A short time since the JouitNAij raised the cpuestion whether there bad not been a diminution In the Income or earning capacity of small farmers, householders nndlaboreie, aud a corresponding multiplication if great fortunes. Facts were cited to prove that a depression of these elements in some way had been brought about alt over the nation, while millionaires had multiplied. We asked what is the cause. There was no denying the facts. Kvei: Chaunccy Depcw declared that agri culture had got pretty near the bot tom of the grave of depression. Any close newspaper reader could pile up facts by the hundred to ea tublish our assertion. Tlio Orego Ian admits millionaires liuve multi plied. But it denies the cxistcnru of any depression. It cannot deny the detailed facts, so graphically stated by Depew. Yet It dunks the va lidity of the generalization fousided upon those facts. What does it of fer tn the contrary? In its daily oftiopt. 20th, and last weekly edition, it oflers as ''proois and facts" a rosy picture of the pres ent comforts of life enjoyed bj farmers aud laborers as compared with their dihcomNrts and unfavor able surroundings of forty years ago. It argues that the "conditions of living for farmers, householders aud laborers" were muoh harder then than now. It tries to show that all such live In comparative luxury now, to what they did then. It con cludes that because the privations of pioneer life aro no longer nec essary, therefore everybody is en joying luxuries. According to the Oregoniau there are no hi.rd times at present. It says: "Farmers, householders and labor erx" havp been able to command more and more of the comforts and luxuries lliitl add pleasures to ex istence: and never before were they thle to command so mauy as to day. rnese are lacis, every intelligent person knows them, aud it makes no dihVrence what Dessimis's. socialists, demagogues and profess ional airitatiirs tuiv to tho nontiiirv. Candor, truth and common sense now and tbeu should claim a hear ing, even amid a Xoachian deluge of pessimistic declamations. We can stand the abuse of a grant paper like the Oregoniau better than it can stand the array of facts we cited to it to sustain our asser tion, of the prevalence of wide spread depression among producers and laborers the past few years. We submit that its comparison ol pioneer hardships to present com forts is not an answer to out asser tion. It explains not thesituatfon. The Oregoniau might as well com pare present conditions with those of the middle ages or the days of Adam and claim that as proof ot its position. It seems tills was the ouly line of argument It had to Ml back upon, however, uud it Is hardly fair to explode this last relume. The answer is no answer. It docs not cover the fatal admisslou that millionaires multiply. How could they thus multiply out of ull natur al ratio In any kuown state of socie ty, unless they were etiricned by processes that depleted the produc er? There is so much produced in auy nation. If by any urtillcial processes certain classes take the lion's share, certainly a less amount remains for the producer. Is this not true? We will assume that by skilfully contrived organizations capital is enabled to get higher rates of Inter est, higher margins ot profits on necessities of life, higher charges for transporting crops and merchandise will then not less remain to the producer for bis year's labor, or to the laborer after his wages pay his family Hiring expenses? Does not every combine, trust, monopoly, or agreement to depress prices of pro duce, or euhancA prices of commodi ties, virtually transfer wealth from the many to the few ? Here Is a practical Illustratien: A flalem merchant pujs f.500 a month more freight on the slnglo article of building cement because a few bund bars iu the river allow tho H. I'. Ry, corporation to charge a fictitious freight rate, which it does not charge when boats nre running. Does thlc addillouul f-VX) on one item In one month not ultimately come out of the consumer tocm fell the corporal ion? These are some of the reasons why the producingaiidcoufeuniiii(cl isses are depressed uud why millionaires multiply. Their Income and the results of (heir I ibor are clpicd uud tllejud ut every corner and turn by the result ot proietMcs beyond their control, so fur.

It Is tho Idea that counts tn the world of to-day, not tho man who presents It. The blnck orator before a convention of Mississippi ex-rebels and ex-slave-holders com pelled their attention, bceauso be had a sound Idea to present. The Oregon Inn's tondency to fly tho track, belittle and abuse all who do notagno with It or who stop to show up the false-work of some ot Its urguments, Is unworthy modern journalism, and wo do not bclioe is in the best spirit of that really great paper.

Thk Jouhnau tlnds it unneces sary to repeat over nnd over that it Is not an organ of any local Inter est. Its management is not connec ted in any way with any real estate or corporation interest. It lops to have a lively appreciation for nil public Improvements. Its ittock holders are all men who have a vital concern in tho future of Salem. But the. Journal has no personal, private or political axes to grind. There are no "strings" In any way upon its conduct as a newspaper or its attitude upon nny public ques tion. It desires to command respect by retaining the confi dence of the people. We ehall advocate what we believe Is right under nil circumstances, but if we find we are wrong at nny time, we hope to muster sufficient frankness uud matinees to acknowl edge it publicly. THE JOURNAL If ts no enemies to harass or punish, and must treat all persons alike. A fair and just disposition can nlon enable n newspaper to have a pcr m inent existence and exert auy In tlueuco for good in a community.

"Elenore and I have been talking this over together for some time. You ladles probably think it ridicu lous that a girl of nine should bet pondering over her future, but ever since she has been in Kindergarten, w here they uie led to love work uud laborers by direct participation, she has been wishing she might be something. I saw tho opportunity aud did not let it slip. I told her she might be something, and asked her to choose. She decided oli many tilings that l.er childish imag ination suggested, but we soou learne I between us that they were impractical. For Instance, she could not very well be a shoemaker or tt blacksmith, although they -were first choice with her" "Why, the Idoa," broke in u woman who had never been Inside a Kindergarten. To tho majority it seemed quite natural. "After the matter had been At some time undecided by my daugh ter, I earnestly took It in hand my self.
