A ' PECULIAR STRIKE.
The strike of the American Railway
Union went with the sweep of a confla
gration over the northern half of ' the
United States. Beginning in an at
tempt to boycott Pullman, from the
very nature of the latter's business the
railroads were drawn into it. - The
grievance against Pullman that caused
the boycott was the reduction of wages
in his shops, the employes insisting
that he was trying to squeeze them by
reducing wages, while making no reduc
tion in bis charges to the public. The
union declared a boycott against him,
and the railroad employes refused to
. handle his cars, or trains running them.
The railroad companies refused to run
trains without Pullman cars, and this
forced the issue, as between them and
- their employes. As soon as the latter
refused to move trains with Pullman
cars attached, they vrere discharged, and
the union considering their discharge
unjuBt, stood by them and a strike is
the result. It is far-reaching .and of
tremendous proportions. In Chicago
alone 18,000 men are out. Engines are
"killed," and the cars stand idly on the
tracks.
The issue is squarely made, and it
looks as though the fight would be to
a finish. The effect of the strike, if
maintained for any length of time, will
be appalling. The loss in wages alone
to the strikers will be over a million
dollars a day while the loss incidental
, to the strike will be double that. The
loss to California fruit growers, whose
crops are just now ripening, will run
into the millions, and the paralyzing of
business will add many millions more".
. It is to be hoped that some solution
may be reached soon,' in the inter
est of all. What the result will be it is
impossible to foresee, for it is a case
wherein an irresistable force has struck
an immovable body. That this strike,
however, will be the cause of bringing
nearer the day when the government
will control the railroads and telegraph
. lines, we firmly believe. The country
'Cannot afford to have its business par
alyzed while labor is settling its griev
ances with some corporation, as in the
; present case. '.
The peculiarity of the situation is
"that the union has a quarrel on its
hands with its employers over a matter
that the latter are not interested in.
The hope of the strike is in the weak
ness of some one company, for if one
concedes j the demands of the union, it
will do a tremendous business at the
expense of the others, and it is quite
probable this will be done. If not, the
strikers must lose, for the roads can re
main idle longer than the men.
THE WHEAT OUTLOOK.
The government reports decreased
acreage the past two years 5,500,000
acres. The Prairie Farmer claims about
the same acreage now as in 1892. Ex
pert crop reporters predict a yield in
1894 varying from 380,000,000 to 500,
000,000 bushels, ivlany grain merchants
eeem to expect a crop of about 450,000,
000 bushels. It is conceded the world's
acreage and yield shows little if any de
crease in the past decade. Some statis
ticians claim consumption has increased
about five million bushels yearly. The
London Economist is authority for the
statement that- the Vienna , congress
meets this year for the last time. India
has only exported since April let about
. 45 per cent, as much at last season same
time. Argentine ehfpments this crop
year have increased about 35 per cent.
Beerbohm reports total shipments to
Europe for forty-four weeks as 276,160,-
. 000 bushels, against 265,440,000 the pre
vious season ; the continent importing
about four bushels for every five Great
Britain took. Germany's imports Au
gust 1st to April 30th were 15,120,000
bushels, against 13,824,000 last season.
Italy imported the same nine months
16,600,000 bushels, against 26,992,000.
Spain's imports same time were 11,272,
000 bushels, against 9,568,000 bushels.
The Mark Lane Express of the 18th
inst. reports only 10,000,000 bushels re
main in English farmers' hands, against
13,600,000 bushels a year ago. That
cereals everywhere throughout Great
, Britain promise badly, owing to. the
cold weather. That France shows a
similar state of affairs, and Germany
rye will certainly be short. That rust
' extends through the Australian and
Hungarian wheat fields, and they have
also suffered from storms. That the
Bussian harvest, including Bulgaria and
Boumania, promise well. Cables from
Havre, Marseilles, Antwerp and Berlin
are somewhat complex.repoxting change
able weather. Koumania'a reports are
good. Belgium wheat and rye promise
an average crop. . Few or no complaints
come from our early winter wheat fields
now being cut. The more northern and
western winter and spring wheat belts
seem to be about as varied and spotted
as European reports indicate their crops
are.
Summing up the world's crop, we ared
led to believe the acreage .and yield will
show a possible 5 to 8 per cent, shortage,
while consumption will be increased on
account of the very low price. The
freight from Chicago to this city is but
4 cents per bushel, against" 40 cents
thirty years ago. To Liverpool about
2)4 cents, against 25 cents thirty years
ago. The bread loaf in London was
never cheaper. We look for weather
markets, and, generally speaking, higher
prices, with more speculation, increased
export demand, and a decrease in the
export surplus the coming year.
Weekly Market Letter. .
HOW OLD IS SHEf
Little Miss Haight, of No. 286 Madison
avenue, graduated from her incubator
Wednesday last,' after a four months'
residence there and took her place among
the full-fledged patrician babies of New
York. It will be remembered that the
wife .of E. Clarence Haight died Feb
ruary 24th last, just after the birth of a
daughter, who arrived some three
months before she was expected. It
was not for a moment thought that the
baby would long survive her mother,
but Dr. Carleton had an incubator made
immediately, and the little one, who
weighed less than two pounds, was put
in it. She is today as strong andhealtby
as any young baby of her age.
It looks to an outsider like the rail
road boys are working against their own
interest in refusing to run construction
trains. There is not a particle of dan
ger of the Union Pacific hauling Pull
man cars over this part of the road, not
at present any way. The road should
be put in condition to run when the
strike is settled sometime.' This part
of the country is not interested in Pall
man care, being willing to travel on any
thing larger than a wheelbarrow.
Kent Notes.
Farmers are commencing to get ready
for harvest. Hands seem to be scarce.
Most machine men have commenced to
engage their help. A good many will
head and thrash. Grainjlooks good, the
prospects being ' the best we ever had,
but no prices. Everything seems to go
the wrong way for the poor. Some of
the republicans started out to boycott
the populists, but as bands are scarce,
they have commenced to look after some
of the same ones they had refused to
give work to some time ago ; ' but alas !
the bird had flown.
Gillis Kelsey will commence haying
today. .
Mr. and Mrs. Woods, from near Moro,
were visiting friends and relatives at
and near Kent last week.
A little boy of Mr. Peters' was thrown
from a horse, caught and dragged to
death . a few days' ago. We did not
learn any of the particulars. Parents
should be more careful about letting
their little children ride so young.
They do not realize the danger.
Squire Comstock is doing the bache
lor act this week. His wife is visiting
near Moro.
Bennett Bros, are engaging their
hands for heading and thrashing. They
will head and thrash this season.
Fred Merchant and . James Spoone
more came up from Southern Oregon
last week. They made the trip in five
days and one-half, in an overland flyer.
The boys seem to think there's no place
like Sherman county.
W. H. Bennett made a flying trip to
Moro last week on business.
Zack Taylor is hauling damaged wheat
from M. H. Bennett's place.
J.JDonahue and B. M. Brown are in
The Dalles with wool this week.
Rev. Hinton of Grass Valley preached
to quite an attentive audience in the
blue scboolhouse yesterday. Come
again, Mr. Hinton, we like to see the
good work go on. Uncle Isaac.

