Big Packing Companies Still “Knock­
ing Tillamook Cheese.
From the Telegram. .. .
That discrimination is shown again­
st this city by the interests in control
of the Tillamook cheese situation, is
the opinion of at least one man
whose firm handles immense quanti­
ties of cheese annually.
The statement was made this morn­
ing by R- A. Lee, manager of Swift
& Co., who stated that recently he
had endeavored to purchase close to
2000 cases of the Tillamook product
at 15% cents, delivered in Portland,
but had been turned down by Carl
Haberlach, the selling agent for 19
Tillamook factories, who would not
ship any cheese to him for less than
1514 cents, although a few days ago
he had sold him 129 cases at the price
Mr. Lee offered.
“Late yesterday,” said Mr. Lee, "I
received word from Seattle that
agents of Mr. Haberlach were in that
city and were offering any number of
cases of Tillamook cheese to the
trade there at 15 cents, delivered in
Seattle, but he refused point blank
to sell me several hundred cases de­
livered here for less than 15% cents.
Why? It looks to me like rank dis­
crimination and will result in but one
thing. I shall bring all my cheese,
and we handle thousands of pounds
of it every year, from Wisconsin. Mr.
Haberlach has succeeded in loading
California with Tillamook cheese and
now is apparently trying to do the
same thing with the Washington
market and is passing us up. Why he
should sell to Seattle for a half a cent
less than to us, is a mystery I am un­
able to explain.”
Reports from California show that
there is today in storage in that state
1,484,167 pounds of cheese against
870,915 pounds at this time last year,
or a gain of 615,252 pounds.
In the opinion of Mr. Lee and
others, the Portland market is to be
left until the last and then an effort
is to be made to unload remaining
stocks here, but at prices lower than
now quoted. Mr. Lee believes that
Tillamook cannot get along without
the local market but also feels that
unless conditions are changed, out­
side cheese will be the ruling factor
here.
______________
Why and Wherefore.
Assuming that the Journal is hon­
estly seeking information when it
asks why the Republicans of Oregon
should vote for R. A. Booth for Uuit-
ed States Senator, The Spectator
hastens to enlighten its knowledge­
hunting contemporary. The Repub-
licons of Oregon should and will vote
for R. A. Booth because Mr. Booth is
a Republican.
And there is much more to voting
for a Republican senator and .'or-
gressman than the esteemed Demo
cratic Journal would have us believe
There is protection to Oregon s in­
dustries. That is something. There
is a living price for the millmen for
their lumber, to the farmer for their
products, and to the sheepmen for
their wool and mutton. All these
things amount to something, and ate
among the reasons why Republicans
should and will vote for Mr. Booth.
The Spectator hopes this short
statement has given the Journal a
little light.
And now, may The Spectator ask
the Journal a question? Why should
the Republicans of Oregon vote for
Mr. Chamberlain? What has Mr.
Chamberlain done for the Oregon
farmers, sheepmen, and lumbermen
that they should become non-part’
sans, and vote for his return to the
Senate? It is true, the price of wool
has advanced since Chamberlain vot­
ed for free wool. But was that due
to the removal of the tariff? If it was,
political economy is a monstrous
fraud, and Senator Chamberlain has
been grossly deceived by it. Senator
Chamberlain in a spirited burst of
eloquence declared that free wool
would ruin his constituents in Oregon
and piteously begged that his fellow
Democrats would not sacrifice then
in the interest of the foreign sheep­
owner. Even if the increase in the
price of wool was due to the free
trade tariff, Senator Chamberlain
cannot point with pride to that fact,
because in his spirited speech he op­
posed t’.e removel of the tariff; then
his love for Democratic principals
proved greater than his regard for his
constituents, and when the Demo­
cratic whip cracked he voted for the
thing that he said would bankrupt
the wool growers of Oregon.
Why should any Republican vote
for Mr. Chamberlain?—Spectator.

The speculations of Washington
correspondents that Mr. Underwood
and Mr. Clark are sparring for posi­

president desires only a single term.
The speech he made several months

across the Potomac and tried to read

otherwise. His studied avoidance of
