DeIusion Added to Uncertainty.

The Republican platform suggests
that there should be maximum tariff
and minimum the maximum to be
used in retaliation and the minimum
In ordinary eases. This is merely add
ing delnsion to representation and I'M
certainty. We have prominent Repnb-
lican authority, Senator DoIliver and
Senator Hanna, to prove that in the
present law the rates were knowingly
made higher than necessary with the
understanding that reductions would
be made TO secure foreign trade
In ordinary affairs there is no differ
ence between a tariff reforner and a
proteetioilist They meet together in
business. in society, in the lodge room
and in the church In their daily life
they apply the same rules and are
guided by the same business rules.
This similarity manifests itself all
through life and up to the very hour
of death. If a protectionist makes i

A GENERAL MARKET DAY.
Plan to Have All Cities in Inland En-
pire Observe Regular Market
Dates.

Market day" may soon be as COM
mon an expression in the inland em-
pire as It is in the older settled dis
tricts of this country and many parts
of the old world, says the Walla Wal
la Bulletin.
Frank b. Tichenor, organizer for
the Woodmen of the World, has start
ed movement to establish regular
monthly market day in the towns Of
eastern Washington and Oregon and
northern Idaho. Seventy-five towns
in the inland empire are expected to
hold a general market day on Satur-
day, March IA. The camps of the
Woodmen Of the World in each dis
trlct are to take up the matter and be
the first in establishing a market day
in their respective localities.
"In Minnesota" said Mr.. Tichenor,
market days have been run regular
ly for the past 80 years. In Europe
all merchandise, cattle, horses and
sheep are sold on regular market
days. 1t combines business with
pleasure and affords a grand meeting
place for residents for miles around
the town in which 1t is held. The
women folks DO the shopping while
the men get busy selling and trading
horses, cattleA etc.

Farmers Seek Reduced Freight
Charges on Shipments OF Grain
Bags.
In the interests of lower freight
rates on grain sacks. "a conference
will be held today between r. B,
Miller, general freight agent of the
o. r. & N. and Henry Blakley, gen.
eral western freight agent OF the
Northern Pacific railroad and rep
resentative ranchers of this country.
Among the conferees representing the
ranchers will be State President At
kinson Of the Farmers Educational
and Cooperative union, and H. II. Nc
Lean. The meeting win be held in
the office of Robert Burns, local
agent for the o. r. & NJ, says the
Walla Walla Union.
What the result OF the meeting will
be is not known, although the COM
petition offered by water may be O
factor in inducing the railroads TO re-
duce their rates.
THE conference has been brought
about" said Robert Burns, largely
for the reason that the ranchers in
preferring their demands have gone
directly to the railroads instead OF
complaining loudly of their troubles
and not consulting the roads at all.
They can rest assured that whatever
can be done in the way of reducing
freight rates on grain sacks will be
done"

other citizens Of Pendleton came tc
hand in due time.
l note what you say about the de-
sire of our citizens to have the head
quarters of the proposed eastern Ore
gon federal district located at Pen
dleton and 1t goes without saying that
nothing would afford me more pleas
ure than to have a district located
and Pendleton fixed as the place fol
holding the court.
However, every time / appear be.
fore the committee having this mat
ter in charge / am confronted with
the statistics that the business Of the
present district, as they Insist, is far
less than that of many other district,
which are not asking for an addition
al district.
The economical fever stands very
high here at present and 1t seems to
be the purpose of each particular
committee to keep all expenses. so
far as legislation enacted from that
committee is concerned, down to the
very lowest possible amount.
am urging this matter upon every
suitable occasion, but, to speak can
didly, l have much fear that If inn
mediate action is insisted upon that
we will get an unfavorable report
from the house judiciary committee
l think the chances for its passage
would be very much better at the
short session OF the present congress
rather than the present one.
However. II 1t is the desire of the
people that this matter shall be
pressed until consideration is had, 1
will do my duty along that line, let
the result be what il may.
am very sorry that l cannot speak
in more encouraging terms in regard
to this measure, but candor prompts
me to place the situation before you
exactly as I see II.
I am told that committee from
Baker City will be here shortly in re-
gard to this measure. I am glad to
have them come, for they can better
realize the situation after having
been upon the ground and had a con-
ference with the committee having
the matter in charge.
Assuring you that l will let no op-
portunity pass to say a good word in
behalf of the pending measure, I am
Yours very truly.

ing served two terms already he did
not feel like seeking another term
unless there prevailed a strong sem

found that the feeling among the
people Of the county is now even more
favorable to his reelection than It was
