THE MODERN BEN HUR.

Ben Hur is with the Portland dele
cation. This one never drove a char
lot, but would perhaps be equal to a
fiivyer. He is Ben Hur Lampman,
who can write right with either right
or left-being ambidextrous thata-
way. Words flow from his pen like
wheat from a separator spout; but
sometimes the chaff is not thrown
cut through the blower and his read
ers perforce absorb a mixed literary
diet. Ben was precocious child, and
at the early age of two years COM
posed with the utmost composure an
Ode to Charity. What he has since
owed to charity it would be hard to
say, but he once ran a country paper
for quite spell. He is confirmed
and irrepressible poet, and Editor
Piper is often compelled to sit on his
chest in order to prevent him from
getting the poetry off the chest
aforesaid The esteemed 0regonian
is hard put to keep a jump ahead of
the upstart Joinal in circulation, and
cannot afford to take "a chance on
Ben's "divine afflatus" - whatever
that may be. Three rousing cheers,
however, for Ben Hur-who comes to

Despite the republican outcry
against the "White House autocrat,"
there is no question that ahad the
same course been pursued by a re-
publican president as to the League
of Nations, he would have received
practically unanimous republican en-
dorsement. 1t follows. too, that he
would quite likely have been opposed
by democratic senator's. Political
blindness, intolerance and bigotry
are bred from the virus of parti-
sanship.

A CHEERING PROPHECY.

The wheat market is just now n
close rival Of the presidential cleo
ton in local interest. a good share
of the East End crop is still in the
hands of growers, to whom present
prices make no appeal. The crop
has been n costly one to raise and
harvest, and the primary market will
have 10 30 to point considerably
above two dollars before there is any
pronounced local movement,
In this connection the views Of
Prophet Pickel of Chicago may be
found encouraging. He says in the
current number of Rosenbaum Re-
view:
"Detlation sentiment is now de-
pressing the market for grains to
levels which are not fundamentally
sound. Buyers should take advan-
tage of the opportunities presented
to make purchases for long time
needs. 1t is Just few days ago that
$500 and $400 wheat was a posi-
tive certainty in the minds of the
public. Sentiment has reversed itself
Just as sentiment has q habit Of do
ing. Let us remember that the lower
market prices may go temporarily,
the higher they will go permanently.
Let not your heart be troubled now
over downward prices, any more than
you were troubled recently by as
cending prices. They will come
back"
Prophet Pickle advises such Of his
readers as are inclined to speculate
to buy wheat at any point below
$2.10 bushel, and goes on to say:
"0n the second of July, think it
was, printed n chart which forecast
future wheat prices. l indicated
what | thought the price movement
would be, but told you l could not
tell you exactly the time. You have
now witnessed the downward move
ment. Forget that chart now for n
time and watch wheat futter around
for a bottom | don't know where
it will light. The upward movement
which indicated is coming just as
surely as the downward movement
came, and if the fool farmers will
hold their ball bearing tongues as
we'll as their wheat, prices will come
back. do not doubt that for min
ute. want to tell you this very
frankly. Half my prediction has
been fulfilled. | have lot Of letters
from mechandisers in which they
say, The wire houses are predicting
dollar and a-half wheat. Have you
changed your mind?' Follow the
wire houses and you'll go broke.
They make money on your commits
sions. This is not meant as any re-
fiection on them whatsoever. They
are doing the best they know how.
Many of them are my patrons and l :
want them to prosper; but I'm going ,
10 tell you what / believe is the
ruth and the whole bunch can go
lang if they don't like it. I'm tell I
ng you that you are going to see a r
rise in wheat prices &
