Wool. A letter to the "Standard"
from San Francisco, bearing date
March 2Gth says that wool was boom
ing; all coming in is taken at once At
prices 100 to 125 er cent above this
time last year. Many fear a repeti
tion of the disastrous year of 1872,
when two million dollars would scarce
ly cover the losses of our nouses. Any
.commodity has morn or less danger in
its folds when selling so far above its
average value.

anything nut pleasant.

and doing much damage. At the town
of Girard sovpr.teen houses were des
troyed and three persons lost their
Jives, and many were injured, most of

molished and five others badly shattered
including the railroad depot building.
Grass, hedges, grain nd trees were
pulled out of the ground, feathers
plucked from chickens, water blown
from ponds and houses torn to splint

width from three to fifty feet.
CKESCE.VT CITY WAGON BUAD
The action of the committee meet
ing, held at Woldq,on the 10th, is, in
our opinion, the Tirst practical siej)
towards the construction of this much
needed thoroughfare- A verv great
interest was taken in the proceedings,
and there was a general concurrence in
the wisdom of the course adopted. In
fact no other-course 'could be pursued.
The practicability of the route is ac
knowledged but no company can be in
corporated until the line of the road is
marked on the ground $nd a map filed
with the Board of Supervisors of Del
Norte county. When this is done we
can talk advisedly to our people, show
them the length and its cost; and what
assistance they render will be given
understandingly. It is not necessary
to give any more reasons for opening
this route, our people know its neces
sity well enough, and when the survey
is made they may prepare themselves
for a call for means to build the road.
It is possible that in addition to pri-
rrte subscriptions, Del 'Norte county
may build to the South ork of Smith
river a distance of eight , miles, which
will reduce the cost ofift&road iriater-
ially; but wo have nouihorjty for say
in, absolutely, that it will, There "is
also nltout three miles of new road in
Josephine county and jt is certain that
the people of that county would vote a
tax to build it At all evbnts tho out
look is most favorable and if our peo
ple choose to, they can soon inaugurate
a vnr3' different state of affairs and, if
they want to save themselves from
bankruptcy, they had better do it.

Ethics of Suicide. In a very in
teresting article on suicide the "Cali
fornian" gives a classified report of 8G
suicides in San Francisco in 1879, 7C
of whom were males and 10 females.
In the table relating to the.predispos
ins causes a large percent of pecuniary
difficulties is given as follows: Business
disappointments 3; destitution ll;gam
bling 5: domestic unhappiness 8; after
crime b; supposed incurable disease 14;
intemperance 20. It will be seen that
intemperance is the greatest predispos
ing cause and if it be properly connect
ed with destitution it adds another po
tent argument for temperance. Singu
larly, suiiide is on the increase espec
ially in large cities, and Prudon taking
note of the fact says: "Society through
every avenue is drifting to suicide."
Dr. Shurtleff of the State Lunatic
Asylum at Stockton says: "From my
own extensive observation, the pre
cepts, of the Christian religion, espec
ially as taught in their long established
forms, exert a strong influence even
in the disordered as well as the ration-J
al mind, in deterring from suicide,
those who put an absolute and sincere
trust in its faith.".

The trip from Fort Klamath to Des
kins' saw mill on the Upper Rogue
river was recently accomplished on
snow shoes by Amos Miller. When
he reached the "divide" of the Cas
cades, near Crater Lake, Mr. Miller
halted and rested on the limb of a tall
tree, and he judged that the snow in
that locality was still from 26 to 30

For Waldo. Messrs. J. Nunan, J.

ed for Josephine county on Thursday
last to represent Jackson county in the
wagon road consultation held at Wal
do last Saturday. Messrs. Johnson
and McCIellan are the representative s
from Del Norte county, who, we learn,
are fully prepared to furnish their por
tion of tho money required for a sur
vey of the road. After this is done
a company is to be organized and
work coinenced -at once. We hope to
fee all interested parties which means
every resident of Jackson, Josephine
and Del Norte counties take the
proper interest in this matter, by sub
scribing as liberally as possible when
the stock books are opened. Remem
ber that the success of the road de
pends on the amount of the subscrip
tions, and if the project proves a fail
ure at this time the residents of this
and Josephine counties will continue
their present complaint of hard times
for some time to come.
The Democrats have a host of candi

Da is, Morrison, MoCle.lkn, Field and
how tuany more w cannot telL Why
don't Oregon hava a man of her own,
instead of tramping off after soraf-lKxly
irr another State. There is Grover,
who is as good timber as any named,
but if he is unavailable, there is Lane
whose reputation is not wanting
throughout the length and breadth of
the country. It is a reflection on
Oregon that among her statesman
there is none to enter upon the na
tional stage.
