Ce Courier Oregon City, January 10, 1S94. TUB A. P. A, The A. P. A. American Protective Association. No secret organization bears a name more suggestive of liber ality, patriotism and charity. The (flat of the Monroe doctrine, America for Americans, should be the motto of every one that breathes the air of Free dom under the protecting folds of "Old Glory." If it were, we would not be cursed by Anglomaniacs, alien million aires would not hold princely domains within our borders, and the tariff-fattened Industrial barons of Pennsylvania and the New England states would not hare supplanted American labor by shiploads of hideous paupers from Hun gary and Italy; nor would the great cities of Europe have spewed their thugs and pickpockets on our shores. America for Americans always 1 Hut when an "American Protective Asso ciation," and Its kindred "Junior Order United Amerlcau Mechanics," establish lodges throughout the country with the avowed object of making a political war on the Roman Catholic church and de- priving foreigners entirely of the privi J lege of holding office, they go beyond reason and subvert Instead of subserv ing patriotism. It can be most abun dantly proven from the pages of our country's history that both in the revo lulionar; and civil wars the soldiers of the Catholic faith were proportion otely as numerous and were as brave as their Protestant fellows in arms. To say that the Baptist or tiie Methodist or the Presbyterian Is more patriotic on account of his religion and the peculiar translation of his Bible is contrary to fact. Would It not seem absurd If an anti Baptist or anti-Methodist aflsocia. tion were formed? This mubt be ad nutted, however, that by reason of the large proportion of criminals and fol lowers of Johann Most that reach us from foreign parts, It ought to be less easy to acquire the right t vote and to hold office. The brains that guide the ureal organ ization called the Roman Catholi church would not and do not busy them selves with petty schemes against the secular Government of America. As it Is, in no country has that church grander Beld than here, but, let us ndd that In no land would the Catholic cm sen be more prone to rebel against the church if it demanded treason to our government as proof of loyalty to the church. But Rome will never make such a demand ol the Catholic Ameri can citizen. Enoland has Its full share of the hard times. Not alone are agriculture and the ship-building trade In a bad way, but leading securities declined nearly half a billion dollars in valuo during the past year. Its Imports full off $87,r00, 000 and its exports :I2,850,1100. Its trade In coal and textiles has dwindled alarmingly. In this city financial confidence is re turning and money Is becoming easier. The danger point of the crisis has passed. Let all hands tnke courage for we are getting out of the woods. Til it state tax levy this year Is 4 3-10 mills. The aggregate of state tax is $722,782, of which Clackamas county must contribute, on a net valuation of $5,872,183, 125,250. In the first week of January, $93,009,- 000 were disbursed in New York, and $27,000,000 in Boston and Pittsburg, for Interest and dividends. Hi-hatch a Southern or Western demo crat and von find a populist. The Oregon democracy in thisreBpect stands even with the democracy of the whole West and Boutli. Uregoman, Jan. 11. It is easy to tell a lie, and it Is speel ally easy to the man of callow conscience that edits the Oregonian. If he means that the democrats of the West and . South are in accord with the populi.-ts; in the determination to put an end to the payment of tribute to the financiers -r-c"' -n.l n..fnn.a fit Van Rnolknrl Mill iha middle states, he speaks correctly . But If he means that the Southern and Western democracy endorse the sundry vagarious and startling innovations that the populists would implant on our form of government, the Oregonian editor lies. A Quotation will elucidate the He. In his address on "Jackson Day" at St. Louis, Hon. Win." J. Stone, governor of Missouri, pithily stated the fundamental doctrines that make the democratic party what it is. "Since the adoption of the constitution of 1787," he said, "the blBtory of the democratic party is interwoven with the history of the Ue public. At the very outset the demo cratic party stood forth as the advocate of popular sovereignty and the chum plon of the common people." Tug republicans may raise a big corruption fund to aid in fiht inn the Wilson bill on the floors of congress, and may voci ferously declare that "democratic iree trade" has ruined the industries of the country, nevertheless, the Pennsylvania mills and foundries which were idle so long have nearly all resumed operations since the Wilson bill was reported to congress. The glass and iron works of Pittsburg are all running on full time now, the last of those which had closed down having resumed operations only a few days ago. In other localities also, resumptions are very num eroui. Aiore (nan twice as ninny factories and mills have beon started up within the past week than have shut down, but reduction of wages in indus trial lines continue very numerous in establishments which remain at work. Or the 11,272 immigrants who arrived at the port of New York in December, 4476 are put down as having "no occupa tion," and 2455, or nearly 22 per cent., could neither read nor write. The average sum of money brought by tliuse was less than $15 per head. One-third of them were Italians, with an average ol 12. There were nearly 1500 Rus sians, with an average capital of $10. The average in the case of the Bohe mians was $7.35, and 112 Portugese had only $1)34 in all. These are very small sums to stand between newly-arrived immigrants and utter destitution in a country where so many persons are out of work and the resources of charitablo organizations are overtaxed. Tin senate of the United Stales is composed as follows: Democrats 45, republicans 37, populists 3. The popu lists have made up their minds to vole gainst the Wilson bill. Senator Pefler Viaa mlA ll.