Tlie True Source of VaHIi.
13 at a few years ago, since the dis
covery of Boise, we recollect having
been terribly " riled" because of a
statement in the Scientific American
that gold mining, provided tho metal
is used fur coin, adds nothing to the
wealth of mankind. "We could not
sec 5t in that light, perhaps, because
' 1 '
Oregon had very little else than gold
dust to ship. We cotdd not bear the
. , . . A .
idea, of sei-ino-. nnniw. hv. rpnorts or
idea of seeing, annually, reports of
our expoits in small figures; believed
that the more such wealth we sent
away the greater were our riches;
what folly. But all at once it came
to us in the light set forth by the
Scientific American, and wc were
really obliged to admit that our gold
shipments were actual evidences of
the poverty of the country. The
State, at that time manufactured
nothing, so to speak. Our clothing,
in fact the brooms we swept our
floors with, were imported, and the
people in common " lived from hand
to mouth."
We hare always had a great de
sire to assist in building up the State,
wished to make it permanently pros
perous, and this desire lias oftentimes
been taken advantage of by specula
tors, whose plans we have puffed
without stint, utterly regardless of
tho hereafter, thinking wc were doing
tha public a service. It is perhaps
just as well for the State that the
hundreds of schemes for developing
quartz ledges in the country were
tried and tried effectually if they
have most signally failed, generally,
people can now abandon them, and
turn their attention to something
else.
About the time the Oregon City
Woolen Milling Company was in--corporated
a new era began to d uvn
upon Oregon. The manufacturing
interests then commenced to develop
themselves, and steadily they have
been gaining ground ever sin?e, until
now we not only have woolen goods
to ship, but very many other articles.
Oregon is no longer dependent upon
importations for machinery; iron;
salt; brooms; leather; sash, blinds
and door?; cement; paper; soap; a
variety ct agricultural implements,
etc., etc., and yet there is much that
is now largely imported that should
be manufactured at home, as we have
here tho foundation, materials, and
ample water power, together with
mechanics and artisans en:ial to any
the world can produce. There is
probably no State in the Union that
can compare with Oregon on the
score of natural advantages, and
hope to see them developed in
tar, in a ratio corresponding
we
fa
iih
the past iV.v years.
We fully agree with the Scientific
American now in fact havo fur
some time that if a man owns a
steam engine worth 810,000, the en
gine forms this portion cf the wealth
of the world. And if the man de
votes his surplus labor, besides that
which is necessary to procure a liv
ing, or expend 3 his surplus profits in
constructing a second engine of equal
efficiency and value, he adds another
$10,000 to the wealth uf the world.
But if he expends the same amount
of surplus labor or promts in simply
adding to the weight of his engine,
without increasing its efficiency or
usefulness in any respect, hedoesnot
by the operation augment the wealth
of himself, of the community or of
mankind. Believe that a man who
becomes rich by manufacturing or
trading, generally increases the
wealth of the country and of the
world, to an extent at least equal to
his own accumulations, but the la
bors cf the gold-digger add nothing
to the wealth cf mankind, inasmuch
as thev increase the wci-rht of the
currency without increasing its value.
Wholesale Slander. The editor
of the Marin, Cah, Journal, comment
ing on the Wine Grower's report
says:
" Perhaps these sr.ge wine grow,
ers think the people don't know
that nearly every proprietor of a
winrproducing vineyard of Napa
and Sonoma is a drunkard , and that
in some instances the wife and chil
dren merit the same unlovely title."'
Now if this Marin county man
will step up to Judge Evey, at
Calistoga. or call upon Frank Kel
logg, at St. Helena, we vetK-.ire to
say they will show him quite to tho
contrary, and prove that he has
been guilty cf wholesale slander.
Lost That. lu compliance v. ith
instructions from the General in
Chief, the territory ceded by Russia
to the United States will constitute a
Military District, and will be at

Corn in Oregon. The Oregonian

Mr. II. Conn, near Roscburg, which

Never heard of it. Capt. CranJall
makes a heavy bluster because he

Perhaps you can borrow Sam Clark's

apparent. There are many kinds of
" rare birds" in Oregon.
Iiailroad to Yaquina.Thi Gazette
states that articles of incorporation
have been filed to organize a company
for the survey and final construction
of a railroad between the Willamette
Valley and the coast. We presume
it will tap the " main trunk" at Cor
vailis; but what is it expected to do
when the through line is completed
The FcviUs Mail. The Gazette in
its last issue reads a lecture to the
tale-bearer and slanderer. The arti
cle is right enough, but the character
cf the local meddlers to whom it
addressed is generally so well known
that ;:ine times out of ten nobody
would b : . vc him or her under oath.
So w hat s the use ?
Not the Man. The Gazette says
that the street preacher Taylor, now
in London, is not he who instituted
the Good Templar order in Oregon.
The report, as circulated, is calculated
to iriuro an innocent person. Rev.
G. B. Taylor, who is doing good ser
vice in California, granted the first
charter to a lodge ia this State.
The Grant. A passenger by pro
peller Grant, when she broke down
a few days ago, says Capt. Fisher
of the Ranger charged the passengers
for bringing them on to Portland.
Some paid and some would not.
We think Capt. Kern better throw
the Grant in the i iver if he cannot
G!l his contracts with her.
Ia Ajjliclion. We learn by Port

