JUDGE NELSON'S
DECISION.
Speaking of patent medicines, the
Judge says: "1 wish to deal fairly ana
honorably with all, and when I find an
article that will do what' it is recom
mended to do, I am not ashamed to say'
eo. I am acquainted with Dr. Vander
pool (having been treated by him for
cancer), and have used his Diood medi
cine, known as the S. B. Headache and
Liver Cure, and while I am 75 years old,
and have used many pills and other
remedies for the blood, liver and kid
neys, I must say that for a kidney tonic
in Brights disease, and as an alterative
for the blood, or to correct the action of
ttae stomach and bowels, it is a very su
perior remedy, and beats anything I
ever tried. J. B. Nelson,

Don't It?
Boston, Oct. 20. The Utah and Mon
tana joint rate-sheet, the members of
which are the S. P. R., the N. P. R., U.
P. R., the Great Northern, and th Rio
Grande Western has been disrupted by
the IT. P. R. giving notice that its con
nection with the sheet terminated yes
terday and, as the U. P. R. belongs to
the trans-Missouri association, this
practically destroys the agreement, as
the IT. P. R. is the keystone in the
present alliance. The immediate cause
of the withdrawal of the Union is the
dissatisfaction of the Rio Grande in not
receiving any Montana business from
the Union Pacific, this line having a
line of its own in the territory covered
by the Rio Grande Western, bat the
disruption is not intended to work in
jury to other roads in the agreement,
the policy of the Union Pacific being to
evolve two sheets out of the debris of
the old, one from Montana common
points, and the other from Utah, the
Union Pacific, Great Northern and
Northern Pacific to be in the first sheet,
and the Southern Pacific, Rio Grande
Western-and Union Pacific to be in the
second. The primary object of this new
arrangement is to divorce the Montana
rates from the Utah interests. While
the desire of the Union Pacific to estab
lish these sheets seems likely to be re
alized, should the other roads finally re
fuse to enter the compact, the Union
racmc announces that it will make a
rate-sheet for itself. Railroad men are
all very reticent about expressing an
opinion, though it is generally believed
the disruption of the Utah and Montana
sheet will result in a further demorali
zation of passenger rates.
The' reports as made up from official
figures show that, except in Great Brit
ain andItaly, the crop prospects in
Europe average nearly 15 per cent better
than last year, ftaly's wheat crop is 12
per cent below last year's, and Great
Britain is over 17 per cent below the
normal yield. The condition of crop af
fairs in Great Britain 5s the worst ever
experienced. Statistics tend to show
that the following will be required in
addition to the local ontput of the sev
eral countries :
Bushels.
France 33,000,000
Germany .12,375,000
Austria 40,000,000
Greece 4,500,000

The countries which will havte wheat

surplus of breadBtuffs, estimates of which
has not as yet been corrected and pub-

been up to its larger average production
of cereals.
The feed and millstuff market is quiet,
oats are firm at quotation. Barley is
not very active in the market, at last
weeks prices.
The hay market is lifeless, choice
timothy hay was sold the other day at
$15.00 per ton, bailed.
The wool stock in store is limited to
about 80 bales. The market is entirely
off. The only quotation heard of was
12 cents for common and 16- cents for
extra light. .
This market is bare of hops. Growers
quotations range from 19 to 21 cents per
pound. Large holders claim that better
figures will be realized in the near
future. .
Stock horses and cattle are without a
market, at this city. There is no change
in quotation in beef cattle and mutton
sheep.

