Washington, 1.C., May 13 1901 Minister Conger talked at every stopping place between l'ekin and Washington, but since he reported at the Popartmont he has boon at mum as a clam, except to reverse the assertion he made just after landing at San Francisco, as to China's ability to pay indemnities, This may be merely a coincidence, but the impression is that he has been oflicially informed that he has been doing too much talking (or diplomat. 0. M. Schwab, President of the "Billion dollar Trust." otherwise known as the United States tUoel Company, recently organized by J. Pierpont Morgan, drew one of the largest audiences that have yet attended a hearing before the In dustrial Commission, just as he is said to draw the largest salary ever paid any wan. From Mr. Schwab's point of view, his trust is about the best thins that ever happened. It will not reduce wages and it will not increase prices, although he did acknowledge that it would greatly reduce the number of employes He took evasion to whack the labor organizations, but, of course that to be expected from the man who drove those' organizations out of the Carnegie works. Hon. C. D. Randall, of Coldwater Mich., a retired banker who is sec retary and treasurer of the board of control for the Michigan state pub lic echoil, is visiting Washington I nthe course uf a conversation lie said: "Ex-Governour Pingree has gone to South Africa. It is auppo eed his mission there is to establish a sale for the shoes manufactured in his shops. Michigan does not miss him, for meu are soon forgot ten when they go out of office. He undoubtedly had some good ideas and likewise some bad ones. In the last two years there has devel oped in southern Michigan, a new industry, the making of Portland cement One of the chief ingredi ents is marl, which is found in the Bwamp lands in the vicinity of coldwater. Marl is pure white in color, made by decomposed shells, and borings have shown that it exists in quantities to supply all demands for hundreds of years The cement is made by mixing the marl with clay and baking it hard, after which it is ground to powder by powerful pressure." One of the differences between England and the U. B. was strongly accentuated by Mr It. M. Deeley, a mechanical engineer connected with the Midland Railway of England, who is making a tour of this coun try in search of improved railway ideas, in a conversation concerning the Wall streot crash, caused by the contest of two millionaire syn dicates for control of the Northern Pacific Railroad, when he said: "A great railroad war like that which Las figured in Wall street oper ations within a few dr.ys would 1 improbable in England, for the reason that a very large portion of the stock of our railroads is held by trustees and estates, and by other interests as permanent inventments and could not be secured in the open market except for prices that no one would bo willing to pay. Independence people were much disappointed to learn that the President had been obliged to can eel his date through Oregon, and thus deprive them of an opportun ity of seeing and hearing a "live president" for once in their lives, However, uovenor oeer secured a promise from Mr. McKinely that he would visit Oregon before his term was out. That's good, a Independence has a few people who send off to the mail" order houses for things occasionally; also a few business men who use stock biJl and and letter heads; also some who, disliking Postmaster Wheeler, send off to other towns for their postage stamps. We also have Bome who want the. editor to keep puffing up the town and county, without any assistance or support, moral or financial, from these same individuals. If there is anything especially good in the paper one week, it is passed over as a matter of course; but let a little squib derogatory to one of these censors appear in an obscure corner of the paper and the editor is called all kinds of names. But such is lifel King Edward VIPs salary has been placed at $2,284,000 a year, a large figure, but a monarch who makes no foolish speeches deserves to be well paid. Happily the time has panned When the largest American ships must go to Halifax to be docked. Uncle Sam has pulled away from hat era of small things, A fool EiswpU. Bankor Hirschberg, of Independ ence, has set an example to money ed men who expect to profit by the development of the dairy industry which is well worthy of emulation. Although it has been already dem onstrated that the manufacture of butter and cheese is destined to be come of vast importance to the state, the business hat reached the point where progress is barred by the lack of ready money with which to stock pastures with good milch cattle. When the average farmer balances accounts for the year he finds the margin of profit so nar row that he has little capital to Id vest in cows, and as a result he re luctantly turns away from btanch ins out into a field he feels sure would vleld irood returns. Mr, Hirschberg has come to. hit relit) by offering to lend him money with which to purchase cows, exactly as the country banks furnish the money with which the wheatraisers harvest their crops. If, in addition to his cattle, the farmer sees fit to tquip himself with a separator, Mr, Hirschberg stands ready to ad vance him what is nectssary to buy one. In this way he hat already materially increased the patronag of the Independence creamery, given the dairy Industry in the vi ciuity a decided stimulus, and tak en no risks beyond those ordinary incident to his busluess. The ultimate success of dairy farming in Oregon depends upon the willingness of capitalists to as sist it, and Mr. Hirschberg is the first to undertake voluntarily to do so. The creameries already estah lished must rely on the farmers to suridy them with raw material and if the farmers are enabled no only to keep up their hords but to enlarge and improve them by the addition of strains of better blood not only will these creameries beep their churns in operation, but others will spring up to take care of tit surplus milk that will soon be furnished, and Oregon will be come famous as a prosperous dairy state. There is plenty of capital in Portland today seeking investimont and certainly it could be put to no better use than in building up business which will prove of im mediate benefit to the state and city. California furnishes an example which proves that Mr. Hirschberg has used good judgement in this latest business venture. Two years ago a large ice plant was built at Fresno, in the San Joaquin Valley, To utilize the considerable amount of cold-storage space available it was suggested that a creamery be established; but, as in the William- ette Valley, the farmers had few cows and no monoy to buy mure. The management, however, proceed ed to interest capital, and soon succeeded in securing what money the farmers needed to purchase herds. Farmers who would agree to care properly for their stock and furnish milk to the creameries were advanced money to buy cows on a basis of easy payments at a low rate of interest. Today, as a result 10,000 pounds of butter are turned out of the Fresno creamery daily and the plant promises to become the largest of its kind in the United States. A few months ago a carload of heifers, which are badly needed to day in Oregon, were shipped from Kosehurg to Fresno. These heifers should never have been allowed to leave the state, and if Mr. Hirsch berg's example is generally follow ed, there will be a demand hereafter for all the young stock the state can produce. What has been done in California can be accomplished in Oregon with far less energy, as the conditions for dairying are far more favorable here. It is to be hoped that the seed sown by the Inde pendence banker will bear fruit, and that it will soon be as much part of the business of the country banker to lend money to stock the pastures aB to furnish funds with which to harvest the crops. rOre- gonian. In March the British loss in South Africa was 456 men killed and wounded, 39 captured, 428 died from disease and 30G9 sent home as invalids. The cost of the guerrilla warfare is still at the rate of nearly 50,000 men a year. In the legislatures of three states bills have been introduced to regu- ate marriages. Their reference to the committee on ways and means would please matrimonial aspirants better than a an attempt to select partners by a legislative commis sion. 4 An Illinois woman recommends felt shoes for hens, to prevent them from scratching up flower beds.
