The editor OF the Oregonian, sitting in
his many-stoIied palatial building, writes
OF the evidence Of prosperity as evidenced
by the fact that an unusual amount OF
Christmas presents have passed through
the mails for foreign points; but Brad

It's mighty mean man that won't
stand up for his own home, but the
Washingtonian editor seems to be that
kind OF man. In urging protection for
the plutocrats upon Indifferent Republic
cans, it says: 1.-The great objection is
that the West will be lost at the coming
election. Even ii it is. the West is not
necessary to carry on the government.
1t is Popullst, anyway, to Il great extent,
and deserves but little consideration -
Such disloyalty in Populst would be
past forgiveness by the aforesaid editor.

holding a big pow WOW and are calling
for big duty on lumber SO they can raise
the price to consumers. "Taxing the for

to buy lumber with would help them ont
good deal quicker than duty however
high. -Willapa Pilot.

propose therefore. 10 state these ele-
mcnmry facts this morning.
When we adopted the Constitution Of
the United states-a little moro than a
hundred years ago-ono OF the FIRST sub
jects to engage the attention Of the
Government was the arrangement Of u
FINANCIAL system for the new nation. Mr..
Jefferson and Cen. Alexander Hamilton,
two members Of President Washingtcns
Cabinet. took the subject IN especial
charge. and they resolved that We should
have the bimetalhc system Of gold and
silver. Though leaders In hostile polit-
i,a parties. they co-opcrated with per-
feet sincerity 20 secure the new nation
the lest monetary system that could be
devised. After making every possible
Investigation they came to the eonclu-
sion that the market and commercial
ratio OF silver and gold was as Is TO l..
that is. that 10 ounces CT silver was the
exact equivalent in the markets OF the
world for ons ounce OF gold They &c
cordingly recommended. and Congress
adopted that as our coinage ratio by an
act passed in 1872.

gan At that ratio. but either the ratio
had been incorrectly determined. or one