S tiuimary or Trade and Business for tne
Current Week.
Thursday, October 20th. Our market
report closes with a good showing of
trade . for our merchants during the
past week. Good prices have been re
alized for all classes of merchandise.
In staple groceries the quotations are
firm.
-The market in Portland has turned a
little dearer on meats and coffee. Sugar
is steady. Eggs have advanced 2c per
doz., and a firm tone exists in our own
market therefrom. Butter is firmer
since our last quotation. Eggs are
quoted at 27c in cash and 30c in trade,
Spring chickens are a little dearer and
in better demand. Old fowls have
been in better demand the past few
days ana ouc advance is ottered over
former quotations.
The fruit market is quite steady, ex
cepting in grapes. The several varieties
on the market have been very abund
ant and prices range fromylc to2c lb
Peaches are nearly done and sell read
ily at 75c85c per box. There is no
change in prices for other fruits.
The grain market has shown an in
crease of activity over last week. The
daily receipts average nearly 2,340 cen
tels from both sides of the river, for
storage and shipment. Offerings are
fair by sellers on 64c per bu. for best
grade of No. 1 ; second grade of No. 1
63c ; and 55c59c for Nos. 2 and 3.
Portland markets are a little firmer
today. The demand for shipment is
good, owing fo the large number of ves
sels in port, and the Portland buyers
have advanced prices in consequence to
$1.17$1.20 for Walla Walla. The
foreign markets are quite steady. Liv
erpool spot wheat is only In moderate
demand, and options are somewhat fe
verish. The following London advices of the
15th will be of interest to our readers.
Resorting to Business Injury in Indians
for Using American Tin
Columbus, Ind., Oct. 20. Last week
one day the Republican of this city,
published the statement of Brooks
Bros. Fourth street tinner, to the effect
that they are using American tin plate
in tne manufacture ot cans tor tne Uof
umbus market, and that they find it en
tirely satisfactory in quality, and that
it is as cheap as the imported article
Brooks Bros, did not make this state
ment with tne intention ot using it in a
political way ; they merely stated these
facts about American tin: and their
word as business men is unquestion
able, it is a fact, also, that tin cans
such as Brooks Bros, make, of this
American tin, are sold in the Columbus
market cheaper this year than - last,
The tariff, therefore, is not a tax on the
consumer of tin cans. These are facts
which deeply roile the democracy, since
they overturn, upon local and home
evidence, the democratic declaration
that tin plate is not . and can
not be made profitably in Amer
ica, ana tnat dv reason oi tne mc
Kinley law the consumer pays more for
his tinware now than before the passage
of that law. Ana so deeply pained are
the democrats bv the success of the tin
industry, and so fearful are they that
their tinplate stories will be robbed of
their intended effect, that they cannot
bear to have the facts made public. It
rouses their fear and their ire, and thev
stick at nothing, no matter how dishon
orable, to bolster up their failing cause,
It is reported today from a source en
tirely authoritative and trustworthy
that after publication of Brooks Bros
statement, a prominent democrat, high
in the local councils of his party, and
presumably acting by the wishes of his
party colleazues, tackled Brooks Bros
informing them that they would find it
against their interest to furnish such
facts for publication, and intimating
that they would be extremely likely to
lose democratic trade if they gave ou
facts about their business which might
be used as republican arguments. In
other words, this prominent democratic
leader gave them plainly to understand
that the great democracy would intimi
date them by instituting a boycot on
their business. The democracy must
indeed be in sore straits, when it de
scends to such pitiful methods as this.
The democratic press and epeakers have
falsified long and hard about American
tin plate; and in this nefarious transac
tion the democracy serves notice that
any one who ptesumes to say anything
calculated to refute those false state
ments, will be visited with the party
wrath in the form of business injury.

Chicago,. Oct. 20. Notwithstanding

Astoria "Examiner. These beautiful
autumn days, with all the ripened full
ness of the summer lingering in their
sunny hours, their soft breezes and their
cloudless ' skies, ought to teach all
humanity who are struggling so hard
against the autumn of their own lives,
that the gracefal acceptance of the fact
that summer is over adds a beauty all
its own tbat the less ripened charms of
the spriDg of childhood and the summer
of early womanhood could never ap
proach. One can grow old so gracefully
that the full blown rose has far greater
beauty than the undeveloped bud, but
this end can never be accomplished if
the rose struggles against the unfolding
instead of letting each tiny petal of men
tal and. physical development unfurl in
its own natural way, giving forth the
rich fragrance of the mind matured,
rather than shutting in the beauty,- lest
the world should see how nearly its day
of beauty is over.
