Prior to that year more than half our peoplo wero farmers and they owned moie than half the wealth; and when they diminished so as to ho half the people they still owned hulf the wealth. To-day the larmers do not own the Mime propor tion of property. As this decline was foreseen und predicted as the Inevitable effect of a cause that be gan to operate, why Indulge in speculations as to that cause ? "Why say it is caused by ignorance when so much has been douo toenllghten? Extravagauco is tho cause a kind of enforced extravagance. Lot us givo an instanco or two. It cosw io-day more for school books twenty dollars to one. And yet the old cabin school houso turned out about as good scholars as do the uplen did temples of to-day. In old times nostaso cos some twenty live cents per letter and a family would receive not more than half a dozen letters per year. The samo Jilud of family, to-day; will be receiving several hundred letters in tho same lime. A small adair this, hut it is peculiary illustrative. In ithoold time if a farmer's family took a journey tho team was hitch ed up, food propared and a Jive days jaunt would cost hardly two dollars. Now, annually tho trip is by rail to somo grand exposition, one or moi'o liundrcilJiiuMesaway. Fora mere hun dred mlhntdp the cost will be, for a a ordinary family, not leus than twen tydollurtiifor railway fare. This for one short trip of one hundred miles, wheioas thojprobability is that there will bo several excursions at louder distances, Last fall thousands, of loorfamllu)Hinortgag"d their homes or their teams to raise money enough to carry them to Columbus, Ohio!! -.One trip only serves to create a .craving to go again as one visit leads do inuumerahlo others.

IJIG MEN VS. COMMON FOIK. Your big man can't get ahead of thecommonerfolk in social matters, try he ever bo hard. When tho big ones in the earlier times resorted to using the left hand thumb and An ger to Hit victuals tohis mouth, tho little fellows soon followed him. Sticks 'were then used', 'then 'knives and forks, then "society" resorted to using the fork exclusively. This was difllcult.but still " we got thcro just tho Bume," we little ones. So with all other customs, nearly. Titles, such as Sir, Muster and Esq. could not long remain the sole'pos pession of tho rich. Even military distinction and eminence, is seized by the ;coinmon fellow of tho civil service mid lie who saws your wood generally may rejoice as a Colonel or Captain. As rapidly as the up per ten get rid of old ways, no long er exclusively theirs, and hit on new ones the lower millions are close after them. Even the butcher and baker In some parts use a kind of livery for their servants. The follow who hires a second hand cart requires that his driver shall have a plume in his hat and stripes on his pants.

THE GOVERNOR AND TIIE 0REG0.N1AN. In an editorial in tho Oregonlan of the 21st inst., under'thbdrtptlon' ot "Another Point'oY iLtitt',",0c5flrH tM following' The" fe6Vbr'nr;"m6Vi over, thinks tflatkltfcenrrtfWlllam eUe University iks" dsrnblifiUe'dni school of medicine in PortJa'nd"'itl is 'neither just nor politic' f6r 'the State university 'to establish a rival school.' But is a denominational institution to have a privilege" that is denied to an institution of the state?" ' This last sentence of the two quotcdj Is utterly a non seqtflt'ur, and distinctly dodges the question which the governor raises. He had just discussed the question of the legality of locating branch schools of the State university at Portland, and had passed to another question totally distinct. Read in full it re veals at once tho evasion of tho Ore gonlan's reply. Tho governor says : "It is suggested in tho report (mean ing the report of the president of the board of regents of the State university), that the state should provide funds for the support of a fechool of medicine in Portland. There is now in that city a college df medicine built by tho generosity of private individuals at a cost of $25,000, and it Would not bo -either just or politic for the state to estab lish a rival school in opposition thereto in a city hardly largeenough to give good Bupport to one such in stitution." Now there either 'is or is not a demand for two medical col leges in Portland, but it may safely be affirmed that not two intelligent physicians in the state would assert that there is such demand, and many incline to believe that the time is hardly ripe for one'. Gov ernor Pennoyer simply calls atten tion to certain facts ; that a medical college is already in successful opera tion with a handsome property, the generous gift of public spirited citi zens, In a community so limited that another is entirely uncalled tor, and declares that under such circum stances it is 'neither just nor politic' for the state to waste -public funds by attempting to sustain another. And the one answer the Oregonlan can give is : 'Is a denominational institution to have a privilege tliat 'is' denied to an institution of the state?' Nonsense J Besides, the term "denominational" is apparent ly dragged in to give the impression that tho aim and scope of tho instI- tution is narrowed and debased by that circumstance. Denomina tional, forsooth ! Is tho horse that Bishop Morris may happen to drive denominational because the good bishop happens to be an Episcopa lian ? or is the horse of different fibre because of the denominational bias of its owner? Tho medical de partment of Willamette University rejoices in an honorable history run ning through nearly a quarter of a century, and lu a present prosperity exceeding till its past. Tho high quality of its work is Indicated by tho success of its alumni scattered all over the North Pacific coast. It alms solely at the Inculcation of a broad and sound medical learning to bo united in tho student with a sound moral character. A denomi national spirit has never entered its hall except when foolishly brought there by those hostile totho denomi nation in ultimate control. It asks oio subsidy from tho state and needs none. It is tho child of ; benevo lent public spirit, ami its friends be lieve that such public spirit and such .private bcvevolont enterprise aro so freighted with blessing to tho com monwealth that tho state may well pause to consider whether the recent utterance of Governor Pennoyer as hcxein quoted, was not the utterance of tiuith and wisdom Alpha.
