pass congress at this session, with

sity staring Democracy in the face of
naking-up the deficit in receipts by

The Inland Empire, which is directly
interested in an open river to the sea,
should not place Its hopes in this re-
gard upon tho government at Wash

aided by the state in their efsrts to
make this river an open highway of

son is entitled to this consideration
from the legislature, as tho public
funds have been heretofore lavishly
given to public institutions in the

railroad monopoly has charged very
high rates for transporting grain over

every farmer and shipper. This i'm
provement would b. lasting benefit

The press should be unit in this

quivocally pledged to portage road

called Wilson bill. 1t may be remem-
bered that the effect Of the Mckinley
tariff was to depress the price of sugar
trust stocks, and. indeed, until the
Democratic party began to tinker with
the tariff the sugar trust was believed
to be dying from inanitien, or. as the
boys say, "from want of pap" Now
it is renewing it's mighty and oppres-
sive youth from Democratic stimu-
lants.
The production of sugar in the
United States was s70,579, ,so7 pounds
for the year 1892. A duty of one and
four -tenths cents per pound will give
Is, 1877 ,e99 as additional cost to the
product, for it is an axiom of economy
that where the product Of domestic
article does not nearly equal the de-.
mand, and where the duty levied on
imports does not stimulate production
of the home made article, the tariff
duty operates as q tax both on the
homemade article and the imported
article of like nature.
But the sugar produced in the
United States is but Q small part of
that which is consumed. The con-
sumption Of domestic and imported
sugar amounted to 3,627, l26, 900
pounds for the year 1892. So that
the imposition of even one cent duty
on sugar involves tax of $50, ,272. .260
a year upon the people of the United
States. The duty proposed BY the
senate ranges between l cent and l
40 cents
Thus more than $50, ,27l, ,260 of |
sexes are to be laid ON the people for |
he benefit of the sugar trust mainly, |
md sscondarily for the benefit of |
Louisiana sugar-growers.

In the death of Louis Kossuth the
world loses one Of its most unsel6sh
patriots, and man who is well known
On both sides of the Atlantic The
best years of his life he gave to Hun
garian liberty, and suffered exile in
consequence. In the evening of life
he witnessed an acknowledgement of
the independence of his country, and
the Inauguration of the Austre Hun
gary empire. This did not full
fill his dream of Magyar liberty, and
he always expressed dissatisfaction
with the arrangement. About forty
years ago he paid visit to the United
States, and addressed several large
audiences in this country. His COM
mandIng presence and silvery-toned
voice is still recollected by many Of
our citizens, and no one ever listened
to Kossuth without feeling some de-
gree of admiration for him and
heartfelt sympathy with the sufferings
of his native land. He was q man Of
great literary accomplishments, and as
an orator was second to but few of his
time: Living to the good cid age of
90 years, his life had been "troubled
stream" but the shades of evening
found him peaceful and contented,
loved by his countrymen and re-
spectsd and honored by the world.

A NOTE OF WARNING.

Wasco county has always had an
unenviabls reputation for factional
fights in the Republican party, anG
although Hermann received nearly
500 majority in 1892, three Repupll-
cans we're defeated for important off,
ces. How and by whom this was done
is generally understood, and there is
no desirt that 1894 will witness sim
liar result. The eyes of the nation
are on Oregon, and in this era of wide.
spread business tagnation every Re
publican owes duty to his party and
to his country. This year there should
be no slaughtered victims by being
stabbed in the back by pretending
friends within the party ranks, and it
may be avoided by fair and impartial
actions at the primaries and at conven-
tions. No clique or faction, for per-
xonal favorites. must attempt to secure
control of these meetings by schemes
that will not bear the light of day, or
else there will be retaliation for the
political assassination of two years
ago. We desire perfect harmony in
the coming campaign for several rea-
sons. The Democracy, now in con-
troll of the administration and of both
houses of congress, is awaiting the
verdict of the sovereign people upon
its acts, and the voice of Oregon
should have no uncertain sound. Our
industrial inter SITS have bsen crippled,
and the products of our prolific focks
and fertile soil are lying almost worth
less in warehouses. This state is in
favor Of the Republican policy of pro-
lection, and when the enemies Of
American manufactures and of Amer.
ican labor are using herculean efforts
to inaugurate British free trade, the
northwest, by the vote of every town
and county, should send across the
continent an emphatic disapproval.
This can be- done In q manner
never before realized in the poll
tical history Of the state BY heal
ing old sores, closing chasms,
inculcating absolute harmony in nom
mating conventions and perfect peace
in the ranks of the Republican party.
This harmony and peace must be re-
ciprocal, and not patterned after that
peace that once reignsd at Warsaw.
There is no threats in these words, but
simply notes of warning ny one who
desires the success of the ticket in the
June election by the largest majority
it ever received.
