INCREASE IN REVENUES.

With an increase of over 81 ,OOO, ,00(
in the October expense for pensions
the total expenditures of the govern.
ment for the month are $4,000, 900 in
excess of the receipts.
The expenditure for November is
expected to be lower, and the month
may show a surplus. The probability
that it will do so is made greater by
the increase in revenues on imports al
the port of New York from 1887 ,OOl
under the Mckinley bill in October,
1893, to S, ,299, 600 under the Wilson
bill in October, 1895. There is also @
prospect of continuous increase in
revenue from the whisky tax now that
the law has at last begun to overcome
the efforts made by dealers to discount
it's operations.
In spite of this, however, congress
when it convenes may find it necessary
to meet the enormous drain of PEN
sions by slight increase in internal
revenue taxes. The statistics pub
lished recently by the Brewers Jour-
nal show that the total consumption of
beer for the year ending June 80 last
reached 80, ,469, 900 barrels, an increase
of 19l 900 barrels over last year. An
increase of 81 a barrel in the tax on
this production would not be felt by
the consumer, and the increased reve-
nue. produced by it would solve the
problem of meeting the expense of
pensions without embarrassing the
treasury or threatening the gold re-
s serve.-N. Y. World.

sell herself and her millions simply for

have, through force of custom, come
to the conclusion that all that is nec-

to the Crusades, is Undertaking to ne

a chance for some high aspiring Amer

but it is to be hoped that the chance
will be spurned. It is time to call a
halt in this traffic. American women
should hold themselves in too high
esteem to be bartered away for empty
titles of fallen princes. If America is
good enough to be bred and born in, it
is good enough to live in, and no title
of duchess or princess is more honora-

zen of the United States.

a TRUE AMERICAN.

Hon. Thomas F. Bayard,. United
States ambassador to England, deliv.
cred the inaugural address to the Phil
osophical Society at Edinburgh, on the
evening of the 9TH. The address was
replete with patriotic expressions and
denunciations of socialism and protec
ton, showing the relation that exists
between these two evils. In this con-
nection, Mr.. Bayard said:
'In my country have witnessed the
Unsuitable growth of that form of state
socialism styled protection, which /
believe has done more to foster class
Legislation and create inequality of
fortue, corrupt public life, banishment
of independent means and character
from public councils, blunt public con-
science and place politics upon the low
level OF mercenarY scramble, than any
other single cause. Step by step, and
largely owing to the confusion of civic
strife, 1T has succeeded in obtaining
control Of the sovereign power of tax
alton, creating the revenue into an en-
gine for selfish and private profit. It's
allied benefciaries and combines are
called trusts, and gradually the COM
mercial marine of the United States
has disappeared, the few vessels built
being an exception and proving the
rule as they were only built by making
Q breach in the general tariff and navi-
CATION laws. 1t is incorrect to speak
OF protection as national policy.
That could never be, as it will never
be anything but the fostering of spe-
cial interests at the expense of the
rest. It is contrary to hopes OF ad-
vancement, or even the retrenchment
OF what has been gained by civilizs-

There was also an increase of S., 2OI,-
565 in the circulation of standard sill
yer dollars. but this was Offset by the
cancellation of Sherman notes and
represented only demand for small
money.
A notable feature of the curren "
changes during October was the very
great reduction in the volume of large
notes and the corresponding increase
in the circulation of smaller notes,
particularly fves and tens. This means
pay-rolls and crop movement-the dis
tribution of money among the people
A few figures will suggest its extent.
The volume of $1,000 notes outstand'
ing decreased during the month nc
less than S11, ,235 1000, while the s1O(

ton of fves and tens increased during
the same time by ss,54O,75 the re-
mainder of the inc ease being in ones

