RoSEBURG PAST AND FUTURE.

Rosebrrg has not experienced the
blight predicted by Portland newspa.
pers from ceasing to be the terminus
of the Oregon and California railroad.
The road moved south nearly one year
ago. Many new houses have been ad-
ded to cur city since that time, and at
present there is not vacant house in
the town. Persons desiring to settle
here are compelled to board their fam
lies at the hotels until houses can be
built, or go elsewhere.
The company having definitely fixed
this as the end of the first division Of
their road, and now are about to erect
their round-house and machine shops
here, it will prove of far more and in
calculable value to us as city, when
the road is completed, than the honor
of being simply the terminus of the
line.

The Lappeus Investigation.

The Lappeus investigation, which
has been occupying committeeeof the
City Council of Portland for several
weeks, to the utter disgust of all fair
minded people, is liable to terminate
disastrously to Carrie Bradley and her
Lilliputian followers, engaged in pros
esating Chief Lappeus. They will
never be heard of after the closing
scene of the investigation until the an
nouncement of their love-feast through
the columns of some Sunday paper, on
the occasion of their reunion with Car
rle upon her release from prison, again
brings their sterch before the nostrils
OF an incredulous public.

doctors, properly known as quacks.
Our neighboring State of California, a
few years ago, passed law against
quackery, making it criminal for these
despicable persons to practice their ne.
farious JuggleIy on the inhabitants OF
that commonwealth Many Of these
heartless beings not possessing the nee
essary medical knowledge to pass the
examination of the board Of physicians
and fearing the law would be enforced
for their malpractices, have overrun cur
State with their blighting presence,
and many new-made mound in our
cemeteries attest their wicked and ig-
norant practices. To our shame, be it
said, there is no law in Oregon to pre-
tect our people from their devastating
influence. It is time that something
should be done to obyiate this curse
and protect our people from these
assassins. Should our next Legislature
do its whole duty we will have whole
some law against quackery on our
statute books.

THE INDEPENDENT
SATURDAY, JUNE 9, 1883.
THE TARIFF.

The leading Republican papers of
the East have started the slogan that
TIE Democratic newspapers of the
country are about to ruin their party
by forcing the issue of tariff for rev.
, enue only. The little fry of this coast
have taken up the cry and the feeling
which they seem to manifest for the de-
plorahle situation that issue will place
our party in, would lead one to think
that this time they are cherishing an
unalIoyed amount Of flial love for the
grand old party.
We remember that in 1876 the
Democratic party gained splendid
victory when an emphatic declaration
on this question formed most con-
spicuous part of their platform, and
was endorsed by an overwhelming ma
jerity of the legal voters of the entire
country; tnat 1T was the paramount is
sue In all those States where the De-
mocracy made the most unprecedented
gains, in the last October and Noveln-
Der elections.
The shilly-shally course pursued by a
Republican Congress for the last six
years on this question, and the rebuke
they received from the people at the
polls last fall, is we'll calculated to
cause the Republican managers to de-
plOre this issue.
The following paragraphs, clipped
from an exchange, forcibly illustrates
the action of the Republican party on
this question. Let us stand squarely
up to this issue and the people will APP
prove and endorse it at the polls over
whelmingly, because it is right and in
their interest:
We denounce the present tariff, lev
led on nearly 1000 articles, as a mas
tsrpiece of injustice, inequality and
false pretense.
It yields a dwindling, not a yearly
rising revenue.
1t has impoverished many industries
to subsidize few.
It prohibits imports that might pur-
chase the products of American labor
1t has degraded American CON-
merce from the first to an inferior
rank on the high seas. -
It has cut down the sale Of Amsri-
can manufactures at home and abroad,
and depleted the returns of American
agrieulture-an industry followed by
half our people.
It costs the people five times more
than it produces to the treasury, OBJ
structs the process of production and
wastes the fruits Of labor.
II promotes fraud, fosters smuggling,
enricfes officials and bankrupts honest
merchants.
We demand that all custom-house
taxation shall be only for revenue.
