Co, trade has not beenaltogethcr prof
liable, The plague and famine in India
rendered uncertain the operations of
English mills, and the long DELAY in
passing the new tariff bill, coupled with
the general depression in trade, caused
the business of American spinners to be
unsatisfactory,

seems to us most promising The yisi-

year, when the supply was exceptionally
short. it is /, BOG, 78S bales smaller than

INDIAN COMMISSIONER BALDWIN
doesn't propose to submit tamely to de-
capitation. According to Washington
dispatches a lengthy protest was re-
ceived at the interior department,
through the channel of the civil SER
vice commission from Major Baldwin,
claiming that his removal was in vio-
lation of the civil service rules and
was for political cause. He asserts
that he committed no act which would
warrant his removal and claims the in
tervention of civil service commission.
Secretary Bliss is out of the city and
until he returns nothing can be done.
The question as to whether or not
Baldwin was under the civil service
was not considered in removing him,
as it was claimed that Hall, being an
old soldier, could be reinstated under
the law whether Baldwin was under
the civil service or not. This may be
made a test case of the presidents re-
cent order regarding the removals of
federal officers.

THE Minneapolis Times and the St.
Paul Globe have been crediting the
signs of returning prosperity to the
good luck of the Republican party.
The Minneapolis Journal takes the
Globe to task thus: 1.-THE Globe
reviews the history of the Republican
party after the usual Democratic no.
ton, to prove that during it's whole
career it has been fool for luck and
only enjoyed a brilliant career,
through the generation past by hap
pening upon good crops when they
were needed. OF course, in this re-
view, the Globe doesn't say anything
about the fine business management
and defense of the public credit of this
fool for luck'' which prevented the
Democrats from overturning the pub
lie credit after the war and which
stuck to sound financial principles and
brought about resumption in 1879 and
saved the national honor in 1896. But
not all the fools areh luck, dear Globe,
and you have our sympathy"

DUN's REVIEW: Compelled in fdel-

grounded gains during the fall of 1894,
the summer of 1895, and last winter,
Due's Revieao is gratified to find sub
stantial basis for the improvement
which has been recorded since early
this year. The pessimists who pro-
nounced reports of gain fictitious and
misrepresenting have grown weary of
their dismals, and begin to see the
dawn of better days. Last month was
the first for four years in which the
volume of business reported by clear
ing houses was larger than in the same
month of 1892, and the telegraphic dis
patches from all parts of the country
given this week show a gratifying i'm
provement. ... -

A little Ohio girl only 9 years old
lately saved her mother from drowning
in the canal south of Cleveland. The
child could swim, the mother could not.
The little girl was probably too young
to get panicky, as she might have done if
she had been older: At any rate, when
the mother was struggling in the water
the child instructed her to keep padding
with her hands under water, the fingers
being held close together to prevent her
self from sinking. Unlike some women,
the mother had sense enough to keep
her head on and obey the directions of
her small daughter, who could swim.
While she continued padding with her
hands the little girl swan to her. Then
the little heroine put one hand under
the mothers chin, and, while swimming
with her feet and free hand, steered the
woman to the canalboat from which
she had fallen. Then both climbed into
the boat. That child deserves q gold
medal, and big one.

CONGRESS when it assemblies in the
winter in the regular session would do
we'll to employ part of it's time in dis
cussing the postal savings bank system
and endeavor to discover, if possible,
if the idea cannot be put into success
full practice here. Speaking of the
present agitation of this subject the
Esght-Hoatr Journal, of Chicago, says:
AT last there are indications that the
people OF the United States are awak-
enlng to the Importance of establish
ment OF postal savings banks. It has
taken long while for them to realize
that it Was the duty of the government
to provide an absolutely safe deposi-
tory for the savings of the common
people, such depository, for instance,
as the people of Great Britain and
many of her colonies have so long en-
joyed! Much speculation is being in
dulged in as to what attitude the bank
ing interests of the country would be
likely to take in regard to this matter
when it is brought before congress.
Perhaps the proper thing to do would
be to ignore the banking interests in
the consideration Of question of this
kind. This would be difficult perhaps
impossible. It should be borne in
mind, however, that this agitation for
the establishment of postal savings
banks is due wholly to the instability
and unsound nature of the private saw
ings banks, where the people in the
past have been in the habit of placing
their money, and where so much Of it
has been irrevocably lost. We have
nothing at hand to show the amount Of
money which has been swallowed IN
by unsafe and dishonesty conducted
savings banks, but the totals must he
something dreadful to contemnlate.
When it is remembered that in MANY
cases the money lost represented the
life savings of a poorly paid mechanic
or laborer. Give Uncle Sam a chance
to show how he can do business Of this
kind

PROTECTION ALREADY.


In spite of the heavy importations in
advance of the new tariff, Oregon wool
is selling freely: evenebefore that tariff
is in effect, at nearly double the price
of year ago. This was unexpected,
but is none the less welcome. No
doubt the explanation is that only
about half the home demand for wool
can be supplied from the surplus of
other countries. The rest must come
from our own flocks. Importers have
stripped foreign markets of their sur
plus, and probably have accumulated
enough wool to enable them to dis
pense with importations under the
Dingley bill for year. But this will
supply only part of their needs. For
the rest they must buy homegrown
wool, as to whose price the new tariff
is already effective, since no more
foreign wool can be brought in with
out paying duty, except some now
afoat There will be little revenue in
the wool tariff for the first year, but
there is protection already. Portland
