CAUSE OF HARD TIMES.
In a country like the United States,
where famine is never known and good
crops are the rule ; where no standing
army, to speak of, is maintained at an
immense cost to the taxpayers ; where
the per cent of crime is small ; where
resources are unparalleled and wages
are uniformly good, it is a matter of
surprise that such widespread hard times
can exist. The causes are difficult to
assign, being almost as varied as there
are exponents to assign them. The
republicans say the universal stringency
is due to the anticipated lowering of the
tariff, while the democrats as persist
ently claim that the tariff as it now ex
ists, has brought the present troubles
upon us ; the labor leader assures us that
the centralization of capital is alone re
sponsible ; the religious bigot that Jusu
its are a tremendously disturbing cause.
No condition, fancied or real, escapes
the reasoning of some men as being di
rectly responsible for the present strin
gency. The silver lining to the dark
cloud is found in the fact that its sud
den appearance may be as quickly dis
pelled. If the Sherman act is unwise,
as it now seems to be almost univer
sally conceded, it will not take long to
repeal it, as congress meets again in Sep
tember. Our resources are so vast and
varied that a few millions one way or the
other cut no figure .in a national sense.
The next congress will certainly legis
late in a manner to ease the existing
condition of affairs. If they legislate at
all they will do so. The uncertainty as
to just what they will do is the most
palpable cause of alarm, on the princi
ple that it is the unknown which terri
fies. It is not likely that the new con
gress will do anything nearly so sweep
ing as the democratic platform, taken
literally, would require. Most' men,
"even among the democrats, do not favor
free trade to the extent as there stated.
There will yet be ample protection on
all commodities that need it.
Locally, the money market is easier
than it was a month ago ; collections
are better and a general convalescent
tone is noted. The lessons taught in
the east will prove beneficial to our
local merchants, and they will restrict
the practice of giving credit upon in
sufficient security. They will stick
closer to the cash system, while curtail
ing and hedging in all reasonable ways.
The greatest cause for the congestion
here lies in the fact that the wool is lied
np on account of an indisposition to sell.
At this season of the year a million and
a half of dollars are usually disbursed.
The last number of the Goldendale
Sentinel bears no comparison to its im
mediate predecessors. The adolescent
youth who has been promoted to the
less arduous duties of the composing
room fired his parting shot at the direct
ors of the paper upon which he was
working in the last issue of May, and
Hugh Gourlay, well known in Wasco
county, aa a man of education and dis
cernment, and withal an incisive writer,
took charge of the tripod. The Sentinel
has acquired at a single leap all it could
gain in twenty years by the slow process
of educating its youthful editor through
the fiery ordeal of competitive comment.
While our neighboring state across
the river is suffering financial reverses,
and the closing of banks are a daily oc
currence, no bank failure will be re
ported from Oregon. From dispatches
it has been learned that Portland banks
are thoroughly sound and can stand any
draft, sudden or long-continued, and the
flame can be .said of all banks throughout
the state. Oregon today is better pre
pared with ready cash than any other
state in the union.

MORO NEWS.
The Field, aa Covered by Our Special
Correspondent.
Mr. Edinburgh was buried at Wasco
last Friday.
Mr. Munro Flora has rented the
Farmers' Hotel.
Mr. Flora's brother-in-law, Mr. Slater
of Lebanon, has moved to Moro.
The east wind has been blowing for
three or four days, but the grain is look
ing fine.
Mr. E. D. Fowle, the wide awake life
insurance agent from Seattle, is spending
a few days in Moro.
Mr. Earnes Moore gave the band boys
an oyster, supper at his father's house
Saturday evening.
Mrs. 3. J. Thompson's sister, who has
been visiting with her for two or three
weeks, started for her home in the east
last Friday. v
Mr. Frank Peddicord and family from
Emigrant Springs, visited his brother
W. J. Peddicord and attended camp
meeting Saturday and Sunday.
