The prospect of early radical reductions in the McKinley tariff law has paralyzed the wool busi ness, closed the maioritv 01 toe woolen mills, thrown thousands ol wnrkinjrmen and women out of employment, and has checked the sales of wool, the prices for which are now onlv nominal. The tone of the market is in buyer's favor. There are many holders of wool wishing to sell, but owing to the large number of idle mills, there is almost no market for it. This is in strong contrast with the con ditions of the woolen manufact uring business previous to March, 1893. Then, the demand for wool was so great as to clear from the market the clip of the previous year, making the scarcity of this staple apparent to everyone. Then manufacturers were so actively securing wool with which to fill their large orders lor woolen goods that prices advanced from one to two cents per pound above those current during the previous month The woolen mills in the United States had never before had such a busv vear. The demand ior wool was so great that it absorbed the entire 333,000,000 pounds of the American clip of 1892, in ad dition to 168.000,000 pounds of imported wool a quantity larger by 32 per cent than the imports of any previous year under any previous tariff law, the quantity imported being equal to 51 per cent, of our own clip. This fact proves that American manufac turers are in no way "Hampered by lack of loreign wool for mix ing." The enormous quantity of wool imported, even with the Jvlc Kinley duties added, owing to the heavy fall in foreign prices, was relatively cheaper than the Amer ican clip, low as the latter was. But in less than four mouths after the policy of an immediate radical change in tariff was declared, the woolen mill?, many of them ior the first time in their existence, began to close, and employees were thrown out of work, many of whom are now dependent upon charity for support. There are several ways within the reach of the people themselves to lift the shadow of want that ov erhangs so many American homes to-dav. if thev will exert them- j - r selves quickly. Under proper conditions, the great agencies which poured millions of dollars of wages into the pockets of American workmen are ready to resume their full activity and to restore this nation to the prosper ous condition of one year ago. which was a source of so much wonder to other nations. Could the American people re ceive the assurance that the Mc Kinley tariff bill will be left un disturbed, this prosperity would quickly return. ' The speediest way to accomplish this is for con- cress to strike out the enacting clause of the Wilson bill. . It is a dangerous bill, 'and it will be im possible to amend it without stil leaving it a destructive and harm ful measure. Another effective measure for restoring prosperity is for the senate to pass at once one of those resolutions already offer ed by several senators, assuring the country that tariff revision will not be considered for a period of at least two years. If either of the above . acts are accomplished. within a few weeks thereafter ev ery factory will be busy: the bulk of the wool which now lies in warehouses uncalled for will be wholly inadequate to supply the , demand. Remove the threat " of destruct ive tariff revision and' the great prosperity of one year ago wil return. ' The voters themselves can do this, and it can be done by them alone. Trade Bulletin. Ex-President Harrison wil leave Indianapolis next week for California for the purpose of de livering his first course of lectures before the students of the Stanford University. ' The lectures have been completed and it is said are masterpieces on the subject: treated. After the course is com pleted the ex-president will spend a month or so in visiting various points in California, including the Midwinter Exposition. Co-operative associations are now experiencing a boom, due to the Cleveland hard times. They are just a little in advance of the soup houses which sprung into ex istence throughout the country. Repubicaks, organize for the nominsr frav. Now is the time to 0 - - do it. WASHINGTON LETTER. Washington, Jan. 15, 1893. Secretary Carlisle has one good trait; he knows where to look for good advice when he is in a hole. He is in a hole now, and it is a deep and dark one. Having called in vain upon Ins party associates iu congress for legis lation that would provide the money to meet the deficit made by the an nouncement of the Cleveland tanfl program, he has now called upon senator Sherman for advice and aid. Senator Sherman told the democratic senators at the time they declined his suggestion that the silver repeal bill should be amended so as to authorize an issue of bonds that the adminis tration would in the end have to is sue bonds. Well, the end is in I sight and the administration is going to issue bonds, with or without the consent of congress. If congress will authorize an issue of bonds they can be made to run a stsrt period and to carry only three percent interest; if congress will not authorize the bond issue, they are to be issued under the aw of 1875 and will consequently carry four or four and one-half per cent interest and will run a long tinie. The bonds have been printed and the official annoucement of their issue may be made at any time. Mr. Cleveland is as obstinate as ever. JNotwithstanding the humiliat ing position in which he is placed by the last batch of Hawaiian correspond ence, which includes President Dole's manly and straightforward answer to Minister Willis's demand that the provisional government retire in favor of the dissolute "woman who had pre viously announced her intention to behead her opponents as soon as she got back into power, and which was sent to the house Saturday and to the senate