The transitory nature of the free coin
age craze ia illustrated by the change of
sentiment among Kansas republicans.
Two years ago both of the senators and
five out of seven republican representa
tives voted for free coinage of silver, and
the republican convention sustained
their position in a resolution which said
" e, the republicans of Kansas, de
mand free coinage of silver." In less
than two years there has been such
change in opinion that the party in
Kansas is now almost unanimously op
posed to free coinage, and the the dele
gation to the national convention is in
structed to support for the nomination a
, man who is pledged against it. Two
years ago both parties in this state de
clared for free silver. This year the
republicans flatly receded from this
position while the democrats com
promised by declaring iu favor of put
ting silver on an equality with gold, to
satisfy the delegates who were in favor
of free silver and then elected delegates
to the national convention who were
known to be in accord with Cleveland's
views on the currency. The indications
are that before two more years have
expired free coinage will be as dead as
the old greenback craze of twenty years
ago.
The Telegram accuses W. E. Ellis of
being a "Moody man," that is, as inter
preted by the lelegram, a "railroad
man." The Telegram offers no proof for
its assertion, save that Z. F. Moody,
when governor, appointed Mr. Ellis to
the ofb.ce of prosecuting attorney. Mr.
JMiis is not regarded as a Moody man up
this way. He is not believed to have
gained his nomination by means of a
, single Moody vote. In fact the only
really Moody votes in the convention
from Eastern Oregon (one of them being
M. A. Moody himself) are believed to
have been cast, in the decisive ballot, for
State Senator Hilton and this, in spite
of the fact that Wasco county delegates
were instructed to support Ellis.
Be this as it may there is not
the slightest evidence that Mr.
Ellis owes his nomination to either
-Moody -or his not less objectionable
compatriot, Joe Simon, and it is to the
everlasting credit of Mr. Ellis that this
.is so.
-The democratic state convention did
an ungracious act in refusing to send
Governor Pennoyer to the National con
vention or to do him the flattering, if
harmless complaint of adopting a resolu
tion instructing the delegation to present
his name as Oregon's candidate for a
place on the national ticket. If there is
any peculiar glory attaching to the Or
egon democracy Governor Pennoyer has
won that glory for his party. If any
democrat holds office in a state republi
can by 7000 majority, he owes it to the
prestege and popularity of a -man whose
honestv and integrity are as far above
those of the average'politician as heaven
is above hades. Governor Pennoyer
may be eccentric, he may have notions
at variance with his party on questions
of public policy but be is the democratic
governor of a great republican state and
he won his honors, not by any of the
adventitious circumstances that so often
nlace the candidate of a minority in of
fice, but by the sheer force of his own
personal popularity. It was bad poli
tics to slap such a man in the face and
that it was done by a democratic con
vention only proves that the convention
was more influenced by policy than
gratitude. ' The Oregon democracy has
gone chasing after the fetich of Cleve
landism and Pennoyer'a knees are too
stiff to worship the Stuffed Prophet.
That accounts for the ungrateful action
of the state convention.
A CLOUD BURST.
The late C. H. Spurgeon was wont,
full often,., to speak strongly 'against
money-hoarding ; and many-have been
asking since his death how he, with, his
many exceptional opportunities in 'the
form of legacies left for his personal
benefit would prove to have acted. His
will, lately published shows a total
amount of about 10,000 pounds sterling,
including copyright valuations, etc
with an actual personality of about 2000
pounds. In view of such facts it will be
-conceded that Mr. Spurgeon practiced
what he preached.
The action of a party of Russian refu
gees at Chicago one day last week affords
a striking commentary on unrestricted
immigration. Twenty-five or thirty of
these refugees who had been housed and
fed for weeks at the public expense were
provided with work and requested to
leave. They tefused point blank andl
insisted on a continuance of charity,
protesting that they were not able to
work. The agents thought otherwise
and as a dernier ressort, ejected them.
After a short time the refugees returned
and made an attack on the building,
tearing down one of the doors. Police
were summoned who succeeded in quiet
ing the rioters for a time, but they soon
returned, backed up by a rabble from
the Btreets. The men again insisted
that they were unable to work but after
two or three hours wrangling with the
police they were forced to leave, which
they did, threatening the while to make
trouble. It is not about time that the
gates qf Castle Garden - were closed
against such immigrants?
