REFORM JOURNAL.
Tlie ambitiou of certain alleged
journalists is to be recognized as
spokesmen of tho Alliance, and to
have their papers considered organ
of the farmer's movement. This do
sire is so great as to create hostility
and the Reform Journal and Wood-
bum Independent are declaring
there is "a fight at tho start." A two-
column mniked article in the farmer
paper tries to convict the latter of
unwise policy, aud declares in heat
ed werds:
"By tho eternal, this is a mighty
devilish piece of business. The al
li'iuce must slart right, iu tho hands
of old aud tried reformers, or not at
all."
If the Reform movement gets no
further thau tho "Reform Journal"
and its crowd of pets have ever been
able to push it, suffice to say, it will
remain tho political laughing-stock
of Oregon. If that is tho crowd that
has it in charge the old-line politic
ians will find it an easy animal to
corral.
The "Reform Journal" then
launches into tho Woodburu Inde
pendent aud declares:
"Notwithstanding McMahon has
been a professed reformer iu tho way
of fighting Sheriff Croisan and Clerk
Dubcock. of Marion couuty; and also
pitched into the saloon element, he
turns around and makes an open
fight against Mr. Robertson, onoof
the oldest aud best reformers In
Oregon."
All this is refreshing. The plan
seems to be to put tho holy alliance
elephant iu the hands of careful
groomers, torm a circle of Simon
pure reform bashaws about tho alli
ance, aud allow no worshippers but
such as the priests of the temple rec
ognize. Mr. McGlll would officiate as au
imported Kansas pope, whose nuncio
no one shall join the alliance church,
or partake of communion with the
alliance crowd. We suggest McGlll
furnish a tag aud that none bo al
lowed to join alliauces unless first
calling ou tho only true reformer,
receiving his baptism aud instruc
tions. All this must appear very laugh
able to persons intending seiinusly
to assist the farmers' aud industrial
movement. It must appear to them
that tho Impending political revolu
tion will not amount to much if it de
pends upon any individual. It
must be greater than McGlll or any
"Mc," John, or any other fellow, or
when spread over tho wholo state it
will be a mighty thin affair.
For tho information of all persons,
some of whom may bo led to con
found this paper with any of these
alleged "reform" Journals, we wish
to say that this Journal will never
becomo tho organ of any class, po
litical or factional movement of any
kind. Its proprietors are republi
cans but not partisans for revenue.
It does not believe iu the antiquated
fashion of becoming au organ for
any purpose but good results for the
people. This Journal will be en
deavoring to do what It considers
right for the masses when tho al
leged organs will have gone tho way
of all such. All interested iu au im
proved order of government for the
people must have recognized before
tills that nuy paper that Jb labeled
organ of any description, or wears a
collar of any party,has but a limited
scope of Influence.
A DEMOCRATIC LLGIbLATURE.
There Is no stronger democratic
state government thau that of
Missouri. It Is democratic to the
core, if mere is any merit in that.
It lost about $400,000 last year by a
drinking, poker-playing stato treas
urer. It has been cursed by ono of
the worst legislaturts that ever as
sembled. The corrupt lobby of tho
corporations have completely cap
tured it, and at the close put all the
people's bills to tho foot of the
calendar. A freight rute bill was
put last on the list, absolutely out of
reach.
Rep. Folger in a speech the other
day said: "Are wo going to sit here
like dumb cattle, and bo subject to
the lobby around here? I have sat
here in my seat, Mr. Speaker, and
witnessed scenes that area disgrace
to the house. I have seen some of
the most disgraceful scenes ln this
house ever enacted luxa general as
sembly. I have seen the lobby so
crowded that u member could not
pass without having the buttons
torn ofl'liis coat. I want to see the
lobbyists driven from the hall and
the doors closed against them."
If tho St. Louis Republican spare
any time from its labors for reform
In the republican legislature of
Illinois, here Is Its opportunity.
The appropriations have run up to
17,780,070.
Nearly all the people' bills were
smothered aud tuxei will be higher
than ever.

HULI.KSS 1IARLEY.
Tho problem of providing n oheap
and eflectlvo grain for fattoning
hogs iu a region that Is not naturally
u com country Is a serious problem
of agriculture. At present hogs are
fattened In tho Willamltto valley
principally on wheat. It makes
good pork, lays on tho fat rapidly,
hogs eat it freely, aud when pork is
fattened on wheat It Is heavy with
lard pioduct. Wheat pork is not
light and spongy, but yields lard in
adyauce of any other yet produced
in this valley. It will not be easy
to get a substitute for wheat as a
hog-fntlenlug material. Common
brewer's barley will not do. It has
been tried ground, cooked and mix
ed with other grains raw. Hogs
canuot bo Induced to eat euough
to fatten rapidly. It is a sharp
pointed grain and uot rich euough
In fatteulug product to be profitable
Tho problem is to get hogs to eat
euough to fatten rapidly. The
only graiu that approaches wheat
is what is termed hulless barley.
Some attontion has been paid to
this grain In this valley. A light
colored vatlety has been successfully
nroduced hero. The farm editor of
tho Journal has been investigat
ing tho subject, and finds that W.
P. Murphy, of South Salem. Mr.
Blair Forward, of Waldo hills, and
Mr. Clark Hawley, of Salem prairie,
have raised tho whlto hulless barloy
for several years. Mr. Murphy con
siders it a very firm excelleut feed.
Cut for hay, horses do better than
on timothy, as it has blades from
tho ground up, aud tho heads will
bo nearly ripo when tho body of the
plunt Is still green, and henco tho
fodder becomes very nutritious.
About 35 bushels to tho acre Is all
that It will go, It has a round
dumpy head llko club wheat. Mr.
Murphy considers tho white hulless
burley as superior to wheat for hog
feed. Ground coarse it makes good
mush meal and nutritious bread.
There is also a hluo hulless barley
raised In North Dakota mid Mani
toba. The Journal has had ship
ped In enough of this latter to sow
two acres aud will test It. In North
Dakota it has provon a great success.
It went as high as 25 to 35 bushels
to the aero there last year when
wheat produced from 1 to 5 bushels.
It has made a record there of from
40 to 00 bushels to the aero aud has
gone into uso in several counties,
Tho Dakota oxperimont station is
said to have tested its tuttenlug
quality and proven them to bo 2 per
cent greater than of corn. If it will
yield so much moro than wheat and
lutton better or as well as corn, it
will prove a great desideratum for
this region. We have Bent for tho
official report of tho Dakota evpcrl
ment station aud shall publish it
when received. Tho bluo hulless
barlovia a fine looking grain, of
brownish blue-gray cast, about as
lanro as medium sized wheat, about
as hard in kernel, without any hull,
rich In gluten and having no barley
taste. It will bo sown by Mr. Thos.
Bruce of thlB city about April 10th
on soino of his choice South Salem
land and carefully harvested. Its
fattening qualities as compared with
wheut will bo thoroughly tested and
tho results made known.
IMPORTANCE OK THE OAT CHOI.
Oata nro a grain more widely culti
vated than any other, and one
which will succeed under condi
tions that would bo Impossible for
wheat, barloy or corn. In both
valuo and acreago this crop stood
third in tho list of cereals Iu this
country. Last year tho oat crop
was noor ovor a largo extent of
country, and the high prico of this
grain shows how difficult it is to fill
Its place. As tho crop usually brings
as much, often more, per pound, as
wheal, It will pay equally well to
raise for market. Seed outs will bo
high this spring aud it is Important
to put tho crop in under the best
conditions to insure success,
Happy IIoonItTH.
