A DISHONEST SCHEUK. The Tlme-iUouoifr says: "But, are fortiori woolen goods as much of necessity as sugar, one of the constlt uent elements of every human being? V. think not. It has been proved that the United States can manufacture as cheaply the fabrics which are necessary for pro tection against tne inclemency ot the sea sons as England, and is it not advisable, al conditions being equal, that we give the preference to our own citizens and not take the bread oat of the mouths American laborers and give it to those ol foreign nations, who have no Interest 1 the perpetuity of our Institutions or form of government? Protection is simply what it says, and not prohibition." Woolen goods are a greater necessity than suear. Poor families, rand they are numerous throughout the length and breath of our country ,) find by experience that woolen goods are a far greater ne. cessity than sugar. They are necessary to life and health, while sugar can largely be dispensed with. Then why is it that protectionists hasten to give the people free sugar, and at the same ti.ne increase the average duty on woolen goods from 67 to 91 per cent? There is but one reason for this and no one knows It better than theJ.lonTir. That reason was stated In these columns before. The JIcKinley bill was constructed on purely a partisan and sectional basis. Our cotemporary gives the whole case of protectionism away by 6aying that the United States can man ufacture as cheaply the fabrics which ore necessary for protection against the in clemency of the seasons as England. Then in the name of common sense and decency, in the name of the great body of the con sumers of the country, why did McKlnley increase the already enormous duty of 6S per cent on woolen goods to 91 per cent. It was not necessary topretection,for, if it costs a6 much to make woolen goods in England as here, how can English goods be shipped here, pkylng freight, insurance, interest, and oilier charges, and then sold In competition with our own products. It is absurd to think to. Even under an average dulyoffi? percent.English woolen goods were shipped into this country dur tnF the vear ended lune 30, 1SS0, to the amount of $52,681,48356 worth. Upon these goods the duty in dollars and cents was $35,373.3.7.5- The 'people in this country .who bought and used these goods paid the enormous tax of $35.37J37-5-The tax paid by those who used the home produced goods would amount to ten times the above amount, and this tax went into the pockets of the protected classes. Of course no American citizen would refuse to give preference to our own citizens all conditions being equal. But every patri otic Amerlcan'should resent the scheme to tax him 47 percent on nearly every thing he eats and wears in order to make these conditions equal. This proposition o! the MomilahtTcr Is a grevious insult to every laboring man In the country. Tax the consumer 40 to 100 per cent to make con ditions equal Jbetween the foreign and home manufacturer and then have the un abashed audacity to ask the consumer to prefer the home manufacturer. There is not the semblance of honesty or fair deal ing in such a scheme. A. man : Would the encouragement of the dairy Industry help to build up the country? would it bring more capital here', would there be more readv sale for land? E, man: Yes sir, as soon as you demon strate what a model dairy will do, you have also at the same time demonstrated what thousand of eastern people want In formation about, and ask every day. Eastern people know that Oregon is a great grain producing country but most of these people must be taught that they can make a good living on 50 acres or less, not on 200 rr 300 acres. Now my friends, here is a great point. A great many can buy 50 acies and pay fo it but not 200 or 300 acres. Suppose we havr a thousand families today with money enough to buy 50 acres of land. Could you place them and arrange it so that they could make n good living? No sir, you could, not they would he dissapointed as a great many have been before them and they ill tell it in letters to ll.er fam. iliesand friends at home. But on the other hand friends, if you will establish a model dairy, show people how to carry such a busi' ness on from the one end to the other, assist all new comers wilh good advice and every in formation you w ill accomplish a great deal 01 noble work. Lay aside small differences in politics and unite together and it ill prove to be a wonderful enterprise for Albany and f-r Linn County and bring more linn one hundred fold on investment.

For Albany ar.d Linn county A dairy Association and model Dairy Farm. An Albany man and an eastern man discuss the above subject. Albany man: What Is a model dairy? Eastern man: A model dairy is such a dairy as we would like to see cstablised in great numbers all through the Willamette valley taking the place of our unprofitable wheat growing. A. man: Mow many pounds of butter will a good dairy cow produce in a year? E. man: 200 or 300 pounds and too acres in good cultivation would raise food enough to keep 50 cows the year round. A. man: How much income could be calculated on from a model dairy? E. man: A well appointed dairy farm, well mamged in the Willamette valley would pay 10 per cent at least on invest ment while our wheat farms on the aver, age do not pay any interest. A. man : Would a dairy tann benefit the land or be hard on the land? K. man: It is a very Important question you have touched upon here," my friend, because it is one of the greatest drawbacks to grain growing and grain selling that It is actual wholesale robbery of the soil. Wc find therefore, also, even in this fertile valley, that a continuation of wheat grow ing and wheat selling l a sure road to de struction of our beautiful land. It has come to pass In many places that half of the cultivated lands have to be summer fallowed eery year in order to insure a good crop. Dairy farming with rotation of crops would dc away with the summer fallow and a fill! crop on every acre can be raised. A. man: How do you account for It that the selling of butter would not impoverish the land ? E. man: Butter takes away only ele ments which we have In abundance in the nlr and In the water, and cost us only a trifle to bring to our land, while wheal takes away the very costliest of plant food. A. man: Is the Willamette valley well adapted to butter production? E. man: Yes, you can travel through the United Siales and E,uope and you v ill find '.hat you have almost In every respect the finest country for establishing a very prosperous dairy Industry, Keep it iu your mind that Allen Bros pro ose keeping the kind of groceries the public mactis. 1 heir stuck is a tine one- A fiue stock of lace curtains for 9) centB tc.SlO to suit the customer, at Fortiniler & Irving's.
