An exhibition of superb Journalistic
nerve was the claim of the Denver
Post that its expose of democratic
''duplicity'' served to elect Senator
Teller. The Post fooled nobody but
ITSELF. In the nature of things. that
paper and it's proprietors could have
no influence among reputable people.
After all is said on either side of the
two republican factions. the fact
stands out clearly that Goudy. Stewart
Farley. Stevens. Vivian. ct al. stand
for the responsibility of that party.

THE SITUATION.

1t cannot be said the farmers of
this valley are unwilling to raise sug-
ar beets. This erroneous impression
has been gaining some ground The
truth is that under favoring and
agreeable conditions. many of them
would be glad to devote portion. if
not all. of their time and land to the
growing of beets. Their hesitancy in
signing contracts can be ascribed to
but one cause-experience. They
know what the factory people may
riehtfully demand of them: they
know also what they may in justice
ask of the sugar manufacturers. Beet
raising is not the easiest pursuit
known to man. There is no use of
attempting to conceal the fact. 1t
requires hard. persistent. patient la
Dor to care for a crop of beets The
farmer knows this. and knowing it.
they will naturally refrain from ever
again contracting to furnish beets to
a sugar factory unless that factory
holds out to them good. reasonable
offer.
Sugar beet factories are almost
without exception big-paying PROPOSE
tions to the owners. 1t Us said that
one institution of the kind in Utah
is paying 20 per cent dividends. AS
suredly, factory will not prosper
unless management is efficient.
A large supply of the finest kind of
beets would not keep factory on it's
feet If the men who had charge of it
did not know their business. From
all of which. the deduction can be
made with some degree of accuracy
that the failure of the Grand Junction
factory in the past was not due who'll
ly to shortcomings on the part of the
farmers.
1t would be downright pity if this
city should lose its factory. 1t would
mean more than the mere loss of
great industry 1t would proclaim
Grand Junction to the rest of the
world as city that was not holding
backwards. We want no such reputa-
tion Some means must be devised
to keep the factory here. to start it
/ running and keep it going. If this
will necessitate the bringing in of for
eign colonies. even that alternative.
with the evils that might attend it
ought to be resorted to. There is
not particle Of time to be wasetd at
present. If the farmres of this val
ley are to raise a crop Of beets for
next falls usage, they will have to
put themselves IN, readiness very soon.
When the final conferenc, comes the

the duty of every citizen to use his

The opera is unquestionably the best
medium that jefferson De Angels,
who is one of the most popular of
comic opera comedians, has ever had.
1t enables him to be seen in char
acter that is admirably adapted to his
quaint style and method and there is

as exceptionally strong. Edgar Nor

hit as Sir Archibald, as does Mar

Since Miss Lulu CHASER has scored
such a big hit in Dolly Warden" the
comic opera in which she is to appear
at Walla Walla, Wednesday evening,
December I'd, there has been
quite a revival in the fad which was
so great a few years ago for naming
feminine garments after that fictitious
character. A number of these articles
of adornment are now known as the
Dolly Warden this or that. The Dol
ly Warden" dress proper however, ac-
cording to the CHASER idea is worn by

TRADE WITH CANADA
We Are Selling Her More
Than Britain Sends
IWENTY-ONE MILLION The tIGURt
Principal Goods Imported by Canada
Were Breadstuffs, Machinery
and Implements.


WASHINGTON, D. c., Nov. 30
An official report just issued by the
Canadian government, and forwarded
to the state department at Washing
ton by the American consul at st.
Johns, Quebec, shows that during
the last fiscal year Canada bought
from the United States dutiable goods
to the value of $21,04S, $50, and from
Great Britain goods to the value of
only $S,942, 900. This wide difference
between Canada's trade with the Unit
ed States and with the mother cOun-
try, Notwithstanding the trade prefer
entail i'm favor Of the latter and the
tariff restrictions against the former,
will form the basis of a good deal of
argument for those on both sides of
the line who think that reciprocity
treaty between the two countries
ought to be formulated at the earliest
moment If the trade of Canada with
the United States is almost three
times as large as with Great Britain,
despite the handicaps, what would
II be II the haudcapS were removed!
The principal goods imported by Can
ada from the United States were
breadstuffs, machinery, manufactures
of iron and steel leather goods,
paper goods and agricultural imple-
ments. The total for each of these
lines is upwards of 100000, and for
some of them it is upwards of $1,000
600, notably agricultural implements.
Canada, for various reasons, among
them loyalty to the British empire,
has been trying for years to discourag &c
trade with the United States. AS
one means of discoura cement, she
gave Great Britain preferential of
33 1-3 per cent on certain goods and
as another, she erected a tariff wall
against this country. But, in spite of
these things, American trade has
steadily increased in Canada, and is
increasing.
This leads naturally to the question
of when the joint high commission is
The Evening statesman. [volume] (Walla Walla, Wash.) 1903-1910, 1903-11-30