today (the senate was not in session Saturday), he still wishes to re store the queen, and is making use of the methods which have become so familiar since the meeting of the extra session to "convert" members of con gress to his views. If public opinion instead of being strongly opposed as it has been from the firsjhad been over whelmingly in favor of restoration this batch of correspondence, which in cludes the dispatches of Willis here tofore withheld, would have made re storation impossible. If plain arguments and incontro vertible facts counted for anything with democrat the Cleveland tariff bill would have been buried beyond hope of resurrection by those presented against it by the few republicans who have had an opportunity to speik during the absurdly short time allowed for general debate. The orders to railroad the bill are imperative and there is little probability that any of the numerous amendments which will be offered by dissatisfied democrats during the debate under the five- minute rule, which will occupy the rest of the time until the 29th, inst., when the bill will be voted upon, will be adopted. .but there is one conso lation ahead. Mr. Cleveland will not be able to recognize his bill when the senate finance committee gets through with it. Nothing could show plainer what the democrats of the house really want than the applause they gave to the out and out free trade speeches of Tom Johnson of Ohio, Jerry Simpson of Kansas, and Bryan of Nebraska They want free trade, and, as Repre sentative Black of Illinois, who wants to succeed Senator Cullom, put it, to reduce wages in the United States to the level of those paid in other parts of the world. That is a beautiful and enticing programme to lav Detore a nation of wage earners, now isn't it? lhe opposition to the income tax proposition has unquestionably fright ened the democrats who favor it. One result of the fright was the determin ation of the democrats of the. ways and means committee not to offer the income tax as ah amendment to the Cleveland tariff bill, but to report it to the house as a separate measure. An. other is the proposition, not yet def initely acted upon to hold a democrat ic caucus to decide whether the income tax shall be pushed or abandoned. The final result will be the same either way. The income tax may be forced through the house by a very small margin, but its death in the senate is certain. The minority report prepared by the republicans on the senate committee on privileges and elections against the bill for the repeal of the federal elec tions against the bill for the repeal of the Federal election laws which was passed by the house at the extra' ses sion and is now before the senate, is a document that fairly bristles with com mon sense reasons why these laws should, not be repealed. Common sense plays a very small part in demo cratic legislation, but there is a dim and shadowy hope that this bill may be defeated in the senate by demo cratic opposition to it It is known that Mr Cleveland's democratic friends in New York are afraid of the effects of repeal and that they have made their fears known to Mr. Cleveland and to some of the democratic senators. There is no significance in the elec tion of Hon. J. H. Manley of Me., to succeed Hon. T. H. Carter, of Mont., as chairman of the executive commit tee of the republican national com mittee. Mr. Carter wishes to be re lieved of a portion of the work. He still remains at the head of the national committee. Dan Vorhees, the Indiana sen ator, says that he voted against the income tax thirty years ago, and hop'es to vote for it now. Thirty years ago the income tax tvas imposed for. the- salvation of the union; to-day it is proposed at the instigation of what was then the disloyal south. The difference accounts for Dan Voorhees' change of heart. ADVERTISEMENT. Heppner, Jan. 16. (To the Ed itor.)

Duels in Austria are more interesting than French affairs, for sometimes they have blood in them. A particularly dramatic encounter is just reported from Vienna, where a well known phy sician, insulted by an officer, insisted on satisfaction, in spite of the fact that his antagonist was a professor m a mil itary fencing academy. The doctor was bo certain of victory that he made an appointment with guests for an hour eubseqnent to the combat. The weap ons were sharpened sabers. There were three rounds, in each of which the officer received a cut, the last siitting his cheek and depriving him of two teeth. The docto. was unhurt. The regimental physician declared, although the duel was over, that none of the wonnds was sufficiently serious. To end the dispute the principals agreed to meet again in the afternoon with pistols. Meanwhile the physician met his friends and traveled to Vienna, in tending to return after the dinner. He was scarcely seated in the railroad car riage before the conductor, slamming the door, crushed the thumb of his right hand. Upon his arrival at Vi enna an operation was performed by a professor in the university, who order ed him to carry his hand in a sling. " Although his pistol hand was useless, the doctor was punctually on the ground at the hour fixed. The signal being given, the military professor raised his pietol and fired carefully. The ball grazed the doctor's neck, and at first it was believed to have struck him. but he stood in his place un moved. Then, lifting his pistol : in his left hand, he fired. The officer fell heav ily to the ground. Rushing to his an tagonist, the doctor asked: "Are you ranch hurt? What do you. feel?" He received no - reply. His adversary, struck in the chest, lay unconscious. He is not expected to recover. The physician returned to Vienna, where on the same evening lie had to undergo, a second painful operation.

