THE INDEPENDENT. NOIICE.No certificate of publi cation ivill be given until the fees are paid. WE SHALL MAKE NO DE VIATION FHOM THIS RULE in future. Thursday, April 27, 187G. The Independent Ticket- Most candid ra en will admit that the ticket put out by the Independent convention last Saturday is, taken all together, a fair one. Dr. Bowlby is a host in himself, and we doubt very much if he could be beaten on either the Independent or Republi can ticket in this county. "We need just such a man in the Senate to vote aainstJIolladay and Mitchell next fall and two years hence. Most of the ticket is good and the Republi cans will have to put out a better one to .beat it, we are sure. We wait 'to see what kind of a ticket the Re publican convention will nominate beforo expressing our opinion con cerning the relative qualifications of the diffeient candidates. How They Serve Scoundrelly Officials in Greece. The Athens high court of justice sentenced Bollassopoulas, forme minister fo ecclesiastical affairs, to one year imprisonment, deprivation of political rights during three years, and to pay the $10,000 ho recieved as a bribe to the poorhouse. M. Kolo poulas, former minister of justice, was sentenced to ten months' imprison ment. The Archbishop of Cepha lonia fined $10,000, the Archbishop of Pattras $4,400, and the Archbish op of Messina $4,000, being double the amounts they received as bribes, and all were impeached for corrup tion and simony. Statistical. The Albany Democrat has compiled rom State census reports for 1S75, the following information: There nre in Oregon , to every voter 21 acres of land in cultivation, 193 bushels of ' wheat, raised to each voter, 109 bush els of oats, 11 bushels of barley, 3 bushel3 of corn, G tons of hay, 19 bushels of potatoes, 43 bushels of ap ples, 7 pounds of cheese, 57 pounds of butter, G8 pounds of wool, 1 pound of tobacco, 20 head of sheep, 4 head of hogs, 3 head of -horses, 10 head of cattle, $7 50 in gold dust. "They Smell a Mice." The property holders in Hillsboro are becoming excited about the pro posed split of the county, having discovered that it is a movo on the part of Dolph and Holladay to cap ture this county politically and to move the county seat to Cornelius. Should a Holladay Republican or a Democrat ticket ho elected in this county this would be the natural and inevitable result. The Silver Question. The silver question is settling it self. There is no substitute to sup plant silver as a fractional currency and the medium of exchange in re tail business and amoDg the poor er classes. In spite of the efforts in Europe to demonetize it, siver will assert its par value as a medium of exchange.

A Tribune correspondent writes denying that 200,000 Chinese are in America', whereof 75,000 are in San Francisco as stated in the recent meeting at San Francisco, presided over by the Governor. lie declares the figures are grossly exaggerated, and cites the census of 1870 and the arrivals and births since. He says there are only two ways to stop Chi nese immigration, mob violence, or an act of Congress. New York, April 19.

THE SITUATION IN MULTNOMAH. Portland, April 12, 187G. Editor Independent : Politics has begun herein earnest. The great statesmen who are anxious to be sheriffs and clerks, and their paid "strikers" and flunkeys are bus ily engaged in laying plans and drinking whisky. There are about five political factions in this city, which assumes to be the county, and each individual faction claims to be the. only party that can under any possibility of circumstances save the country. In point of numbers, strength and respectability the "straight" Republicans, the straight Democrats and the Independent Re publicans are about equally matched. The Corbett faction has lately been reinforced by the the accession of those "headless roosters," Harvev Scott, Capt. Crawford and Dan Ma lnrkey, and now all told hit party numbers about thirteen votes. The Independent Democrats tire a little stronger and may bo able to rally, if i they had courage enough to make a rally, one hundred votes. The Democrats having determined to run a straight ticket, the Repub lican manngers aro trying to patch up some sort of a truce to their mu tual throat-cutting dispositions un til after the June election. And it is upon the dissensions in the Re publican ranks that the Democratic leaders base their entire hopes of success in June; for with the Repub licans united and harmonious, the Democrats have absolutely no show at all. The question has been started as to how the Republicans can harmon ize. Dolph and Simpson aro the leaders of the straight Republicans and do undoubtedly control a large body of voters, and having tho or ganization of the party in their hands, aro a power not to be ignored. Their rivals for political power in the Republican camp consists of the law firm of Hill, Durham and Thompson, and their only power consists in the control they have of Oregon inn. To their aid has late ly come the decapitated office hold ers; and they together now demand of Dolph & Co. , half of the county tie-V. et or they offer to .bolt. Dolph & Co. undoubtedly pccl votes to beat the Democracy, but where will they get them? If a compromise is patched up between Dolph and Simpson on one side and Hill and Scott on the other, the tax-paying voters will be apt to say that is a put up job be tween mere politicians, and it will be better for us to put out a people's ticket. Dolph is shrowd enough to see through tlis, and therefore he don't "scaro worth a cent" fit the Orrgonian'x threats, and he don't propose to say "turkey" once to the "headless roosters" or the factious Oregon ion. But the question still remains, where is ho going to get his candi dates, or at least a part of them, to relievo his ticket from tho "curse" of Hippie and Holladay, and where his voters on election day? Those best posted here, believe that Dolph and Simpson will ignore the Corbett -Hill-Scott faction, and make terms with tho regular Independents, at tho head of whoso organization stands Joe Buchtel. Theso regular Independents comprise some of the best and most reliable and influen tial men in the city, among whom I may mention without any insidious distinction to hundreds of others, the names of Capt. Ankeny, Frank Dekum, the Strowbridges, Mr. Shin dler, Lieut. Kapus, Judgo Lawis, Judge Risley, Geo. Woodward, Jas. Partlow, Eli Morrill and many oth ers. If Dolph can capture this cle ment, he can count on certain suc cess, for theso men represent the real Independents who have been such for the good of the pnblic, and not for the hope and desire of any office or emolument. "Whilo there is yet no movo for a coalition be tween these regular Independents and tho straight Republicans, there is no obstacle to such a move. There is no malice arising from per sonal animosities, and no grievan ces like "senatorial defeats" or loss of oflices to prevent friendly iuter couse as there would inevitably be to prevent oo-operation between Dolph and Simson and Hill and Scott. But Dolph would have to give an assurance of good honest candidates, and no going back on the retrenching reforms; and he must show a ticket of good square representative men, an asuranco of low taxes, no jobbery, and no more Mitchell's or Holladay s for Senator.

