may do well to aid, and Imi led lu u path

have a natural Jcalouay of paying trib

pcoplo In laying oil' the -political joke
icJoryc3 from nil tho world a tribute of
hearty pmlae.
Only a few ilnys atneo a gentleman
mado the remark In our prmvico that
the people of Oregon were rlpo lor polltl-
cM Independence, hnd It was only itccea-
nary; that sonio atartlng-polnt should be
offered, for popular action to be baaed
upon, to lay tho foundation for a revolu
tion that should spread through tho en
Uretitatc,. Wo arrcpt this call from the
ttirawrs, rrieohatilca, nnd laboring men of
Douglas county us nn auspicious omen,
the cloud no bigger thnn a mau'a hand,
wlileh must spread out tho whole polit
ical sky and furnish au example which
shall become universal, nnd extend be
yond the were questions of county notii-
nations. -.
Already the political tools on both

tcrsuitcd, as'probably I theclluialc, and
the low ratonf labor In India precludes

needed two 'million grain sacks, worth
about 1300,000, nnd wo might proflt''by

should not then Import weevils with the
grain packs which ait) sent us from 1,1 r-
erpool, ns Is now the ense,
Tho iiiamifact'ure.of 'bags and bagging
also suggests a very Important question 1
Cnn wo not accomplish shipment In bulk
by sonic means, and so save tho producer
this tax of seven and a half cents en each
bushel of wheat willed Is exported from
our Slate,?
Candlis nre successfully manufactured
In California, ami the manufacture In
creases because, tho material for It be
comes moro abundant. Docs not this af
ford auftlcieut encouragement for Oregon
to ootnmetieo tho bttsl ncsa'of candle man
ufacture? Certainly wo can do li ns well
ns our neighbors, and hud much better
make up the raw material nt homo
than send It to California and jiurUmso
candles mado In that Btatc.
California packers can nil sorts of 'fish,
flesh, fruits, and vcgctnbl6s, which' can
be procured on land or on water, nnd the
Importations aro coullned solely to arti
cles that nre not produced there. Wo
can follow that example In some extent
and be profited thereby, but instead of
that we ptirrhaso canned fruits and vege
tables that nro raised In California, which
Is not the moat thrifty way of doing bus
iness. l
The Importation ef boot and shoos de
creased In California, from 60,63) pack
ages In 1872, to 3Jj0u7 patknges In 1873;
tne reason or wlileli was that the home
manufacturer pt boots and shoes hfs very
much restricted importations.' Many of
us nre shod with the Callfornla-mado
article, and do not, know it, and are gain
ers thereby. , A few years ngo California
bough t.Orvgon, leather at a good prlco,
but now we ship our hides to Ban Krnu
Cisco nnd have nbanironed the buslneas
of tanning leather. Tho,uidcs of nil this
upier oouulry are shipped abroad, and
two golem Jiujiuaries, will of which had

Whether or lie the soli of Oregon Is
suited to the raising of lh,e sugar beet, we
cannot say, as the experiment has never
been tried. Trance succeeds admirably
In making beet sugar, nnd two refineries
aruntwwrk In California making beet
sugar with soino success. Wo can afford
to watch tho aooeis of thoso last, and If
tno nusiuess siicceiMS in cuiirbmla It will
commend Itself 11s north trying in our

Is only a very) short time agoslnconny
one haNlng an' Interest 'In tho lives of

Tcryshort tlmo a bund ofi flvolind some
tlm64 moro would bo seen mnklng their
way to soma convenient farm whero
sheep are kept.' The! next day we aro
not surprised to hear tliat there was an
angry farmer lu fal direction, to bo fol
lowed,! perhaps, the .next day, 1 or soon
after, with tho same act of circumstances,
In a different dlrtctlon'-tho dogs going
as far as flvo miles out at town aud wor
rying a dozen sheen; In ouo caso wo
heard of. 'NowVo hear of a parly losing
a dog valued at one hundred dollars. Of
couno this now dead property has never
contributed, anythng , to ' support tho
laws of tho laud, and inlfils fact tho
shccp-rnlser who pays tnxes on tho valuo
of his sheep has Just cause of complaint.
"Wo.know of parties llvlngt-ar Salem
who would gladly embark in the busi
ness of breeding and keeping Improved
sheep, hut aro deterred from it by tho
destructive, prowling dogs.' We know of
other pnrtlcs who can only pursue tho
breeding of Improved sheep by keeping a
lot of fierce, Well-trained hounds to hunt
arid drive ofi' marauding dogs of tho
town. W suppose the' same general
state of facts exists near every town and
vuiBgu iu me, Dune, a weit ,aa in many
of the most thickly settled wheat-raising
district, In some of which so many dogs

tenant farmer that thoso who would
keep" sheep for 'the double nuroose of
clcanlns; thalr fallows In 'anmmr ,H
consuming their; straw auiiiiough grain
III winter, are discouraged from doing so
by tho number of destructive dogs.
Ja there no remedy for this stato of
things? We believe tbero Is, and that
tho time and 'circumstances are now ap
proaching which will favor such a courao
of leglalatlon fer thodlmlulahlugof the
dog uulaanco as will be encouraging to
the development of ahecp-brcodlng and
wool-growing, soon destined to bo If not
already the leading stock Interest In
