A new BUSINESS METHOD.

s. II. Baynard has adopted a new plan that
Is now prevailing in. western cities. whereby
ire opportunity is given to procure a good
watch for very low price. through the
agency of cooperative clubs. This plan Is as
follows: Clubs are composed of forty mem-
bers who pay one dollar fee, which payment
goes to the originator Of the plan. When the
club is formed they mutually agree topurchase
forty watches for the sum of seven hundred
and sixty-five dollars. Each week thereafter
the members meet, and each pays one dollar,
at which time number is drawn, which en-
titles the owner of such number to select and
and receive his watch. similar to the old plan
of watch clubs, with the exception that upon
the drawing of a number further payment Of
that number cease. The remaining members
Cless one each week continue their payments
and drawing for thirty weeks, when all pay
ments cease and the remaining ten members
receive their watches.
The watches so distributed are a gold-flled
case. made by James Boss. with either an Ell
gin, Waltham, Springfield or Hampden move-
ment, such as are sold all over our city for
thirty-five dollars and which are fully war
raDted to give satisfaction. Clubs are now

UNLOADING on THE PUB-
L/C

Our Andrew Jackson contempo-
rary, the evening Chronicle, is gum
bility personitled, A st. Pani hrih
ISSUED circular Immediately upon
the passage of the Mckinley Dill
for the purpose of persuading 'he
trade that goods were going to sail
sky high, and that 1t had laid In a
big stock at the old prices, and was
pining philanthropically to give the
farmers the benefit of its advantage
in order that it might clear It's
shelves and lay in another stock at
the enhanced prices.
The schoolboy who couldn't see
through that advertising ruse would
be hopeless case. Yet the Chron-
icle, thinking it could detect n point
against the republican party, doomed
the business of an Eastern firm-
gave it free advertising for which 1t
would charge home merchant a
good round figure.
Here is n single sentence that
gives the whole snap away: 1--WE
estimate that the cheap razor that
we list at sl.95 per dozen VIII cost
in the future $500" Can any
thinking man, any person with n
spoonful of brains or glimmering
of Intelligence, believe that the st.
Paul firm is sincere in its warning
to the trade? That it is spending
hundreds of dollars in an effort to
convince the trade that 1t is willing
to sell for Sl.95 an article that is in
trinsically worth $3.50, in order that
1t may buy another stock at the
advanced prices? If anybody Is
really gullible enough to believe
that, he Is indeed a hopeless case,
and free trade has marked him for
her own.
The country has been flooded with
circulars similar to this. No strong
cr demonstration in support Of the
Mckinley bill could be desired
even by it's warmest advocates. All
over the land wholesale merchants
are anxious to sell goods at the old
prices, so anxious In fact that they
go to an enormous expense to ad.
vertiso their desire. Why? Be
cause they judge the future by the
past, and realize that the effect OF
high protection has always been to
encourage home production and to
cheapen the prices of manufactured
products. That is why they are 40
painfully anxious to unload at the
old prices, and not because they de.
sire to put money into the con.
sumers' pockets and take it out OF
their own.
The man who can not sec through
this gauzy subterfuge is an object OF

GOODS At OLD PRICES.

