ON A FREE WOOL BASIS.
When the campaign was on last sum
mer, democratic papers east and west
were voluble and dogmatic in asserting
that the tariff does not help the western
wool grower. To their own satisfaction
they made it appear that the wool grower
who contended for protection was a
foolish fellow, and that he really needed
a democratic administration and free
wool to make him quite prosperous.
Here is what the Boston Herald said in
its wool report last Friday :
The wool market here has not im
proved in the slightest degree from the
extremely depressed situation noted a
week ago. The factors that make the
market dull are not improved. Tariff
agitation and the possibility of reduced
duties on wool unsettle the woolen goods
market, to the extent that manufac
turers are at a loss as to what they shall
do. The possibilities of free wool also
make it imperative that dealers shall
buy the new clip at figures that will
admit of its being sold on the basis of
free wool, and none of the dealers are
going to buy at any of the prices higher
than the basis of free wool, in so far as
it is possible to know what a free wool
basis is.
The Spokane Review evidently believes
the tariff is not the true cause of the de
pression as the following ridicule com
menting upon the Herald's article
shows :
Now that the market has been reduced
to a free wool basis, as admitted by the
leading tariff reform journal of New Eng
land, why doesn't the band begin to
play and the procession to move? Why
don't the woolen manufacturers "reach
out and conquer the markets of the
world," according to democratic ante-
election predictions, instead of refusing
to duv even on a tree wool basis, as thev
are reported to be doing by the Herald?
Why don t the spindles hum and wool
advance in price, as promised by demo
cratic papers who assumed to know all
about the question last fall?
A critical public has observed that
the Montana statue of Justice is bow
legged. The artist says it isn't his
fault, because Ada Rehan was built that
way. Miss Rehan might retort that the
criticism evinces a low conception of
high art, the curve in Miss Justice's leg
being significant of the range habits of
Montana, where everybody rides a
broncho, and where everybody has a
curve of the lower limbs.
Hogs ought to bring good prices this
year. The decrease in the total number
of hogs for the kingdom of Great Bri
tain this year is over 1,000,000. The
shortage in Ireland is estimated at 1,-
200,000 head. The abnormally high
price of bacon and pork, as contrasted
with other meats, will .it is thought,
greatly stimulate hog breeding.
The government has lost nearly $11,
000,000 on the silver bullion it has pur
chased since July 1890. It would have
been money in Uncle Sam's pocket if he
had bought two or three silver mines on
his own account when the pig-silver
carnival was started. Philadelphia

James McGuire, an old pioneer sol
dier, residing at Jacksonville, was killed
by a boy who had been annoying him
last Monday night. Being aged and
decrepit McGuire was irritable and er
ratic, and was easily aggravated into
violent outbursts of temper. He was a
miner, and on Monday evening some
boys were around his place and gave
him a fancied or real grievance at some
of their acts. Procuring his gun he ran
after the boys, and chased one of them
into the barn thaeatening to kill him.
The young fellow turned upon him and
hot him, the ball entering the groin.

IS DEATH EVER "INSTANT.'
Testimony of Surgeons and
la to the Contrary.
Scientists
It is questionable if such a phenome
non as instant death is known to the sci
entist and investigator. Physicians and
surgeons tell us that death by gunshot
is the easiest mode of terminating life ;
vet, rapid as such a mode of taking off
must be, the body has leisure to feel and
the time to reflect, and, on rare occasions,
even to act. On the first attempt of one
of the adherents of the Spanish monarch
to assassinate William, Prince of Orange,
the ball passed through the bones of his
face and brought him to the ground.
In the instant which preceded stupefac
tion, however, he was able to frame the
notion that the ceiling of the room had
fallen in and crushed him.
The cannon ball that plunged through
the head and tore out the brain of
Charles XII did not prevent him from
seizing his sword hilt. The idea of at
tack and the necessity for defense were
impressed upon his mind by a blow
which we would naturally suppose too
tremendous and instantaneous to leave
the least interval for thought. Another
question in this connection is that of
probable pain. Although numerous in
stances can be cited in support of the
view that the mind acts in cases of so
called instant death, it by no means
follows that the infliction of a fatal blow
is attended by the least semblance of
pain or a single pang of fear or regret.
Unless death results immediately, how
ever, the pain may be as varied as the
nature of the injuries.
NEWS OF THE STATE.
The largest prune crop in several
years will this season be grown and

Miss Loretta L. Allen, who was thrown
from a bicycle in Portland a few days
ago, has been compelled to undergo the
amputation of her left foot.
The caterpillar invasion at Mount
Tabor has grown to such proportions
that it has assumed a nauseating aspect,
as one cannot walk without trampling
upon hundreds of them.
A Salem electric car collided with a
buggy containing Lewis P. Griffith, an
old Waldo Hills farmer, smashing the
vehicle, breaking Griffith's collar-bone
and otherwise severely injuring him

Doctor "'Well, my fine little fellow",
you have got quite well again. I was
sure the pills I left for you would cure
you. How did you take them, in water
or in cake ? "
Boy "Oh, I used them in my blow

griping, old-fashioned pills to a good use.
