New YORK promises TO suffer more than any
other city from the exactions Of the ice monopo-
lies, the companies there now charging SO per
ton t. hotels, Sl4 to saloons, butchers, etc,
and 4 per 100 pounds TO families. Their at
tempted justification of these demands is that
the crop on the Hudson was a failure and that
they have TO depend almost wholly on ice pur-
chased IN Maine. And yet, it Is said that one
company has inst purchased 1000 tons in
Maine which cost them delivered in New York,
including shrinkage and all other charges, 95.31

THE California vineyards are creeping up the
hil-sides large proportion of the vines plant
ed this year in Napa county being on the hills
and this is probably true Of other countits
where special attention is given to the vine
grape. One of the best judges in the state esti-
mates that the grape and raisin crops of 1880
will exceed those of any other year by so per
cent. He places the wine product at 1900, 900
gallons with probability of more rather than
less. The rhylloxera is only working on small

IN the course of our visit up the
Sound last week, we visited the Sc.
attic barrel factory, and were very
favorably impressed with the bust
ness prospects there. Probably no
one mandatory in the Territory
will do as much, for general prosper
ity as will this institution. Although
it is not yet fairly started, about so
men and boys are already employed
on the grounds; besides, several
camps are. kept employed by the
company at different points on the
Sound, il. getting out bolts. In a
few months, or after the enterprise
is fairly under way, it is estimated
that about $50 hands will be EN-
ployed in the factory, and that at least
100000 in money will be invested
there, exclusive of that in outside
property. The factory, drying house
ware rooms, wharf, ETC., az present
occupy FIVE acreslot. A fine one
hundred-horse power engine drives
the machinery, and another smaller
engine is nearly ready to be put in
operation. One hundred complete
barrels are made each day, and the
material is cut for fourteen hundred
more. The completed barrels are
filed with the loose heads and the
slaves and hoop are packed in bun
dies for shipment to San Francisco
where they are put together. Cot
tonwocd is used principally, for
making slaves aud heads, while
spruce will probably be used almost
entirely for hoops. The capitalists
embarking in this industry observe
great credit, and such enterprise
ought certainly to be encouraged by
all.

The platform Of the republican par
ty IN its plank on the Chinese ques-
tion bears the impress of the efforts
of the Pacific coast members. 1t will
not suit, nor was it framed to suit
the views of the rabble which con-
gregates on the Sand lots at San
Francisco and howl applause to the
words of Denis Kearney. The real
working men of the country are not
in That crowd at all; they stard aloof
and separate from all such conspira.
tors not only against the peace and
good order Of the country, but
against those very industries and that
business life and activity out Of which
workingmen derive their living and
sheir prosperity. The republicans
know that the only way which the
evils Of excessive Chinese immigra-
ton to this coast is to be checked or
avoided is by the action Of Congress
and this action is urged upon the
congress Of the United States by the
highest authority in the party. The
anti. Chinese plank is the strongest
that could have been made, consist.
ent with reason, and the party ap.
peals to reasonable men only. On
the action of congress depends the
hope Of a remedy which al! men of
intelligence on the Pacific coast have
admitted 10 be required by the exi.
genoies of the case. The platform
wisely submits the question to the
powers which alone, under the con-
s,itntion, and the laws Of nations, is
authorized to act. --"OregOnian." I'd

The recent election in Oregon is
conceded to have been, the most
sweeping republican victory in that
state since the war. Majorities range
from 1850 to 1900. Tbise will re.
lieve democratic representative
Whitacre from the perils Of crossing
the continent in lightning express
trains, after his present term expires;
it will relieve democratic Govern
or Taayer of his present official
honors; it bids the three democratic
supreme judges of that state to step
down and out, and, as both Houses
of the new legislature are strongly
republican, a successor for demo-
cratic Senator Slater will doubtless
be provided for from the republican
ranks. We expect to see ex Sena-
tor Mitchell returned with the ring
ing, acclamation vote he so richly
deserves.
