PATRONS of the Wisconsin
Central Lines in passing through
Chicago may require some assist
ance in the way of having their
hand baggage taken form or to
train and carriage or bus, or in
many other ways, and they will
find all that is desired in this re

uniformed with brown suit and red

PRESS COMMENT.
Mot Necossarlly What the Gazette Think

Oregon will have a Bound money ien-
ator next J anuary who will be sound naturally be compared with the euooesa
from top to toe. There will be no Btrad- ive revenue laws of the oivil war period.
dling tbia time and Oregon will, henoe- and nothing will be more notioable in
forth, know "where'a she at" on the snob an examination than the large num
money question. Portland Chroniole. ber of possible sources of revenue wbiob
A number of state papers are naming
Hon. Joseph Simon as the next United
States senator. They may be a little off
in their prediotion. . However, the stale
I would be a gainer in suoh a selection.
Portland Chroniole.
Jfossibilities tor United States senator
to fill the vaoant chair, whioh should
have been filled by the last legislature,
are coming into promineoe rather lively.
We bear of Uov.-eleot T.T.Qeer, Judge
S. A. Lowell, O. W. Fulton, Binger Her
mann and several others. To this list
may properly bs added the name of Joe
Simon. It is now a oertainty that Joe is
capable ot getting almost anything that
be wants, bo if some cne would whisper
gently in his ear that he waa wanted for
senator, he would make a strong fight,
Another name could be added to the list
which would be a formidable opponent
for them, that name is W. It. Ellis. He
has served in congress for three terms,
and bas proven himself to be an earnest
worker for bis constituents and a loyal
republican, so it would not be displeas- steamboats, ferry-boats, toll-bridges and
ing to a great number of people of the toll-roads, telegraph, express and lnsur
state to be represented in the senate by anae companies, lotteries, theaters and
him. There are also several more very
prominent candidates, and chances are
there will be new ones sprung on tbe
people every few days until winter. An-
telope Herald. -
The Oregonian unwittingly gives a fair
example of the manner in which voters
stayed at home on eleotion day. In six
ooonties wbiob it names McKinley got
7,413 votes, while Oeer- received 7,020
votes, nearly 400 votes less. In tbe same
Bryan received 11,287 votes, indicating, I
not as the Oregonian says, that there was
a change, but that 4,000 silver-reform
voters stayed at borne. Times-Moan-
taineer.
We have not tbe honor of acquaint
ance with Hon. Isaac L. Patterson, of
Salem, lately appointed oolleetor of cus
tom! for tbe district ot WiUuwelW, bot
induing from the men who are kiokiog
about bis appointment he is a mighty
nice man, and we would be glad to koo"
him. Roieburg Review.

WAB REVENUES.
Oar New War Taxes Compared With Those
0f the Sixties.
The main features of this law will
haw been passed over on the present
oooasion. The greatest similarity be
tween the revenue systems of that war
and of this is in the stamp taxes. Nearly
all the business documents formerly sab-
jeot to duty have been included in thp
present act. thouch in mftnv nnnna At
lower rates than before, and ft few addi-
lions have been made. But instead of
the few articles taxed under schedule B,
the excise formerly aDDlied to a Ions lint
of manufactures and other products, in
cluding ruoh arttoles ot oommon use as
coal and oil, gas, candles, ground ooffee
and spices ,ootton, sugar and confeotion
ery, obocolate and coooa, salt, slaugh
tered animals, furniture, umbrellas and
photographs; and the rates are high
enough to make a decided differenoe in
retail prices. . Over against the . business
taxes now imposed upon a few ocouoa-
tions must be set a long list ot corpora-
tions which were formerly taxed from 1
to 5 per cent on their gross reoeipts, and
a still longer list of occupations reached
by means of lioenae taxes. Thus the lax
on trosa receipts applied to railroads,
museums, while the liuensetaxea applied
under the act ot 1861 not merely to tbe
ooouoatlons previously enumerated, but
also to every other trade, business and
profession. Ia addition to the tax on
legaoloe, there was a succession tax ap
plying to real estate. Finally, besides
the inoome tax, there was a whole sys-
tern of direot-oonsumplioa takes on suoh
rtiolas of pleasure and luxury as yaohts,
oarriages, pianos, private billiard tables,
gold and silver plate, and watabea,
It bas been said thai "contemporary
budgetary history makes oo like exhibit
of undpened resources and. unemployed
nowers". The new law serves rather
to emphasize Ibis statement than other
wise, by showing tbali even ia war it ia
not neoesssry to tax. everything taxable,
or even everything whioh might easily
bear taxing. Tbe taxes, imposed, are
oertainty not. .excessive., and it ia quite
possible that soma . portions of tbs act
will bs found so satisfactory that it will
be advisable to retaio tbsm as permanent
source of revenue in time of peace, to
take the plaoe ot the inoome tax, whioh
bas been deolared unconstitutional,

WEEKLY
CROP REPORT.
Portland, Ore,, Monday, June 27,
1898. Sinoe Wednesday fair weather has '
prevailed over Oregon. Tbe fsbowery
weather was of longer duration than
usual; it has ceased , and no injurious
effeots will result. A very small amount
of bay bad been out, whioh was injured
to some extent. In some localities clover
lodged to a limited extent. The rains
delayed baying; as a rule, the grass was
improved and no commercial damage
ensues. Haying is now In aotive opera
tion; the reports indioate a very large
crop and of excellent quality. Royal
Ann oberries are ripe; the rains oaused
some to split, but in the total crop the
injured ones will cot be observable.
There are a few reports from tbe lower
lands of tbe Willamette valley that the
wheat crop has not a healthy color; this,
as a rule, prevails during wet periods,
and it quickly passes away with tbe ad
vent ot clear, warm weather. The fall
sown wheat, is in perfect condition in
every portion of the state; spring-sown
wheat promises to be nearly aa good as
fall-sown. Barley, rye and oats are
equally as good as wheat. The fruit
crop ia heavier than ever before. Orch
ards are tborougbly cultivated, spraying
has been more general than usual, end
the trees are healthy, Canneries are be
ing constructed in every locality to han
dle tbe large fruit surplus that is now
expected. Strawberries are yet plenti
ful, but their season ia passing. Rasp
berries and cherries are now in the
height of their season. There is no im
provement in the hop crop; tbe missing
hills are evidently dead. Hills that are
growing are most satisfaotory. Hop lice
have oomtnenoed, to make their appear
anoe. On June 1st tbe statistician of
th9 Bgrl0nuar(l department, Washing-
ton, D. 0.. states in the "Crop Circular
for June, 1898," that tbs spring wheat
acreage in Oregon baa been increased 5
per oeot, and that its condition is 101;
tbe winter wheat has under "condition"
107. Hiuoe tbe first, ot the montb, the
condition bas improved.
Tbe summer type of weather condi
tions bas not yet made its appearanoe.
Tbe reports Ibis morning give Indications
of its early approach; with it will corns
settled fair weather, and possibly bot
winds east ot the Ceaoadea.
Extracts from correspondents' reports
are given Ibis week, in order that tbs
reader may judge for himself tbe flatter
ing orop oonditions which prevail.
WBATUIK.
Tbe temperature for the week averaged
GO deg., whioh was 2 deg. lower than tbe
preoeding week and also fur tbe corre
sponding wet'k of last year. The high
est temperature during the week was HO

Friday. The total rainfall for tbe week
