FREE WOOL AND A HIGH PRICE.
One of the few democratic papers in
Eastern Oregon (most of that kind have
died since the democratic prosperity be
gan) insist that prices began to decline
about the time the McKinley law went
into effect ; that good times are return
ing now that the Wilson bill is in full
ffect. Well, as we once before suggest
ed, the fools are not quite all dead yet.
It is hardly worth while to make re-
tlv to euch nonsense; bat we believe
that even the Hood River Glacier knows
very well that when the country learned
in November, 1S92, that the democratic
party was to control the government,
and its tariff policy was likely to be
adoped, prices then, and not till then,
began to materially decline, business to
contract, and hard times to be felt.
Now the nation at large, being as
surred that before another twenty
months shall have pasned the party
which believes in protection of home in
dustries and American manufacturers
will be in charge of the government, is
again willing to use its idle capital, busi
ness is reviving, and wool is coming up
to the highest price possible, in the face
of foreign competition. Were it not for
this foreign competition, the price would
no doubt advance almost, if not quite, to
the anti-democratic times. Wool now
sold will scarcely reach the market in
the form of clothing until after the in
auguration of a republican government
in. March, 1897. For this reason the
prjee of wool is up to the high water
mark of foreign competition ; but no
man of sense will claim for a moment
that free wool is helping the wool voar
ket.
THE STANFORD SUIT.
The demurrer to the complaint in the
case of United States vs. Mrs. Stanford
has been sustained in the U. S. circuit
court in San Francisco. This probably
ends the case in the lower court, and un
less the decision is reversed by the ap
pellate courts, will end the controversy
and leave the property now held by
Stanford University intact, a result
greatlv to be desired by all who believe
that opportunities for higher education
tend toward bettering society and the
strengthening of the nation.
Men who invariably denounce wealth
and hate financial success, who believe
that to him who hath not should be
given what others have, will continue te
curse Mr. Stanford. But the world gen
erally will rejoice that Stanford's plan
to increase opportunities for a thorough
and practical education is not to be
thwarted. Vevdo not think that con
gress ever intended that the stockholders
of the Central Pacific should become
personally responsible for the loan made
to the road ; but if it did, and the stock
holders are under a legal obligation to
repay the loan, it would strike disinter'
sted people as more just had the
TJnitsd States sued the living stock
holders and left Stanford University as
a last resort.

He pointed out some of the great good
that would be done civilization by the
outcome of the war, and closed with the
hope, eloquently expressed, that Japan
would follow America and be what she
is, a leader in Christian civilization.
Not one who listened last night could
think otherwise but that this youug
Japenese, who has been hut five years
in America, has a future before him
than which none can be brighter. He
has in him the springs of oratory, and
with the fine discerning judgment which
he showed last night, will return to his
people and be a power among them.
Last Meeting of the ITear.
AND THIS IS TRUE.
It is not exceeding the bounds ot rea
sonable modesty to claim for Crook
count v part of the reputation The Dalles
has gained as a market, on account of
handling the long, clean staple grown
nere. frinevuie iteview.
The Dalles gladly gives to Crook
county its mete of credit, and the share
is a large one. The wool from its sheep
is praised wherever known, and has
jreatly helped in giving our market it
high reputation. But Crook county and
the other wool-producing sections will
join with The Dalles in attributing the
higher prices to the factor that above all
else has been the means of obtaining
them and that is The Dalles, Portland
& Astoria Navigation Company.
Miss Finette Woodbury, who has been

A Brilliant Tonne Japanese.
The contractois at the Cascadns now
expect to complete their contract by the
end of this year. The canal will not
then be entirely completed, but the
locks will be complete and the canal can
be used. The work is being pushed
with great energy, and there seems no
Teason why the expectation of the con
tractors will not be fulfilled. All Ore
gon and Washington will then have
re iron to celebrate. No Christmas gift
w 11 he more appreciated in Eastern
Oregon and Washington than the open
ing of the O-sra canal.

Those who attended the Congrega
tional church last evening and heard
Mr.Sann I. Hirota, came away with
jeling that they had listened to a mos
remarkable young man. It was a treat
seldom granted to have a native Japan
ese tell of his own country with the grace
and earnestness with which this young
man spoke. Although but 19 years of
age, his discourse was niaikbd with
judgment and thought full worthy of
man whose judgment was fully matured
Both in manner and in' thougnt was he
charming. In a simple story he told of
Japan, described it ueographicl!y an
related some of its history, spoke of it
wonderful progress in the last twenty
five years and the bright future that
was just dawning. Mr. Hh-ota spoke of
the costumes and habits of his people
and then recited a Japanese poem. Sel
dam have we heard anything prettier.
though not a syllable was intelligible
hut the softness of the language, which
was strongly remindful of the Greek
and the feeling way in which the young
man recited, 'deeply impressed the audi
ence. At another point in the lecture
Mr. Hirota sang a popular Japanese
song, which also sounded prettily.
In discussing the late war the youth
ful speaker saowed his patriotism-: none
of the offensive sort, but of thejkind
which every American would adjmire.
