The Oregon Industrial Exposition
will open at Portland, Saturday even
ing September 19, and continue one
month. AS an Exposition of the re-
sources, products and industries of the
entire Pacific Northwest, it will far
surpass any of its predecessors. Its
financial success is assured by guar
anty fund, and with this to rely upon
the managers have gone ahead with
boldness and confidence to gather the
most complete exhibit of everything
entering into the life and prosperity
of this region ever brought together.
Many alterations are being made in
the interior arrangements of the huge
structure in which the Fair is held
especially in providing greater facili-
ties for the enjoyment of visitors.
Special attention is being paid to those
who attend in many ways besides the
music and exhibits. Every night
something special will be given for
the amusement of visitors. Frequent
excursions, at extremely low rates of
fare, will be run on all railroads, and
special rates will be given at other
times on all lines in Oregon, Washing
ton and Idaho. Both in the variety
and quality of the exhibits and in it's
special attractions the Fair will be far
superior to any of its predecessors.

Lumber Staggering Under q Load.

| another instance of the disastrou,
effects of the Stree silver crazen or
local business interests came to ligh,
recently In conversation with Geo.
w Stetson, the well-known lumbermau
OF Seattle. AS he sat in the hand
some new Office of the Stetson e. Post
Mill Company he seemed to be anv.
thing but cheerful, and he was not
long in giving the reporter good grounds
for his discouragement.
"The month of July" said he, "was
the best business month we have had
for five years, and the outlook for busi-
ness was particularly good. This
means good deal to mill as large as
ours, for we have to plan our stock
ahead OF time. 1t is utterly imprac-
tlcable to run business like this
without thus forcasting the future.
"Well, all during July, orders we're
coming in every day, and we fully cx-
pected to run over time until Noyem-
Der 10 and possibly longer. But what
has this free silver craze done? It has
simply knocked business in the head.
l can't go into all the details without
giving away trade secrets, but can
show you little correspondence that
will convince the most skeptical."
Mr.. Stetson then gave the reporter
the benefit of some of his Eastern cor
respondence, which was exactly in line
with other recent instances in this
city of the paralyzing effects of free
silver talk. One of the chief lines of
trade which this mill has cultivated is
with big Eastern car building COM
panies. 1t has been the habit of these
companies to indicate to Stetson e.
Post some time in advance of actual
orders what kind and amount of stock
would probably be needed by certain
date.
"Now look at these letters" said Mr..
Stetson; "they don't exactly cancel
orders already placed with us, but after
all they practically amount to that.
You see each one of these six letters
is from prominent Eastern car build
er. Each of them says in substance,
"Go slow; we do not intend contract
ing for further business while the sill
yer excitement prevails
"Now, sir" continued Mr.. Stetson,
emphatically, "what better demonstra-
tion of the bad effects of free silver
coinage can man ask than that con-
tanned in these letters? There are
representative business men, whom
the very possibility OF weak financial
system causes to compress their bust.

"The great difference in price between
silver and gold is premium upon ex-
portation from silver-usipg to gold-using
countries. 1t has stimulated the erection
of manufactures in countries that are
upon silver basis, and having led to the
establishment of such factories it now
stimulates the sale of their products in
this and other countries that are upon
gold basis. Already it has passed from
the domain of theory to the realm of fact
that japan is able to compete in the
United States with American factories.
Thus the home market is threatened with
competition of the gravest and most
dangerous character, and the menace will
continue in its present serious form so
long as our minis are closed to the M
restricted coinage of silver.
"But the evil effect of silver's demone-
tization is not confined to competition OF
the kind just mentioned. The agricul-
tural population of this country contrib
utes very greatly and possibly more than
any other class to the maintenance of the
home market. Whatever, therefore, de-
prives farmers of the ability to buy hurts
to that extent the American market for
manufactured goods. The difference in
price between silver and gold stimulates
the shipment of wheat and other farm
products from countries that are on a
silver basis to Europe ana this in turn
forces down the price of those products
here. Their price is furthermore depre-
ciated by the simple fact that gold has
been greatly enhanced in value. 1t ia
truism to say that this appreciation of
gold has forced down the price of farm
products. All these forces combined have
almost destroyed the power OF farmers
to purchase because they receive so little
for what they sell, and thus the home
I market is being weakened internally
| Under such conditions therefore it will
be immensely interesting to note what
treatment the tariff question will receive
at the hands of New Mexico Republicans
assembled in convention at Albuquerque
on Wednesday next. What will they do?
Santa Fe daily New Mexican. [volume] (Santa Fe, N.M.) 1885-1897, 1896-03-20
WHAT WILL THEY 90?

Western Republicans have certainly
got their high protectionist brethren of
New England squarely on the hip in
their new theory regarding the tariff and
silver. Already massive stone wall has
been built mp between the two factions
of the party. New England and the east
ern Republicans demand tariff after the
fashion of the Reed-Dingley bill, recently
SO ANONYMOUSLY defeated by the silver
state senators. That is, they want abso-
lutte protection for the manufacturing
districts, but care nothing for the wool
growers and producing industries of the
west and south. Supporters of that
species of tariff constitute one class of
autl-McKinleyites. Again in the central
western states chiefly are the straight out
McKinleyites, those who, like the Wiscon-
sin Republicans, believe in gold pro-
lection, reciprocity and Mckinley
The other class of anti McKinleyites
com prise the following U. y. senators;
H. NJ. Teller, Francis E. Warren, Lee
Mantle, Geo L. Shoup, J. O. Pritchard,
Edward O. Wolcott, John H. Mitchell,
Frank J. Cannon, R. F. Pettigrew, Fred
Z. Dubois, H. G. Hansbrough, T. H. Car
ter, Geo. @. Perkins, J. d. Cameron, G. D.
Clark, Arthur Brown.
Here we have a formidable array OF
Republican talent that is dramatically
opposed to the Reed-Dingley New En-
gland idea as we'll as to the Mckinley
tariff scheme. These latter insist that
congress might labor till doomsday in
passing tariff bills, as strong or even
stronger than the Mckinley bill, and YET
accom- plish no good for the wool growers
and agricultural interests in general. The
Denver Republican clearly states the case
ms western Republicans view it, We
