iiii'j4iijjaiJMiuim'iLfiiaaa's2ft J I WILLAMETTE FARMER: PORTLAND, OREGON DECEMBER 3, 1880 abounds in vvaLr-povvcr to drive tlio mills and factories of half tlie world. Thcso facts illus trate the possibilities of tho future. Oregon wool lias a character of its own now in the New York and Heston markets, and is fast takinc rank with the best fleeces that reach tho cast. Wo havo here sfcown the su perior quality of all Oregon products, and have only asserted facts that havu been proved ox cr and over again during the ten years we Jiavo conducted tho Wim.amf.ttf. Faiiviii. The reader who understands the influenco of ell mato on soil and products can readily sto w hy this excellence is attained. , OIIFOU.V AT THE CENTENNIAL. During tho Centennial Exposition at l'liila dolphia Oregon products vvero exhibited to good aihantago and astonished isitors from allparUof the world. Hon. A. J. Dufur, Commissioner for Oregon, secured for our sta to 33 prices for all our leading products, and in some respects carried oft more prizes tnan were awarded any other state. Oregon . .grain was exhibited in tho sheaf and In glass, and surprised all who understood its value. One Englishman declared tho kernels must havo been selected by hand, while his wife dryly remarked! " Hout monj they must have , had something prstty good to pick from." An experienced English wool-grower examined our wol samples carefully with a glass and remarked that it must lwo grown in a climato tint had no extremes of cold or heat, as its wS fiber was uniform and showed no weak spot " in all its length. Hon. M. Wilkins received first prize for a fleece of New-Oxfordshire that was classed as long wool. It was at the Ccn tonnial that woolen manufacturers wero first attracted by the superior quality of Oregon wools of all kinds. Against the 33 prizes awarded to Oregon California received but three, which were given on samples of native wines. Adjoining tho Oregon display was that of Wisconsin, which the agents of that State declared themsches asliamcd to exhibit in contrast. At tho l'aris Exposition, afiin, whero Mr. J. Van lleurdcn remained as Commissioner, tho Oregon display attracted great attention from citizens all countries, nml rciuived numerous prizes, ono general prt'zo being awarded to tho wholo as a state exhibit, while no other was granted to any State in the Union. There must be some great excellence in the products of a new and rcmoto region, liko ours, when it can cngaeo with so much glory to itself in competition whero the pro ' ducts of nil nations, subject to the moat per fect cultivation, competo in rivalry. What wo hao stated nlovo aro facts that tho rec ords of tho world's greatest industrial exposi tions bear out. 'I he premium paid for Oregon products gives a successful foundation for per manent wealth, and if only that much can hv saved as aceumuUtious, the agriculture of the country w ill bo enriched. Tho fact that good crops aro tho rule with us doubles tho induce ment wo oiler emigrants. Wo not only now compete with Ciliforni.t abroad but luvvo made successful exhibits of our products in the fairs of the Mechanic In stitute, annually held in San Francisco. Mr. 1'. Shculze, Uind Agent of the 0. t C It. It. Co.. has shown crcat skill and energy in col Iccting simples of our agricultural products to vxuinit (iiere, ami mry nuvu hwi. umj wtuutt od particular attention, but it is conceded havo excelled nil showings of tho kind mado from tho products of that State. President llnjcs chanced to bo in Portland in October, when our own .Mechanics lair was held, and showed the greatest interest in tho collection of cereals and grasses shown by Mr. Shculze, and was especially interested in . the splendid showing of fruits gathered and f exhibitedfurtheHUto Horticultural Society by its president, Mr. II. Miller. Ho weighted tho lioavy apples in his hand and otlcred a doubt if the