OUR MOTHER EARTH.
" Tnere has been a period of depression
throughout the agricultural portions of
the United States that has naturally
caused a like depression in all other in
dustries, As a result of this, farm lands
have depreciated in value, farming has
come to be looked upon as an unprofita
ble pursuit, and there has been in con
sequence a rapid filling up of the cities
at the expense of the rural population
The movement is a natural one, for it
serves to adjust the elements of supply
and demand, and the final result will be
to enhance the value of farm products,
and consequently of the land itself,
It will be but a lew years until the
landed proprietor, the owner of the
broad acres, will be looked upon, even in
this country, as the most favored of
men. The country is 'settling up rap
idly, and when ' there are no more new
lands to be acquired those who have
farms to bequeath to their children will
have the noblest of all inheritances to
leave them.
This is a grand old earth, literally our
mother from whose bosom all of her
children are furnished sustenance,
Pew, indeed,look upon the soil with other
than the idea of its value as an invest
ment. In the practical every-day life- -the
perpetual rush and grasping for
money, the sentimental is entirely over
looked. Tour true patriot loves the
soil that sustains him, and so loving it
he is apt to own some of it. There is
pride, a self-reliance in the ownership
of land; a feeling that the country is
your country because you own a part of
it. We have an inborn love of land,
not for its value from a money stand'
point, but because we look upon it as f
benefactor. All that we have of pleas
ure, of joy, of hope, of sadness, are of the
earth. And when no longer we tread
the shady paths, or listen to the winds
whisperings to the trees, or bear the
splashing of the running waters, or see
the beauties wrought when the glad soil
drinks in the rain and turns with dewy
lips to meet the kisses of the vernal
sun ; when age comes on to stiffen the
supple limbs that erstwhile danced for
the very joyousness of living, and bends
the back to bring the silvery head yet
nearer to the earth that soon will open
uer rooea to receive and shelter us
we should go gladly and willingly, a's to
a mother's arms to be lulled to sleep and
iaia to rest, in ere on her bosom we
may sleep. The seasons may chaee
each other swiftly around the starry
circle; thetide of years will ebb and
flow ; the winds and the rain will beat
down the lowly mound that marks the
spot where our good mother has shel
terea us, ana in a lew Drier years we
shall pass away from the memory of
men it is the kind old earth that will
give us a resting place forever. It pro
vides for us in life, and takes care of us
wnen aeaa. why then should we not
look upon it with the eyes of sentimen
and affection, and be moved to pride at
the sense of ownership in it?
A FAMILY AFFLICTION.
Rev. Wm. Cleveland, brother of the
president has been asked to resign by
the representatives of the congregation
of his church, the vote being 28 to 1
jar. Cleveland, instead of resigning,
will appeal to the presbytery. The
president seems to be afflicted the same
way, and while it is not probable that
he will be asked to resign, yet If the
matter could be put to a vote, it would
be found as nearly unanimous as that
concerning his brother. Just now the
chief executive occupies the peculiar
distinction of being a president without
a party. Elected as a democrat, Mr,
Cleveland tried to hover too many eggs
that did not belong in his nest, and eo
spoiled all. He refuses to follow the
policy of his party, does not believe in
republicanism, and has no confidence in
mugwumps. At the same time he has
no definite policy of bis own, bnt is just
drifting along, going like the old "nig
ger, through the woods, and spreading
his Bails to every breeze, in hopes of
being nominated for a third term.
In a little more than a year the na
tional conventions will be held, and
when dir. Cleveland reads the proceed
iDgs of the republican convention h
can easily name his successor.' '
The state board of horticulture, which
has been in session at Portland for sev
eral days, adjourned yesterday . until
October. The meeting was said to be a
very profitable one. . The rules and reg
ulations governing the quarantining of
peet-infected trees and stock have been
put in simple and concise form. They
will be given to the preea as soon as they
are passed upon by an attorney.
The letters in the Oregonian on the
resources of the state and the steps nec
essary to develop them are very interest-
ng, though necessarily they are more or
less repititions of each other. The gen
eral opinion seems to be that we. must
practice economy, diversify our farming,
grow everything we need and something
besides, and above all to be a unit in
everything that will advance the inter
ests of the state. "
BUDS, Society
buds, young: wo
men Just entering
the doors of soci
ety or woman
hood, require the
wisest care. To
be beautiful and
charming they
must have perfect
health, with all it
implies a clear
bright eyes and
good spirits. At
this period the
young woman is
especially sensi
tive, and many
nervous troubles,
which continue
through life, ha-vs)
their origin at this
time. If there be
pais, headache, backache, and nervous dis-
turoances, or tne general neaitn not gooa,
the indicioas use of medicine' shonld b
employed. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion is the best restorative tonic ana nerv
ine at this time. The best bodily condition
results irom its use. It's a remeor spe
cially indicated for those delicate weak
nesses and derangements that afflict wo
menkind at one period or another. You'll
find that the woman who has falthtullY
used the "Prescription" is the picture of
health, she looks mail and she feels well.
In catarrhal inflammation, in chronic dis
placements common to women, where there
are symptoms of backache, dizziness or
Ciintinfr. bearing; down sensations, disor
dered stomach, moodiness. Catitrue. etc.
the trouble is surelv disoelled and the
sufferer brought back to health and good
spirits.
