The (rait crop of Oregon ia more than millioo dollar crop. If the weather conditions are favorable in 1900 oar state will bare more than 1000 car of dried prune alone to eend to the outside mar kets. Oar hop crop is more than a mill ion dollar crop. Our salmon catch is nearly a two million dollar consideration annually. We send vast quantities of wheat, and floor, wool and beef cattle, lumber and numerous other products to outside markets. Besides these there are undeveloped resources of untold wealth. These conditions are encour aging, but in the face of all this there are existing evils to be overcome. We are sending; away enormous sums of money each year to the East and to for eign countries for things we should raise or make at home. These include nearly the whole range of manufactured arti cles, large and small. Not only this, but we are buying agricultural products from outsiders. Not in small quantities but by the car load and train load. The pork product, for instance. There are five great packing firms of the Eastern cities with houses established in Port land. They are selling to the people of this state more than a million dollars' worth of the pork products of the East ern states. Think of this! There is bat one home concern to compete with these five Eastern concerns, and the business of the borne firm is said to have been falling off in the past year or two. There ia a remedy for this evil. The fanners of this state can raise and fat ten bogs as well as the farmers of the East. Proper encouragement ia all that is needed to stimulate this industry in this state. The proper encouragement lies in the establishment of and patron age of home establishments for curing and handling the pork product of borne farmers. There is plenty of home cap ital for such purposes. The banks are full of idle money. Intereet rates are going down and capital for investment in such enterprises could certainly find employment with big returns. Oregon ought to retain every dollar that is being sent away. Almost 1100,000 monthly leaves the state for food products which should be raised at home, and thus saved to the people of the state. Not only this, but Oregon should be the consignor of great quantities of cured pork to markets outside the state. This could be done if the energy was directed along the proper lines by our farmers. can get very few votes from the West under present conditions. It was the business depression resulting from the democratic panic of 1893 which created the conditions in the Went which gave the democracy several states ia the Miss- iawippi valley and on tit Pacific slope in 1890. Republican prosperity has en sued since then, and the entire situation ia changed. Tliia is w hy the reports of business activity and general prosperity throughout the West, which come from democrats and republicans alike, have a diehearU'iiiiiif effect on the ilemocratir leaders. It means sweeping victory for the republican party in 1800. HOULTON NOT KB. Thosi persons who are criticising the Philippine campaign should not be too hasty in forming conclusions. Let them carefully consider the difficulties attend ing a warfare in a tropical country, and, perhaps, they will not be so ready to pass judgment upon President McKinley and beneral Otis, who have tried to bring the war to a speedy close. There is one feature of the campaign in the Philip pines which the cbronio kickers over look. The American army defeated the Filippinos in every battle and skirmish engaged, and with great loss to the en emy. Here is a bard nut to crack for those who are anxious to criticise Gen eral Otis because be has not brought the war to a speedy close. What assur ance have we that another general could have done better with the army Otis had at his disposal T Had the Ainericau army met with severe defeat there would have been some cause for this un just criticism of General Otis. He nat urally thought, after so many severe chastisements had been inflicted upon the enemy, they would be ready to quit and sue for peace. And in this conclu sion Mr. Otis was not alone. Hundreds of thousands of people were of the same opinion but it did not work out and we fail to see the justice in condemning the general on that score. j THE VALUE OF ROADS. Scientific American's Estimate Their True Worth. of NOT ENCOURAGING CONDITIONS. One of the facts which has a discour aging effect on the leaders of the demo cratic party is the great increase in in dustrial activity in the West. Every body, democrat as well as republican, who tells anything nowadays about the social conditions in the Western states, mentions the prosperity which is dif fused through all of them. Business is more active in all of them than was ever known before. The reports of bank clearances from all quarters of the West show an immense increase in transac tions since last year at this time. The earnings of the Western railroads the highest figures ever touched. Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Vanderlip, who has juBt returned from a tour through the several slates in the Mississippi valley, is eloquent about the evidences of industrial activity and pros perity which he saw on every hand He remarks that this is killing the sil ver issue as a democratic dogma. Dem ocratic leaders in the West are saying the same thing. There is a strong dis position among the shrewder democratic magnates of the Western states to take up some other issue, and let silver drop out altogether, or put it so far in the background that it will not figure with any prominence in the canvass. The Stones, Bryans, Joneses and Altgelds are apparently still anxious to stick to it, and they are likely to carry the con vention with them, but the wiser men Of their party, both politicians and editors, are urging their side to give up that issue and talk of something else. The defection of the West is a serious thing for the democracy. It was on the West that the democratic bosses looked for a great part of their electoral votes next year. They knew that the number of states which they can carry in the South will not furnish them with more than half the number of votes which their party will need to give it the vic tory. The South