A warchouuman on '.he Wlllamettee
is making $300 a day the past month by
advance 011 wheat alone. Thit It one of
the commercial facu oi a republican ad
ministration. There are not many men
who mide much by advances on grain or
anything else under the Cleveland adrrMn-
Istration. This will be an unpalatable
statement to democrats, but there is noth
ing unpalatable about the way farm pro
ducts generally have advanced. It Is no'
-wheat alone that has gone up. That
would be explained by hhort crops in
France, India and Russia. But short crops
do not explain the advance In oats, corn
barley and all alone the line of produce
Meats have gone up and before the year is
over wool win be puttv apt to advance
Sheep are advancing and the clip of 1S91
will be apt to feel the impulse. Feed on
the great ranges has run down and flocks
will be more prohtable. All along the
line the farmer begins to led encouraged
Capital Journal.
Doel the Journal undertake to say that
the advance In the price of wheat has re
sulted as the effect of Increasing the duty
on that article from 10 to 25 cents a bushel?
It dare not say so. It would be Impossi
ble to increase the price of wheat by in -creasing
the dut on Imported wheat. We
already raise more wheat Id this country
than can be consumed here, hence the
market for wheat Is fixed In Liverpool.
Before McKlnley increased the duty on
wheat there were imported but 115531
bjshels for the year ending June 30, 1SS9.
So, all this gush about "a commercial fact
of a republican administration" Is the
sheerest tomfoolery. The farmer can not
be protected on wheat bv any duty large
or small.
The same may be said of oats of Arhich
for the year lSSg'there were imported but
32,324 bushels. The increase of the duty
from 10 to 15 cents per bushel had noth
ing to do with the advance In the price of
oats this spring. The same is true of corn.
Duiing the ) ear iSSrthere were imported
23SS bushels of corn. Mow could increas
ing the duty from 10 to 15 cents enable the
producer to get a fairer price this year
than last year. The truth is short crops is
the real cause of the advance in the price
of wheat,corn and oats. The same is true
of meats. None of these articles are im
ported in any considerable auantlty,hence
protection Is Jnjpefatlve.
CHsEK ANDUALLi
The republican party is splendidly or
ganized for business, as a political organi
zation. It was able to agree on a tariff
bill and on a silver bill. It passed all the
principal measures to which It was pledged.
Ihe billion-dollar congress was also a bus
iness congress. The result of its labors
will set the wheels of commerce humming.
Already the producer is smiling at the in
creased return of his laborsand the laborer
for hire is locking up with a more hopeful
expression. Capital Journal.
Indeed, it is. The result of the scheme
of Dudley's Blocks-of-Five arrangement
oiled up a It was by the $400,000 raised
by the goody goody Wanamaker.to carry
the election In Indiana and New York
shows that it was "splendidly organized
for business, as a political organization."
'The bi!llon dollar congress was a busi
ness congress." Indeed, it was. It wasted
one hundred million dollars, the hard
earnings of the taxpayers of the people.
The '-laborer for hire Is looking up with
a more hopeful expression." This is rich.
When the associated press brings us news
daily of strikes all over the land aud the
militia and Pinkerton detectives called out
to drive labor people into submission ft is
refreshing indeed to be nonchalantly tol(
the 'laborcv 1 kc!1'"? UP w!th ItlPr?
hopefid expression."
'WOKMY.'
Will ihe Democrat as readily publish our
denhl that we are a usurer and would-be
whiskey seller, but on the contrary for the
past ciht years hac opposed the violation of
these taws verv vigorously!" A crinive..i lie
Jorm Journal.
Of course we will. The Democrat made
none of these charges, and hence leaves the
Woodbarn Inilepcndcnt, that did make them
to prove them or back down, Hut is not the
Journal asking agoO;l deal of the Democrat
in view of the way it treated the latter some
time neo? It said, without the semblmce of a
foundation upon which to predicate such a
remark, that the Democrat was trying to
discredit the alliance and sending forth the
inference that there was dissension. We
showed then conclusively that it had no reason
for making such a statement and asked it to
publish our uenial, but it does r.ot appear that
it had Ihe fairness 10 do it. Will il do so now?
Sot xu Advicb. It pays to get the
best; even Shakespeare admitted that.
In thin connection it may be remarked
that W It tirnliam has just received an
elegant line of suitings for the spring and
summer, never surpassed in an Albany
market. They are the best to be de
tained, as an inspection will bIiow, and
Mr (iraluim is prepared to make them

Thousands of acres of the best agricultural
lands in the Webfoot country that have been
tilled are today lying idle and growing up to
weeds. 1 hey were mortgaged lands. 1 heir
original owners mortgaged them, and. being
unable to meet the indebtedness thus incurred
by the production and sale of cereal crops,
they suffered the inevitable Kansas result a
foreclosure. And then they came 10 Eastern
Oregon where they have since pro'rered. The
Willamette valley is doubtless one of the best
agricultural recionson tilt face of the earth
but it is heavily mortgaged all the same, and
in that respect its situation is very much akin
to the best agricultural districts in the middle
west, Prineville AVttn.
There is about as much falsehood in the above
as can be crowded into that many slines. There
are no thousands nor any acres that have been
tilled now lying idle and growing up in weeds
because they had been mortgaged. The writer
of the above evidently set out to see how big
a falsehood he could pen and print and the
result shows that he has prodigious powers in
that line. Let us look into facts. At the
March terra of the circuit for Linn county
there were over 1 10 rases on Ihe docket
Four only of these were foreclosure suits. At
the October term 1 890 then were loS ca
four of which were foreclosures.
At the March term 1890 there were 75 cases
on the docket and only one foreclosure suit.
At the October term 1SS9 there were 7S cases
on the docket only one of which was a fore
closure suit. At the Mrch term ESS9 there
were 85 cases 7 of which were foreclosure
suits. Here we have a showing on the sub
ject of foreclosure of mortgages in Linn county
for the last two years with the following result:
Whole number of cases docketed 461 .
Whole nunvrer of foreclosure suits 17.
What agricultural county in the United
States can make such a showing? It would
only be just and honorable on the part of the
Piineville Kews to make the amende honorable
by correcting its slanderous statement about the
Willamette valley.
