If it be wrong for merchants
and manufacturers to form trusts
to raise the price of certain arti-
cles, is it right for farmers to do
the same thing? Inasmuch as the
farmer has been pretty extensively
bled by the trusts Of various sorts
he is hardly to be blamed for get
ting his revenge when he gets the
opportunity; but that does not
change the principle of the thing.
If it is wrong for one set of men to
form trusts, it is equally wrong for
another set to do so; no matter
what objects are in view.

The Prince Of Wales is claiming
the credit for having indirectly
rendered great assistance to the
Jews in Russia, as we'll as to the
poverty-stricken Jewish exiles
from that country, by lending his
moral support to certain Jewish
committees in England. Well,
the Jews have been rendering
great assistance to the Prince OF
Wales for 10 these many years, by
lending him their hard cash, and
it is only right that he should
show his gratitude for tavors re-
ceived.

IT is probable. judging from re-
ports at hand, that the August
business in the United States was
the largest ever done in that
month, and it is highly gratifying
to know that the increase has been
general and extends to all the
branches of trade and industry.
These facts are proving to be the
ablest missionaries for the republi-
can party, and its principles, that
ever took the field. Facts are al
ways knock-down arguments, and
you cannot make a man believe
when he is prospering as never
before that it is wise to put the
control of the government in the
hands of a party which would re-
verse all of the laws affecting the
great industrial interests in the
country.

tinually mixed up in the newspa-

other is doing and vice versa. 1t
is fortunate with both gentlemen
that both of them should occupy
such high places in public estima-
ton, as to make it certain that
this mixing up process will never

no OUR FRIENDS.

With this issue the GAZETTE
appears to its readers in an en-
larged form. This is only an ex-
pertinent, the continuance of
which, we trust, will be warranted
by a sufficient reception of public
patronage. 1t is the object and
aim of its editor to make the GA
zETTE a first-class local newspaper
-trusty, reliable and reasonable,
and especially devoted to the in
terests of Corvallis and Benton
county. In recognition of these
things it has secured the services
of Arthur Spalding, who will
henceforth be employed on the
local department of the paper. He
is we'll known by our citizens and
any favors shown him will be re-
garded by us with due appreclat-
ion. 1t has always been the in
tention of this paper to be in con-
cord and harmony with the people
in the promotion of public enter
prises in the past, and it will con-
tinue to give support to such in
the future. While thanking all
for past favors, we will not reject,
by any means, continued en-
largement of public patronage, the
reception of which we will en-
deavor to regard with liberal graft
tude, and will ever strive to pro-
mote the interests of the common
cause.

The Observation-Disclosures thinks
it is shame for US rude dwellers
in Western Oregon and Washing
ton to clear off, by burning the
timber so as to get a little patch
of fertile sol. on which to raise
garden sass and SIGH. If the Phila-
delphia editor was to live out here
for a little while he would have a
mental grasp Of the situation that
is now denied him. Oregon is
not wantonly burning timber just
to see it burn, but folks with fine
soil under their feet are tired OF
paying big prices for California
hay and Iowa butter and Ohio
bacon and Chicago lard, and want
to clear a space about 2Ox4O to get
living from. Man is the crea
ture Of his environments, and hu-
man nature is the same in poor
old worn-out Pennsylvania OF on
the virgin soil of Oregon.

The Ii beral, conservative adver-
tiser is the man who gets the
liberal, conservative trade of a
community. You never see any
cobwebs across his doorway, or
any last years goods on hand. He
tells the people what he has
through the columns of the local
paper, and the public know where
to go to get what they want. In
that way the merchant has TO keep
his stock replenished, and his Gus
toners always know that they are
purchasing fresh goodsin groceries
and the latest styles in clothing.
Truly, it pays to advertise by a
very big vote.

FACTS ABOUT FACTORIES.

Factories are important i'll the
wealth-producing enterprises of
the country. They grant employ
ment to laborers who are both
producers and consumers. They
impel growth and promote pros
perity, and enliven activities in
the channels of commerce. The
Northwest must soon devise some
means of support for the army of
immigrants which is trending
westward, and it is time we
were making preparations for
their reception. Let us encourage
the establishment of factories, the
source of augmented business and
the certainty of general prosper
ity. Let US be a progressive peo-
pie in the lines Of industry and
enterprise, and cater to the solu-
ton of problems of push and pro
gress. We can not accomplish
great ends without using great
means.

"GOOD OLD TIMES.

The 'sgood old days" would be
considered very hard times if they
could come back. Our fathers OF
a hundred years ago paid So cents
yard for calico; in 1880 it was
worth % cents; in 1890, II cents
in 1891, 5 cents.
Let us make the same compari-
son regarding the prices of sugar.
In 1890, it cost 1S4 cents a pound
for cheap brown grade, such as
nobody uses now; in 1880, it cost
Is cents a pound; in 1860, II cents;
in 1891, 81 cents for the best gran
ulated sugar.
Take now something that the
farmers sell in place of what they
buy: In 1870, butter sold in
Massachusetts, at II cents a pound;
in 1880, at Is cents a pound; in
1860, at 26 cents pound; in 1891,
80 to 35 cents a pound.
Take another instance, that of
dressed beef. In Massachusetts,
in the year 1870, it sold for 81
cents a pound; in 1880, at u cents;
in 1860, at II cents; in 1891, -
to Is cents.
Consider these facts when the
free traders talk about the ''good
old days." when we had no manu-
factories, when our entire country
was devoted to agriculture, and
the number of those engaged in
other occupations formed but a
small percentage Of the popula-
tion.-Toledo Blade.
