Attead the Primaries, .
, . It is the duty oi every Democrat
'in Lane county to attend the primary
meetings ia their respective precincts
to-day. It is a duty you owe not
-only to yourself and to your psrty,
. but tie whole people. If our party
r i lucoeasful in the coming election,
i let ni have only the best men in the
' party to make laws and administer
'' them, and fill the places of trust and
''jjionor,' 'And to be successful wo must
'Vj put such men in nomination. To do
' this, we must begin with the meet
ings to-day. If these' mooting, are
itonded by tho voters generally and
the usual amount of "wire-pulling"
dispensed with, tho County Conven
tion ill take caw of itself. It will
., lejond a doubt be composed of iScn
I who have no candidates to nominute
" cr aspirants to kill. While there are
'no' officer, of tho State gfvornment
'to elect tjiis year, tho elealion is still
n important one, and more than or
i -diuarilY so to the people ot Lano who
' have important local interests, which
' are really the interests of the whole
';gtato, to look after. There is to be
eleotod by the Legislature this year a
Senator to sucoced Hon. J. K. Kelly.
'"We hope die primaries to day will
aolect a body of delegates that will do
honor to themselves by working for
1 the greatest good of tho greatest num.

Canal Talk.
"r The project of constrnctiug a canal
'.from Bomo point either on tho Long
.Tom or Willaraetto river to furnish
'water power at Corvallis is ejain be
.' ing agitated.- A meeting iortfio pur
pbso of considering this matter was
'recently hold at Corvallis.
.. J. C. Jennings writes from Juno
tion City to the Farmer as follows
' I bare noticed oue or two extracts ia four
paper from the Corvallis Gazette io which
tbt writer advocates tbo building of a eanul
t from Monroe to Corvallis, to obtain water
' from tbs Long Tom, to secure sufficient wa
. tcr power to establish a factorj.'ur factories,
' at the latter place, and, at the same lime,
fleet the drainage of a large amount of we
lauds along the line, between tba two points
II of which I heartily endorse, as far as it
goes, bat It 'does not go half far enough
Hut to add to the practicability and eoneru!
utility of tbo above scheme, 1 will itatc one
which has for seme time agitated tho mind
of many of the citizens of ibis (Lane) couu
, ty, WQicb is, the constructing of a canal
starling from tbt Willamette riverat or near
Engana City, passing through Menroe, ter
mioaUngat Corvallis, connecting there with
'tbt proposed railroad to Yarpiina Hay said
canal to be of sulUiient capacity for trans
porutlon purposes. iy tunning the Wit
'latootte, an unlimited and unfuiling supply of
'water oould be obtained for water powers,
not ouly at Curvallia, but ut otbor dteirable
. poluts along the line. The proposed cans
' aud railroad would give the farmers a much
- cheaper rate of freights to the coast than
can eror be obtained without any compiling

