THE MORNING OBEGON1AN, FRIDAY. APRIL 24, 1903. IS. r A GREAT HOP FARM Planting on a Large Scale in Washington County. RAY BUYS WITCH HAZEL RANCH Is Setting- Out One Hnndred Acre in Hops Will Be One of the Larsest GroTVers In the State Prodnc Quotations. Th licmM In acreage planted In hop In Oregon this rear U estimated at 2J00 acre, with prospect for boct th ame increese next rear. A-non-- the largest hopjrard In Oregon are 75 acrec on tha Hawthorn farm, operated by Mr. Cat, and 100 acrea on the Witch Haxal farm, which A- J. Bar. of Port land, bought tide Spring and baa Jut an lahed planting. Both of the rards are In "Washington County. Speaking of his yard and future prospects, Mr. Rar eara that he dope not anticipate a Terr treat Increase In Oregon's annual output of hope for several rears, but does, of course, expect to see a period of unprofitable rears In the near future. Just as -we haTe had In th past. Hopgrower must prepare for these bad rears during the good ones. Witch Hazel farm presents a fine appearance aa flawed from a train on the Southern Padflo. Bor dering the trade for nearlr a mile are well worked fields set with pegs at each hill. Mr. Bar had the farm tile-drained 4 feet deep with 4 and 6-lnch tiling before planting. Be also straightened all cross-roads, ao aa to be at right angles with the fields. In order to obviate, the" point tows which occur In Ir regular fields. The hops an set eight feet apart each war. which permits better and easier team work than the seren-foot erstem generally adopt ed. The rard la to be wired br to cross wire qiUB, L e-. a No. 10 wire on each row north and south, eight feet high, and No. 6 wire on each row east and west, put ten feet high, to which are hung the row wires br means of hooks. This erstem does awar with throe-fourths of the posts used In the old ers tem of wiring, and makes the cultivation around the hills easier. It is necessary, how ever, to hare the wiring well done. For coring and baling the crop there will be six drrkllns, 28 feet square each, with a storage-room 36xS0 feet. H. I. Fox. a leading hop merchant of New Tork. Is associated with Mr. Bar in this and several oth.T rards In the state. TVOOLBDYEnS' TALK. Commleslon Men Are After Valley" Fleeces. Just at present there Is a deep Interest all ever the Willamette Valler over the results of the recent mohair pool through which tbe growers Interested netted a profit. This was the outgrowth of a similar pool effected last rear br tbe wool growers, aa also br the wheat and oat pools of the past. In these Instances the farmers tbowed good business sense, and mad some good money, but now comes the other extreme on the proposition, says tbe Salem Journal of Tuesday last. Shrewd, and possibly unscrupulous, outside buyers are now trying to make out to the farmers that they anouia snun local buyers entirely, and are offering to "bundle" their crops for them on consignment. Of course these operators try to mane it clear mat they can save the crow. era all middle men's profits, etc. and try to work upon their vanity to the extent of di verting their crops to their own profit. This la probably legitimate game for them, but the average grower will fare belter br sticking to the local buyer whom be knowa to letting his crop out of his possession on an uncertainty. One smooth buyer, or rather operator, for ne can hardly be railed a legitimate buyer. offers to advance farmers 12 cents for their wool, and take it to Portland on storage, and agrees to' sell it wc not less, than 13- cents. all for a commlseipn of 1!4 cents per pound. This may be all right, but there are several phases of tbe matter that ought to be looked Into before consigning the wool. In the first place, this proposition VIII bold the farmer for the freight, and next, the commission of l!i cents Is entirely teo high, even If the other phases of the transaction are all right. Farmers can probably get IS cent per pound for their wool in Salem at tbe present time. And pay neither freight to Portland nor li cents commission for effecting a sale, aa buy ers are anxious to get all the wool they can. Inlulry at the office of William Brown A Co. reveals the fact that good wool la being bought br tbem at 15 to 18 cents per pound, and the Salem Woolen Mills also state that they are prepared to pay from IS to 17 cents per pound. With these fact before them Ore gon farmers would hardly be Justified in let ting their wool go out of their possession to commission men, especially where little Is known a to tbe responsibility of the parties.

