Towne saw more glory ahead and adj
vocated the free and unlimited coin
age of silver without an international
agreement. So did the other speakers.
So far, SO good. Then capital
which had money invested foresaw
the catastrophe which was awaiting
the 100-cent American dollar and
began to withdraw their money from
the market. Cash became scarcer and
scarcer up to the present day when
even such gilt-edged companies as the
Chandler cannot secure money enough
to run their business. The same con-
dition prevailed when the Democrats
tinkered with the tariff and the same
condition will prevail as long as this
party aspired to run the government.
The party does not inspire confidence
and when a nation has no confidence
and no credit they are lost.
The laborer is the man upon whom
the burden will fall for who in the
wide world Is foolish enough to spend
money and pay labor If there is no
chance for interest on your invest
ment. The silver party promise more
money, but how is the laborer to get
the money if he has no work? Will
the city of Ely find it convenient to
live without the miningcorporations?
Give us an honest dollar. Give us
tariff enough on imports to shut out
many of those now coming in. Give
us a chance to manufacture our pro-
ducts in place of bringing the same
from foreign countries and we will be
prosperous. The laborer will receive
work and in consequence must be
paid. The manufacturer will be en-
abled to open his factories and the
farmer to sell his products. Money
will circulate and with the circula-
tion of money will follow better times.

more for his work than he does now.
Does not their present attitude
towards corporations refute this state
ment? Do they not now maintain
the mine owners and other corpora
tions have all the money? Does it
help you if you have no work? Must
a man who has saved a fortune, give
it up to some one who has not saved?
The statements made by the Demo-
pops. says yes.
Kindly examine into the affairs of
our own companies. The Minnesota
company is rich and powerful They
have invested millions in property on
this and the Mesaba range. They
invested large sums Of money before
they ever realized one cent, still they
paid their laborers. Then came the
era when their investments bore
fruit and they sold ore. Things look
ed smooth and everyone found work
and received their money for the
same. All of sudden the Democratic
party began tinkering with the 10
cents duty on iron ore. What was
the result? Wages were cut and
mines were closed. Then the party
dropped from their tinkering and be-
gan to realize that it would not do to
put ore on the free list and after con-
siderable fiddling around finally placed
the tariff at 40 cents per ton ad
yalorum.
They conceded then and there that
tariff was good thing. This year
tariff has nothing to do with the
question at issue. One year it is good
and the next it is nothing says the
Democrat. The years that the duty
was 10 cents per ton,, the wages of
laborerS in the iron industry were
averaged at $3.50. The wages during
the 40 cents per ton duty regime were
averaged at sl.50.
A year ago the party began threat
ening to tinker with our money,
which is recognized the world over as
good money. The movement, on the
spur of the movement gained quite
foothold among the more gullable of
the American people. The per capita
man began to figure how much money
was at hand, the silver mine owner
said give us show, give us free and
unlimited coinage of silver and we
will see that you come out all right.
The shining offers of the mine owners
were listened to and a free silver
party organized. Several good speak
erS were enlisted in the cause among
which was Chas. A. Towne who was
at that time elected to one of the
highest offices the country can give,
congressman. Mr. Towne attracted
considerable attention with his
speeches. He advocated bimetalism
with an international agreement.
The party that had elected Chas. A.
Towne said they were satisfied with
this condition and their platform con-
formed with this idea. Then Mr..

At last it has come. Tuesday eve
ming the Chandler company gave their
men notice that their services would
be no longer required until they could
see their way clear to secure the
necessary cash to carry on the bust
ness. The reasons assigned are that
the docks are full of ore: furnace men
have no sale for their products and
money is SO tight it cannot be secured
on the best Of security such as the
Chandler and Minnesota companies
had to offer and that owing to the
free silver agitation and the uncer-
tainty Of the election, money was at a
premium and those who possessed the
same would not let it go under no
consideration.
The shut down seriously affects
every man, woman and child on this
and the Mesaba range. The entire
properties controlled by the Mime
sofa Iron company are affected and
the entire list of employees of this
company, numbering in the neighbor-
hood OF 1900 men are without employ
ment. What this means in the loss
of wages can easily be figured by any
ordinary scholar.
OF course, the free silver agitator
knows exactly the whichness and the
whyness of the shut down. They go
on to explain that labor was placed in
idleness because the companies wished
to impress upon them that Mckinley
must be elected and that capital is
taking this course to coerce them into
voting the sound money ticket. In
the next breath they inform the
listner that the corporations have all
wards make the assertion the money
is all in England. Their statements
hang together just that way in their
long list of arguments. If the cor
porations have all the money, how in
the name Of common sense can it be
in England?
II the corporations for which you
labor has not money enough to pay
the men. then who is the sufferer?
Take it for granted you have a few
dollars to let out on interest. A man
comes to you and says he would desire

do, you examine into the property.

THE IRON MARKET.


