WILL IT BE DONE?
T Much has been said as to the ef
fort of the nrimarv election law in
destroying party organization. It
is unquestionably a blow with
that intent . because that was
thought to be necessary to de
throne party "bosses" and de
fitrov nolitical rines.
So far as the republican party
is concerned it has always and
everywhere had enough courage,
vitality and patriotism to purge
and ourify itself without destroy
ing or impairing'ita usefulness to
the rank and file who cling to its
rjrinciples. Were this not true it
would belbecause the great mass
of republicans, that is the entire
nartv. had ceased to care for re
publican principles and purposes
and had, become as selfish and
porriiDt as a few men who had
gained mischievous control of the
nartv machinery. -
Such a conclusion as this would
be absolutely false, and it would
remain true that, however long
and bitter the contest, republi
cans have never abandoned their
principles to effect purification of
nartv conduct.
We take it that there are as ma
ny republicans in Oregon as at
anv time heretofore. We believe
that notwithstanding the prima
ry law and without disturbing
any of its provisions party organ
ization can be effected and main
' tained.. If this is not done it will
simply be because of the factional
sDirit which animates a few
leaders, lhese
ino- tntrfither make the value of
the crop greater than usual, and
well illustrates the economic law
that "supply and demand fix the
price of, commodities .
But; after all, 'the export de
mand for wheat and flour, was in
value only about $150,000,000.
Thi o-ives f400.000.000 as the
value to the farmer of the home
market for his wheat.
Here is a demonstration, so far
as it goes, of the value or cne
home market above all toreign
mnrtcets combined. Were we to
consider other farm products for
which there is little or no demand
for export the value of the home
market to the farmer is greaciy
enhanced.
If we seek to know why this
market is so valuable we shal
firJ the reasons are that it pre
sents a crreater demand and by
consumers who are better able
and more willing to pay for what
they buy than any other market
in the world Consumption - 01
those commodities we do.not pro
duce depends almost entirely on.
our ability to purchase them from
the producer. It follows, tnen,
that the rjrosperity of the farmer
largely depends on the ability of
those engaged m pursuits ; otner
than farming to buy the farmer's
nroducts. Anything which will
create and preserve this ability is
to his benefit
Now some careless writers,
moved bv hatred for protection.
would have farmers believe tnat
if consumers of farm products
miVht avail themselves ot dom
ing and other necessities of life
which are cheap in foreign coun
tries but hisrh in this country they
would be better able to pay thei
farmer high prices for his prod
ucts. This is a lame conclusion,
truly.
Smith, who already buys all
the flour, pork and beans he can
consume buys a suit of foreign
made clothing for $20, for which
his neighbor Jones, the tailor,
$3U.
Smith has now $10 more to ex
pend in farm products, but he
does not increase his purchases
because he already buys all he
remiires. It is plain that Jones
io Mn less able to buy anything,
vj . , .
and that the purchasing aDinty
of several other Americans is de
creased in the aggregate by $20.
Writers in the interest of free-
trade should not assume that far
mers are ignoramuses.

Authentic reports show that
the farmers of the country have
made more money out of their
products for the year 1907 than
for any previous year. The value
of farm products was almost
$500,000,000 greater this year
than last year. This e urn is about
$30, 000,000 less than the value of
the wheat crop alone. It should
not be forgotten, however, that

quantity of what the acreage jt
