We wish some of the advertisers in the West Bide would expres them selves on this subccL It is oue ol importance. ' It cannot be decided from the standpoint of a proprietor alone. What do you think about it? If it makes no difference bow a man makes money just so that he makes it then there would be but little honesty in mis worm, it uoes make some difference and while a man may pros per for a while by diiibouest methods he will finally come to grief. Tbe alow steady plodder lu uiouey getting is the one whe comes out ahead iu the long run. A man must give value received for whatever he gets aud on that account iu these days of low wages tbe margins are very close. There Is a faacluatlon in making money rapidly which few can realm and many an honest man becomes lu such cases really dialioneat without knowing it. Times have Improved greatly over the whole United Htates during the past six months, yet they still luck much of being where they should be, The expense of our government are far in excess of Its income and as conseqnence our finances are In a bad condition. An Increase lu our public debt of $300,000,000 during the Cleve land administration seem like pretty large figures. In order to pay that deficiency alone will require nearly one year's Income of our government The republican party has no easy problem to solve in getting our country back In the right path. Whether there be any truth or not in the rumor (for it seems to be nothing more) that the Southern Pacific is going to operate an express train over the motor line from Independence to Monmouth thence to Portland, yet if there Is any advantage to be gained by our city In having a daily morning and evening train our citizens should make some move toward securing It. It is in such matters as this that a board of trade is required so that con certed, well advised action may be taken. The advantages to us of river transportation should not be overlooked however. A vigorous protest should be entered by the American people against the appointment of consuls to foreign countries who are lacking In the qualities necessary to make them of value to the commercial interests of this country. The salarlis and fees paid range from $3,000 to $00,000 a year, and tbe very best material can be obtained. The national boards of trade should take up this matter and exercise some sort of supervision over our consuls. The complaint against our present consuls is wide-spread. Senator Brlce may need the money he has contributed to the Ohio pro hibitionists for use in this campaign. But whether , he does or not it Is absolutely thrown away. Wheu the republican party gvtsbaek Into power it must first regulate our resources so that we may have wort Income than outgo. Next our finance will receive attention. Then will come the Nicaragua canal and Hawaii. Woiuans suffrage is going to out some figure lu the coming years. Improve inputs lu our postal system la needed. Then our consular appointments should be regulated so that better turn may fill the positions. That will com in 1SUT. A lieu ownership of our lauds should be regulated. The above are only few of the public durations waiting solution by party. - the republican I The Theodore Durrani trial, now going ou In San FrauclaMi, la palling ou the public luterest iu its disgusting details.

On Huuduy we visited the hop fields of Messrs Merrill, Cooper and Perclval. l'be crop Is in excellent condition, and but little moid and lice are found. These yards are located just across the river from Independence, and are the lurgest in Unit section. The magnitude of harvesting u large crop of h(.ps can inly be realized by seeing. Over 5(X) pickers are engaged in the.e yards, and eight largo dry houses are kept busy. Verily, It Is a cause of wonderment to the looker-on bow there can he any money in the business to the grower, ut the prevailing price, with such an out luy for curing for the crop. A dispatch from In dependence to the Ortgnnian last Kuluaday stated that there was a probability of the Houthern Pacific Co. purchasing the motor truck and running a train to Dallas. Thie we would be glad to see; but the motor munugers deny that any such thing has been thought of by them.
