which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach, putting it up against the
heart. This interferes with the action Of

A great howl went up in certain
quarters a year or two ago to the eff
feet that though times were prosper
Gus the increased cost of living was
so great that it completely offset any
increase I'm wages. The United States
bureau of labor set on foot an inves-
tigation to see how much truth there
was in all this, and the result shows
that the increase of wages in the last
five years has been greater than the
increase in the cost of living.

merchantable products. The west is
creating new wealth so much more
rapidly than it is actually needed that
flush times" are here, and nearly every
one not only has money enough for the
necessities of life but also for its lgxu-
ries. The great expansion in the lum-
Der business, and many millions which
have been brought into Oregon, Wash
ington and Idaho for the purchase of
timber lands, have been great contrib
uting factors in this prosperity; but 1t
is not all due to this particular line of
industry.
The three states are now marketing
crop of wheat and barley, which,
though smaller in size than some of its
predecessors, is selling at figures
which promise to bring the total rev
enues from the crop up very near to
record proportions Hops are selling
at 20 cents per pound, and with the
exception of prunes, which are dull,
fruit Is bringing large sums of money
into the state. Livestock. dairy and
other farm products are also command
ing full figures, and, viewed from a
commercial standpoint, the old year is
certainly going out under flying col
ors. The approaching presidential year
may be viewed with misgivings in less
favored sections of our land, but as yet
no shadow of distrust, has fallen across
the threshold of Oregon and Wash
ington, and there is every prospect for
a continuation of the era of good times
which has made 1903 the most pros
porous year that we have ever exper-
fenced.
Projects for internal development on
a larger scale than ever before planned
are more numerous than they have
ever been in this state, and we have
positive assurance that many of them
will be rushed to completion during the
coming year. The only depression now
noted in American grain markets is
due to the excellent condition of the
fall-sown fields, and, as a continuation
of this condition will mean added
riches next year, it is viewed with
equanimity. Under such circumstances
the boyle man who stalks abroad just
prior to a presidential election will
have poor success in frightening any
one in Oregon or Washington.

No one need worry about the real
prosperity of this country. With the
heavy movement of grain and cotton
and the arrangements already perfect
ed by the iron and steel interests to
enter the foreign markets again, there
will soon be a revival of export BUSH
ness The farmer is prosperous, with
less debts and more money than ever
before in the history of the country.
The majority of manufacturers are do
ing well and the railroads have the as
surance of all the business they can
handle during the coming winter.
There is no doubt of a vast volume of
trade during the next year and it will
be carried on with legitimate and fair
profits to all concerned.

Where the Shoe Pinches
(Teton Peak.)

The opposition to the sugar beet
bounty over in the west end of the
state is but another illustration of the
selfishness which has taken possession
of some of the narrow contracted
cusses over there. The howl is going
up that 1t is an imposition upon the
people to impose this bounty. but they
have the unmitigated gall to collect a
big tax from the people of Eastern
Idaho for an old wagon road which is
of little benefit to anyone. The sugar
beet bounty bill is responsible for the
location within the state of one of the
greatest industries of the west, and
because Bingham and Fremont coun-
ties were the places selected for the
erection of the factories because of the
unlimitd agricultural area, some Disc
fellows are going to try and get the
supreme court to knock out the act of
the legislature. Five years will see
the state reimbursed for every cent of
bounty paid on sugar by the increase of
taxes on these gigantic concerns, and
thousands of people will be given en-
ployment in the meantime.

A Kentucky woman has asserted her
independence in an original manner. A
teacher of physical culture in the state
college, Miss Offutt, gave her hand in
marriage to Judge Stout, man of
wealth. Judge Stout has a comforta-
BILE home, but after being wooed and
won over, Miss Offutt declined to give
up her position as teacher, and she still
sticks to 1t.
Mrs. Stout was criticised for desiring
to retain her position after marriage,
and she answers her critics in an open
card, in which she says she is of the
class of professional women that works
because the occupation saves her life
from being purposeless.
My work has been purely matter
of conscience. l feel very sorry for an
occasional young woman in society
whose higher intelligence is insulted by
a senseless round of gayety. / am sorry
for that young woman if she lacks the
courage to change that life into a
method while to herself and to other
people. So far as marriage is con-
cerned. l was engaged when l was
studying at New Haven, and was en-
gagged to be married before I accepted
my present state college position. Any
woman can maintain a home and a pro-
fession IL she cares to. 1t Is a matter
of attending fewer card parties. that is

