"Many a load of hops is
equal in value to a $300 bill,"
says a Portland paper. And
the statment convicts the writer
of total ignorance of hops. A
set of four Alaskan dogs could
draw a $500 load of hops at pres
ent prices. A man driving a
two-horse team through Inde
pendence with only $500 worth
nf hons would be a subiect of
derision. A load equal in value
to $1000 is a light one indeed.
For the past three weeks there
has been a procession of teams
moving in tlffe direction of the
Southern Pacific warehouse here
with hops. A team draws from
20 to 30, sometimes 35 bales
The bales average in the neig h
borhood of 200 pounds. At 30
cents, a bale is equal in value to
$60; a load of 20 bales, to $1200;
a load of 25 bales, $1500; a load
of 30 bales, $1800, and 35 bales.

"I have nothing to take back,
I have nothing to withdraw of
the things that I have said
against the methods pursued to
advance bis candidacy. It was
a plain and deliberate attempt J
to deceive the party. The New!
York platform was vague and
purposely so, because the advo
cates of Judge Parker were try
ing to secure votes from among
the people who would have op
posed his views had they known
them. The nomination
was secured, therefore, by crook

The labor plank as prepared by
Judge Parker's friends on the
