I) 3$ Daily Capital Journal BY HOKBR BROTHERS, ' FRIDAY, AUGUST 27, 1897. OrcgorfflfaS today not a senator who went Jpdhly before the people for his ofllcc. How Ion's shall this continue ? How many other states arc like Ore- Ron : The Chinese and Italians have com- 'plctely driven the American farmer and gardners out or the Portland market. We talk of protecting the home market. The' market reports In this paper are not taken from Portland papers. We are receiving the only original Independent who market taken by any paper at Salem. This paper cannot take its "tele- 'graphic" market report from the "Evening Telegram," as the morning paper does. That report Is news a idny old. Oregon women aresaving our fruit ' "'ithd hop crops, our flax and kid crops. (Kid according to Webster Is a young child or infant.") The men have got !to look out or in the race or progress and- tlcvelopement women will ' outstrip them. The schools do not open until early In October, and all men and women who can go the hopfields should do s and take the children. It will give the children an outing, giyo them health, tcach.them industry and better still earn somemoney. With wheat, wool, cattle, sheep, fruit, flax and sugar beets, to bring money to Oregon, to say nothing of such minor crops as mohair, chittum bark, oats and cayuscs for canning, Oregon will prosper when other states go hungry. Oregon sugar beets tested at the State Agricultural college show twenty per cent of sugar stuff. Chlno beets ayerage 15 percent. This is the garden spot or the world and Califor nia is not in It Senator McfJrido and ex-Senator Mitchell have returned to Oregon en tirely Tor their health. Senator-appoint Oorbett Is seeking health in New England All three arc repair ing political fences. As usual the telegraphic market re port? are doctored and lixed up in the monopol) press to suit the Interests of the wheat gamblers and rob the farmers. This paper has secured at , great expense an independent com mercial wire report, which we believe is correct and reliable. A few American farmers about Portland make money raising ducks, pigs and poultry to sell to the Chinese and Italians. The products consumed by white people at the metropolis of Oregon is grown by Mongols and Dagos. That is the condition of Cali fornia, British Columbia and fust, becoming so In Oregon. The people are realizing that this paper is thououghly Independent, that It Is not published to punish any one, but in the cause of good morals, honesty, good government, and tho development of our state. It makes no pretense to Infallibility but does claim to be fairly Independent. Whether a Salem merchant has been conducting a lottery or not ought to bo sifted to tho bottom by the next "grand Jury. Itlsnotonly unjust and unfair to all other business men to al low one man to engage In tho lottery business, but it is a shock and an affront to the moral and religious pbolplo of tho community who patron .igc'Buchu place. Tho state fair la assuming unusual proportions and promises to bo a II- ounchtl success this year, as well us a fgrcat fair from an exhibitor's stand- ji6lrit. Oregon pcoplo need an awake Ciing on this subject and should bo .ij roused to tho necessity of attendance and exhibiting ALL tho products and resources of our commonwealth, and elevate tho fair above a mero' -placo'of 'amusement. f There was never a greater case of peanut politics than'fhab? Senator McBrldc pretending to distribute Im portant federal ofllccs In Oregon. He alone can do nothing. All he has to ulvcis within his own family circle at present, ir he saves a few crumbs for his relatives and dependants he will tio well. Tho Mitch 11 push flocking to his hotel at Portland Is sickening. IToar, who rendered opin ions backing the Mitchell organiza tion or the legislature, has also writ ten an opinion recomendlng tho seat ing of Governor Lord's appointee. If lie takes his seat In December he will have quite is much to say about federal offices In Oregon as Mr. Mc Brldc, or Mr. Mitchell European conditions are favorable to a fair price for American farm products, but not 6uch as to i,roduce what we would call boom values, or a bonanza condition such as would advance property much. In an inter view Hugh Smith, governor of the bank of England, was quoted August 20: "I do not anticipate any private shipments of gold rrom England to the United States this autumn. There may be some rrom tho conti nent rtom France chiefly. We have a very fair harvest here, not enough of course for our wants, but more abun dant than the average. Besides that, It is probable that the buying back or American securities by tli-i United States will tend to equalize matters, redressing whatever balance there may be. "T can't see anv tanclblo rea3on for believing exceptional shlpmeuts are irnlnir. There has been recently a sub stantial improvement in the market for American securities, due almost entirely to American buying. "ThTcisa feeling that American finances are still In an unsettled con dition. There has been no such res toration of confidence as would be cal cu ated to make any difference in the Impression that has prevailed for some time, and as to your original question my view is that there Is no ground at present for expecting any substantial movement of gold to Auerlca from England. "Thcie will be large payments com ing due for wheat at its enhanced value. 