eued and deeded, and, wilb tbe exception
of tbe bead cut, the work may be said to be
iuily balf dooe by nature. If we could bare
a committee from Lane and IIcoiod coun
ties to solicit subscriptions for a preliminary
Surrey and estimate of coat of const ruction,
I think we could soon bare the canal. Let
those lfao are iutereeted lake bold of the
matter at ooca!
Khould begUdto bear from ally one
ioowtog anything concerning the feasibility,
practicability and atilityoribeeboreecbctne.
; II. 0. Buckingham of the Uelknap
cttloraent Informs the editor of the
Gnxtte "that it would euhince the
value of land betw een Corvallia and
nia placo at least loO.OOO." Some
of the best land in tho southern por
tioo of Denton county la now almost
entirely valuuless io consequence of
oeing overnowed, which would be en
tirely reclaimed aod rendered tillable
by the proposed canal. Othor see
tions, for miles, tire entirely destitute
of stock water io summer, which would
euppnea by this ditch. But these
considerations, taluable as they are,
oo not compare with the advantages
aud beucfiu to be derived as a means
of transportation and water privilege.
;Tho people oi the northwestern
portion of this county are said to be
dlsowinga proportion, to bring the
water out of tie river at some point
above Springfield ar i empty it into
UtZ T cm, and it is sue'cteJ that
bote iukrcsle, io this matter attend
the meeting which will be held in
Corvallis next Saturday to make some
definite arraugemeuti to put the work
on foot. That a canal could be con
struoled from the point mentioned to
Long Tom at a comparatively small
outlay is evident of itself. There ia
already a ditch through which all the
water from the north side of Spencer's
Butte and the hills adjacent flows in
to Long Tom. This ditch carries wa
ter enough through the winter to fur
nish water power for all purposes.
By oponing it to the river, and we
are told by those who have examined
into the matter that , it can be dono
without any great dificulty, 'there
would bo a ditch which could with
very small outlay be made navigable
to an extent that would enable our
farmers to put their grain in Corvallis
at a very slight advance on the cost
of putting it on board the cars at Eu
gene, or nny othor station in the coun
ty. We hope tome of our represen
tative furmors will attend this moet-
ing and place tbo matter before the
pcoplo.
It h now easily understood why
tho stealings of Twteod fc Co. a fow
years ago so astounded tho country
The amazement was mixture of re
gret and astonishment on the part of
Radical oQioo-holdors and editors,
They were Astonished to think that
there was o fine a chanoo to steal
which tliey had minsed, and regretted
that so much had been stolen and a

Of the Connecticut election, which
occurred last Monday, the Portland
Evening Journal says :
The election yesterday in Connecti
cut resulted in complete victory tor
the Democracy. Ingersoll's majority
for Governor will be upwards of 5,
000. In the Legislature the Dem
ocrats will have a decided majority
over thirty in the House and thirteen
iu tbe Senate. . That will do for the
good old State with. the .penume of
the nutmeg. Sho leads the Dem
ocratic column in the good n'ghl
against corruption and extravagance,
&n the influence of her victory will
go abroad over the Union with the
most gratifying resulty.

to the Eunoa of The Ouabd:
Having noticed several communications in
your paper from Newcomtr.ln some of which
1 think be has done great injustice to tbe
farmers of this county, aud not wishing aucb
essertions to go abroad and have people
think thy are true, 1 wish to try to Correct
some of bis errors. It seems to me that
when a person writes for a newspaper be
should confine himself as near as possible to
the truth, especially if he writes for informa
tion and about a large class of people. Now
I wish to say I don't di ny but there is room
lor great improvement amongst the farmer
as well as amongst all other classes of peo
ple, but 1 do deny that they are guilty df all
the charges prefcred by Newcomer. I think
the farmers of Lane county, and of Oregon,
will compare favorably with lanmirs of any
other State. True, they may not have
fine improved farms us in other Stales, but
in Improvements, tbey are the crjnul of any

one would believe this to be true f When

And then to cup the whole, he says, "and

There are several reasons why this Mill abouid be
pieterred to all others:
1st. It is far more durable because It ts all
Iron.
2d. ' It Is Cheaper because of ita simplicity and
d-nability, and will ootlast several Wooden Mills.
3d. It is Less Complicated, because there is only
time pieces of operating machinery.
4th. It is mre powerful1 than any other Mill,
on account ol the thin 'an, and consequent in
creased suction of air, and because it b operated
by an ecceutric, being Tar superior to tbe crank
shaft or rest pin, as a lifting aud falling power.
6th. It needs no ca:e, no watching, bavhg
elf-leeding oil caps and self-regulatiug voaes.
it regulates, protects and takes care of itself. ,
6th. It never warps, shrinks, or swells, hence
it is not liable to get out ot order. Once up, it
goes all rlubt. ,
tth. 'It does diore work, runs easier and throws
a laiger body of water. It will submerge a larger
tract of land, witb p-Hswind and in a shorter space
nf. tune than any other Windmill now in use." it
may be set to turn out of the wind at any desired
ures-ine, there being a graduated lover for that
purpose.

the Calilomia State Fair, over tbe many others;
