DC 03 no'. Thira: thi. Alllanco has Mado a Silicic Demand That 1b not Koau onablo anil KlGht. Wo extract the following from a let lor in tho .Southern Allianco Farmer, writton by Col. W. H. 11. Seary, of Cirillin: 1 am glad to tee the alliance awake to the gmit importance of the political illness which confronts the nation. Let us study thoso questions without prejudice mid act us heeoineth thumon who love their country and their con ntiy'H good above all other con sidcrutions. I do not think wo liavo made a Mnglc demand that is not reas onable and right in principle, and it is proper that we hhould stand in favor of the principles at all times and on all occasions. But, hrethcrn, let us not forgot that it takes time to accomplish great results, and that it is therefore right and proper that we do what wo can, ouelves, thiough personal ofl'ort, for tho upbuilding of tho farming classes, while these long political strug gles uro working out tho great llntin cml problem of the nation. However great and equitable our demands may be, they conflict with the present con tlition of ufl'uirs, which enn only bo changed by constant agitation, cduca tion and continued united effort. I wish to state some oi too tilings wo may accomplish by our own personal cflbrt through an earnest and faithful confederation. WHAT IS TItUK CONFEDERATION? It is tho labor or tho money of indi viduals combined for mutuul profit mul advancement of all who unito in tho undertaking. There must bo tho same proportionate prollts to every man co-operating. Tho old Btory of tho monkey using tho cat's paw to draw out chesnuts from tho hot ashcH is n good illustration of co-operation us it is generally practiced. Tho iiiom key and tho cut certainly co-operated, but tho monkey got all the cliesuuta. Tho allianco wants tho truo confedera tion, wliero every man fares equitably in nil tho results. Tho alliance is a mighty power when it co-operates on anything. Let this power bo turned toward corporation btisineeu and build iU foundation on brick and mortar, and it will build wisely, mid bo able to stand tho btorms that will bo hurled Ktt!iist it, Tho fuel that the allianco a .

Wo givo the "middle man" fit; but tho grange, with its beautiful ritual and true and noble principles, has passed away from this suction, and the middle man 6till lives and flourishes B" bay tree. Had the grange built itt-elf up on the tolid foundations , of brick and mortar, it would have Mtr Mvod for years and been to-day the idol organization of the farmer. There ! was onco a mighty people in America i before the untutored Indian sought its I wild.-. There is no history of them, and no man knows whence they came: ! but the mounds they erected entomb , their relies and encloses their degree of civilization. When the alliance passes away, if it ever does, may it leave behind it such indeliblo works of progress as shall lead the future gener , ations to breath a bcnison over its sleeping ilust and praise its work and 1 labors. roitWAKD Tin: work.

The observer of the Oregon Weather Bureau, of Portland, Oregon, has is sued the bulletin for the week ending Saturday, Aug. 15, 1891, tho same be ing based upon roports received from 117 correspondents, which is as follows : WKSTKItN OUKOO.W Weather. A few showers occuried along the coast; in tho interior valleys tho mornings wcro cloudy, cool and damp from dow, the afternoons were warm ; tho maximum temperature ranging from 78 to 90 degrees. The nights have been warm, causing the daily mean temperature to be above tho average from 2 to -1 degrees a day. Crops. Threshing of fall wheat bus been in full operation. Tho berry is, as a rule, largo and plump and it is considered to bo extra good milling wheat. Portland prico this morning is 87 cents per bushel, which is about 10 cents per bushel more than was paid this time last year. Yields of from 2i to 43 biwhels per acre aro generally reported. Mr. W. II. Ooudy, of Hubbard, Marion county, threshed out 970 bushels of wheat fiom a field of 2.1 acres; this field has been in con tinual wheat cultivation for .If) years. The cool weather in tho mornings re tards ripening of spring grain and caues grain to Do rather tough for threshing until the sunshine becomes warmer. In Curry county i crops of alfalfa, blades about 22 inches long, havo been cut this year tip to July zain, without irrigation, uats aro heavy and a good crop. Serious dam ago is loured irom tho Hop louso. Peaches, corn and molons are fully nn average crop. Watermelons are now rijie in Josephine county. F.ASTKUN OltKflOK. outlier. No ruin is reported to havo fallen. Tho temperature has been about tho average ; the maximum temperature ranged from Sfi to 92 de grees, .there has boon more than tho nvorago amount of clouds, though the afternoons havo generally been cloud less. Frosts occurred in parts of Klamath couutv on the 9th. Crops, There is a serious hick of harvest hands in most sections. Heading and threshing aro in full pro gress, 'iiio wheat is turning out abovo even tho expectation of most farmers. Tho quality is cenorullv nbovu tho average. Prices to-day in Ponilloton for wheat aro G5 conts for bluo Htom and 0-1 cents for club, clear of tho sack ; many fnrmerH in this sec tion sold thejr wheat last year at from 02 to 60 conts per bushel. In Sher man and Morrow counties tho vicld is most satisfactory, nlso in parts of Was co cuuaiy. in union coumv Fomo heading was doo this jiast week, but it will bo in full operation next wcok. In Klamath county, which appears to bo a natural county for rye, there Is ryo 8 feet high and volunteer oats thut will yield nearly or quite GO bushels per acre, 'l hrough tho stock country a largo Jtuy crop was scoured and stock aro generally in prime condition.
