A SERIOUS M ATI EK;
Tho threat of China in the
form of a boycott causes much
anxiety to the minds of many of
our prominent men. To judge
from accounts that reach us from
various sources, the matter is
rapidly assuming importance
warranting serious consideration.
One cannot escape the ques
tion: What has China to gain byjmust not only braye disapproval
boycotting American exports?) but ba csalemned, " throttled,
Hitherto she has purchased inland left lifeless. .This is .one
the United States only such com-1 reason for the easy pace we are
modities as she was in need of j traveling.
and could get of us on better
terms, quality considered, than
she could secure elsewhere. If
this be true, and it is certainly I
reasonable, China must stand to
lose.
Is this a matter of retaliation
wherein China hopes tof orce un
told thousands of her coolies up
on us? Does she hope that by
boj'cotting our goods she may
compel us to open our gates to
millions ot her people? Does she
expect us to grant them citizen
ship after their arrival on our
shores? Is it expected that the
United States can be forced into
welcoming hordes of the lowest
of humanity, in view of the fact
that they are by. nature unfitted
for citizenship?
We are willing to grant more i
license to students, travelers,
merchants and others of China's
better class than we have hereto
, fore, but even toxhese we will not
grant citizenship. Of her coolie
class we want none. They
are not neccesary to our happi
ness, nor in the long run are
they of any value in a business
way. It is better for our peace
of mind that they remain at
home. i
We hear quite of ten : from a
certain class of contractors that
the Chinese are a necessity to us
for the reason that they will per
form labor that
our workmen
will not. There
is not an iota
a statement,
do it cheaper,
of truth, in such
The coolies will
mayhap. There is nothing that
we have to do tliat our own la
boring class will not perform if
paid for it as they; should be, and
that undertaking-which does not
promise to pay decent wages to
the laborers required in its ac
complishment may as well be
passed by, at least until such
time as there is a greater de
mand for it.
As the case now stands, it
seems the boycott must continue
or something , like an "open
door" be established for untold
numbers of Chinese coolies. The
later alternative .we - absolutely
refuse to consider. . If they boy
cott our goods our laborers in
turn escape , competition with i
cheap Chinese labor. The goods j
not sold in the land of the dra
gon may remain at home and
there will be a good market pro- i
vided by our laboring class, as j
they will receive better wages.
A good foreign market is in
many ways a blessing, as it cre
ates a demand for bur surplus,
but if the creation of such sur
plus be made the pretext for the
importation of an undesireable
class of labor, we fail to see
wlierein the wage earners of the
United States are to be benefit
ted. Any country to be prbsper
ous must foster conditions favor
able to her middle class, those
who by their" industry designate
said country's place among na
tions. Of the Chinaman one
' thing can be truthfully said he
, is ever industrious. This is the
one thing; this is all. We can
not love'him either for the faults
he has or has not.
A RUINOUS POLICY.
Manv TJeome wonder Whv in isleatoano: cer'am in rpgnirs. asic tor to-
.v . a i j i. j?
that Oregon- - does -not forge
ahead faster. There are many
reasons why we are laggards '.in
the march of progress. In spite
of unfavorable conditions our
state is going forward, but not
so rapidly as some of her west
ern sisters.
One reason why we are run
ning a slow race is on account of
the policy of Oregon's "first
families;" the jr seem to think
that they inherited Oregon and
! that so long as a scion of a "first
family" 13 in existence ihey are
entitle to rule the roost. Many
of these scions have their abid
ing places in Portland and anyv
thing not directly in the interest
of Oregon's metropolis, there
fore not in the interest of these
metropolitan "first families,"
When the capitalists of Port
land awaken to the fact that
they would prosper more were
they to adopt a different policy
toward interests in other parts of
the state, and test the truths of
their discoveries by putting into
practice the policies said truths
demand, then, and then only,
will we go ahead with a bflund.
As it is now, no city other than
Portland shall have a chance.
As an example of the methods
adopted by some wholesalers in
Portland we will state that a
few days ago one of our leading
merchants recited an experience
of his, as follows: Until recent
ly our merchant had been buying
abroad certain articles in whole
sale lots. One or two J; Portland
wholesalers got wind of the mat-
te$ and raised such a howl that
the local business man was
denied the privilege of a rate
such as he had heretofore been
gratned by manufacturers. The
wholesale meddlers of Portland
even went so far as to send a
spy to Corvallis to look up affairs.
The methods practiced in- Port
land, iia some instances in the
past, have been damnable, but
this piece of spying is unusually
dirty. ,- '
The disposition of every busi
ness man in Corvallis is to assist
all worthy enterprises ! started
within the county of Benton, for
they realize that a continuance
of such a policy will eventually
prove beneficial to them. Now,
Portland stands in the same re
lation to the State of Oregon
that Corvallis does to Benton
county, and she should take a
pattern from us and every other,
county seat in the state. ; Her
duty is plain.

Eight months ago I was so ill
that I was compelled to lie or sit
down nearly all the time. My
stomach was so weak and upset
that I could keep nothing on it
and I vomited frequently. I
could not urinate without great
pain and I coughed so much that
my throat and lungs were raw
and sore. The doctors pro- "
nounced it Bright s disease and
others said it was consumption.
It mattered little to' me what
they called it and I had no de
sire to live. A sister visited me
from St. Louis and asked me if .
I had ever tried Wine of Cardui.
I told her I had not and she
bought a bottle. I believe that ;

G. B. Burhaas testifies after four
! years.
G. B. Burhans, of Carlisle Center, N.
' Y. writes : ' About four years ago I
wrote you stating that I had been entire
ly cured of severe kidney trouble by tak
ing lees than two bottles of Foley's Kid
ney Cure. It entirely stopped the brick
dust sediment, and pain and symptoms
of . kidney disease disappeared. I am
glad to say that I have never had a re
turn of any of those symptoms during
the four years that have elapsed and I am
evidently cored to stay cured, and hearti
ly recouinieuit Foley's Kidney Cure to
any one suflering from kidney or bladder
trouble.' Sold by Graham and Wortham.
Was Wasting Away.
"I have been troubled with kidney dis
ease for the last five years," writes Robert
R. -Watts, of Salem, Mo. "I lost flesh
and never felt well and doctored with
leading physicians and tried all remedies
without relief. Finally I tried Foley's
Kidney Cure and less than two bottles
cured me and I am now sound and well."
During the summer kidney irregulari
ties are often caused by "excessive drink
ing or being overheated. Attend to the
kidneys at ouce by using Foley's Kidney
Cure.
A Touching Story,
is the saving from death o the baby
girl of Geo. A. Eyler, Cumberland, Md.
He writes: "At "the age of 11 months
our little girl, was in declining health,
with serious throat trouble, and two
physicians gave her rip. We were almost
in despair, when we resolved to try Dr.
King's New Discovery for Consumption,
Coughs and Colds. The first bottle gave
relief, after taking four bottles she was
cured, and is now in perfect health."
Never fails to relieve or cure a cough or
cold. At Alien Woodward's drug store
