It mws, so doubt, to tlx pie of Oregon, that they import all their gro ceriesbow did New Comer discover that fact? I never knew a farmer to makaa threshing machine; Is it tbe fault of the climate or the farmers that machinery does not grow like big potatoes in onr soil ? Let New Comer make a few plows, grain drills and- reaping machines, and peddle them out among farmers. Let him illustrate bis precepts by example I Bat 1 will ex plain some things myself for tbe beoefit of Aew Comer and Die many friends, who are settling in Oregon. Mr, B's.. barn snd bonse were filled, or rather furoinbed with imported articles, aod why! Because our merchants are so close fisted that tbey will not risk a peony for a chance to make a pound I Mr. B's., next neighbor used to make cheese and if be does not yet it is because he cannot sell it Messrs. 8. & H., established a dairy, made tons of cheese, bnt it could not find a mar ket ; our merchants refused to buy it ; another firm of S's.', in this county made fancy cheese until it became so cheap tbey threw np tbe business. Mr. O., went into tbe cheese biuiness, but bad at one time sixteen hundred pounds on band that coold not be sold. I bave never yt beard of a pound of tbe cheese made by these parties being coudemned as not t'O'id. Kcnrly all of our farmers make butter and sell it for fifteen cents per pound, and if it is filty cents to New Comer who's fault 13 it When butter was quoted at fifty cents per pound in hu''one, M , took a lot of fivsn and some packed to town, for which he re ceived forty cents per pound for the Iresh and tnirty cents tor tbe packed butter. Mr. , took s load of potatoes to town, tbey were scllinj at one dollar per bushol, but be bad to Uke seventy-five cents or no sale to the mercbinta. M. B., bad twenty bogs to sell, be took them to town could sell just filtecn to the pork-buying merchants in one day, as tbey could only ship tbut niuny by a railroad wuicu ID o people gave' forty tnoU' sand dullurs. But here let me drop a hint : the little pork sold by Lane county farmers was shin ned to Portland; next summer it' will come back, "California bacon, and be sold' with double Ircitfht charges on it to the consume in hueene City. One of my neijrhbors rawed fruit and earden vegetables exclusively lor 1' T.i. . . I . . r.ugvas mantel as loiig as 08 could Sell 1 1 win at aoy price. 1 be farmers so called of Lane county have to make pork wild, wheat worm ttu cents per bunhel and sell it tor 5 and 5 cents per pound nut. The farmers of Indiana muko pork with corn at 30 cents per bushol, and si'll ut 6 to 6 cents per pouud gross weight j yet our uiuicbants sty tney cannot pay more, as thev cannot com pete with CliicaL'o, just as if Chicsiru pork at nine cents per pound could be brought nre lor less man six cents per pound. Can Newcomer t xplain to tlwin thut six is less than nine? Our farmers raise wheal because they can sell it, pork; butter, cheese, poultry, beef, potatoes and a hundred other things could and bave been made here, but us they i . . . . nuu no mantel, or uo settled market at re munerative prices, tlmy have been neglected or entirely ahumloned. Fruits can be raised beyond estimate, but if they cannot be sold of what value are they? Cattlo cannot bo sold ; lioraes are not in demand ; wool sells, but sheep do not. And, as I said in u form er communication, we have a world of Intent wealth in our county, but it is not available or in demand. If writing lou-windcd epis tles would create a inarkft or induct the erection of faclorie a among m, Newcomer and myself could sunn wind up tbe business, but "wind-work" in Oregon is at a discount, and likely to be so while three iiimii try to ivo oir of one man s labor; when ibis rule is reversed the country may prosper. New- comer ia shocked to see farmers idl in win ter; what would be have tliein do wb-in the windows ol heaven are all rvu and tlw ga ble end ol eternity unptirentty knocked iu and tbe water pourinir out ai every crevice, crack und stur-liole of the vuulted lirinainent? When the mini is too thin to walk on and too llnek to swim in. what in the name of common 8no would' he put them at to keep them employed? Next we shull hear him quarrelling with Noah for spend ing his time floating around in the ark, anu meu lor getting "boozy" when the show er was over. For if a prson . sets out to find fault he can nlwurs tiud somebody or something to growl about ; but I hope, to hear of Newcomer turning himself loose to sot an example for us. I've tried for twenty-five years to reduce bis thsories to prac tice yet I am nothing but a poor inud daubiog Clod Hoitkr. P. S. Nowcomer is ont again, professing profound knowledge in ono sentence and ex treme ignoranco in the next, just as occasion requires. If 'nine-tenths of the people