Weak and prices are depressed,
but fo the casual observer ine
urvest.'V'product always seems in
lemand and capable of finding a
ready money exchange. The for
Jtunes made by hopgrowers in New
York state .are numberless, and
there was a time when a good hop
farm was worth more than a gold
mine. " While ' less . profits are
made imw still there i3 an oppor
tunity in that line not to be neg
lected. The Puyallup valley
hops iii .Washington are famous,
says the ...-Telegram, and have
brought wealth to many larmers,
and tho Willamette valley pro
duct averages well for the raisers.
Ia the past there has baen one
drawback to successful agriculture
in Oreeon. notwithstanding cli-
.,...
matic and soil conditions, are un
surpassed." -The crops have not
been sufficiently diversified. It
. r . , v . -
has usually been too much wheat,
Now . v there is a tendency
to branch' out in such ways as
raising Thops, fruit, or sugar beets,
It is therefore encouraging to learn
that farmers - are extending their
hop acreage and ; that throughout
the southern counties , new yards
will be numerous, t If immunity
from lic&i'and favorable weather
.are erranted them, the amount of
money!, perming into Oregon in re
turn for the harvest will be large
and gladly welcomed.
A singular question in connec
tion with, this subject is contained
in the fact that ; no hop-raising
worth mentioning, has as yet been
done in" Benton county. , There
ar thousand of acres of the best
lands'or that crop, within view of
Oorvaliis. "Much of it is lying idle
nd wasjiug its fertility in the nox
ions eatave-verdure. This is i
pure waste of the country's natura
richness; f a , stultification of the
possibilities to which these broad
acres-rare -capable; and a robbery
to the' industrial interests of the
maximum of their wealth produc
ing power. Our1 next door neigh
bor, Polk county, is ; working out
of the "straight wheat-raising" rut
and is greatly bettering her condi
I tion ,by.. raisins hops. Not that
the wheat lands have been cur
tailed 'fed'niuchj ,but that the lands
best adapted, for. hops have been
reclaimed from idleness, have -in
vited additional industries , of a line
vastlymore; prontable; nave aug
men ted population in greater ratio
than vthe 'old wheat farm system
ever . did; s, and. briugs into the
country' ten dollars of clear money
where the wheat industry barely
brought, one. . , .
Fruit jaising is also . developing
throughout! the country, here as
elsewhere, which is ah encourag
ing f&bt That industry cannot be
too heartily . commended nor too
thoroughly sustained. But there
are Jands and lands. by the sec
tion ..and.,, the ;i thousand that are
created in the "eternal fitness" for
fruit'' and ' for. nothing else. Let
their culture in fruit be pressed to
the highest perfection. There are
also thousands of acres of lands ex
pressly, fitted for hops, aud in this
industry will they excel. It is the
return of money to' the square foot
"of anjJand that sizes up its value.
That product which puts the most
clear money, .into .the; husband-
man?s pocket on a given' area of
soil,T clearly is - the ' agency he
' should jemploy. . The proposition
is 6elf:evidenti Give the hops a
chance in Benton as well as the
fruit. ' ' ' '
Ir as - the general tone of the
Oregon'press that Easter was in
' this' instance .a failure. , ; The
weather 'was dark and stormy and
that.Vgave , the new "togs" no
chance, hence Easter was a dreary
circumstance, : Never mind the
sentiments of the early ages con
cerning this morn of rejoicing and
hallelujahs. ;': It is the display of

