BETTER LOOK AT HOME.
A company of Englishmen with noth
ing else to do, have arranged to come to
this country for the purpose of examin
ing into the lynching of negroes in the
South. The New York World recently
sent telegrams to some of the governors
of the southern etates for their opinion
concerning the expected visit and among
other replies received the following from
Governor Northern of Georgia :
"The people of this state are quite
able to administer their own affairs, and
they are doing it in full justice to the
negro, as our laws and conduct attest
We have alreadv endured more outside
interference ' in our local matters than
we will submissively tolerate in the
future. Let these kindly-dispoBed En
glishmen return to their own country
and prevent, by law, the inhuman sale
of virtuous girls to lustful men in high
places ; hang all such demons as Jack
the Ripper ; punish as it deserves the
barbarous wholesale slaughter pt negroes
in Africa by Englishmen, who go there
to steal their gold; supply the necessi
ties to prevent bread and labor riots and
strikes, which are wholly unknown in
the South ; feed and give employment to
the poor as do the people of my section ;
give to the oppressed Irishmen the
rights humanity demands. And, when
they shall have pulled the beam out of
their own eyes, thy may, with better
grace, appoint themselves a t committee
to hunt for the mote th'at may be in our
eyes.
"While we have irregularities at the
South and negroes are sometimes
lynched, they are never slaughtered by
the wholesale, as Englishmen sometimes
destroy them. I send you by mail the
law and record of these matters, and
challenge not only the English committee
on lynching at the South, but I challenge
the civilized world to find a better,
Why come as an investigation to de
nounce the South just prior to congres
eional elections, when we have just had
a. negro lynched in Kansas, April 2, and
another in Ohio . Sunday, April 15, and
when the white Poles and Hungarians
have recently been butchered in Penn
eylvania and negroes run out of Franklin
N. J., in herds? We challenge invest!
gation by all persons who have the right
to investigate these charges; but any
attempt upon the part of the English,
tainted by their own national crimes, to
arraign us for trial must be considered
as a gross impertinence."
SOME WHEAT FIGURES.
Wheat is eelling here at 30 cents per
bushel. That the farmer can live at
this is presumed, partly bocause he will
have to. With phenomenal crops the
farmer can exist at the present price;
but exist is all he can do, and that .only
because he gets a job of hauling, of
plowing, or other work which gives him
small wages. But where the labor is
paid for at average and customary wages
wheat cannot be grown at the price.
If interest is counted on the money in
vested in lands and stock necessary to
cultivate it, the crop would not pay the
bill. We have been shown an estimate
made by a Palouse man who owns 160
acres of good farming land, and who
hires all the work done on his farm.
- This estimate would hold good here.
In this the cost of plowing, sowing, har
rowing, seed and taxes is given at $2.50
per acre, and the other items are put
down as follows : "
Cost of planting $ 400 00
Heading $1.50 per acre 240 00
Threshing 4,000 bushels 240 00
Sacks 140 00
Hauling 100 00
Total $1120 00
The yield at twenty-five bushels to
the acre would be 4,000 bushels, and the
cost is just 28 cents per bushels. As the
cost of hauling here would be on an
average at the lowest 10 cents a sack,
or $200, the ' Palouse estimate would
have to be changed in that much, or
making the total cost of the crop de
livered $1210, or a trifle over 30 cents.
As the cost of growing and heading
would be the same regardless of yield, it
will be easily seen that any less yield
than twenty-five bushels would cause a
loss at the price. The thing that makes
it possible for the farmer to live at all is
that he does all, or . nearly all the work
himself, thus setting small wages for his
labor. There is no such thing in it as
profit or interest on his investment.
With an average yield of fifteen bushels
per acre there would be 2,400 bushels on
160 acres. The cost of growing would
be the sane, $400 ; of heading, $240 ; of
threshing, $144; sacks, $84; hauling,
$140; or a total of $1008, or 42 cents a
bushel actual cost. ' '" "
We must, confess that we are'not at
all hopeful about the completion of the
locks in th.e very near future. Last
year we thought they would be done in
1895, but noting the progress made upon
the work since the Day Bros. . took
charge, we are forced to believe that
they will perhaps be completed with the
century. The Day Bros, have done
good work and, lota of it, but the ele
ments have been against them, and the
contract is larger than they anticipated.
We hope our tears are groundless, but
long waiting has caused us to lose confi
dence in the work, the government, and
nearly everything connected vwith the
work.
The cost of moving wheat from the
Palouse country to Portland is 14J
cents per bushel, and the market price
of wheat is from 26 to 28 cents, ine
cost' from here is 6 cents a bushel, and
the price is 30 cents. It the wheat is as
good, which it is presumed to be, why
should not the price be 8 cents more
than in the Palouse, since there is that
difference in the freight? Again, wheat
is selling at 70 cents per hundred in
Portland, or 42 cents per bushel, and
the freight is 6 cents, leaving 36 cents,
with 3 cents for warehouse dues and
commissions, wbv anouia not- tne
price here be at least 33 cents?

Notice to Water Consumers.
- The charges for patent closets when
used when necessary only, is 25 cents
but when a constant stream is allowed
to flow, the charge is $5 per month. In
the last two years a large number of
closets have been put in, and in a la-ge
number of them a constant stream
allowed to flow. The drain on the water
supply has become so great that 1 am
compelled to enforce the rules, and will
hereafter charge $5 per month for all
closets UBing a constant stream of water,

Sarsaparilla
S. P. Smith, of, Towanda, Pa.,
whose constitution was completely
broken down, is cured by Ayer's
Sarsaparilla. He writes:
" For eight years, I was, most of the'
time, a great sufferer from constipa
tion, kidney trouble, and indiges
tion, so that my constitution seemed
to be completely broken down. I was
induced to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and
took nearly seven bottles, with such
excellent results that my- stomach,
bowels, and kidneys are in perfect con
dition, and, in all their functions, as
regular as clock-work. At the time
I began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla, my
weight was only 129 pounds ; I now can,
brag of 159 pounds, and was never in so
good health. If you could see me be
tore and after using, you would want
me for a traveling advertisement.
X believe this preparation of Sarsaparilla
to be the best in the market to-day."
