MORE MONEY A SUGGESTION.
If the government can safely issue an
unlimited amount of irredeemable paper
currency and loan it to the people- on
the subtreasury plan or in any other
way, why should two per cent, or any
other rate of interest be charged? Why
not loan it to the people free? If
it be a good thing to place money in the
hands of the people at a reduction of six
to eight rer cent, below current rates, it
surely would be better to wipe out the
interest altogether ; and if not why not?
The coat to the governmet of the paper,
engraving and printing could be met by
issuing enough greenbacks to cover it.
If the printing &c, of a few billions of
paper money should cost the govern
ment, say a quarter of a million let the
government simply print a quarter of a
million extra and the cost ih met. If
the two per cent, interest is intended
to help pay the running expenses of the
government, why not issue paper money
to meet these running expenses and
thereby still further lighten the burdens
of the borrowing classes? In fact if irre
deemable paper money is as good a
thing as it is cracked up to be, there is
no sense in the world in the government
taxing the people a dollar for its run
ning expenses. Just issue enough green
backs and the thing is done. In good
sooth there is no limit to what might be
done in this line. If we want a navy
and coast defenses just issue enough
greenbacks to pay for them and there
- you are. If our rivers and harbors need
opening and improvment, let the "work
be done and pay for it in greenbacks. It
would not then matter a picayune
whether the next congress was a "billion
dollar congress' or a ten billion one;
for not a dollar of the cost would come
out of the people's pocket. There would
be no necessity" -for politicians to lie
awake nights, under - the dread of a
bi nkrupt treasury. JiiBt set thegovern
men printing presses agoing and fill her
up from cellar to dome and all danger
from that direction would be averted.
DUEUR.
A trip to Dufur last Saturday found
the spring grain looking fine, and every
where the promise of an abundant crop.
The charming little town is now look
ing its best as the shade and fruit trees,
planted only a few 'ears ago! embower
many of the dwellings in thickets of
leafy verdure. Fruit treess of all kinds
are groaning under a weight of fruit that
gives ample proof, if proof were needed,
of the excellent adaption of the bench
lands of that neighborhood to fruit cul
ture, while the gardens are filled with a
luxuriant growth of all kinds of vegetable
plants. . :
Much of this is doubtless owing to irri
gation as the Dufur water works afford
an abundant supply of this fluid for all
needed purposes. These water works,
simple and inexpensive as they are, . are
the' pride of the town, and the special
pride of their architect and designer L.
J. Klinger. And well they may for
- they are as cheap and durable as they
are simple and effective.
Up to within a few weeks ago, two
large wind mills forced the water of the
creek up to a reservoir on an elevation
back of the town. Now the mills are
"for sale cheap", laud a little overshot
wheel, pix feet in diameter by five and a
v..,. half in width, which, together with the
pump, cost the town only a hundred and
fifty dollars, does the work and does it
more effectually. The capacity of the
pump is, 112,000 gallons in twenty-four
hours, but the wheel seems to have
- power sufficient to drive a pump of
twice that capacity. The water used to
drive the wheel is taken out of the mill
race of the Dufur flouring mill and raised
to the necessary elevation by a short
flume, and after it is discharged from
! the wheel it returns again ' to the race.
A close fitting drum, covering the front
of the wheel, holds the water in the
elbow-shaped buckets till it is exhausted
below and a flexible gate regulates the
supply of water to the wheel. The runr
ning expenses are simply' the wear and
tear of machinery, and as. there is
scarcely any to either wear or tear the
expenses may be placed at nil.
' An invitation to visit the orchard and
garden of Dr. Vanderpool brought us
into a perfect wilderness of fruits and
berries and vegetables. The Doctor has
. a great deal of something and appar
ently a little of everything. There are
pears, apples, plums, peaches, prunes,
- cherries, mulberries, gooseberries, cur
rants, blackberries, raspberries, grapes,
besides a new species which he calls
Japanese wine berries derived from an
original plant that cost its importer the
sum of $1,000 for the single plant. The
rapid growth of some of the trees in this
young orchard is very remarkable. The
Doctor pointed our attention to a cherry
.tree of the Black Kepublican variety
which has attained a heighth of seven
teen feet in three years, with a width of
branches ten feet in diameter.
By a very easy transition we made
our way from the orchard to the labora
tory of the S. B. Manufacturing Co. To
one who remembers the time when Dr.
Vanderpool used a small pot on his kit
chen stove to heat his preparations, the
sight was indeed a surprise. Now sev
eral large kettles, heated by a furnace,
have taken the place of the stove-pot,
and no less than seven different rooms
are required for conducting the business.
Here we met the business manager Mr.
A. J. Brigham who, less than three
years ago bought a half interest in the
business for $200. This was before the
stove-pot was discarded. Then the sale
of the medicines wss confined "nearly 1
together to Dr. Vanderpools old patients
and acquaintances, and the company
has custo ers from San Francisco to
Baltimore, Maryland, and from North
ern Washington to Southern California,
and the medicines have the best testi
mony any proprietory medicines can
have, and that is, they are better liked
at home, and where they have been
longest in use, than anywhere else.
What Can be Made of it.

The secretary of state of Arkansas has
written to Hon. A. Bush, of Salem, deny
ing the story published in nearly all the
republican papers that the portrait of
George Washington had been removed
from the hall of representatives, and that
of Jefferson Davis substituted in its
stead. He says Washington's , picture
still hangs over the speaker's seat, and
the portraits of Grant and Lincoln adorn
the hall, and adds : "The people of this
state have been abused, maligned, and
slandered about this matter. If some
body desires to witness the devotion of
the people of Arkansas to the memory of
Washington, let 250,000 men attempt to
come and take his picture from its place,
in the hall of the house of - representa
tives." We are informed that a man is travel

About the year 1850, after1 the gold
fever had broken out on this coast, Isaac
Newton Terpenning emigrated to Cali
fornia from Addison, Lenawee county,
Michigan. About ' twenty years after
wards he was still living in; California,
but for the past twenty years his people
in the east have lost all traces of him.
A sister whoeejaddress is Scholles Ferry,
Oregon, would be pleased to hear froin
any one who could give any assurance
that he is living or dead.
James Underhill of Boyd gave the
Chronicle office a pleasant call today.
