The census recount gives Balem a popu lation of 10,407, as against 7132 an nounced by tho tirst enumeration, and afterwards corrected to fcViOfl. The census department officials some petty Washington flunkies no doubt, now declare that they will apply the severest tests to prove that Salem and Portland have Becured a padded enumeration upon recount. All this savors of disgruntled impe rial snobbery. First the govern ment census is confessedly so far short that the census department orders a recount. That recount is conducted by a special census agent, who comes to Oregon and abides a month. The second census is made under his special direction. This second census proves the tirst u lie. Now, the gentlemen proveu woeful ly inefficient propose to invoke the sharp practice of red-tape technical ities to escape tho just censure of the aroused public sentiment of the whole nation which is demand lug a recount of all Oregon. The red ribbon technicalists are alarmed for their reputations, nnd by petty threats and lllliputian bulldozing they assume to keep Oregon out of her just rights which, is a correct count of the whole state, and noth ing more. Balem and Portland are not afraid of a recount. They have everything to gain by a recount. Their schools and colleges and new arrivals alone will swell a third census far beyond tho results reachea in the second, and the cose of the red-tape strate gists at Washington would be made only the worse. The reputation of Hon. Robt. P. Porter and his millions has run upon a rock In this Oregon's census. It looks as tho' the gentleman knew nothing of the energy and go-ahead spirit of the section they have to deal with. He is evidently tryiug to prove that his department Is not in the bauds of a statistician. He has yet to demonstrate that he Is in all respects at least, such u man as General Walker, or statistician Dodge. If he were not sick abed the people of Oregou would talk in another tone to Mr. Porter. THE DUTY OF Olllt SINGERS. Singers have their public duties as well as nuwspaper workers. There is uo higher or nobler ta9k allotted to anyone in any walk in life than that of dellghtiug the public ear and elevating the public taste by render ing It good vocal mumc. Scarcely anyone or in any walk of life but owes some public duty. We have before adverted to the moral benefits and the spiritual uplifting of the masses galued from public singing uud especially from chorus work. The demonstration of tho popularity and high quality of Sa lem vocalists was shown at our lost Fourth of July celebration. The reorganization of the Salem philharmonic society is deserving of the encouragement of everyone gifted In vocal music. A musical festival on a grand scale could bo or ganized at Salem next summer that would draw thousands of people to our city. There is uo raoro popular, laudable or ennobling influence to be exerted on the masses of htimuu- ity than our national tuuslo rendered in song. Let the slugers orgaulze for a great musical future for our city. "TUK JOUUmi." ANIJ TI1K AURI- CULTURAL COLLEGE. The Corvullls Times takes tho Journal to task about a descriptive article on tho Oregon Agricultural college und Its work. The article re ferred to wus prepared by the editor of the Journal who spent part of two days visiting the ctillege ami groundH, and took tho liberty to write his Impressions for his own paper. He did uot go (here to so licit business of thu college, nor to get a paid write-up of the city, nor even to collect subscriptions for this pajier. As he wuscoraluir away an adver tisement was handed him to be In serted in the Wkkki.v Journal. It wus uot solicited and It was dis tinctly stated by the Journal edl tor that he had uot come upon uuy business adveuture, but that us a citizen he wished to familiarize him self with a public institution In which every citizen husau Interest. We me thus explicit hecuuso we wish to free our reader's mind from any suspicion of uuslness bias. We did not enter Into the contro versy between some of I he profes sor, or officials, or citlwus, because we did not consider that we were well enough posted as to that. We are not averse to iv right, and the iHWMiuiiuT records of IoWit will I0W wt wo evur fikva t0 uite r ' "vwnu for the Iwpwveownt of te Institution. We have no doubt many and great improvements could be made at tho O. A. C It would be a puny two year old Institution if there could not be changes and betterments in duced. We must reiterate that our write- up of the institution was intended to be helpful rather than critical. It was intended as an effort to set forth the advantages of the school and to incline citizens to send their sons and daughters. If we sinned In this it was thro' no evil intent. We must confess wo can see little utility in objecting to men because thy are Episcopalians, or English men, or Democrats, rr whatever else of those extraneous qualities hat attach not to their ability us teachers or men pf science. We know none of them us churchmen or as foreigners. We presume them to be gentlemen and American citi zens. We could forgive the xtuto or the executive committee for employ ing the most eminent specialist in the world in any department as a professor up there, and close our eyes to his religion, politics, or even citizenship. We want the O. A. C. to have the best educators money can employ, regardless of their non essentials. We have no desire to shield any professor in the iwhool. We believe in compelling each of those gentle men to stand upon bis merits with out being shown any favor. We believe iu the management displac ing any of them so fast as a better man can be secured. We believe no professor should be retained for a day after he c ewes to arouse enthu siasm for his work, or after ke has ceased to grow iu his work. On the oiher band we cannot bring our selves to indulge criticism that we believe can ouly be hurtful to the general interest of the school and accomplish no reform at present. WHICH 13 IN TUB KIGIIT t The Capital Journal (Salem) makes this statement, viz: The Oregon Ian loves to debate problems. Will the Oregon iun tell its readers why property and earn ings of small farmers, householders and laborers have decreased all over the United States, while millionaires have multiplied? Wouldn't it be well first to ascer tain whether it is true that "prop erty and earnings of small farmers, householders and laborers have de creased all over the Uulted States?'' Of course, it Is not