WHEAT CHARTERS.

Locally the WHEAT market is very
quiet. the price Of wheat has gone down
to 50 cents for club and So for bluestem.
This. is the result Of inactivity in all
the world markets The pres
ent ship rate is 426, with prospect Of
another raise, and consequent fall in
the price Of grain. The shipowners are
right in il, and the wheat owners are
up against II for a time, but prices must
go up some time in the not distant fu-
ture. Shippers from the Northwest are
signing for the time to come when the
United States will have a merchant ma
rine. and foreigners cannot have such
a sure cinch on the situation. A feet
of vessels in Portland tomorrow would
doubtless cause a lowering Of charters.
a rise in price paid for grain and
strong. healthy market.-Goldendale
Agriculturist.
viii the Agricuturist accept point
er from the Astorian? The last SEN
tence in the item above quoted tells
the story: "A fleet Of vessels in Port
land tomorrow would doubtless cause
a lowering of charters, rise in hrice
paid for grain and a strong, healthy
market" But the Agriculturist will
look a long time before it sees a fleet
of vessels in Po-tland, especially one Of
the kind the Agriculturist refers to
a feet Of unchartered ships competing
with each other for the grain Of the
Inland Empire to supply the unlimited
market of Europe. Can't the Agricul-
turist Understand that one Of the main
purposes in view by the wheat buyers
and transportation companies is to
prevent the contamination so much de-
sired by the wheat producer of a fleet
Of vessels clamoring for the privilege
Of taking his wheat 70 the markets
of Europe? Can't the Agriculturist see
that so long as the main market for
Inland Empire wheat is maintained at
the inaccessible inland port of Portland
the farmers Of the interior will look in
vain for fleet of ships which will ma
terially lower charter rates.
But what does the Agriculturist think
Of the probability of getting such feet
of competing ships in the magnificent
harbor of Astoria, right at the sea-
coast. where there is no expense for
towing, pilOtage or liability of deten-
ton? With the wheat Of the interior
laid down by the railroads at the very
mouth of the Columbia river under
common point railway freight rates
that is, at the charge now made for
carrying it from the place Of production
to the ports of Seattle, Tacoma and
Portland-the Agriculturist would in
truth soon see such a fleet Of ships as
would result in a lowering of charters.
Another thing the Agriculturist
should bear in mind in studying the
wheat question is that wheat buyers,
wheat spectators, even the transporta-
tion companies-in fact, every non-pro-
ducer who gets a graft out Of the farm
ers wheat, can only hope to do 50 in
proportion to the extent to which he
can interpose himself as an obstacle on
the road between the farmer and the
ships which come to the coast seeking
charters in wheat. Doesn't the Agricul-
turist know that every possible ma
neuyer is resOrted to by these middle

women's club hat looks to her-never in
Vain-for a helping hand. There are as
many as three kindergartens which she
supports, and the chief one of these Is
a training school where struggling young
teachers may be helped to help them
selves.
Neither has she neglected the Washing
ton boys. There is a boys home there
conducted by the Episcopal church which
she has furnished with her own good
taste.
But dearer to Mrs. Hearst's heart than
all of these good deeds are her charities
IN the West. She is Missouri woman by
birth and Senator Hearst was a Mis-
sourian. He set out in Western noun
tains to make his fortune. This had been
his ambition ever since boy
1t was in the West that he chose to
seek his golden land. 1t was in the West
that he labored and hoped and despaired
and finally found.
The mining country was therefore sa-
cred to him as the scene of his mightiest
struggles. 1t has remained sacred to his
widow for the memory he left.
The mining towns know her bounty Her
plan of benevolence has for it's keynote
education" In so many lines she has
shown this. Whether it be the teaching
of a score of homeless youngsters or the
endowment of a world-famous university
her aim is ever education. In the dingy
little Montana and Dakota towns that
perch on the sides of brown mountains
she has built libraries that bring a
breath of the great world beyond Many
of the dreary ones who seek and never
ma, or dlS good gold for others profit
many of these find a friendly feeling in

rooms" 1t took some of the mems time
They wandered to the reading room and
the writing room, and they began to write
cautiously spelled letters to Mrs. Hearst
saying THANK you" She was gratified
by the letters. and seeing that her work
was appreciated she added to what She
had already done. She arranged to have
a musicale given every week by nusi-
clans whom she hired for the purpose
The men and the women both enfoved

r I is worth noting what a front rank
woman has held in the education of
j California. Fifty years ago Mrs.
Olive Mann Isbell stood a row of
empty boxes in a room by the old Santa
CARA Mission, and rang her clanllng
Dell to call together the first American
school in our State. The pupils who were
Forthcoming sat on the empty boxes and
bumped little bare heels against the
front of them. There was a hole in the
ceiling where the smoke had leave to
escape, and where it aVailed itself or not
OF It's permission as 1t and the weather
chose.
But In spite of what some might have
thought inconveniences, Mrs Isbell from
Iowa went at her work as If she didn't
mind. which is the best way in the world
TO embarrass inconvenience. Without
adjustable desks or sprng-roller maps or
much be-patented felt erasers, she never
theless taught. She stands in the records
to-day as the founder and teacher of the
first American school of California
1t is not with so different spirit. after
all, although with such widely different
means, that Mrs. Hearst and Mrs. Stan
ford are continuing the work which Mrs
lsbell began. Both of them have had
much to struggle with as did she Both
have had one purpose and have held to
civilization of California.
Mrs, Hearst's work has been lust as
much her own conception as was Mrs.
Isbell's in the old days. The State was
to her mind not offering all the advan-
tages in an educational way that its
young people deserved. Hence she would
take the matter in hand
1t has held good straight through
her life that when Mrs. Hearst saw any
thing which needed attending to. she
promptly attended. She has wanted
things well done and has known thar she
must therefore do them herself. since
her husbands death she has little hv
little grown into the recognition of tns
public as philanthropist Philanthropy
has become profession these days. bmt
there are all sorts and conditions of its
professors. She is of the kind that is NOT
satisfied with the mere giving of money
but must needs give of personality along
with it. '0'-e
