Eugene City Guard. 8UDKDAY AUGUST 22, 1891. Jc 10 " The wheat market in all parts of the world is in a very excited con dition at present. No doubt now cxirste but that there will be an en ormous deficit in Europe, which muHt be almoBt wholly supplied by the United States. It is not probable, however, that the. full amount of the apparent nli('rtui?e will be reouired. The en hanced price will cause the use of cheaper food subHUtuteH,anl among the jjooreY cIuhhcs deprivations to the starvation limit. Again, the seller will clean out his granaries of the precious berry, retaining only what is absolutely necessary for seed, and thus help to meet the increased demands. The wheat growers have exjier ienccd low and unprofitable prices for a series of years. This is prob ably a turning joint in their for tunes. It will naturally take time replenish grain stocks to the oint that a surplus will exist. Until that period the farmer will secure adequate returns for his labor. Portland Teleeram: It will le an imoortant victory for the peot nf the state if the commission rates can be made to stand; not so much because of the reduction made as to determine the fact and establish the principle that tl iieonle. through their legally con stituted agents and servants, have jxjwer to reasonably check and con trol railroad corjKirationB. Hereto fore the railroads have been all powerful in matters of legislation; . it will be encourneinc and note worthy to learn that the people rule. It will show, too, thai tno commission is not altogether a worthless body, existing only for show and salary; but that it can earn its salary and do a little ser vice to the public. Tho Salvation Army is planting its banner in South Africa and General Booth is daily exacted to arrive witli a Bfjuiul of salvation fighters to muke conquest of tho bo nighted in that section of the globe. It is also stated that they will colo nize in Swaziland and provido for tlwir iiiiLteriiil in conjunction with their eternal welfare. All kinds of movements that aim at good, even thnuah tliev niuv seem fooliwh to very many, are often productive of benign results, and who knows out tho Salvationists, with their ardor and eclat, may accomplish great tilings in Africa? Tho latest projiosition of tho treasury looters is to pension clerks who have completed a certain term of ollifo. It is not urged that tho payment of these employes is less or their work moro arduous than tho employment of ordinary mor tals wlio may not Iiojkj for ten sions, but tho theory upon which tho looters proceed is probably that tho average government clerk has so much time to spare that ho is led to spend his money, without mak ing duo provision for old age. Willamette street is in a shameful condition. The city council should tuko the first opjiortunity to scrape oil' the iH'stiferous stun", that, it was claimed, would cement the gravel. Tho slightest ruin works it into the worst kind of sticky mud, that ad heres to the wagons, side and cross walks, pedestrians and any tiling tlse it comes in contact with. In places it even lifts the gravel out when caught by wagon wheels. Chehulis Nugget: Tho Oregon ian refers to tho "insane popular demand for free coinage." Tho idea tho Oregonian means to convey seems to lie that tho jieople who dilVcr with it on tho silver question are insane. The wixnls are full of the lunatics, however, und the lroudsidcs of fact and fancy hurled at them so frequently by the Ore gonian seem to havo but Httlo effect in diminishing their iuiidIhts. Mr. McKinley says tho farmers of Ohio do not wunt to "sell a full bushel of wheat for a short dollar." Nor do they want to puy a full ilollur for a short dollar's worth. Nor to sell a Huml of wool for short McKinley prices. Tlrt' are several sides to most questions, as Mr. McKinley may realize in November, Lik-rtfee always como high and frequently cause bloodshed. An Astoria woman stubbed a man who playfully kissed her eleven year old daughter. In a few years that mother may lie fishing for just such suckers, and if ho will only bite hard enough neither she nor the daughter will resent a similar theft from an eligible party. Mrs. Lease, the sensational ftlli ance orator, lutely addressed a meeting of farmers In Kansas. In closing her swh, and as a final admonition, it is rcorted, the suld: "Kaise less wheat and corn and more hell." Mrs. Lease evidently believes in a diversification of crops, but Kansas farmers will have a ijml time mortgaging the product r!i'twimend. 'BejiKWu? lriW," says an cx W That gw t.yice but it h auulejuany V w4, There are ia s dozeni' qi' dro'(W ji ikl, to cotw, what a public 'ftf'fM nan eri'V uiOiout "giving im alue Wit. Juit iir the reason public spirited JiityiJ-iWitt a' dia advantage. " What will be tho condition of Willamette street when the winter rni'na crimp 9 At nresent one day of light rains makes it muddy and worse than it was belore tno prop erty owners were assessed a large sum to pay for alleged improve ments. Remonstrance was made when thn mini was hauled on tho street, but the authorities turned a deaf car. The least that they should do now would bo to cart tno sucKy objectionable stuli oil the street. The idea that good crops and prices will help the republican and injure the democratic party is untenable. They will help the txnrtu Hint ill ninrAf riffllt. With J.Ul Ml Hll... " ...... . .q the farmer's increased wealth comes more leisure for the study of eco nnmin nunstions: and when he goes to buy with cash in his hands he is more careful to examine careiuny into prices, and inquire upon what they are based, than n ne nuys on credit. It is debt that has kept the American farmer in ignorant slav ery to tho protectionists. With more prosperity and greater free dom will come new and broader ideas, more indeendonce, greater intelligence. Portland Telegram. Tho Willamette Valley Hop Growers' Association met at Salem Saturday and the general condi tion of the prospective crop was tnllrnri over. Picking will begin in two weeks and the growers will pay 00 cents lor a vox oi nine ousneis. Lice are decreasing, a two-thirds crop is now talked of. Hops will be of good quality but not over an average crop in yield. Chauncey M. Dejicw, whose brain is associated with other practical brains in robbing tho producers, said lately: "Acres do not govern tho country, but brains." There are acres of brains in the hayfieldB of this nation that will eventually govern the country. These acres are rapidly brightening up with "boss" ideas and they are too many for tho Wall street garden patch. The lute census shows that in many of our cities the foreign born impulution is greater than tho na tive born. Detroit, for instance, has 100,000 foreign born citizens to 75,000 native born. I ho agitation that grew out of the lute New Or leans lynching suggested the ques tion from many lips, "What shall we do with our foreigners?" while, if tho influx of foreigners continues as it has done in tho past, the really imimrtnnt question will be: What are tho foreigners going to do with us? Boston Herald: If our high tariff frionds continue in this state over tho full in tho price of sugar from tho removal of tho duties U)on that article, isn't there danger that they will implant a desire in tho minds of the public to try this ex)erimcnt of reduction Ukii some other articles? We really fail to see row there is any possible escape from this logic. Thus a broad avenue may be oMued to that fear ful free trade which beforo has not been mentioned without a shudder ing apprehension. Dealers in agricultural imple ments say this has been a busy season for them, and moro cutting implements, realtors, heutiers, mow ers, binders, etc., have been sold than in any previous year for a long time. In fact, all who have had the best kinds of machinery have sold all they have hhd. Self binders are still in favor in the Willamette valley, but headers are largely used in Eastern Oregon and Washington. One of the beauties of tho Mc Kinley bill is that it makes "for eign pauper" labor so much iworer mat li is omigea to come 10 Amer ica in order to get along at all. A Bad Fall.