flints ho saw could bo real. The sight of a single limb of Coo's Uoldun Drop l'luins, hung thickly with fruit as largo as eggs, was a sight ho had never seen equaled. Tho Pres ident showed more interest in fruits, vegeta bles anil cereals than in the rest of tho dis play. IIKALTIIIIILMM. Tho present census returns are not yet pub lio so as to make tho comparison of health w ith other States possible, but the census of 1870 showed the deatli-rato in Oregon to bo only 0.119 per cent, of the population, against anavrragnof almost twico that rato for tho whole United States. It wcro folly to claim that any region is blessed with immunity from disease, but wo can claim fur the wide scope of country embraced in Oregon and Washington that it is healthful in tho ox tromo, that malarial diseases exist only in a mild type, and then generally in river bottoms or valley lands, typhus aud typhoid fever never exist a an epidemic, and tho dry cli mato of Middle and ilisteru Oregon and Washington is renowned for tho curative ef fects upon rheumatism aud lung complaints. Wo claim enough when wo state these facts. Tho exemption from sudden changes consti tutes a prevent ivo against tho ills that prevail both in summer aud w inter in other countries. As wo havu already remarked, tho rains of w inter aro leeoguizcd as securing health, and considered tho most healthy scisou of tho year. i-oMMLim. or the coii'muia juvtii. Tho annual report of tho Portland Iloard of v Trade fir tho year ending Aug. 1st, 18S0, shows tiiQ exports of our region for Uiat time amounted to fifteen millions of dollars, and that too when the rust in spring wheat caused a loss in the Willamette Valley of not less than two millions and a half of dollars. The exports were as follows! Wheat and llonr fU.CCKI.l.'.O Canned and lucked salmon 'J,7!l,8lft Coil and lumber from Coos Hy . . . 'J3.1,7H3 Wool 2.I.W.U7 C. ld and silv cr from mines 1)00,000 Cattle dnvcinast S.'SI.OOO UaU, potatoes, lions, luuioer, nines, etc. tout to ban Francisco... . 1,523,370 SI5,OI5,2.-.l If tho vvlitatjielilof 1SS0 can be sold at the same prico that was received for that of 1870, the total proceed will I over $9,000,000 net to tho farmers of the country. When we compare tho population of thce two States with the total of the United States, and rec ollect that the products of Puget Sound and some other pvrts of this territory are not in cluded, tho result is really astonishing. We represent only ono two-hundrcth part of the people of the mtionj our exports equal f fiO for every individual, and at tho same rate the to , tal export, of tho nation would IwSJ.tXXJ.OOO,- 000 above the products used for homo con sumption, and that would not include manu factured goodi; also wo must remember that wo havo fed and in part clothed ourselves he- " sides. Our shipmeuts and exports have only made a commencement. Our exiwrts of breadstuff to Europe have increased from less than 200.000 centals in 1871 to more than 5,000,000 centals in 1880. It is only within five years past that direct commerce Iwtween European ports and the Columbia river has as sumed any Importance. It is safo to sty that this commerce will incrcaso in magnitude rap idly, anil when railroad transit is perfected across tho continent a trade with Ash will do velopo that will build up a great metropolis here to reap its advantages. To ono who has grown gray watching the slow progress of events for over thirty years, the proipect of tho future of this country seems wonderful. Very soon wo shall see the doors thrown wide open, aud direct railroad connection will bring tho Pacifio Northwest within easy reach of tho older world, and our climato and resources will bring the old world thronging to our portals. STATE NEWS. Mr. Washburn, of lloscuurg, paid 72 cents for 10,000 bushels of vvhent, Jan. Stewart, of Jacksonville, care lessly shot a pistol ball through his right hand.

