARIFF.
The Opera House Packed Friday
Evening to Hear Horr.

The Opera house was crowded
with the largest political audience.
of the season, to hear Hon. r. G.
Horr's great speech on national pol
itics.
The silver-haired veteran Repub-
lican was escorted in a carriage, to
Reeds by E. M. Waite, president
of the Salem Republican club, and
the Second Regiment band dis
coursed aweet music for the occa-
sion.
THE STAGE
was profusely decorated by that
gallant young Republican, j. j.
Fitzgerald, secretary of the club.
Immense bouquets of Marshal Neil
and Jacqueminot roses almost hid
from view the score Of Republican
veterans who occupied seats on the
stage. The U. S. flag, without
which Republican meeting is not
complete, hung everywhere and
immense applause greeted the ro-
tund form of the speaker as he
stepped forward and was intro
duced by Mr.. Waite.
HIS SPEECH
was punctuated with wit and ap-
plause. He said he was one of the
founders of the Republican party
and knew the history of the party
pretty well. He also knew as much
of the history of the Democratic
p ,rty as any good Democrat cared
to have him mention in public. He
would not refer to Democrats as
tariff reformers, but simply as free
traders. He would not use the
term reformers as it tended to mix
up such men as Dave Hill and
Grover Cleveland with Martin
Luther, Melanchthon and John
Brown,
He proceeded to illustrate the
difference between the Democratic
position for revenue tariff, and the
Republican position for protective
tariff. He called on tariff reformers
to name any article that had been
manufactured on large scale in
this country that had not been
cheapened to the consumer. There
was no response, tho the speaker
called repeatedly for single article.
He showed how under protective
tariffs salt, nails, steel rails, hard
ware, farming implements, axes,
crockery were cheapened under high
duties. Under protective tariff we
made S6S, 100000 worth of silk goods
last year, employing 10000 people at
this work alone, and cheapened it
more than one-half and cotton goods
were sold at far less than in free
trade times from 1850 to 1860.
The speech was great event for
Salem Republicans and leaves the
best possible feeling in the ranks of
the party here.

never be prosecuted, as is sometimes
the case now; in fact too often for
the good of the tax. payers of this
County.
am also in favor of cutting down
the clerks and sheriff's fees in this
county. 1t is only within the last
three or four years that the salaries
of these offices have got to be larger
than they should be. They have got
80 on account of the growth and
increased business of the county,
Ten years ago we graded down the
tees of the clerks and sheriffs of this
county twenty-five per cent. L
helped to do it then. This is a
practical question, and it is one we
must look outfor from time to time,so
that these officers shall receive only
reasonable compensation for the
services that they render. Any man
whom you may elect to those offices
will take what the law allows him,
and the remedy for that evil lies
with the legislature.
1t has been circulated that said
some of the officers stole from the
taxpayers. That was a mis-quota-
ton. I did not say that at Macleay,
and 1 have not said it anywhere else.
What 1 did say was this; that some
of the legislation of this state as
carried on was robbing the people,
and said that theTramp law robbed
the taxpayers of this county and
the people of the state of Oregon,
and 1t did. Such legislation should
be avoided in the future, and to
this end laws should be carefully
studied before being passed.
There is another thing desire to
call attention to: Our legislatures
time is too much taken up with
other matters than discussing the
vital questions that should be dis
cussed there in order that the people
of this country may be benefited.
There is too much time taken up in
election of United States senators,
railroad commissioners, etc, and |
am in favor of amending the con-
stitution so that the United States
senators of the state of Oregon, and
all other officers shall be voted for,
and elected by direct vote of the
people. Then the people will pass
upon them the same as they will
pass upon us, and then your legis-
lators can put in the forty days
looking into the details of measures
that will be to your best interests,
and the best interests of our state at
large.

MIR. FoRD'S REMARKS.

MIX. FORl)' > Marks.
Mr.. Ford, after mentioning some of
the issues between the parties of a
national character, said that what
we all desired was the best possible
government at the least cost which
should be equally borne by all alike.
Now as to the best way for max
ing the wealthy man bear his just
proportion of the burden of taxa
ton, we have been experimenting
on that for many years. 1t IS fact
we'll understood by all that the
wealthy men and corporations do
escape paying their just share. My
theory is that we must have what is
commonly known as precinct asses
sors for the purpose of getting at the
property throughout the counties.
Having smaller districts to cover,
of course they would naturally be
more familiar with all the taxable
property in each precinct, and know
better the value Of the same. This
system of precinct or township as
SCISSORS, as it is sometimes called, will
cost no more, and / believe not so
much as our present system. 1t is
already in operation in many of the
states of this Union and it works
well.
Permit me to say also that 1 am
in favor of county prosecuting at
torneys instead Of these expensive
district attorneys, which are costing
the counties entirely too much
money. We have to pay $2l5O.0C
as fees for that officer in Marion
county alone besides the salary, and
we pay in addition to these extrava-
CANT fees, salary of 100000 pei
year to district attorneys IN this
state.
1 am in favor of having county
prosecuting attorneys, reducing the
fees 80 that he will receive a reason
able compensation for his services,
say not to exceed 100000 a year.
Besides this saving as 10 fees and
salary, it will also be relief from
unnecessary prosecutions, which of
ten occur from the fact that the dis
trict attorney often lives in another
county, and is not acquainted with
the parties, aud perhaps not famil'
lar with the details of the case be
fore it is brought into court. He
could have full information and
properly prosecute all such cases al
should be prosecuted, and mar
who has not violated the law Deed

minutes both engines and the en-
tire department were flying thro'

Before their arrival the employ es
had the pumps working aud three
inch hose playing on the flames
checked their spread. The engines
got streams on the buildings very
rapidly aud the stitf southeast wind
rendered the situation an extremely
dangerous one, as the wool drying
room where the fire originated from
steam pipes was at the southeast
corner. The timely arrival Of the

Of great satisfaction and caused a

WHAT REPUBLICANS SAY.
Remarks of Our Legislative Can
didates at Woodburn
Friday.

Samuel Layman, Republican can
didate on the representative ticket
for Marion county, being at his home
and speaking to his neighbors, de-
ferred any argument on the political
issues Of the day.
t. t. GEER's SPEECH.
Hon. T. 7. Geer, being pressed for
time, was compelled to say about
six things in five minutes. On the
tariff question he said that an old
German at Mehama had made the
strongest protection speech he ever
heard. He said that the cheapest
pants he could get in that country
was 81. 25 per pair; he paid the same
for his shirts that he did here; we
asked him what his wages were,
and he said $4,000 year, and he
had to get up at three o'clock in the
morning. The very same pants that
he paid $1.25 for there, only cost us
here from seventy-five cents to one
dollar.
Now the young gentleman on my
right (referring to John Starr says
that he is in favor of making the
clerks office a salleried Office. He
does not know that when Mr.. Ford
and l were in the legislature twelve
years ago, we favored making that
a salaried office. The supreme
court of this state decided that it
was unconstitutional.
While on this campaign 1 have
been attacked on the subject of my
railroad bill. 1 am proud to say that
[ was the author of that bill. Mr.
Jory says that the bill is full of loop
holes. have to say that it is the
law of Iowa, and it has been pro
nounced good there. The railroad
company employed the best counsel
possible for the purpose of defeating
that law, and it has stood the test,
and it is the saving of thousands of
dollars to the people of Oregon to-
day.
