THE COHDOll GLOBE FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 21, 189. THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF GILLIAM COUNTY. OREGON. BUY AT HOME. Too much money is sent out of this section' for the necessities of life that could be bought here at the same prices and the money kept at home. It isn't much won der that we are seeing hard times, when it is considered that there is a continual stream of money sent to the East for nearly everything1 that is needed by the farmer, stockman and mechanic. Money thus sent out of the country never J finds its way back again, as would j be the case if spent with our home ; merchants. It goeB to St. Louis,: Chicago or some other city in the j east, and none of it stays here to j pay the taxes, to build houses, churches and schools, to keep me- i chanies, clerks and laborers at j work, or to in any mannerassiet in j the advancement of the com muni- i ty's interests. There is a wrong principle and a decided injury back of this. The local merchant is here to bear his share of the burdens of local and county government; he ; is here to furnish the means to keep consuming laborers employed, he is here to help the farmer ana carry his credit when he is pinched; he is here to buy the produce of the farm, the dairy, the garden and the orchard, he is one of a great crowd that goes to make up a prosperous section of country, and he the home merchant is entitled to home patronage. 'Even if prices for distant goods are a little cheap er, by the time postage, expressage and freight on the goods is paid, it brings the prices up to about the same as at home. The nearer home a man can and will trade the better. Your home merchant is responsible and can rectify any mistakes that may occur. You can see him as often as you please; he won't press you in misfortune or distress; he is your friend every day in the year as well as the day you buy from him; he is your neighbor and his interests are yours. When the oily tongued agent for those distant houses comes along, tell him you have merchants right here at home who keep better goods than he carries and that you propose to keep your money circulating at home. That is a good maxim to adopt for every other line of trade as well. The necessity of restricting for eign immigration is strongly por trayed by census statistics just is sued which show that there are 23. 440 white convicts in the peniten tiaries of the United States who know where they were born. Of these 14,165 are natives of this country and 14,275 were born abroad. Similar statistics show that 51 per cent of the inmates of the poorhouses in the United States are foreign born and 24 per cent of benevolent institutions such as in sane, deaf and dumb and idiotic asylums. These statistics are used to justify and sustain the rigorous inspection that is now being made of all immigrants. A number of Chinese merchants of Portland are preparing to go to Mexico, and they anticipate that within a few months there will be a general exodus from this coast to that country. The governments of Mexico and China have just enter ed into a new treaty which will prove highly advantageous to the coolie laborers. Under its provis ions Chinese will be allowed to enter Mexico in any number, grants of land will be furnished them, and other inducements offered to secure such class of immigrants. We wish every Chinaman in Oregon would go to either Mexico or back home to China and "die for his country." : A dispatch from Klamath Falls says: Geo. Kelly and W. T. Butch er, employed by Klamath county to expert the records for ten years back, filed their report last week. Mart Childers, an ex-sheriff, now residing at Salem, was found to be $1,614.40 short in fees collected tinder the 33 per cent additional fee statute, declared illegal by the supreme court. .Hewasalso $284. 58 short from other moneys collect ed. E. W. Gowen, an ex-sheriff, is short $248. and A. L. Leavitt, pres ent county clerk, $1,169 short under the 33J percent law. W, E. Howe, ex-county treasurer, who is now in jail, is short $8,160.78. According to the records of the Chicago market, the highest price for wheat since 1880 was in Sep temher, 1888, $2. The lowest price in the same year was 71 18 cents ia April. The highest price given above it by no means the highest on record, wheat having gone as Lighas $2.85 per cental (100 lbs) faKsr IS67. Salem Independent: The Ore gonian. for a wonder, seems to favor the proposition to have the United States senators elected by a direct vote of the people. When they agree to submit an amendment to the constitution on this question, it is better to go a little further and allow the: people to vote ' on its abolition altogether." It must soon come to that, anyway, and there is nothing to be gained by making two bites of a cherry. It is a healthy sign that the tide of travel of the immigrant class has turned the other way, and that for once the gates of Castle Garden swing outwards to permit the Slavs and Italians to return to whence they came. Many of them have left California, and the iron regions of Pennsylvania also report a heavy exodus. The American people will rejoice to know that this class of foreigners is leaving us, and will have no objections to make against a million or two more getting an effective dose of homesickness. The American market is the best in the world. The total con sumption of goods in the United States amounts in value to $11. 605,000,000 a year, while the total amount purchased by all other countries of the world is only $7, 569,000,000, so that our own mar ket is worth to us over $4,000,000,- 000 more than all the markets of the world to which we can possibly have access. ' ". The money-lending industry has been one of the chief industries of this country. It is now nearly dead and we hope to see its remains finally interred. It has done more to put the producers and workers in their present pickle than any other one thing. If there were no laws for the collection of debts there would be no credit system and barely any money lending. East Oregonian. j The Tillamook Advocate tells of a farmer of that county who has made $6,000 raising hens and sell ing eggs in San Francisco. This farmer had no money at all to start with only his industrious hands and good horse sense. The farmers all over Oregon must raise more hens, hogs, etc. They must market their grain in the hog pen and the chicken yard.