DEROUS TONGUES. How Wall Street Is Inclined to Trade Vptm Washington Falsehoods Egregious Uea Abont President Cleveland Bis Physioa? Condition Indifference For Walking;. Washington, D. C, Jan. 11. Special. Wall street has some peculiar connection with Washington. From what sources "the street" derives its information as tc what is going on in the capital no ou knows, but it gets some strange and won derful tips from these, parts. A few days ago, while President Cleveland, Secretaries Gresham and Carlisle and "Fighting Bob" Evan9 were down the river on a shooting trip, Wall street became very much ex cited. It had heard Heaven only knows how that President Cleveland was losing his mind; that he had completely brokes down; that he was in such a sad condition that his friends of the cabinet were consid ering the advisability of taking him awaj for a long rest. Wall street heard these things in some unaccountable manner and evidently placed more or less faith in them, because it fired a score of telegrams into Washington that day asking for the facts about the presi dent's condition. The bigger the lie the more quietly Wall street swallows it, hook, line, pole and sinker. Of course the rumors were absurd. While it is true that the president has some bad teeth in his head, and while it is true also that he is to some extent showing the effects of the long strain to which he has" been subjected, there is no man in this country in less danger of losing his mental faculties than Grover Cleveland. Bis fcind All Right. ' The senators, representatives and office seekers who call on him occasionally about appointments could not be made to believe that Mr. Cleveland is in any danger of los ing his mind. The sharp memory which enables him to call up almost every detail of a case the characteristics of aspirants, their faults and weaknesses, the nature of their indorsements, the objections made to them Rives no indication of waning mental powers. Mind specialists say the memory is usually the first thing to suffer-when any derangement of the cerebral organs ap pears, and by that test, if no other, Mr. Cleveland's mind is as clear as the tones of a silver belL The men who call on the president find him sharp, alert, keen in his analysis of character and conditions and fully able to cope with the bright men who do business with him. Stories are told every day of the president's remarkable power of carry ing small details in his mind. If any change whatever is noticeable in his manner, it is an increasing impatience, lack of tolerance, eagerness to get business off his mind not by .decision, but by procrastination. A Silly Charge Refuted. Of course these stories concerning Mr. -Cleveland's mental condition have been in circulation in Washington. But here, where the facts are known, scarcely a sec ond thought is given to them. When the president's special message on Hawaii made Its appearance a few weeks ago, some peo ple thought they could see in it evidences of the hand of Secretary Gresham. Feed ing their imagination with trifles, these extra wise persons declared the whole mes sage had been written by Gresham, and that all the president had done was to sign his name. lit the same way some smart persdns thought they could see evidences of the hand of Dan Liamont in the prepara tion of the president's annual message. During Mr. Cleveland's first term a great many people coul'l never be induced to be lieve anything else than that the presi dent's private secretary prepared all of the messages to congress, state papers and speeches. Of course the facts are, as we all know all who take the trouble to ascer tain facts that the president writes his own messages and state papers. He has always done so. The peculiar English of those documents is the president's own. The Hawaiian message was more charac teristic of Mr. Cleveland than anything he has written for years. It is absolutely un-1 mistakable. And how any intelligent man 1 could honestly suspect it to be Gresham'a ! work to whose style it bears no resem blance whatever is beyond fathoming. Whatever may be the strong or the weak points of Grover Cleveland as a public man, inability to prepare the state papers which bear his signature cannot be charged against him. Abont the White House. One of the penalties of fame is to be lied about. President Cleveland is no exception to the rule. Not long ago the newspapers were filled with stories to the effect that the president was a physical coward that he lived in daily fear of assassination. The tales had an increased force of watchmen on the White House grounds; they told of the president's sudden desertion of his country house for the executive mansion; they recited the fact that he had employed a mounted policeman to accompany him on his drives to and from Woodley; they laid great stress upoa the failure of the presi dent ever to take walks in the streets or abont the White House grounds. - There is just this much truth in these tales: The president left Woodley sooner than he had expected to do because he found too much time was taku from his work in passing to and fro, and because the approach of winter made the country seat less comfortable than the executive man sion. He did have a mounted policeman detailed to ride ahead of him along the lonely roads, but in doing so followed more the advice of Mrs. Cleveland and members of his cabinet, who urged him to prudence, than any promptings of his own fears. It was a wise and proper thing to do. In no other country in the world would a national ruler go about in lonely country roads, day or night, without attendance. There has been an increase of the watch force abont the .executive mansion, but the increase consists of the addition of a single man. Mr. Cleveland does not take valks in the streets or about the grounds, as Harrison, Hayes, Grant and other presidents did, for the reason that he docs not liLevalk ; claims net to need lb.! ejierciau, in does appear to get :i!o:: vwy well without it. On his vacations, v--!iet!ier in - ; iawHre, at Saranac lake or lt:vn the Po- uiao, Mr. Cleveland goes about as fear--.:yHiid unpretentious) as any jniviue The charge cf physical cowardice vif not li against him, all newspaper rtt'Cies to the contrary notwithstanding. Business. Detroit has a real estate dealer who knows bis business. The other day a friend was talking to him lu his office abont feminine beauty when m homely woman p;issed by. "There," said the first, "would you call that woman handsome?" "Of coarse I would," was the response, "if I wanted to sell her a house and lot at a stood price. "-Delroit Free Press. A Team to Start With. - ,' 4 We understand, says the Wayneaburg Republican, there is a young lady in Washington county with a sweetheart whose parents gave her a horse to quit him. She quit him and got the horse. After awhile the parents took a liking to the young man and gave her another horse to reinstate him. She did so and now has two horses. The result is they have a grod team to start with. HoodVGures Sharp Pains Short Breath, Heart Trouble, Rheumatism. Mrs. . !. Paine Eagle Creek, Oregon.
