THE FARMERS INTEREST.

Authentic reports show that
the farmers of the country have
made more money out of their
products for the year 1907 than
for any previous year. The value
of farm products was almost
$500, 100000 greater this year
than last year. This sum is about
$4,000, 900 less than the value OF
the wheat crop alone. 1t should
not be forgotten, however, that
our crop of wheat fell short in
quantity of what the acreage
sown to wheat should have pro-
duced. Furthermore, there was
a sharp export demand for oul
surplus. These two things work

What is Causing the Increase OF
Catarrh in Corvallis?

In spite of tie hest efforts OF medlcal
men, catarrh troubles are increasing not
onlv in Corvallis, but all over the coun-

Catarrh is germ disease, and to cure
it germ life in the breathing organ
should be destroyed, and to do this no
other treatment has such positive and
beneficial action as Hyomei.
When the mucous membrane ls 1rrlfat'

quickly it soothes the membranes vital

ing together make the value or
the crop greater than usual, and
we'll illustrates the economic law
that supply and demand fix the
price of commodities. -
But, after all, the export de-
mand for wheat and flour was In
value only about $50, 900, 900.
This gives s4OO, 100000 as the
value to the farmer of the home
market for his wheat.
Here is demonstration, so far
as it goes, Of the value OF the
home market above all foreign
markets combined. Were we to
consider other farm products for
which there is little or no demand
for export the value Of the home
market to the farmer is greatly
enhanced.
If we seek to know why this
market is so valuable we shall
find the reasons are that it pre-
lsents a greater demand and by
consumers who are better able
and more willing to pay for what
they buy than any other market
lin the world. Consumption of
/ those commodities we do not pro-
duce depends almost entirely on
Iour ability to purchase them from
the producer. It follows, then,
that the prosperity of the farmer
largely depends on the ability OF
those engaged in pursuits other
than farming to buy the farmer s
products. Anything which will
create and preserve this ability is
to his benefit.
Now some careless writers
moved by hatred for protection
would have farmers believe thai
= if consumers of farm product:
might avail themselves of cloth
ing and other necessities of lif'
which are cheap in foreign coun

WILL 1T BE DONE9

70 Much has been said as to the eff
feet of the primaryelection law in
destroying party organization. 1t
is unuuestionably a blow with
that intent because that was
thought to be necessary to de-
throne party bosses" and de-
stroy political rings.
So far as the republican party |
is concerned it has always and
everywhere had enough courage,
vitality and patriotism to purge
and purify itself without destroy
ing or impairing' it's usefulness to
the rank and file who cling to its
principles. Were this not true it
would be.because the great mass
ofrepublicans, ,-thatis the entire
party,-had ceased to care for re-
publican principles and purposes
and had become as selfish and
corrupt as a few men who had
gained mischievous control of the
party machinery.
Such a conclusion as this would
be absolutely false, and it would
remain true that, however long
and bitter the contest, republi-
cans have never abandoned their
principles to effect publication of
party conduct.
We take it that there are as ma
ny republicans in Oregon as at
any time heretofore. We believe
that Notwithstanding the prima-
ry law and without disturbing
any of its provisions party organ.

men are known to the party a

Much Sorrow in College Town
Over Death of Mrs. Iva DUR

One OF the saddest occurrences
that has been noted from our
vicinity for a long time is the
death and burial of 1va~Durkee-

on Monday, December 80, as the

the sad news flashed over the
wires, that ''Iva was dead,

home for burial" Many hearts
were torn by the sad tidings.
Here where she had grown from
young girlhood to maidenhood,
wifehood and motherhood; where

of the federal government over inter-
state commerce. The question, then,
is whether the supreme court in case
of the passage of this Tillman bill
would alter its decision in conform
ity Herewith. To do so, as Senator
Knox says, would be to give up ''one
of the rights of interstate commerce,
and that is not likely. Nor is ii prob
able that the judiciary committee of
the senate will recommend that the
bill should he passed. 1t should be
added thar Senator Knox, while cour-
teously complying with the request of
Senator Tillman, distinctly refrained
from intimating any view in conflict
with the decision of the supreme
court SO far from it, his remarks
pretty plainly indicate that he has
the same opinion as that of the SUI
preme court as to the line of separa-
ton between the power of federal
government and the states over this
subject.
