IMPORTANT LETTER FROM S.
FRIEDMAN.
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

Our now Arm intends to niako up goods

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."