Attempt la Wrrrk n rntsrngrr Train on the O. R. A .. , Koulr. Railroads havo been in operation in this county, says tho Inland Empire, for upward of ten years, and up to Tuesday night of this week no attempt has ever lceii mado to wreck a train. Hut on the night in question occuncd ono of tho most dastardly outrages ever attempted in any community. The east ward liound train was late, and by the rule of the road, was compelled to lio over at Cclilo until tho down train from lllalock had arrived. Tho down train camo tearing alone as fast as tho newly laid road would permit, when a loud crush revealed tho fact that something had befallen tho new jiasseiigcr coach which has scarcely been running a month. Tlio engineer ktopjed the cugiie and the conduc tor ran tlio cars back a stiort distance, and hero was an lrni rail lirmly driven into the pround slanting so as to rako the eastward bound train and ditch tho engine. Had not the Cascades lioat been belated tho train would havo been "snagged" and the engineer killed, in all probability, Tho perpetrators of such outrages should bo muted over a slow fire, lor hanging is too good for them. When this paper, ten mouths ago, gave Tho Dalles people warning that tho "dives" were shelter ing and harboring tho most dangerous crimi nals on tho coast, wo wero laughed at as an alarmist. Now that two such men havu carved each other to dtath liko wild boars; and a fiendish attempt has been made to wreck a train for tho purposo of robbery, people be gin to eo w hat wo are talking about. A re ward of ."00 is ollered for tho arrest and con viction of the guilty parties. Tho elegant coach is badly riddled up, but thanks to the Lord no bones who broken. Should the per petrators bo caught, it w ill bo a long rope and a short shift fur them. Accidentally Shot.

The Tribune has a Washington special giving a hopoful viovv of tho southern situation Irom Jiiugo iocrano, of Georgia, who thinks the South has chiefly fricnillv words for Garfield, is disposed to bo reasonable in all matters henceforth under discussion. Tho South, he says, makes no claim to recognition in tlio Cabinet, sue is steadily growing local lit sentiment and get tins more to lovo tho Constitution and (Tov- eminent. Tho Southern people are fond of their memories, of their history and of tho aims of their section, but they daily sco more of tho loizio of events, that loyalty means prosperity, that sectionalism mesns ruin. They grow wise and tho day is not distant when the solid South will ucuissoivcti niiu uie loyalty of the South bo as warm as New England's. To accomplish this, Garfield w ill not make tho mistake of his predecessor in ac cepting lip services for honest patriotism. The masses of the pcoplo in Georgia are in ac cord with tho principles of tho Republican party with respect to tho tariir and internal improvements. in distinction to this reseat picture Hogcr (1. Alills, ot Texas, says the Democracy failed on account of fulling to meet aud com bat tlio protective tariir isitio and all protec tion of monopolies. They pursued penny wise economy, crinrjlcd tho Government by cutting down petty salaries, etc. The fight on the tariiT question has only just begun and the South will remain solid. States rights will continue to combat centralization anil the futuro of tho Democratic party is assured. Jar l.nulil'a Threat. Nmv Youk, Nov, !27. The Tribune, Jay Gould's paper, saysi If the Central Pacific does not umto with the Union Pacific no more Western railroads will be built, but if it docs unite, then tho lltirlinnton road will be built through to tho Pacihu coast and another will be built by tlie Atclilson company to mo Pacific.

Jttstico Strong, ef the United States Supremo Court, will retire Irom tlio bench bctoro tho 1st ot January, and Justico Hwsyne intends to retire as soon as Strong's successor shall have been con firmed by tho Senate. They are both eligi ble to retirement on full pay, each being over VU years oi age, ami n.avo served ten) curs. They cannot both lcavo the bench at the simo time wi'liout breaking tho constitutional quo rum for tho Supreme Court, which is six of the total nine, because Justices Cllilord and Hunt are ach physically, if not mentally, un able to perform any indicia! Ialor. Altfiouch pernanuntly disabled, neither Cllilord nor Hunt is yet willing to resign, tho first liav ing long ago declared that lie would not io tire unless ho could bo succeeded by a Demo crat. and Hunt not lieini: vet cliciblo tore tircment with pay. If they do not resign, or II Justico Hunt is not provided lor by a special act of Congress, there is considerable firoluvbility that a law will be passed profili ng for tho appointment of two additional members of tho Supremo Court, whoso place shall not bo filled until tho total number is reduced agsin to nine. This would givo tlio Court its full complement of membership. both before and after tho death or retirement of Clifford and Hunt. It is prao ically certain that ex-Senator Stanley latthows will suc ceed Justico Swayne, and it is for this reason that ho has withdrawn from tho contest for tho Ohio Senatorship. t.raut al luirrli.

Gradually it began to dawn on tho callers that they were not pleasant com panion, and they crept silently away, hoping as they went that they had not intruded.
