The position of the Democratic State
convention on the question OF honest
money and specie paper took all OBJ
servers 10y surprise and was "A credit 10
the party and the State. Michigan
seems 10 be the one State SO far ia
which the opposition does not give
away itself and it's only traditional
priuciple which Is directly at issue.
This fact will make the opposition in
this State and out Of tune with its
nsighbors of other western States but
Il will be "a handsome thing for the po-
litical morals Of Michigan that both
parties upold that system Of finance on
which the fathers founded the republic
and which is the one approved by the
experience of civilized countries. The
standing Of this State will be enhanced
in every part Of the country and the
world by the course OF our two State
political conventions. The action Of
the Lansing convention was one more

A Word To the Farmers,

There is class OF men ia the conn
try who call themselves workingmen
but who really are not much inclined
To work unless they are permitted to
prescribe their own terms. They have
inaugurated war upon labor saving
machinery and upon convict labor,
having conceived the idea that 10y de-
stroying the one and prohibiting the
other they can make labor abundant
and command an increase in wages.
They are being organized in lodges,
under forms and ceremonies devised
and distributed by Brick Pomeroy,
and they are receiving aid and encour-
sgement from part Of the Democratic
press. In some sections where they
have received sufficient encouragement
they have gose into the fields and de-
strOyed labor saving machinery. In
certain localities throughout the West
where they had destroyed reapers, the
supply Of farm labor is not equsl to the
demand. They demand that the farm
or shall 90 back 10 the habits Of our
fathers and reap the grain with the
sickle aud cradle. They demand that
all the prisoners in the -penitentiaries
shall be kept idle at the expense OF the
government, because they. like the
reapers, are reducing the demand for
laborers. With these anti-machinery.
lnti-convict-labor agitators the dema.
gogues have conceived the idea that
they can control aud govern this coun-
try. IL is the demagogue encouraging

Cong ess is again in session,
and if it only gets on the right
track il can accomplish a large
amount of valuable work. It
should not be lead astray by the
clamor of a partisan press, and
30 fritter away its time with dead
issues or protitiess sectional quar-
rels. The monetary question is
fast settling itself and should not
be made an excuse for creating
party discussions. Investigation
into the abuses which have been
unearthed in all parts of the I'm
ion, and moi a few of them either,
together with the deyislng of ad>
eqnate means OF removing them,
should constitute the principal II
not the sole business of Congress
for the session which has jrst
commenced.

THE NEXT STATE FAIR.

To E. NJ. Waite, ESQ, Secre-
tary, we are indebted for the an
nual report of the Oregon State
Agricultural Society. From it We
learn the following concerning
The last State Far aud the one

Tha total receipts of the Fair
for 1876 were $E.111 so; expep-
ses, including prerlium, S11,947
SO; profits, $751; "a. The re-
ceipts tor 1877 wsre $15, ,468 "A;
expenses $12,875 IA. The in-
deh,edness of the society in Oc
tober, 1879 will be $21, ,2S7 so.
Nj. Wilkins, John +. Miller
and E. NJ. Waite, were elected
the Executive Committee.
It was resolved that the Fair OF
1879, begin on Wednesday of "a
gwen week, in said year, and end
on Tuesday of the week follows
ing; The time to be fixed 10y the
Executive committee in June,
1879.
Resolued, That but three licen-
ses for the sale OF lager beer shall
be granted for the Fair OF 1879,
and that the booths for the sales
above mentioned shall be rented
as auction with their lager beer
license.
1t was resolved in considera-
ton o, the condition of the fnan-
ces that for the annual Fair ol
1879 the season tickets for fe'
males OF Is years aud over shall

A friend writes us TO TIE effect
that we ought to be more decid-
ed, and not SO independent, but
Democratic or Republican. Our
friend is mistaken. By being in-
dependent OF both parties there
is no one to prevent us from
pointing out an official rogue
wherever we may ind him, or
calling him by his proper name.
And then there is no one either
to say we shall not support the
people whenever they may make
a move for their own protection
and prevent an increase of taxa
ton. We are perfectly, satisfied
with our course, and while We
cannot please our friend, and are
sorry we do not think as he
does, we find consolation ia edo-
ing that which our conscience
urges US is right.

Farmers should Thin k.

! There ls no business when af>
ORC greater scope tor thought, or
which Is s/more provocative OF re-
flection, than farming. The care
tul farmer must be daily meeing
with subjects which challenge
thought and require he most pro-
found study. Farmers ought to
be the most thoughtful people in
the country. The balancing of
cause aud effect in a business
wherein a thousand causes are op>
Grating demands more thought
and more philosophical mind
than any other business whatever.
1t is possible for farmers to get
into the ruts, and go in the beaten
track year after year, without
thought; but such farmers are not
successful, aud each year are be-
coming less SO. Whenever a
farmer gets out of the ruts-
ceases to do things because it has
always been the practice he ne
cessarily has to think. 1t Is pref
ty safe to say that such farmers
will be sure to want all the agri>
cultural banks and papers they
can get. And aa thinking, men
ultimately must always supplant
those who do not think, the
problem how farming is to be
made successful and the farmer
more honored, will be settled, as
80 many like problems lave been
by the Darwiniau law-''the sur
vival OF the fttest.

We hear from Salem that the
Investigating committee appoint
ed by the last Legislature has
found mnch to condemn N the
conduct of the Democratic
administration for the past
eighr Years. The facts so
far developed lead to the ques-
ton, not who is guilty. but whom
is innocent. O1r information IS
to the effect, that none are inno-
cent, and that even Senator Gro
ver's conduct will be criticized,
while Governor. The detaica.
flons. embezzlements and mis-
management on the part of the
State officials, it Is predicted,
when summed up, will show a
squanderlng of public funds con-
trary to honesty and law, amount
ing to nearly, if not quite, the
large sum of 800, 900.
We Go not propose to censure
any one, however, until the re-
port of the committee is given to
the public. We would rather
wait until the whole truth is
known. In the meantime, we

allowed to escape.
