THE EUGENE CITY GUARD. Saturday. ' 'V j. ....OCTOBEU 6, J833. tbc InofftDilve tiiotfiftlL !fte advocates of tlie Chinese iu the East have assumed that the Cliili are destitute of vices, and are possessed of such virtues that they have drawn npon tlieiuBclvea the hatred of the wicked white inhabitant of this tlope. Foraonie ini-xplical'le reason to theui the French, Dutch, Spanish and Eng lish colonies particularly the latter bare passed most stringent lawsagainst them. In short, iu whatever country be is, the people think his presence a curse; it is only in countries that he las not blessed with his presence that he is known as a perfect paragon of purity. A few weeks ago a man more emi nent for superficial know ledge than original research was in Portland lect uring on subjects that had Wen more ably and exhaustively treated by other men. He sair, proUbly meaning it as a sarcasm, tlat if tie (hn Mm drank whisky, chewed tobacco and voted (be Democratic ticket there would be no objection lo his presence here. The past week in Eugeno has proved that (ho Chinese have their quiet vices. A young white man and woman have been arrested for smoking opi um in a Chinese den, Of all drugs that are habitually used, it is consid ered the ntrst wasting, degriding and debasing. It takes such a hold on the system that ouco in its grip, there is no hope of reform. Such is the terrible, deadly habit that wherover a Chinaman eoes he introduces. And the fact is known to every ono that i through curiosity ho wishes to try the eflfocts of tho poison ho may obtain it at the Chinaman's. To fully under stand tho effects of this poison, it may be Mated that eminent physicians say that the evil threatens tho extinction of the entire Mongolian rao So fur reaching is the custom in China that the Chineso Government is making vigorous though futilo efforts to sup press it The immense increase of tin importation of opium into tho United has given alarm to men who have pai any consideration to this mutter. At least one young man may curso the day that he was tutored by tho artless Chinaman in the mysteries of opium smoking. Daniel Webster once said: "Sinai Is the sum that is required to take a newspaper, and well rewarded is the patron, I care not how humble and un pretending tho gazette which he takes. It is next to impossible to fill a sheet with printed nutter without putting something in it that is woith tho sub . acription price. Every parent who has a son away at school should supply him with a newspaper. I well rmembed what a marked difference there was between those of my schoolmates who did not havo access to nowspapers. Other things lieing equal, the first were decidedly superior to the last in delate, eotnposition and intelligence." Since 1 861 unknown peisons havo Mid flSG,459 01 into tho United States treasury to quiet their consci eneea. The largest revenue, from this source in any one year was in 18C8, when the contribution to the conscience ' fond amounted to $29,155 IK In 1873, 123,302 77 was added to the fund; in 1SC7, $12,952 59; in 1SC9, 17,403 21, and in 1878, 112,01133. Last year the contributions reached only 7,881 49, and this year the total will probably bo less than that unless somebody comes to the front with a big sunt. The Democrats in Iowa and Ohio Bava declared for a well regulated li cense system. The Iowa Republicans are in favor of prohibition; while the Ohio Republicans are in favor of the Scott Tax Law, a law passed w ith the Intention of pleasing the saloon men, the brewers, the license men and the prohibi'.ionisu Ohio hat been a reliable Republican state heretofore. The R'publicans are united, as they always are at elect ion time and the Republicans bare plenty of money, and will hold firmly the rotes of the corrupt, and the ser vices of repeaters and colonists. The Democrats are quarreling among them selves and the result is doubtful The FortlanJ Standard says that the "tat to1 mayor of Portland oflce de serted the Demovtaey for a gold w atch. It term from all accounts that he has A fondness for gold. The Oregon inu says that the Deme- - uTnm fVio nnli out" It's do doubt as disgusting to that paper as to Mayor Chapman. I It seeflis that a wonderful change has of late taken place with Ml til Helens since she lias been Linden from; :ignc during tue long smoky period. The snow has entirely disappeared from the north ride and partially from the south side of the cone. This to the oldest settlers, is something they never witnessed before. By taking olmervations through a powerful glass, steep precipices and dark chasms can be seen upon the north side, and the mountain seems to have a changed ap pearance. Oregon Mist. The fleecy" has already tagun to spread its w inter mantle over the northern part of Maine. Although in nearly the same latitude, the hills and valleys of Oregon have scarcely felt the touch of frost and we are, indeed, just rejoicing in the first rain of the season. While the industrious loggers of the ''pine tree state," in mufflers and mittens, are drawingtheir first logs over the snow-t the farmers of the land of webfoot, in their shjrt sleeves, nre turn ing their first moist furrows for the fall season. It is pleasing to note that one house hold in Oregon will Im supplied with Oregon butter this winter. The trus tees of tho insane asylum have pur chased thirty milch Cows and will bid defiance to tho oleomargarine factories of California. Trulyi it seems, life in the Oregon hospital for the insane has its compensation.
