OUKUON CITY, NOV. 15, 1895.
TIM LOCAL MARKET.
There are two sides to the local
market question, and one is not all
right side nor the other all wrong.
Oregon City, for a town of its size,
is a good market. Hut it must be
admitted that it does not consume
all the products offered it. The
proximity of Portland with its
large capacity for handling country
products has tended to keep ship
pers from, entering the Oregon
City markets to buy. The pro
ducer thinks he cannot get as good
a price here for what he has to
offer as he can by carting it to
Portland. , In many cases this
may be true, but the difference is
not more than the cost of trans
portation. In many cases this is
not at all true. Such products as
are actually consumed here very
often bring a betterprice here than
in the Fortland market. Today
oats and hay bring more here than
in Portland. Next week it may be
butter or eggs or beef. While oats
bring one to three cents a bushel
more here than in Portland many
farmers draw their oats to the big
city "because Oregon City is no
market."
A correlative of the "no mar
ket" is the assertion that Oregon
City merchants charge more for
their goods than do those of Port
land. In this connection it may
be proper to give heed to the state
ment of a local merchant. "When
a farmer gets hold of any money"
says this experienced merchant,
"he goes to Portland to do his
trading. When he comes to Ore
gon City to .trade it is usually to
get three, six or twelve months
credit, without security or interest
Is it reasonable to suppose the
Oregon City merchants can sell
goods on such terms for the same
prices the Portland merchants
charge for cash? The fanner who
comes to Oregon City with the
cash, or its equivalent, to pay for
the merchandise he wants can buy
for as low prices as he can buy for
in Portland.''
This is a pliasa of the matter that
is worthy of serious attention. If
the merchants and farmers can
get together on the question it will
be much to the advantage of both
city and country.

The indications are that within
the next month tho populint party
organization in Indiana will dis
band. The men who have been car
rying on the agiation for four years
have about decided that there is no
future for tho party in that state
and that they might as well
abandon it. E. B. Cumroings, the
secretary of the state committee
has tendered his resigtition. The
officers and members of the same
state enmmittiee will, it is said,
follow the example set by the secre
tary. The men who have been
leading the party there say they
have information that the members
of the executive committee have de
cided to resign. The populist party
in Indiana received its first blow-
three weeks ago when tho Fanners'
Mutual Benefit Association of the
state cut loose from it. There is
is some talk of orgnniz'ng a labor
party which shall take up and

About the tiroe of the outbreak
of the war between China ami Japan
it was given out in all the republi
can organs that or state depart
ment had committed u great blunder,
and hail gratuitously made an
enemy of Japan. Some mouths later
when ex-Secretary of State John W.
Foster returned home, and said that
our state department bad handled
the matter with conspieious ability
and increased oi:r prestige in the
East, the republican growlers were
a good deal disgusted.' To ihis
testimony is now added that ol the
the Mikado himself, who is nn olllcial
letter to tho president expresses bis
appreciation of ''tlmse acts on the
part of jour excellency us well as
on tho part f your excellency's
officers, acting under your excel
lency's wise directions, which not
only teuJed to mitigate tho severe-
ties and hardships of war, and finally
to promote the successful issue of
the negotiations for peace, but served
to draw still closer the bonds of
friendship and good neighborhood
which happily unite our two
countries." Thus perishes another
slander upon democratic foreio-u
policy.

pitunusly over the cailousness of a

J. I). Sle.ivens as an apostle of

him ns a buzz-saw that "republican

vet it was no', so verv many moons

The b:j.irl of tmlc held its regular
monthly meeting Monday evening, with n bet
ter attendeuce than usual. The report of the
road committee on lite plan to build a good
wagon toml southward from the south end of
Mam street, on the route of the old terri
torial road, was expected to be presented,
but on account of the absence of County
Roadmaster Kinnaird the committee w as un
able to report anything definite. The com
mittee had been over the route with Mr.
Kinnaird nnd a number of levels had been
taken, but no further figures had been
made. Major Charmau spoke of the neces
sity for pushing the project in rrder that
trade should not be diverted from the city by
the ahence of a safe road on a reasonable
grade into town.
The secretary, for the special advertising
committee, reported that n new advertise
ment had been prepared for the Monthly
Oregonian and that the Portland General
Electric Company had agreed to reitam
changes iu its advertisement in ihe same paper
so thai the two would con.yleinent each
other rather than lead to the ippearance of
antagonism..
The bills of W. A. Huntley for fil and the
