The Daily Market Report

PORTLAND, Feb, 10, - Apples
have come in rather freely this week,
with the result that stocks on the
street are materially larger than a
month ago and the market a shade
easier, There are still considerable
quantities OF apples in the country
and these for the most part will be
marketed during this month and
March, but dealers say the supply left
in first hands is not such as to cause
any weakening OF the market
Eggs sold at IS to 57Ae on Ore
gon ranch, Yesterday receipts we're
large.

THE Blk STICK SWINGS.


The big stick with the famous
brand, at. R." on the nub of it swings
effectively in Oregon, as in Califor-
MIA, and the fatuous agitators for Jap
snese restriction and suppression
(which, at this particular iuncture, is
an impediment to the negotiations be-
tween the two governments), are
brought to a realizing sense of the
stupidity of the movement in Ore
gon. Even Governor Chamberlain
sides with the President in his effort
to keep this matter in its proper
sphere Of diplomacy, and sharply de-
precates the agitation in the Legisla-
turer.
1t begins to look as ii this uproar
is inspired by the Interests" to
hamper, annoy and discredit the
Chief Executive upon the eve Of his
retirement; and, coupled with the
organized onslaught just made in the
federal Senate by Foraker, Kittredge,
ct. ais, for lock-system on the
Panama Canal, at a time when the
adoption Of such radical change in
construction would practically annul
and ruin the enterprise. lends color to
the suspicion of deliberate and dan
gerous interference.
By the 4th Of March the Congress
and Legislatures Of this country will
know that the man who is welding
this stick is one to be respected and
that in acceding to his demands they
are but meeting the composite win of
the people, for never, since the days |
of the immortal Lincoln, have the
people been represented as they are 4
now (excluding the politicians, of
course); and after that date, they will !
be up against it some more, even
though the hand that swings the cor.
receive buldgeon be less direct and a |
bit more diplomatic; it will swing and |
fall, all the same, and its infeunce vii /
of the same. for the god of the land, |
and the advantage Of its servants.
No man will ever dare insult the
President-eiect by claiming that he is |
the tutored representative of his pre-
decessor; it is enough that they are of !
the same school and temperament and
that both have been profoundly and |
accurately trained in the great task Of
sounding and handling of men; and it /
Is perfectly reasonable to look for
tacit replica Of the Rooseveltian pro-
grams at the hand of his friend and
eompatriot.

Now the Chinese Six Companies
are to the front with a grievance;
they are evidently jealous of the at
tention of the country is giving the
japanese. Isn't it about time the
Indian was rising to a question of
privilege Of some sort and making an
old-time tomahawk play? The
Brownsville matter is still open; and
there is nothing to prevent the few
East Indians now here from butting
in and making grandstand show for
recognition, booze and grub.

a ringing resolution pleading for the

What for? Hasn't she just done that
very thing without the intervention

or any other immaterial interference
or agency?
