It dealt with considerable length with the progress of the labor movement during the last rear, renewing the legislative matters of Importance to labor Interests and making reference "e striae of the Now England cot ton spinners, the Colorado labor trou bles and other oonfllcts and disagree ments between employers and em ployees. Reference was made also to the result of the late election and to the important part which organ ised labor had takes m the campaign. Numerous recommendations were made In regard to safeguarding the welfare of the federation and Its af filiated bodies and Increasing their strength and Influence.

The socialistic tendanctai n the part of a considerable clement of the federation membership Is bound ito manifest Itself hi one form or an other, and U la not improbable that It will oppose the re-election of Pres "IObuJ Oompers, who has never taken any pains' i$ conceal his hostility to the soclaUatl movement Another "Witter that is likely to precipitate a lively discussion Is the proposition of President Michael Donnelly of the packing house employes to take steps to spread the Chinese exclusion act so that It will cover Japanese.

N. and Short Una Will Give Portland Merchants Advantage. Portland, Nov. 14. New and lower rates from Portland to Interior Idaho points are announced by the O. R. ft N. Co., thus granting the much de sired distributive freight rates which have been sought for some time by merchants of the Northwest About December 1 the new tariffs will go Into effect, and the news will be gratifying to Portland shippers who have hitherto been working at a disadvantage in the Interior against merchants of Boise. Salt Lake, Spo kane, and even San Francisco, who have been given more favorable rates to reach that territory. The new rates will mean that Portland jobbers will probably get more business from 8outhem Idaho. The new tariff will enable the Portland dealers. In groceries and hardware especially, to compete with merchants of other cities on an equal freight rate, and a large share of the business, which has been lost of late years because of the rate offered by the O. R. ft N. Co., will again come to Portland. The reductions are ma terial and have been clamored for by Portland jobbers for some time. One Saloon in Multnomah County Supported by Ootsnty Poor Farm. "fellows from the poor farm get drunk and lie in the road and have to be rolled to places of safety," was the burden of the remarks of F. E. Mll ler, superintendent of the Ladd farm, on Canyon road, mads to the board of county commissioners, when he pro tested against the granting of a li cense for the establishment of a sa loon at Sylvan this morning, says the Telegram. After Mr. Miller had filed his protest he made the following statement for publication. "A saloon at Sylvan has always been a nuisance There is a school near by and children going to and .from it are insulted. Womsn are also Insulted, and some remarks were made to my wife when I was not with her and which. If I had been there, would not have passed unnoticed. Then the paupers front the farm fre quent that place and teamsters pass ing to and from frequently find them lying drunk In the middle of the road and have to roll them off to one aide and let them steep off the effect of tne intoxicants. "The county farm is a full mile this side of Sylvan, but the oauners climb the hill in order to reach the saloon. How they get the money to pay tor the liqaor I do net know, but I do know that a former saloonkeeper at Sylvan told me that If it was not for the county farm trade he would have to go out of taatneaa. Hs said that six or seven bottles were bought oy inmates of the) farm every day, and that kept him up." TO PROTECT. THE RANGE. The 8heep ana Cattle Slen Combine Against Outsider.

The management of the exposition has appropriated a $40,000 fund to be distributed as prises and premiums, and this fact has been responsible to a large extent, for the Interest shown by owners of various kinds of stock.

Oregon Produced Best Crop In the History of the State In 1804. The shrinkage of the territorial wools this year are varying consider ably, says the American Shepherd's Bulletin. The Utahs on the average are heavier this year than last by about 2 per cent The Wyomings are heavier by 3 per cent. The Montanas are said to be lighter judging from those which have thus far been seen and exam ined. Many of them are said to be in better condition also than last year. The early Arlzonas were heav ier, as well as defective, and were bought at a lower grease price than last year. The Colorados are a little heavier by 1 or 2 per cent. The Oregons are reported to be lighter, and In far better condition this year. In fact, some claim, that It is doubtful if a better clip was ever grown in the state of Oregon. The Idaho wools are said to be 3 or 4 per cent ugnter this year tnan they were last. It Is doubtful, how ever, If the growers In the sections mentioned were aware of these facts as to comparative shrinkage before their wools had been contracted for or sold. The Idahoa especially are said to be in very light and in good condition as compared with those of last year taken as a whole. 8uch be ing the case, In view of the grease prices which were paid for many of the heavier wools from other sections. If the latter were actually worth what they brought the Idahos should have commanded higher prices. BALLIKTS FOURTH TRIAL. Hen-styled "Nig Him cf Finance" Mar Plemd Gasttr.
