OF the state as these

expedition between the terminus OF the
graded but unrailed portion OF the Oregon
Pacific railroad and the Bald Mountain

tween the railroad and the mines Is IS miles,
and that wagon road could be built over

1t is DR. Portugaloff, Russian physi
clan, who has discovered that a man can't
drink whisky after taking strychnine. It
did not require gentleman with such a
remarkable international name to find that
out. A great many men knew that strych-
nine would disqualify person for drinking
whisky or anything else.

The day will come, and is otfar distant,
when the men who will be hardy enough
to advocate the taxation of the people by q
protective tariff for the direct benefit of
individual or corporate interests will be
looked upon as an enemy to the republic
and to the fundamental principle of free
government.

of surplus that accumulated during the
year ending June goth, 1883, is So7,ooo,ooo
In round numbers The surplus for several
months past has been accumulating at the
rate OF one hundred millions per year. The
total value Of all woolen gods imported
into the United States for the year ending
July goth, 1857, was S4a,44S,Ia7.o4. The
amount of duties collected on these goods
was Sao,7s6442.5o. This would be an
average duty of 60 per cent. That Is to
say on every Sfoo worth Of woolen goods
imported 500 duty was paid. This enor-
nous tax was actually paid by those who
consumed the goods.
1. This Is an important question to
.Farmcr,n rs II directly and vitality affects
their personal, monetary interests.it can be
shown very easily that the farmers of Linn
county would be largely benefited by the
passage of the Mills bill. There are $4,000
sheep in Linn county. They win average
say pounds Of wool to the sheep. This
would amount to aIo,ooo pounds. Now, u
the sheep owner should lose ten cents q
pound on bis wool by putting It on the free
LIST, (Io.cents pound being the present
duty,) then the entire loss to the county
i would amount to Sal, 900. Now II the farm
er loses TO the extent of the amount of re.
ductie1 made by the Mills bill on the arti
Gle which he has to sell, then he will gain
to the extent Of the amount of reduction
made on the srsicles which he has 70 buy
It will take a million of sacks to hold the
grain that will be shipped from Linn coun-
ty this year. The duty Is cents sack
The Mills bill puts these sacks on the free
list The duty thus removed from mil
lion of sacks would amount to $4,000
.. Here on sacks alone the farmers of Linn
county would gain back all that they would
lose by reason of putting wool on the free
list But then there would be large gains
by reducing the duty on woolen goods from
, an average of 10 per cent to As per cent
On the woolen goods alone the people o
the county would make all back which they
. lose on wool four times over. Then here
are the gains to the farmer by putting salt
, lumber, etc, on the free list, as well as th'
