SjIpui Grance liud an inteiVitiutf
i mcetintr last fiaturdny with fair atttfnd-
f nce, and tlifee .initiation).. The tariff
' w.ii set as a ouestion for jjonoral UPiuto,
; but wa not reached, so will bS dincfi
edatthe next meetintr. the first Katur-
day in February. Co-operation was the
i geuocnl subject, which nrow uron a re
lrt made by Mr. Dim CurV in relation
to starting a giange supply store here
at Salem, Many interesting utement8
ware, sude. It was shown that the
Bttuneae Department of Linn Cdunty
Granar& had &U1TA.1 farmers there over
$10,000 during th past year. Also
that a Grange co-operative store wa
started, at McMinmille in 1882 with
?S10 capital that was afterwards in
creased to $1,100. No dividend was
mado but stock accumulated on profits
and members were creditod their propor
tion. After twenty months the concern
inventoried $3,300, just twico its original
stock being added. The earnings were
200 per cent, in twenty months, or 10 per
cent, a month. It was shown that com
petition with tho East was bringing
down tho cost of goods.
Discussion took in National Grango
matters and Congressional doing?, gen
eral politics, etc. Portland was attend
ed to as a great theater for corruption,
and tho danger from that source was
plainly discussed, making it necessary J
f, . : , ,,, ,, , I
mat mc country suouiti ue on iue uiert
to avoid and defeat the machination of
Portland politics.
Tho importance of having our rivers
and harbors improved was discussed, as
that would make tho whole country in
dependent of monopoly. It is interest
ing to us, and gratifying to us ns woll,'
to bo able to point out the fact that tlio
Vh.lami:tte Faiimfk has always taken
right ground, and taken it firmly, with
regard to tho corrupt influeuco of Port
land politics and tho improvement of
the rivers to make thorn navigable. How
any journal could, as a Portland daily
did, asscit thnt building the canal and
locks at tho Cac.ides is not needed and
is a waste of money, is more than we
can appreciate. The great need of our
State is to havo navigation made possi
ble from the ocean to the uttermost
point to which steamboats can run, and
if it takes twenty-five millions of dollars
to do it tho money cannot be better ex
pended in the interest of the nation and
of humanity.
Saloni Grange is increasing it num
bers, and also increasing its intei est. Tho
Grange can bo very serviceable if all in
telligent farmers will take hold of it and
lend thoir good will, good judgment and
good efforts to achieve what is possible
The country at large can be reasonably
benefitted and tho condition of all pro
ducers improved if farmers will join the
Grange and do all they cau to realize its
unselfish objects.
Installation or Oswego Grange.

At- tho January meeting Oswego
Grange held a public installation, and

seemed to enjoy thenihelve"'. Brother
Kiclmrdson thought that-the enic nf !

s-o that when one got sick its owner
would know' what to do for it, or to
whom to apply foraihice. BiittoUrange
was leported to be in a nourishing con

on an application for memborr-hips re
ceived. Many speeches wore made, and
all seemed encouraged in tho work of
the order. Tho programmo for next

"I've scon a good many wonderful
things in my travel"," said John iregg,
commercial traveler, "but the Walled
Lake of Iowa rather lays over every
thing 1 ever f aw. Just imagine a body
of water, covering nearly .iOCKl aereH,
with a wall built up all around it, not a
tone in which can tc less than juu
pounds in weight, and some as heavy as
three tons, and yet there's not a stone to
be found within ten miles of the lake.
Tlic wall is tn feet high, about fifteen
feet wide at tho bottom, and may be
five on top. The country is prairie, land
for miles around, exoept a heit ot Heavy
timber that encircles tho lako. The
timber is oak, and it is plain that the
tree were planted there. They are very
large. The belt is probably uaii a mile
wide. Tho water in the lake is twenty
five feet deep, as co'd as ico and as clear
&i crystal. What I would like to know
is, v,ho built that wall, and how did they
hold the water back while they were
building it? And how did they cart
those iinmcn'ie ftonea tor ten niucj'f ji

