The Dalles has a single industry
which every year affects the price of
all wheat marketed at The Dalles.
The Diamond Flourip9 Mills, whose
product sells in all markets at the
highest figure, and which consumes
from $4,000 to $4,000 bushels of
grain annually, selects its wheat from
the large amount marketed here,
taking only the best; and for the
privilege of this selection pays from
one to two cents more per bushel
than the warehouse price. This fact
has a constant tendency to pull the
market price up, and, without ques-
tion, does raise the price among all
buyers here. The same fact would
be true as to wooden mill, could we
once get good one established. We
pay no more for our four-indeed
we pay less-than when we shipped
it from abroad, although the farmer
gets more for his wheat. The same
would be true as to woolen goods.
The farmer, selling direct to the
manufacturer, is encouraged to raise
the best possible grade, so as to sell
to the mill and get the highest price.
The same principle is applicable
possibly not SO apparently SO, but
just as truly-to the industries of
the nation. The nearer the producer
comes to the consumer or manufact-
uIer, the more ready is the sale, the

who believes that this government
cannot and should not attempt to

holders thereof to force them as pay
ment upon those from whom they
received dollars worth 100 cents;
every man who believes that the in
dusties of the American people
should be encouraged; every man
who has suffered from the unwisc
legislation of the past four years
every man who desires to see an cx-
perienced and capable statesman
elected to the presidency, come to

his aid and encouragement in the

Almost the first utterance which es-
capped Bryan's lips after his nomination
was: This does not mean keep off the
grass, boys" His declaration and his
thought was that when he became the
highest executive officer of this great
nation the theories of Coxey, of Altgeld
and of Waite should be encouraged. II
he meant this, be is unfit to occupy the
presidential Office. If he did not mean
it, he is demagogue and all the more
unfit for the exalted Office.

In 1871 the United States had 52,-
920 miles of railroad, which paid
annual dividends aggregating $780,
456,681. In 1894 we had 1S1,454
miles paying annua! dividends of
$85, 5,278,669. The mileage increased
$50 per cent; the dividends increased
81 per cent. The average freight
rates in 1894 were less than one-h half
the average freight rates in 1874;
and all very considerably less than
the average rate in Europe. This is
one of the 'sblightlng, deadly infiu-
ences" of the bi-metallic system,
under which we have been living
since 1878; the system Bryan calls
the single gold standard.

He is not the first man who employs

make like declaration. The election
of Bryan means the withdrawal of cap
ital from active employment, and this
means the end CT employment for those
who are now employed.
