THE BENTON DEMOCRAT,
OFFICIAL PAPER FOB BENTON COUNTY,
SATURDAY,
: -FEBRUARY '8.
Hon. James iv. Helly has our
thanks for Senate documents.
Failed to Agkee. The jury in the
Tweed case failed to agree, and was
discharged. -
The expenditures of the Government
for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1874,
it is estimated, will be about $250,000,
000. This includes the interest on the
public debt. m
When a Walla Walla merchant gets
in debt, he simply advertises that his
safe has been robbed," and his cred
itors are at once willing to take twenty
five cents on the dollar.
The Pennsylvania Senate last week
passed a resolution instructing the U,
S. Senators of that State to vote against
the proposition to give the Government
control of telegraph lines.
Greeley's Will. The Misses
Greeley have withdrawn from the con
test of their father's will, suffering the
loss of $10,000 (the Bum in question
between the two instruments), in order
to avoid the scandal or a lawsuit.
Retired. Colonel B. B. Taylor
has retired from the editorial chair of
the Portland Herald. Though some
what given to' panegyrics and eulogies,
the Colonel is an able writer, and high
minded gentleman. His successor is
not named.
'Tis ' Well. Brother Carter last
week devoted his editorial columns to a
labored homily on " social evils." We
are glad to see these manifestations of
piety and virtue in our cotemporary,
and hope they maybe fraught with
practice, as well as precept.
We have received a letter from a
gentleman on Yaquina Bay, containing
some pretty hard itcm3 in regard to the
conduct of Hon Ben Simpson, during
bis recent visit to that section, which
we withhold from publication, for the
present, but will give when occasion
requires it.
Two Millions gone. Oakes Ames
and John B. Alley stated before the
Credit Mobilier Committee that the
Union Pacific - Railroad Company had
given a note to the Credit Mobilier
CompanyJ for $2,000,000 due on con
struction contract, which there was no
hope of its ever paying.

Dalton, No. 24 Beekraan sfreet, New
York." All moneys Eent East should
be directed to " Hugh Dalton, Presi
dent Typographical Union No. 6, No.
22 Duane street, New York." .
A Violation of law. Ben Holla
day's railroad bridge, over the Santiam,
at Jefferson, seriously , interferes . with
the interest of the people of that vicin
ity. . The stream is navigable for some
distance above the bridge, and the
structure not having been built with a
view to allowing the passage of boats,
farmers and mill men are compelled to
haul their products some distance below
the bridge, or submit to the exorbitant
transportation rates1 charged by the rail
road company.
Credit to the State Printer.
The Oregonian, in acknowledging the
receipt of a copy of the Session Laws
and Supreme Court Decisions, says:
"The laws and decisions, are bound to
gether in a neat " volume of about six
hundred pages. . The ' printing and
paper are far better than have generally
come from the office of the State Prin
ter, and the book is altogether' a more
creditable production than its predeces:
Bors." ' How about the frauds of the
Democratic State Printer ? -
" Seventy in a Bunch." Corporal
Blood wants one of the fighting editors
of the Oregonian to enlighten him in re
gard to military - tactics in the. Modoc
country. Captain Kelly, in his report,
says that the " tog was so thick Lieut.
Perry was in much danger of being shot
by his own troops ; that the fog 'com
menced in- the morning and lasted all
day; ' that while pur troops were fight
ing ' over a circle of five miles in diam
eter,' seventy Indians were counted in
one bnnch.". The Corporal doesn't un
derstand how to reconcile the apparent
incongruity of the two statements.
Who does?
FARMERS MEETING!
On Saturday last, a large number of
the farmers of - Benton county assem
bled at the Court House, in accordance
with previous announcement, for the
purpose of organizing a Farmers' Club,
and taking other steps looking to their
interests in the matter of storing, sell
ing and shipping grain. ' E. Hartless,
Esq., was chosed Chairman, and A. G
Mulkey, Secretary. On taking the
chair, Mr. Hartless made a stirring
speech, stating the object of the meet
ing, and admonishing farmers that it
had beccme necessary to form a union
among themselves, in order to protect
their common interests. A number of
speeches were made, favoring the erec
tion of warehouses, employment of an
agent to sell wheat, and various projects
for advancing the interests of the farm
ers. All favored the organization of a
Farmers' Club, i,n which these matters
might be thoroughly canvassed, and
the mutuality ot interests among pro
ducers freely expressed. A committee,
consisting- of E. Hartless, C. E. Moore,
N. P. Newton, H. C. Lewis, and A. G,
Mulkey, was appointed to draft a con
stitution and by-laws for the govern
ment of the Club, and present the same
for consideration at the next meeting of
the farmers. F. Stillson was appointed
Corresponding Secretary for the period
of one month, or until the adoption of
a constitution and election of officers.
Dr. Bayley communicated a proposition
from the Willamette Navigation Com
pany, to carry all the grain raised by
members of this Club, to Portland, for
seven and one-half cents per bushel, if
insured the whole trade for five j Dars.
This offer was thankfully received, and
will be duly considered by the Club at
an early day. ' The best method for
storing and shipping grain," was made
the subject for discussion at the next
meeting. The meeting then adjourned
to Saturday, March 1st, at 11 o'clock
m. We congratulate our farmers on
their large and enthusiastic meeting,
and hope they may speedily adopt Buch
system of disposing of their grain as
will free them at once from the power
of the speculator and the extortion of
the freighter. Let them build their own
warehouses, store, sell, and, if practi
cable, ship their own grain to market,
without being compelled to pay tribute
to a horde of middle-men, who hover
over it from the time it leaves the sep
arator until it finds a . resting place in
the epigastrium of an Englishman. Let
them take -measures to stop the ques
tionable and odious system of " bor
rowing wheat," which, although under
the aegis of the law, smacks strongly of
susceptibility of being characterized by
a severer term than " borrowing." You
want no warehousemen, no speculator ;
but are . certainly capable, of disposing
of your productions to the greatest ad
vantage to yourselves. The proposition
of the Willamette Navigation Company
should receive careful consideration, as
it comes from an opposition to the soul
less monopoly which, for two years, has
held supreme control of the river. Let
every farmer turn out, on the first day
of March, and take an active part in a J
matter in which all are so deeply inter
ested, and which so materially affects
the prosperity of Benton county. . .
The First Thousand. Last Mon
day was the 62d anniversary of the
Hon. Horace Greeley. On" that day
the printers throughout the United
States contributed the 1 price of one
thousand " ems," set up by each, to the
erection of a monument in memory of
that honored member ot the craft. The
monument is to be erected by printers,
and composed of type metal, cortributed
by the offices of the United States. We
gladly contribute our mite, wishing the
noble enterprise success. All honor to
the American type-setters. :.

News from the Modoc country is not
ot a startling character. No late en
gagements have been had. Captain

The settlers of Langell "Valley have
constructed stockades around their
houses for protection. All the wounded
at J; ort Klamath are doing well. Most
of the volunteers have been mustered
out, their term of enlistment having ex
pired. The idea of the Peace Commis
sion, ordered by Congress, is universally
ridiculed. It is believed that Captain
J ack will refuse to meet the Commission
ers, when they come J These high
dignitarres have been instructed to
treat with the Modocs for peace. This
is the usual manner of punishing these
savages for murder and vandalism.
Whether the citizens of that section
will submit to any such a settlement of
existing troubles remains to be seen.
These Indians rebelled against the ex
press provisions, of their treaty with
the Government, and began their work
of plunder and murder, without the
slightest provocation, and now to propose
to treat with them this side of Tophet is
simply an idea too absurd to be enter
tained by any sensible man.
