tho prices will go up rather than down.

Tin: favorable proposition for tho
establishment of a woolen mill, of
which our citizens had tho first oppor
tunity, will very likely bo given to
Union, whor-o people arc alivo to every
industry which will bo a factor of de
velopment. If our capitalists had
boon Hufh'ciontly alivo to their own in
terests tho factory would bo in opera
tion today, giving employment to fifty
or sixty consumers; but like tho sloth
ful servant mentioned in Holy Writ,
they havo been idle and lazy and tho
golilon advantage has passed. Wo do
not want to growl all tho timo, nor do
wo fool like scolding; but tlio fact is
as clear as daylight, if our citizous do
not bestir themselves Tho Dalles will
gradually retrograde until business
becomes loss and loss, and tho city will
not bo able to support oiio-half the
business houses it now has. Timos
Mountainoor. Tin: advantages to bo derived by
tho building of a Hume from this city
to tap the immense timber belt east of
town, and tho erection of a number of
largo saw mills, is apparent to all and
it is to bo hoped tho ontorpriso will bo
pushed to completion. Wo do not
think that any one will refuse to give
tho right of way for tho Hume through
their land where it does not in anyway
interfere with thorn, It will not only
bo a great bouiit to tho town of Union,
but to all our farmers and residents
adjacent, as a large number of men
will bo employed, thereby giving our
farmers a ready cash market for all
they can produce. Our farmer, in
order to bo prosperous, must have a
ready market for thoir products.
Where do they find this market? It
is in tho mines and cities where they
nio not produced. Men who work in
minus, mills and factoring by the day
are the onus who consume tho pro
ducts of tho farm. Without towns
and oUioti tbero would be no market
for tho produoU) of tho farm. Our
farmers can suroly fcue this uii'd will in
no way upvoo any enterprise that
tends to build up tho town and thus
furnish thorn n butter uiarkgt for thsir
products.
OIUIANI.H CUIUS.
Senator Urico, chairman of the na- J
tional democratic committee, has
written a letter of warning and advice
to his follow members of tho national
committee. The letter ombodios ad
vice in regard to tho organization of
democratic clubs and tho necessity ol
the national committee co-operating
with them. The plan of campaign of
tho republicans, lie suvs, in a colossal
system of clubs to be maintained and
supported by unlimited moans drawn
from tho pockets of beneficiaries of the
monopoly policy. This system, he
urges, can only bo mot by an equally
extensive system of voluntary demo
cratic clubs, that is, associations of
people in thoir Hevor.il neighborhoods
for the dofonso of their rights and in
terests against those banded together
to assail them. Brico thinks tho ap
proaching struggle is to bo ono mainly
between tho clubs, and it is greatly to
bo desired that a uniform and perfect
system of democratic societies, thor
oughly organized and in intimate as
sociation with each other, shall bo
established before the beginning of
next year.
This is a mattor of much import
ance and stops should bo immediately
taken for tho organization of a demo
cratic club in ovory precinct in the
county and state. By concentrating
tho forces of the party in this way,
and working in harmony, a grout
amount of work can bo accomplished.
Union county should not bo behind in
this matter. Organize at once and
got the young men interested in order
that tlioy may study and discuss the
political issues of tho day.
A GOOD COMPARISON.
On Sunday laht the lOaglo fish editor
noticed a man on tho banks of tho
Walla Walla river who sat all day
long, -villi a fish polo in his hands,
looking at tho water. He said ho saw
no iish and it was no use to throw out
his lino. A boy canio along and in a
moment a lino trout roto to his fly on
the rippling water. Tho boy had not
seenjjtho fish, but he know if there
wero any in tho creek ho could catch
thorn by throwing in his lino. Tho
man on tho bank saw, but was not
convinced, for ho belonged to a past
age.
How many men thoro aro in tho
world who aro just liko the man on
the bank I Thoy aro in business and
thoy say it docs not pay to advertise.
Thoy cannot see customers at their
door and they will not throw out their
lines. The man who does advertise,
liko ,that boy, catches all tho fish.

Tony Noi.tnku, of tho Portland
Dispatch, horotoforo a most rabid ad
vocate of "stick to tho democratic
party," gives utterance to tho follow
ing in his paper, which is well worth
publicity: "Political education in a
country liko ours is essential to tho
progress and purity of our institutions,
and to the administration of :i Hairs.
Intelligence is tho foundation stone
of lioorty, and tho freedom of tho bal
lot can only be rightly exercised when
each volar does his own thinking. A
servile obedience to political bosses is
a burlesque on freedom. Lot each
voter do his own thinking and vote in
accordance with his woll matured con
victions. Then will that political
party whoso principles most nearly
conform to the principles of patriotism
gain and hold the reins of govern
ment." Crop-Woathor, Bullotln No. 17.

Hureauf of Portland, Orogon, has is

and fresh in force.
Crops. Tho woathor conditions
havo been very favorable to tho growth
of crops. Wheat is hoading nicoly
and the excellent prospects for the
wheat orop horotoforo noted continue
Tho weather is oxtrotnoly favorable to
haying operations, which aro now in
full blast. Tho previous wet woathor
damaged tho hay crop to omo extent,
but nevertheloM the yield will bo
above tho average, both as to quality
and qimnlity. The fruit crop it doing
very woll. Huynl Ann cherritw are
fully equal to former yours. The
Dluok Republican is not so good.
Prunes and plums will generally mako
about an avuragc crop. Hop lio aro
prevalent, damage ' lwiug dune, yet
hop growers hope -for an average yield.
Corn is doing well and promises a
good average yield. Early peaches

KASTKItN OUEOON.

except of course in tho more moun

Wheat, oats and ryo nro heading in

absence of tho hot drying winds and

ally made vast improvement. On

' Almost all of tho first crop of alfalfa

Tho grain crop looks well and is

Butter is 25 cents per pound; eggs
25 cents per dozen ; young chickens

Thoro will bo a celebration at Star
