To save their lives the four cowboys who

force their horses through a narrow belt
of blazing timber. Before they had gone
ten feet the animals had inhaled flames and
dropped to the earth, their riders being
compelled to run back to their starting

Isn't it about time that some one at
tempted defense of the "old fogy?" In
these days there is no one more decried.
He is popularity supposed to block the
wheels of enterprise, to stand in the way
of progress, and nearly every association
has two or three Of these people whom
the members would gladly throw over
board if they could. The odd thing about
all this is the fact that the cola fogy'
has usually been one Of the creators of
the very body which seeks to be rid of
him. In the beginning he was indefati-
gable; he labored long and earnestly to
procure funds, and was at considerable
personal sacrifice to put thio or that in
stitution on its feet.
Now that things are finally settled
and paid ( and everything is in good
running order he is disposed to let well
enough alone for little time. But this
will not do at all for the young blood
which is constantly pouring in. The
new element is full of progressive ideas
and suggestions of innovations, and
when it meets resistance on the part Of
the cold fogy" there is a clashing Of
opinions. Buffalo Courier.

FREE WOOL.

The Seattle Post-1ntelligencer
has the following good points on
the question of free wool, which is
now being agitated by the demo
cratic majority in the house of rep
resentatives:
The free wool bill, as presented
to congress, is substantially the
wool provisions of the Mills bill of
1888, which made wool free and
spared the wool manufacturer. Of
course, if this bill should become
a law the wool grower, deprived of
all protection, would finally turn
upon the wool manufacturer and
help the free traders strip the fact
ory as we'll as the farm of all pro-
lection. Oregon and California
wool growers repudiated this kind
of democratic tariff reform in No
vember, 1888, by defeating Cleve-
land, who indorsed the Mills bill,
for reelection, and Oregon, Wash
ington and California will certain
ly not help elect democrat, stand
ing on free wool platform, pres
ident in November next.
The education of the campaign
of 1888 taught the wool growers
and wool manufacturers that their
interests are mutual, and so we
find President Whitman, of the
National Association of Wool Man
ufacturers, in opposition to the
democratic policy of free wool.
Mr.. Whitman sees clearly that the
wool grower would not spare the
wool manufacturer very long after
'.fEee woor' had been enacted. The
democratic reformers propose the
repeal of the duties on wool and
the specific duties on wool goods,
which at present represent the du-
ties ON the raw material, leaving
ON wool goods the present ad val
orem duties, thus retaining to the
manufacturer as much protection
as ever, and exposing the grower
to unlimited competition with
Australia, New Zealand, Spain and
the rest of the world.
The Mckinley tariff is framed
upon the principle that the pro-
ducer of raw material is as much
entitled to protection as the manu-.
facturer.

SECRETARY FOSTER says: "There
is 10 system on Gods earth that
will beat a rascal. The only way
to prevent stealing i'll the banks Or
anywhere else is to have honest
men running them. Every bank
and every other business enter
prise that's worth anything is run
by one man. If that man is not
honest. no system of examination
or direction can keep him from
robbing." Teach the children
morality and honesty in the family,
in the school, in the church, and
wherever it can be taught, and
there will be less dishonest men.
This is the only way to prevent
stealing, embezzlement and fraud.

CHINESE DESTITUTE OF NER YES.

The Chinese can remain in one
position an indefinite time, have
no conciousness of monotony, can
do without exercise, are imper-
vious to noise, can go to sleep at
any time and i'll any attitude-all
because they have no nerves. 1t
is not be supposed that this nerve
lessness is physiological fact, but
it can not be doubted that the
Chinaman's patience, endurance,
and insusceptlbility to influence
which would send a European into
an early grave are constitutional.
He can not help taking things as
they come. Curiously enough,
this Indifference is not associated
with want of energy, for the
|Chinaman is exceptionally indus
trious. He is simply insensible to
worry.

AN examination OF the shelves
of the grocery stores of this section
will convince anyone that the
greater portion OF the canned
fruits consumed in the Northwest
are brought here from California,
canned corn from as far east as
Maine and other canned vegetables
largely from California. 1t will
prove a permanent advantage to
this section to have the over-pro-
duction of fruit reach a sufficient
stage to bring about the establish
ment of enough canneries to sup
ply, at least, the home demand.
We suspect that at the present
time a good deal of the product OF
Oregon canneries finds a market
abroad because of its superior
quality. A great many varieties
of fruits can certainly be produced
here as cheaply as anywhere and
we ought not to be sending money
to California for canned goods that
could be produced at home as
cheaply and, in many cases, OF
superior quality. A large guam
tity Of California evaporated fruits
are also still sold in this section.
In the line Of nuts we import
practically everything, although
there are localities in Oregon and
Washington in which English wal
nuts, almonds, chestnuts and other
varieties of commonly used nuts
thrive. Let us get outside canned
goods, evaporated fruits, etc., out
of our local markets before we
worry seriously about over-pro
duction in horticultural lines

FEBRUARY 18th was Lincoln's
birthday. Eminent for piety and
sincerity, he certainly stood at the
head of American men, and it is
proper and fitting, and suggestive
of the love of patriotism, that his
name should be honored and his
memory revered ON that day,
with the characteristic enthusiasm
that greeted the occasion. The
name of Abraham Lincoln has
passed into history, and it shall
not be blotted out while the nation
exists.

THE WILLAMETTE RI YER.

The effort being made to run
boats up the. Willamette river to
Eugene is a laudable one, but in
order to do this a part of the
appropriation made for the Will
lamette river must be expended
above Harrisburg, says the Eugene
Journal. The upper Willamette,
between Harrisburg and Eugene,
should be included in the next
river and harbor bill and reason
able amount should be appropri
ated for the purpose of cleaning
out the snags and removing bar
distractions IN the river as far up
as Eugene. Twenty-Five and thirty
years ago steamboats, ran up to
Eugene frequently during the win
ter months and carried away all
the freight. They could and would
have made regular trips five OF
six months in the year, had there
been business enough to require it,
but there was not much freight
then. consequently they came only
when they conld get a load Of
freight both ways. We went on a
steamboat about twenty-eight or
thirty years ago from Eugene to
Springfield, and the boat took a
load of flour to Oregon City. There
is no reason why boats should not
come to Eugene as well as to Cor
wallis or Harrisburg. There is
plenty of water in the river. In
fact, the depth is about the same
between Eugene and Corvallis as
between Corvallis and Salem, but
the channel is narrower in places
and more inclined to become OBJ
structed with snags and drifts.
These distractions can be removed
and kept out of the way by little
expense each year, and we hope
that our congressional delegation
will insist on including this part of
the river in the next appropriation
bill.

It is not necessary that a man

There is reliable and encouraging
success at hundred dollars an
acre; for when man can own

IF he can do better, that is also
well, but 800 an acre of gross

for one man and family, is more,

For some years past foreign

Is there any reason why an i'm
mense fruit canning industry can
not be built up in this section.
The superior quality of the pears,
peaches and cherries will insure a
practically unlimited market, and
the extra quality will also offset
the extra distance from market.
Some varieties of small fruit can
also be raised here with greater
ease than in almost any other Sec
ton of the country.