Member of the New Tork Stock Exchange were anxious to In augurate the trading la their new building wlthan upward movement of prlce for the same reason that an experienced nurse wishes to carry a new-born baby up atalr before it ahall take a downward trip. Professional tralers in a lock are preverblallr rich In thta kind of wisdom and they began preparation for this morning' demonstration during Tues day's session In the temporary Quarter. It -I waa even suggested that some of yeaterdar operations on the Consolidated Exchange during the re tin tie Incident to the dedication of tbe new Stock Exchange building waa for the account of tbe members of th "tig exchange." so-called, with the purpose of 'furthering the proper a tart in the new Quarter thi morning. Apparently a very brief upward movement waa xsOdent to eatlifr the eolletloua that the "hoodoo. which ha popularly "been sup posed to hang over the market, has been shaken off. At all events, the rise In price proved too tempting for those long of stocka. to resist, and they began to relieve themse'vs of their holding and to realize profits. The most nota ble effect of this turn of affairs was the pro found dullnea which It produced In" the market, but a settling tendency of price alao resulted which gradually wiped- out the con siderable gain tttabUahed during the first hour and forced, price, to a level generally be low Tnesdar night' dotfng. Tbe Immediate cauae oz tni decline was not cieany percepti ble, but It seemed 'due m large part to a di truat of the future of the money market and tbe background offered br the possibility of further extensive anli-tmst campaign. Immediate Influences were favorable to ad vances. Money gained In ease and itx month' loan are negotiated below S per cent with ease. New York bank are in the ' market for commercial , paper for the. first time In several months and they are making the min imum rate of'Sper cent. Some, large loan era reported for a. cine month period at 9 per cent, while up to the present time lenders have avoided extending their accommodation into the Autumn, period of Increased demand for money. It cannot be said, however, that confidence I universal In the quiet passing of tbe Autumn period. Tbe April 9 returns of National bank to the Controller so far aa reported show a larger percentage of reserve to deposits than for either February. 6. the date of the preceding calL or tor April 30, which Is the nearest corresponding date last. year to the present call. This showing Increase tbe disposition to be cautious In money mat ters until the Autumn situation dear up. Of todara special movements, that In Readlna- was baaed on tbe ending bt the. lockout- Bock Island ahowed evidence of absorption, attrib uted to Insider. A aharp advance In North. era Securitle on the curb resulted from' ye- terdaya declaration of the quarterly dividend at an unchanged rate. Buying' on a large scale of tbe National Railroad of Mexico stock was explained aa being due to (he considerable rise In the price t silver and the consequent fall In Mexican exchange. Consolidated Gas Jumped on the defeat of the municipal light ing measure In the State Assembly. The arm pathetic effect of these" advances waa lost when the stocks began to react- The mar ket closed dull and heavy. There wa a quiet demand for the newer 1. ue of bonds, espedallr the 4 per cent selling In the 80s and 00s. Some of the higher grade bond were slightly lower. Total sale, par value. 32.e75.Ouo.

"Uncle Joe Cannon. prospective Speaker of the House of Rep resentatives, wno recently made a cruise In the West Indies with Secretary Moody, Postmaster-General Payne and., several others, comes back to the states "with a little more respect for. the Teller amend ment than when he went away. Mr. Cannon visited several Cuban towns. In cluding; Havana, where be met President Fauna. He regards the head of the new republic as a level-headed man, and says that, under the new government, the Cu bans Tare apparently dolr.e welL He explains that the Latin races cannot be judged by the same standards that we have In the United-States, but the Cubans appear to be making a. success of their government, and If they succeed In going It alone, says Mr. Cannon, their example win be excellent for that Quarter of the world. Considering the hardships through which the Islanders went during thb In surrection; Mr. Cannon says the people are fairly prosperous. It doesn t take great deal for a mail to Uva down there. and nearly everybody was contented. "We are going to have a splendid coal ing station at Ouantanamo," says Mr. Cannon.

