The Portland Market.

Unchanged prices are quoted by
Portland shippers, as former con-
ditions prevail. In the local
market valley wheat is worth
973 c @$1 per GENITAL, and S71@
80 c is offered for Walla Walla
wheat. Beerholm estimates the
English crop net for consumption
at only 100000 bushels, and
the French yield 100000 BUSH
ele below last years, making a def
cheney in the United Kingdom and
France of 250,000,000 bushels.
The. same authority estimates the
American wheat in excess of do
mestic requirements at only 4S,-
100000 bushels. While there
seems reason for believing this
statement of foreign production
approximately accurate, especial
ly since the French yield has been
fixed at less than 283,000,000
by other authorities. Dunn's
agency states that the Beerholm
report of the American surplus is,
as usual, made without regard to
old stocks, and leads men to ex-
pect q supply nearly, if not quite,
100,000,000 bushels below the
actual figures.

WHEN we read of the terrible
cyclones and floods in the Eastern
and Southeastern states of the des-
truetion Of hundreds of lives and
millions Of dollars worth of pro-
perty, we cannot help but think
that the people who inhabit the
Pacific coast, and Oregon in par
ticular, should be satisfied with
their lot if VIII eat is only 35 cents
bushel. Just imagine, if you
will, going to bed for a nights rest
and being awakened suddenly by
the horrible roar of a cyclone,
which is upon you before you have
the ghost Of q show to jump into
yonr wearing apparal, and, in nine
cases out of ten, you are lifted with
your house out into the night
amidst flying wreckage, stones and
bricks, to be either crippled for
life or killed out right.

Iowa, cyclone of June 18th, 1882,

ATHENA, OCTOBER 8, 1898.

From the looks of our advertis-
ing columns the outside world who
did not know better, would judge
that Athena has only about one
dozen live business men. From
the looks of the Press not quite as
favorable showing for the town
could be made from a newspaper
standpoint. But you mustn't judge
a town by its newspaper, dear
reader.--Inland Republican.
THERE is some logic in the above
item, for during these hard times
the average country newspaper as
far as the merits of the town in
which it is published is concerned,
is no criterion to go by. And as
for the CLOCKS Of the PRESS" when
ever the business men of Athena
can see their way out of the present
financial difficulty, and money
comes into the country SO that
people can buy goods, then will
Athena's merchants advertise their
wares. AS the situation now
stands there is nothing to adver-
tise for, hence no money for the
printer, and in consideration Of the
fact, where is the man who can
blame us for curtailing expenses
by running "boYler" plates, or any
thing else to get the paper out and
run a chance Of paying our just
debts when the wheat moves out
of the country.
We would respectfully advise
our esteemed contemporary up the
street that now is his time to
get in and discard his patent, print
his paper at home, and thereby
earn the enviable reputation of
publishing the "only live paper in
the county" He might stand the
pressure. I'VE at present, can't do
that same. Whenever the business
men of Athena are justified in ad-
yertising, they will do SO, and
then, and not until then, will the
Press come up to its usual stan
dard.

AT Astoria, Thursday morning
Judge Mcbride sentenced John
Hanson to death. Hanson, it will
be remembered, is the fellow who
brutally murdered his wife while
she was engaged in picking berries
last spring, by beating out her
brains witha club. He confessed
that he did the horrible deed in q
fit of anger, because the woman
would not give him some money to
spend for drink.

Oregon Wheat.

Out of twenty-one varieties of
Oregon wheat exhibited at the
worlds fair, Superintendent w.
H. Savage, of the agricultural de-
partment, says that the judges
found nineteen averaged SO pounds
to the bushel, one weighed 634
pounds and another (spring wheat)
went So pounds. The judges said
that not halfthe wheat exhibited by
other states was holding to the
standard weight-60 pounds. One
sample of Oregon oats went so
pounds and another 511. This is
grand showing when it is re-
membered that the standard
weight for oats is SO pounds. Ore
gon barley went 81 pounds on the
scales, being three pounds above
the standard weight.

Portland 0regonian; Alas for

seem to have no conception of the
possibilities of a worlds fair state
commission for advertising purpo-
ses. Of our 100000 appropriation
some $4,000 is unexpended, and

Salem Democrat: The news
papers Of this city have heretofore
deemed it their duty to have moth
ing but praise in their columns of
the state fair and its management.
No matter how poor the exhibits
or how incompetent the manage
ment, they have seemed to be un-
der the impression that it would
not do for Salem paper to point
out its defects or suggest changes.
But the comparative failure of the
present fair should convince them
that it is time to tell the truth,

The fair has not been success in

N. Y. Times (Dem): We do not
wish to alarm the business men of
the country about the situation of
the repeal bill in the senate, but
we feelit to be our duty to arouse
them. 1t will not do to 60 to
sleep under a delusive sense of Sc
curity. The country spoke out to
the house last month and its COM
mand was obeyed. The senate is
less tractable, but there may be
point beyond which it cannot or
dare not resist the pressure the
country can put upon it. In our
opinion it is high time the business
men were astir again.
Telegram There are just two
classes of idlers who ought to be
Topped off, the tramp and the bond
holder. Neither contributes a
farthing to the wealth ofthe nation,
both are burden upon industry,
and together they make about as
useless a pair of toughs as ever
looted treasury or robbed hen
roost. When the government gets
around to policy which will give
no excuse for the existence of
either, things will be coming just
about right.
The English laugh at our slang
names for money, forgetting that
their own slang is just as nonsen-
sical. A joey is fourpence, a tan
ner sixpence, a bob is a shilling,
a bull is five shillings, a quid is
one pound, a pony twenty-five
pounds, and a monkey five hun
dred pounds. Alongside Of such
terms in common use in England
the greenback becomes an elegant
euphemism.
