She bM Juat won the grandest republican victory ever achieved In the state. OREGON contains within her bor ders the beat-read people of any state la the Union. OREGON embraces within iter ter ritorial limits the best climate and matt productive soil to be found east or west of the Kockr mountains. OREGON'S wheat fields cannot be excelled by those of any other country ' In the world, and beet of alt, her crop never tail ' - OREGON presents to the eye of the traveler scenery un equaled by any other country, aud her high peaks, cov ered with everlasting snow are refresh ing to look upon In the midsummer days. OREGON bas schools and churches scattered thickly all over the country, and her people evince the most intense Interest In the cause of education. OREGON has the most pleasant Rammers and the least severe winters of any of our sister states. OREGON abounds in Iron and coal sufficient to supply Uie wants of the world." ' OREGON hat the Ut timber to be found. The fir is the king of timbers. Experiments have proved it to be the most durable and desirable timber in the known world fur ship building. OREGON claims to have In the U. B. senate two of the ablest statesmen in that body. OREGON has the wealthiest city (Portland) in the whole United Htates, according to population. OREGON has the most beautiful river (the Willamette) that can be found between the Atlantic and Pa cific coasts. To the intending settler or home seeker, Oregon offers advantages not to be lightly considered. A fertile soil, cheap lands aud a pleasant climate con spire to make Oregon one of the choic est spots on this mundane sphere. Andwithin the borders of Oregon may be found Polk county, situated in the heart of the Willamette valley, and conceded by all to be the banner county of Oregon. And within the borders of Polk county is Independ ence, situated on the west bank of the Willamette river, and the commercial metropolis of the county. Come and see us. hop crop of Into vicinity promises an abundant yelUL The late frosts gave the producers some alarm when the heavy frosts occured, but no damage has been done, aud all speak of their nop growing at a more rapid rate than was ever known before. Of the Oregon hops, Polk county takes the feed in quantity of yeald aud quality, as has been conceded by hop raters In other localities. ; juts sdoum give great encourage ment to our hop raisers, and nerve them to put forth greater energy In cultivating their fields, thus stlruulat ing their growth and production, and thus make this point the center of the hop industry on this coast, and more and more attract business men engaged In the purchase and sale of hopst Independence lies In the heart of the Willamette valley, surrounded on all sides with a rich alluvia soil, much of It has never had a plough run through it, and now, when this as yet uncul tivated soil shall have been brought Into cultivation, the vast amount of produc tions that will be shipped from this point, will be a source of wealth that we cau not conceive of at the present Unto. The greatest of these produc tions will be hops, and the man who now owns a few acres In this locality, or now purchases a tract of laud, will be amply rewarded, and a few years hence tfaoae tract of land will enhance in value fifty or one hundred Ibid. Put in hops. "The republicans are in It, the dem ocrats are under it," Yes, republicans are In the swim buoyant with bopes,and flushed with victory. The democrats are under It, beneath the flood, seeking for that populist bait that lured them to defeat Our popuiM friends about here seem to think, that the wool has been pulled over somebody's eyes, but my dear populists, the wool has just been lifted, the people's eyes have been restored to sight, and they have seen that detno-populisni would lead to the devil or some other seaport, and they boldly took pasaage on the republican ship that will bear them safely to the harbor of peace and security. When our next legislature meets it is to be hoped that a man will be elect ed who will faithfully work for and guard the interests of the people of this county, one who will lend his strength to restore a party wboee record Id the past has demonstrated beyond all doubt that it is the party which gives the people prosperity and protects them from coropetion, with paupers of foreign countries. The republican party has never wavered in It devotion to the people, sod when a republican president and congress takes the nelm, as It will in 1896, prosperity will once more beam upon us. Within the past year the democratic admlnistratien has cost this country more than all the expenses of the war, on both sides, and there is no telling where the expense will end. There are good indications that many of the life-long adherents of the party are opening their eyes to the gravity of the situation, ana that they will never again be found among the countrysde- stroyers. If the recent elections mean anything they mean that a turn in the tide of misfortune is coming, and if the ptople can but survive the present reign, their emancipation is sure. The ebb-tide of democracy has set 'in, and It will continue to ebb and ebb until nothing is left of it. THE HOP INDUSTRY. The hop Industry on this coast Is be coming of vast importance to the people of Oregon, as well as to' those engaged in it Whilst the production or wneat seems to be more and more unprofitable, the hop crop, is one that proves the most remunerative, and in surer to the producer greater profits as the Pacific coast hops become known in European countries. Oregon hops are receiving attention from those engaged in manufactories where hops are a neccessity in tbeir manufaeturingindustry, and the more they become known the greater the demand for them. From all reports, the Before March, 1895, thirty United States senators are to be elected by' the legislatures of the country. It is highly essential to the welfare of every resident of the United States that these senators be republicans. The