!),-FICIAL PAPER FOR BENTON COurtTY
PORTLAND AND THE OREGCNIAN
In the Daily Orejonian of he
17th Inst., Ln a contrilmted article
emitted "The Ileal Estate Market,"
We find the following unkind com
ments: "The Yaquina Railroad Co. is retorted to
have floated its bonds in New York. Some
wlio are well acquainted with Yaquina Bay,
inform us that au enormous expense will be
required to Mali e it an available shipping
port. Be that as it may, we have no fear
1 hat it will Work any harm to Portland
Concentrated wealth and well cemented
t cmiaemal ties are hard things to move or
t. fight, and Portland has both. Possibly
if a number of capitalists would unite and
rpend a hundred millions in building up
.-.r.other city at some point on the sound,
i r even at Yaquina Bay, with another hun
dred millions to make tbo chosen site afrail
i i'le, a real rivalry might arise-"
It is a common thing to find com
i . nts like the above appearing in
v- i-lolumns of the Oregonian some
1 :;ie? in its editorials and at Other
! tinea contributed by others of the
i g under the disguise of newp, and
ii! .ny times mingled with other mat
ters under an inappropriat title like
the one under consideration.
This class of individuals among
the whole lot ot them do not appear
to entertain "a single i3ea concerning
public improvements in the state ex
cept the same is to be made at Port
land. In fact they neither advance
or have any ideas concerning public
mprovtmenls for the benefit of the
whole state at large but amon them
the single idea appears to be common
and that is only about Portland. If
a piece of improvement is suggested
to be done in any other part of the
stat2 the Oregonian which is taken
and supported by all classes in all lo
calities in place of pursuing a thor
ough public spirited course as it
should do its ostensible editor or
some of the ring who pretend to con
tribute news in the place of inquiring
and considering whether or not such
improvement will be for the general
benefit of onr young and growing
fcJate the first question they propound
is. Will such improvement if finish
ed injure Portland? "No we have no
fear that U will woik any harm to
Portland." And then she will strike
at the contemplated public enterprise
a back handed lick probably by say
ing that "some who are well acquaint
id with Yaquina Bay" (aud who nev
er saw it and who probably are iufln
euced by Portland (fpital in the in
terest of the ling) "'inform us that an
enormous expense will be required to
make it an available shipping port;"
such a course by a public newspaper
which claims-to be published in the
interest of 'he public enerallY
contemptible. An orjran which claims
to be a state paper should rise aoove
individual interests and should in
quire into advocate and endeavor to
promote first the interests of the
state at large and then interests of
different localities.
We think we can safely speak for
the other portion of the state in this
that they do not wish Portland any
haim but on the contrary they want
her to continue to advance in impor
tance as it has done heretofore, but
while they cnteitain this commenda
ble feeling toward Portland, they de
sire to eve other portionsof the state
advance in proportion, and while it is
not probable that other localities will
advanoe equal in proportion to Port
and on account of the concentrated
capital there to assist her, yet we do
think that it is for the interest of the
whole state as well as Portland that
other localities should be improved
and grow to importance. How
would it appear to the passing stran
ger to see Portland like the stall fed
calf, pampered to unusual propor
tions, while other portions of the
state dwindled into insignificance or
remain without having a correspond
ing amount of improvement. Such a
state of aftairs would without doubt
be charaoteiized as unwise by every
sensible man.
The course of ihe Oregonian
adopted in trying to retard the prog
ress of all other portions of the stale
in order to sustain Portland if it
speaks ot tnese matters as conveying
the sentiment of Portland, it puts us
in mind of the unfaithful boy who
had been fed, sustained and reared in
luxury and affluence by bis tco fond
parents until he had arrived at the
age of majority, after which he left the
parental roof and treated with utter
scorn and contempt those parents
who had sustained him when with
out it he would have perished. It
has been sustained by all other parts
ef the state from which their hard.
earned savings have annually, flown
in a continual stream for the last
twenty five years into the tills of
Portland the result of which is that
Portland has grown to unusual pro
portions compared with other parts
of the state and now when other por
tions dare think of improving their
locality Portland, through the Orego
nian, comes forward with unusual
promptness to discourage and put a
stop to nieh progress thus attempt
ing to destroy the hands that have so
long sustainad aud supported her.