has long since ceased to be solid for democracy. Many votes will have to come from the West to that party if it is to have any chance to win.. The democratic leaders know that they The oeation of good roads is one which ill not down, simplv because it is ever present, always staring as in the face and continually appealing to condemna tion or our pocket-books. Constant dis cussion is necessary on most all subjects in order to rouse public attention, so that a force ia organized to carry reform into practice. It mav require a score or more years to so impress the people with the moral and material wealth bound un in mod roads before thorn will be organized that common sentiment which will do awav with nnr lat !ic of barbarism a bad or unjiaseibte road. The Scientific American turns aside from its particular specialty to call attention to the subject under review, and makes the following statement: "If there ever were two classes of peo ple that had a good cause in common. they are the bicyclists and farmers. The question on which their interests agree is that of the need of good roads ; lor, wtiiie a naru, smooth surface is an absolute necessity to the wheelman, it is of even more vital importance to the farmers, seeing that the condition of the roads makes a serious difference one way or the other in his yearly pro fits. As the result of an inquiry made in 1895 by the United States department of agriculture, replies were received from over 1,200 counties, giving the cost ui uaujiug cropv in various parts oi toe country. The average load hauled was found to be 2.000 pounds; the average length of haul, 12 1-10 miles; the aver age cost of hauling a ton of crops to market was 13.10; while the average I cost of hauling a ton for a distance of one mile was 25 cents. In order to com pare the roads of the United States with Europe, the bureau, through its consuls, made careful inquiry on the subject of hauling in England, France, Germany, Belgium, Italy and Switzerland. The average cost of hauling one ton one mile was found to be in England 10 cents, in Germany 83 cents, in France 10 cents, in Belgium B'i cents, in Italy 7 cents, and in Switzerland from 6 to 8 cents; the average for all these Euro pean states being 8 6-10 per ton per mile. More than one cause mav enter into thin determination of cost, but that the great cost in Amprira ia ilnp tr nnr tw..lv made dirt maiia ia r, rnvfit hv Va ! that while over the superb roads of Europe a farmer will haul three or four tons at a load, oar farmers are able to haul only a ton or les than a ton over the 'plow and wrapt: r' ridge of soil which even at this late day is dignified by the name of road in many parts of the country." Farmers generally know from sad ex perience what they endure when taking the fail crops to market corn, wheat, potatoes, tobacco, bay and so on but seldom estimate the "increased cost of transportation and loss in Dries for nro- ducta in dollars and cents. They often make three trips a day when only one with good roads is necessary. Tbey must have extra horses to feed, more harness, and to this must be added wear and War, loss of time, harder work and the moral effect of loss of tenioer and the ability for friendly intercourse, it being a task to get to church or the post office, let alone visiting neighbors, dur ing six months of the year at least. All this we pay dearly for, and so we submit the figures of the Scientific American for careful thought. Mrs. J. F. Braddock visited Portland one day last week. Mrs. IX Henshaw and H. A. Perry were roruanj visitors Wednesday. M. J. Rnglort came down from Scap- I puuee on the noon train last l-riuay.

Another bear element has entered into the Willamette vallewood market. It la the great activity of the sawmills, especially in Portland, making the sup ply oi siao wood tor met purposes much larger than for a number of years. The almost total failure of the fruit crop, and the consequent small demand of wood for drying, has served to depress the wood market. One of the state institu tions has been buying good wood for 1.90 cord. In this case, however, there was a wry short haul. It ia esti mated that the slabs and other refuse of the big tcno.QOO sawmill to ba erected at Albany will pay for the transportation of the logs from the timber. This is one of the reasons for the desire to lo cate the plant in that city, instead of in the timber. Statesman. A Mother Tell How Hhe Saved Her Little IBKhter'a Life.

IXm't lend your farm tools too much to your shiftless neighbors (if you have any) ; they may make you do what they win not ao tnemseives; ttiat is, to buy again. There are occasions when all must borrow, but it has grown to be too muen oi a practice, and they will not buy. iJon't ire a-tishinir when vou should no a-field. Reverse the order and go a-field ami men go a-nsning. iKin't snend too much of vour time in keeping posted as to the progress of the war or the political outlook, while the weeds are growing on the farm. Keep posiea on meee matters; but devote a portion of your time to studying the farm. Don't let the branches of your apple trees srrow too thick. Prune them right liberallv every year. Tha trunk ran not furnish vitality for too much top. Prune them, and yon will find they will do much better than if neglected in this respect. Don't fail to subscribe for two or three good farm publications, and then read and study them carefully. They will give you timely hints and auggentiona as to me management oi the arm. Don't grumble too much at the weather; you may think it rains too much or too little. Just be patient and do your part. Don't leave your farm tools exposed to the weather ; it is a bad plan, as you will see after you have had a little ex perience. Don't keep too many does; some six or seven are enough for one man. (I only keep two; but then I am not a dog fancier.) Don't let your hogs run at large unfed, if you would have them active. They will become breachy and get up trouble for you with your neighbors. Don't grow impatient if your farm work is bard and pressing; juBt think of harvest time and tie patient. Don't forget that these dont'a are in tended for you. J JR. EDWIN UOSa, PHYSICIAN AND SURGEON.
