Shrnnshire Sheen.

Mr.. Fred y. Young returned from the
east Saturday. bringing with him fifty
backs and two ewes of pure imported
Shropshire sheep, which he purchased IN
Wisconsin. These are only one year old,
EXCEPT three which have attained the ag OF
years. and they will average 40 lbs. each.
Mr. Geo. y Youug and his son Fed are
the most extensive sheep raisers in this por-
tieu Of the state, and THESE sheep will be
graded with the Meriuoes in their band.
1t is we'll known thaS the Merino produces
the finest qnality of wool, and when mixed
with Shropshire will add quantity and
length of fibre to the fleece. Heretofore it
has been claimed that Eeastera Oregon
clips have been inferior to those from Ohio
and also 10 tie Australian product. BY
breeding these thoroughbred Shropshire
with Merinoes the same i myth Of fibre can
be produced IN tins country that causes
Australian wool to rate so high III the
market, and Sir. Young. realizing the neces-
sity OF competing with foreign raw materia',
has determined TO raise gra;ie that caunot
be exceiled anywhere. In this era of free
trade, Mr.. Young says. he must come to
the conditions OF other countries if he ex-
poets TO continue in the business, and t!fis
he is determined to do. The sheep were at
the stockyards of R. E. Saltmarshe Co.,
to-day, and were visited by many who
understand wool raising. They were ad-
mired by everyone, on account OF the
cleanness of the wool and the mutton. pro-
tfuriry qualities zess=she4 4annimals.ZM Mr..
Young will drive them out to his farm at
Bakeoven tomorrow, and he expects it will
take ten days to reach the destination, not
being able to take them over FIVE miles

of improved breeds of any kind of cattle
being introduced IN this county, and these
will work desirable improve

GOLD and silver.

WASHINGTON, Aug. I2-The silver de-
bate In the house today did not attract
much public interest. The knowledge
that no vote can possibly be reached IN
til August % causes the members to take
little interest In the proceedings and it is
doubtful whether there was quorum
present in the house today. Many mem
bers left tor the seaside last night re-
solved TO remain until IT should be time
for them to return 10 deliver a speech,
and neary every member is preparing
one on the financial situation. 1t seems
likely that the daily spectacle in the
house for the next two WEEKS will be
that of an impassioned individual de-
llvering fiery speech to score or Two
of his personal friends and an array of
900 or 300 empty benches. When the
house adjourned today there were not
more thar. so representatives in the hall
Weaver of Alabama was the first spe ,ker
today. He finished the speech COM
menced by him yesterday, and was fol
lowed by Wheeler. The latter heartily
approved the presidents views In regard
to the purchasing clause of the Sherman
act, though ne believed the present de-
preston was not entirely due to that act.
1t came from the threats of the Demo-
Gratis to pass tariff legislation. Morse of
Massachusetts followed Mr.. Wheeler.
He gave his hearty approval to the views
of the presIden. relative to the repeal OF
the purchasing clause of the Sherman
bill, but he believed that the present
business depression was not attributable
entirely to the Sherman bill. It came
from the threat of the Democratic party
to pass tariff legislation Then Harker
of Ohio spoke in favor of repeal. He
had had, he said, little controversies with
the Republicans, In which he charged the
Republican party with being responsible
for the present situation, but he euIog-
lied Sherman for his attitude at the time
OF the passage of the law which bears his
name. In conclusion he said that In
stead of being abused, Sherman should |
receive the grateful thanks of the whole
people.
