The Rise Of Portland.

The banner wheat exporting city In
the United States is Portland, Oregon.
1t appears from figures compiled by
the Department Of Commerce and
Labor that for year ending June 30,
Portland shipped l,474, l47 bushels Of
wheat, valued at sl,33l, ,9i3; San
Francisco being second, with Il, 3l5,-
AT, and the Puget Sound region third,
with l,24G,6l6. Never before has a
Pacific Coast port led the country In
wheat shipments
Yet Portland sent more wheat to
foreign markets in 1904 She then
shipped 3 07,i53 bushels-but the
difference arises from the vast
domestic shipments to California and
inland points this year, estimated as
being twice as much as the exports.
AS wheat prices and transportation
rates are at present, the prosperity OF
Portland and the territory tributary
to her are not subjects OF envy TO the
farmers and shippers Of the Middle
West wheat belt. They arel doing well
themselves and are glad II other sec
tions Of the country are doing well
also. ,,
mental commission, with power to DIX
freight rates, should carry their point,
with the almost certain result Of
establishing distance tariff,a contrast
~ circumstances very hard to bear
natlenry would soon develop ITSELF
Portland would continue 70 export the
wheat raised west Of the mountains
and brought to her by comparatively
inexpensive short hauls; but with tne
distance tariffs ton-mile rate In fnll
sorce The Middle West would be unable
10 ship the cereal TO the seaports anu
derive any profit so doing.
fsucb a state Of things should pre-
,,,i n would be convincing object
lesson In the dIscrimlnaIions between
hoc.l,,ies set up by an iDflexlele dis'
,.nce rate-the very thing which II Is
now the constant effort OF railraoa
srsr,,,rmanagers ,, to avoid by 50 adjust
inc charges that producers living AZ !, q
distance from export centers shail
have an equal chance with these situa'
ted nearer 10 these centers.

CLEMENTS ENDORSED.

Mr.. Ii. IL. NeWcOmD, a prominent
lawyer OF Washington, formerly con-
nected with the Interstate Commerce
Commission, in commenting on Com.
missioner Clements dissenting opln.
ion In the differentiaIs case to-day In
an interview, said;
aCommissioner Clements has deiln.
ed the unjustness OF the differentials
decision; that Is, its tendency to pre-
vent competition and to prevent To-
callty from gaining the fair and just
regard OF its enterprise. Commissioner
Clements holds that the principle In
volyed In the decision rendered by the
Commission is sll wrong, and one hav-
ing read his objections can hardly fail
to agree with him.
ut must be remembered, however,
that the principle underlying this de-
cisiou Of the Commission Is that un-
derlying all its decisions, for the Com
mission is, and necessarily must be,
given TO one policy, and only one. The
great point with Commissioner Gle
ments seems to have overlooked is
that the application OF this principle
to which he so strongly objects In the
differentials case would be just as dan
gerous and undesirable 10 any other
case.
"Decisions OF the Commission result,
ing In restraint OF trade and competi-
tion in the past are numerous. There
the examples, for instance, OF the
Grand Rapids carriage case and the
SO called 'party-rate case, both exact
ly similar to the differentials case In
which an opinion has just been handed
down. In each Of these cases the de-
cision rendered by the Commission
was held TO be restraint OF trade and
competition. 1t Is perfectly plain
that the doctrine underlying the dit;
ferentials decision Of the Commission,
to with Commissioner Clements so
strenuously objects, will, and does,
underlie its other decisions also. No
body u men can regulate trade and
competition by formula, and the
Commission In this case has Succeeded
In pleasing nobody.
"As Commissioner Clements says, it
is out OF the question to dream Of set
ting at rest these great problems Of
competition expressed through inter-
state commerce. II is neither possi-
Bile nor desirable that any final solu-
tion Of such questions should be
reached. Every locality, as the dis
senting Commissioner states, would
prefer to rely upon the nnmolested
freedom of competition by lawful
method"

THE PRIDE OF MEXICO,
The Old Ladies Home Should be AS
sisted by Every Loyal Citizen
Of Mexico.

On Tuesday afternoon the Whatso-
ever Circle Of the Kings Daughters
and Sons held their first meeting In
the Old Ladies Home. 1t was indeed
a meeting Of praise and thanksgiving
to God that he had enabled the
Kings Daughters OF the state to reach
this point in their effort to build a
home which should glorify His name
in its care for aged homeless women.
As the building now stands, 1t repre-
sents an outlay Of eight Thousand dol
lars only twelve hundred Of which is
unpaid. Hitherto hath the Lord
helped US and we believe he will bring
our hopes to full fruition and in the
near future the building can be dedi-
Gated to His service free of any debt
and will stand a monument testifying
to the love of the Daughters and Sons
Of this state for their kings. 1t will
also be q source of pride to the citi-
liens OF Mexico who have Contributed,
|or will contribute toward its success
In SO much as it shows to the world
that in these times Of push, hurry and
rush, along commercial lines, we still
have time, thought aud money to give
to the carrying out Of his command to
minister to His needy ones.
In the Joy Of holding our first meet
ling in our beautiful assembly room
there was mingled much sadness as II
was the last meeting to be presided
over by our loved leader, Mrs. Gala
way, before her departure for her new
home In Kansas City. For seven years
she has led us in everg good word and
work and we feel deeply our loss Each
member OF the circle present pinned a
knot of purple ribbon upon her re-
peating a verse Of scripture, which
represented our desire for Gods love
and care to rest very tenderly upor
her in her separation from us On be
half of the circle Mrs E d. Graham

In CLOUDS WHEN SIX
STICKS OF DYNAMITE CAR
RIED BY BALL0NIsT BALD
WIN ARE AccIDEN-
TALLY EXPLODED.
WIFE AND CHILDREN ARE
AMONG THE SPECTATORS.
Pieces Of Balloon and Remains of
Victim are Later Found in
Adjoining Field by
Big Party Of
searchers.

GREENyILLE, O., Sept. John e
Baldwin, aeronaut, and his balloon,
were blown to atoms by the explosion
OF six sticks OF dynamite while 1000
feet in the air and while 25, 900 people,
including his wife and two children,
were eagerly watching bis maneuyers
Pieces OF the balloon and body were
later found in a field, one-half mile
distant.
Mrs. Baldwin was the 6rst TO realize
the awful fate of her husband. She
tainted, to be revived with difficulty.
Prof. Baldwin had been giving daily
exhibitions at the Fair. A part OF
his performance was to explode sticks
of dynamite while high in the air. 1t
is believed that all Of the dynamite
was in some accidental manner ex-
ploded at an inopportune time
Those below saw a small cloud Of
smoke and heard a low report The
balloon disappeared, but the watchers
thought it was only temporarily hid
den by the smoke, and would again be
seen. When it failedto appear Mrs
Baldwin, apparently instinctively,
knew that an accident had happened.
Prof. Baldwin had been a ballonlst
for % years. He was 81 years old, and
came from Losantsville, Ind. In the
Spanish-American war he was in
charge Of two balloons used TO make
observations of the Santiago fortifica-
tions. He devoted several years try
ing to invent a balloon that would
sail against the wind, but did not sue
ceed.
He also conceived the idea Of pro-
ducing rain by sending up hundred
balloons at different points, from
which dynamite would be simnltan-
eously exploded.
