It would be disastrous to the aheep men, to their employees, and to all de pendent on them for patronage if wool should be alow sale at a low figure. - Last fall when cattle took euob a terrible slump nobody claimed it. was a benefit to Eastern Oregon. Vbon horses, a feW years ago did not pay for the raising, tbe wealth of this section was not materially increased ' When lumber was so cheap, a while back that all the mills in Eastern Hre gon suspended exoept three, nobody claimed that obeap lumber was a gcod thing, The way to create wealth and pros perity is to hsve the product! ot tbe farms, ranohes and mllle bring good round prices. Labor ie then employed at good wagea and everybody Is happy. Now, tbe thing we want to nod out ia how to produce these drsirable results. The sheep men, the cattlemen, the farmers, tbe lumbermen, the merchants and every occupation, can In a measure control their own affairs, and get good prices for everything they produce or handle." We will draw two pictures by way of illustration. Takes aaw mill man for instance He haa a fine mill, splendid facilities for handling his timber snd his output and bsa plenty of reserve limber, , He pays good wages and pays promptly on His other bills never go de He makes money. . His basinets grows. He is prosperous. When the old belts and sawa and machines wear out he bas plenty of moniy to buy new and better ones. He circulates money all around and his presence is like s ray of sunshine. Take tbe other man. He lias a ram shackle outfit. He don't make gud stuff. He can't pay his men nor bis arocarv bill He hasn't the stock to Dixie Carnival Co Ar rived this Morning Will Show Tonight-- Many Attractions It's here. It cams this morning.
