WILLAMETTE FArJRMtelt. they ure so numerous they nro al ways nbleto bjock the .wheels of pro gress and general emancipation, and force too'iniiny of-the "big fry "or Hcnslblo people under modern jug gernauts along with them. The time may, However, have fully come, jn the cycles of ages and humuu de velopment In Oregon, when the no ble farmers wh'ojare.,'uow agitating may tlnd that a sufficient number of their brethren havo stepped tip above the 't small fry" plane to make n movo strong enough tosdlscbver the exact remedy for the evils of which they complain, and having back-bone enough to apply it. This is a grave subject. It requires thought, and thorough investigation, as well as united action. The dlscaso producing the pangs which cause the people to groan may be found to be of a chronic nature, affecting not one organ only, but gcnorally diffused through a system, which will have to be removed by a more general use of purges, poultices, compresses, di ets, and lances, than our doctors may have supposed. It Is the business of n statesman to look into these mat ters with "open eyes," while it is the business of a politician and dem agogue to close his own eyes and pull the wool over the eyes of such as desire to see. In the meantime, !et the honest yeomanry go ahead iOt them Investiyute. It is not my purposo to turn them aside froin41io path chosen, or my hopo to be ablo to show them a better way out of their difficulties than they may be ablo to discover themselves Before dosing, however, I will say that It would bo exactly In harmony with my progranimo to carry out Mr. Fin layson's most excellent suggestion to placo tho Winner in tho hands of every rural voter. The peoplo want ityhlno mistake. Give them the runner, Impress upon them the Al bany motto, " Now, fanner, all ket p yor.r t) c u e n," and all Kill bo well, If things arc uot iuIlo right now. Aiuu. IlUSMA'S ADVAXCi: INTO AKIA. labia's advance Into Central Asia, under the covor of her current quarrel with the Khanate of Khiva, Is Just now the object of much anxious soli Undo to the authorities in England. The llrltlsh Hon bo fur has contented Himself with a growl merely at'HiU ufcldlous approach to England' India loxsesslons J but after awhile we may xpect to hear ono of thososubstnutlnl ,vare wh lob" never full to proceed from him when tho llrltlsh "honor" Is threatened. There Is something almost of the lnexorablcness of futo in the quiet, secret, and pcriditciit cllbrls of Itussla to establish herself some whero lu tho heart of Asia, so that. n tho chapter of chances she may conic day plant her flag, beyond the mountains dudsteppes of Central Asia, over against' ttio coveted land of India. The crawl of IUarmles In this respect may bo likened to the slow, dragging approach across tha'annBUlM of a Kreat serpent euutl6uslyfcIWJ m way and seeking with Its head Ingres at all favorallle poiuts; baffled hither and yon, it withdraws to patiently uwalt somo other coign of vantage; It Is evident that the day Is approach ing when England must fuee the responsibility that Hiifsla seems iletermlned to foiee ujwn her, and perhaps the Urt inimcdlnto dawn of this day will -bo wheu Khiva shall havo yielded as," she shortly muxl yield-to thu superiority of the Nubian arm".
