Address all communication to " THE CHROH-
, . .PTA' S.4CA' FACTORY.
Following the lead of Ths Choniclb
for an employment for the state eon victs
in ;Oregou which would not be oppres-!
eive to free labor, upon our suggestions
ot a jate sack factory in the peniteutiary,
W one is condncteil in Walla Walla,
several journals of the stai have favora-
. lily commented. Th Pendleton Tribune
of . yesterday thinks "tht-matter of let
ting this labor out to the highest bidder,
as has been done in the pat, is not a
Tyise policy. The state can jnat as well
Utilize it ami reap considerable profit
thereby, and yet not bring such labor
" into competition with other institutions
which employ free men in this state.
The state of Washington has made a
success in this matter, and it aeeuis that
Oregon would do well to follow the ex
ample set by her sister state. The man
ufacture of jute bags ' is a business that
has a large field, and there is room for
another jute mill in Oregon. In fact,
Oregon alone could easily use all the
bags that could be manufactured by the
labor of the Oregon convicts and the
production of this commodity would be
profitable, and not interfere with the
employment of free labor, while the
present system of letting out the labor
of convicts to the highest bidder allows
this class of cheap labor to interfere with
the wage earners of the country, sucli as
the manufacture of stoves, which ought
to be produced by . the manufacturing
industries ol the country.
The manufacture of the jute bags at
Walla Walla last year, to the number of
about two million, had a great tendency
to keep the corner from lieing made on
the Calcutta bags, and actually saved
the states of Oregon and Washington
vast sums of money.
No Iwjtter way can be suggested to use
the convict labor ot this state than for
this state to build jute mills and manu
facture the jute bags in competition with
the jute manufactories of India, for no
. other class of labor except convict labor
i v . fu.ii mmnete witli the uauuer labor of
India.
Democratic orguns continue to wail
over "the corrupt use of money by re
publicans" in the late election. They
. seem to think it will serve democracy as
a shield to hide behiu.i. But when the
president elect openly led the forces
with 25,00O ami a democratic newspaper
boasted of raising $34,000 and hundreds
of otiiers made equal claims to such
honors, the howl against republicans
will not amount to much, and will
hardly serve to hide their own crimes.
A pner in Eugene is kicking at Hague
because they had a sunshiny day recent
ly wh-n his forecast of the weather, an
jiotfiiced rain. That is rough. Up this
way the people place considerable con
fidence in the forecasts of the weather,
and we disagree with the Register. We
think "the fellow" who sends them is
mighty right, and does much to soothe
the nerves on a chilly day by his mod
eration clause.
The question of supplying free text
hooks to all pupils in the public schools
' of Washington is being agitated by vari
ous' papers throughout the state, the
conBenBns of opinion being generally in
favor of the movement. In part of at
least twenty-one staU-s in the Union
school books are in whole or in part
supplied free to scholars, and in the
whole or part of eleven states text books
are entirely free.
Engineers Meek, Kennedy and Chalk,
who divided names and created one for
the station known as Mekecha, left be
hind them a puzzler equal to that left
by Buckley, Colter and Davis, who sim
ilarly divided and .left Bucoda for their
cool mine, or Chief Engineer Thielsen's
daughters Clara and Fannie, for whom
Clarnie was named. Tourists generally
write these names as coming from our
charming Indian dialect.
A petition is in circulation for a di
vision of Grant county, the new county
to embrace most of the territory north
of the range of mountains north of the
. valley now lying in Grant county, and a
tier of townships from Umatilla county.
Baltimore cut into a monster plum
pudding and sent President Elect Cleve
land "a twelve ound slice." It was
"English,", yon know. A. duck or a
enipe pudding would have been more
pointed.
Democrats claim that is a Cleveland
winter." It Is pretty much such a one
as followed his election eight years ago.
A sort of paralvzer, so to speak.
There are several combinations on
foot for the speakership and presidency
of the senate. It is said they extend in
to the politics of the future. ' "' " '