The speculative sales of Southern
iron reported last week left the
market as they found it, so far as
prices are concerned, though it was
to be presumed that in spite of pres
ent feeble consumption there would
be quite a number of buyers whom
the low prices would tempt to make
contracts. But, as has been seen
before, when confidence is lacking the
question of price is entirely secondary.
There are some Southern producers,
at all events selling agents, who cut
the market 25 to 40 cents below what
leading companies will entertain, and
the circulation of these prices has
unsettled buyers who thought the
bottom had been reached. So far as
the supply of metal is concerned
August has improved the situation by
reducing stocks and curtailing pro-
duction, but the statistics of the
trade cut very small figure in such a
time, when the whole business is con-
trolled by outside influences. Bes-
semer iron seems to be a complete
standstill. The weak iron offered at
valley and Ohio river prices, equiyal-
ent to 5000 to $1,000, Pittsburg,
seems to have been taken up and
there is only o nominal market today.
Outside Of that which goes into con-
sumption by way of the foundry.
there is scarcely any Bessemer being
used by those who must go into the
market for it. One Bessemer mill,
with two lotion converters, could
have supplied in Fortnight all the
billets and sheet and tin plate bars
that were sold by all the members of
the billet pool in July, and the Au-
gust record was probably not far from
the same. There is no change in the
price of Bessemer biilets, but the
action Of the Cresson meeting of the
pool in fixing the price Of open-hearth
steel al 50 a ton above the Bessemer
basis will stop the competition of
open-hearth, from mills that were
able to sell it at the pool price of
BesSemer. As to the operation of the
mills, general statement would not
differ from that of the past several
weeks. Though the season of buying
is here, it would seem that the
aggregate of current orders for finish
ed material is less than it has been.
Some mills are running every alter
nate week, others two days out a
week, and yet Others are practically
at a stand-still. All prices, except
for beams and channels, are yielding.
though some mills have adopted the
policy of quoting fixed price and
letting others struggle for the frag-
mentary orders that can only be had
by going below the cost of intermit-
tent operation.-Iron Trade Review.

This Years Fruit Crop.

The results of Observer Pague's special
inquiry as to the Oregon fruit crop are
briefly these.
Clatsop, Tillamook. Lincoln, Coos and
Curry, and the western portion of Lane
and Douglas counties = Few, if any,
peaches will be grown this year. The
frosts injured the peaches and the rains
killed what the frosts left. The prune,
pear and apple crops we're slightly in
jured by the rain, but unless more in
jury result there will be fair crop.
Columbia-Fruit considerably thinned
out.
Clackamas = Peaches, apricots and
nectarines nearly all killed. Plum,
prune and cherry injured by the rain.
Washington and Yamhill = Peaches
nearly all killed. Cherries slightly
damaged. Other fruits are in fine con-
dition.
Wasco-Reports from Wasco county are
very cheering concerning the fruit out
look. An occasional report sets forth
some damage which the cherry aud early
strawberry crops sustained from frost.
1t is thought what little damage has
been done fruit was caused by frost and
not by the excessive rains of the past
three weeks. correspondent writes

seldom that the trees are 30 loaded with
blossoms and buds" 1t is the impress
sion that the strawberry crop will reach
market 10 to II days later than usual,
owing somewhat to frost injuries TO early
bloom and partly to unsuitable weather.
Peaches have been hurt in all sections
and especially in the Hood River Sec
tion the trees are troubled with curl
leaf. Apricots are doing well; apples
are coming into full bloom and grapes
are making the usual growth.

Wnits Long for a DRINK.

On Laurel hill in Bridgeton, N. j.,
there stands a house between whose
walls is hidden a quart bottle of the
purest applejack. The bottle has rested
there for 80 years, and has, according to
the old story told, eleven years more to
stay. When the house was built, 80
years ago, quart bottle was filed with
Jack" and tightly sealed and plastered
in the wall by man who had the house
built. The bottle is not to be taken
from its dark recess until the son of the
man who placed it there for him be-
comes so years of age. The hoy" is
now 80 years of age, and in all these
years has kept true to the promise made
in the days of his youth to his father
not to touch the bottle of applejack
until he reaches the half-century mark
in 1ife's journey.

a Blacksmith Finds His Tool to BE q
Nugget of Pure Gold.
Curious things sometimes happen in
the gold bearing regions of the north
west. The Blackfoot (I6Iaho) News tells
OF a somewhat remarkable experience
which occurred to blacksmith at that
town lately.
The smith, whose name is Farmer, had
in his shop grindstone which he wished
to taper OFF, For this purpose a small
stone was requisite. So he went out of
doors and made search for stone of the
right size and shape.
He found one somewhat smaller than
4 hens egg, and returning to his shop
began to smooth down the edge of the
erindstone with it. AHe had not
.'smoothed'' long before he thought that
the stone worked rather queerly, and
was, in fact, too soft to grind the stone.
He took il to his anvil and broke it in
half, and then he found that he had
picked up nugget of pure gold.
Unfortunately, it was a rather small
nugget. He sold it for $5.S2 cents, and
though this was a very good price for "a
pebble picked up in the street, it was not
wealth.
