In another column we publish commun-
ication from an old and esteemed friend,
Jacob Newman. calling us TO account for
saying that under certain circumstances the
DEMocRAT would rejoice in the defeat Of
the democratic party. This is what we
said; "But the DEMOCRAT would expect
and hope for the defeat Of the party If II
should now desert It's tariff views" And
the following Is the way our friend Newman
oonstrues our words.
THAT in case the democrats should pre-.
fer other legislation that the people art
calling for and not make the tariff the sole
issue you (the DRMocRAT) want to see the
democrats beat"
Now, every reader though wayfarine
man. win see that what the DENocRAT said
is radically different from what our cores
pondent und ,rstood us to say, The DEM
ocRAT said nothing ut all about ''othel
Legislation. .that.the.people ac largely call
ing or nor single word about hoping
for tho defeat of the party in case it did no
make the tariff tho sole issue in the mex
campaign. The DEMooRAr has not hereto
fore, and does not now, insist that tn
tariff should be made the sois issue. Blu
il does believe that il is now, and should b
continued the paramount issue in the com
ng campaign, for the reason that all tn
trusts in the land of which the people s.
loudly and justly complain have their sea
Of power in the tariff scheme of the country
Bro Newman must have seen the report
sent out all over the country to the effec
that the election of Crisp for speaker was
protection victory and that he and thos
whom he plaoed..in the lead would eithe
change the attitude of the party by maxim,
u protection party or by adopting do
nothing policy in reference to the tariff. |
was against this course that the DEMocRA1
protested and caused us TO say that in sucl
case the party ought to he defeated. +
basely desert and turn traitor now to il
long cherished policy of war, mrelentinl
war, against the evil which such tariff breed
and feedswould bring everlasting defeat /,
the democratic party and it would richl!
deserve il.

JEPFERsoNIAN DEMOCRACY,
Hamilton Jan 2, 1892.

Hamilton Jan 2. 1892.
Editors Democrat:
! see lin the lastweeks DEMocRAT-"We af-
firm That in case the democrats should pre-
for other legislation that the people are
largely calling for and not make the tariff
the sole issue, then you want to see the
democrats beat, | hope you will modify
your position. will be slow TO believe that
you will leave the party or hope for its de-
feat when it..ha been the peoples party,
you may say, ever since we have had a gov
enment, hut at present it seems 10 have
left its ancient moorings and accepts Grover
Cleveland Is democracy tariff reform. Now
suppose we examine our Jeffersonian dem
ocracy and zee il the ex-president is q rep
resentative of the democracy Of our fathers,
or has the war changed the democracy of
the United States that the great principles
of the grand old peoples party TO reduc-
tion of the.tariff. Mills proposed reduc-
ton of 41<S.per.cent .or s65, 900 900, every
republican voted against the.rcduction right
away. The Mckinley bill was introduced
and it proposed a reduction Of about $40
000, 900 and every democrat voted against
the Mckinley bill. 1t put more articles on
the free list than did the Mills bill but still
the democrats voted against every clause
and section of the bill. So it has been for
over 100 years that we have been taxed
with protection of infant industries. But
how was it before the war. The south
were free traders, the west was in favor o:
protection sufficient to run the government,
the north and east with incidental protec-
ton.
Now am in favor of something tangible.
Give us something that will relieve the
wants of our people. Let us remove the
combines and trusts and extricatc our
people fIom the plutocrat's grasp, let us
stand by democracy, equal and exact justice
to all, special privileges to none, opposition
to national banks, free and unlimited coin
age Of gold and silver Strike for the right
and stay with it. Politicians may sink it
for the present 5ut it will rise again. Truth
will prevail

The Sidfssmd treats with contempt and
ridicLle the suggestion made by the
farmers alliance of Kansas that the COVER
nor Of that state should call the legislature
together for the purpose of electing q
United States senator TO fill the vacancy
oeeasioned by the death of Plumb. 1t Is
q little odd that members of the farmers
alliance Ia that state should waste breath
They should know that the republicans In
the northwest will not comply with so just
a demand. The legislature Is farmers al
lance, the governor Is republican. This
tells the whole tale, Notwithstanding il ai-
fords the StatesmaH an opportunity to In
dulge in one OF its CHARACTERISTIC sneers II
the farmers alliance.

