Iv Siberian aceline, the new fodder plant, grows a rapidly downward aa It does upward, which is aaid to be 15 feet (and producing 80 to HO ton of fodder) per annum, it may prove as formidable a pest to the husbandman as the fern on the Highland hills. It is almost Impossible to believe that, as reported, the American citizens in charge of the government of Hawaii have resorted to most cruel and bar barous tortures to compel the conspira tors agftinst their government to testify. But at the same time the American citi zen Is occasionally capable of the worst excesses. Tub Ortgonian in a sarcastic editlonal says: "No doubt the democrats and populists will pledge themselves next year to economy, retrenchment, reduc tion of fees, salaries, offices and emolu ments, and to relieve of the people from burdensome taxation. The republican party, of course, will not; or, If it should, nobody would be expected to believe it. . Just now there is a loud chuckle all over the state, from the fac tion that "held up" the legislature, over the great success gained in killing all the measures for relief of tlia people. Tug statistics of the work performed by the different church organizations in the United States during the past four years offer food for reflection. Thus the Salvation Army, with Its noisy de monstrations, made an increase of only 13,258 members, but the Catholic church silontly increased in strength 1,243,508; the next lower is the Methodist church with an increase of 352,245. The Ad ventist, the Church of the New Jer usalem, the Evanglical Association, the United Brethren and the Universalis! lost in ministers or membership or in both the German Evangelical Synod lost 11,700 communicants. Tub capers that have been cut up by Bro. Bead anew emphasize the trite observation that profession of religion does not in itself make a better citizen of a man. We hardly know how it may be in the next world, but we do know "for a fact" that on this mundane sphere it is character that counts, not profes sions. Professions never kept any out of the pen, to the contrary they have got him in there if he professed too willingly. It is doubtful whether, after Charon has ferried us to the other side of the river Styx, religious profession, not backed by character, will keep us out of the pen "over there." It cannot be that there are two kinds of right in the universe. If there be, we are "at sea." Though in England agriculture is as much "down at the heel" as in the United States, yet the prices of many products of the farm are there much higher than on this side of the water. A London paper presents this compari son of average wholesale prices In New York and London : Prime butter, London, 32 cents ; New York, 24 cents ; hay, London, $24; New York, (0.60; celery, London, $2.10 per dozen; New York, 24 cents per dozen; eggs per dozen, London, 30 cents; New York, 10 cents; grapes per pound, London, 24 cents; New York, 3 cents; beef or mutton, per pound, London, 12 cents; New York, 4 cents; veal per pound, London, 14 cents; New York 0 cents; turkeys per pound, London, 14 cents; New York, !) cents; corn per quarter, London, $5.28; New York, $4.80; ap ples and potatoes are respectively equal in price in both markets, ami in January wheal was 24 Cents cheaper in London than in New York. What has all this to do with the tariff that has protected American manufacturers for 30 years to secure a home market to our farmers? Ninety-Foub per cent. o( tho mone tary transaction are performed with checks, only 6 per cent, with metal or paper money. Nearly all business, therefore, is transacted with personal paper representing money in bank. With a million of deposits from a number of individuals, business trans actions aggregating a hundred millions or more may be performed in six months; but if the deposit lie idle, or, in other words, no checks are drawn against them transferring A's deposit to 1! and B's to C and so on down to Z and Z's again to A, industry stagnates and workmen are idle. Capital is asleep either because there is a monetary panic or there is no outlook for profitable in vestment. When, therefore, there is brisk business activity, checks augment the cosh in the country to the fullest demands of trade, but when there is dullness very few checks are drawn and money is "tight." Since gold and silver are valuable as money not on account of the labor involved in obtaining them, it follows that if wonderfully rich mines of these preci ous metals were found which made them almost as common aa copper, the; would have to be discarded as money metals and then the "goldbug" would be out a job. It ia the labor in the coin that gives it its value. Why could not labor checks pass current as well as checks on bank deposits. Practically that would be a difficult matter to settle. If a miner expends $100 in paving out $10 worth ot gold be loses $90, for which nobody reimburses him. It Is said that every dollar of gold and silver cosla $2 in labor. Would workmen be wil ling to labor (or half-price labor checks T Dr. Price '1 Cream Baking: Powder AwstsM GoU Slsslsl MMsrastar Fair, Saa Ffiadsce. KAU. WAY WKKCKH. Last year was a bad one (or the railroads. Business was depressed. There were sorious Industrial disturb ances. The corn crop was