The state rights democrat. [volume] (Albany, Linn County, Oregon) 1865-1900, 1892-02-05

The movement TO secure an amendment
to the constitution cf the United States
providing for the election of United States
senator's by the people direct. is gaining
strength all over the country. The matter
came up before the committee in the lower
house of congress the other day which had
been appointed to investigate the matter
and by aformal vote approved the plan.
The amendment should pass. 1t should al
30 provide for electing presidents and vice.
presidents by the people. The people can
be trusted. In republic it is safest to
keep asmuch power as possible inthe hands
Of the people.

The democrats Of the ways and mems
committee are beginning at the right end
Of tariff reform. Free wool would mean
better and cheaper clothing. Free lumber
would mean cheaper houses. Free coal
would mean cheaper fuel, just as free su-
gar means cheaper sweetening. The
party can ask no better issue, should the
senate or the president jefeat these meas
ures, than to go to the people committed
10 untaxed clothing, shelter, food and fuel.

Unconsciously and unintentlonally. but
nevertheless certainly, did the republican
party make the strongest argument In fa-
vor Of free trade that has been made for
years This consisted in putting sugar on
the free list. When republican leaders and
republican papers aim to refer to the very
beauty of beauties of The MeKlnley law,
they uniformly select the putting OF sugar
on the free list as the redeeming feature Of
hat measure. And while the great bene-
ft accruing to the people from the sugar
clause Is largely neutralized by the fact
that the governnent Is bound to pay a
bounty Of two cents pound on all the
sugar produced In this country, neverthe
less they are now cognizant OF the fact
that "iree trade" as held up by the pro-
tectionists Is merely a bugaboo

That we demand equal rights 10 all and
special privileges to none" is cardinal
principle Of democratic faith. For this
reason we could never consent that congress
should pass law by which the general gov
emment should loan money 10 one class Of
persons at low rate Of interest while all
other classes would be compelled TO go into
the general market and hire money at a
high rate Of interest. This scheme would
be class legislation, the most dangerous
any to the perpetuity Of the goyernmen
itself. Let the voice Of every one be down
on class legislation.

When scientists went 10 look for salmon
on the Pacific coast they found none, but
found something far finer. In Europe
salmon and trout differ only In the upper
rows Of teeth, the salmon shedding his as
he grows older, while the front always re-
tain them. On the Pacific coast, however,
there Is always one certain and easily
noticed mark Of difference between the
two. In the trout The last lower fin has
generally not over nine rays, sometimes
ten, but in the salmon the rays range from

Is built upon a more generous plan,

This state may act an important part in
the next presidential election. Since the
organization Of the republican party Il has
always been regaide as safely republican
until Il was struck by the political cyclone
In 1890 when the democrats elected all the
state officers and both branches of the leg
lslasure. The legislature changed The
manner of electing presidential electors,by
providing that one should be elected In
each congressional district. But rs each
state Is entitled to two electors for It's two
senators, the legislature provided for these
by dividing the state into two districts,
east and west. This would fill up the
fourteen delegates to which the state Il
entitled. How will this affect the election
of presidential electors In that statel Ills
clearly 10 be seen that while state may
be republican. some Of Its congressional
districts may be democratic. The First
Second. Eight aud Tenth Districts have
uniformity returned demogalic majorides
At all FIVE elections held since 1854 The
sixth and seventh distiicts have gone dem
ocIatic at four out OF the last five elections,
The Eastern dIstrict has been iniallibly
democratic for years. These seven dis
triets may be relied upon to elect demo-
cratic electors. The Third, Fourth,
Eleventh, Twelfth, and Western district are
reliably republican. From this 1t appears
that democrats are safe In seven district .
and the republicans safe In FIVE. The Filth
and Ninth are doubtful. They have gone
democratic at four Out OF the Ave elections
since 1854. In the Filth the chances favor
the democrats. The Ninth will most
likely 60 republican. From this 1t will
appear that democrats are likely to elect
eight and republicans six of the elections
