is the mingled soul of wheat, corn
and rye In it you will find the
sunshine and the shadow that
chased each other DER the billowy
fields, the breath Of June, the
carol of the lark, the dews OF
night, the wealth of summers and
autumn's rich content, all golden
with imprisoned light. Drink it
and you will hear the voices OF
men and maidens singing the
:sHarvest Home," mingled with
the laughter of children. Drink
it and you will feel within your

dreaming tawny dusks of many
perfect days. For twelve years
this liquid joy has been within
the happy slaves of oak, longing
to touch the lips of man"

That paper is somewhat peevish
from the stroke, and complains
that the GAZETTE, having dis
covered that the silver cause is
dead, inhumanly persists in dis
turbing the corpse. 1t is thus
that noble actions are often mis-
construed. The GAZETTE has
simply called upon the friends o.
the lost cause to decently bury
the poor inanimate body. It

and when respectfully inferred
will be discreetly forgotten.

GUATEMALA,

The letter of Mr.. Pearse, pub
1ished in this issue, describes the
existing conditions in a country
where free silver has been fol-
lowed by its natural successor,
unredeemable paper money. 1t
is true, specie payment in Guate-
mala is supposed to be only tenn
porarily suspended, but the les
son is the same. A permanent
suspension would certainly not
lessen the discount on the "fat''
money.
Mr.. Pearse clearly shows that
the laborer and the farmer are
the greatest losers under the op
erations of a free silver law.
The price of their labor and pro-
ducts does not rise as the price
of the unstable money falls.
Of course Guatemala is a mis-.
erable, half civilized, poverty
stricken country, while the Uni
ted States is rich, and civilized
and powerful; but that is exactly
the point. A poor monetary
system is both a sign and an in
strument of degradation. The
populist who complains that free
silver is being tried only by the
poorer nations, is surely related tc
that Irishman who made the i'm.
portant discovery that a navig.
able river fortunately runs by all
large cities.

from church control could not
have been accomplished, but for
his careful and intelligent COM

sides of this most important in
stitution will continue and find
extension. We regret to have
been forced to make this exa1nin-

necessary by the attempt to
claim for him and for his one
year of Office all the good results
OF plans of work laid down by
former boards of regents, and de-
veloped and extended by former
presidents. The State Agricul
tural College of Oregon was a
great and growing institution
before Mr.. Miller's name as re-
gent or as president was heard O
| in its councils. The best that
, we can say of him is that he ha:
t done better in his unaccustomee
