0C1.0C0 REVIEW. r.z-tilr.-. SATURDAY, JANUARY 11, 1800. THE WOOL TUEI REYES. Cut of There is no denying the fact that the proposition of the democratic party two years ago to put wool M the free list, cut a large figure in , lain toe State and presidential dec tions in Oregon, Especially was . this so in Crook county. Sheep raising being our chief industry, it could not be expected that the ; people would support a measure that was claimed was a direct - thrust at their business interests and one that would ruin the chief iudustry of the country. Old dew acrata who had never before voted Tor a republican went to the polls and voted rorJIeriaann at the June . election and likewise supported , Harrison in, the fall, believing '4hey were voting in their own in ''terests. Nor could they be greatly censured for so doing, for a man's individual interests are often par . amount ' to political principles. Despite the arguments of the dem ocratic press, that the turitl'on wool was pot a direct benefit to the pro ducer, that it only created an un natural stimulous to the uiaiket, which must eventually give way j to the law of supply and demand,' and was a trumped-up argument by , the so-called friends of the laboring people, many of those engaged in sheep raising heeded the cry of the , republicans that "a reduction of , the tariff on wool would ruin the sheep business," and voted for re , publicans. In each of the cam r paigns the republicans predicted ptter ruin to the business if the democratic party succeeded, and promised peosperity and high priceB for wool if republican con gressmen and president were lected. How true their philoso phy, and how well their promises have been kept, the wool growers who marketed their last year's clip can best tell. , By a lesson in ex perience they have learned that protection alone does not make a market for any commodity, and they are beginning to set some of the wool out of their eyes. But to ! refresh in their minds what pro taction did for them last year and to giva them an idea what even protection journals think there is "'in store for them in the wool mar ket next year, we clip from the New Year's edition of the Ongo- The total rocelpts of wool during the year have been in round num 'beraa follows; Eastern Oregon J an d .Washington, 18,000,000 ' pounds; Valley, Oregon, 1,000,000 'pounds; Urapqua, 500,000. The market opened for Eastern Oregon wool' at from 12 to 15c per pound, according to shriukagu. Valley wool running at from 17 to 1:'l!9,and Vmpqua's 19 to 20c, and ' took an advance of from 2 to So in the middle of the season, which " 'has been very prosperous for the 1 wool growers, AU wools have been 'readily; bought by speculators and J! buyers who expected an advance l,'fn' the Eastern market. In this ,they have been greatly disappointed, the market declined from 2 to 3.; ' per pound,- caused partly by tl.e faituer of a large com mission house "''ill Boston, and partly by the sus pension of one of the largest woolen 'ttjills in the country. 1 At the London sales the market 1 advanced 10 per cent, equivalent ' to 3o per pound, but, however, it had no effect upon our domestic market. It is rather early to an ticipate what the coming season will show, and in the opinion of ' pome dealers, growers should not anticipate what they have realized (luring the postseason. VESCBCTEX WATER QCEHTIOS. This week a petition was pre sented to the county court asking that the Deschutes river be de clared a public highway for float ing logs, and asking that the Des chutes Lumber Company be grant ed a louse of said river for a : term of years. At first glance it would seem that such an action would be pre posterous, as it would give' a cor poration the exclusive right of the stream, or rather a monopoly of it, for the purpose of floating logs, and hence would be an infringement upon the rights of the people living along said btreaui ; but a careful study of the question reveals a dif ferent feature in the case. The Deschutes river in its pres ent condition is not navigatde for logs improvements are necessary, wuar-uinuuiit or money it won'd re quire to put the river in condition that it may be used for this pur pose, is variously estimated ; some place it at S5UU while others say it will require 410,000. At all everts it will require more than any one individual owning a quar ter section of timber land can af foid to expend, and moie than any person will lay out as a privita en terprise, hence tne improvement must be made by EOtne person or company who will have a show to get their money back in the way of tolls.) At the present time there is no ni;i ket for ti mber on the Deschutes, but when the O. P. railroad iscoiu- Lpleted there will be milling indus tries spring up at its crossing of the river. But with the river in its present state, owing to natural obstructions. an owner of timber can not get it to market, whereas if it were opened he could float his logs to the prospective mills oy paying a toll to Le fixed by the county court. So the necessity of opening the river is evident. The principal ob jection to grant ing the Deschutes Lu inter Com pany the lease seeius to eminate from the O, P. Co. and persons as sociated with it, who it may be, want the franchise themselves. If this is their otject, their objections should have little weight. Home institutions should have the pref erence, and ought to have the lease if anybody. PROTECTISQ .ASERICAS LABOR. A significant and detestable eight was that witnessed Tuesday in the mining district of Pennsylvania, where laborers are severely "pro tected" by the iufamous war tariff, when a gang of one hundred and six Pinkerton. bullies arrive to over awe starving miners, who are on a "strike" to try to obtain the means of subsistence. The Pinkerton police an abctn inable thing in an alleged ?e countryare said to be employed for the purpose of protecting Im ported Hungarian and Italian . la borers, who are to take the place of American workmen, and who brinf their "pauper-labor" prices with them. , 'i .

It does, in every kind of business. and especially in compounding and ' preparing medicines. This is il lustrated in the great superiority of Hood's Sarsaparilla over other preparations, as shown by the re maikahle cures it has accomplished. The head of the firm of C. I. Hood & Co. is a thoroughly com petent and experienced pharmacist, having devoted his whole life to the study -and actual prepaiation of medicines. He is also a mem ber of the Massachusetts and Amer ican Pharmaceutical Associations, aud continues actively devoted to supervising the preparation of and managing the business connected with. Hood's Sarsaparilla. Hence the superiority and pecu liar merit of Hood's Sarsaparilla is built upon the most substantial foundation. In its preparation there is represented all the knowl edge which modern research in medical science has developed, combined with long experience. brain work, and experiment. It is only necessary to give this medi cine a fair trial to realize its great n-vfive vf lue. faa?nrtajkM of purifying the blood esa aot be overestimated, lor vitiivut jure Uuod you cannot enjoy good heailh. , At this season near! every hl rds a food medicine to purify, viuiize, an4 elf cU too biood, aod we t:-k you to t-y Hi Ti DoMlliar SursarariUa.

We are DP TO THE The railway construction of the United States in 18&9 amounted to 5000 miles, enough to reach from the Mississippi liver to the Pacific coast aud back again, yet the aver age length of new lines was less than twenty miles. The best indi cation of the healthfulnuss of this growth is seen in this fact. The work done was chiefly in providing feeders for the main lines and push ing extensions forward in response to the demands, of trade. The South, owing to attempts now be ing made to develop her mineral and other natural resources, has had a large share of the new roads. Three thousand of the 5000 miles reported as the compliment of the year were laid in the country south of Lincinnatti and east of the Mis sissippi. leaving to the Pacific coast and the mighty Northwest the bal ance.