" Among the

als which I see
in regard to cer

none impress mo
more than my
own case.
Twenty yeara

swellings come -on
my legs,
which broke and
became run
ning sores.
Our family phy
sician could do
me no good, and it was feared that the
bones would be affected. At last, my
good old
IVlother Urged Me'
to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I took three
bottles, the sores healed, and I have not
been troubled since. Only the scars,
remain, and the memory of the
.past, , to remind me of the good
Ayer's Sarsaparilla has done me.

AN ANIMAL'S GRATITUDE.
How It Was Clearly Shown by Wild
Tlsresa.
"Savage beasts, even in their native
wilds, sometimes recognize an act of
kindness, and shov. their gratitude by
the most unmistakable ' signs," re
marked an old sea captain recently.
"A number of years ago the ship which
I then commanded . was becalmed off
the coast of India, and, taking- a boat
of men, I went- ashore in search of
fresh water. In some way I became
separated from f.ie crew, and in wan
dering1 around was a good deal startled
at coming' directly upon a full grown
tigress. Much to my surprise, the
beast did not make any hostile demon
strations toward me, but crouching
on the gTound looked steadfastly,
first at my face and then at a tree a
short distance away. For a- time 1
could not understand this conduct, and,'
not daring- to 'fun for fear she would at
once overtake me, I stood rooted to
the spot, .Presently tne tiffress arose
and walked to the tree, looking back
ward as she went. On turning- my
g-aze aloft, I saw among- the branches
of the tree what had caused the evident
solicitation of the tigress. There,
perched m one of the limbs, sat a big
baboon with two little tiger cubs in its
arms. Having- an ax with me I start
ed to cut the tree down, the tiprress
watching mc intently, all the while
When the tree fell and the three ani
mals with it, the tigress pounced upon
the baboon and with great fury dis
patched it. After gently caressing her
offspring, she turned to rae with a look
which plainly expressed her thanks for
the service I had rendered her. SJie
then disappeared in the forest, her two
cubs trotting behind her."
Look up, and not down," if you're- a
suffering woman. Every one of the
bodily troubles that come to women
only has a guaranteed cure in Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription That
will bring you safe and certain help.
- Its a powerful general, as well as
uterine, tonic and nervine, and it builds
up and invigorates the entire female
system. It regulates and promotes all
the proper functions, improves diges
tion, enriches the blood, brings refresh
ing sleep, and restores health and
strength.
For ulceration, displacements, breaking-down
sensations, periodical pains,
and all "female complaints" "Favorite
Prescription" is the only guaranteed
remedy. If it even fails to benefit or
cure, you have your money back.
