CROP PROSPECTS

Are the crops injured has been the
anxious question of the week. So far
as the present appearance of the grain
is concerned it is still uninjurctl.
though the threshing machine may
tell Il different tale, and the elevators.
In spots the frost killed all tender gar.
den stuff and scorched potatoes pretty
badly and ice formed in very thin
sheets. In other places only slight
effects could be seen in gardens and
no ice was formed. Asa whole we
get the opinion of many farmers that
the early wheat is all right, but that
late wheat will show the effects of
frost.
Harvesting is going on in some
neighborhoods, but will not be in full
blast until next week. The Pembina
river country seems TO be in the lead
this year and is even ahead of the
southern portion of the country. 1t
is general opinion that very late
wheat has but little show.
Various opinions are heard about
the general results. Some good Judges
place the yield from IS to 30 per cent.
of last year, while others make it
better. The crop does not run us
even as last year, and while most of
the fields look as well us one could
ask, occasionally very poor field just
heading out is seen, which, of course,
will reduce the average. We think
that While the average per acre
Throughout the county will be Slightly
reduced, the increased acreage will
bring upa greater total than last year.
This. with the probable increased
price, will give us an era of increased
prosperity, which is a very pleasant
thing to contemplate.

y gentleman whose business leads
him all over the Northwest to the Pa.
ciiic coast. was a caller ut this Office
last week. In speaking of the state
OF business in the western states and
territories he spoke of the state of
affairs at Baker City, Oregon. In that
vicinity sheep raising is the chief in.
dustry of the farmers and the wool
clip stands in the same relation to
their prosperity as does the wheat
crop to us. Usually the banks hold
from 100000 to 100000 to buy wool
at the proper season. This year the
banks did not have a dollar to buy
with, and the farmers were compelled
to store their wool and wait for !,
market until the Mills bill was out of
the way. This occurred after the
election when Oregon gave 1000
majority for the republicans. If it
had occurred before, the majority
would have been doubled. There is
Ito doubt of the way the Pacific states
will so this fall: they all raise wool.
Fortunately wheat cannot he affected
i'll this way by any tinkering of tariff
If it could, we would he as badly of
for d market as the Oregon farmers
because the South don't raise wheat
or wool, all the protection they want
is on rice and sugar, and the Mills bill
is fixed to suit the South.

NEWSPAPER PERSONALITIES

I'VE w 0EA1Gh fGhSON ALlIlES.
Every now and then certain parties
are heard to say that the more IL news.
paper abuses Il man the more people
think of him, and the best way to
elect a political opponent is to attack
his personal character. On the other
hand. it is said that anything is fair in
war and politics, and that mud is fair
to use and as deadly in effect as are
bullets.
Usually in u question of this kind
the truth lies between. The abuse
that finds its weapons in all epithctic
deluge of Billingsgate also finds the
weapon used to have a strong reac.
ton. And while readers will some.
times look curiously OIL the talent dis.
played in the invention of abusive
adjectives and peculiar epithets be.
tween a couple Of country editors, yet
the result OH their minds is similar to
that produced by prize fight between
brutcs of men or of bull dogs.
But the question comes to every
editor and to every politician, first,
how far am justified in using an op.
pcnent's frailties and faults in defeat.
ing his influence and plans for prefer.
mcnt, and, second, how best to use
them to the greatest effect. Each one
answers these questions for himself
and accordingto his own judgment.
For ourselves we believe that any
candidate for public Office, or office
holder. "ex.otlicio'' las no private
character. His life both past and
present is, by virtue of his relations TO
the public, the property of the public;
and if lie has any cause for shame lie
must be able to show Justification OF
repentance. or it will be counted
against him. and of right ought to be.
lie stands in the same relation to
the public as a private cmployc does
to his employer, and no one doubts the
right of the latter to know what the
private character of his clerk or cash.
ier is or has been. The discussion OF
private character should he limited b,
proper language and due regard fol
the truth. Mere epithctic abuse is
reactionary, and statements unbound
ed upon fact are but blank cartridges
and only serve in the end to prove
that the paper using them is unre
liable.
But the politician who can com
mand success in the face of news
paper warfare of any kind, is rare, ani
When the public believe that what i.
charged is the truth, and such trutl
as would disqualify from Il like situa
ton in private pursuits. then that
politician may as well emigrate t.
some land where lie Is not known.
