Editor Farmer: In addition to my card In the Statesman, I will say, and give rea sons why many businessmen bore have got down on me. All men that make radical changes are subject to get a few enemies by some narrow minded people who don't keep time with the wants of the great State. For inslanco some of oar merchants exacted an enormous protlt on staplo goods so aa to make three to six cents per pound on sugar. I brought tlieso prices down to a reasonable amount bo that the Fox could live and not kill the Gooso; making only about one cent per pound at retail, and one half by the kegi while heretofore many farmers objected to come to Salem and would go to tho other towns to buy their good, ami clnlmod that they have done better. My opponouts would not say that I have been to work for them bringing tho trade here, telling goods at such low figures thituo one would under sell me. For instance, I will name B Bros,, siuue they have adopted my plan and commenced to pay tanners for their produce as much hero as it Is worth in Portland, and they have commenced to m11 sugar and oth er staples at a living profit, Hinco when their trade has had a rapid Increase so that It takes three extra men's help to do their business. I am not Jealous lot all business men look to tholr own interest and do likewise, and tbey will not have lime to meddle with others, and have plenty to do. A year ngo many emigrants came to this state and they objected to investing money here because they lose too much on green backs. To encourage Immigration I took greenbacks at par. Last Su minor tho Almighty Trade Dollar came in use, what did home of our business men do but get out cards printed : " Trade Dollars taken only at 90 ceuts" and posted them iu front of their places of business. No one except the writer took ihem at par. Now, whllo tho writer N trying to induce tho people to trade at Salem, his opponents are trying to drive thorn away, In refusing to tuko good hrd silver dollars for their goods. The trade dollar is worth 81 OUi In gold, yet they claim that it will break up the writer In Hik ing them at pur. I mention theua facta to show iIih public that whllo lum wojklng for my ow u Interests jet I do what I C3n to chock monopoly uud am with tho plowman, llioiuboreraud inanufwturer, iind you will find tno at at all times working fir tuo boit interests ol the Slate.

S. F. Letter from Alsea Valley. Aisea VAiiLKV, Dee. 10, 1871! En. FAitMEtt: While the people in other parts of tho State aro still won dering who will bo the next President the people of this valley are deter mined to accept the situation, and are absorbed in their own affairs. Wo have been enjoying beautiful weather for tho past three weeks. Tho sun lias shone brightly every day, with frosty nights and rather cold mornings. The lowest tho mercury has been is 23 degrees abovo zero. The soil in this valley is very productive; wheat, llax, and all other crops do well, and vege tables of all kinds aio produced in abundance. There is plenty of brush and timbered land to bo taken up which will make desirable homes for those who are willing to work nnd wait a reasonable time. I believe this val ley is peculiarly favored in regard to health; I do not think a healthier place could bo found in the State. There is plenty of trout in tho streams and sal mon in tho winter time. David Rimji.i:. Douglas County. S. K. Raymond writes as follows from Oakland, Dec. 22: " The weather is fine for tho farm ers, and they aro making good uso of it in this valley. There will be more acres sown this year than over before, nnd in very good shape. Stock aro do ing very well on grass, and tho farmers feel very much elated over tho riso in wheat and tho prospect of a very mild winter. The ,liealth is very good in this valley this winter, and especially in Oakland." A Mammoth Ox. Tho Polk county giant ox, raised by Nelson Nealiy, half short horn Durham, seven years old, 111 hands hleh girt ten feet and one inch weighing 3,500 pounds, said to be the largest ox ever on ex hibition in California, lias been purchased by Mr. A. H. Johnson, the wholesale butch er and packer, and will be slaughtered lor Centennial Christmas market. Orcgonian, CENTAUR L.INIMENTS.
