RIGHT IN THEORY.

The Labor Exchange has established
branch in The Dalles, and will ere
long open business in the city. So
far as the aims and purposes Of the
exchange are known, the theory on
which it proposes to do business is at
tractive, though what it will be in
practice remains to be demonstrated.
1t is the purpose of the exchange to,
as far as possible, furnish a ready
market for the produce raised by it's
members, and at the same time supply
them with staple groceries, dry goods
and clothing at a slight advance over
business there will be no cash transac-
tions between the exchange and its
members. Certificates will be issued
against all deposits of produce at the
current price of the product on the day
it is deposited, less the commissions.
That is, farmer who deposits 100
bushels of wheat on day when wheat
is selling at 80 cents is given a certif-
cate for $50, less commissions. This
certificate is transferable, and will be
received at the store in payment for
any goods carried therein. The pro-
duce deposited is put upon the market
at once, and the proceeds of the sale
thereof are invested in merchandise
for the store.
Thus it will be seen that the theory
is to do business practically without
money, except the certificates of the
exchange can be termed money. If
the operations of the exchange are
successful, it will be demonstrated be-

New YORK, April S.-A Herald dis
patch from Montevideo says:
The government is alarmed at the
failure OF the troops to suppress the re-
bellion. Officials admit that news
from the front is unfavorable. The
government column under Munez has
been dispersed by Saravia. Lamas is
now said to be marching on Monos.
Saravia, the Brazilian reoel' chief, is
at San Luis, near the Brazilian frontier,
while Lamas is marching toward the
center of the republic The govern
ment troops were defeated at Trecin-
tary Tres. The government has called
for the national guard.
The revenue from customs for the
last six months is 81, ,24O, 900 less than
for the preceding six months. Several
deputies have made a demand on the
chamber that the president shall
change his present policy.
The Herald correspondent in Rio de
Janeiro telegraphs that Conselheiro
will use the head of Colonel Moreciary
Caesar, the Brazilian commander killed
by the fanatics, as an ensign for his
troops when in action. The ghastly
trophy will be carried in the van OF
the religious sinsurrectionists translixed
by pike.
The fanatics continue to gain ground
in Bahia, and are making inroads into
other states. They pillage and burn
all villages which they enter and COM
nit many atrocities.

on which Major Mckinley was elected
to the most exalted Office in the gilt
of any people, said: 1.-THE govern
ment of Spain, haviag lost control OF
Cuba, and being unable to protect the
property and lives of resident Ameri-
can citizens. or to comply with lis
treaty obligations, we believe the gov
ernment of the United States should
actively use it's irfiuence and good
offices to restore peace and give lnde-
penderce to the island"
This plank was as imperative as any
other il. the platform, and is as bind
ing as that which declared for restor-
alton of former tariff laws. viii Pres
ident Mckinley ignore it, now that he
has been personally appealed to by the
representative of the CUBAN patriots?
The lives of American citizens, who
are incarcerated in Spanish dungeons
on the island are in jeopardy. a brave
and patriotic general, who has severed
his allegiance to the Spanish crown
and espoused the cause of people bat
tling for independence, is threatened
with court-martial that means GER
tain death. An oppressed people are
bounded from one extremity of the
island to the other, and in their gallant
fight for freedom are being butchered.
The property of Spaniards, Cubans and
Americans is being sacrificed on every
hand. Will the chief executive of this
nation allow this to continue, or will
he heed the declarations of the plat
form on which he was elected and call
the attention of congress to the Cuban
question and insist upon immediate

THE OREGONIAN AND HANNA.