A Crime More Horrible Than the Church

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 13.-Captain
Peter Lane, capitalist; LeonR. Meyer,
capitalist, and Philip Ratz were ar
raigned before Police Judge Campbell
today to answer to series of crimes
which surpass anything in the annals
of the local courts. Lane is nearly 80
years old, almost blind and very infrm.
Meyer is 81 years old, and apparently
possessed of all his faculties. Ratz is
a much younger man. The men are
charged with outraging girls. AL
ready the police have taken in charge
eight little girls ranging in age from 8
to 13 years, and they state that % more
girls of the same age will be called to
testify against the men.
The trio made their headquarters at
the house of Captain Lane, who is said
to be worth 100000 In that house
girls ranging in age from eight to thir-
teen years were brought by an older
girl, who received twenty-five cents
for each recruit she brought to the den
of vice.
Eight little girls appeared in court
today and identified the men. The
surgeon of the receiving hospital ex-
amined a number of the infants, and
was Mortified at the result of the ex-
animation. He said there was no
doubt that the children had been out
ragged.

SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 1e, 1896
THERE SHOULD BE UNITY.

THE question of opening the Column
bia river above The Dalles is at this
time of more importance to the people
of Eastern Oregon than any other.
Upon it depends the future prosperity
and welfare Of the entire Inland En-
pire. The great work at the Cascades
is nearing completion, and III order
that the immense wheat fields and
stock ranges of that section of the state
lying east of the Cascade mountains
shall be enabled to reap full benefit
from this improvement, the other OBJ
structions to free navigation of the
river must be removed. All of Eastern
Oregon is entitled to the low traffic
rates which river transportation as
sure. Upon this point there is a gen.
eral unison of opinion but as to the
means to be adopted opinions widely
differ. Some advocate the building of
boat-railway, as recommended by the
board of government engineers, while
others deem that scheme impractical
BILE, and insist on urging our repre-
sentatives in congress to have the
matter reconsidered, and plan for a
canal and locks substituted, and there
are still others who believe that
portage road would be sufficient to
handle the traffic of the upper country,
and that it would meet all demands.
To US a portage road, except as
temporary means, does not appear to
be the thing. However, judging what
time may be required to construct
more permanent improvements-eit either
the boat-railway or canal and locks
by the time that has been consumed in
the construction of the canal and locks
at the Cascades, it would probably be
money well spent to build portage
road; and Eastern Oregon would be
justified in asking an appropriation
from the state for this purpose. Or
possibly a more speedy plan would be
the building of portage road as a
private enterprise by those who are
most directly interested.
But the question of greatest moment
is the opening of the river by some
substantial and permanent means that
will last through ages. And which
shall it be, boat-railway or canal and
locks? Upon this. point the entire
country should be unit. If the boat
railway is impracticable, too expensive
to operate, and dangerous to the boats
that it is proposed it shall convey
around the Instructions, let the facts
be shown, and Oregon's senators and
representatives requested to oppose
the measure and demand that canal
and locks be substituted. With one
section demanding one thing and an
other something else, we can rest as
sured that the distractions to the nav
igation of the Columbia will remain
intact for the next generation. Cat
serwauling over the plan for removing
them will never accomplish anything,
but unity Of action will. Let all of |
eastern Oregon unite on some plan,
then present it to congress, and we
may hope for an appropriation and
action that will ultimately result in an
open river from Lewiston to the sea,

Ex-Attorney General Miller was borr

house where he first learned to read
and play hockey" says the Indian
apolis Sentinel, there was a fellow
pupil who, although about the same
age as Mr.. Miller, was noted through
out the village for his pure cussedness.
That boy, according to Mr.. Miller's
statement, would sit up of a-nlght to con-
coct some scheme to make the people OF
the town miserable. He wonld chase
the cows, stone the dogs and pigs, put
ropes across the path at night, set pins
on the seats at church and scare the
wits out of all the old maids for a mile
around. Whenever any devilment was
done 1t was laid at the door of tins one
boy, and usually correctly. At school
he was terror to all. Stubborn and
defiant, there was NO restraining him,
and the schoolmaster was in despair.

last effort to reform the boy by argu-
ment, and he called him up to the
desk
Now, Tom" he began, you are a
bright fellow, but you are spelling
your future. Just think what yon can
make of yourself if you only behave
yourself. Now, have you ever thought
of what7you will do when you grow
