Wallaee, the di UnguinhtHl scientific writer mul thinker, Is much coiicwmhI tw cause, m he thinks, modern Hoelety U being chiefly recruited from the ranks of Id leas worthy memliers, ud auggwto u a remedy an econo mically reformed society something like Edward Bellamy' dream of social regeneration. The trouble with Mr. Bellamy's HK'-Inlintlo theory Is that it U ouly a dream, and a very incoherent dream with out the substratum of a single practical Idea to build upon. Any one knows this, or ought to know it, who lias carefully read his IhhU, "Looktng Ita'award," and Mr. Wallace materially weakens his argnment by giving credieuce to Bellamy's socialistic vagaries. Prof. W, J. You minis, the talent ed editor of tho popular Bieuee Moutlily, discus the subject from a far more practical standpoint, in our opinion, than doe the learned English scientist. Mr. Youiuaus, ays: "Doubtlosa there Is soma room for appreht'tisfciti as to the future, and, 11' w might venture to make a susKwtlou lu our turn, It would to that our truublm, luoti a they r, largvly arise frota ovrr loelsintloli, hudtliK to a hurt ful dtvllne lit the 'U of Individual responsibility, and from altogvther tot weak method of ilenlluir with crlini' aud paupertNU.

ALMS rOH THK POOH. Gen. Booth, leader of the S.ilvu tion army, him written a lmok, DarkcHt England and the Wav Out." The indellttigable genen has been among the slums of Lon don aud seen the poor of that great city la all their miserable squalor, filth and ram. Ills book is a reve lation to the aristocratic pride an .wealth of the world's metropolis, and my lords and dukes and "blue bloods" of England geucrally are sending in their checks for f 100 and $500 each to the Salvation army leader. Mr. Booth proposes going among the slums of the great city and preaching the goKiMtl of sanitation cleaulimsw, better food water and raiment. A irnisil humanitarian Idea, but noble and philanthropic as the movement is it needs be supplemented by wisor and better methods than mere alms glTlng and temporary relief of t he poor. "In Darkest England and the Way Out" is a problem which will not be solved in this century Its solution means the gradual up lifting of the social aud economic conditions which have producct. the present poverity, and it will re quire long and laborious years of moral, social and educational re generation to reclaim the physically and mentally incapacitated London's mighty army of dwnrfei and impoverished humanity. A correspondent In this week's paper calls attention to a threat ened danger to the future piwtier Ity of fruit culture in this country. The point raised Is evldeutly of some importance, at least nursery men would do well to give the sub ject some thought uml attention. The theory which our eorrwpon dent advance Is plausible, vixt That by eontiutml grafting from non-lienring fruit trees the repro ductive principle will gradually die out etc. Tho thought Is a good one, and ae should lie pleas ed to hear from other persons who have had largo exjKrlenee in the businoss. "A Fruit Culturist" is an Intelligent and well known far mer of Polk county who has glveu considerable atteul ion to the subject which he discusses. The West Shore is making brilliant cartoon fight against the deduction for indebtedness and mortgage tax laws. Last week's issue of that journal has a comical caricature which represents thwc old worn out, betattercd laws as mutually belaboring each other, while capital walks away uninjured with a broad grin upon its conn tenance. The fight is on, and the next ninety days will decide the battle here in Oregon. It is, ns some of onr exchanges tersely put it, new Oregon vs. old Oregon. That is to say, it is the progressive, wide-awake, public spirited and enterprising citizen of today against the conservative, go-easy, let-well-enough alone and sleepy individual who is afraid to leave the old tow-path and venture out upon the broad and free prairies. Mr. E. C. Pentland is writing some interesting editorial letters from the Pugct Sound country to this paper. lie is thoroughly alive on the taxation, mortgage tax and usury laws of Oregon, alive to their modification or repeal, and as he discusses the) question quite intelli gently we call the attention of our readers to his articles. The tax ation question is up for discussion in this state, and like Banquo's ghost, it wont down. An intelli gent and critical discussion of the aubject, in the light of facts and ev idence, is the only way to properly ettle it ' ' i , The Japanese are a highly imi tatlv ami rather progressive nuv. More than any other Mongolian people they are learning to assimi late the spirit of modern eivllUa tion. Not only the religious, phil osophicid and scieutillo ideas of the western world are getting a solid foothold in the Mikado's em pins but western political Ideas art) also liciug established among tho people. Japan's first parlia ment was 0Hncd in Novemls-r. It has !UH) memlicitt. One hundred and niue of these belong to the tip per classes, while the remainder represent the couiinou jioople.

When we ses the old apple tree loaded to Its nliuimt espao It with perfectly moulded and delieioits fruit, yl with trunk slid limbs Cohered with moss, sod many of the brunches in a dead or decaying eouiiilion, are surprised to uote Its power ot repnnluo tion.

Hums (nuts are better adapted to thr soil sod climate of this valley limn others Indued, we bavs several different kinds ot soil each of which is specially adupted to certain varieties of fruit etc. This fact ihonld receive due attention. There is an axiom that "'ike will prodnoe like.' This is a law of nature, and as man cm not successfully resist its jnlluence, ti t fruit grower of the future will bear this law in mind aud duly estimate its value Tho cat u ul observer will readily adraii that if we desire to produce the peacb tree of its kind must be planted, aud the same in regard to otbf fruits. Willi many persons it is considered thai their work is dime, so for us selective re production is oonceriiej, alien they hate onon plnuted a la rue variety of trees Hut it bus bt'i o proven from careful ob servation that trri s of the snme variety do not always prodnoo alike even when all the surrounding ore apparently the same. 1 bis fiint can not lie traced to any other ciiubu thuu nature's law whii b proclaim that ''like will produce like." Uow in this? Well, I cnu only offer the followum solution of the problem: When nurserymen una oiittmus, as they invari ably do, from non bearing trees the (Irs set lies a teodoncy to weaken the produc tive vitality of the tree, and if persisted n will produce mm bearing, worthies trees, and tae tamo theory holds good lit regard to quality of the fruit. This is what I mean, the danger I hint at, when I any that at the present time ''we have an opportunity to restore our louses the following luaion, which can not be s easily done hy thn prospective fruit grower."