A LETTER FROM A3TZ0NA. Phcbmx, Arizona, April 2, '7G. Kditou Independent: Sunday in Arizona is quite unlike an Oregon Sunday. Thero you have church services to attend, lectures, etc., but here nothing; once in a great While some old fogy happens along and llko Mark Twain's New England preacher in "Scotty and the Minis ter," jerks us a littlo "chin music." But none of them are capable of originating an idea. The3'talk of be ing "called, qualified and sent," and I think it more than likely that many of them if called at all, were not called for such a held as this, where a larcre portion of the population are Mexicans not conversant with Eug lish, and if qualified at all for the in in istry, not for this part of the moral vineyard, where loud talk is better appreciated than logical reasoning But I set out to make an apology for writing on Sunday, and if the fact that I have no other way of put- ting in the day be considered n good one, "sunguro." If those who think it a sin to write on Sunday don't ap prove, let them skip these lines. PrtcNix Is a town about like your own. in point of population, built of adobes and all the houses aro covered with dirt. These adobes are built of fine cut straw and clay moulded like biicks and baked in tho sun until dry and hard. They aro generally 12 by 18 inches, in length and from four to six inches in thickness, andarelaid up with cement. The adobe is a very comfortable habita tion both in summer and winter, be ing cooler than a lumber house ;n summer and warmer in winter. They are also very durable, as thou sands of ancient structures of this character in Arizona and Mexico at test. Phtrnis is Ihe county seat of Maricopa county and is situated mid way between Piescott and Tucson in the Salt river valley. Salt river furnishes a sufficiency of water with which to irrigate its entiro area, and many good farms have been located and are being cultivated and im proved. About eighty miles of ditching have already been done and many more will be taken out this year. The soil is very productive when properly farmed and and will grow all kinds of small graphs and most varieties of vegetables. The excessive heat of summer is a bar rier to the successful production of Irish potatoes; and corn is not a profitable crop. With theso excep tions I believe it will produce every thing that you can grow in Oregon, and with equal yields with your best lands. Several thousand acres of barley and wheat have been sown this season and it is now knee high and promises a good yield. The seeding is done in the months of December and Jauuarv, and harvest begins in the latter part of July. This valley has been settled by the whites six or seven years, though the most of its population have ar rived during the past two years. And they still continue to come ev ery day and from every direction, j and I apprehend that another year's ! l ' Ml 1 A A 1 A immigration wm exnausc me most of the good homes which yet remain to be taken. Though in other parts of Arizona there are thousands of in viting locations, and doubtless will be for years to come. J. E. Xavloh. STATE AND TERRITORIAL.

