J. C. SUSIUDAN,
WOMAN'S HAIR.
A young giil, one of the beautiful
age, came to me not long ago with her
hair cut short at the back, and with
one of those dreadful door-mat bangs
in front, and asked me what I thought
of young women who wpre their hair
so. I told her gently and kindly that
most women, as they grew older, cared
more for what was on the inside of their
heads than for what was on (be out
side, and I was sure she was no ex
ception, for she . was unusually weil
balanced mentally. Then she wanted
to know what I thought about
women's hair generally, and now I'm
goiag to tell Jier, aswell as such others
as may care to know, what I think.
Fxora t Jie. yexy beginning long hair on 1
a woman's head has been one of herif
distinguishing marks, and, we have the
a net ion of :the scuptures, old and new,
for the custom. I Poets and painters
have adopted it a'so, and in poem and
pictures woman's hair has played a
prominent part. I can't recall just
now any instance of a poet inditing
verses to a short-haired woman, though,
possibly, some few women have worn
their hair short who were quite as
good models for poetry as any others.
Nowadays the women who wear their
hair short are those who don't recog
nize poetry nothing but good haid
prose on "women's rights" has any
efiect on them at all. Of the long
haired ones, however, thousands of
lines have been written.
Now, having shown pretty conclu
sively that the hair should be worn
long (I admit thai in jases of chronic
headache, or in other necessities, short
hair is permissible and comfortable), I
shall make a few remarks as to the
style ef wearing it. Nature is not
fashion. Art u fashion, and women
nrglect nature and adopt .art in hair
dressing. The result is the pompadour,
the bang, in all its phases, crimps,
curls, and so on ad infinitum, and not
one in a dozen at all becoming. Ugly
hair needs these adventitious aids to
make it tolerab'e, but handsome hair
is 'its - owi, best ornament, and when
simply arranged to suit the contour of
the head and face of the wearer, is
something no quirk or quibble of
tashiou can improve. It is , woman,s ,
crown of glory, and a beauty which
the .--. whitening hand of time makes
none the less beautiful. It is the only
phvsicial beauty which doe3, not fade,
and the alchemv of "the years, which
transforms the golden tresses of vonth's
fpring into 'the silver threads of -wintry
age, does a wondrous work of m:gic
which maken the art divine Mrs.
Brown, in Merchant Traveler.
The announcement made last week
of tho organization of the National
Barb Wire Company, of Chicago, is
ano' her example of the growing ten
dency towurds monopoly of manufac
ture in this country. There are those
who pretend to be fair minded who ate
ready to support the position taken W
this class of bus:ness men, but only
from a selfish stind point , can this
course of action be improved.'-' In this
supposablv land of the free, every man
no difference how small his capital in J
business, ought to have a fair show, but
it is a question nowadays as to his get
ting it. It is true that there have
been many attempts to consolidate a :
number of small firms into giant cor
porations for the purpose of monopoly
which have failed, but such as have suc
ceeded in executing their original pur
pose have invariably pro.ed a curse to
the business world at largf Just what
the remedy is for this growing difficulty
is not an easy matter to determine, but
the consumers, who aie for the most
part patient people, will some-day grow
tired of the wrongs that are being en
acted against them and a means of put.
ting down the cause of there trouble
will be found. Whether or not it
could be accomplished by legal enact
ment is a question, but if it could be
dono that way the law-makers of our
country could find no better occupation
than to make the necessary law.- When
monopolies are spoken of in this country
the railroads and Wall street classes are
usually the first to come to mind, but
ttere are two or three monopolies en
gaged in the manufacture and sale of
the most common and necessary sup
plies of life, which quite equal the for
mer in the wrong done. We refer to
the Standard Oil Company, Diamond
Match Company and the tack combi
nation. Age ot Steel.
However much, politically, the Mail
may differ with the members of Pres
ident Cleveland's Cabinet, it does not
believe that one of them would favor
the appointment of a horse thief or a
convict. Such appointments are mis
takes which, no doubt, can be explain
ed. It is impossible for any Admin
istration to dispense the vast patron
age of this country without occasion
ally appointing men who, if tLey have
not been in the penitentiary, onght to
be. This was so under Republican
Administrations, it will be bo under
this Administration and it will be so
under all coming Administrations. It
is better to be fair. Chicago Mail.