" "Say, John, where did you get those
well fitting stylish shoes fromT" -
"Why, I purchased them of Tlie
Dalles Mercantile Company." -
"You don't say so V
"But why do you ask?'
"Because I have never seen such
shoes since I left Boston. What brand
did you say they were T ' .
"Why Walter H. Tenuey '& Co., of
course." -" .'. - .
"Well, now: I thought so. ' I am
right glad I met you, for I shall buy a
pair for myself, and take my family a
long too, for my children have always
worn them. And do you know 1 they
last a whole year."
"Yes, and you can get them in all
widths, and . prices, in men's, ladies,
misses, child's, infants, boys and youths.
And do you know, they are sold under
a guarantee!
"No. Why do they do so V
"Because they have a world wide
reputation, and can be relied upon."
The Walter H. Tenney Shoe is sold

Of
The
- Editor Curtis of the Astoria Herald is
a good writer and what is still more im
portant in an editor, -a splendid judge of
good writing. We make some preten
tions in this latter line ourselves and so
the other day running short on editorial
we clipped from the Herald an .article
fairly brestling with living thought
couched in most elegant diction and
never knew till an office pard informed
us that it was the product of our own
versatile and classic pen.
Here is the way Chas. Dana compli
ments his great political compatriot
JSrover Cleveland in the New York Sun :
"The popularity alleged of the Claimant
is as baseless as his democracy. Mug
wump politics and moral hypocracy are
offensive to every one trained in the
sehool of American Republicanism.
Monsieur de Buffalo is a back number.
Take him away !"
A correspondent of the Telegram, who
signs himself a "bed-rock democrat,"
charges the late democratic state con
vention with having been controlled by
"gold bugs and free traders." ' He says
the platform, except the part "jabbed in
about the ship railway subterfuge," was
moulded out and dried in Wall street
and shipped by express to "A. Bush,
banker, Salem, Oregon."-- .-. ; N
The Poi tland Telegram defines a
"Moody man" as a "railroad man, an
.Annmv tit on niwn MfOv a a ovoiv nrta
familiar with Oregon politics"know8."
There is a Websterian ' accuracy about
this definition.
There were recently received at Astoria
from San Francisco three tons of Ameri
can tin, which will be used in the
canneries. -
Wool is less than half the price it was
20 years ago. In 1872 the price of col
onial wools in London was $133 per bale.
The same wool today sells for 66. The
decline has been steady and nearly uni
form. This decline is easily accounted
for. In 1870 Australia produced only
134,000,000 pounds of wool. In 1890 the
product was 265,000,000, almost double
the production of 1870. The Argentine
Republic in 1870 produced 167,000,000
pounds ; in 1890 295,000,000. The United
States, in 1880, produced 167,000,000
pounds; in 1890 271,000,000 pounds
With this enormous increase, vastly ex
ceeding the increased demand, ia it any
wonder that the price of wool has de
clined? No tariff law on earth can con
travene the law of supply and demand
at the same time the tariff law of the
United States is the only thing that has
maintained wool raising among the
profitable industries of the country.

3-29tf - Mrs. J. Bolton.
Foreign wool has declined 30 per cent.
within a year. At recent London col
onial wool sales prices declined 5 per
cent, below the previous auctions which
were the lowest ever reached in ' Europe,
American wools have declined 10 per
cent, within a year. The protection af
forded to American wools is the "only
thing that has not made their decline
equal to that of foreign wool. Remove
this protection and the 20 per cent dif
ference would vanish and the wool in
dustry of the United Slates would be in
as bad a condition as the cotton indus
try of the South" ' We cannot compete
with countries that can produce wool
profitably at seven or eight cents a
pound.
The Spokane Review refers to a para
graph that appeared in the Chronicle
last week, about the yearling seedling
cherry tree now in bloom in the
Chronicle show - window, and says i
This fairly breaks the record. It is a
common thing for trees in the Inland
Empjre to come into bearing in three
years, but for a tree to bear fruit when
six or eight months old has never been
known, even in this favored section.
The value of products shipped from
the United States during the twelve
months ending March 31, 1892, reached
the enormous total of $1,006,000,000.
This beats all previous record in the
history of the nation. The figures prove
that, whatever opinions men may have
about the "billion dollar congress," this
is a "billion dollar country" and no
mistake. '
Thirty-four states of the union have