Democratic orators and newspa-
pers have been indulging In a great
deal of speculation regarding the eff
feet Of the tariff bill. Everything
the farmer buys" they declare, "has
been advanced, but his products re-
main at the same old prices" The
REVIEW demonstrates this morning
that all that talk has been idle AS
sertion and campaign buncombe.
1t has gone among the merchants
of Spokane and has put the direct.
bipartisan question, "Are you SELL
ing single article In your store at
Il higher price since the passage of
the Mckinley bill?" These an
swers are published in another col
umn. They show that everything
the farmer buys stands at the old
prices. Here Is I he list.
Hardware of all descriptions, agri-
cultural implements, barb wire, tin
ware, clothing of all grades,
groceries with the exception of
sauces, pickles and Turkish prunes),
and dry goods. This list includes
nearly every necessary and comfort
of life. Articles not included in il
are luXurles.
On the other hand, these inter-
views demonstrate that champagne,
ale and porter, imported cigars,
musical instruments, French china,
opera glasses and Mexican onyx
clocks have advanced in price by
reason of the passage of the McEin-
ley bill.
With the single exception Of
musical instruments there Is II othing
in the latter list that takes u dollar
out OF the pockets OF the farmers.
What does the wheat grower of
Eastern Washington care about the
advance in champagne ana im-
ported cigars? How Is he affected
by the rise in French china and i'm
ported opera glasses? a terrible
hardship, indeed, for his family be-
cause Mexican onyx clocks have
been made dearer by the new tariff
law.
For twenty-five years the demo-
cratic party has been clamorously
demanding the higher taxation of
luxuries, Year after year the re-
publican party has been increasing
the duties on these luxurles of the
rich, and the higher they are put
tho louder the democrats protest.
Spokane sends greeting to the
farmers Of Washington, and assures
them that her merchants are selling
nearly every thing the farmer buys
NJ the same old prices. If other
merchants are charging them more
they are taking advantage of the
democratic outcry against the Nc
Kinley bill to increase their profits.
Under the beneficent influence of
that law new manufactories will

tho farmers Of Washington, because
the wheat buyer must ad-
vance his money for an in
definite period, and must figure lib
orally for interest. Then again, he
may get high price In the worlds
markets and he may not. 1t Is oil
long distance speculation, and he
has no assurance that the railroads
will not advance rates In the mean
time. AS matter of fact they re-.
fuse to guarantee that rates will not
be advanced, or to give assurance of
delivery to the future known mar
kets Of Chicago.
or course wheat is selling for less
than II Is worth. Under the clrcum-
stances no other result could be pos
sible. The warehouses and eleva-
tors are all filled, wheat Is sacked
and piled up all over the country,
aud the railroads are unable to place
1t where 1t is wanted, because Of a
lack of rolling stock.
Whether or not the transporta-
ton companies are censurable for
this condition is a question for de-
termination. Their officials claim
that the supply shops of the coun-
try can not furnish the required
cars and engines. Among the peo-
pie there is growing suspicion that
1t is not the desire of the railroads
to relieve this condition, chat they
are ''inn with the elevator COM
panies, and are interested In hold
ing back wheat that ought TO go
forward. If they have conspired to
certainly have overshot the mark,
because the elevators are all filed
aud their owners want cars quite as
badly as the producers. Again, 1t
would seem reasonable to credit the
wheat buyers with IA desire to throw
their purchases upon the present ex-
cellent Eastern markets.
There Is sstill auother consideration
that would weigh against the self
interest of the railways. If they
show an inability to transport the
country's products, they thereby in
vito other lines into their rich field.
This 1t Is that has spurred Hill to
greater activity; let these conditions
continue, letthe Northern Pacific
and Union Pacific confess their in
ability to handle the business along
their lines. and the country as vet
upon the threshold of development,
and other lines will come here, and
quickly at that.
The conditions are unfortunate
deplorable. They deprive Eastern
Washington of wealth that she has
produced. The situation is one
that ought to attract wider attention
and discussion. There is remedy
somewhere. The sooner 1t is found
the better for Spokane and the state
of Washington.

THE WHEAT BLOCKADE

In June Of this year wheat was
selling in the Chicago market for S5
cents, and in the Spokane market
for from 5S to 50 cents. AT present
the Chicago selling price is Sl.02,
while in the home market so cents
is the ruling price.
In other words, while wheat has
been rising in Liverpool and Chica-
go, 1t has been falling in Eastern
Washington.
The reason for this anomalous and
unfortunate condition Is easily
found--a lack Of transportation facil-
tiles. For all practical purposes a
large portion of the state of WASH
ington is as isolated as 1t was before
the advent of the railroads. Then
the interior farmer was confronted
by an inability to throw his grain
upon the worlds markets, and In
consequence he could not get prof
liable price for his product. That is
precisely the situation to-day. The
railroads can not carry out the sur
plus In time to throw II upon the
existing attractive market. Give
them the entire year and they will
probably be able to handle IL;
but that is not satisfactory to
