A CARD TO THE (UdLl5
Editor Gazette : This country swarms
With such numbers of felonious robbers of
private character and virtue, that no honest
or good citizen is safe; especially as these
cowardly, base assassin, stab in the dark,
without having the cotlrage to sign their
names to their malevolent and false produc
tions. A writer, who signs himself Plexus,
Jr. i in the Benton Blade of the 3d inst.,
opens upon me a general tirade of abuse and
personalities. Plexus, jf. knows he has no
other means of wounding" my pride and
feeling, than from some missile weapon,
shot from some obscure corner where he
thinks he will not be discovered, lie seeks,
as all such defamatory writers do, to raise
suspicion in the minds of the people. But
I hope that my friends will be no longer
deceived by artful, designing men, who,
bankrupts in business, id fame, and in honor,
mean nothing more than to involve others
in the same common ruin with themselves.
Hence, it is, that they are constantly aim
ing their dark, and too often fatal weapons
against those who stand forth as independ
ent, fearless, conscientious men.
Mr. alitor, in conclusion, let me state
that I cannot take the time and space in
your valuable paper to step aside from m v
"mission" from the warning of the "still
small voice," to notice those malicious per
il rial attacks relative to myself, and the
Greenback Party, but expect to keep right
on in my accustomed course, neither turn
ing to the right or to the left, as the man in
the moon does when the little cur barks at
him. W. A. Wells.

FARMERS OF BENTON, ATTENTION.
The attention of the farmers of Benton
county is called to the Oregon and Washing
ton Colony Land Company. Persons desir
ing to sell lands will be glad to know that
there is an immense company organized.
With $100,000 capital for advertising pur
poses. Its object is to enswer all reasonable
inquiries of persons who contemplate com
ing to Oregon or Washington Territory.
This is done by giving full and complete
descriptions of all farms offered for sale,
with 'the price of the farm over the signa
ture of the proprietor. These papers are
kept for gratuitous distribution in their offi
ces, in all the cities ot the United States,
so that every man desirous of coming to
Oregon or Washington Territory, can know
just what kind of a farm, and at what price
and locality he can get, before he starts.
In this way many persons have bargains
fully made before leaving the States, subject
to the condition of finding everything; truly
described. There is no cost attached to ad
vertising, unless a sale is made ; in that
event six dollars a year is charged for adver
tising. This company has commissioned
Messrs. Chenoweth 4 Johnson as their
agents at this place. See advertisement in
another column.

Our total indebtedness as a people at the
present time, as closely as can be approxi
mated from reliable reports, is about as
follows :
National Debt. 2,300,000,000
States ...... ' oo.ooo.uou

Total.... 419,450,000,000
The total assessed valuation of all prop
erty in the United States is only about
116,000,000,000, so that we owe more than
three billions of dollars in excess of the as
sessed total valuation of all the property in
the United States, and still the burden
grows heavier. To say nothing of paying
the principal, the interest on this huge in
debtedness is terrible to contemplate, and
the question as to Whether the debt will
ever be paid becomes a serious one to con'
aider.
To calculate the interest on the entire in
debtedness would be impossible, because we
could not arrive at the average percentage
paid, but the interest on the National debt
runs up at the following rate :

This is how labor is taxed to pay the in
terest on our untaxed, unjust, unconstitu
tional bonds, for the support of an idle, un
taxed, privileged aristocracy. These bonds
should be paid immediately and the mighty
dram of interest stopped. They should be
paid Off in legal tender lawful money at once
and then no more bonds forever. The na'
tion must be arrested in its rapid strides
toward bankruptcy, or the Republic is lost.
As the load becomes heavier labor becomes
more oppressed, because it is labor that Itis
to foot the bilL We say pay off the Na
tional debt, cut dow a official salaries, stop
the outrageous official extravagance that
prevails throughout out land, tax capital
the same as other property and provide the
people with a sufficient circulating medium
to transact the business of the country on a
cash basis. Then, and not till then, will we
enjoy lasting prosperity. W. A. Wbixs.

THE LOAD (JETTING HEAVIER.
Mr. Editor : The public debt statement
for the month of July, shows an increase in
the public debt, during the month, of over
six millions of dollars. So it has been go
ing on under the present financial policy of
the John Sherman ring, who control our
public affairs. The load grows heavier -ei
ery day, every hour, every minute; every
second as time passes, and the road we travel
now can only lead to national bankruptcy,
and the downfall of our Republic. As an
excuse for this monstrous increase in the
public debt during July, Sherman says there
was paid for arrears of pensions during the
month $8,694,600. By turning to the finan
cial statement mentioned it will be seen
that he reports $282,605,273 as the amount
of cash in tfietretuury, and yet to pay a few
pension arrears he finds it necessary to
plunge the natron over six millions dollars in
debt; notwithstanding the fact he could
have paid the pension arrears out of the
idle capital locked up in the treasury, and
still have held a reserve of many millions
more than? there is any necessity of keeping.
Perhaps, however, this $282,605,273 la not
m the-treasury, but deposited with certain
favorite, pet bankers who pay Sherman
moderate rate of interest to use in buying
more real estate at mortgage rates; (This
is only a surmise of mine, founded upon
inference. ) However, this may be, the in-
famous outrage of increasing the interest-
bearing debt at the rate of six" millions
month, while a superabundance of cash
reported in- the treasury most be apparent to
every one. The man- who would borrow
money to pay a thousand dollar debt when
he had on-hand a hundred thousand dollars
in cash that he had no use for would justly
be considered a fool, and John Sherman, we
may justly consider worse than- a fool
knave.
We ask, in the name of heaven how long
the people will allow this work to go on?

lished in Eastern Oregon met at the Union