New Courage. A writer in the
Albany Democrat appeals to his party
friends to take fresh courage, having
been told by a departed spirit, thro'
Mad. Foyc, that if he, the said depart
ed spirit, was again in the flesh he
would still be a democrat.
lie moved. L. P. Fisher, our San
Francisco advertising agent, has tak
en up his quarters at the new Mer
chant's Exchange on California street,
room No. 21. Ho would probably
have no objections to receiving a call
from any web foot who happened in.
Oregon Institute. Mr. Gustavus
Ilines corrects two mistakes with re
gard to the above institution. lie
says, that although mainly sustained
by missionaries, it was never a mis
sion school, as has been stated ; that
instead of having been opened 21
years ago, according to the Institute
records it was opened in the fall of
1SU 23 years ago.
Editorial Changes. We omitted
our regrets last week at parting with
Bro. McPherson, who has retired
from the Unionist. Mr. Morgan
now has control of that establishment
and we wish him abundant success.
Mr. Upton has yielded the tripod to
Mr. J. W. Johnson in the Courier,
and associated himself with Mr. A.
Noltner, who embark together in the
Capital City Chronicle, soon to appear
in Salem.
Enforcing the Law. Sheriff Stit'
zel, cf Multnomah County, has con
cluded that the chiuese. within his
jurisdiction, have evaded the road tx
law about long enough, hence he
has brought them up to taw as
prisoners, and set them to work.
The law provides that in case of
refusal cf Chinamen to pay their
polNtaxes, $5 each, they may be
arrested and made to work it out
on the public lords, at the rate of
a 0 cents per day. This law has
not heretofore been strictly enforced.
Camping at the Fair. A Califor
nia paper suggests the idea of neigh
bors clubbing together and putting
up temporary shanties on the grounds
partitioned off for family occupation
during the State Fair. The plan is
a good one to adopt in Oregon. It
will be but little work to put up such
shanties as will answer ail purposes,
and there need be no loss: or waste of
lumber, which will be just as good as
new for farm purposes after the fair.
J. Ross Brown Wc think now,

Some object to his having appointed
Colonel Denr.ison to collect statistics

Colonel Dennison v.-ill prostitute his

tioneerinjr atraiust us. He is not of
our school of polities, nevertheless he
is very much a gentleman and ac

Lccl-s Faith. The Mbar.y- Jour
nal seems no way inclined to
the Oregon Central Railroad, and
thereat gives n copious vomit, on the
20th, of all that has been done. The
J f era Id rather takes the same sub
ject as an emetic. In our wav of
tninking we shall shortly perceive by
mental vision enough to form an idea
of the qualities of the ankmal, and if
it proves good, or worser, then there
will be time enough to throw him
up. Nobody's pocket book has been
sounded yet, very many fathoms,
and we think if an effort was to be
made that way nothing but sand
would be found on the bottom. It
is not in Oregonians, generally, to
launch out big where dollars and
cents are at stake, if they know them
selves, anyhow.
Immigrants. Several teams, with
families direct from the Mississippi
Valley, have entered this part of
Oregon within a few days past.
There is no part of the whole Pa
cific coast so inviting to immigrants
as this Valley, and the Counties
along .the Columbia river west of
the Cascade mountains. This the
immigrant generally finds out, but
not in all cases, until they have
purchased dearly the experience that
teaches it. We le.-.rn from Mr.
Chenoweth, who has lately returned
from California, that there is a very
large class of persons there who
desire to come to Oregon and set
tle from what knowledge they have
been able to pick up about the
State, who would most certainly
come if they could obtain possess
ion of the indisputable facts we
could give them relative to the wealth
of this region. We deeply sympa
thized with a depleted treasury, but
we hope a few hundred will bo
appropriated next year to lay such
facts before tho world broadcast, gra
tuitously. A Generous Act Applauded. Or.e
of the Government expedition of
Capt. Kelley, which passed through
this city a few weeks ago en route
to Fort Klamath, writes to the
Register from which we extract the
following: I witnessed an example
of geuerosity whil passing thrpugh
Oregon City which is worthy of
perpetuation. The day was exces
sively hot, in fact a very "singer,"
and being the first day of our march
we were so hurried we could not
pause to got a sip of water, when
you may imagine our pleasure at
being called from behind the train
to the fence of an orchard, by an
old lady, without any protection on
her gray head to shield it from
the sun, and supplied with a num
ber of mellow, juicy apples.- As
I to k ther.i from her hand I felt
an admiration for that woman s-.rjh
as i never ftlt for a

SPECIAL NOTICES.
Smuggling. When a good article
that eoraes under the bead of import dues is
sold for less than duties, it is surmisable that
it has been brought into tho country sv.r
rcpticiously. David Cole of .Sa!e:n did not
smuarsfle bis stock, but lie can soli stoves,
etc., cheaper than any other man in Oregon,
lie does do it aud intends to keep on do
ing it.
"The Colors for Me." That is
what every lady says, who has used the Fam
ily l)ye Colors of IIowc & Stevens. The
fact plainly is that no other dyes have the
slightest show when these are about.
Sold by Dell & 1'arkcr, Oregon City, and
by Snath & Davis, Agents for Oregon.
Dr.. IIos'i f. iter's Stomach Pit
tehs. The operation of this palatable rem
edy upon the stomach, liver and excretory
organa is singularly soothing and conserva
tive. It regulates, recruit and purities
them. Dyspepsia in all its forms yields to
its control and invigorating properties, and
it is recommended to mothers, enfeebled bv
the cares and duties of maternity, as the
safest and best remedy they can "probably
use. In all the crisis of female bfe it will be
found eminently useful, r.nd elderly persons
will derive much more beneiit from it than
from ordinary stimulants. Sold bv the drug
gists and dealers evervwhere.
