Free Advertising for Oregon.

Col. Thomas Lang, United States treas.
ury expert of The Dalles, Oregon, invites
the board of trade or any well-informed cit
lzen of every town or city to send him a
report of the resources of each town and
vicinity embracing mining, agricultural and
manufacturing interests. What IS wanted
is fair, accurate and exact statement oil
the natural resources of each neighborhood,
and of the developments thus far made.
Such reports will be made the basis of the
statistical report of the treasury department
upon internal commerce. This book being
published under the authority of the goy-
ernment will be regarded as an authority
everywhere, and will be read in every civ
Ilized country. The Salem Statesman truly
remarks that this opportunity for advertis.
ing the resources of each locality is one that
should be taken advantage of by those
whose business interest are dependent upon
the growth and development of this coun.
try of great resources. Some of the north
western states will have from four hundred
to five hundred pages octave in the report,
and unless the business men of our Oregon
towns wish to see the tide of immigration
turn toward Washington and Montana,
they should forward to Colonel Lang full
report of the resources of their several
localities

Funeral af Father Hartman.

The funeral of Father Harman Sunday
was largely attended. Before 3 o'clock, the
hour set for the funeral, the Baptist church
was filed to its full seating capacity, and
several were standing in the aisles. At the
hour named, Mrs. Woodwork, in her mas
terly manner, played a solemn dirge on the
organ, and the procession headed by Funeral
Director Micheli-the remains preceded by
members of the Masonic fraternity slowly
marched into the church. The pail. bearers
were Hons. D. P. Thompson, Phil. Nets
chan, j. D. Lee, r. F. Gibbons, G.. A. Liebe
and j. B. Condor. After an impressive
service by Revs. o. D. Taylor and w. e.
Curtis, the remains were conveyed to the
hearse-drawn by four black horses-and
the solemn procession wended its way to
Sunset cemetery, where the sad yet beauti-
ful ceremonies of the Masonic ritual were
gone through, and the earthly remains of
good, old Father Harman were consigned to
their last resting place. In the long list of
mourners there were only two direct
descendants of the deceased-Mrs. q. d.
Doane, his daughter and Mr.. J. 3. Arm
strong, of Ellenshurgh, his grandson. The
sympathy of the community will be ex-
tended to the sorrowIng relatives in their

Bennett's Past Record.

Tie DALLEs, May 20, 1890.
| Editor TINES -MoUNTAINEER:
In the judgment of the writer, A. S.
Bennett delivered the ablest, most con-
slstent and logical discourse furnished on
the Democratic side in Wasco county in
June, 1885, and many who could not en-
dorse his doctrine recognized his ability,
and admired his fair and straightforward
advocacy of his known convictions.
There were none among those admirers
who expected, at that time, that he would
in two years abandon the fair statement
of his principles and courageous plea as
to their correctness, to take up the tricks
of the political charlatan as he is reported
to have done at Eight Mile and Deschutes.
1t was considered at that time he was
more courageous than the balance of
Democratic orators in this region; but as
the position of his party on the subject of
wool is unchanged he must now be con-
sIdered as more cowarllly than his party.
1t is reported that large part of his dis
course Is taken up in a special plea for
his own election, because he will have tine
ability 10 perform great things, although
he will be the minority if elected, and
criticising the legislative record of Hon.
E. .. Mccoy.
MIR. Mccoy was elected to the legisIa-
ture, and he made record that his con-
stituents can approve or disapprove as
their opinions vary; but he made no
pledges that he failed to fulfill. He ac-
copied no trust that he did not prove
faithful to, and no onellas the hardihood
to claim that anything but his belief of
his constituents. need influenced his vote
on any question.
Mr.. A S. Bennett was elected to the
legislature in 1882 the writer voted for
him) and where is his record? Where
are the pledges he then made? Where is
the trust the voters of this county con-
fided to his honor! There is no clew to
their whereabouts unless they are covered
by the pleas and promises Mr.. Bennett is
now making to the voters of Wasco
county, or among the records of the
county court that contain the items of ex-
pense of special legislative election caused
by the failure of Mr.. Bennett to fulfill his
contract with the people of this county.

Farmers as Patr0nizers Of Loan and
Trust Companies
ERsKINEvILLE, May 20, lSe

ERsK1NEvILLE, May 20, 1890.
Editor TINES -MoUNTAINEER.
Under the above caption we have been
see it done by some more able pen. that
the business and plan of the various Loan
and Trust companies might be shown up
more plainly, and utter word OF caution
to the uninitiatedi but now comes Gen.
Ben Butler and heads US off in speech
before the Boston Butler club ON the
Farmers Alliance, in which he says the
farmers are already in debt to the various
Loan companies $3.50, ,00U,0OO; so that
any word of admonition at this time may
seem a tri1e late. Now $3,450,O00,00 is
good round sum, which it reduced TO
silver dollars would plank road with
silver dollars 10 the sun. Should Gen.
Butler not be elected to the presidency of
the United States in 1892, this great farm
ers' debt will soon have doubled under the
manipulations of his pen and In the con-
| ception of his fertile brain, will have
reached, say in round numbers S7,OOO,-
| 600, 900, which would plank double
| tram-way with silver dollars to the sun,
| and give surplus tor side tracks. 1t is
to be hoped. however, that the general has
made slip with his pen and that the 8
Is on the wrong side of the dot And still
the work goes on, and loan agents are do
| ing thriving business.
| We learn from an item in the Oregonian,
of recent issue, that in Whitman county,
Washington, there were recorded within
| the past twelve months six hundred farm
| mortgages. Fellow farmers, let us stop
this thing at once. Do you not hear the
| wall from Kansas? Farmers, don't do it.
"Why will ye sell yourselves for naught,
and give yopr substance for that which is
not lead"?
Gen. Buffers strong point IN his speech
| is when he. says, ''the farmers do not get
value receiyed'. The charges which pay
| in advance amount to I6 and 20 per cent.
| If you must borrow, it is far better to
| borrow of private Individuals and get
value received. FARMER.