1t was all right with the Oregoniar
last fall when Mark Hanna was telling
the people of Oregon how to vote.
Then he was one OF the greatest states
men of the country, the very Moses
who was to lead the deluded Oregon
ians ont of the wilderness, but now
Mr.. Hanna is interfering withAa SUBJ
ject that is very sacred to the Oregon
ian, and it says:
''Mr. HANNAH is understood, opposes
the seating of Mr.. Corbett, on the
ground that refusal to set him is the
way to force the governor of Oregon
to call a special session OF the legisla-
ture, and thus get republican sem
ator for full term. 1t may be feared
that Mr.. Hanna, since he appears to
think he has right to be dictator over
Oregon. is as badly mistaken in this
matter as he is as to the condition of
things in Ohio. Oregon is not worry
ing about the seat II the senate, and
that IS not the question which the gov
ernor is likely to consider, in relation
to special session. The only reason
for calling a special session should
one ever be called-would be found in
the business affairs of the state. Mr..
Hanna is likely to find that he cannot
dictate from Washington or from Ohio
a special session of the legislature OF
Oregon. Besides, it is very evident
that Mr.. Hanna's own affairs need his
attention. He is now senator by ap-
polntment, but he never will be a sep
ator by election. His successor in the
senate will certainly be democrat.
The people do not like the traffic agent
and the mere juggler in politics. Mr..
Hanna is one of those politicians and
statesmen who have no principles or
convictions that cannot be accommo-
dated to the desire of Success. This is
the reason why his political career 10
Ohio will be short. He will be SEN
ator until next January only. Ohio
will spew him out"

yond doubt that money is not an abso-
lutte necessity rs a vehicle for efecting
exchange, and that certificates based
upon products of labor may be made to
perform the Office Of gold, silver, and all
other forms of money issued by the
government or through its authority.
If the exchange is conducted honestly
and economically, and receives.suili-
cicnt business that tho commissions
viii pay salaries and other incidental
expenses, there is ro visible reason
why it should not be success, mas
much as it will be the agent through
which the producer will secure ready
market for his surplus: and there is
in its favor the idea that the producer
will at least be able to exchange his
surplus for such commodities rs he is
necessarily required TO purchase at
least at some price. And as it is not
the purpose of the exchange to increase
it's wealth, but simply to conduct a
business at actual cost of buying, sell
ing and conveying to market, the
theory on which it it is formed seems
feasible.

on THE ROAD IO WEALTH.

Surely not once in q lifetime are
such dazzeling possibilities opened be-
fore mortal eyes for advancement
along the highway to wealth as are
presented to the speculator who gets
in ou the ground floor with invest
ments in Dalies City property right
now. Business is dull here at present,
and property is down to bedrock, but
these conditions will not always pre-
vail. The Dalles is so situated, at the
head of navigation on the Columbia
river, that it cauuot be kept down al
ways. 1t is the natural distributing
point for large and fertile region. 1t
is favored with all blessings OF nature,
and is certain TO, at no distant date,
become not only u great commercial
city, but also grand manufacturing
center. The coal mines which are
soon to be discovered almost within
its corporate limits will furnish cheap
fuel. that will turn ponderous machin-
cry, and its cheap land and desirable
sites for manufacturing industries must
attract capital here that will set things
moving.
Indeed The Dalles is on the high
road to wealth and prominence, and
the denZien of today will soon awake to
the fact thai he is in the midst of stir
and hustle that bodies good times and
prosperity to all. The Dalles cannot
be kept in the back ground any more
than the earth could be stopped in its
annual course around the sun. 1t
must and will come to the front, still
this can be fastened by local effort
and energy. If our citizens will simply
take advantage of these natural re-
sources, encourage manufacturing,
commerce and trade, they will reap
the benefits; but if they remain idle
and wait for outsiders to step in and
take the lead, the season of general
prosperity will be some what delayed,
and when it comes the outsiders that
produce it will reap the benefits.

Morgan and Hale Have a Passage at Arms
Eoth Senators Were Excited.
WASHINGTON, April 6.-The resolu-
tion of Senator Morgan, OF Alabama,
declaring that state OF war exists in
Cuba, was taken up by the senate to-
day, and Morgan addressed the senate
in favor OF the resolution.
An exciting debate bstween Morgan
and Hale occurred during Morean's
speech. Hale denied Morgan's state
ment that the Spanish prisons were
stuffed with Americans. Morgan asked
Hale where his information came from,
and then asserted that he Morgan J
knew who the informant was. The
country knew who it was. The sena-
tor from Maine (Hale) could not con-
ceal the fact, asserted Morgan, that he
was in communication with the Spanish
government.
Hale made an indignant denial, stat
ing that none of his information came
from Spanish sources, and it was en-
tirely from Americans.
The Morgan Cuban resolution went
to the senate calendar, thus losing the
privileged place. Morgan gave notice
that he would make motion tomorrow
to take it up with view to securing
fiual action.

