FREE SILVER MEXICO.
Examples are the strongest kind
of argument, and to the average
mind will carry weight when subtle
reasoning fails. The silver craze,
which is sweeping over the country,
bas affected all classes of people.
There are those who if they have
not done it will study the question
seriously and come to a rational con
clusion. Others will refuse to let in
the . light, and declare, as one man
did on the streets of The Dalles not
a week ago, that be would "vote for
a dog if the dog were for free silver."
With such a man argument has no
forced and to reason with him is but
-weste of energy. He can, how
ever, be , reached by some concrete
example, and no better one can be
brought forward than the illustration
of Mexico, a country which rests
purely and simply upon the silver
basis. ,
Francis E. Clark the president of
the president of the Society of Chris
tian Endeavor, has just returned
from a journey through Mexico, and
his observations are most timely.
He writes not as a partisan of silver
nor gold, but simply as a traveler
who has kept his eyes open. '-The
silver of Mexico," he says, "has not
found its way, to any great extent,
into the pockets of the poor people.
Wages are evidently on the highest
port of a gold basis. A number of
my friends told me that they pay
their cooks about five dollars a
month, about one quarter the price
of such labor in .the United States.
In the country district an able
bodied man earns six dollars (Mexi
can) a . month; three dollars (Amer
ican) and his board; while a fair
day's wages in city or country for
a laboring man is fifty cents (Mexi
can), twenty-five cents (American).
.Nowhere are beggars more in evi
dence than in prosperous (?) Mex
ico. Indeed, the condition of com
mon people seems not one whit
better than that of the fellahin of
Egypt or the pariahs of India. Is
free silver the good genius of the
republic? I will leave it for the
financiers to say. I simply record
the impressions of a traveler."
-This, is impartial testimony, and
the verdict for "which it forms a
basis is that free silver is inimical to
. the welfare of a nation. The nat
ural resources of Mexico should place
it among the great nations, yet it is
oocupj ing an inferior position, and
the-reason is not hard to see.
The warm spell which has visited
us for the last three weeks has been

fall-sown wheat will not be as large
as indications pointed earlier in the
season. Tbe shortage will not be so
great, however, as sonie people pre
dict, and -Wasco county will have a
good harvest even if it will not be
so large as M'e would wish. In no
year has the superiority . of good
farming been demonstrated more
than this. Those who planted intel
ligently, using forethought and good
judgment, will be substantially re
warded, while the farmers who trust
ed too much to good fortune will
fall . short of their expectations.
This rule will not fit all cases, but
will apply generally. In fanning,
as in everything else, the man who
uses his thinker is the one that comes
nearest to winning.

Nome Bat Ayer at ttie 'World's Fair.
Ayer's Sarsaparilla enjoys tbe extra
ordinary distinction of having been tbe
only blood purifier allowed on exhibit at
tbe world's fair, Chicago. ; Manufact
urers of - other . aarsaparillas sought by
every means to obtain a showing of their
goods, but tbey were all turned away
under tbe application of tbe rule for
bidding the entry of patent medicines
and .nostrums. . The decision of tbe
world's fair authorities in tavor of Ayer's
Sarsaparilla- was in effect as follows:
"Ayer's . Sarsaparilla Is not a patent
medicine. It does not belong to the
list- of nostrums. . It is here on its
merits." .. .
