THE ..CONDON CLOBE. T-IURSDAY, Sptembr 21,1399. Til E OFFICIAL PAPER OF CILUAM COUNTY. OREGON. THE TRUST CONFERENCE. Tli trint confaronca hiiM in Chi- eif Inst week was hardly up to expectations in point of attendance nntl interest. Whether the meet i:v will h ive any preceptible effect on the future attitude of the gov eminent towards the trust remains to be seen. To the casual reader of the proceedings it would appear that the ir,reat multiplicity of views presented, for and against combina tions of capital in the industrial world will tend to mystify people and render the whole question even more complicated than it has been rather than furnish any practical solution of tho problem. "Joint discussions" of any question, relig ious, political, social or economic rarely pay for the oratorical energy expended. People who listen gen erally accept the arguments of the speaker. who advocates their own views, and in this instance it would seem that all comers could be suit ed. Editor Rosewater, of the Omaha Bee, advocated the revision of the federal constitution as the only practical way to combat the trusts and it is probable that the more the question is studied the more anti-trust people will come to that belief. When Mark Hanna talks about "our moral obligations to the civil ized world" there are some people who are so ill bred as to snicker audibly. Others even giggle out loud. The French council of ministers have done what they could to wipe out the latest blot on French civili zation in pardoning Dreyfus but the world will not soon forget the shame of French court martials. The report of the grand jury with reference to the county poor is cer tainly gratifying. Not many coun ties the size of Gilliam, are entirely devoid of paupers and such a con dition speaks volumes for grand old Gilliam as a place to live. The seventh judicial district is fortunate in having for judge a man who looks to the people's in terest in the transaction of court business. Jugde Bradshaw allows no foolishness in his court but keeps business moving early and late. ''Cjjrt v ejk" in his district is no holiday seasoa for attorneys and jurors. RAISE MORE PORK. "Another full carload of hams, bacon and lard arrived last week at Colfax from Omaha. These products the merchants will sell to farmers in the Palouse country, and the money paid out for them will be a direct aud everlasting loss to this section. "This means that the farmers in the Palouse are paying the Missou ri or the Iowa farmer for his corn, for his labor of feeding it to the hogs, his profit, the profit of the stock buyer who ships the stock to Omaha, the railroad charges from the farm to Omaha, the cost of . packing and the packer's profit, the freight charges from Omaha to Colfax and the profits of the jobber and the retailer. "This is the best farming and stock country on earth, and at a time when more or less wheat damaged by rains will be unsala ble, and fit only to be fed to stock "How long will this piece of ex travagance continue? How long must we see train loads of pork products, eggs, poultry butter and cheese coming 2000 miles or more over plains and mountains, and millions of dollars which ought to be kept at home, Bent east to pay for these products which should be produced on our own fertile soil." Spokesman-Review, "This is indeed an old folly, and exists all over the coast, but it is one that will probably not be speedily corrected. It appears to be a waste to ship food half way across the continent that could as well be raised here, and in fact it is a waste for farmers to buy hog pro ducts from abroad if they can pro duce them as readily at home. But the farmer is not wholly to blame for our markets not being supplied with domestic hams etc. The consumers are partially at fault for not being sufliciently sec tional to prefer home products to things imported. For instance, two fine hams, one a home product and the other from Chicago or St. Louis, may be offered to the pur chaser, and nine times out often he will select the imported one even if he has to pay more for it, simply because it came from abroad. When consumers demand home products and give them a prefer ence over all others, producers will see to it that the folly of shipping meats from the Mississippi valley no longer exists. When people get the idea in their heads that any thing produced at home is better than that coming from abroad, and will have none other than home products, the producer will see to it that their demands are supplied, and not till then will we erase im porting." Times-Mountaineer. Many Gilliam county farmers haul their wheat more than 50 miles to the railroad and sell it for less than 50 cents a bushel. They come home and go to their local dealers and pay from 12 to 15 cents a pound tor eastern bacon. It would seem that they could make money by feeding that same wheat to hogs and save freight both ways. Oregon people would buy home made bacon as , readily as they do the eastern article if it was put up in proper shape, but the trouble with much of it is that it does not look good. Wheat fed bacon is of better quality than that fed on corn and there is less risk of get ting diseased meat from western ranches than from eastern feed yards; but until western farmers learn to take the trouble to trim and cure their bacon properly and give it an inviting rather than a repulsive appearance thec6nsumer will continue to patronize the meat trust. It is not so much the gross wealth that a country produces that makes its people prosperous as it is the net profits which they keep at home; and there is no question but that the people of this country could make a big saving on meats if they would go at it ri ght. Puritanical prudery is silly and senseless. Those who affect it are the weakest and most susceptibl e of the human race. It is ridiculous to pretend to know nothing of the shame and bestiality that are all a- round ua. We should know and do know that there are loathsome, poisonous snake3 and hideous rep tiles in the rotting, noisome vegeta tion in the marshes, and that toads and wriggling things hop and crawl about in caves and hidden places. We dread a visit to such places. We do not envy the man who goes among these things for scientific purposes. We are prone to shrink from those who love to think, read and talk of these things We believe that any subject what ever can be written about, with propriety and with profit, by the proper person in the proper place and at the proper time.

Such tale of crimes and histories of horrors are not gxd reading for the masses and, strange to say, those, both men and women, who have the rep utation of being prudes, not being able to speak of a naked fact or re fer to the leg of a table without showing evident embarrassment are the greatest devourers of this class of literature, while the men and women who are wise in expert ence, and healthy in intellect from that wisdom, are in no way attract ed by it. The fool is a knave not yet developed, while the prude is a yellow journalist in embryo. Last Oregonian. LONE ROCK. The weather ia delightful. P. L. Ham ami J. M.
