ocratic principles.
Mr.. Bailey expressed the same opin-
ion regarding the free entry of all raw
materials.
"Since when has the doctrine Of
free raw material ceased to be q
Democratic doctrine?" asked Mr.. AID
rich, Rhode Island.
Since men like I have come into
power in the Democratic party" re-
piled Mr.. Bailey.
Mr.. Aldrich then insisted that
Grover Cleveland and every other
man conspicuous in the Democratic
party except the senator from Texas
had advocated the policy of free raw
materials. He also said these were
the men who made the Democratic
party great in their time, whiie Mr..
Bailey replied that they had "unmade
It."
Mr.. Bailey referred to an income
tax law passed by the Republican par
ty at the time of the civil war and
later repealed. He wanted to know
why Republicans opposed such tax
now, when expenses Of the govern
ment were even greater.
"The Republican party had respon-
sibilities imposed upon it in those
times greater than were imposed on
any other party and they vera COM
PEELED to exact many onerous taxes
replied Mr.. Aldrich.
Mr.. Bailey asked unanimous con-
sent for vote on the income tax
amendments prior to the time OF ad-
journment on Thursday next. When
Mr.. Aldrich objected, Mr.. Bailey gave
notice that he would object whenever
Mr.. Aldrich sought unanimous con-
sent for q vote on the tariff bill.
Mr.. McCumber substituted another
amendment for that which he had Of
fered previously to put lumber on the
free list. His substitute left rough
lumber dutiable at so cents per tnou-
sand feet and placed finished lumber
on the FREQ list.
Mr.. Johnston (Ala.), offered anoth.
er substitute putting on the free list
all lumber, shingles and other arti-
cles of lumber entering into the con.
struction Of houses. Mr.. Johnston's
substitute was defeated by q vote Of
Ga to 12. Mr.. McCumber's amendment
was also lost, the vote being Sc 10 Is.

ALAN BRACKINREED
CALLS PORTLAND PUNK"
AND OREGON CURSED
He WILL NO DOUBT GET OVER IT IN Time
WHEN HE FORGETS MOTHERS COOKIES
AND GETS ACQUAINTED WITH SOME
ONE OF OREGON'S PRETTY GIRLS

A few days ago the article printed
below was handed n Journal reporter
as a specimen of what Eastern pa
pers are printing about oregon, and
as showing how dull and gloomy ev-
crything looks, and what a dreary
old world II is, when a young fell
low gets away from home and moth
er and his best girl, and gets a good
old fashioned case of homesickness.
OF course, he will get over II, most
OF us have had dose out OF that bot
tie, and knows how Il feels.
The Journal man was in that boat
once himself In the far-away days.
He came West, and SHE didn't. The
skies were gray, the climate was
bad, the world was awry and turnlp
green's and green peas didn't taste
good, AMI even salt wasn't near so
salty as Il was back In Illinois. IL
was awful, but he got over it, and
then he learned to appreciate and
love the West. It's purpling noun
tain1, It's snowy peaks, the grand
sweep OF the azure tide of the Co
lumbia. the glen and glade and YER
dant hills, the towering firs. the
witching patterns traced By the clear
brooks bordered with alder and will
low, and over all an amethystine
sky so fathomless that one could al
most think their infinite depths at
last reached TO and become the pnr-
pie robes around the throne OF God.
The poor homeslck one will In
time learn this, and then he will be
content He wouldn't go back and
swap conditions and take red
wagon and n yellow dog TO boot.
This Is what the homeslck one wrote,
and what the editor OF the little
country home paper, who has, per-
haps, never been farther from home
than the county seat, printed under
the heading stick TO Northern
Minnesota"
Now that the fruit growing busi-
ness In the West is being doomed so
Thoroughly. and so many people have
inclinations to try their hand at Il,
it m 'ght be interesting TO some TO