IV OOL. v
A liberal movement of wool contin
nes to be repoited at all the seaboard
markets, and prices are firm and grad
ually advancing. Sales are well, dis
tributed, and on the whole the gain of
the last sis weeks in values and activi
ty is fully sustained. Production being
rather in excess of last year, the move
ment of goods improving, and tho sta
ple reUtively cheap, manufacturers
take hold with considerable confidence.
In some "instances dealers have marked
parts of their stocks a good deal above
the present level of values, ' thereby di
minishing to some extent the . volnmo
of present transactions. iTJn til fabrics
advance perceptiUv, buyers of wool
ill be cautious, an4 so far -the gait in
the goods market consists mostly in an
improved demand merely. A revival
of confidence is apparent among the
English manufacturers, as t well as in
this xiountry. Thl first of the Septem
ber auction sales in London have shown
an unchanged situation. The shortage
in this year's Australasian wool clip U
estimated in Melbourne at 80,000 bales.
Ihe .Boston market is strong, with
advances of lc. recorded on. some
kinds, and sales liberal. -In the move
ment of wool there has been no retro
gression since about July 1st, when in
creased activity first appeared. Man
ufacturers aie slow to pay more than
early in the summer, but yet the range
of piices show a material advance. The
outlook for woolen goods is generally
regarded as much improved. Current
prices are about, 3132c, for Ohio and
Pennsylvania X, 3233c. for XX. and
! 3335c. for XX and above. Wool
sles at Benton this week are 5,495,000
pound; this year 104,700,000 pounds;
last vear 79,700,000 lwunds. This
week's sales are the largest on record.
The general advance in price since the
r:se began has been about 2c. to 3c,
Values are now only fractionally lower
than last vear
The Philadelphia market is strong
and active. The sales are smaller in
the aggregate because stocks have been
depleted by recent large transactions
and receivers have not had time to open
and grade new wools fast enough to
meet the demand. Another cause of
the reduced volume of business is the
fact 1 1) ut selling limits in many cases
have- been advanced : l2c. and the
wools thus held are for 'the moment
practically out of the market There
is a very firm and confident feeling as
the future of the market, and sellers
are indifferent about ' realizing "except
at tull prices. JSew" York

there ain't much to it. All a man's

Managers of the Yamhill county fair
have decided not to charge an admis

McMinnville next Tuesday, and,
weather permitting, the farmers of the
county and their wives and daughters
will all be there. This 13 the first fair
ever held by the county society and ev-
ery effort is being made to make it a
popular success. Care js being taken "
also that it shall not be a financial fail
ure, a very necessary matter looking to
future success. The management an
nounce that every courtesy will be
shown members of the press and every
facility given them for obtaining infor
mation such as an agricultural and in-

The Oregon Pacific railroad company .
has made a proposition to the people of
Albany. . it pvojKses to . run their
road . to, build the bridge opposite,
and its shops in that city in considera
tion of $50,000. It agrees to .take land,
water power, or rights of way, in part
payment. The bridge which they pro
pose to build is to be made to. accommo
date , teams as well as trains. The
payments are to be made one-third
when tho railroad is completed to a
point in Benton county opposite Al
bany, one thitd when the bridge is be
gun and $10,000 already expended
therecn, and ths other third six months
after completion of the bridge. Albany
will certainly not miss this chance to
increase her besiness interests.
As usual the grain fleet is at our

Portland excel. They are at wont to
censure the farmer who allows the rains
to catch his crops exposed, not consid
ering thatj while he harvests and
gathers into grananes they should he
equally busy in clearing the road to
the world's markets. ; As a conse--tquence,
the work which should have
been domain July drags along into the
middle of September. Ships are at
anchor in the lower Columbia waiting
cargo by the slow, laborious and ex
pensive process r of transportation :on
barges, because there is a lump on the
bottom of the river in one place reduc
ing the depth to seventeen and a half
feet and a bar at another where there
is a depth of but eighteen feet. Of
course there is w no tim3 to lose,". but
J time is being lost all the same'and the
. lumps and bars in the river hold th9
j key to the commerce of u vast region .