IRRIGATION A FACTOR

There is widespread attention now
directed toward irrigation projects In
the-arid regions of the west. and cap;-
talgseeking investment is readily inter-
ested In such a proposition.
There is little doubt then that the
lewiston Waha irrigation project will
Dc capitalized If the engineers report
is favorable and that 1t will be is a
foregone conclusion.
The promoters of the enterprise have
given ample evidence that they have
faith In the proposition and there now
seems nothing in the way of an early
contamination of the deal which will
give another great enterprise to back
Eewiston's prosperity.
The lewiston waha irrigation
scheme provides for the reclamation of
$4,000 acres of semi-arid lands lying
between Lewiston and Lake waha,
/, converting 1t from ordinary farm lands
10 orchard and vineyard purposes.
The lands today are worth from $40
20 s25 per acre for the purpose of rails
ing grain hataunder sufficient water the
same lands will be worth easily 500
per acre and under cultivation FIVE
times as much.
The success OF irrigation in this VAL
ley under the climatic conditions that
prevail has been fully demonstrated.
The soil andf climate. are highly favor
able to fruit culture aud the product
finds ready markettin the vast region
Just east of the Rocky mountains
where higher altitude and severer
climate precludes such an industry.
Fruit growing in Lewiston valley is
now one of its most promising indus
tniee hut as this project alone will add
ave times the present area and pro-
pertfonately increase the output, it's
magnitude anda Importance becomes
ane of our greatest factors.

Western Prosperity Not Threatened
portland oregonian.l


The financial uncertainty which al
ways precedes a presidential election"
is not yet seriously in evidence in the
west, and the Pacific tier of states is
still bowling along on the RICH road
to prosperity. Portland bank clearings
for the week ending saturday were the
largest on record for a corresponding
week. exceeding those for the CORE
spending week last year by over $780,
900. The Oregon metropolis easily
makes the best showing of any of the
North Pacific ports, for, while this city
shows a gain of over 100000. Seat
ties clearngs are $3.50, 900 less and Ia
coma's 5000 less than on the CORE
spending week last year. Admitting
that the coming of presidential
struggle does affect trade, it is inter-
esting to note the wonderful increase
since the last prelude to a changing
administration.
Four years ago Portland bank clear
ings for the second week in December
were $2.136131, compared with $685.
SIG for the same week this year. Sim
liar gains are shown by both Tacoma
and Seattle, and they have been uni
form in all of the North Pacific cities
for many months. Business activity
as reflected by these bank clearings
springs from a much more substantial
foundation in the west than in the east
The increase, which will be found to
be pretty evenly divided through all
lines of trade. is due almost solely
to the conversion of raw material into

IN THE FAR EAST

The latest reports concerning the
Korean imbroglio are to the effect that
Japan can not accept the Russian pro-
posal and war talk is reviving.
Russian aggression in the far east
has long been a subject of current COM
ment. Russia is dominent in Man
ehuria and though the powers de-
INJURED to that proposition they have
tacitly agreed to let it go providing
that the open door is maintained and
Russia having secured this advance
now takes another step and wishes to
extend her influence to Korea where
Japan has been for many years the
ruling factor.
Japan objects to this invasion. know
ing that if she is crowded off the con-
tinent she has lost all hope of becom-
ing world power. She needs Korea as
an additional area for colonization,
ifeSree there is an irreconcilable con-
ftict between Japan and Russia.
Both nations are preparing for war
while negotiating for peace The pro-
posaI from Japan was that Russia
should remain dominant in Manchuria
with the understanding that Japan
should not be disturbed in Korea, both

Russia replied to this by the note
now under advisement proposing to
give up southern Korea to Japan but
maintaining her hold on northern
Korea where she wants an open winter
port Japan rejects this note and the
conflict is on pending further negotia-
tons.
