NATIONAL l'KOHIBITION.
Much of what Candidate Chstln says
of tl:e "old parties" U true Here
la a great deal of bumbug and clap
trap about their profeteloua and pre
tenions, aud much to lie desired in
their performances, eaya the OreKOD
Jouroal Men wbo control parties
and attend to tbe petple'a business
m nnlv mortals, and some of tbem
Dot a very hih grade of nintuls eith

tim t alcrtis of Improvement in both
parties.
Properly, cousideiiuK bis position
aa a candidate of prohibitionists, Mr,
ChaQrj regards prohibition of tbe
manufacture and sale of liquor as tbe
paramount issue, tbe one great que
tlon to be settled. It is certainly a
great and live question, but many
efforts and long experience have
shown that it caunot be made a party
or political question. The reasons
wby this is so might be found, but it
Is sufficient that it is so. Millions of
voters are opposed to the liquor t radio
"in their midst" wbo won't vote tbe
prohibition ticket in a national elec
tion. Ibis has been demonstrated
manv times, as it will be again tbii
year. Great aieas of the country
preoincts, counties, even states have
voted for prohibition, but tbe si me
men wbo did so will not vote for ua
tional prohibition. Ibis may seem
fiuilotii and contradictory, but it Is
ao, and it must be accepted as a fact,
whether we can give suUloieut reasons
for it or not.
From a sentinieutHl ot an abstraot
point of view, Mr. Cbafln is right; if
tbe liquor tralllo la a great moral wrong
and a terrible evil it should be pro
hit tod aud what is good for some
preoincts, couutlos and states should
be good for the nation; yet tbe people
will not have it this way.
Xbey prefer to deal with this ques
tlou locally, at the most by atutes,
usually by counties or Jess divisions,
no such division being willing to lm
pose prohibition upon other states or
tbe country at large. And under local
option lawstho prohibition movement
bus gained great ground and is doing
wha'i tbe prohibitionists as a party
have utterly failed to do for balf a
century. Local option does not sat
isfy Mr. Cbafln and a few others, but
it satisfies a great majority of people,
and has gone far to render a national
prohibition party almost ludicrously
needless.
Uesides, prohibition as a national
pulley is as yet Impracticable. If Mr,
Chatlu weie president under such
low be could not enforce it, even with
an army of 1,(XH),000 meu. An over
whelming majority would revolt
against It, including millions wbo are
for prohibition locally. There is lit
tle use In advocating something that
only one man out of 100 wants or is
In favor of, after a geneiatlon of dis
cussion and appeal. Temperauoe re
formers would better proceed along
pructical Hues, where tbey onu get ro
sults, us the local optloulsta ure do
ing. Mr. Child u says that a majority
should not have its own way if it Is
wrong, but the majority will not abide
by the decision of a minority, especi
ally a very small minority, as to what
is right or wrong.
.SELLING Fill' IT.
The opinion expressed by Mr. 11.
P. Davldsou, of Hood Kiver, that
dealers iu trult lost money last year
is undoubtedly oorrect, and it may be
expected that their experience wilt
make them a little cautious this year
lu loading up with supplies, though
there la nothing In the industrial sit
uation that warrauts extia caution.
The dnauolal flurry otimo luut year
just stter fruit dealeis had made their
purchases aud they were compelled to
unload at a loss. This reduced value
of fruit was not due to any change in
the supply of fru.t, but was due to
diminution of demand ocoasioued by
inability of consumers to buy. The
situatiou was au uiiiihuuI one, arlect
lng all Jinarkets, though .the nmiket
for perishable goods, such as fruit,
whs probably affected more thuu that
for most commodities.

ples for consumption as aver beloia.
While growers will probably not agree
to such a statement, It is quite possi
ble that tbe price of apples, like that
of many other commodities, was ex
cessive last year. Values in all lines
were high. Tbongb It would be grati
fying if apple growers could get as
high prices every year aa tbey did last
season, sucb good fortune 1 not to be

Oregoniau.
In defiance of all tbe acknowledged
laws of nature in regard to horticul
ture and fruit growing, a plum tree,
thiifty and loaded with fruit, stands
wedged iu on all sides in tbe back
yard of Tompkins Hros. cigar store.
Tbe brick wall of tbe Hood Kiver
Banking and Trust company's build
ing overshadows it on one side, while
that of Frank A. Cram Imprisons it
on the other aud in front tbe cigar
store building jama into Its vitals. A
uarrow outlet at tbe back allows due
dejected limb to reacb out for rec
ognition by tbe publio, but It is
doubtful if many see it. Nevertheless
tbe plum tree, wbicb is ot the yellow
egg variety, flourishes mightily. Hear
ing its head above tbe roof ot the
store its limbs are ooveied with an
abuudaut yield of yellow fruit. Unlike
tbe flower that is "born to blush un
seen aud waste fta sweetuess on the
desert air," tbe fruit ot this plum
tree eaob year delights many mortals
with its flue flavor. Irrigated with
salt water from empty ice cream tub,
fertilized with cigar butts and spray
ed with lemonade we are informed by
the proprietor of the stoie that each
year it brings forth its abundant crop
unoared for, uusuug and unboosted.
No stories of its gieat achievemeut
bave appeared lu tbe newspupers an. I
no pictures of Its gloriousyellow fruit
have bombastically portruyed its won
derful yield. At last, however, it lias
been discovered and like tbe genius
who has been working unheralded iu
his garret tbe fruits of its modest
efforts are known.

USD IIoxcn Fruit limned on Dump.
Three hundred nnd eighty boxes of
fruit were burned on the dump at Se
attle Monday at the ordoi of tbe dep
uty state onniiuiesiouci of bortioul
tiire. One shipment of 208 boxes of
apples from Ziilab iu Toppeuisb (lis

growth. Another sbipiueut of DO
boxes from the same district was

pears from Okauugau county, on tbe
upper Columbia river, was covered
with snalo aud was wormy. ibis
makes 700 boxes of Washington fruit

than 4500 boxes of California tmit
were found scaly. Without exception
poor fruit has come from almo-it Iden
tically tho same ueighboihood as did
poor fruit a year age, indicating that
growers have not used proper precau
tion. Wenatchee aud North Yakima have
sent almost perfect fruit.

and tbe city council, work on tbe

prvseuc. ltie bridge company is also
said to have beeu iuHuenoed to sumo
extent in suspending tbe work on ac
count of there not being enough funds

Unlabel. His expected that tbe mat

"Prune growers there will do pretty

"The Iruit growers ot Oaklaud,

their output to tbe test advantage,
