The following review of the present
condition of the hoD trade on the
Pacific Coast, from the Telegram, indi
otes a more successful year for that
industry in Oregon than has for sev
eral months been anticipated or
prophesied.
Hops are being received in consider
able numbers at the local hop offices
and without exception they are of al
most perfect quality. The fact that
Oregon has this yeaY raised a super
ior crop becomes more evident every
day and when the samples reach the
Eastern and foreign dealers they are
sure to create a favorable impression
It is also evident from the picking
and baling returns received that the
crop in size will fall under the esti
mates made but a short time ago. The

Lee, of Multnomah County.
Miller, of Linn County.
A. C. Marsters, of Douglas County.
B. R. Butler, of Gilliam County.

Nicholas Lontrsworth says that the
Presidential contest this rear is "a
case of Taft standing on his record
and Bryan running away from his."
One of the truest and most compre
hensive outlines of the situation that
has yet been made.
PORTLAND. Sept 21. -It was an

According to Senntor Beveridge, Mr.
Bryan has never handled a single for
eign problem, he has governed no
Phillipines, regenerated no Cuba, built
no canal, avoided no alien danger,
saved us from no threatened peril. In
domestic affairs, Mr. Bryan has writ
ten uotone law, administered not a
Ingle department advised uo presi
dentwhile lecturing at all. He is a
preacher of righteousness but n t an
administrator of affairs. Mr. Bryan
is an Aaron, not a Moses; a Heury,
but not a Washington; a Wendell
Phillips, but not an Abraham Lincoln.
Albany H'-rald.
Within the past week several of the
leading Demouratla papers of Oregon
bave confidently doelured that the
"labor vote" will go to Mr. Brynn in
the November election. The day of
voting by the sheep herding method
Is, however, a thing of the past, and It
Is extremely doubtful that the "labor
rote" will go en masse to any one can
didate A portion of it will go to one
candidate and a portion to the other,
while still other votes from the ranks
of the laboring men will be distributed
among the candidates of the minor
parties. One thing is reasonably cer
tain, however. Whichever way the
vote of the average laboring mm Is
cast It will be cast according to the
dlctaU-s of bis individual judgment
and not according to the Instructions
of the man who may chamv to l at

Those worthies of Portland whose
names were so ruthlessly dragged out
for public tcspectlon by the Oregon Ian
of yesterday's lsue, as "fiopiers"
from the Democratic party, are now
probably In an admirable condition
to jjlve a correct Imitation of what the
learned profeor has called "the
physical manifcHtations of Impotent
rage." Certain esteemed periodical
of Democratic persuasion are no doubt
in much the same condition. They
bave been demanding "Dames, names"
ever since the first Intimation of fraud
In registration was made thre months
ago. Now they bave got what they
demanded. Never was a prayer more
unexpectedly or more literally