'Mainly from the continent, not from England, where the harvest has been almost a bountiful one and to a large extent Is saved already. Francis Baring, manager of tho Ba ring firm, took a similar view. While there has long been a distinc tive Pacific coast and Rocky Moun tain literary product, only within a few years have wc heard -of a middle west or midland group of writers. Two Chlcagoan writers, Mr. Opie Read and Mr. Stanley Waterloo, are very much liked In London. Mr. Waterloo has written an Introduction to his tlrst novel, '"A Man and a Woman", In which he has something to say about tho "school of literature, lately born In the great region of which Chicago is the metropolis." "A first impulse is to say that no such 'school' exists. There are not a few writers In this region, but there Is np well-defined school. Tho valleys of the Mississippi and upper St. Law rence rivers combine to make a vast country between tho Alleghanles and Rocky Mountains, In which country a majority or the people of the United States haye their being These mil lions have perhaps, as much intelli gence and are made up as much of reading communities as are the peo ple or any other great area In tho world. "Until lately American lire was chiefly portrayed as it had been or is on the Atlantic coast, or as it was In tho early lirtles on tho Pacific coast, and as It Is no more there nor any where else. Speaking broadly, Amer ican lire west of tho Alleghanles and east of tho Pacific slope has been al most unknown territory In tho world of fiction. "Yet this territory holds most of tho real bone and sinew of American life, holds tho centre of population, tho very core of tho continent of North America. The life of the peo ple of this area is largely concen trated and fully Illustrated here, und such life begins to find expression through tho writers of Chicago and the Middle West. They should, per haps, rather bo called the 'Chicago group" than tho 'Chicago school.' Nothing approaching a 'school' or cult of authors exists in Chicago and probably nothing of a kind will ever flourish here. The spirit of tho West is too broad, too ullvo to tho immense diversities of human experience und character to admit tho sacrifice of In-dlvldiuilltyjt-o ajiy form. . Au Albany.gravestouo man is going to .Alaska to the diggings where ho expects tocliryo out fortunes from Alaska iceburgs. JOURNAL "X-RAYS." A newspaper that talks economy In county nffalrs should not be allowed to pad its blllii for county advertising more than three to one. Senator I. L. Patterson has now been mentioned for collector or cus toms, lias he given up tho state trcasurcrship and secretary or state? Of course, Senator Mitchell has re turned to Oregon for law practice only. The numberless offices promised tho "Mitchell push" do not worry him. The Statesman rejoices at what It Is pleased to term the 39 cent silyer dollar. Can anyone but a Tory hur rah over tho downfall or a great American industry? Nay, verily T. T.Gcer Is not writing any letters for tho press depicting the woes of the poor hop pickers this year. It Is too close onto time Tor picking rederal of tices. It Is said no one so rar has been able to extract anything but positive promises of federal offices from Sena tor McBrldc since his return from Washington. lie don't give any otherjkind or promises Erickson, the Salem man who bid on tho Eugene Court house founda tion, withdrew his bid, saying an er ror hud been made. No one doubts that the foundation for a job will bo well laid. C. H.CusIck goes to Nicaragua but ir it don't suit will return and take his position at theasylum as druggist. It isn't everyone can go to another country and be sure or a state job on his return. When Railroad Commissioner II. B. Compson visits Salem in future will he stop at tho Willamette hotel, as has been his habit in the past? Statesman. Where will lie "stop" when he wants to make a raise? No indignation meetings have been held over general Compson's removal rrom the railroad commission. His removal rrom tho Newport beach will be considered as nothing less than a henlous outrage. It Is a pleasure to know that the editor or the Statesman Is not alone or a kind in the world. He has found a mate of his own mental calibre, the good little English boy who edits the Newport News, thesmallest thing In Oregon. During his short stay, Congressman Tongue was in demand among his constituents, especially tho candi dates for the postofllce. Tom Cooper appeared to have the inside track. Corvallls Times. "Banker" Cooper Is one of the syn dicate that laid Blnger nermann on the shelf for what there Is In It Mr. Cooper has forbidden tho mention of his name in this paper, and it is only used hero In the pickwicklan sense. Has Helped Mother. "My mother has been afflicted with catarrh and stomach trouble. She has taken a number or bottles or Hood's Sarsaparilla and has derived gieat benefit rrom It. "We always take Hood's Sarsaparilla when we need a blood purifier and we find nood's Pills a remedy ror sick head ache." Mrs Minnie Sprlggs, Oakland, Ore. Hood's Pills arc the only pills t.o tako with Hood's Sarsaparilla. Easy and yet efficient. There has been filed articles of In corporation In Florence, Lane county, a company to do a steamship business in Alaska. "The Gold Mining and Navagatlon Co." is the name.
