'v(ood jivcr Slacier. A Good Wife fVNxN fS fl IIOODKIVKK. Oil. OCT. 21, Ifttt. j " THE COSUESTED SEX ATE. j Time was when thisnoveniment w:ij run on the principle that t lo in.-j.ri t- J ruled. That time seems to have nassetl 1 In the U.S. senate neither majority i nor minority rules. The minority ean't j an.i tll iii.'iioritv won't Uhuo till' ! minority will not allow It. The ooun try is tiretl of listening to excuses based on the "courtesy of the senate" and immemorial custom. Under the pres ent rules uo bill out pas that is np PoshhI by a determined minority. Tlie tariff laws canuot U nltered, no pen. itn legislation can Ins had, and no no- j tionof any kind ean ho jierformed if; the minority objects. The senate has j heretofore lieen classed as a law-making bodv, but if it cannot make laws to govern itself there is little hope of it making laws to govern the country. The trouble with the senate Is that it has gotteu to be a battle ground for p. litieal supremacy, where the rights and demands of the people are ignored and the good of party alone is kept in sight. The repeal of the Sherman bill is not a political question, and republican and democrat would unite to adopt a set ot rules by which the majority could gov ern were it not that these rules would prevent filibustering on matters that are political. The republicans being in the minority, d not like to tie them selves to the doctrine tliat the majority rules, and the democrats, fearing the time when they will be in the minor ity, also hold aloof. In the meanwhile the senate is convincing the people of iU uselessness and sowing the seeds that will be harvested in a political revolution. The country is tired, and the senate will find that if it will not shoot it must give up the gun. A BIT OF THE FUTURE. We are pleased to note that thou sands of young orchard trees arc being planted here this fall. In the near fu ture our fruit shipments will increase -very rapidly as the young orchards now planted come into bearing, and the iu erease in yield will continue steadily until the whole valley is, what it shoui be, an orchard. While our soil is of nearly all varieties, most of it is suited for orchard lands and will eventually be utilized for that purpose. population will then be is a conundrum that beats the beans in a jar or seeds in the pumpkin all hollow. At present Hood river valley contains a popula tion of, in round numliers, 2000, and jret the valley is practically unsettled and uuimproved. In a few year, when set to orchards, the valley will have a larger population than Wasco county now has, and it will ship products of carefully attonds to tho small economics of hold, and naturally desires to socuvo as much for every dollsr.

(Jrantrc and Englishmen have liouglit a allium organizations have attended to 1 mine in Montana, paying one million something else than farming; they have beeu worked, to use the parlance of the day, by journeyman farmers, who for political purposes, farmed the farmers. These organizations, as a rule, attended to everything except agriculture. Many Hmihla tho vnlno (if Wnsi'O CoUlltv's present Bhipments.

The upple is the fruit for this section, and it cannot be grown too numerously, for the demand is al ways greater than the supply. Of sum mer apples this is not true, perhaps, if we except tho Gravensteiu and a few choice varieties, but of the good keepers it is undoubtedly correct. SOME PR USES. An enthusiastic fruit writer of En gene lets his vivid fancy turn from the contemplation of the beauties of rural life to the hard, cold world of figures, and carried on from one simple prob lem to another he reaches the conclu sion that an acre of prunes, when the trees are in bearing, will yield 50,000 an cre along in the autumn of each year. X.et us apply a small smattering of mathematics to the gentleman's results, and so convey to the average mind that dos not realize how large a sum 0,000 is, some idea by comparison. In one acre are 100 rods, and to make the grand total each rod would have to yield $41.25. An average town lot is 0x100 feet, containing, iu round num bers, 18 rods; this set to prunes at Eu gene would yield in money $742.50, and in prunes, estimating back to mar ket price, eleven tons and a half. It is really wonderful that the events de ecribed in Lamb's "Dissertation on Boast Pig" are not re-enacted and that the torch is not applied to town prop erty. Again, with ten miles square Around our Southern Oregon town planted with prunes, the annual yield would be $384,000,000, and as there is probably ten times that amount of good prune land near Fugene, the an nual product, discarding the odd $840, 000,000 for loss by worms in tlie or chards and enthusiasts, the income would be a small matter of three bil lions of dollars. Seriously, Eugene is the center of a fine fruit country, and needs not the wild calculations of such jnen as S. A. Clarke or the vivid writer commented upon to advertise her. That which our peopie need lirst and foremost is an honest, uutluctuutiug measure of val ues. If gold is the Uet money iu the world, then the United Slates wants gold. We must have a permanent standard of debt settlement, a perma nent and unfluctuating measue of val ues and medium of exchange." As winter approaches, the average Hood Itiverite, between the financial stringency and the inaction of the sen ate, lengthens bis face, and wnlle tie mournfully rattles the three washers and a nickel in his pocket, regrets that Steele's reservation did not reach over this way a few miles further. Then we might all paint up and become, like Steele, the Alpine club and the other siwashes, "wards of the nation." Challenges the World. Dr. Jay Guy Lewis, general superin tendent of the Oregou exhibits at the world's fair, has issued the following: "Under the present system of awards some dissatisfaction has been expressed, and that each state and county may i n ii"'"!
