Wo quote: The land grabber ia making hi« presence felt throughout Oregon and Waanington, and few are liw available tract« that ha hi s not “jumped»” “When I can read iny tit:« clear” appear« to be the burden of hi« «onf*, and timber and grazing «pots his objects of attack. We understand that one man.whose home is in thi« city, is making a living by traveling through the State and locating land for a crowd of Portland sharpers. Con siderable complaint is made by “ bona fide ” settlers of this unfair way of securing land:« aud sooner or later, it will have to come to a stop. We know of one man who recently ’• took up” IGO acres of timl>er land in Wash ington Territory, and got three friends to d«> likewise in his interest. Dow he intend to clear these G40 acres? Not at alL He has not even seen the land, nor does he ever ex pect to. He has secured it at the nominal purchase price of .*2 50 an acre, and expects bv simply holding it, to get for it ^5 an acre within a year. A hardworking farmer at Alkali, who has the injustice of this way of appropriating lands brought home to him, writes thus pointedly: “There are a good many land grabbers here whom he would like to se«, punished if possible. They make entries o«i all the choice spots with no expectation of settling, but want to sell their right to set tiers fot a high price. Some of them ar« agents for the loafers of Portland and othi pia< <•»,. who Dortr m e 1 he land, but hire Ito first year’s five acres ploughed, and do noth ing more but sell his claim, of whjoh the agent get« his commission.” Illegal grasp ing of this kind is driving away immigrants, who come here oxpecting to take up homes, but finding instead all the government land in th«» hands of idle speculators, who will not sell at the prices assured them before leaving (heir Eastern home». We must deal squarely with oar new-com ers, and rigorously with the land-grabbers if we expect to build up u great common wealth. An investigation of the methods adopted by many to get possession of larnl. would unearth, in some instances, downright frauds. The present system of disposing of public lands, is too loose, and mankind in general too little guided by conscience not to take advantage of it. tlites <>t tleiition, Albany ia to have a Erst National Bank with a capital atook of $«50,(MJQ.

His brow was clear, his eye beneath Flashed bright, and from between his teeth A voice like a silver clarion rung, In accents of a well-known tongue : "Go to Hod.ton's and buy a Mc Cormick Twine Binder !” In sorrowing homes, he saw the sight Of wasting forms and dying fright; And while without, th« sunlight shone, He uttered hold, in thunder tones : '"Goto Hodson's and buy you a McCormick or Champion Reap er or Mower !” My back is lame, the old woman said, “ And dreadful Is my aching head ; Sharp is the pain in my aching side.” In triumph, then, the youth replied: R eii “ Alas I the Osborn, Wood and Deering Have broken us down, instead of cheering !” 1 his was the farmer’s awful tuoan. The youth replied, in cheering tone : Go to Hodson's and buy you a McCormick Twine Binder, and be happy.” The youth at early eve was found Lying outstretched on the ground ; And, wrapped around him, clean and nice, Was that banner w th the sage alvice ; (ro to Hodson s to buy Stoves and Hardware, Tinware, II "agons or Agricu literal Im piemen ts. ’ ’ There, in th« twilight of that day, Sleeping yet beautiful, he lav, V. hile through the land was heard afar A voice as from a falling star : “Go to Hodson's to buy Stoves, Hardware, Bain II 'agons and all kinds of Farm Implem'ts.” For further particulars of what the youth did sav And for extras for all kinds of Fann Ma chinery, Call at their Store, in Masonic Hall Building, The old farmer wailed : “ my aching breast!” Quoth the youth: “ buy a S»lky-Plow.
