Special to the Scranton Tribune.
Chicago, Nov. 4.
business may be reviving In the east
especially In the Democratic news
papersbut It Is nut doing much In that
line out west. The Record, of this city,
a low tariff paper, recently sent William
E. Curtis, Its Washington correspond
ent, on an investigating tour through
Oregon, Washington and the other erst
while boom states of the great north
west. From Portland he writes:
'Oregon feels the effect of the new
tariff more than any other state In the
union, except it be her younger neigh
bor, Washington. The removal of the
duty upon wool has very nearly ruined
hundreds; of farmers whose entire
wealth was Invested in sheep. By plac
ing lumber upon the free list congress
has closed nearly every mill in this
state, and completely paralyzed the
logging industry. By reducing the duty
on coal from 75 cents to 40 cents a ton
it has been made impossible for the
Oregon miners to compete with the
British Columbian across the border
without a reduction of wages, to which
the Miners' union is not willing to sub
mit, and there Is no compensation in
sight for nay of these Interests.
Most of the value of lumber and coal
out In this country represents labor,
and botli in the mining and lumber
camps Mgh wages have been paid
from $150 a day for the ordinary la
borer to $3.50 and $4 for the skilled me
chanicand the rules of the union were
rigidly e nforced. Over the border in
British Columbia Chinamen are almost
exclusively employed, and they never
get more than $1 a day, while thou
sands are paid but 60 and 75 cents. This
difference was suftlelently covered by
the McKinley law to enable the Oregon
lumbermen and coal miners to hold
tholr trade nnd to ship considerable to
Asia. South America nnd the South sea
Islands. But now you can buy any
amount of Canadian lumber and coal in
Portland and every other town on the
coast for Jess money than the domestic
product costs.
Wilsonlsra Refuted.
"The best lumber used to go Into the
export trade; the poorer grades were
held for the local market. Now the con
sumer can buy the best grades of Cana
dian pine and fir cheaper than the low-
est grades of the domestic products
used to cost him. According to Profes
sor Wilsons theory this ought to be
gratifying to the consumer, but as a
hard, inexorable fact, It Isn't. A large
proportion of the population of Oregon
was engaged in the logging camps and
the saw-m!lls. Since the passage of the
tariff bill 90 per cent, of them are out of
employment. The mills are running
only to furnish lumber and timber of
extra nnd special dimensions to fill
some unusual orders. Therefore the
consumer of lumber, who is a producer
of something else, hus no market for his
goods. It is a very practical and tangl
ble lesson in political economy; and if
Professor Wilson could visit Oregon a
great ninny consumers of lumber, wool
and coal would take the liberty to tench
It to him. The same is true of coal,
even with a 40-cent duty. Cheap Chin
ese labor enables the Canadian miner to
undersell his rival In the United States
ever at the mouth of the latter's mine,
"The price of labor has got to come
down. Not only In the lumber camps
and coal mines, but In the wheat fields
and on the sheep and cattle ranches,
It is Impossible for the labor unions to
prevent It, unless the duties upon wool,
coal and lumber are restored. Many
.worklngmen who have laid by some
thing during their prosperous years are
leaving this section for California and
other pluces. Some are going east to
their former homes in the hope of find
Ing something to do, for they cannot
get work at their old wages out here,
and the union will not allow thew to
accept any less. Hundreds of houses
have been abandoned, without any at
tempt to rent them or to sell their con
tents, because there is no demand. So
they simply let the fire go out In the
kitchen stove, tie old newspapers over
the furniture, board tip the windows
and doors nnd have the neighbors look
after things as long as they stay.
'Plenty or houses can be had ren
free by honest tenants who will be sure
to take good care of them, because the
insurance companies cancel their risks
upon unoccupied dwellings; and tramps
were never so numerous as they are
now. It is really distressing to see the
empty shops and stores and houses in
what were two years ago the most pros-
perous and promising towns In th
country. Tho boom has collapsed
Town lots are worthless; 10 and 12 pe
cent, mortgages are offered upon the
best property In Tacomu. Seattle and
other new cities without tempting any
Investor; and nearly everybody who
owes money has defaulted his Interest,
not from inclination, but because it is
Impossible for him to pay.
Democrats Are Scarce
"That Is one reason why you can't
find any Democrats In this part of th
country this season. There are plenty
of Populists and Republicans, but the
Democratic party Is practically obso'
lete west of the Missouri river, owing
to tho silver legislation of congress and
the tariff bill. And it Is equally difficult
to find any Democratic newspapers. I
saw a touching threnody which one of
them published a few days ago. It is
as follows:
"This was a Democratic' paper In day
gone by, but the 'change In the national
administration of the government
Washington, which It labored so ably and
so earnestly to accomplish, has not been
what was expected, and, like the French
man's whisky, It didn't taste so good In
the mouth as It did In the Imagination
Like many other Industries under the new
conditions that confront us,' this lnstl
ttition has withered and died, There is
no Bhow for a straight-out Democratic
caper In these digging In these times,
and we have reluctantly been compelled
to shut up Bhop for lack of patronage,
Our plant has been sold to a hated rivul
and a putrid reminiscence of Republican
lain across the river; and the faithful old
type that have, whooped It up so long for
fat old Grover, the stuffed prophet and
Latest U. S. Gov't Report
uncrowned king of the true Democracy,
will hereafter do degraded service in
expounding tho pernicious but profitable
theories of protection to tho political sin
ners of the Evergreen slnte. We wanted
a Democratic government and we got it.
After nineteen months' experience with
Grover and Billy Wllson'B congress we
e willing to let go and give tho Repub
licans a chance. We are no hog."
From. Falrhaven, Wash., Mr. Curtis
rites: "Today in this town the popu
lation has dropped from 6,000 to 1,500 in
less than a year. Half the stores and
buildings are vacant, and there are
several blocks In the city which haven't
single tenant ond do not show the
slightest sign of life. In other words,
is a case of suspended animation.
tMl "the stuff is here," but at present
prices and with free Canadian compe
tition there Is no use for any one to try
do business. So four of the five
great saw mills, with a capacity of
400,000 feet of lumber adny, are silent.
and the fifth Is running only for a few
days to fill an order from Pan Fran
cisco for some special length? of tim
ber. The lumber camps are aba ndoned,
and the loggers' camps are empty be
cause the booms are full of logs for
which there is no demand. The Cana
dlan lumbermen are monopolizing the
market.
The coal mines have shut down for
similar reasons. Even the United
States battleship Monterey left the
harbor of Falrhaven, when she lay at
nchor 600 feet from a coal dock, and
sailed
up Puget sound, fifty or sixty
miles, to (111 her bunkers with Canadian
coal from the Comox mine near Van
couver, because she could get It $1 a ton
cheaper there than on this side of the
border. Why? Because the dominion
coal is mined by Chinamen, who are
paid $1 a day. The Falrhaven coal is
mined by white men who demand $3."