AMERICA FOR AMERICANS.'
The Japs that work on the rail
road section , at Drain, who have
taken the place of white labor all
along the road, are having some
trouble with indignant citizens of
that, place. Ualsey News.
The next legislature should pass
a law forbidding any public corpor
ation employing any but natural
ized American citizens to perform
any services connected with its
existence and performance of its
functions. American government
and American law creates and
maintains its existence. The
American people patronize, sup
port and enrich these corporations
and they should not bo allowed to
displace free American labor, sup
porting American institutions and
American families, in the Ameri
can style of living, to give employ
ment to Japanese,Chinese or any
other class that are not a compo
nent element of citizenship.
Thsre should be a state and Uni-1
ted States law forbidding employ
ment by a public corporation or
n any public work or public build
ng any other than naturalized
American citizens. There would
be less train wrecking attempted
on the Southren Pacific if that law
were enforced.
We pretend to protect American
abor, but allow great transconti
nental transportation corporations
to employ thousands of foreigners
who never can become citizens to
take the bread out of their mouths.
These corporations were enrich
ed by great grants of public lands,
favored by exemptions from taxa
tion, favored with legislation, and
then they turn around and repay
the voters by systematically dis
criminating against American la
borers, and displacing them with
coolies by the thousand, who do
not support homes, schools or
chuches, and not one out of five
hundred ever stays in this coun
try.
The above from the Salem Jour
nal is soundly stated, but it does
not put it strong enough. For the
past 30 years and more tins coun
try has been maintaining a high
protective" tariff, t he only possi
ble excuse for which was
that it was calculated to
provide and preserve a high
scale of prices for wage earners,
That tariff kept up the prices of
all merchandise and supplies en
tering into the homes of wage
earners as well as other classes,
and it has amounted to a no small
burden that the masses have will
iugly borne in a good cause. The
plan was all right enough had it
been philosophically carried out
But that has not been done. While
the country was paying these high
"protective" prices these tariff
"taxes" levied to secure high wa
ges on a level with them, 'the ut
most "free trade" principles have
been in operation to transfer the
"pauper labor'? of the old world to
American shores
This transverse policy has been
going on all these years until there
is little difference between the
condition of labor in America and
that of the ancient hemisphere,
and none in favor of the American
laborer, which is not assured by
natural conditions. Our protec
tive poliey was a sound one, but it
was protection in theory, and not
in practice. It steered away from
Charybdi3 and is in the breakers
o Scilla. It set up a high plane
of citizenship and invited the mass
es of : the 'world to come
and become . a part of it.
It put out no discriminating bar-
lers. ihe man ot Jotty spirit and
the crawling serf all came upon
the same footins. So when
swarms of abject laborers, with no
conception of or aspirations to
reach the level which our institu
tions contemplated, came and
brought their abject instincts with
them, but one result could be ob
tained. That! was the dragging
down of the whole labor fabric, to
the lower level. That is about the
condition of affairs to-day." There
ought to be a change. The "pro
tective" policy is very , lopsided.
It burdens the masses to provide
'high wages" for hordes of hu
mans who have no conception of
the term and is nominally "castr
ing pearls before swine," to. the
nation's ruin. Keep the swarms
of serfdom out of the country
from now on and there will be no
laws, needed for the protection of
American labor.
The Oregonian has been sued
for: libel . -with ! damages fixed at
$100,000. As the Gazette , was
some time since sued for Jibel for
exposing an itinerant humbug
fakir; and as it necessarily made
us some trouble and expense not
withstanding the suit was a flat
failure to the i. h. f. aforesaid, we
may be expected to be somewhat
guarded in expressing our opinion
on the Oregonian case. - ,
Children Cry for Prtcfeer Castprfei
There has been"another dastard
ly attempt to wreck: the .overland
trainpn the Southern: Pacific road
and many 'people hold that the
railroad company and its employes
are largely - responsible ; for this
state of affairs. It has often been
remarked by people who are ac
customed to travelling that the
manner in which tramps stealing
rides are treated is not , a method
that insures safely to the coin
pany's property or to the passen
geis over its lines. Train men are
doubtless greatly annoyed by these
tramps, but they do not reason in
telligently as to the probable re
sults of their actions in handling
these fellows. They will find some
helpless boy stealing a ride, and
kick him off and often beat him
unmercifully. Such transactions
have been witnessed by passengers
many times. It is no surprise to
those passengers to hear soon after
of an attempt being made to wreck
the train. The wreckers do not
realize the fearful results likely to
come irom their actions, nor ao
they care to. Their only desire is
to seek revenge with those who
have thus treated them and they
will go to desperate measures to
obtain that revenge. They are
seeking revenge on the railroad
company, and not on the passen
gers, but the passengers often suf
fer death or severe injury, and the
railroad company and its employes
are responsible. Register.
"I shot her because she wouldn't
marry me 1" These were the dy
ing words of Ross Smith who had
killed Effie Clark, and then turned
the deadly pistol upon himself.
Both were students in Chicago
colleges and residents proper of
this coast, she of Spokane and he
of Portland. She had been his af
fianced, but at the instance of her
father had discarded him. ' A let
ter vritten to his mother and
found on his person at the inquest
was a pathetic recital and ' showed
his mind to be in an unbearable
strain. lie was undoubtedly driv
en to madness.
The democrats have had a good
time scoring ex-Secretary Foster,
recently, on alleged extravagance
in connection-with the Bering sea
conference. Gresham and Car
lisle, according to the democratic
version, were stripping the facts
down to their naked hideousness,
and were revealing some startling
things. It turns out that the
stories had no official basis what
ever, but were the fabrication of
some Munchausen penny-a-liner,
who , undoubtedly laughed in his
sleeve while the democratic gladia
tors were annihilating the man of
straw which he had set up.
There is a great deal in the fol
lowing little squib propounded in
theS. F. Examiner: "If the Ha
waiian islands are necessary to t he
security of so powerful a country
as the United States what islands
will be necessary to the security
of so feebl-e an outpost as Hawaii?"
In other words if the United States
really sees security in reaching out
to get the next - place beyond her
borders, how long will : it take her
to extend her accessions around
the globe? ..... .
There is a fortune for some one
who will find a way for keeping
cabbage in Oregon during the
winter. There is some peculiarity
about the Oregon cabbage1 that it
begins to rot just about tlie time
it begins to be valuable, and con
sequently the markets are filled
with California cabbage when the
price would pay for raising it -Farmer.

