There seems to be a disposition among hop growers to hold unto their product this year in the hope of realizing a better price as the season advances, as experienced hop men pronounce the quality of the crop to be the best ever obtained in Oregon. It is thought that when samples of this crop reach England, where the crop is now definitely known to be of an inferior quality, the price of the Oregon product will go skyward. ■ ■ ■ ------ Rev. Sam Jones, who often mixes his religion with politics, relieves himself thus: “I feel sorry for the democrats. The republicans have let them down in a well and pulled up the ladder. As long as the demo cratic party has leaders like Tillman and Altgeld they will have to take deck passage on the ship of state. There ain't a stateroom in any decent ship that would give them quarters. They have got to put the brains in front and couple the brains to the mouth of the party or the republi cans have a cinch on this govern ment for a hundred years.” The Rev. Sam Jones might go a step farther, and recommend live demo cratic leaders, like McLaurin of South Carolina. The assassin of President McKin ley, on trial this week for his dia bolical crime, has been convicted of murder in the first degree, and it is gratifying to note that for decency’s sake the trial was short. All that the most versatile lawyer could pos sibly say in defense of the assassin could not require much time, and if the condemned prisoner is quietly and expeditiously electrocuted, the measures taken by the law of the land will be sufficient and entirely satisfactory to the public conscience. The people ask, not only that the just sentence be quickly carried out, but that the daily papers shall re frain from disgusting the public, whose hearts are yet tender from their great sorrow, with pictures of the fiend from day to day. There is no division of opinion among right- thinking Americans as to the neces sity of making a terrible example of this wretch, lower than the lowest reptile, because his vileness is clothed in human form. “Silent ly and sadly," the dispatches in formed us, “the members of the fam ily stole into the room where the president lay dying." The nation yet shares their grief, and is in no mood to receive the disgusting de tails with accompanying kodak views of the trial of the conscienceless viper who was the instrument of their affliction. The condition of the foreign wheat supply, upon which prices in this country depend largely, are set forth in a recent issue of the Mark Lane Express. This authority declares that France, which usually produces enough for home consumption, will not raise over 300,000,060 bushels, thus making it necessary to import some 60,000,000 bushels. The yield in the territory of northwestern Europe is estimated at 396,000,000 bushels and the requirements at 604.000,000, thus leaving 268,000,000 bushels to be imported. This re quired importation is what the sur plus of the United States will be if the home needs are taken at 400,- 000,000 bushels and the surplus at 675,000,000 bushels. The Express says that the principal competitors of the United States. Egypt and India, will have nothing for export this year, while the surplus of Rus sia, Argentina, Australasia and the Balkan states will be exhausted in supplying the import needs of Italy, Austria-Hungary, China and the Spanish peninsula. This means that there will bell ready market for the entire surplus of this country, and a strong probability that the Amari- cah farmer will receive better prices. . There is a distinction between so cialism and anarchy, but many peo ple have been taught by past events that they are one and the same. This is so much the case that if we had , been traveling under the title of “so cialist” we would now hasten to change our name, because, in the fi nal analysis you will find that many an anarchist prefers to be designated by that term. It doesn't grate so harshly upon the ear. The laws of France cut off anarch ists from notoriety. Their trials are not reported in the newspapers. In case of capital punishment the ex ecution is not described and the burial place is secret. These regu lations are due to the fact that van ity is a ruling passion with anarchist assassins, and in self defense the people must strike hard at the an archists, for the anarchists are strik ing a terrible blow at the people. The law of force is the only one the assassins will heed. THE •’»»SION PI.AY. Horse Sense.

Only a year has passed since the census was taken, and yet the in - crease of population in some parts of the country is so marked as to arouse curiosity as to its extent.

Readers of the Reporter will be anx- ious to know what the circuit court did with the case of the above title, and the chief facts connected therewith. The expert examination found Mr. Rhude short in his accounts to the amount of $1539.11. For several months he has been allowed no salary by the county court, and a slight additional shortage has been found during that period. He was arrested and arraigned on Monday, and plead "Not Guilty.” Both civil and criminal charges were brought, and on the three counts bonds were asked in the sum of #4,500. This he was unable to procure, and consequently was lodged in jail. The prosecution was anxious to try the case at once, and in this county, many believing that the proper place to try a man is among his neighbors, and at less cost than taking a change of venue to an adjoining county. This was rendered impossible by the absence of County Clerk Nelson on other business in Malheur county, he being necessarily one of the principal witnesses in the case. A subprvna was sent after him, together with a draft for #53 to pay his mileage home. The draft was drawn to a former sheriff, now deceased, but the present sheriff, Lawrence, served the subpoena, and on Nelson's refusing ser- vice without his mileage home, the sheriff considerately forwarded the amount from his own fundsand returned the draft, tiecause it could not be cashed. Clerk Nelson arrived home Wednesday evening too late to permit the case to be tned here. His inability to return in time was anticipated on Tuesday by the court, and change of venue was taken to Manon county, where the trial will be held before Judge Boise, on or after Oc tober 7th. In the meantime a transcript oi the papers in the case must be made, at great expense, to say nothing of the added expense of witnesses traveling to Salem in October. Criticism is falling heavily upon the county clerk, who un doubtedly should have been present at the sitting of court. As to the guilt and punishment of Mr. Rhude, we would sav with Solomon, “He that answereth a matter before he heareth it. it is folly and shame unto him.” The courts will take care of the case.