policy of the democrats has been given a thorough trial, and the trial lias teen an ex pensive one to the wage earners of the country. The first step toward restor ing the couutry to sound national policies is to secure a republican majority In the senate and house of rep lesentalivee. To secure a majority in the senate we must elect republican legislatures. annual revenue of 700,000 by a eon ttuuanceof republican principles and policy In the administration of the affairs of the government. The republican party propmee to put forth all its effort to promote the teres of all claaae of people, and when it obtains full control, of the govern nent affairs, (which the signs of the times give evidence of It being near at band) the ryofdurw and bard Unit will bo more be beard, but peace, pros perity and plenty will abound In the land. ' Price of labor, and of most all com modities are tome what higher ou this coast, than they are East of the Ilockic. Ub atimetlnm the ease that persons coming to this coast complain of prices asked for some kind of mechanical work and for some of their uewaearfea, but they should remember that In most Instances, they receive more for their work than they did In the East I it ... a . . ' wavn Hy naiieo rrom, aud con sequently they must conform to the price ruling on this coast, and not enter complaints agaiuat the people of the country. Let such coniplaJner remain until they become accustomed to our manner of living and doing Mttineas, and their complaints will .The election te a thing of the. past, political excitement has In a great measure subsided, and the people are assuming their wonted ludustry, aud pursuing tbeir usual avocations with a view of securing that which pertains to their Individual, and domestic wet fare. Crops are growing finely, and yet, from reports of farmers, they do not expect as bountiful a yield of graiu as they did one month ago. From con tinued rains, and unusually cool weath er, the promise of an abundaU yield I not now as flattering. Hut, Oregon crop never fall, and the Indubious husbandmao, can, at seed time, w wlth the assurance, that our prolific soli, will at harvest, yield a fair, if not a very abundant crop. The Wert Bidk learns that tlx Inter state Commerce Commtelon, has decided that th Bout hero Pautflc must give to the Motor Line miming be tween Independence and Monmouth, connection with their road at lion mouth by a switch that will facilitate travel Northward and (Southward, proposition has been made to less the use of the a P. road to the motor line at 15 per cent of the receipts for travel over that road, leaving Independence at 9:30 A, M. and returning at 11 P. M., and at 230 A. M. and 3 P. M. with opportunities for special trips at other times of tbe day when deemed necetma ry. This would be a great advantage to people along the line, and sb uld speedily be carried Into effect. The campaign recently closed was between orgaolzed extremists who advocated the most visionary schemes, upon the one hand, and earnest business men who belive in honest business methods In the conduct of private and governmental affair on the other. rbe almost nut versa) success of tbe latter is tbe strongest endorsement which the people of Oregon could have written. By a mighty stroke of the ballot they have condemned populism and all its vagaries Pennoyer and all his demogogery. Verily 11 was a good days work, will be well remembered, and In time to come all will be glad to h-!-s acknowledge that the republican honesty always victory of ISM, was a God send to the Pluck, brains and tell in business, in tbe profession or in I people of Oregon the most menial and servile Institu tions In life. Tbe man or woman who possesses these qualifications above bis or her associates will sooner or later stand at tbe head, not only the indl viduala but tbe Institutions or people they represent will meet with propor tionate success. In our schools, col leges, universities and public offices, men of brains, pluck and Integrity should be placed, at the helm.' The people demand It, the Interests of the state demand it. The election Is over, the principles of tbe republican party have been vln dicated by tbe voice of the people in Oregon. What doe this signify as to tbe future prosperity of the people of Polk, if our national elections shall be the same? It Is estimated, according to the rules governing the sugar beet Interest, that Polk county, with four sugar beet factories established, would be entitled to her proportion of the bounty arising therefrom, which would amount to about two hundred thousand dollars. The factories would cost about $1,500,000. Besides this it would give employment to at least five hundred employes in the factories. It would also add 10,000 acres to the cultivation and production of beets, 5,000 men to care for this cultivation, which, with the successful production of these beets, and their manufacture into sugar, would bring to Polk county alone an' Tbe "Organs" are now warming up and making faces at one another. They speak well of themselves, but of no one else. "Tbey bowl and they paw in the front yard, but in the back yard, cney utugu ana cnucsie at" tbeir ap parent sum. In the langusge of of Lincoln; "You can fool all the people some of the time; some of the people all tbe time, but not all the people all tbe time." Pennoyer, baa been successful two campaigns In fooling the people, but in the last campaign tbe people failed to be gulled by foolishness any longer. Pennoyer bas blown bis last born whereby there was a possibility to elect himself to office. Our 70,000,000 people,' according to Mulhall, the greatest of ajl statisticians, equal In consumption 700,000,000 other people, or half the population of the world outside our own boundaries. Under protection tbii great home mar ket is ours. The freetraders wish to throw It open to Europe, and to give us a chance to compete for other markets on the same working basis as the for eign pauper 1ibor.