Chai ges of Corruption Made Against the President New York. April 20. Tho HWi' Washington special pubishes the fol lowing under immense head lines: Important and trustworthy evidence, directly implicating the President of the United States in illegal and cor rupt uso of the public money, has been taken to-day before the commit tee on the Department of Justice, and comes from no less a person than an ex-member of his cabinet. ex-At torney-General George H. Williams, who in fact shields his illegal coduct bohind the written order of the Pres ident. In a word, it involves the payment, out of tho secret service fund by order cf Grant, of $32,000 to aid carrying the elections in the city of New York in tho year 1871, '72 and '75. All this money was paid to the notorious John Lt. Davenport who was chief supervisor under the en- forcemcnt act, but w ho does not re ceipt for it in a sinlo instance as an olllcer of tho government, but sim ply as John L. Davenport. In one instance ho merely gives his own due bill for a payment made to him in his ollicial capacity, all duly receipt- i . i i i , , , ed and audited m the Treasury and correct and from all legal accounts this Corruption fund for election j purposes was gobbled from the secret service fund. Ex-Attorney General Williams savs ho was fii sst called up on to pay Davenport $o,000 in 1871. He hesitated to use the public money in that way, and called upon the President who after a brief conver sation ordered its mvmeut by writ ten order. In tl e fall 1S7'2, when t;.e i '" icsmcuuui 1-itui.m S2i),(i(H) was ordered to 1)0 paid to j Davenport, the ex-Attorney General 1 testifvimr that in each instance he received verbal orders of the Presi dent beforo turning over the money. East fall (,0U0 more were paid. When Williams half remonstrated against the largest payment for cl c tion in 1872, when Grant ran against Greeley, tho President said: "Da venport is engaged in a great work tip there; he must have money." When pressed by the committee on the corrupt and illegal uses of this fund, the ex-Attorney General eva ded and dodged and seemed reluc tant to tell, though not so willing after all to protect the President. This corruption fund was paid on the order of tho President, to Whitely, and by tho latter to Davenport. Whitelv produced to-day. to tho committee, Davenport's voucher for' every cent, and William corrobora- j ted him in that and in other rc-j spects.

The National ("I range Convent'on has been in session for a week past in the city of I.ouis-y'ille ; that city, after niueli delibera tion, having in-en selected as its permanent headquarters This organization, for reasons not difficult to explain, is far from receiving the attention which it seems to deserve. For some time past there has bet 11 a vague impression that the grange system was declining, and that its iniliienee was deci dedly on the Wiine. Hut there could not le a more erroneous idea. The grange, so far from Wing on the wane, never seemed more compact or iulluential, and the nieinlK-rs never lsfore seemed so r lUhusi.istie, in their Order. With respect to the strength of the organization, it is reported that th? total paying memltrship in direct affiliation with the" National Grange amounts to7'.J,-J;2. Ninety new granges were organized in the month of Octolcr last. The cash receipts and deposits in the fiscal agencies during; the last three vears amounted in round num bers to ?3oO,niK). This exceeds the entire paid up capital of all the agricultural soci ties formed in the United States during the List fifty years. A number of weak granges organized at the earliest period of the Order have been reorganized or united with other granges. It i- also found that a great number of granges have leeii organ ized which have not as yet affiliated with the National Grange. But the establishment of permanent headqnirtern at Louisville is expected to result in the speedy annexation of the local granges with the central organ ization. The local societies are expected to pay a percentage to the National Grange in order to form n fund for the lienetit of the entire membership. If these dues were paid regularly they would amount to $70,000 a year. But in other States the movement has not attained tho proportions gained in Cali fornia. NevertheleHs a vast amount of work has been accomplished in promoting the more distinctive features of the organization. One of the grand objects of the ejrange move mcnt is to dispense with the middle men ami deal directly Mini exclusivi ly with producers und consumers. ly thin xlicv they hope to effect a large reduction of expenses. They propose employing nun who are to be paid by commission. So far Ixjth the agency and commission yst m have been tried, and ju f,lt-t are now in operation ; but the preference is de idedl y in favor of the agency syhtcni. Even umh'r the smallest commission the aggregate amount increases to an enormous sum. Some of the graii-'es which suiiosed tliev had made very close bargain.- found their commission charges amounting often to sums of over :?10,KM). A commission ou the busi ness of the whole State' might thus swell fo ! 100,000. Th granges comprehend that! the commission agents might become tt rich and powerful under this system, and the agency system is conxoipiently coming into favor, lint even here- there ale diffi culties. The agents, ussimdof tin ir salaries, neglect their business, ami thus involve the grange in a financial loss. The State agent of Virginia report ;t business of .mo,MKI last year. The business of the Indiana agency amounted to a total of $;tfKJ.000 last year. In California it was reported that the tendency of the (Ir.uige Hank nt San Francisco was to r din e the rate of interest through the whole St.ue. The grange agency has reduced, tin commission on grange sales from two and half to one ami a h-lf p-r rei:t., end on produce from ci:;ht t.i two and a half per cent. ith these fact most person will be enabled to form an adequate id-a of the strength and weakness- cf the grange move ment. Its strgength lie in its sound char aeti r and or-'.- iiizuti di, in the increased attention which it compel.- each member to give to the levcl pjiicitt of all resources under his control, and to the sound lessons of political ceoii.ue.y which the patrons can not help deiiviic,' from the organization. The benefits r suiting from the union and equality of the sexes in the grange room are incalculable. It is the tendency of w; m every e re o, ,.. llll(.r. value the tr iiueitcy an l iiiilueiice of woman, j ftU(l ..,h:iv, ..ja is more open to censure (on this account than the farmers.