The death of Col.; Shepard in
New York from the administration
of anaesthetics emphasize the fact
that these are not always harmless.
For surgical operations they have
marked a wonderful improvement
in the so-called science of. medi
cine; but while they, alleviated
pain when a person ' is undej: the
surgeon's knife, they are .some
times dangerous to persons of cer
tain' physical conditions.; ; -

that refusal to move freight on in
terstate lines from a boycotted
road makes those who refuse
guilty of criminal conspiracy
against the laws of the country.
That is, since corporations are
held to liability, and since corpora

those agents must be held to
liability too. The duties of the

The Oregon agricultural college
asked for a small appropriation for
building and equiping a dairy build
ing, but the legislature refused to
grant it. The Washington legisla
ture did make an appropriation of
$3,000 for a dairy plant, but the
governor vetoed the bill. The narrow-minded
policy of the two
states towards education in dairy
lines is exasperating to any per
son who knows what is being done
by other states and nations in this
line. Rural Northwest.

SCRATCHED 28 YEARS
' V '
A Scaly, Itching, Skin Disease with
Endless Suffering; Cured by
Cutlcura Remedies..
If I had known of the Cuticuba Eembuies
twenty-eight years ago, it would have saved me
$200.00 aud an immense amount of suffering. My
disease (psoriasis) commenced on my head In a
pot not larger than a cent. It spread rapidly alt
over my body, and got under
my nails. The scales would
drop off of me all the time,
and my suffering was endless,
and without relief. One thou,
sand dollars would not tempt
me to have this disease over
again. I m a poor man, but
feel rich to be relieved of what
some of the doctors said was
leprosy, some ringworm, pso
riasis, etc. I cannot praise
the Cuticuba Remedies too
much. They have made my
skin as clear and free from scales as a baby's. All
I used of them was $! worth. If yon bad been
here and eaid yon would have cured me for $200.00,
you would have had the money. I looked like the
picture (No. 2, page 47) in your book, "How to
Cure Skin Diseases," but now I am as clear bs
any person ever was. .Through force of habit I
rub ray hands over my arms and legs to scratch
once in a while, bnt to no purpose. I am all well
I scratched twenty-eight years, and it got to be a
kind of second nature to me. I thank yon a thou .
sand times.
