The English are complaining because the Germans are driving thera out of the carrying trade in the Mediterranean. They should not mind that. They drove Amer ican vessels off the ocean ; why should they not be driven ? There were 314 business fail ures in the United Slates the first week in September, 1893, and 321 the week previous, against 154 for the corresponding period last year Who says Cleveland's administra tion has not brought wreck and ruin? The dentist who recently per formed an operation on President Cleveland was a shrewd advertiser Ten thousand dollars probably could not have obtained for him the advertising which the newspa perscave him for nothing. The "code" does not prohibit practi tioners from "working" the press The cotton mills at Shanghai - are turning out an ever-increasing quantity of goods, which are read ily purchased and daily increasing m popularity in Unina. xne ini- nese take kindly to factory labor and work for a few cents daily When we have free trade they will soon be able to export cotton goods to the United States. Portland cement is being nan ufactured in China. The cement is guaranteed to stand a tensile strain of .400 pounds per square inch after having been immersed in water for seven days. The ex isting works are to be increased, a point that should be noted by the American manufacturers who are now seeking protection. Ameri can wages may yet have to come down . to the level of Chinese wages. We have drawn attention to the fact that there was a loss of busi ness of $500,000,000 during July as compared with July, 1892, but the returns of bank clearings made to Bradstreet'a for August show the enormous loss of $1,179,000,000 in the country's trade as compared with August, 1892. More than a billion dollars loss of business to the country in a single month. Such is the effect of proposed free trade. American Economist. The free trade party has begun its active campaign in Ohio by sending out workers from New York.. But they are evidently afraid to come out openly on their free-trade platform, and are, so we are informed, making use of a third party through which to dis tribute their free-trade dogma. The good cause of temperance should not be defiled with a free trade tar brush. Let the fight be a fair and square one, honest and above board. This will be more satisfactory to both candidates. We do not wish to alarm the business men of the country about the situation of the repeal bill in the senate, but we feel it to be our duty to arouse them. It will not do to go to sleep under a delusive sense of security. The country spoke out to the house last month and its command was obeyed. The senate is less tractable, but there may be a point beyond which it cannot or dare not resist the pressure the country can put upon it. In our opinion it is high time the business men were astir again N.-Y. Times (Dem.) tmm mm m T . ' - . jdive spinning companies m Oldham, England, recently pub lished their balance sheets. Two of jthem made an aggregate profit of $4,2d5 during three months To obtain this result 117,000 spindles and preparatory machin ery, with a capital of $640,000, were employed. The other three mills lost $4,850 among them, em - 1 - - n r r i -m pioymg i.y,uuu spindles and a capital of $815,000. Thus for the nve mills, with a total capital of $1,500,000, there was a loss of $615 as the result of three month's business. This is the working of free-trade. A good suggestion comes from the . Springfield (Mass.) Morning Union to restore the American merchantile marine by the impo sition ot a ' tax ot ten per cent, upon all foreign goods that are imported in foreign bottoms. Also . to put American vessels on the same basis as English by cancel ing the remission of harbor dues, a privilege' that is now granted , them and which can - be revoked by giving a" year's notice. This should certainly encourage Amer ican shipbuilding, while at the Bame time affording a means ol revenue to to the government. WHEAT DEMAND ' AND SUPPLY. The Oregonian says that there may be light upon the probable future course of wheat prices in the fact that the slight rise in price has brought large reduction in exports. This rise has been brought about by reports and esti mates showing this year's crop to- be short and the condition ot nar- vests to be unsatisfactory. But foreign demand, which must uiti mately govern prices, seems to have no regard to conditions of ocal supply. The foreigner win buy American wheat, it lie can get it for a certain price; it not he ... t a- T,- Cn.. l Will Dliy inuiail, xuiupeau, uuuiu American or Australian. Exports from Atlantic ports, which were about 5,000,000 bush els per week a month ago, have fallen below 2,000,UUU. IMS is less than the weekly exports at this time last year, when the nrifle was much higher. The dif- L . lerence is due' to dinerent con ditions in the world's markets Wheat is cheap and abundant in all the countries which compete with the United States for the sup nlv of Europe. For that reason we canuot expect to sell to Eu rope at a high price. It is a very significant fact that, while the ex port of American wheat falls off, shipments from other countries to Europe increases. The movement of foreign wheat is unusually laree at present. In the last week reported shipments from European Australian and South American ports were 1,872,000 bushels, and 2,560,000 bushels the previous week. The Dornbusch estimate makes the amount of wheat ana flour en route for the United Kingdom and the continent about fnrfv nor cent larser than at the -j t same date last year. The truth seems to be that, the world's supdIv of wheat is this . . A. - l m year equal to and probably in ' ex cess of the demand. All trust worthv estimates' agree that the production of the year is not much short of the demand, and that there are larce reserves held over Irom last year. The shortage in the United States is more than off set by the increased yield of India and South America and by the enormous American surplus of 1892, marketed this spring. Moreover," conditions which pre vail in other exporting countries with which we must compete make the