Wc confidently believe that the
contemplated improvement com
mencing at and extending from Ya
quiua bay when completed will not
in any way injure or retard the prog
ress of Portland for the reason that
it the proper condition of affairs ex
ist all other portions of the 6tate in
cluding Portland will increase in
proportion and importance as well
land while the Kail Road to Yaqu'na
bay will nndoubtedly take away a
large portion of the produce of Ore
gon, yet the state with her over abun
dant facilities for agriculture, manu
factories and other industaial pur
suits will undoubtedly improve to
such an extent that Portland will
still maintain her present commer
cial importance and suffer no incon
venience or harm on account of de
velopments elsewhere.
THE AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, CQR-VALLiS.
The last days of May and first of
June are set apart for the end of the
College yerr. There are public ex
hibitions given by the various class
es, in which the pupils declaim and
recite, to the admiration of numer
ous audiences of their friends and ac
quaintances. But to us th J more interesting part
by far are the public examinations of
of the advanced class in agricultural
science. This year they had the
added attraction of a committee of
three members of the StateGrange of
Patrons of Husbandry. An attack
was made some months ago on the
management of the College by a res
ident in Marion count y, on the ground
that is was wrongly named, and that
it had no title to be called an Agri
cultural College because of the gen
eral and wide range of the studies.
To this President Arnold and his
colleagues replied that whilst they
gave all the students the opportunity
of improvement in general learning
and literature, yet they paid special
attention to the various'subjects bear
ing on scientific farming, and they
invited their assailant, in common
with others, to attend this examina
tion and judge for themselves. Hence
the presence of the Grange Commit
tee.
The examination was held on the
27th of May, and lasted from early
morning till late at night, with nec
essary intervals for refreshment.
The senior class, of about 16 or 19
students were called cn in turn, and
read essays, aud were examined in
various subjects, such as rotation of
crops, tre chemical constituents of
various soils, manures aud' fertilizers,
draining, green crops and grasses,
:he comparative values of different
farm products, the distinctive peeuli-
arit es and appropriate treatment of
various breeds of horses, cattle and
sheep. Tne audience coutained a
good many farmers, who had the op
portunity given them, and used it free
ly, of putting searching questions so
the Btodc uts. The answers given show
ed a very fair knowledge of the sub
jects, and demonstrated that the
teachers studied the great art of mak
ing their pupils think and reason, as
well as learn by rote. When the ex
amination was concluded Messrs.
Miato and Bewick, two of the visit
ing committee, rose in turn to ex
press their satisfaction at . what they
had seen and heard. It must have
been very gratifying to the Profes
sors that these unprejudiced judges,
chosen as representative farmers,
who showed their sense of the impor
tance of their mission by coming long
distances from their homes to fulfill it,
should speak as they did. It was
equally gratifying to those of the au
dience who took a real interest in the
success of the College to bear the
hearty expression ot the desire of the
President andhis colleagues to ac
cept from these practical men any
suggestion calculated to still farther
improve the course of learning pur
sued. We bold a strong impression that
the Agricultural College is doing a
good work, and we would urge the
Professors to continue to use every
effort to make agricultural science
attractive to the students. Oregon

The Supreme-court of the United
States haa decided that parties buy
ing policies of insurance upon tbo live
of individuals can only claim the
amount of money actually due to
them out of the policy. Any excess
collected from a company can be re
covered in a court of law by the heirs
of the person insured. This decision,
recently rendered, is a matter full of
interest for parties who are in the
speculative life insurance business.
This little game, it would seem, has
its limitations as a matter of profit.
If the heirs ot deceased persons whose
lives have been heavily insured, do
not take advantage of their opportu
nities they are not the style of heir
to which the country is accustomed.
Tie San Francisco papers describe
a dangerous count;ifeit in circulation
in that city, and as it is likely they
may be put in circulation here, we
give the description. It is a five-dol-I
r piece that bears the date of 1869,
and at a casual glance seems as well
milled as the genuine product of the
mint, the impression on both sides
being sharp and well defined. Its
ring closely resembles that of gol
A slight scratch betrays the fact that
the bogus piece is gold plated on
some white metal some-what harder
then silver. In a very short time the
plating wears off on the edes, exhib
king the counterfeit. A close in
spection ot the stars will betrav the
piece, as they are larger and not as
mathematically accurate as those on
the genuine. When new the bogus
coin will deceive anyone but an expert.
