WHAT WILL THEY DO?

When the Hughes party gets in power, if it does will
it pass tariff law to increase prices? Will it place an
embargo wheat in order to reduce the price Of bread
How will it make the cost of living less than it is now?
Is possible to reduce the cost of living and at the same
time increase the incomes of the producers? In other
words can Hughes and his advisers frame laws to-
make bread cheap to the and wheat high for
the producer? Can they aside the law Of supply and
demand and substitute something else "just good?"
Most assuredy they cannot therefore their talk of doing
so is the verest bunk.
America is just paying her portion of the cost of
the European war because the demand for all foodstus
has been doubled by the and prices have risen cor
respondingly 1t costs to make sugar now than
it did two years ago. yet the price is double that of that
date with everything else and the manufacturers
are reapng harvest That is all there is to it. When
the war ends prices will fall steadily the wartorn
countries get back to their normal condition and then as
now prices will be high low products plentiful
or scarce and in proportion to the relation between sup
ply and demand The democrats remaining in power, orr
the republicans coming in cannot change this nor will
either The law of supply and demand is much beyond
the control of law makers is the law of gravitaton
After November seventh there will be such silly
assertions made and the fact that they made now but
emphasizes the fact that the supporters of Mr. Hughes

Neither Conscience Nor Conviction

Mr.. Hughes has no reason to feel
proud of the way in which he is getting
the support of the German propagan
dists. With them it is now matter
of choice between the devil and the
deep sea. They dislike Wilson, and they
don like Hughes. That is the attitude
DR.. c. j. Hexamer, the president of the
German alliance, is taking in a public
statement. After reiterating at some
length all the stale arguments of theirs,
being mostly in the nature of personal
abuse of Wilson, DIR. Hexamer goes on
to assert that ono German American
with sclfrespect can vote for Wilson. -
"What are we going to do as Ameri-
can citizens?' DR.. Hexamer asks.
Some of our papers have advised us
to refrain from voting altogether. 9th
crs have advocated to concentrate the
strength of the German vote on a mi
nority party that has no prospects of
victory. That means throwing away our
vote.
"After long and serious thought l
have arrived at the decision to give my
vote to Hughes and Fairbanks. The
present question is not, what is good
for the central empires, or for the al
lies, but as good Americans we must
solve the question what is good for our
own dear country. What we need espe-
cially is a strong government, which
holds on to firm, and not to a vaeil-
lating pro-Amerlean policy

ORDERS AND SHIPMENTS
NOW PASS PRODUCTION
IN LUMBER INDUSTRY
(Portland Telegram, Oct. 90

Shipments of lumber % per cent be-
low orders and orders exceeding pro-
duction by 7.29 per cent-all coincidcnt
with horizontal advance of 81 in
prices-feature the weekly trade bar
ometer OF the West Coast Lumbermen g
association, compiled from reports COW
in the Pacific northwest.
With the exception of the mid-sum-
mer close down when production was
abnormally curtailed, this weeks bar
ometer is the first to show orders in
excess of production for period OF
six months.
Car shortage increasing in severity
is the assigned cause of the sudden
change in lumber manufacture con-
ditions. Eastern and middle west line
yards holding for lower values are said
to have been caught with short stocks
in the face of the most severe ear
shortage in recent years, and their eff
forts to get lumber for fall trade re-
quirements has resulted in very heavy
volume of inquiries.
West coast mills are said to be ac-
cepting only such part of the business
offering as may be shipped in reas-
onably short time; and are generally re-
ported fighting shy of loading up on
contracts calling for delivery month
or two hence. The weeks advance of
81 right through the list, while not
taking up the sag that has occurred in
the values since May is looked upon
as the possible beginning of drive"
which may add much to the general
prosperity of the Pacific northwest
Orders, last week, booked for trans
continental rail delivery exceeded ship
ments by rail 20,675,OO0 feet, or 1884
per cent, a condition in this particular
branch of the trade that is without
parallel this year.
Production for the week was &c.
434 $40 feet, which was $40 per cent
below normal, the curtailment being
also attributed to the shortage of rail
shipping facilities.
The total of all orders-rail, local
and cargo-for the week amounted to
74,S9S,074 feet. The total of all ship
ments, j7,620,5 $50 feet.
The balance of unshipped orders in
the rail trade is 1907 cars and the bal
ance of unshipped cargo orders is 4G,-
754,75S feet in the coastwise trade and
42,591, ,620 feet in the export trade.

Owing TO the greatly increased cost

makers of the San relice cigar, Tho

advance in question is absolutely un-
avoidable. The generous support Or
