End of the Tariff Bill.

Thirty-iiye against 90 was the vote
by which the sugar schedule Of the
tariff bill finally passed the senate.
This means that the bill as q whole
will pass by about the same vote.
There is no reason to suppose that
the income tax will be defeated. II
anything, it will be adopted by q
larger vote than was the sugar
schedule, for it is certain to receive
the votes Of all the democrats who
voted for the latter, ms well rs OF
PETER. who voted against it. 1t is
not improbable that the income tax
feature OF the bill will also have re-
publican support. II it were thought
likely to put the democrats in hole,
half Of the republican membership
would be found voting for the tax
when the motion is made to strike il
out Of the bill. But Ms il is plain
that the democrats, with the excep-
ton Of Senator Hill, will vote to re-
tain the tax, not more than two or
three republicans ut most may be ex-
pected to vote with the democrats.
From the present outlook the tariff
bill will 60 to the house by the mid
die Of next week, and q day or two
thereafter will be in the hands OF the
conference committees. II the house
stands firm for the rights Of the peo-
pie and for democratic honor and
consistency, we shall yet get tariff
bill that self-reaPecting democrats
can indOrpe and one that will Drovide
all the revenue needed for an honest
and economical administration Of the
government.

doesn't endorse the idea of the gov
eminent running the telegraph lines

Postofiice department, and he has
written a letter to Chairman Wise, of

ing his reasons. He thinks the post
office department has all that it can
do Justice to in extending and per-

be derived therefrom by the people.

Crop-weather bulletin.

The first of the series of bulletins for
the present season, issued by the Oregon
State Weather service, has been received
by this office. These bulletins convey
much valuable intelligence for the pro-
ducers. The following is the report for
Eastern Oregon:
Weather-The weather conditions in
eastern sections during the winter were
similar to those encountered in the west
ern portions; the weather was cool and
the precipitation excessive. The pre-
cipitation in the form of snow in the
counties of Union, klamath, Lake and
Harney. In the Columbia river valley
counties mostly rain fell. Since the goth
of March the sunshine has been much
more than the average, showers have
been less frequent and the temperature
warmer.
Crops-The season is later than the
average. Cool weather has hindered
progress in vegetation This condition
is more noticeable in the counties south
and east of the Columbia river valley.
where the presence of snow has DELAYED
farming operations. However, farmers
hail with delight the present favorable
conditions, knowing that the moist con-
dition of the soil will produce fattering
results. In counties where farming is
done by irrigation, the ground is wet
deeper than it has been for years.
Much moisture is expected from melting
