AMERICAN SKIPS
In "Thursday's Daily Observer, atten
tion was called to the significant fact that
of the 28 ships at and enroute from
foreign countries to port in Portland
Oregon, not one was an American owned
ship. For the eight months ending with
August 190S the total imports of foreign
stuffs into the United States were valued
at the ports of entry at S77Q.4 12,026 of
which S341.822.835 worth of stuffs en
tered without paying any tariff and $428,
689,1 91paid a duty or tariff.
Of the total imports into the United
States in the eight months ending with
August 1905 amounting to $770,4 12,
026 worth, of which cars' and other land
vehecles brought to the United States
stuffs valued at $52,175,414 leaving
$718,236,612 worth that came to us
from foreign lands in ocean going ships.
During the said period American steam
ships brought ut $105,638,760 worth of
imports' and American sailing vessels
$6,251,249 worth, making a total value
of the imports that reached us in that
period on board of ships that floated the
flag of the United States amounted to
$111,889,999 which left $658,622,327
that came to us in foreign ships. These
figures show that of the imports that
reac'iei the ports of the United States
for the eight months ending with Augus
1 905 in American owned ocean ships
was less by $46,898,618 worth than one
sixth of thp whole amount of our imports
in ocean going ships.
It is not a pleasant dilemma to contem
plate to know that we are dependent
upon foreign ships to Wing more than
five sixths of the stuffs we purchase
from abroad, but the condition of our
exports gives little consolation,
The total exports of farm products and
domestic merchandise from the United
States for the eight months ending with
August 1905 was of the value of $947,
427.140 of' this $110,614,770 worth
came in cars and other land vehicles,
$32,046,984 in American steam vessels
and . $5,673,350 worth in American
sailing vessels, making a total of our
foreign exports of farm products and
domestic merchandise that was carried
from us by our own ships of $87,620,-
334, and that $749,492,036 worth of
our farm and homemade merchandise
was carried from our ports during the
eight months ending with August, 1905
to foreign markets in foreign owned ocaan
going ships, of this $514,380,050 worth
was under the English flag.
Indoor base bill has never attracted
much interest in this city. It is very
popular in other portions of the state.
Two feet of snow is ' reported at the
summit at Kamela. This will remain
until the warm winds of summer permit
it to melt and swell the streams which
insure good crops.
We expect great things in this city in
1 906 and the way to start the ball roll
ing is to make the annual convention of
Northwestern Fruitgrowers Association,
which meets in this city on January 3d.,
4th. and 6th., a success. While we real
ize that this is not La Grande's associa
tion alone but a meeting that all parts of
the county will take pleasure in making
an unqualified success. However the
details 'which will make it a success or
not will fall upon La Grande, Don't let
us overlook anything but what will per
mit every visitor returning home with a
feeling of delight that it was his good
fortune to have been present
I .
' Who wiUGovernor Chamberlain appoint
as Senator Mitchell's successor?
While we are not afraid but what there
will be an abundance of candidates to
fill all of . the places on the ticket It is
quite evident that at the present time few
have announced themselves in this county
as compared with other sections of the
state. Thara is plenty of time however
After the holidays are over polices will
warm. up. and the people will inform
themselves . regarding the provisions of
the new primary law. .