have noming lo sen." what do they bny with ? Io his letter published on tho full be says "nine-teuths." and inthcone dated Feb. 10th he says "not one in fifty;" next time I sup pose he will hurdly break bulk, but will is sue bis his absurdities bv wholesale. I have explained why we do not have notioua for sule because we cannot sell them. Three of my neighbors have been selling potatoes : others have potatoes for sale, but as they do n ... .... . L. . .. . : , t i , uut vara auuui iiivrsiiug largely in ary goods they will not drag them through the mud to Eugene City for 7o per bushel in trade, when they are worth 30 per cent more in each, and when seven bushels and a half would clop the market and create a panic. Newcomer must get bis price list from the merchants. as we never get tbe prices he names for what we sell. At to buying . what we eat, none, not one of my neighbors farmers does any sucb thing ; they lire as I have done, and do, and only buy what does not grow in Oregon. As to cheese, I have stated wbat is known to many in this coun ty. We all have chickens hens but they seem to know that twenty dozen eggs would ruin the Kugene market, hence they will not labor in tain. We could make lortunes nay, bave made them (?) by drying apples at ove cents per pound, when the labor and fruit cost ten cents a pound to dry it Let .Newcomer interview the merchants and mar- ket. cm. State Bepubllcan Central Committee. The State Republican Central Committee convened io Portland on tbe ICth, pursuant to the call of tbe chairman. In the absence of fhe Secretary, Mr. J. C. Moreland was chosen Secretary pro tem. AH tbe counties were represented. A committee was appointed to prepare a call, consisting ol W. II. Odell, J. W. Watts and J. N. Dolpb, who bronght in the following report, wbicb, after some amend ments, was adopted: - Mr. Cliairman: Tbe committee appoint ed to prepare a call for a Republican State Convention bave performed that duty, and report tbe following draft of a call for tbe consideration of tbe committee : A Republican State Convention is here by called to convene in the city of Port land, Wednesday, May 3d, 1876, at 11 o'clock a. m., to select six delegates to tbe National Republican Convention, candidates for judges of tho supreme court io tbe sec ond, third and filth judicial districts, for prosecuting attorneys for tbe several judi cial districts, three presidential electors, aod a candidate for representative in congress, and for tbe transaction of sucb other busi ness as may come before tbe convention. It is recommended that primary and coon ty conventions in the several counties be held as follows : Primary conventions oa Wednesday, April 19th, and county conven tions on Wednesday, April 2Cib, or at such other times as the county committees may appoint. Jn making this call for a Republican State Convention, tbe State Central Com mittee realize tbe fact that too much im portance cannot be attached to preliminary operations. This being a "government of the people, by the people, for the people." the agents or officers of tbe government should be in accord with the people. Ac cording to the general accepted plan of selecting candidates, the first steps are taken io our primary, county and State Conven tions. These from the ground work of political organization upon which the whole supersti uclure must stand or fall. If honest men desire honest officials, is it askiug too much that tbey lay aside for a day all other business affairs and devote the time neces sary to select proper persons to attend county axd State-conventions ? In view of these considerations and of the important interest at stake we earnestly an peal to all legal voters who are in sympathy with the principles of the Republican party. regardless of personal likes and dislikes to rally at tbe primaries, and see to it that none but true men are entrusted with the business of .preparing for the coming political cam paign. Select men who are not only true memseives in me broadest sense of that term but men of discernment, men who can and will choose wisely for the good of the people in denance of ''rings and clinnes." xi is unnecessary at this time to reiterate in this call the principles of tbe Republican mi ij , in giunuua recoru is BUU iresu 10 the memory ol an enlightened public ; it is 3ound nnon all general principles afiectine our national existence; it is thepsity of progress ano development ; it exposes cor ruption wnerever lound and alllicts punish meat upon conspirators, fearful and sudden, without respect of person or position ; it mvors me universal enlightenment of the people without trammel of creed or ism. anu us banners is found in the van eadinr on the hosts of reformers iu all that tends to higher civilization and enlarged .freo- dom.
