Bryan, Bryan, Bryant

Times Mountaineer, August 2S:
This is all you hear from Oregon to
the Missippi river, says 1. j. Norman,
who has just returned from a visit to
Missouri. He says In the cities and
on the railroad trains everywhere he
has been the Nebraska statesman and
the cause Of silver are being generally
discussed, while Major Mckinley and
gold are scarcely mentioned. The
merchants and farmers OF Missouri
and other Middle Western states he
visited are strong advocates of "sound
money" but they put different inter-
pretatlon on the term than do some
of the newspaper writers of the day.
They hold that silver is the soundest
of "sound moneys" while gold is the
money Of appreciation. Mr.. Norman
says the universal opinion in sections
he has visited is that Bryan will carry
every state west of the Mississippi
and all those south of Pennsylvania,
while Indiana, Illinois, and New York
are believed to be going his way, and
possibly Ohio may give her vote to
him,

Oregon Crops.


For week ending August 81, 1896:
Crops-During the past 10 days, the
weather having been exceptionally
favorable for harvest, farmers have
forced their harvesting and threshing
operations. Harvest is over, except
that there are some fields Of late-sown
oats and wheat still remaining green,
some of which will be, cut for hay.
However, the late-sown spring oat
crop, which four weeks ago was
thought unfit for any purpose, has
improved considerably, 80 that much
of It will be cut and threshed, and
that which remains will make fairly
good hay. Late-sown wheat, though
thin, has filed better than was ex-
pected; it is expected To make about
half of crop. Recent favorable
weather has done much to ripen the
late-sown grain crop. Threshing is
practically at an end. All the fall
and early sown grain crops have all
been threshed and many threshing
bands are disbanding. Should rain
come 1t could not damage anything
but would be Of benefit in preparing
the ground for the plow.
Disappointment is felt in the yield
Of grain. As a rule the grain crop
wheat and OATS failed TO reach the
average. Many are OF the opinion
that the crop amounted TO about two
thirds Of an average crop. Indica-
tions point TO larger grain crop next
year. For some time summer-failow-
ing has been going on. Many farmers
are prepared to seed their next years
crop. In Marion, Washington and
Yamhill counties there seems to be
more summer-fallow than at this sea-
son last year. This season has been
unusually good for the corn; there
have been more warm nights than is
common for Western Oregon. Pota-
toes, garden truck and pastures have
improved. Potatoes are free from
blight except In some sections OF the
coast counties.
Hops will turn out good yield, but
will be picked later than usual; they
are free from lice or mold. Cultivated
hops look very promising. A Wash
ington county hopgrower states that
hops will be be heavy and ready for
picking in about two weeks. A grower
at Aurora, Marion county, states that
there are good crops of hops in his
section which will not be picked for
lack OF means. Hops have ripened
rapidly during the past week, and
some forward varieties In Lane county
are picked and in market, showing
good quality. AT Springfield, Lane
county, picking will commence next
week. The hop burrs are better
formed than they have been for two
years. Rain on Sunday and today, IL
continued, may tend to cause the hops
TO mold.
Complaint is made in Curry county
VI prunes dropping prematurely, also
that the fruit is not as clean as usual.
apples and pears are rippening; they
are not abundant. Petite prunes are
Hpening in the southern counties;
'hey are large, OF fiue quality, but
hght In yield. The only mention of
disease Of fruit comes from Lane
county, in which correspondent
states that the apples are infested
win the Goblin moth and the plums
and prunes with scab.
Josephine county viii have large
crop OF beams they are rapidly ap-
p'Oaching maturity. The second crop
= clOSer hay has been secured. Farm
work is well advanced.

Portland Orecnnian-


One of Mr.. Slater's illustrations invites
analysis. He complains that our silver is
bought for Oriental coinage, and that 2
shillings' worth OF il buys labor and COM
modities ia the East which once cost
shilliugs in gold. This is the old story
that prices and wages in the East have not
increased with the fail in value OF the
money in which they are paid. II this is
true. so much the worse for the laborers
and producers OF commodities for sale in
the East. The condition Mr.. Slater finds
under the silver standard in the East is
one in which labor for production and for
wages is paid in money which will buy
just half as much as the money of account
in circulation twenty years ago. These are
the conditions. II appears. which he and
his fellow laborers I'm the free coinage
propaganda wish to set up In this country.
And yet they appeal for support 10 Just
the producing and wage-working classes
who would he the greatest sufferers by
such 4 reduction in the purchasing power
OF money.

SEATTLE. MONDAY, FEB. o.


The people OF the city OF Seattle who are
called upon to pay the cost of the new
charter may now put on their thinking
caps and look backward.
When the cry started for thorough re-
vision Of the charter. applauded by few
men who hoped to make political capital
out of the excitement. the Post-Intelli-
gencer declared that the present chatter
was in the main good law, and that only
n few changes were necessary 10 greatly
improve IL. We expressed the opinion that
the present city council. which had cut
of many of the expenses supposed TO be
caused by the charter. were fully COM
petent by reason OF their experience to
make all the amendments necessary. The
upon the commission could have i'm
pressed itself upon the council, and almost
every amendment OF consequence would
have been made. The work OF the COM
mission ahundantly proves this.
The Seattle Times ts5.5ss5o) and the Sc
attic News ca7o25O became intensely
alarmed on behalf of tho dear people and
urged that expense should not be permit
ted to stand In the way.
The expense has been about as follows:
Supreme court proceedings. probably 500:
cost OF special election. $500: cost OF COM
mission. $500: advertising. sl.ie250. total,
H.26a.5o.
Only the prompt and determined stand
taken by the city council. in a great emer-
gency. prevented the cost amounting to
sS.ss.
is there any taxpayer OF this city who
now considers that the work OF the COM
mission was worth si.2ss. %. as eomnares
with what nigh, have been accomplished
by the city council without one dollars out
lay. except for advertising the amend
ments. perhaps soc?
Had the advise OF the Post-TnteIligencer
been taken the city would have been saved
5000.
IL cannot claim Tire credit for foresight
which must be accorded TO the Times and
News IL Gid not contemplate. as they ev-
identity Cid. what = nice round sum there
WIS in sight for one or the other Of them.
This may account for the fact, as the Times
admits. that IL did not seriously attempt
