POPULISTS PARTICULAR OF
THEIR ASSOCIATES.
The Populists in Oregon have re
fused to enter into an unholy alliance
with the Democratic party, and are
going to paddle their own barque
on the ruffled sea of politics. This
will make things all the more inter
esting next June, although there is
no doubt but what the contest will
te sufficiently heated not to allow the
interest to flag.
Just why the Populists have re
fused to train with the Pennoyer
. branch of the Democraticjparty we
Tail to understand. Their principles
seem to be identically the same.
Cheap money and lots of it, lucra
tive offices and plenty of them appear
to be the ODly war cry which meets
with unqualified approval in the ad
herents both of the consistent Popu
listic and Pennoyer-Davis parties.
We are afraid the Populists are tak
ing on a show of virtue that is hardly
due them. It has not been noticed
that Populists when they .get into
power act with much more morality
than do the unpretentious gentlemen
of the older organizations. Popu
ulists like to ride to the legislature
without tlie payment of the usual
fare, and the pass, which is an un
righteous document in the hands of
another person, looks becoming in
their own.
The leaders of the " Populists will
have to issue another manifesto ex
plaining wherein their superiority
. exists, before the fair-minded public
will be sure that they did right in
deserting poor Pennoyer.. The sha
dows are gathering fast about that
rare and saintly individual. His
former friends, the Populists, refuse
' to associate with him, and his com-
missioners and chief of police have
fallen into habits that must bring
sorrow to his heart.
It is stated that more eastern capi
tal is headed towards Oregon City
for investment. This is because Ore
gon City Is known the country over
for its manufacturing ''advantages,
and yet they are not one whit greater
than can be obtained at The Dalles.
If we could makerjone start in this
direction and give our peculiar qual
ifications as a manufacturing center
a chance to be known, capital would
soon be directed to The Dalles. It
is a strange, strange thing that satis
factorily as our growth has been in
other respects, we have continually
neglected perhaps the most import
ant foundation for future prosperity.
Every agitation of this subject
helps it along, and the more talk and
attention given it, the more likely is
something tangible to result.
The successful launching of the
new lightship at Portland Saturday
shows that the PaciGc Northwest
does noi have to send to the East or
elsewhere for finished products.
Everything that can be bought at
home should be done, whether it be
be lightships or butter and eggs.
La Grande has guaranteed a sub
sidy of $80,000 for the establishment
of a beet sugar industry at that
place. Such enterprise is what
makes a town grow, and if the deal
has been made with responsible and
honest parties, the investment will be
a paying one for La Grande citizens.
Nancy Allison McKinley is the
highest type of American woman
hood, and the nation is reverent at
her death bed, because it recognizes
what potent influences for good such
a woman as Mrs. Mckinley possesses.
PETTY ECONOMY.
The Vaeleaaneaa of Storing Up House
bold Odda and Ends. -
It requires an exceptionally wise, ju
dicious person to know where to econ
omize and where to spend. It is fre
quently the way of thrift to spend with
a lavish hand because the return justi
fies the expenditure.' The woman who
laboriously darns a gleg-ham apron
when the can make a new one in half
the time and when the material costs
less than ten cents is decidedly wasting
her efforts or estimating1 her time at
the same standard os the work of the
Chinese coolie. The mended apron will
not wear one-quarter as long as a new
one, and it had better be devoted) to
dust cloths cr to some of the purposes
of cleaning where an old rag i3 required.
The picking up of pins is certainly a
doabtful economy. No one can tell
what infection may be conveyed in a
pin, which is quite likely to be rusty.
A pin is certainly worth, less than the
time taken to pick it up. Where it is
in the house' "or in a place where it may
become a small instrument of torture,
it is wise for humanity's sake to pick it
up, but not for the sake of its value.
Almost all of us have some pet econ
omy. Some people will hoard old
dresses of wool which they have no
time to clean, -and which would not
be fit for wear if they were cleaned.
The result of this hoarding is an in
teresting collection of moths, which in
vade the house and destroy much furni
ture and .valuable clothing, together
with, the worthless. It would be diffi
cult, however, to convince the person
who was devoted to such economy that
it was in fact an extravagant whim that
she was gratifying.
The hoarding of newspapers may be
classed among the same extravagant
fancies. The newspaper is the thing
of an hour, and is succeeded in a day by
another. While there is frequently val
uable reading matter for a scrapbook
in them, the entire papers take up too
much room to be kept by the ordinary
rezCer for anything but waste paper.
They merely collect dust.
Of all absurd things that may be
hoarded the saving of fruit and vegeta
ble cans, except to paint and use for
flower-rots, is the most absurd. An
old tin can is usually a menace to the
health. It is not fit to cook in, though
it is sometimes employed for that pur
pose, nor is it fit to keep food in after
the inner surface is exposed to the air.
It is never fit' to be used a second time
fcr canning. After opening a can it
contents should be poured out at once
into an earthen dish, and never left to
stand in the opened tan. It is a fool
hardy practice to leave such tin cans out
doers, because they are liable to rust,
and a cut from a rusty piece of tin is the
common cause of that dreaded disease,
lockjaw. There is the same dang-er in
using unpain ted tin cans for keeping
plants. Their sharp rusty edges may
cut the hands when the cans are moved.
A hundred such petty economies are
indulged in by thoughtless women, who
imagine that thrift can come from such
foolish hoarding. N. Y. Tribune.
Thousands are Trying It.
In order to prove, the great merit of
Ely's Creanl Balm, the most effective cure
for Catarrh and Cold iu Head, we have pre
pared a generous trial size for 10 cents.
Get it of your druggist or send 10 cents to
ELY BROS., 50 Warren St., N. Y. City.
I suffered from catarrh of the worst kind
ever since a boy, and I never hoped for
care, but Ely's Cream Balm seems to do
even that. Many acquaintances have used
it with excellent results. Oscar Ostium,
45 Warren Ave., Chicago, 111.
Ely's Cream Balm is the acknowledged
cure for catarrh and contains -no cocaine,
mercury nor any injurious drug. Trice,
SO cents. At druggists or by mail.