price of wheat very low there. It is certain that with abundance everywhere we cannot expect a higher price than our competitors are willing to take. What that is may be judged from the fact that the recent rise of price stopped exports from 1 this country and sent foreign buyers to other countries for supplies. Those farmers will probably be most wise who take advantage of the recent rise of price to hasten their wheat to merket. Those who pursued a contrary policy last fall sold for less money in the spring, though prices were kept from falling to the lowest level until midsummer by concealment of the magnitude of the surplus left over. The game cannot be played again, even by juggling with government reports. Buyers have learned to distrust those re ports, and will discount an in visible surplus in making- prices. There will probably be loss rather than gain in the long run by hold ing wheat over this year. One of the Alabama iron manu facturers was before the commit tee on ways and means in congress a few days ago and plead with the committee not to reduce the tariff on iron manufacturers. .He had voted the free trade ticket last fall but didn't mean free trade, only democracy ! It must be a little humiliating to democratic manu facturers and working men now to ask congress not to give them what they voted for. v Alabama and Tennessee begin to feel the result ot the election as their factory doors are closed and their furnace fires put out. Of the fifty iron mills and blast furnaces in these two states thirty-nine are closed down and more are expected to follow their example. Of the 40,000 men employed , by these works over 30,000 sfre out of employment. A large number of these are colored people, very poor in this world's goods, and who will suffer greatly this winter if these establishments - do "not . resume work. - To hear some democrats talk, one would infer that all man ufacturers were '' republicans,- and everyone wanted the tariff contin ued as a monopoly." .The above shows that the tariff protects the laborer as well " as. the manu facturer. ' .. ' In ihe :. South, at Atlanta -and Savannah, the movement of the cotton crop is being arranged for by the medium of clearing-house certificates j and certified checks. This is strange currency to use when the south is in full control of the financial and industrial con dition of the country : in short, when we have southern domina tion with prospects of a force-bill tariff. 'Has not the South got oyer its old love for a depreciated currency? " : - - FARM NOTES. A recent item about blackber ries in the Oregon City Enterprise brought out 6ome measurements that showed" 'how wonderfullj7 adapted are the soil and climate to their production. One man re ported a vine 22 feet in length with ten-foot lateral branches. Another measured a vine that had grown 22 feel and 2 inches this season. he prune growers of the Pa cific northwest must realize that there is but one way in which to compete successfully with. Cali fornia in prune growing, and that is by placing on the market a superior and more attractive ar: tide. If the prune growers of Oregon and Washington will take as much pains to secure fine re sults as are taken by the Cali fornia growers, fhey will surely produce an article which will sell for a higher price than the Cali fornia prunes.-r Rural Northwest. Puyallup (Wash.) Citizen: It is safe to say that Oregon and the Sound will lead the world on the quality of hops this season. There has been no drawbacks in these districts this season, and as the excellent old-time quality has been attained, California and their coast counterparts the Yakima hops are not in it by comparison. The Yakima samples show a per fect color this season but they are light, dry and feathery in com parison to the Sound hops, which are exceedingly gummy at the core. Not much attention is paid to the market at present, but is not much in advance of 17c. Many preparations for increased acreage are being made. The yield is falling short of expecta tion.' It may be conservatively estimated from present indications that the state will not go over 45,000 and will only reach that figure on account of the enormous The UticaNew York Press says: "For several days L. Emdin, of Syracuse, and E. Delos Mills, of Clinton, have been at the farm of Samuel Allen, near this village, working a hop picking machine This machine was originally in vented by Mr. Mills, of Clinton, and improved by Mr. Emdin.. Its workiuz has been satisfactory to the owners and has been witnessed by a large number of interested hop growers. The motive power is a one horse power safely engine, and last Saturday forty boxes ol hops were picked. Hie . owners claim that sixty boxes can be easily picked in one day with two men to operate the machine. The work done by this picker is per formed m a better '- manner than pickers are in the habit of picking hops. Messrs. Mills and Emdin are much elated with the manner in which their machine does its work, and the prospect of its be ing generally adopted by growers. The following, from London Commerce of August 30, shows why "satisfaction is possible" in England: Thoneh the end of the McKinky tariff may be far off, its doom is sealed. To that extent satisfaction is possible from antici pation of the ending of perhaps the most talked-of piece of legislation affecting com mercial interests that. ever came into force. President Cleveland has fought the battle of tana reform persistently and unmnch ingly, and he has never yet been guilty of turning his back on his professions of faith. He has been assailed for bis free trade tendencies in the choice methods known only to American partisans. The assaults have failed of affect. - The "mod thrown in the hope that some would stick has refused to adhere." Note that the En glish recognize his "free-trade tendencies." though, his partisan papers won't admit them. - " ManuTactubers in Belgium com plain of the McKmley tariff, trade paper there stating mat in consequence of the McKinley till in the United States about 190,000 weapons less were manufactured in Liege in the year 1892 than in the preceding year.