-a as ur as lie was con cerned, he should oppose the bill and vote with the republicans. The other two populist senators, Mr. Allen and Mr. Kyle, voting with him. will reclin e the democratic majority to five. Hard Times. (Communicated.) It Is amusing to hear the numerous and conflicting reasons given to account for the "hard times." The free silvorite is certain that it is caused by the "gold standard" making a dear money for the DeoDle. The "golubug ' is curtain that it is caused by the uncertainty of keep ing a gold standard, owing to the clamour ol the silver states. Theardunt republican sees in it the first attempt of the democrats to rule the country, and the democrat, in turn, snys no change of policy has yet affected the country, but we are having the results of Mc Kinleyism gone to seed. Then there are a thousand and one hobbies each of which is a certain specific for tho unfortunate state of the country. It is quite interesting to see one of these hobby horse or merry-go-round riders, who has constructed his curcall-scheme entirely to his own sat isfaction, come horse-do-combat the first time he airs himself, where there is a little justice and common sense, but many are so infatuated with their own notions that they become impervious to the brightest rays of truth and justice, and the keenest shafts of ridiculo . That such persons can be listened to at our street corners and country meeting houses by anybody with any degree of pleasure, shows the crude state of our politics. It has not been our custom to attend to our politics with the judicious calmness we possess in eating our dinner, we have had too much fueling, been far too emotional and too much accustomed to hoop it np with brass bands and torch light processions. Such puerile methods remind me of the schoolboy game of "open your mouth and shut your eyes and see what you will get," when our quondam friend may, as the republicans have done, fill our mouths with sand .. With Buch methods, schemers and trick sters have got the best of us and we could expect nothing else but disaster. Class legislation has become a matter of course. Economy, retrenchment and reform are unknown factors in our olitical system ; consequently, taxation as in creased enormously, while waies are constantly lulling and the end Is not yet. 1'lacing the democrats in the urencti will not form a present panacea. The manufacturing industries have been boomed until the "home market" is glutted, and to place the goods in a foreign market will require a complete reversal of the high protective policy. But the overgrown baby will do some kicking before giving up, or consenting to a modification, even, in the supply of its public nap. Many of tho democrats as well as republicans have built up in diuttriea on this false basis, and it is a question bow fur they can be induced to oveicome present apparent gain for a more permanent and substantial gum of the future. I lien the votes ol the musses are not to be depended on in times nf political excitement, and it is possible that at the end of the present political term the republicans may have a further chance to inveigle the country on their disastrous lines. Before we have any real and goneral prosperity in the country, however, poli tical tinkering with the tarifl's for aiding private enterprises will have to be stopped. The constant wrangling and fighting for aid by public taxation lias ong been both a national calamity and disgrace. The support of the lire. id- winners lias been Hellishly given to the bondlers in anticipation of high wages, but IheCarnegies have given us a lesson n the division of the spoils which we hope will not be neglected. When the country has really learned its lesson and returns to righteousness, ami no. until then, shall we be able to change this period of vacillation and uncertain ily fur one of a confident, continuous ami substantial nature, which a change of parties will not be able toall'ect.

That the lawful author ities of tho several slates and territories of the United Stales in which there may be remaining portions of tho pub lic domain, be authorized to employ ami equip all the force necessary to open up said lands for settlement by the con struction of roads, reservoirs, irrigation systems and artesian wolls for the arid lands in their respective states, and also that proper drainage systems consist ing of levee and canals in the states having swamp lands, shall be constructed in nil tho slides having said lands and needing such systems of im provement for cultivation. Sec. 2. All lands so improved by the state authorities shall be open In settlers at not more than 40 acres or fiiictionu) fnirts thereof to any one settler as a lomestead right, inalienable, until all charges against it, both slate and na tional, are liquidated. Skc. 3. For nil expense that the state authorities may incur in the improve ment of paid hinds, the general govern ment shall reimburse said states, ami charge the same as a lien on the lands at a fixed pro rata rate per aero, and no title can he perfected until said charges are first liquidated. Sec. 4. Any settler desiring to avail himself of (he pn-visioiis of this act ran do so by complying with the present laws not in conflict witli this, except that he cannot obtain or own more than 40 acres of this reclaimed land. Sec. 6. Any settler who may prefer to reside on and cultivate said lands ran have the privilege us long as he shall pny the government a fixed rental sum an nually, to he determined upn the cost of improvement per acre, and any one so doing shall have full possession of all the income from said land as long us said rental is pai.l. See. 0, Any settler desiring further: assistance in stocking and improving his special tract may receive said assis tance, but his land shall be listed ut the additional cost of the sum ami renlul charged proportionately until lie has re imbursed the government for the ad ditional expense.

