What kind of blarney, John, was it that you were doling out to Tillamookers ? As the Blump in the price of cheese have knocked the bot tom out of the market will this have the effect of knocking the high price out of land ? It will surely do so, for the intrinsic value of a dairy farm can only be guaged by the amount of money that can be made from it. The aim of the free trade party is to reduce the price of every thing that is raised on the farm, and it is sure to reduce the price of land especially lutici inflated in valuation by reni estate sharks. Bro. Blalock is the J lemocratic candidate for joint represent!! live, and he surprises his many friends by announcing in his published platform “I believe in the prohibiting of the manu facture and sale of intoxicating liquors, only for medical and chemical purposes.’’ Did the printer have a jag on mid .vnnt- ed to play a practical joke on the rev. gentleman, or does the sentence mean what it anya.tlint Bro. Blalock would only prohi bit the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquors only for medicnl and chemical purposes. Say, Bro., a Democrat can't ex pect to land the “dry” vote with a “wet” platform.

The question of reform was not advance by this or any other spectacular per formance of a spasmodic char acter, for the whole escapade was, in our judgment, a scheme to advertise the governor, with Portland. 3o.
