IS IT TO BE A FAKE AND
A fraud:
Everything is setting along swim-j
uiiugly iu Congress over the tariff
question. There is a very general be
lief that all that the people will Ret i
real relief they may conveniently put
into their eyes. There is one excep
tion to this rule and that is where
the material under consideration may i
bo produced iu the West. Then, if
New Hug land needs it for raw mater- 1
ial aud wants It cheaper, the West
will get the worst of 't. But even i
then the consumer will get none the ,
l-? st of it because, while the cost of ?
I roductlou may be decreased, the cur
unt price of the product will be mair
Uined so that the profit of the man-|
ufacturers may be mightily increased.
Will the sugar trust, the tobacco I
trust, which, under government brand
sills six ounces of tobacco for eight;
and the steel trust and the rest of
them be troddeu upon in any way'.'
We are ready to be shown, but de-|
iline in the meantime to accept any- ,
thing but indubitable evidence.
Genuine relief is expected this time i
If none comes there will be a general
overhauling of the tariff which will
mean a revenue basis. Likewise,
those who are now profiting so much
by the tariff that they are robbing th
test of the country may expect retal
iation when the opportunity offers.;
Things are beginning to travel pretty,
swiftly in this country. Revolutions
will be brought about much quicker!
taan ever before in our history. The]
tariff in recent years has been the
n.ost consummate system of grinding
ir.Justice ever devised by human in
genuity. It lias openly favored see-!
lions, individuals and combinations,
and the rest of the country has been
laid under Heavy tribute. Nothing
has been considered in all the passing
years but the interests of these sec-j
tions and people. But this condition j
cannot always be maintained. There
riust come a time when those who
pay the tribute so selfishly aud even
dishonestly exacted will rebel. That
time is very close at hand. If the'
purpose of the preseut tariff inanipula
lor is to maintain practically the pres
cat status quo they are bringing Just
ti:at much nearer the day when the
tariff, as a protective measure, will b ,
swept aside.
If the tariff is to be continued upon |
the present lines, the interests of all
J arts of the country must be consid
ered on an equitable basis. ? Portland

It will be a wide departure from
the Rooseveltian standard of ethics if
l'residea* Tuft gives any federal ap
pointment to a man like the notor
iously corrupt Ex-Senator Fulton of
Oregon.
The United States needs a perma
nent tariff commission. I'ntil we have
such a body our tariff will always be
unsatisfactory.

countenance: but by sorrow of the