Mr. Davenport, our genial dentist, has
purchased two lots in Moore's addition,
opposite the Baptist church, and intends
to build a neat dwelling house and find
a nice housekeeper, we presume.
Camp meeting closed Sunday evening
with a large attendance. There were no
conversions that I heard of. Mrs.
Golden of Goldendale was in attend
ance, also quite a number from different
parts of the country.
Mr. Louis Hulbert is quite sick and
was moved last week to the residence of
Mr. Smith, where he can be sure of good
care and medical attendance. By the
way, Dr. Smith is putting up a good
barn, and to judge from the numerous
calls (not professional) that he makes to
a certain house on the hill, we think he
will soon build a residence as well.
Mr. S. E. Lindsey of Salem is stop
ping in Moro for a few days. He is sell
ing trees for the State Capitol Nursery.
Mr. J. B. Mowry gave him an order for
one thousand prune trees. Mr. Lindsey
also invested in one of Mr. Mowry's
large town lots just north of E. M. Les
lie's. We like to see men from other
parts of the state come to Moro to buy
town property. It shows that they have
confidence in its future growth and pros
perity. There is room for more.
Every one is in excellent spiritp over
the late decision of Mr. Hoke Smith in
regard to the military land. Messrs.
Messenger, Mowry, and others have
gone to The Dalles to attend to the filing
on theirs. More anon. Don.
Mono, June 6, 1893.
"Golden Medical Discovery" cures
those diseases which comes from blood
impurities scrofula and skin diseases'
sores and swellings.
But does it? It's put up by the thous
ands of gallons, and sold to hundreds of
thousands. Can it cure as well as
though it had been compounded just for
you?
Its makers say that thousands of peo
ple who have had tetter and salt-rheum,
eczema and erysipelas, carbuncles and
sore eyes, thick neck and enlarged
glands, are well today because they used
it.
Suppose that this is so. Suppose that
a quick-witted man was far-seeing
enough to know that to cleanse the
blood was to cleanse the life. Suppose
that by many experiments, and after
many failures, he discovered this golden
key to health and that his faith in it for
you is so strong that you can go to your
druggist, buy a bottle, and if it doesn't
help you, you can get your money re
turned cheerfully. Will you try it?
The remedy to have faith in, is the
remedy the makers themselves have
faith in.
Married a Rich Widow.
Chicago, June 6. Mrs. Henry Field,
widow of a' wealthy capitalist of this
city, was quietly married at noon today
to Thomas Nelson Page, the well-known
Southern writer, at the residence of
Hon. T. B. Bryan, at Elmhurst. Their
future residence is Washington.
While Mr. T. J. Richey of Altona,
Mo., was traveling in Kansas he was
taken violently ill with cholera morbus.
He called at a drug store to get some
medicine and the druggist recommended
Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar
rhoea Remedy so highly he concluded to
try it. The result was immediate relief,
and a few doses cured him completely.
It is made for bowel complaint and
nothing else. It never fails. For sale

' CHILDLESS HOME.
Smith and his wife have every luxury
that money can buy, but there is one
thing lacking to their happiness. Both
ore fond of children, but no little voices
prattle, no little feet patter in their
beautiful home. "I would give ten
years of my life if I could have one
healthy, living;, child of my own," Smith
often says to himself. No woman can
be the mother of healthy offspring -unless
she herself is in good health. If she
suffers from female weakness, general
debility, bearing-down pains and func
tional derangements, her physical con
dition Is such that she cannot hope to
have healthy children. Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription is a soverign and
guaranteed remedy for all these ailments.
Worn-out, "run-down." feeble women,
need Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
It builds them up. It's a powerful, re
storative tonic, or strength-giver free
from alcohol and injurious drugs. The
entire system is renewed and invigora
ted. It improves digestion, enriches the
blood, dispels aches and pains, gives re
freshing sleep, and restores flesh and
strength.
It's the only guaranteed medicine for
women, sold by druggists.
