The speaker pointed out that had Mr. Meier) been at the luncheon he would probably have compared the state with a business, for his top ic was along this line. In this advent, there would be a close an alogy between the two, Mr. Riley said, in that both the state and the large department store were greatly similar, with the citizens of the state acting in the capacity of salesmen and their success de pendent upon how well they un derstood the wares that are of fered. ' 'Easterners consider Pittsburgh the great city of the west, the Ohio river their horizon and Chi cago the heart of the northwest," Mr. Riley said. "Oregon is vague and given but few thoughts. They gasp in wonder as they hear of the possibilities of Oregon;! that nearly all of the world Jersey rec ords are held within 30 miles of Salem; that the champion egg lay ing breeds of poultry are develop ed in Corvallls; that this section has the largest hop ranch and tulip farm In the world; that the Port of Portland is the greatest lumber export port In the country and Becond only to Boston as a wool port: the vastness of the wheat exports; the fruit, scenery and highways and the romance of the last frontier of the logger, all have their appeals.' , "Eastern ' Industrialists realize the potential power, the easy ac cess " to world markets and the scenery, but are held back by the lack of population," Mr. Riley said, in closing.

The hopes of man are always venturing westward." . , . , Prior to the arrival of Mr. Riley, T. B. Kay spoke oji the new devel opments in the fla industry. Since returning from lis trip abroad, where he was satisfied that the flax produced in the Salem dis trict was equal tq the best raised elsewhere, B. C. Miles has offered to put $50,000 In a manufacturing plant here. Another Salem man interested in linen mills, hearing of Mr. Miles' offer, stands ready to contribute $25,000, Mr. Kay .said. - Wednesday W1 inursaay; Also Kathleen Clifford: Vaudeville's : Most Famous "Boy" in !

The farmer buys building ma terial. Building brick,; cement.' stone, - shingles, pickets,' palings, hoops, staves of wood of all kinds, logs and timber, either in the rough or hewn, sided, square, sawed, or planed on one side, sawed boards, planks, .and other lumber used for building purposes are all on the free list under the republcian tariff.. The farmer uses leather gloves; he wears boots and shoes; he buys harness and saddles and leather fly nets. Cloves made wholly or In chief of leather, all leather used for harness or saddlery,' lea ther for shoe uppers, shoe vamps, soles, leather shoelaces, boots, and shoes made wholly or in chief of leather, hides of ? cattle' from which leather is made, all are ad mitted free under the republican tariff. The farmer uses whetstones and hones.; They are admitted free under the republican tariff. The farmer uses horse pads. They are admitted under the Ford- ney-McCumber tariff. The farmer uses- barbed wire in fencing and for other purposes. It is admitted free under the republican tariff, This free list eliminates a very large percentage of what the farnu ' buys. If prices of any of these articles have gone up, it is not due to the tariff. Coal, both hard and soft, slack. coke, and - all compositions for fuel in which coal or coal dust is the principal material, are admit ted free. Therefore the tariff has not increased the farmer's fuel bill and is not responsible, in any degree for the high price of coal. Obviously, if wood and lumber are on the free list, . any change in the cost of household furniture and other articles made of wood which. the farmer buys can not be charged to the tariff. After eliminating the farmer's building material, his agricultural implements, his barbed wire, his binding twine, his fuel, his fer tilier, his leather goods of all kinds, his household furniture, and whatever other commodities he purchases in which wood en ters, what is there left to charge up against the republican tariff?

Most of the tears in it come from convulsive laughter, but some will come from sorrow and deepest tragedy that have been intermixed with a plot that is largely In the nature of a farce.
