COMBINES ARE THE
CAUSE OF HIGH PRICES.

The United States Senate is max
ing an investigation into the cause
of the tremendous increases in the
cost of living, and sufficient evidence
has been brought out to prove that
it is due almost entirely to combines.
The testimony shows that the lead
ing agencies are the jobbers. Whole
saiers and retailers, who take advant-
age of their position, and with no
legitimate cause or reason. advance
the price of articles which the con-
sumer must have.
The committee has gone far beyond
the mere matter of retail prices and
is exposing certain other factors
that are preying on the people by
fixing and enforcing wholesale prices
which necessarily constitutes the min
imum basis for retail prices.
For instance: The Sugar Trust
fixes the price at which sugar shall
be sold. and the dea er who cuts un-
der the scale cannot get any more
sugar. This compe!s the consumer
to pay 50 per cent more for his sugar
than he should The Elgin butter
trust fixes the price of butter. The
co d storage combine manipuIates
the prices for eggs, poultry, meats,
and other food products. And Con
gress will, no doubt, pass Senator
Lodges bi / to give the public relief
from the high-handod methods of
the warehouses to store up food pro
ducts while they are cheap and un.
load at enormous profits during the
winter months.

La JARA's NEW PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH.
NEW PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH

We take pleasure in presenting TO
our readers a picture of the new Pres
byterian church to be bull IL La lara
during the summer. The cut is
taken from sketch of the plans of
the building. Besides commodious
circular auditorium, there are several
Sunday school rooms in the rear of
the building and a roomy hall under
the tower.
Rev NJ. H. Mcleod, strict sup
'erintendent. who occupied the pulpit
here last Sunday stated that unless
all plans go wrong the church will
be bui this summer and be ready
for occupancy by fall. The site Sc
lected is well chosen, being on east
side of Walnut street adjoining the
residence of J. n. Becker and the
building will be handsome addition
to that part of town. Members of the
congregation are to be congratulated
on the near fulfil 'ment of their hopes.

INSANITY FIGURES

The increase of the number in
sane persons in the United States
as indicated by statistics is out of
proportion to the increase of popu-
lation. This is in part due to greater
effort in searching out and provid-
ing for the care and cure of in
sane persons. and in part, as alienists
insist, to the more strenuous life
of large bodies of the population.
Some idea of the extent of insanity,
and of the extent of humanitarian
effort in coping with the evil, is
afforded by late report of the total
state of New York for the ten years
following Oct. l, 1899. The receipts
were s342 ,569, ,532. More than one
seventh of the whole revenue of the
state was spent for the support OF
the hospitals for the insane The total
outlay for this purpose in ten years
was $54,01S.362 This is by no means
the full measure of expenditure.
Thousands of insane persons are
cared for in priva hospitals at
private cost.

DOESN'T SEEM TRUE.

If the farmers have not been get
in the past dozen years or more.
who has been? Yet Dean Sheppard
CT the North Dakota agricultural
co lege was maintaining before the
senate cost-of-living committee at
Washington Tuesday of this week.
that the farmer is not reaping any
benefits from the high cost of food
stuffs Stin he admits that agri-
cultural lands in his section have
increased in va ue about $50 per cent
in 10 years. which wcul0 seem to
make impossible his claim that prod
uctive capacity in the same time has
decreased 20 per cent
If that is true then the increase in
value must be largely speculative.
Another statement made was that
wheat at 81 bushel is worth no
mere to the farmer now than so
cent wheat was 10 years ago: yet it
was said at the same time that the
prices of gricu tural machinery have
increased only 10 per cent. as against
the above increase of 20 per cent
in what the farmer has to sell. But
as a matter of fact wheat brings
to the farmer per bushel just about
double what it did a dozen or 10
years ago. and will it be said it is
worth no mere to him now than it
was then, even considering that the
price of abor to the farmer has in
creased 60 per cent, as Prof. Shep-
pard maintains?

MEMORIAL DAY.

in proper and respectful manner
last Monday. Merchants closed their
places of business in the afternoon
and there was large crowd turned
out of the exercises of the day. Gen
Bloomfield, of Monte Vista. the orator
Of the day, was unwil ing to speak
in the park as arranged, on account
of the heat and the length of his
address. The park had been hand
-Dmely decorated and seats built for
the occasion. but in Difference to Gen
eral Bloomfield's wishes an adjourn
ment was taken to the Methodist
church and the program completed.
The church was far too sma | to hold
the crowd that wished TO attend and
because of its crowded condition a
flag drill by the school children had
to be omitted
General Bloomfield's address was
instructive and eloquent He is the
of the rebellion in this part of the
state and is well qualified to speak of
the scenes and times of that great
struggle. To the younger generation,
especially the school children, his
address was delightfully."- interesting.

BALLINGER, TARGET OF CON-
SPIRAcY, SAYS H. NJ. TELLER.
Former Colorado Senator Asserts
Evidence Fails to Show Any
Act Of impropriety.

SNCt OI
WASHINGTON, May 31.-"There
has been no evidence introduced be-
fore the Ballinger-Pinchot committee
which has in any way tended to
show that Secretary Ballinger was
guilty of any impropriety, much less
any violation of law. / think the
evidence indicates that a conspiracy
was organized very early in the sea-
son to force Richard A. Ballinger out
of public life on the theory that he
ing office in the reclamation service
and the forest service. l think this
was distinctly proved before the COM
mittee"
This statement was made yesterday
by Henry NJ. Teller. Democrat and
for thirty years member of the United
States senate from Colorado.
II have read every line of the tes-
timony." he said. II have gone over
the hearings day by day as lawyer
l must say that l was greatly sur
prised with the utter foolishness of
much of the evidence. 1t would not
be admitted by any reputable court.
That is the usual condition in in
vestigation of this character.
Teller said that he knew Ballinger
as commissioner of the land office
but was not intimately acquainted with
him.
Il know of him from Others" he
duty of the men of the West to in
quire about the secretary of the in
terror. l spent considerable time in
the West last summer and was in
Washington and Oregon. l took
special pains to inquire into the home
reputation of Judge Ballinger.
Every man / asked spoke in the
highest terms of his integrity and
ability. The men of the Pacific coast
country believe in Ballinger and what
the homefolks said of him satisfied
me of his fidelity to the public and
government. l never heard a word
of criticism of him on my whole trip,
either in Washington or Oregon.
The great fuss that has been made
over the so-called Law'er memoran-
1um is amusing to one who is ia
miliar with the methods of conduct
ing the government. 1t is the usual
custom in every department to direct
subordinates to work out the details
of important questions. They pre-
sent to the head of the department
their conclusions in writing, which.
as a rule, he accepts. 1t is not
possible for the president or any of
his cabinet officers, with the multi
plicity of questions that come before
him, to give more than general con-
sideration to the subject upon which
he is called to pass"
Asked if he thought it likely that
Secretary Ballinger would resign
when the commission made its report.
Teller said:
81 take little stock in the rumors
that Ballinger will resign. l do not
think this attack upon him either
requires or would justify him in
resigning his present position. l
should regard it as a public mis-
fortune, especially to the West. if he
should regard it as his duty to do So"