short. There was heavy loss owing to reaction from World's Fair stimulation, Yet the record of railway insolvencies, though ' absolutely heavy, compares very encouragingly with that of 1803. In 18!'3 seventy-four companies, op erating 20,000 miles of road and rep resoujlng over 11,750,000,000 of Invest mcnt, went Into bankruptcy. In 180 the record shows but thirty-eight com panies, 7,025 miles of road and aggregate obligations of $.'103,000,000. About 62 por cent, of this mileage and 40 per cent, of the capitalization are represented by failures In the Santa Fe system, the Orogon Hallway and Navigation and tlie Oregon Short Lloe road. About one-quarter of all the railroads In the United States, reckoning by mllwgo, are now in the hands of re ceivers. And during the last nineteen years the wo ik of clearing away wrecks has involved tho sale under foreclosure of 503 railroads, representing 02.020 miles of road and 3,52fU25,000 oi stocks and bonds. The record reflects much of folly and of criminality in railroad management. It suggests one reason for that foreign distrust which is sending our stocks and bonds home to us, and drawing gold away from us in return, with such perplexing consequence to public finance. Tim farmers of this county have bee n lamentably indifferent to the quality of their horned stock, most of which is of the scrub variety. If in years of com parttive prosperity that have passed they had formed "bill' associations," as the farmer of Denmark did some years ago, they would have been en abled, at a small cost to each imlividua farmer, to ''breed up" for either beef or dairy cattle. It Is a well-known fact that a grade or pure blood steer of stock peculiarly adapted for beef by scientific breeding, will grow and fatten faster on a given amount of feed than a scrub steer, and also that one strictly butter cow is worth more, as a producer of something that will sell at a net profit, than three scrub cows. Now Is the time for "lend pencil farming," and for intelligent attention to producing only the best, whether it be beef, butter or fruit, for it is these that command the best prices.

Tub possibilities at dairying when skill and the best stock are combined are shown by the record of six Jerseys in the herd of a private creamery at Brockville, Canada. Three of them, at barely two years old, produce together 28,' j' pounds of butter a week, and three mature cows 52 pounds a week, one of these, which gives 20 quarts of milk a day, making 23 pounds 10 ounces of butter a week. The six Jerseys, all inbred, hold their milk and butler throughout the year. Notice to Property Owners on Main Street. Oheoon City, Ore., March 6, 1805.

T. W. touts, Recorder for Oregon City , Ore. Here are some of the popular features of the Midland Monthly for March: "Afternoons in Italy," by Marv B. Welch ; "Literary Atlanta; "A Wash ington Logging camp," by Ida A. Baker, the prize descriptive paper of the last quarter; "Women Writer of Washing ton," the story of the Military Telegraph, by its organizer, Major George H. Smith ; "A Princess of siivenanu, an luano love story. A remarkable case ol Oregon pro- lillcness is reported to us by Mr. T. B . Williamson, living at Oak Grove, lie is the owner of a line two-year-old heifer which is giving a fine supply of milk and is milked as regular as any of his old cows, yet she has never been with calf. He first discovered that there was milk in the udder by observing it on the ground where she had lain and commenced to milk her regularly from that time. Albany Herald. John D. Rockefeller is the richest man in America In twenty-five years he has made a fortune of (145,000,000 and now has an income of $15,000,000 a year or $1,250,000 a month, enough income for 15,000 men to live well on. It doesn't need any brain at all to grasp the fact that no man could ever accumulate such a colossal fortune honestly In thai length ot tune, figure it out and you will see that the public have just simply been robbed, and our laws have been in partnership in the business. Albany Democrat. The EllensburK ( Wash.) Dawn, perpe trates the following: "A member of the A. P. A. (American Poultry As sociation) of New England wrote the editor of the Poultry Newt, of Lincoln, Neb , and wanted to know why the poultry breeders ol the West were mak ing such a lluht against the Catholic; if they want to get a corner on egs (lurii)K Lent. Ihe editor replied that the A. P. A. in the West were those who were trying to raixe hell instead of hens." IlUHiness men want trade, and they use the newspapers ss a medium to obtain it. Advertising is as worthy of a study as any part of a business, and our successful business men evidence that (act . Advertising is as much a necessity to business, in these modern times, as a stock of goods. Unless you ran gain or induce a trade, there is no money iu advertising, so it should be studied. There are thousands' of dollars worth of shop worn good that would have been sold years ago, had they been advertised, ft is better business to advertise them at a slight loss than it is to carry them hoping for a demand that will never come. Create a demand by advertising them at a low figure. Dispose of them and save money. The continuous and judicious advertiser always ha a fresh stock Ex.
