Tho problem for grangers, alliance men and all who favor third party and farmer's movements to consid er, Is this: Is a third party desirable? Ignatius Donnelly of Minnesota, when asked in Chicago tho other day what effect farmers' alliance would have on tho coming presiden tial campaign, Bald; "It will de pend largely on what Is done by the alliance convention to bo held in Cincinnati in May. If it decides to put an independent ticket in the field, It will complicate matters. I do not know whether a ticket will be nominated or not. We In Minne sota are very much In favor of Inde pendent action and our delegates will go Instructed for that end." As 1b well known the grange is a uou-politlcal organization. The grange of Oregon will meet this month and there is a strong move ment of tho grangers in some parts of the state to favor a third party. The alllaucc does not preteud to bo anything but a third party, a more skillful aud more effective mnchluo foronllsting tho farmers in a com mon political movement, and hold ing them together by n common political interest for common politi cal results. The state alliance of Ohio and some other states will oppose a third party national ticket. Tho Cincin nati convention may possess that superior wisdom aud not listen to tho demands of half-baked states men who exist In hopes that nation al lightning may strike them. They manipulate these third party con ventions in the expectation of acci dental greatness. They do not rely upon education of the people so much as upon accident. Thoy hope to trick themselves into prominence instead of ualnlnc tho coufidouco of the musses by earnestness and Intelligence. Third party movements are not oncouracinE of late years. Tho oven the brain of tho high ofllclals and making them act in n curious manner In their family relations.

Horaay next declare that Hostettcr's bitters la a burnt-sugar and cheap whiskey fraud, that our favorite brand of llvor pad Is not filled with electricity but saw dust, and that half the patont medicines aro as big humbugs as tho MIcrobo Killer. Then tho people would be reduced to tho beastly state of healthiness which animals enjoy without using any patent medicines at all.

Tho Dalles Tlmes-Mouutnlneer: Independent Journalism must bo distinguished from mugwump Jour nalism. If a uowspapor sees any thing to condemn in the party with which it nQlllatcs its duty to tho public Is to exposo the wrong aud loudly demand a reform. But this should bo done within tho party rauks. and not within tho lines of the enemy. A traitor Is always despicable, whether in peaco or war, or In society, politics, or morality because the name implies n breach of faith. Thoso papers which so nobly combatted machlno rule aud bo9slsm In tho repitbllcau pirty, aud never failed to advocato tho great basis principles of tho orgaulzutlou, aro ou titled to the highest commen dation; but thoso who deserted to tho enemy and poured their red-hot shot to thin tho ranks ot their friends and former allies merit noth ing short of everlasting execration. There may bo honest conversions, and In such Instances editors may chance their opinions on national greenback, union labor, prohibition ', questions us well as divines on rcll- tur- and other third party organizations have gone into rapid declines, almost as rapidly us organized. Where thesalvatlon Is coming In for any of these reforms at tho hands of u third party is what practi cal men cannot see. Tho success of thoalllanco has been phenomenal. It affords a tempting hope for tho ugitaioreof every description, and tho only risk It Incurs Is that of loidiutr ui) with too many, Includ ing their respectlves hobbles, Most men can seo llttlo hope of direct results from a third party, except as an educational force, Tho belief of the grange is, that a good well-informed grander Is the best member of any party. Tho goodcltlz&n is a valuable man In any party. Tho good citizen who Is at tho samo time a practical man, and not satisfied with mere adop tion of long platforms, bnt desirous, of actual results, will not hasten to join a now third party movement In Oregon, If ho reviews the net results of third party business so fur as heard from. Iutelllgbiit voters desirous of re forms can pursue one of two courses. Hold aloof as does tho gran go and cast a silent ballot In secret for tho men who best represent Us creed, or get in and take possession of the dominant narty and moke It useful and valuable to the people, as It Is useful and valuable to tho politicians at tho expense of tho taxpuyer. The latter course Is likely to provo tho most eflectlye that can be" pursued In Oregon In the light of past third party movements. AFTKJt TilU MICKOIIK, Blnco Col. Varney's great exploits In bringing tho euub of tho Horti cultural bourd to bear on tho fierce and untumable woolly aphis, thero has been no achievement equal to State Food Commissioner Baker getliug a bead on tho MIcrobo Killer. The MIcrobo Killer has been plying hut peaceful avocation In Salem and slaying countlens millions of thetM diabolical be lugs, when this ruthless official at Portland come out with an analysis of this microbe water, that will upct the plans of all the people who have been dealing vigorously with this fierce animal. Prof. Baker's aualyqla shows up that this patent medicine which is ultned nt microbes great and small U nothing but rainwater put up In stone Jugs, with about half a cent's worth of muriatic acid In each jug, aud tho whole unalysls Is published in such a way as to rather encourage the microbe In his deadly career, It officially paU the microbe ou the back and tolls hlro to go ahead with his nefarious busiuess, and not care ItadttU) for this patent medicine preparation, , Thl will cause great rejoicing in the camp f the microbes, who have bea unusually thick in this vicinity, supposing by some to have invaded gious doctrines, without moral pltudo belug atrributcd to either. But such conversions are rare, nnd hapnon only very occasionally. In journalism thero must bo a con science, or os nn Instrument of ad vancement, morally or politically, It Is not actuated by tho higher prlncl pies of right and duty; and tho peo ple, whom It leads, may be expected t o become vitiated and debased. In dependent journalism, that upholds tho right and condemns tho wrong m Its own party or scot, Is a grand power for good; but this can bo done more effectually by maintaining our anillHons and attempting to in crease the popularity of our friends, than by Joining tho enemy and laboring for his success and tho de feat of thoso whoso creed Is very similar to ours.
