MYRTLE CREEK, Sept. %, 1879
EDITOR INDEPENDENT: have no.
ticed your article of week before last
in regard to the strength of the Thayer
Bush wing of the Democratic party in
this State, and the comments upon the
same made by the Salem Mercury +;
and as far as my knowledge extends
endorse your article and the comments
of the Mercury fully.
Since 81 l have resided near this
place and voted at every general el.c-
tion, incluiing 1859 /; and do not for
get how earnestly the Bush ring la
bored to defeat Lansing Stout for
Congress, and how very near they
came doing it. Nor have I lost sight
of the action of the ring up to the
time that they took control of Gov.
Thayer and shaped his administration
to suit their selfish purposes. The
Democrats in this precinct voted for
and did all they could to elect Thayer
but had they known that his
election would have resulted to the
advancement of Bush and his cor
rupt ring, and place in their hands the
control of his administration, he
would not, could not have secured a
half dozen votes in the township.
And outside of Rosehurg, in all Doug.
las county. there are not in my opin-
ion, one dozen Ihayer- Bush Demo.
Gratis, and shall the thing ever be
tested, you will find that am right.
and no one will ever be elected to
office in this county who will declare
in favor of either of them. 1857.

CHANGE YOUR SEED.

We have two specimens of wheat at
this Office, of the Mediterranean va
riety, which will be difficult to inn
prove upon by any farmer in the
State. They were grown on the farms
of HI. Conn, Sr., and of Mr.. Clayton,
Calapooia precinct. This seed was
new to the county when planted, and
the result is plump grain; and when
havest time came there was no rust or
shriveled wheat. Mr.. Conn and
Mr.. Shambrook, to whom We are
Indebted for the samples have always
held that change of seed in wheat
was necessary ever few years, and the
samples we have are proof, not only
of the excellence Of the wheat but the
soundness of their idea. Following
their thought we would argue that as
the fields of the two sensible farmers
named we're not injured ty rust or
other perplexity and detrimental
difficulty, 1T would be wise If our
farmers would generally regard a
change of seed as advisable. Seed
wears out as do breeds OF cattle and
horses. There must be a change IN
the breeding of stock or stock will de-
teriorate in value, size and health.
This same principle will apply to the
growing of cereals. For q number oi
years wheat will produce we'll upon a
certain class of soil, and afterwards be
afflicted with either weavil, rust o.
some other complaint, following
which there is failure of crops. Ye
new wheat, grown upon another clas
of soil and transplanted by the sowe
of grain, will yield thirty, or forty, o
fifty bushels to the acre even in thos
years which plague seems to visi
the crops of all fields surrounding til
well-grown, or more properly speak
ing the well-producing farm whicl
escapes injury. Such is the history o
this new wheat-the White Mediter
ranean. The fields surrounding tn
spots in which it has been plante
have failed to produce an average Gro
because of rust, blight, etc and ye
the new seed has not failed. Is no
the connection between cereals an
soil the same as the breeding in cattle
horses, pigs, or anything else? Is nc
there needed a change in soil or seet
and does it not follow, a close con
neetion of cereals and soil, in tn
course of time will depreciate til
value of both

OUR DISPATCHES.

The Oregonian grumbled and at
last published false dispatch in re-
gard to the wrecking of the Alex.
Duncan to show that this paper does
not publish later coast dispatches
than any other journal in the State.
Our contemporaries, in a fit of jealousy,
took their cue from the Oregonian
and repeated the Oregonian's false
news. If they will take the trouble to
inquire they will learn that the Alex.
Duncan yet lies high and dry at the
mouth of Rogue river /; that her bro
peller has been sent to San Francisco
for repairs +; that it is not likely the
steamship will ever be taken off the
sands, and that if she is, she cannot
reach Portland fer several weeks at
least. This paper publishes no news
but that which is reliable, and it pays
for such news and if our cotenpo-
raries cannot afford to do the same,
they should be manly enough not to
speak otherwise than truthfully of our
enterprise in making this newspa-
per. AS proof of the reliability of our
dispatches from Coos Bay, We append
the following from the Coast Mail o;
last week:
The Roseburg INDEPENDENT pub
fishes later news from the coast than
any other paper of the interior The
publisher Of that paper possesses the
elements of success.
The people Of Coos Bay have always
shown warm feeling offriend,hip for
the INDEPENDENT, and in that county
to-day 1t has the largest subscription
list of any paper outside of those pub
lished there. This would argue we
should return the compliment, and
our dispatches are in part secured to
attract attention of those seeking
homes to the many Inducements held
out TO settlers in the natural resources
o Coos county. Then we have always
coatended that the day was not far
distant when Coos Bay would become
Douglas county's outlet to the sea; and
We think there should be a common
Interest now between the two counties
which would teach the people in ad-
vince OF thu approaching friendship
which will exist and prove everlasting.

THE WORST YET.

Wo ods' administration of State
affairs was considered a disgrace to the
party that elected him to Office.
Woods, however, is not now regarded
as having been worse than is the
present executive of Oregon, or was
the reputation of his administration
more common or disreputable than is
that of Gov. Thayer. Woods was
charged with being unduly Influenced
in many of his pardons to conviets ;
II is reported that Thayer has been
similarly influenced, and the report
has perhaps reached the ears Of every
citizen interested in the government
of Oregon. Thayer is also charged by
e1mmon report with appointing men
to Judicial positions whom he after
wards influenced in their decisions of
law, and has appeared before them as al
attorney in several questionable cases.
Woods never did anything worse than
this. While Woods charged for buggy
hire In visiting the penitentiary, and
was called a thief therefor, Thayer
is charged openly with turning con-
victs loose upon the people that he
may save in expense in the manage
ment of the penitentiary and secure
cheap credit for economical manage
ment of that institution. Tho con-
victs thus turned loose have in many
distances been returned to the peniten
tiary for the commission of fresh
crimes, and after heavy costs to tax
payers.
When the next election comes on
and Tbayer's party enters the field
we cannot but think public opinion
will regard the Governor and his party
rs even worse than was Woods and
the Republican party regarded at the
close Of the latter's administration
II will be a matter of general surprise
If Thayer and his party are not de
feated by 1900 to 1900 majority in tn,
State.

for upreme Judge, we hear mentioned

Lane is a fine lawyer, a student, honor
able in his ideas of the law, and the
best candidate we have heard named
by the Democrats. If it comes to De-
mocracy and this shall be the cause
for election, then the election of Mr..
Lane should satisfy the Democracy,
since he is the offspring of one of the
greatest warehouses of the Democratic
party.