true. The con dition of labor, not only in the Uni ted States, but the world over, never was so good as it Is to-day. Men aud women whose labor is their cap ital never before were ahle to obtain by their labor so many of the com forts and luxuries of life as tbey are obtalniug to-day; and this Is espec ially true in the Uulted States. Working people, including farmers they who pursue the ways of In dustry, economy and sobriety are constantly increasing their property. Oregoniau, Sep. 22. We copy the above part of the leading editorial in thu leading North Pacific coast paper. Readers of the Oregoniau did not suppose th-H it would so squarely and dogmatically deny the state ment of the Journal, without at least bringing toiae facts to sustain its denial. We would reprint Its entire editorial, but it consists only of assertions along the Hue of, and In keeplug with, the Oregonlan's theories, but not of the facts in the cose. Tho facts will go far to prove a great depression iu the prosperity of small farmers, aud householders und laborers, and a correspondent appreciation of the plutocratic in terests aud multiplication of mil lionaires. This condition alarms the tbiukersaud writers of the nation aud tbousuuds of newspapers nnd review articles have appeared, set ting It forth. The agricultural de pression is recognized iu politics, In legislation and In the national movements for a farmers' organiza tion, inhere Is a village in the ua- tlon, unless it be iu some uewly ad mitted vttate, where the irou grip of a releutlesB depression Is uot felt it has uot been heard of. It Is the problem of tiie day. We ueed uot go into the details of the phenomeiiul depression existing among the farmers of New England. A copy of the New Hampshire Mirror and Farmer will tatiwfy uuy one thut thousaudsot hinull, thrilty, economical and wilier furuiers, all of the best New Euglaud stock, are forced to utmost give away their furnis. While It Is uot so bud In the Central West, we could multiply eyldences of tills deprtMslou from every stute iu the Union, Tltla de pression extends to the ranks of luborlug and business men, The Furuiers' Alliance Is u movement Iu thil Interest of labor und la not light ing the business men, who as a rule feu) tho depression almost as keenly as the farmers, Does tho Oregonian Imagine that the farmers nrguuiiattonsuro formed to fight the business men of (he country? They ure orguuUed n nlnt tho nionoimlifs, trusts, com bines, pools uud unfair associations, which take the cream of the labor er'e and producer's earnings nnd proflU to swell the Income of the plutocrat, Does the Oregonian pretend that the el a tens wbleb. (he Journal alleges are suffering de pression are universally more pros perous than the monopolies and trusts? It would not be guilty of that degree of superficial optimism. Two facts remain. The trust is a two-edged sword, cutting into earn ings of producer and consumer. Second, depression exists. It can be proven in a thousand ways, tho' the Oregoniau assert tho contrary, never so strongly. As an instance, take tho cattle trade: It is well known that a trust has been robbing the farmers of the whole nation since years by depressing the prices of live cattle. William T. Hunter, aa extensive cnttle raiser, has sent a circular to thousands of interested parties calling upon them to join in forming an association which will protect cattlemen against the exist ing trust, regulate the sending of cattle to market, aud advance mon ey to those needing it. Unless such a combination is effected, Mr. Hun ter says In his circular, "in a very short time we will find ourselves without money, without cattle and without homes." The Big Four combine in getting control of the retail meat markets in nearly all the large cities aud even the country towns. In the mean time labor and agriculture are depressed while the millionaires flourish. The Oregon ian will not go back on Cbauncey Depew. Even he admits a general agricultural depression. In a speech Sept. 10, at the New York state fair he said: The first act of the farmer should be to Intelligently organize. Iu the present condition of the world or ganization is u necessity of existence. Capital orgauizis incorporations; la bor organizes in trades unious and manufacturers orgaulze for protec tion. The Farmers alone have fail ed to unite in auyetHdeutand prac sical way. In conclusion, Depew tuid that, in his judgment, we are uear the bottom of the grave of agri cultural depression, and will soon begin to climb up the other side. It is consoling to heur from the lips of this prince of stall-fed mil lionaire monopolists that "we are near the bottom of the grave of agri cultural depression," When we get to the bottom there will perhaps graciously be permitted a resurrec tion. The resurrection may alreody have begun. We trust the Oregon Ian can see some depression where one of its great lights can see so much. We are aware that the Oregonian will not agree with us as to the causes for this existing general de pression of persons of small and moderateearningsand property. It avoids investigation of causes by denying that the depression exists. It would be slow to inform its read ers that while corporation manageia tax the public for uli the traffic will bear, railroad employes receive ouly one-third, or a smaller percentage of the total earnings of their employers than the wage-workers in other oc cupations; the farmer on the other hand must sell 'bis products iu the open competitive market, pay one half of the product of his farm for its cultivation, and then be clipped both ways by every trust and com bine that can be organized. The state of Oregon is very jealous of the right to levy a state, county or school tax, but it allows the Stand ard Oil Co., or a few railroad mana geas to meet in Portland und levy an extra tax of one, three, or eveu five million dollars upon the people of Oregou without giving them any thing in return. Never Disappointed. That Is a happy condition of life to be in, aud the enterprise and honesty of the men you deal with goes fur to establish it. It Is the small details of life and expenditure that worries us with disappointments a good deal more than the money it costs. This Is all happily avoided so far as clothing the person is concerned if you buy where quulity, your money 'h worth and newest styles are looked ufter for you us H Is at John, son, Boot buy & Co.'s clothing em porlum at Salem. . 1 1 Eveulng Shorthand Class.