Government to Aid Mississippi Valley
Flood Sufferers

Flood Sufferers
WASHINGTON, April 1.-The presi-
dent this morning sent to congress
special message regarding the flood
sufferers in the Mississippi valley. 1t
recited facts learned from governors
and prominent citizens of Arkansas,
Louisiana, Mississippi and Tennessee.
regarding the extent of the submerged
area and the rumber of people who
have lost all property and crops, as
well as their chance to raise anything
during the present season, and SAID
that from $780, 900 to 5000, 900 would be
necessary to relieye their wants. 1t
cited former occasions when the gen.
eral government gave money in aid of
unfortunates and strongly urged con-
gress to promptly make the appropria-
tion in the present case.
In the senate, upon receipt of the
presidents special message, Senator
Jones, of Arkansas, offered joint res
olution appropriating Sl5O,0OO for sup
plies to Mississippi river flood sufferers.
In the house, Catchings of Missis-
sippi, offered resolution appropriating
$500, 900 for the relief of flood sufferers.
The senate passed the Jones resolu-
tion and the house the Catchings reso-
luton. This would have left an awk-
ward situation, but the senate yielded
prece lence to the house, recalled its
resolution and promptly passed the
house resolution, which then went to |

In the 80 years that Dr. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets have been sold, hundreds of thori-
sands of people have taken them, and have
any possible question of their efficacy.
They are the product of experience, tried
by time. They are intended to cure con-
stipatior. They are good for men, wo-
men and children. They are tiny, sugar
coated granules, very easy to take, very
quick In their action. One Pellet +" is 4
gentle laxative, two pellets" a mild
tathartic. A great many people make
the mistake of sandbagging their di-
gestive organs. They take some strong
and violent medicine, which creates
worse troubles than it cures. Strong
purgatives shock the system unnecessar-
ily, and they do not cure constipation.
Constipation is thing that makes peo-
pie 1istless and languid; makes their
breath bad; wakes them up with foul
taste in their mouths; puts black spots
before their eyes; makes them dizzy;
causes headache; makes them bilious

Burglars in Lebanon

LEBANON, Or, April T. Robbers
entered the Southern Pacific Com
pany's depot at this place last night
and attempted to rob the safe by blow
ing it open with dynamite. The rob-
bers gained entrance into the depot
by breaking out glass pane and rails
ing the window. They then drilled ~
hole through the outside casing of the
safe door and inserted the dynamite
and blew the outside casing open,
blowing out some of the cement. They
then attempted in several places to
drill through the inside casing of the
door, but it was evidently too hard for
their drills. The safe door is ruined,
out otherwise the safe is not damaged.

THE LIGHT OF PUBLICITY

1t is not strange that this cry about
the "new journalism" should originate
with the papers that have supported
trusts, combines and rotten political
machines and be directed against
papers that haYe fought trusts, COM
pines and rotten political machines.
When it is understood that antitrust
papers are debarred from reading
rooms of clubs composed of men like
Seely. Harper, Morgan, Belmont
men who hire naked women to dance
on dining tables; men who rob the
government through secret bond deals;
men who rob other men of wives: men
who keep two establishments, one
containing a wife and children, the
other a woman of the ~town-then
probably the people can see the aDimus
of the fight. Publicity is the greatest
menace to the schemes of these men
aud if they cannot buy or subsidize the
papers that are honest, no method is
too low for them to use in accomplish
ing their purposes. The fight against
the "new journalism" is specimen of
their depravity. While newspapers
can be bettered, the reform cannot be
started with them. Not to publish
immoral actions is TO clothe immoral
ity with license, and so long as people
of the Seely-Harper-M organ n-Belmont
stripe persist in their immoral
practices we say let in the light of
publicity. 1t is the only thing stand
ing between morality and immortality,
between freedom and serfdom, between
man and the devii.-Telephone-Regis-
