GOOD NEWS FOR THE FARMERS.
Yesterday's Telegram says :
"The O. R. & N. will tomorrow an
nounce a redaction in the rates on
on wheat from the interior to Portland,
to offset, as far as possible, the low prices
for wheat to the farmers. In this con
nection, the O. R. & N. will also reduee
its, operating expenses by the cutting of
wages of shop employes. . Neither the
new schedule of wages nor the reduced
rates on wheat have yet been definitely
decided on, bat the matter is now under
consideration, and both will be made
public tomorrow. The O. R. & N. shop
men under the present schedule, when
on full time, are paid about 40 per cent
more than the same class of employes in
the Missouri river territory. The cut
does not contemplate a reduction equal
to this difference, bat will average about
12 per cent, though in some instances
it will exceed that amount.
"This will leave the wages of the em
ployes from 25 to 30 per cent higher
than those paid for similar work in the
.Missouri river territory. . As the shop
employes have not been working on fall
time for several months, and often on
le68 than half time for weeks together,
with the cut, when given steady em
ployment they will be enabled to earn
more money than they have heretofore
done, on account of the longer hours and
more days' work.
"It is necessary to make these reduc
tions in the operating expenses in order
to justify a reduction in the rates for
hauling wheat from the interior. The
shopmen gain in longer hours more than
they lose in the reduced schedule, and
this latter loss is the gain, first of the
farmers in lower grain rates, and later
of all with whom the farmers do busi
ness, and of the whole country by further
relieving the stringency in money
matters. It will be the policy of the O.
R. & N., under its present management.
to work to the greatest possible extent
in the interest of Oregon, realizing that
upon the condition of this state and of
the Walla Walla and Palouse countries
in Washington, through, which its lines
pass, must depend the volume of buai
ness over the O. R. & N. and the conse
qnent amount of its revenue. The
wheat rates will be cut to the lowest
possible point consistent with the oper
ating expenses of the road, and to make
it lower every department will have its
expenses reduced to a minimum.
"The exact point where the expenses
will be reduced cannot now be made
public, and, in fact, have not yet been
definitely decided on, but they will be
carefully gone over, and wherever a little
pruning can be done without working a
hardship on any one one, the knife will
be applied, and fancy salaries On the O.
E. fc N. system will soon be a thing of
the past. Useless expenditures natur
ally creep into the operation of any great
railroad system, and an occasional turn
ing over of the order of things with a
view to economy is always required, and
especially is this the case at this time,
when the reduction in expenses is to be
offset by decreased earnings on account
of reduced rates of the staple products
of the state, which mast be moved from
the interior to the seaboard.
"The rolling stock of the O. R. & N.
is in good condition, and there will be
plenty of cars to move the crops, which
will be brought in as fast as delivered to
the railroad company, in contradistinc
tion of the policies puisued in some pre
vious years, when there has been a
widely-believed rumor of a combine be
tween the railroads and the elevator
companies to keep the price of wheat to
Oregon and Washington producers down
to the lowest possible point, by the re
fusal of the railroads to move it out of
the country, and the inability of farmers
to realize on it at home.
"The O. R. & N. will not be a party to
any such scheme, and with this road
out. no other can go in, so that it will be
a scramble between the railroads as to
which shall get the shipments from com
petitive territory.
"The benefits to be derived from this
reduction' in wheat rates cannot be esti
mated at this time, but that its influence
mast be felt in every line of business is
certain. The railroads will derive a
bene'fit, partly compensating for the re
daction, by the shipment of more goods
into the interior, than would be the case
if the profits of producers were entirely
absorbed, and this, in turn, will furnish
more employment to the men whose
wages will be reduced by the new sched
ule. There will be few, if any, sufferers
from the cr-nrse decided on, and there
will be many beneficiaries.
AND THEY DON'T AGREE.
We have maintained for the past two
months that the house and senate would
not agree on the tariff bill. Of course
this is only our opinion, for we are no
more capable of guessing what a demo-
vades the democratic congressman, and
that only glints when it pertains to his
re-election. The members of the house
can go before the people in better shape
without a tariff bill than with that ot
the senate. Looked at from a demo
cratic standpoint, the best thing to be
done is to disagree, unless the senate re
cedes from its position.
The democratic leaders always man
age to do the wrong thing at the right
time, and Gorman; Brice and others,
refusing to pass the Wilson bill, have
examplified that idea. It is perhaps
better for the country that they should
take that stand, but it is death to the
democracy.
We are still of the opinion that no
tariff bill will become a law at this ses
sion of congress, for after the senate and
house are through the president will ex
amine into the amount of "perfidy and
dishonor" iu it. Mr. Cleveland is not a
friend of either of those characters.
SOME SUGAR FACTS.
A tariff on sugar is in accord with
democratic theories being a tariff for
revenue, and not for protection. This
country uses 1,SOO,000 tons of sugar
of which we produce a little more than
300,000 tons, 265,000 of which are grown
in Louisiana. It will be seen from this
that the tariff in its protective features
affects . only about one-sixth of the
amount consumed, the tariff on the
other five-sixthB going into the treasury.
In this connection it may be added that
cane yields 3,000,000 tons and beets
3,770,000. Germany is the greatest
sugar producer with 1,300,000 tons, fol
lowed by Cuba with 900,000, Austria
with 825,000, Russia with 050,000 and
France with 575,000.

Services were held at the bridge camp
ground last Sunday, Rev. Dr. Brown
preaching the sermon.
The Sunday dinner was curtailed by
the loss of the nice mutton that was
procured from a near-by sheep camp.
Having been put in a cool place to keep
over Saturday night, some prowling
dogs made away with it and the butter.
The campers had to go without their
mutton, but they had food for thought
in Dr. Brown's sermon.

.1. ). Wilson Contractor and

thus speaks of Ayer's Pills:
' A yer's Tills are the best medicine I
ever tried ; and, in my judgment, DO
better general remedy could be devised.
I have used them in my family and
recommended them to my friends and
employes for more than twenty years.
To my certain knowledge, many cases
of the following complaints have been
completely and
Permanently Cured
by the use of Ayer's Pills alone: Third
day drills, dumb' ague, bilious fever,
sick headache, rheimmtisni, flux, dys
pepsia, constipation, and hard colds. I
know that a moderate use of Ayer's
Pills, continued for a fewdays or weeks,
as the nature of the complaint required,
would be found an absolute cure for the
disorders I have named above."
" I have been selling medicine for
eight years, and I can safely say that
Ayer's Pills give better satisfaction
than any other Pill I ever sold." J. J.
