Ai a result of the extensive move meat of grain in the East and Wst boxcar famine M threatened. Mcbuu ley to to blame for these famines. With the price of wheal going nP aad the price of ailrer going down, in fact good price for ell products, is killing off populism and Bryaoum fatter than aoj other argument can do. The gold reserve is hovering around the 1143,000,000 mark. The popocraU are not Ulking to loud aboat McKio lej laenlog bonds. They will soon have to face aboat and talk "reduce the aurplaa." 8urc Brjran'a deles the Nebraskaus haTe paid off indebtedness to the ex tent of $28,000,000. There i nothing the natter with Nebraska except that the pope hypnotised it into thinking itself ragged, penniless and crooked. As American in tbeClondyke write bans: "There is no language strong enough to describe the fierceness of the mosquitoes. They would toon kill a person if gloves aoJ veiling were act constantly worn." Alaskans will feel better when they hear that the New Jersey mosquitoes this year are just as dangerous. Thms are cold days for populism. With wheat at 79 cents, hay $1150, potatoes 60 cents, beef, gross, 2.75; iui. 10 to 11 eects: populist stock in trade (calamity) is away belew par. It Is, indeed, too bad that prices should advance iast at a time when depres sion is so essential to populiat success a party that can grow only npon iae misfortunes of the people. ram Pnhans are hammering at the verv Kates of Havana while Weylers unt of thousands is entrenched with in the city; and yet that decisive blow which the captain general has prom ised for so long is not dealt The Cu hana aasm to do about as they please and when the Spaniards give chase the are out of the way, only to con nmti at some Other point and pro ceed with, their nsual tactics practic al! unmolested. . Pornirrs are queer people. One living near Dallas, Polk county, on a km. aav ha is still waiting lor , . mMixan nmaneritv. and when told " that ha conld ret rood prices for any of his farm product now, said, "Yea, hat ICeKinley ha not given us any anand moneT yet." Another one. when asked if he could name "a single nmdnat that did not command a befr tr nrv than could have been had darinr Cleveland's administration" aaid: "Yes, peach pluuis.' Polk County Observer. ! T.nrone'a wheat crop for 1897 will be from 100.000,000 to 120,000.000 bnahela smaller than that of 1896, and a the reserve of wheat on hand at tha oreaent time are lower than they were at this season in the past sight or ten years, the wbsat market for the Mt mii air aicht months i likely to be strong. This is a decidedly fortu nate eircomsUnee for the United States wheat-grower. He will, from rtnaent erOD indications, have from 75.000.000 to 10000,000 bushels more to sell than hs had in 1896. Here is eoe of the causes for the recent growth in batinesa confidence in the west, It to slated upon good authority thai there have been sold and trans ported from the Nehalem valley dor inr the past six months as many cat Uses bad been marketed from the same section during the preceding five wears. And yet a majority of the peo ple in that section, we believe, still de clare that then is no indication of business improvement. The only limit to sales made, fro in the valley was the short supply. Any number could have been sold had they been on the market Many of those who have neither cattle, hogs or sheep to sell, of course, complain of bard time ad scarcity of money. Money al ways wJl be scarce with that class of neoDle until they utilize the soil and muscle with both of which nature has supplied them, to produce something for the market There has not been a time when beef would not sell for csh, and ths failure of any to have money to the fault of him who has failed to modnee the cash article. All, of course are not in a position to produce for the market, but there are many who are in such circumstances and have neglected their opportunity. The man who improve bis time in Oregon need not suffer for the necessaries of hie, ; BlTTSaTlXSS. j "Better times are surely upon us, and they appear first in unexpected quarters. It is in the country, the farming and erasing and frait-raiting and mining and lumbering districts, and the towns and villages to which they are tributary, that prosperity ha first put in an appearance, rather than in the great centers of finance sod commerce. Politics, the tariff, have nothing to do with it Good crop here, failures abroad ; great gold die eoverie; and renewed determination nd effort among the common, bum ble toiler of the country, have brought better time wiftlyioto view. The politiciau and (peculators will claim all the credit, but they are entitled to none of it, whatever. God or Good Luck sun and soil, and enterprise, and effort a concatenation of fortu nate conditions, and the silent, stesdy work of the millions these have brought prosperity in spile of the spec ulating and political vampire." The above is an editorial comment from the Portland Sunday Welcome, one of the leading democratic papers of tb state, and does not tally with the statement iterated and reiterated by the calamity organs that prosper ity can only come through the tree coinaz of silver. Notwithstanding the assertions of calamity howlers to the contrary, times are improving, and the honest journals of all political parties acknowledge it, and we have not free coinage of silver, neither is the country flooded with irredeemable paper. The principal reason for the improvement in busioes is, no doubt, from the tsct that the government is once more upon a policy that nas proven ssfe and brought prosperity in the psst, and that the policy now in force cannot be tampered with during the next four year. It is true that prices of commodities have risen, for which there must have been a cause, and that cause cannot be attributed to any other source thsn a renewal of confidence among business men, who mor satisfied that every dollar in vested would be returned in as good money as that paid out One condi tion alone cannot bring gcod times, but one condition alone can make the fan nd alios unon which to build for the future, and that foundation was laid in the confidence that the repub licans would elect the president last fall, and the consummation oi mat belief on election day. "Prosperity is not being broken off in large chunks' as some of our contemporsnes are Dleaaed to state, but that prosperity i comics eradually is acknowledged by all journals not blinded by prejudice.
