THE IRRIGATION CONGRESS.
The irrigation congress is in session at
Denver. We are a firm believer in ir
rigatioo, having been raised in a coun'
try where nothing could be grown with'
out it. We believe that wherever small
streams, or for that matter large ones,
can be utilized to irrigate lands already
farmed, that is to raise alfalfa or clover
to enable the farmer to raise his hay,
pasture, etc., it would be proper. With
'the proposition for the government to go
into the making of reservoirs and taking
'charge of the streams for the purpose of
extending the farming area, we are not
in sympathy. The time will come
when it will be proper to do so ; but
with the present over-production of
grain and other crops, we do not believe
the country requires it or would be bene-
: fited by it.
There is no use in increasing the area
of producing lands. What we. need is a
larger market, not a larger production.
Irrigation on a small scale on lands al
ready farmed permits of a larger range
- of crops, and so would tend to lessen the
' congestion of the cereal markets. In
Eastern Oregon it . would be beneficial
because it would permit the farmer to
- raise hogs and cattle, and thus pot him
in condition to feed his wheat and pat
it on the market in a shape that would
not tend to the further lowering of prices
of the cereals. Irrigation on this plan
would be of great benefit ; but irriga
tion calculated to simply increase the
Agricultural area and the' growing of
till more produce would at the present,
at least, be a positive injury to the
farmer, who already has all the load be
can carry.
RAISE HOOS.
The fact is being demonstrated more
forcibly every year that the world is
producing more wheat than ia yearly
consumed, and some means must be de
vised to dispose of the surplus, or prices
must necessarily decline. The United
ftates has found numerous competitors
in the foreign wheat market, and with
the completion of the new Russian
transcontinental railway, will have still
another which will pour millions of
bushels into the foreign market. The
steady and growing demand for pork
furnishes a means of meeting this com'
petition and will have the advantage of
creating a firm and steady home market,
which is always a more formidable com
petitor than the foreign market. Wheat
raisers must breed hogs the same' as
farmers in the corn belt do, and packing
houses will be established which will
take the stock, and the farmer will have
the double advantage of securing pav
ing returns for his wheat crop and the
benefit which accrues to the farm from
consuming its products and returning
the offal to enrich the eoil. West Coaet

FOR OFFICE ONLY.
There is no need of a populist party in
California since both republicans and
democrats are making their fight on a
populist platform. It is a case wherein
politics have gone mad. Principles
have been lost sight of, and the cam
paign has degenerated into a wild scram'
ble for the offices. Each side advocates
free silver, each out-vies the other in
damning the Southern Pacific railroad
These are the issues each party has with
itself, for they are both on the same
side. The tariff cuts no figure, and free
trade is not heard, but the orange groves
echo with the clamor against the rail
roads, and the orchards murmur in
silvery tones 16 to 1. There is no abuse
of opponents, for they are all opponents ;
all populists except in name, and all all
things to all men in their inordinate de
sire to get office.
. The craze has extended into Nevada,
only there republicans and democrats
have combined and are having a picnic
of their own.
Our charity is broad enough to forgive
-even the editor of the Salem Statesman
for the unkind things he said abont us
the other day. Nay more, the sponta
neons uprising of those generous im
pulses indigenous to our system, com'
pete us to congratulate our friend of the
Statesman upon the establishing of an
other industry at the state capital, and
this, too, without its being compelled to
be located there by a broken down con
stitution, a The moving of the Keeley
institute from Forest Grove to Salem is
b move in the right direction, especially
so now that the legislature is about to
meet. - The institute was prospering
where it was, doing a good business on
the single standard basis; but its change
of location is one of those delicate bits
of flattery that only the tact of a Ward
McAllister and the keen perception of a
Tom Reed could have suggested.
According to the instructions received
from Washington Major Post will soon
survey a route for the boat railway on
the Oregon side around the Celilo-Dalles
rapids, aord will also purchase a right of
way if prices are satisfactary. It will
no dottbt be several years before this
work will be completed, but that an ap
propriation has been make gives prom
ise that it will be accomplished some
time. It is seldom the government
abandons any work of this kind it un
dertakes, though it is often dreadfully
slow about completing it. It is, there
fore, safe to presume that the road will
be finished some time.
Reports concerning the bop crop are
anything but encouraging. About Eu
gene it is said many yar&s are worth
less and the hops are retting owing to
mould and lice. Many of those who
had made arrangements to pick the
crop have abandoned it on account of
the sudden change in cenditions. Prices
are very low, and only the very best
quality will pay for picking. This will
prove a serious loss to the country
around Eugene, as well as to other por
tions of tbe Willamette valley.

"Ayer's Cathartic Fills cured me of sick
headache and my husband of neuralgia. We
think there is
No Better Medicine,
and have induced many to use it.
' Thirty-five years ago this Spring, I was
run down by hard work and a succession of
colds, which made me so feeble that it was
an effort for me to walk. I consulted the
doctors, but kept sinking lower until I had
given up all hope of ever being better.
Happening to be in a store, one day, where'
medicines were sold, the proprietor noticed
my weak and sickly appearance, and, after
a few questions as to my health, recom
mended me to try Ayer's Pills. I had little
faith in these or any other medicine, but
concluded, at last, to take his advice and try
a box. Before I had used them all, I was.
very much better, and two boxes cured me.
I am now 80 years old; but I believe that
If it had not been for Ayer's Fills, I should
have been in my grave long ago. I buy 6
boxes every year, which make 210 boxes up
to this time, and I would no more be with
