Prices Going Higher
Advances Are Sharp

Buyers of tin ware, aluminium ware
brass ware, articles made of zinc, iron
and other metals are surprised at the
sharp advance in these goods lately, but
it is no fault of the local dealers. Or

late thai deliveries shall continue until
specified time, whether war ceases
or not, and so long as American mills
can get their fill of profit export busi-
ness, domestic orders, will suffer, hence
the high price of this material.
Some of the dealers are unable to
purchase goods in many lines owing to
the fact that the plants that usually
turn out these small articles are busy
filling war orders. One Eugene mer-

There is no improvement in the dye
situation, imported dyes being prac-
tically out of the market. The Amer
lean dyes are inferior in quality and
the supply is very inadequate.
The paper market is in panic. This
country imports so large share of its
sulphite and soda stock that the cut
ting off of the European supply means
there is not enough to go around. The
shortage of dyes and chemicals is a
great embarrassment to paper makers.
Many grades of paper cost today dou'

the Mulhall Lobby investigation" Mr..
Garrett was chairman of the commit
tee. Hundreds of witnesses were ex-
amined5who represented nearly every
trade, many national commercial and
industrial and labor organizations,
consuming most of the summer of
1918. AS chairman of a committee
empowered to conduct an impartial in
quiry into very serious charges against
congressman and private citizens of
varied occupations, Mr.. Garrett won
general commentator and the special
admiration of his fellow members of
the house by his flawless fairness and
consummate skill as chairman of the
committee, sitting almost like court.
He disclosed a serenity of judicial
poise and a patient firmness that sur
prised the most provoking witness
into orderly procedure and expedited
the progress of the long investigation
without dallying at any time.
The chairmans work wrought a
satisfactory conclusion from which
there was scarcely murmur of dis
sent by the parties in controversy,
most of the stories against the accused
were shown up as false or exaggerated
The committee report, while charita-
BILE and considerable, was not without
timely grave rebuke of pernicious per-
sons involved. A member of congress
who, although not criminally concern
ed, had betrayed lax regard for the
dignity and decency of his high Office
as representative, was plainly re-
minded of the committees condemna-
ton of the manner of his relations
with persons interested in measures
before congress. 1t is interesting to
note that with all his past faults, being
naturally a popular man. among his
constituents he has reformed and was
reelected after having been constrain-
ed to quit the house
A sterling quality of the character
fiber Of "Finis Garrett" has been I'M
swerving fidelity to duty, to conviction
to friend, to party; and, and if he has
shown human Partially and partisan
ship in his personal relations, it has
always been characterized by fair and
just consideration of his fellow men,
which coupled with his unfailing good
nature and genial temperament, cap
tivated the affections who best knew
and closest observed him.
This writer and observer of the
ninth district member from Tennes-
see has stated that he has seen hun
dreds of men come and go in Washing
ton public life during the most Of a
period of twenty-five years, and has
never marked one more deserving Of
the trust and confidence of the people
and his party than FINS ]. Garrett