THE HOP INDUSTRY. Kanld Expansion of Arcn Under Cultivation. hniet Unit IVIco Will Full Hi low (ost of l'roJiirlhu. It hat been calculated that In the space occupied by our solar sjstem 2,-M,000,rjOO,rjoo,000 globes the size of our earth could revol re, tlch at a dis tance of 500,000 mile, from the other! o man can even partiall, comprehend what w meant by "the lathon.le,. sr. of apace ' nntitf ,e has read De Quince', translation of "Bichter't Dream." N pWr exchange come, to the Coi-aiM' desk than the Spokon, Opm- Mixed Live Stock. I have for the lust eight or ten years raised from SO to 80 hogs each year and some yoars as many as 100. I sell them in November when they are 7 months old. They should then weigh 250 pounds and upward, though thero are some in a litter that will not fatten as well as their mutes. There should be greut care in not feeding the pigs too much dry corn when they nro young. I generally turn them into a posture of clover as soon as they will follow their mother, and by the first of September can feed them all they will eat. I al ways sell my hogs alive. I estimate the cost of fattening each hog nt 8 months old as follows: Sixteen bushels of corn at 40 cents per bushel, $11.40; ground feed, $1, limiting $7.40. I do not reckon the milk that I feed them or the time for tuking cure of them. My hogs when sold average 250 pounds. I sold them for $0.30 per 100 pounds, muking $!(. deduct cost, leaves $H.85 profit per hog. But I tnudo one mistake. I ought to have fed more ground feed thefirst three months and less dry corn. The result then would have Jeen a 800 pound hog and $10 profit. I liavo no running water on my farm, but I have a windmill and f. large tank for my stock, which I keep ull most of the time, and have it so ar ranged that water runs over for my hojrs. It is very essential that hogs should have water that they can go to it at any time during the day, also having a place to wal low in. But I would advise my brother farmers not to go into hogs alone. Haves mixed crop, such ns wheat, oats, corn and cattle and a numlier of good cows, hogs, sheep and bees, and be sure and not forget the poultry. C. C. Andrew, in Chicago Inter Ocean. Chemical Dehorner. Dr. Salmon, the head of the United (States government bureau of animal in dustry, gives this us the "chemical de horner" used in his experiments: A mix ture is prepared by taking 60 parts of caustic soda, 25 parts of kerosene oil and 25 parts of water. An emulsion is made of the kerosene oil and soda by heating and vigorously stirring, and this is then dissolved in water. The mixture is then placed in a bottle with a solid rublier cork. This cork is to rub the mixture in when a few drop, are applied to the end of thecoming burn of the calf, which should not be more than three wwki old. It is strong stnff and should be carefully confined to these points. The subjects treated of in this proposed law for the improvement and settlement of the arid and swamp lands still be longing to the public domain, will hear a most careful consideration. Should the general government authorize the seve ral states to inaugurate the proposed nn Provenients, the states having these lands would instantly find plenty of work for all the surplus luborerj in their borders for years, and as tho govern ment issues no money until the work is done and thou assesses the cost upon the lands so improved, the dilliculty of redemption of the notes is instantly ob viated, as the sale of the lands meets all the cost of their improvements. In other words, the currency established upon land values so created would not be a debt but the actual realization ot tho trnnsferof lubor into a production of capital. - Every one ought to know that the increase of land values from 50 cunts ner acre to $50 bv the expenditure of $25 per acre, is not a debt to be paid but the creation oi new sources oi revenue to the government. Hence every dol lar's wortli of lubor expended in improv ing the public domain in this manner is the actual creation of capital making available resources Unit before were non-existent. The national government cun base its currency upon this one source of reve nue alone to the extent of two billions and be perfectly secure ai long us the land to be improved is not exhausted, for the land will be needed for homes. There would ho no chance for further monoplies, however, us no one could ever own more than 40 acres of tin se hinds, ami a fixed water rental to pri vute owners within the range of these water privileges provides (or all owniii"; these lands under our present laws. The mistaken ideu that tho treasury note, issued for labor already performed and convertible into other forms of In bor by its legal tender qualities, needs further rede mption, is a fallacy of I he goldbug conspirators ami too transpar ent to deceive nny but the most credu lous dupe of their designs. The whole mystery of our present financial and industrial depression lies in the fact that wo have ceased to em ploy lubor upon hind improvement, and instead of meeting the issue by inaugu rating measures to employ labor in pro duction of wealth, the present policy of enforced idleness will end in tho con sumption of our surplus wealth without tidcqnuto resources to ereuto mere wealth. if congress would authoii.e the stales to do this work and pay for it ns soon us done, there iced not lie another dollar of bonded