likely to meet for the drafting of a
probably not until after the presiden-
tial campaign in this country, if then.
The president, while standing for re-
ciprOcity on principle, and favoring
a treaty with Canada for special rea-
sons, does not want anything done
in the coming sessions of congress,
that will give the democrats any
larger opportunity than they will nor
mally have to emphasize the fact that
the existing tariff is too high. AS it
is, the indications point to a red hot
tariff debate during the whole of the
special session, practically, and if the
joint high commission were to be
called for sitting in the winter, for
the preparation of another treaty to
be put alongside those which have for
so long a time been slumbering in the
senate committee on foreign relations,
the democrats might almost be able
to make the tariff an issue in the
presidential campaign. So, for tacti-
chief advisers do not want the joint
high commission to meet within the
next tWelve-m month.
Whether it will be possible to ac-
cOmplish anything after that, is one
of the uncertainties Of the future
Meanwhile, Senator Fairbanks, of In
diOna, chairman of the American
branch Of the high JOINTS" is per-
fectly willing to proceed. He under
stands that if he could secure the
preparation and ratification of a sat
isfactory trade treaty with Canada.
he would send his stock up a good
many nOtChes, and possibly make
himself available as presidential
candidate in 1908; but he is too good
a politician to urge the matter at a
time when the other leaders of his
party are against it.
But meanwhile trade between the
two countries will continue to in
crease. With a proper trade arrange
ment, Canada would soon be far and
away our best customer. The west
ern part of that country is filling up
with former American citizens, who
have taken to their new home a fond
ness for American institutions and
wares. Reciprocity would probably
double our trade with that country in
a single year, in the opinion of ex-
perts here, and in ten years would
bring the two countries so close to-
sether, commercially, as to make the
political gulf separating them insig-
narrow.

MOVED TO CANADA.

SEATTLE, Wash, Nov. 2O.-With
| his cannery located in British terri
| tory and his fishing grounds in Amer
lean waters, j. S. Churchill, of New
York, is compelled to choose between
seeking a new location and doing
business at a heavy sacrifice of time
ard money.
Mr.. Churchill is located on Prince of
Wales island, which was given
to Canada by the Alaskan boundary
commission. His cannery is the only
building save those of the United
States government, located on either
Wales or Pearce islands, and he is the
only one seriously affected by the re-
suit of the settlement of the fight.
The cannery packed $4,000 cases of
salmon, mostly pinks, last year. 1t
was planned to increase the capacity
to $4,000 cases next season, and even
after the location is changed this
may be done. 1t would be impossible
to continue operations in British Co
lumbia on the scale that has been I'M
dertaken in the past, and Mr.. Church.
i'll is now looking for a new location.
There is practically no sale for
pinks in Canada, and the price is
hammered down so low that the sal
mon cannot pay the duty that would
entitle them to entrance into the
Uunted States. The foreign market
is not sufficient inducement to keep
Mr.. Churchill on Wales island.
I'VE have not decided where to
move, but l think we shall find a new
location for our cannery within a few
weeks" said Mr.. Churchill. We will
not continue operations as a Cana
dian institution, and could not. any
way, with our fishing grounds located
in American waters.
The principal value of Wales and
Pearce islands lies in the extensive
timber that covers the ground. There
is excellent hemlock, spruce and yell
low cedar on the islands that have
never been touched. The Indians will
not cut any trees that cannot be felled
into the water. AS result, the timber
back from the water has not been
touched.
1T would be difficult matter to
place any estimate of value on tim
Der on the two islands. A small mill
could not work up the supply to ad-
vantage, and it is doubtful whether
large milling interests would under
take the problem at present. The yell
low cedar is the most valuable wood
on the islands. l do not know whether
the spruce and hemlock would find a
ready market, but the cedar is certain
to be taken up at some time.
There is no harbor on Pearce island
and only one on Wales. This fact has
probably given rise to the impression
| that the islands are not valuable. The
government has erected stone store
| buildings on both islands, which will
now have to be abandoned. 1t is not
yet known whether there exists any
valuable mineral properties on the is
lands. The two are mineralized, but
no effort base been made to ascertain
the extent Of the values"

Snhstitntea for Coal.

Necessity is the surest promoter of
invention. The recent coal strike
causing the prices to advance to al
most beyond reach has resulted in the
granting of over 1000 patents on ma
chimes to burn either oil or gas. The
necessity for a family medicine that
could be relied on absolutely in cases
of stomach. liver and kidney ailments
led to the introduction of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters sc years ago. Today
it is world famed as a cure for loss of
appetite, insomnia, nervousness, flat
ulency, Indigestion, dyspepsia, cOnsti-
patton and biliousncss. Try a bottle
,and be convinced of its value. 1t con-
tains nothing that will injure the

specially adapted for restoring

weak from long sickness or those in
need of a tonic. Don't accept a sub