A majority of the democrats in con gress are very near to being in open revolt against Mr. Uleveiand, and un less that gentleman diapl :ys a more conciliatory disposition there may be a permanent split in the -democratic party in the near future. The straw that has almost - broken the back of the democratic animal is Mr. Clever land's opposition to the taking up of the "bill " for repeal of the federal election laws by the house, until the senate disposes of the silver repeal bilL It is said that Mr. Cleveland spoke in a roost dictatorial manner to Speaker Crisp because , of. his having consented that this bill should be,re ported'to the house without having first obtained permission, and that Mr. Crisp got nettled and ; told ' him that he was under the impression that the president was af the head , of the' ex ecutive, not the legislative ; branch of the government ' Well, he wants to be at the head of them all, and -he is openly accused by democrats with hav ing influenced democratic members of the house to stay ' away in' order to break a quorum, Whether he did or not it is certain that the democrats tried in vain to get a quorum for three days last week. Today is a holiday, on account of the centennial cele bration of the laying of corner stoue of the cxpitol building, and it re nr.ains to be seen whether there wili be a quorum of democrats in the house toinoirow. The republicans very aturally decline to assist ju making a quorum of the limine for any such purpose. The condition in the senate is prac tically unchanged. Senator Vorhees, althoug lie know that a majority of the senators 49 senators a:e claimed, and the claim is undisputed will yote tor his rejal bill if it c;sn be brought to a vote, is afraid to attempt to fence the fight, although he continues to threaten to do so. There is only one way to force the bill to a vote, and that is to keep the senate contiuually in session with a quorum 43 senators always on the floor, until the oppo sitiou becomes sutnciently worn out x consent to a vote; but Snator "Vor hees does not feel certain that he can do that for the very good reason that a number of senators who are willing to vote for repeal have said that they would not consider it their duty to re main continuously on the floor in or der to torce a vote, lnen, thee is another side to this question of en durance. Enough of the rei ealers uny become worn out to enable the silver men to vote down the bill or to amend it to suit themselves. It is no child s play either way you look at it; and, whatever may be the opinion of outsiders, every senator realizes the seriousness of the situation. The principal reason why Mr. Cleveland does not wish the house to start the acrimoncous debate that is certain to follow the taking up of the bill lor the repeal of the federal elec tion law is that he realises the neces sity cf having the active assistance of republican senators if the Vorhees bill is to be passed, and fears that assist ance may be lost through the abuse of republicans in the house. And there are good and sufficient reasons for his fear. Not that anything any demo crat could say would change the .vote ot any republican senator who upon principle favors the repeal bill, but that it might result in causing some of them to absent themselves at a critical period, which might result in the de feat of ihe bill. Take it all in all th'e democrats, split in half as they are on the silver question, occupy a very tioklish position. The southern sen ators are constantly hearing of popu list gains at their homes, and it begins to look as though the repeal of the purchasing clause of the silver law might accomplish one very desirable thing a break up of the solid south if the repeal itself can be accom plished. A Little Daughter Of a Church of England minister cured - of a distressing rash, by Ayer'g Sarsaparilla, Mr.RiCHAKD Birks, the well-known Druggist, 207 McGiH St., Montreal, P.

I know of many Wonderful Cures performed by Ayer's Sarsaparilla, one In particular being that of a little daughter of a Church of England minis ter.

Her father was in great distress about the case, and, at my recommendation, at last began to ad minister Ayer's Sarsaparilla, two bot tles ot which effected a complete core, much to her relief and her father's delight.

Senator Oullom's resolution to in vestigate the dogging of pensioners at their home by government detectives, for the purpose of obtaining admis sions to be used as evidem e to re duce their pensions or to entirely de prive them of them, which was offered several days ago, has aroused much in dignation in congress against the pen sion methods of the administration, some . of it among democrats.