How Mrs. Reese Became a Convert
Her Arm Was Useless, and Could
Not l?e Moved Without Pain
How She Was Cured.
Mrs. John Reese, South Pottstown,
Pa., says : "It Is now about a year since
I was cured of one of the worst attacks
of rheumatism I ever had. I had tried
all kinds of remedies nnd had several
doctors, but nothing did me any good;
so I concluded to try Munyon's Reme
dies. I never had any faith In homeo
pathy; I confess now I am a firm be
liever In it. After taking the Rheuma
tism remedy a few days I was able to
raise my arm, which I had not moved
for two weeks, without the most in
tense torture. Within a short time I
was completely cured, and It was per
manent, for during the past year I have
not had the slightest return of the dis
ease." Munyon's Rheumatism Cure Is guar
anteed to cure rheumatism In any part
of the body. Acute or muscular rheu
matism cured In from one to live days.
It never falls to cure sharp, shooting
pains In the arms, legs, sides, back or
breast, or soreness In any part of the
body In from one to three hours. It Is
guaranteed to promptly cure lameness,
stiff and swolen joints, stiff buck, and
all pains In the hips and loins. Chronic
rheumatism, sciatica, lumbago or pain
in the back are speedily cured.

edy company, of Philadelphia, put up

are sold by all druggists, mostly for 25
