The Alliance vote in November 189U all over tho United States must have run tip to nearly a million. IJy nctunl majorities, by combinations or holding a balance of power, all but two legislatures tho past winter have elected Alli ance United States senators. The re-election ot Mitchell In Oregon and Stanford In California are essentially victories for those reforms most ag gressively championed by the organ ized fanners. Tho shrewd observer must see that tho farmers' move ment is a growing one and tho ques tion Is, what is tho motivo power? The fanner has been slow to move. but what is It that Impels him for ward to political action by tho hun dred thousand '? The national Farmers' Congress was held in the midst of the excit ing cumpalgn of 1883, which com pletely threw tho democrats out of power and put tho republicans in, and did not In tho least check the fanners' movement. Wo must re gard thepo'cutial force behind that movement os historical rather than political. It Is based upon far reaching conditions, causes that lie remote, rather than objections im mediately before the eye of tho ag ricultural kicker. It Is not for any particular fault found with tho ad ministrations of Cleveland or Harri son, so much as it is in a general objection to tho whole present polit ical system. Tho force behind tho fanners' movement in politics is not so much based on a demand for a greater share in tho political ad ministration of tho government, as it Is a protest for being entirely ex cluded from participation In a peo ple's government, and while being taxed In every way tho farmer is denied the benefits of legislation. Tho secret of the force behind the fanner iu politics today was ably disclosed in an address issued to the voters of Oregon in 18S8 by a com mittee that attended the farmers' congress. It had little effect then but Its influence was no doubt con siderable. It charged that tho agri cultural masses have not been for years in tho enjoyment of tho vast wealth which their unfaltering industry created; whllo eight mil lions out of fifty millions were farmers, agricultural exports aver aged $553,000,000 a year, against a total for all other products exported of $103,000,000; the fanners produced to send abroad 77 cts. of every $1.00 which enriches the whole nation; tho value of farm property iu 18-50 was $3,007,000,000; iu 1600, $7,080,- 000,000, the farmer owuing CO per cent, of all wealth; in 1880 farm values had risen to $12,101,000,000, a gain of ouly 59 per cent. In 20 years, or half the gain made iu the ton voars from 1850 to 1800; other nroperty'increased in value $25,359, 000,000, a gain of 410 per cent.; tho farmers, who owned In 1800 eight billions of property, added In 20 years four billions; in tho same period tho owners of six billions find thoir property Increased by some twenty flvo billions ! Aud they aro not fanners. It is idle to say that manufacturers, railroads, the development of cities and commerce caused this great accretion of wealth iu tho hands of tho non-airricultural classes. It is idle for tho farmer to charge that national b.inka, tariff, currency or war-tnxes did it. Tho fact remains unchangeable. Tho farnior could endure tho great disparity in the Increase of wealth, were his condi tion u prosperous one. Rut no one will claim that the nation over farm profits have been largo or oven fair, or that farming property or farm products havo kopt up iu values, except near largo cities. If tho above Is a correct stntomout of historic-fact behind the political discontent of tho farmer, (and we cannot doubt it as It Is tukun from tho census,) It must bo evident to every one that no meagre concesilon or political combine am still the present uprising. If this nioveniBiit means unythlug, It means u polltl cal revolution 4hat will an surely sweep out of oxlstence certain politi cal Institution of tho prewmt, as that slavory has been swept away. The doyB uro numbered whu mil lionaires ouly aro to bo sent to tho United SUtoa senate, aud when federal uatrnmuje and oorpretlon power are to be munrfiitled to dtftwt menxurett demanded by the iwople. Tne foree behind the fnrmiv move ment will tlvo thU ouuulry more uearly a pwiplo'a government. rmAMATtc. Cnrollno Gago Is a beautiful woman on tho stage. Her physique Is at Its maturity. Her grnco Is natural, statuefquo und Improving In all Wnys. "Bho Is still tt growing actress, as nil must have noticed who studied her closely at her present appearance, as contrasted, with her last visit. She has grown away from stillness aud mannerism, and with proper education has capa bilities of dramatic greatness. Affec tations of speech and crude rantiugs of tho poor starveling bam-stormcrs were once part of the equipment of many afterwards noted actresses. So these defects should not prejudlco persons ngninst Miss Gago now. The question Is oneof great Interest, whether sho is capable of higher aspirations in dramatic art. Her "Camllle" last night showed strong points. Sho should rely less on her striking form nnd brilliant stage beauty and seek for tho inner life aud thought of thedrnma, and sho may become great. For all practical purposes as nn actress sho is as handsome as Mrs. Langtry. Her cmoliounl capabilities are great. Her spirit should rise to tho height of her slumbprlug talents. Her support Is pardonably Inferior, as It has como tho fashion for showy nctresses who revel in beauty of form and luxuriate lit riches of wardrobe. Mr. Hillyor's love-making is thatof a jaundiced undertaker or forlorn grnvedlgger.