In. the Eastern and Southern portion of Oregon, aa trell as In Portland and the .Willamette Valley, much Interest Is being taken In the referendum petitions being circulate! amongst the people for the purpose Of repealing the laws passed at the last Legislature Imposing a special tax upon corporations, based on their cap ital stock, regardless of Its value: and. In addition to the property tax already pro vided for under present laws; the law pro viding for a portage railway at The Dalles, and the. law known as House bill ?io. irrv entitled. "An' act to amend sec tion. 9XS of Bellinger and Cotjon's An- iiuusiiru uvura nuoi statutes ul vreguu. which repeals the section of the present law providing that the tools, household goods and personal effects of the laboring man. shall be exempt from execution up to the value of 3309. or. In other words, not a dollar's worth of property In the State of Oregon -Is to be exempt from taxation and execution. 1 have just come from Eastern Oregon. and the people there are very much ex ercised over these bills passed at the last Legislature, and they are very freely signing the petitions to the Governor for their repeal at Iha polls at the next gen eral election. Mining men and miners. farmers and common' laborers are all In terested and well posted on these sub jects. I have letters from the Willamette VaUey and Southern Oregon showing a similar condition of affairs t fit re. The neople In Portland generally do not seem to understand the import of these laws, and their effect If continued on the statute books, how they got there In the first place, or how to get them off. The sheepmen of Baker County and the min ing men know something about It. It was this way, and a few words will ex plain the remedy: some extra taxes were needed in uregon this year to stand some extra expense The farmers In the middle Columbia, coun ties have- been for a number of years howling for an open river or a portage railroad. These sheep rangers made a strong argument for the retention of the coyote and wolf scalp bounty laws. The representatives In the Legislature got their, heads together and put up the Job to pass a portage railroad bill and repeal the bounty act, appeasing the, extreme Eastern Oregon stockmen with the argu ment that the whole Inland empire would be better served by the railroad bill. This combination was used to pass other bills by trading with Southern Oregon and the Willamette Valley delegates, the whole being part of a' pure political game In the election of United States senator ronton. All of this, of course, was kept out of view of the public- The result was the ralslne of nearly 31.00u.000 extra taxes and the cinching of the milling, lumber, live stock; manufacturing and mercantile companies of the state, the assessing of forelcm corporations and the withdrawal of all" "protection against execution and taxation for the laboring men. uur peo ple have begun to realize that the last Legislature was the worst one ever as sembled In this state. I have the proof of the statement made above. We have also the assurance of foreign capital and the market quotations to show that min ing properties, especially in uregon. are not now Jooked upon with much favor because of these laws. As the working men realize the situation they are rally ing to the remedy, which, as one union man expressed It to me today, is the referendum amendment to the constitu tion of the state, the nutting In force of which was the only good thing the last Legislature did. Since the United States Government has already started work on The Dalles-Celllo canal, and It has been conclusively shown that the 31S.000 ap propriated for the portage road will not build one-third of It. the working men of the state can see no sense In Imposing this useless tax upon them and the mining and other legitimate companies opening up the resources of the state, so they have determined to, refer all three of the bills to the voice Ot tne people at- sue hcai. general election. The mining, mercantile and manufactur ing Interests and laboring men of East em Oregon want their friends in Multno mah County. Willamette Valley and Southern Oregon, aa well as Western and Middle Oregon, to thoroughly understand why theso laws are a direct blow at every interest aiming to develop the state's re sources, and aqualnt the working men whose day's' wages would bo absolutely Inadequate were the Sheriff authorized, to step In and seize his tools, beds and cloth ing for taxes or forsome Judgment ex ecution. They say let every man look Into these Questions and sign the petitions as they are now being rapidly signed In our country and Southern Oregon. IV. j. uunuiLb. Plctnre of Drlvlnrc Golden Spike.