indebtedness incurred until every acre of public laud is occupied by a prosperous and happy family, nnd then a slight tax on ull laud values would meet ull the balance ol necessary expenditures. The policy that pros trates the labor of a nation by depriv ing it of homes is a policy that brings ruin and devastation to the nation, while the policy Ihutcreules homes for its laborers carries its population to the bights of pence and prosperity. The following is (lie eihontlal half of an Important article on the hop industry written by a grower ami buyer of hop. ill Oregon published in the Orriiiminn : Tho only answer to the question, Where will ull those arrive in two or three years who now intend planting hops? it must be utter disaster. With envy the raisers of grain, vegetables, wool, etc., have looked on those who raised hops mid who have thus realized a little ready money, and now all nf them, it seems to me, want to go into hnprnising. There is no doubt whatsoever in my mind that already this spring Oregon's aero sue in hops will bout least doubled nnd so will bo Washington's. The Call- forninns are, however, more wise. They have been there before nnd know what overproduction means. In the veais 18'Jl, 1802, 1H!)3 the hopraisers were for lunate enough to realize a good deal over 10 rents a pound : hut how will it bo when prices get down below 10 cents, as we have had it several times before, when scarcely I or 5 cents can be hud? It will simply pay tho price of picking. Or what will be the condition of nflnirs when hops cannot bo sold at all 7 It is my honest belief that such time will surely come. You may, perhaps, think that whllo I am a hopraiser, I have a personal object in view in trying to keep others out oftho industry (for hop raising in an industry if properly carried nn, and not a common farm work, as many think), lint such is not the cas t. I am ulso a bnplniyer, principally f or Knglund, and in the interest of this, my principal business, 1 would like to see plenty of bops grown, the more the better, for then the time would come when I could buy them for $1 a bale. Do not think this u wild statement, (of I have dono this very thing in California within 10 years, The whole matter of liopruising, to any thinking man, is a plain question. 1 have been asked a thousand times what it costs to raise hops, in uuswvr now, no one knows. In order to arrive at the expense of production I have asked some of the more inlelliguiit growers in every district of Oregon; Washington and I'alfoiiiiu, how much it rests to produce hops, nnd in every ta.-e I have received u dill'eretit answer. Very lew keep an nccurnle set ol books, and they are therefore unable to answer tl.u question accurately. One of the most successful growers of hop in noma county, California (which raises the finest hops on the coast, the next best Ihoso of northern Marion county, Or., the so-called liutteville district), places the cost of producing hops at 13.' cents a pound. It is lair to say that fuel, poles, lubor, etc., area little higher there than here in the Northwest. The lowest estimate 1 received from growers in the Sacramento valley was 0 cents a pound. The manager of one of the largest Noil li western Washington yards told me that their crop cost them about 13 cents a pound. I have been told by an intelligent Chinaman who lenses a yard in this state nt u nominal ground rent that his hops cost 8 cents a pound, lint when white fanners assure mo that I hey cun raise hops ut 8 cents n pound I am led to draw the conclusion that they are simply mistaken in their calcula tions; that they do nut figure in the cost of production anything for their own work nor that of their family, not interest on the investment, uor deteriora tion of their hind. I sny that no man dependent on lured help and tiiriinug everything, including the wearing out and replacing of buildings, implements, otci, enn raise and plnre upon tlio market hops in bule under 10 cents a pound. Anything over this price may be figured us profit, but such profit usually goes back into the land in the shape of new improvements and neces sary repairs and nettermeut of tho yard. Now what will the condition of these men be if hops go down to G cents a pound? It limy be that you think 1 ttiu looking at matters only on tho dark side. but let us go into figures, for it is a well known fact that figures do not liu. My expeiience, however, lias been that, while figures may not lie in actual statistics, the careful business man duos not base his transactions always upon statistics only. If he does so, ho is apt to get (ooled nine times out of ten. For instance, take this year as regards the price of hops. We have been told nil along that Germany's crop was a failure, that Ktiglttnd s crop was short and of poor qnuliiy, ti.at New York state's crop was Miort nnd also ol poor quality, aiiii yet in the face of ull that the prices ever since hop harvest have been 4 cents a pound lower than those of Inst year. The market is exceedingly dull now, and this is in spite of the tact that onlv one-eleventh part ot the crop of 1811.') re mained in the hands of the coast grow ers on tho 31st of December, a little more than three months since the crop harvest. I will now give you a few figures that I received recently from u well-known New York merchant, corroborated by ollicial returns for the first nine months of tho year 1K!3.
