Boston and thc Nrelhodists.

1t will not probably greatly concern
the Methodists Of the United States
to know that The Boston Herald
thinks of them. That paper has,
however, decided opinions about
them and expressed the same freely
on the occasion of the centenary of
Methodism in New England not
long ago.
The Hearld says the Methodists
we're "a rough set Of people fifty
years ago." though in the half cen
fury that has interviewed New Eng
land Methodists have been near
enough to Boston to get some Of the
rotghness rubbed off them, and have
even secured in the Herald's judg-
ment a sort OF polish by initiating
from Boston. They set themselves
to educate the young Methodists,
and by patterning after the Puritan
academy that emanated from Boston
many years ago they have really sue
ceeded in spreading a very tolerable
education among their young people.
But it has been religious educa
ton along narrow lines, aud one
that has put the church out of touch
with other religious bodies. I his
is the greatest fault The Herald
tinds with the Methodists of the
present. 1t cropped out IN their
centennial rejoicings. All was for
the glory of the Methodist church
and that only, as if there were no
other road to heaven than through
its portals. 1t is, in short, with
them like the chorus of one OF their
own ancient camp meeting songs:
I've got Methodist religion
The narrowness of range taken by
nearly all the speakers at the cente-
nary, except perhaps Bishop War
rem, both surprised aud grieved the
religious editor of The Herald.
"This narrowness is indeed notable
on every occasion when Methodists
come together to consult about
the interest of the kingdom of God"
They rarely go beyond the line Of
insularitY in any work, however
great, that they undertake. Is it
wise, asks the writer, thus to ignore
other religious bodies that are also
engaged in saving the world?

THE END OF THE DREAM.

The end of the dream of Home rule in
Ireland has come. The party fatally
divided against itself can find no COM
mon ground on which to meet, and the
hope of reconciliation is vain indeed.
ParnelPs weakness morally has blasted
his hopes, his reputation, and his party.
With victory within his grasp, his i'm
morality found him out, and the bed of
love became the couch of political death.
1t was bad enough that Parnell should
fall shorne of his strength, like Sampson
of old by a woman; but it is a national
misfortune that in his blind. rage he
pulled down the temple of his friends,
and done them to the death. The
Home rule question is devoid of interest
except to awaken feeling of profound
pity, and of supreme disgust, at the
spectacle of these late friends, fighting
and destroying one another like a pack
of famished wolves. Parnell is dead
politically and his party lies dead beside
him. He presents the same spectacle as
some love sick and jealous fool, who
murders his sweetheart, or wife and
children, and then blows his own brains
out.

i SPLENDID GRAPE COUNTRY.

The Seufert brothers have demon
strated that the foothills near The Dalles
are splendidly adapted to the grape cul-
ture. Their fruit ranch near town would
be credit to the best portion of Califor-
MIA, and their grapes compare favorably
with anything that state can produce.
The writer can remember trip through
the Russian river valley in California, by
where Santa Rosa and Healdsburg now
stand. The hills were covered with
shrub oak and chapparel, and land could
be bought for government price. 1t was
considered worthless, and at that time
was for practical purposes valueless.
Five years ago another visit was made
through that same section, the chapparel
and shrub oak were gone and in their
places were long rows of grape vines,
yielding three, four and as high as six
tons to the acre, and the land was held
at from five hundred to seven hundred
dollars. Its value had been discovered,
its possibilities changed into facts, and
the contemned chapparel lands, the dry
foothills became the most valuable lands
in the state. The same thing can be
done here for we are similarly situated.
We have a magnificent market for table
grapes, and it has been amply demon
strated not only by the Seufert brothers
but by others that we can produce as fine
fruit as grows any where, and in un-
limited quantities. 1t is only question
of time until vineyards are extensive and
numerous, and the men who first get
their vines out, will be the ones who
soonest have a healthy bank account.

SHALL THE La Ws BE PUBLLsHEDy

The question of publishing the laws as
made by the legislature is being agitated,
and is generally indorsed by the news
papers, though there are of course some
dissenters. 1t has been estimated that
it would cost $4,000, supposing fifty col
umns would hold the entire matter, the
estimate allowing 50 per col
umn. We are inclined to think the cost
would be considerably over that sum.
Two dollars per column of solid matter
would not more than pay for the COM
position, and while it is probable that
most of the papers would be willing to
publish the laws for about the cost, it
could hardly be expected of them that
they should do so at loss. If the work
could be done for an average of
S. per column it would be cheap,
but would cost then nearer 500 900 than
$4,000. Besides this, it is fact that in
ninety-nine cases out of a hundred, a
person affected by the laws would seek
the services ofan attorney, ii not at once,

THERE IS ROOM ENOUGH FOR
EVERYBODY.

We wish to reiterate the statement
made i'll our salutatory, that this paper
has ignored the question of politics, for
the reason that we believe it can be
OF more benefit to the people of this sec
ton by devoting all of its space to mat
ters of news, and to local affairs. To
this end we desire to say that its col
umns are open at all times for the dis
cussion of local matters, and especially
such subjects as more particularly con-
Germ the farmers. The oranges are es-
pecially invited to send us such matter
as they desire published and we will at
all times gladly give them space. and
the farmers generally, whether belong
ing to the grange or not, will find room
in our columns for any meritorious arti-
Gle. Besides this we would like from
every neighborhood the local happen
ings, made as they necessarily must be,
if all find room, brief and to the point.
