OREGON CITY, JULY 18. 1902. i Xbe sweatshop districts of the great cities are the breeding places of consump tion which kills one-tenth or more of riie human race. Congress his not dared to tackle the Philippine transport frauds, nor the ie- riant law-breaking of the beef trust and the great railroad companies, its part ners in crime and brigandage. The local paper of a Georgia village states: "The supper for the benefit of the new church lightning rod was a jajrand success. A dinner will be given tomorrow for the court house steps." show that the potency of the range de clined 61 per cent between 1895 and 1901 .leaving only 39 per cent of its stock producing capacity. That decline in the cheapest method of producing beef has sent the price on the hoof uo 30 pei" cent and threatens to cut off our export trade entirely. Why is it that five years ago binding twine retailed at h cent3 per pound, while today, with all the great improve ment in machinery that has cheapened the cost of production, the farmeisare skinned to the tune of ViYi cents per pound? The price of wagons has ad' vanced $14 : the price of barb wire has doubled, and all other machinery ad vanced in proportion. What does this mean? Does it not Bhow, conclusively, that hundreds of millions of dollars are being filched from the pockets of the farmers to swell the bank account of the manufacturer? Do you think this could be done without a protective tariff, and is not the republican party to blame for the protective tariff? . NEWS OF THE WEEK, i; Hanila policemen speak English, Vihinese, Spanish, Tagalog, Visayan, J'ompanga, Macabebe.Japanese, Russian iind Hindustanee with equal incorrect ness, and earn as much as $800 a year. Since it is accepted by arimnologists its a fact that many criminals are insane i;t would certainly be worth while to make a post mortem examination of the Kiotorious convict's brain after he has fiteen caught. A machine will be placed on the mar &et next yeai which will work a revolu tion in harvesting, With Bix horses ,nd two men it will harvest and sack 5 to 35 acres of wheat per day. The machine threshes the standing grain, not ven cutting off the heads. Juiis W. Gatus predicts that "the wtocks of the great railroad systems will ultimately prove so valuable that they will no longer be upon the market; they will be held by great estates and by men worth millions. The day is at hand when four or Ave great communities of viuterest will divide the roads of the (United States." Governor Taft has concluded negO' tliations for the purchase from the the v?atican of the friars' land in the Philip inines for $7,000,000. Let's see : Price to tfjpain, $20,000,000; cost of benevolent as eaimilation to date, according to Secre' 'tary Root, $170,000,000; price for friars liands, $5,000,000 ; total for four years' .occupation, $197,000,000 or at the rate of about $50,000,000 per year. The St. Louis Globe-Democrat proves that successive democratic state admin iatrations of Missouri have robbed the state of about elven million dollars. It is. forsooth, a little matter to Btumble over. During one session of the Penn aiylvania legislature, the Quay republi can gang robbed Philadelphia of fran xahises worth one hundred million dol lars. A Nehkaska paper, the Sutton JJegister, mentions a republican Swede farmer who has recently returned from ULelandof his birth, While absent his anrUtical faith received considerable of a jt. ile found MoConnick harvesters, af .tke class that sell for $125 here at his STebraska home, selling for$(2, less than lb!,over there. Wire nails, costing $4 i'a Nebraska cost $2.75 over there. The address of Henry Watterson, the distinguished editor of the Louisville Courier-Journal, on Abraham Lincoln, delivered at the Chautauqua Auditorium on Saturday, was a masterly presenta tion of the character and career of the martyred president. It sparkled with the eloquence and bold, striking figures of speech for which the scholarly Ken tuckian is tamous. That such a glowing tribute should be paid by a journalist who, in his young manhood, was in ac tive sympathy with the states in rebel lion, to the one man, himself a South erner, on whose shoulders rested the burden of the conflict in defense of the nation's life, is evidence both of the loy alty and broadness of vision of the lead in minds of the Southland. Mr. Wat terson insisted that the gaunt, homely hero, for he was not alone this, but far more, who was the subject of his theme, accomplished his great task under di vine inspiration. Let us accept that dictum. If Abraham Lincoln was the divine Instrument specia'ly selected to amalgamate this great republic of the western hemisphere, there is assuredly no thought more conducive to patriot ism and love of the vaBt human multi tude scattered over the length and breadth of the galaxy of states. Lin coln's fame, like Washington's, will never lose its lustre as long as history endures. REALTY TRANSFERS. Furnished Every Week by Clacka mas Abstract & Trust Co.