Republican leaders In Ohio have per-
fected a scheme of gerrymandering the
congressional districts in that state by
which that party will secure IS out Of the
IL districts Of the state, leaving the demo
Gratis 6. The DEMOCRAT declared the
gerrymandering made by the democrats
in that state two years ago little less lhan a
crime. This move of the republicans, when
consummated will be equally heinous
We trust that the 0regOaian and other or
gans of that party will now raise 'heii
voice and denounce this outrage with the
same vehemence that characterized their
denunciatlon Of the democratic outrage oi
two years ago, and particularly will the
whole public expect President Harrison tc
send In message TO congress inviting the
attention of that august body to this move
with such choice words Of virtuous indig-
nation as were used ia his late message
concerning the Michigan gerrymander.

The DEMOCRAT takes this occasion TO
inform the East OregoHian that 1t Is no. on
account Of the spirit OF "proteciion" that
II expressed itself in favor of free coinage
Of silver to the extent of the American
product. The DEMOCRAT would restrict
1t to the American product for several
reasons. The first is because It Is unwise
to coin into legal tender money the. bullion
of Grea, Britain, Germany, Russia and
other commercial nations that reject Il
themse.vs II VIC should adopt unlimi-
ted coinage our country would be made
the dumping ground Of the rejected silver
bullion of those countries and there would
belgreat fears that II could not be ffoated at
par so long az It is degraded by the conn
tries named. II is only to protect the
parity Cf gold and silver that the DEMO
GRAFT would thus limit the coinage TO the
American product. No, sir, no such''pro-
lection" for the DEMocAT. The DEMO
Graf believes in fyOtSction fer the masst 6
and opposes all protection" for the classes

derstands us

A so-ca.led ''reform" journal refuses to
discuss the tariff question on the ground
that such discussion would be improbable.
1t says that We have had little else for the
last century than the discussion of that
question, and yet the masses know less
about It than they did In 1860. This is a
strange statement to come from any one
at all conversant with the history OF the
tariff question. Every intelligent man
knows that the question has been more
extensively and in'elIigentIy discussed dur
ing the last four years than In the period
Of the entire history of the country prior
to 1884, II Is further known that people
know f9r more about the tariff question
now than ever before. The man who IL
too chicken-hearied 10 investigate the
mons,rous evils of tariff protection must
clear the way or be crushed beneath the
Juggcrnaut wheels of tariff agitation and
and discussion.

The OsegOaian very beautifully character.
izes the courage Of Governor Hill az mag
nifcent nerve" Very well, a rose by any
other name would smell as sweet. But truly
the man who has the skill, courage, and
foresight 10 checkmate the republican lead
ers Of New York for a period of eight years
without Il single failure is entitled TO be
called one of magnificent nerve" That
paper joins with clique Of eastern "calam-
ity" fellows in calling Hill dangerous man
but no one fears Hill except republican
leaders, and for that reason it were con-
summation devoutly to be wished for that
the country was full Of such dangerous
men.

A dispatch from Atlanta Georgia s

The state executive committee Of alliance
does not want the peoples party. The de-
Velopments of today settled that conclusiyely
The committee, which met in Atlanta today
passed no resolution declaring this fact, but
the complexion of the committee appointed
TO attend the national convention. where
the peoples party will be passed upon,
leaves no room for doubt on this point.
The most importent work done was the
election Of delegates TO the national alliance
convention. which meets in st Louis, Feb.
ruary ~. This convention will be an i'm.
portant one, as the third party matter was
referred TO it, The delegates were instruct.
ed TO vote as a unit on all questions coming
before the convention. Every one Of the
gentlemen is against the third party.

There Is nothing that creates so much
alarm among administration republicans
as the reported statement of Holman, chair
man OF the appropriation committee. that
he intends to cut down the appropriations
of this congress one hundred millions be-
low that of tho last congress. II Is mat
ter of much qualification to see these
gentry so much disturbed. 1t augurs we'll
for the tax payers of the country. The
people are willing to be taxed to pay the
expenses of government economically ad-
minis,ered, but they protest against the
extravaganza of the 'billioE dollar" con-
gress.

II is noticeable that republicans all over
the country are becoming restless over the
condition Of things in their party as to a
presidential candidate. They feel keenly
the humiliation heaped upon the party by
this waiting for Blaine and Harrison to de-
ternine for and on behalf Of FIVE million
voters which one Of the two shall be the
candidate Of the party forpresident. What
a spectacle for free American citizens to

There are many indications just now
pointing to the fact that the administration
is attempting to so conduct the Chilian diff
iculty as to strengthen the republican party
in the next campaign. There are many re-
pubhcans who openly allege that the presi-
dent is attempting to strengthen his chances
for the presidential nomination by making
it appear that our relations with that coun-
try bear very warlike tinge. and for that
reason it would be unwise at this time to
make change in the presidential office.
These schemes are very thin and easily seen
through by the public.

The people who are fearing that there
will be no attempt to reform the McKin-

that the ways and means committee Is moi
