    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. But there

is a certain portion of the publio

all that is vulgar, degrading, ami
pernicious and publishes to th
millions these terrible and tragic
tales of disease, drink, divorce an
death, describing in detail the sac
happenings in Bociety of scandals.
sin, shame and suicide. 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.