Coastwlso Farming.
Tho Seattlo Herald recently had tho
following remarks upon farming lands
located near tido watT, which so hearti
ly meet our approval that wo tako ploas
uro in rcpioducing them :
If a proper course had boon pursued,
if the agricultural lands of King county
had been spiod out by competent men
and properly mapped and listed, and
brought to tho attention of tho homo
hunters who havo pas-sod through this
city and gono on to other localities, King
"' lJ ' ou "ilY "u !""" ,"
"f tbons.mds of dollar richer nt. the end
of this year than it will be. And what
is more, the apparent accretion of wealth
would havo lepresentcd only a fraction
of tho real increase. Tho lands of the
Paget Sound basin, which arc suscepti
ble of being converted into farms, aie
of that nature which, with ordinary care
and and intelligent cultivation, increase
rather than diminish in value with each
susccod.ng.ycar. Ae a nritter of ccu.-sc
these lands can bo starved or butchered
into sterility. So can tho most feftilo
deltas of the world. This is neither hero
nor there. Wc are talking about sensi
ble farmers and sensible farming. Pew
and far bctivcon on this earth's surfneo
arc tho localities where commerce and
manufacturics can bo fostered at the ex
pense of agriculture. And wo are much
of the opinion that no city ever neglected
the opportunity which Scattlo bus of
making tho farm, the dairy and tho or
chard her handmaids without paying a
high price for its folly. Tho beef, bacon
and mutton, and butlor and cheese and
vegetables and fruit, which wo must
have or starve, costs money. And money
sent abroad for theso necessaries of life
does not return( King county ought to
feed every citizen here, or likely to como
for ten -years, with tho abovo named
articles of food, and will show that it
can do so if proper means are taken to
fill up her openings with men who
know how to fium.
The Coos Bay Coal Fields. Their Recent
Transfer. Tho Proposed Railroad.
A vei impoitant change has taken
place in tho ownsbip and management
of tho coal mines on Coos bay, say Slhe
Cooo Bay News. Last woek it was an
nounced that Holt A Hawloy had pur
chased Judge Mann's interest in tho
Nowpoit mine, and Mr. Flanagan wont
to the city with tho view of arranging
matters with the now comors in the
business. Since tho arrival of tho
Areata, the superintendent of tho East
port mine recched instructions to turn
over tho property to Capt. Holt and re
port to headquarters. It appears that
after arriving at San Francisco, Mr.
Flannagan and the purchasers of Judgo
Mann's interest had no difficulty in
coming to an understanding as tq future
proceedings, and immediately put their
head together with a view to control
Con u.iy comI iii the Snn Francisco
mail it and to keep the price up to a
!iiii'-r figure. Other mines, it is tine,
Ij im been opened up on the bay, with
hat Micces can be easily seen, hut the
niily paying ones aro located on tho high
ridge extending from Newport in the
direction of Coquille, and all that por
tion in the ridgo or belt of coal, which
must naturally find its way to market
through the Newport slough lands own
ed by Flannagan It Co., is now in tho
control of these partio. It is tho in
tention of the' now firm to do business
on a large scale, to ship in large quanti
ties and sell only tho best quality. This
place is much the neatest to San Fran
cisco of any coal fields on tho coast, the
coal is equal to any in the market, and
many disinterested parties' Bay it is a
hiiperior article. In this particular,
IiOA'Cver, it speaks for itself, fiom tho fact
that it always has sold from f0 cents to
11.50 por ton more than othor coals in
San Francisco. The difficulty herotofoio
lested entirely in the shipping facilities j
parties in San Francisco who preferred
it could not depend on being ablo to get
what they needed at' convenient times
and arranged their furnaces to use other
coal. When thn road now being built to
the Newport inino is. complotod, two
largo steamers will make regular trips
between this place and San Francisco,
besides soveral sailing vessels, tho new
firm owning a controling interest in
somp eight or ten. The mines will be
kept steadily busy, and business gener
ally on'tho bay will be greatly bonefittcd.
While this change in the coal proper
ties came unexpectedly, yet, it will in no
way interfere with the pland for devel
oping the timber resources of the county
and affording an outlet with the road to
the fertile valleys of Southern Oregon
have not been interfered with.
One of the. strange features of the affair
is tho fact that two more gentlemen who
are interested in the enterprise' have
come for the sole purpose of ascertain
ing if there is. timber .in Coos county,
on account of the representation of
parties interest'-d on tho bay that there
was no timber lands in the county.
There is nothing strange in their coming
to investigate, more than thut we should
suppose the reiwrt of those who already
have been here would be sufficient, but
it is decidedly ittrange that parties thould
be respectable, and' owning property in
the county, would be w narrow minded
as to deem it necessary for their own
bruines tieces to so gro!y misrepr"
sent this section, and attempt by falsify
ing to interfere with the development of
the va-st rewnircM of thin locality.
