A deep discontent i now prevalent among the farming class and many are only awaiting the time when they can get away from the country and go to the city to live. Especially is this discontent no ticeable among the boys who are attracted by the glitter and excitement of city life. Where one country lad arises to wealth and influence in th cities there are fifty wbo are doomed to disappointment and who are forced into a fierce struggle with poverty and want. The competition in the cities is now so sharp that unless a man bas power ful friends, or is an exceptionally brainy fellow, there is no possible chance for bis rising above a day laborer's position. And with the laboring class competition has forced them to work for a pittance barely sufficient to pay tbeir expenses, leaving nothing to lay by for a start in business or to ward off becoming a pauper in case of sickness or accident. One-half of the farms of Clackamas connty are for sale. The only reason assigned by the owners is that they want to move to town or that their boys have already left for the city and they cannot longer look after the farm. If the farmers only real ized it they are tbe best off of any class. The fanners' boys especially have far more op portunities for attaining a competence and a comfortable home than the boys of tbe cities. If the country boy acquires tbe same education and training for bis work that is absolutely necessary to even a reasonable success in tbe city, bis cause for discontent will soon cease and be can live in peace and plenty with no fear of losing bis job, or of being evicted by bis landlord, or the fail ore of a bank ruining his business. Wkst Virginia has passed a law forever disfranchising a man bavin been convicted of selling his vote, or of asking money for it. Such a law would do some good in Ore gon, though its need Is largely done away with by our present ballot law which makes vote buying an unprofitable business, as the ward beeler is unable to know whether be received the goods or not. It may be a surprise to our mill men to know that Nashville, Tennessee, is the larg est manufacturer of hardwood lumber in the United States as well as of the world. It is the greatest milling city of the Soath, and is one of the cities whose industries have been wholly built up si.ice the war. The exodus to Alaska this season prom ises ta be tbe largest ever known. The mines are the principal attraction, but the fisheries are drawing many men to the far north. 8ANDY SAVINGS. A School Meeting Without a Row-Debating Society to Close after a Joint Pecate. A NEW DAGGER. A return tide has set in with ear foreign im migration and nearly as many are return ing as come over. But the serious part is that it is tbe educated, law-abiding immi grants who are returning to their native lands, whilst the lawless, ignorant rabble from Sontbern and Central Europe are pouring in in still greater numbers. On this subject The Interior of Chicago has the fol lowing pointed remarks: There is a general jubilation in tbe East over the fact that the tide of immigration has turned, and thousands are going back to the old world every week Irom Ameri can ports. But so far as we see our ex changes fail to note that it is tbe wrong crowd that is going back. It is not the Nea politan but tbe Dane ;'not tbe Hun but tbe Swede. The Mosts and the Schwabs and the Niebes and tbe I.ings only flow in one direction. We are losing thousands of hon est workmen upon whom conditions of life in the old world never pressed so heavily but they are willing to return to it. But the drastic measures introduced in every legis lative txxly of Europe to purge itself of an archists, will result in dumping upon our shores a less desirable class than ever. In dustrial depression has no terrors for a class that never wanted to work; and riot and turbulence attract the riotous as the thun der of the captains and the shoutings draw the war horse to the field of conflict. Un less measures for our relief are promptly in troduced we shall have fewer immigrants, but worse ones. Sandt, March 18. As your scribe over heard a conversation inquiring what had be come of the Sandy correspondent that he don't write any more, to show that he is still alive I will again give a few items. Saint Patrick's day Is bright, clear, and warm and nice as a day in May, and tbe splendid weather we are baring Is prized by all, especially tbe farmer w ho Is as busy as ever sowing grain. About two-thirds of the spring grain is sown, and a good deal is tip and looks fine. Fruit trees will soon be in full bloom. Grass is green and growing, and the sweet melodies of the song birds can he heard. Everything shows that spring is here. Our school meeting was a peaceful affair, passing off without any riot. F. Oeotsch was elected clerk and 8. D. Coleman di rector. Miss Mumpower will open a five months term of echooi In dtstrict No. 10 Monday next. A dance was given at Kelly's store Satur eay night.

A large crowd was present, and considera ble interest was manifested in tbe question, Resolved, Tbat foreign immigration should be prohibited. It was decided in favor of the negative. The literary exercises which followed were excellent. Ed. Bruns, presi dent, cjosed the club for this season, and delivered a farewell speech. Arrangements were made to challenge tbe Eagle Creek club to a joint debate, to take place at Sandy Ridge school house. Wm. Myers, John Epperson and Ed. F. liruns were elected a committee to prepare the challenge. Rkadkh. Willamette Falls News. Wim.amkttk Fam.s, March 10. See ing no items from this place I Ventura to Bond you a few.

China is at last making serious efforts to secure peace with Japan. The emperor bas sent his chief viceroy, Li Hung Chang, to Japan with full powers to arrange the terms of peace with the emperor of Japan. Japan will demand a heavy money indemnity as well as a cession of territory and valuable commercial privileges as the price of peace. In the mean time her armies continue their steady advance on Peking1 with the Chi nese army offering but a feeble resistance. The prospet is good, if Li does not get a tiurryon him and give the Japs some evi dence of the sincerity of bis mission, tbat tbe capital of his country will be in the bands of tbe Japanese and his emperor a captive or a fugitive. . Thk Walla Walla Statesman says " the state of Washington needs a new constitu tion." As tbe present constitution is hardly old enough to be weaned, it does not seem possible that another can be needed. Now, Jier in Oregon, we are getting along in tbe Meadow Brook Notes, Meadow Bhook.