Since Hogarth depicted tho shock ing cruelties of Ills day, and how tho passion for cruelty beginning with torturing of insects ended in horrible human maiming and brutal homicide, thero has beon a wonder ful awakening of conscience upon the subject nil over tho civilized world. Tho movement for tho sup piessionof cruelty to God's creatures, whether thoy bo Ignorant humans, abusing dumb brutes or infuriated de mons beating and torturing feeble women and helpless children, has reached Salem. It will benefit the entire community by tho develop ment of a healthier moral sentiment, a public conscience nioro keeuly alive to tho disgraceful barbarisms so often practiced unnoticed. It will bo u positive benefit to all who en trust the caro of domestic animals to others. Tho dray company will get better service, because kinder treat ment, out of Its drivers. Tho livery man, who lets his horses to many, who now caro llttlo how they treat them, will now feel that If his animals nro abused or neglected, tho eye of tho law will bo upon tho of fender. Roys who spend their days In Idleness, Inspired only with a mud desire to kill soinothlng, may find themselves In the city calabooso for killing harmless birds.

New YoltK, March 24. Tho cial announcement was made night tnat the Washington National bank nt No. 1 Broadwny, would not open Its doors today. Tho bank's resources have beon loaned out to tho frleuds of tho president, and tho discovery of the condition was accidentally made. The bank is not n member of tho clearing house association, but clears tho Gallatin National bank. Under tho rule of tho clearing house which went into effect Jauuary 1st, banks clearing in this way must submit their accounts to examination by tho clearing houso. Yesterday Bauk Examiner Hep burn, representing the clearing house, appeared attho Washington Nntiounl bauk to examine Its affairs He soon discovered that its capital was impaired.

Washington, Mar. 24. Tho com mute appointed nt tho recont con vention of tho freo American Press association called upon President Harrison yesterday, and presented an address urging tho appointment of colored men in tho world'B fair committee nnd also a capftble negro jurist to fill a place on the bench of tho federal Judiciary. Tho address says, In part: "Our national progress bus been rapid in all directions; many millions in money are the value of tho products of negro labor; tho wculth of many great states haa been created by Ills toll. Bolleving In your sincere deslro to extend im partial treatment to all classes we respectfully Invito your excellency to consldor tho propriety of placing soma one of this class to peculiarly lllustralo the nation's progress, in a Milk Fun ctioiiH of the Cow.

Astolhovnluo of tho clover plant to tho furmor, wo would cull attention to tho experiments carried on nt tho Iowa Ilomestoud farms In Adair county, which resulted In an Increased yield that may hardly bo thought possible, by soiuo. Tho fhst experiment was as follews: Two acres of land wore k4 apart of us near tho same quality us possible, with tho exception thnt ono aero had been In clover ono year, cut for hay, nud tho second crop turned under In November. This other aoro hud hud two crops of corn takon from It. ufter a crop of timothy. Both acres wero sown on tho same day to (lax, from tho haino seed, and treated alike in all respects. Tho clover aero yielded fourteen and ono hulf bushels of prime seedj und tho com stalks aero ten and a half; In othor words, tho tho valuo of tho second crop was four bushels of flux, and tho cash valuo wustho vnluooffour buahels of flux less tho cost of threshing. It would bo fair 1-) say I lint, taking tho price of ono year with another, tho valuo of tho second crop of mammoth clover that will cut two tons and a hulf to the uero as a first crop Is not far from $4; In other words, a ploeo of land that will yield a not profit of $1 jer uoro, if Bowed Iu the same drop ttfter It hns beeu treated to a crop of mammoth clover will yield a profit of fi per acre. Thefeocond experiment was with corn under timllar conditions and resulted In u difference of 27 bushels In favor of the clover sod. ImliiFuf lMi ar known by inil'ure aturmtuui.