- A , newspaper with evidence of substantial support in its pages speaks volumes for a town. The fact that every trade seeker has an advertisement in its columns proves that the people are up with the times and favorably impresses the stranger into whose hands it chances to fall . ; The printers of the United States have hailed with joy the order of the government authorities setting September 30th as the date when the government printing office would cease printing envelopes. This is an abuse which has been carried on by the government for years, and should have been abol ished long ago. ;. There are several ways to run a newspaper, but the best way is told in the following: A western editor once invited correspondence as to the best way to conduct his paper, and the man who hit the nail squarely on the head, ' replied anonymously, on a postal card: "Run it as you d d please." Valley Transcript: Less wheat and more hogs and cattle would prove a blessing to this country. There is too much eastern canned beef, tod many distant cured hams, and too many buckets of foreign lard in this country to make the people financially happy. The other dav a New York min ister asserted that there are more divorces in a vear in the sintrlecitv of Chicago than in all of the South ern states east oi tne Mississippi river. .,'.,-. . Twentv-eieht thousand voters have left Kansas since the dry sea son set in. Never since the drouth there in 1859 and once about 1868 has there been such a total failure of crops in that region. ; "Here comes a man whr Vppn his word," said one man. "Yes," said another, "here of late he has not been able to find any one who would take it, so he has to keep it." The world is full of nonl who never aspire above pulling some body ; down. Milwaukee Journal. A stimolant is often needed to nourish and etrrngtben the roots and , to keep the hair a natural color, ball's Hair Benewer U the best tonic for the hair. A minister once uttered a great truth when he said: No young man can make a success in life un lets he works. He cannot loaf around street corners and saloons. He must learn a trade or do some honest work, or before he is aware he will become a chronic loafer, de spised by all whom he comes in contact with. Do something, no matter how small, and you will eventually! find yourself climbing the ladder of success. There are many obstacles to be overcome, but toil, grit and endurance will help you to overcome them all. Help yourself and others will help you. This sentiment ought to be com mitted by every young man and it ought to be placed on the black board in schoolrooms for pupils to commit. Woman's Rights. ,', VT:;' The fight in Kentucky, ia over and Breckinridge is downed. Owens beats him in the district by a handsome ma jority, and Breckinridge takes his defeat philosophically and says he will support the democratic nominee. The fight is a peculiar one in many respects, the most striking of which is that the women of the district took sides with their sister as against their betrayer. In this re spect the case is decidedly unique. It has been truly said thousands of times that a man may be guilty of offenses against morality and nothing will be thought of it; but a woman who once steps aside is condemned forever. As a great Irish orator put it, "Virtue, like an umbrella, once lost is gone forever." This is preeminently true. The man is forgiven, the woman damned for all eternity. The worst is that however much the men might be disposed to lift her up and reclaim her, the women are her judges and executioners. Woman has the correction of this evil in her own hands, ' and when she treats both parties to an offense as she does the woman there will be less of it. Breckinridge's defeat was due to the women of Kentucky, and what they have accomplished there at the polls, when they could not vote, they can also accomplish at the social bar, where they can.' When women take the stand they have in Kentucky there will be fewer Breckinridges, and surely it is high time that they refuse longer to submit to the one-sided judgment of society that dis tinguishes between the offenses against the moral code on account of sex. The women of Kentucky have made a move in the right direction, and they should cultivate the habit. Dalles Chronicle. Card of Thanks. We wish to thank the kind friends of Condon and Fossil for their kindness and spmpathy shown us in our late sad bereavement. While it did not lessen our grief it helped us to bear it more patiently, and their kindness will never be forgotten. David and Mary Hamilton and Family. Fossil, Or., Sept. 14th. A small, wicked and shrewd youth, passing by the residence on Sixteenth street, in Portland, of a lady whom he knew had some domestic troubles, said : "O, ma'am, if you'll give me a quarter, I'll tell you where I saw your husband a little while ago." "Here's the quarter; where w as it?" she asked. "In the post office ma'am." And he was our of sight in twenty seconds. If you have sick or nervous headache, take Ayer's Carthartic Pills. They will cleanse the stomach, restore healthy action to the digestive organs, remove effete matter (the presence of which de presses the nerves and brain), and thus give speedy relief. Sufferers from dyspepsia have only themselves to blame if they fail to test the wonderful curative qnalities of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. In purifying the blood, this medicine strengthens every organ of the body, and even the most a bilged stomach is soon restored to healthy action. Stock Inspector's Deputies.
