THE INDEPENDENT. THURSDAY JAN. 10. 1888 We have received a communica tion from the southern part of the county urging a division of the county by annexation to Multnomah as remedy for alt existing evils or "bad road" complications. When ever the southern section has a dull axe, this question of division is ag itated. Only a few years ngo the county was coerced into construct ing one of the most expensive bridges in Washington, at Boone's ferry, through the pressure of this same question of division. And now whenever a protest is made against the surrender of any part of the county, the stereotyped cry is raised. Hillsboro ring!! The Inde pendent knows nothing about any such ring, and is as free from all dictation by it as from the ring of Saturn. When a people have no argument to offer in favor of a rad ical btep, and such action would be in defiance of the best interests of a whole county and a very large majority of its people, the cry of "ring" has become an undisguised subterfuge and is so understood by the enlightened people of the pres ent day and age of selfish interests and poorlr diszuised methods of malcontents. The Albany Law Journal, which is known and quoted from the At lantic to the Pacific, says: "When Mr. Blaine says that tobacco is no longer a luxury, but has become a necessary, we think he is ridiculous. It may be so in a presidential, but not in a legal view. lie might say as much for alcohol or opium. The courts have decided that it is not a necessary article. In Bryant vs. Richardson L. II., 3 Exch., 93, the court held that tobacco and cigars are articles of luxury and not of utility." Buenos Ayres, the capital ot the Argentine republic, is getting to be one of the largest and finest cities in the world. It has 400,000 pop ulation, five great railway trunk .lines, 122 miles of street railway, more telephones in proportion to its population than any city in the world, and more electric lights in proportion than New York or Bos ton. There are nine splendid theatres, which give Italian opera twice a week. Twenty-one news papers, dailies, metropolitan in en terprise and appearance, furnish the news. Congressman Morrow's bill to pre' vent the immigration of anarchists, paupers, criminals, etc., is weak in substituting for the certificates of the United States consul at the point of departure proofs from foreign authorities of the fitness of the person seeking entrance to the United States. Those authorities will only be too glad to get rid of their objectionable classes by send ing them to us, and could not be ex pected to act for our interests as against their own. S. F. Bulletin. Henry Watterson, in an article on 'tariff" in January's Harpers, thus scores President Cleveland's policy of tariff for revenue only:" No one entitled to the name of statesman would advise the precipitate substi tution of a "tariff for revenue only" for the system of bounties, denom inated protection, which we have maintained for a quarter of a century. The Philadelphia Press continues its osculatory investigations and finds that a kiss costs in New York $2500 and in New Jersey $1.15, in Pennsylvania $750, in Ohio $C8, and in the western states from $10 to 8300. This variation in rates sug gests that congress should provide a commission to fix an uniform rate. Idaho was christened by Joaquin Miller, who by the way, is richer in the lore and languages of our west ern country than any other man on the continent. Idaho is Ban kock, and means "Gem of the Mountains." Alia. ine senate nas connrmed tlie ap. pointment of Lamar to the supreme a 1 m . m bench. Senators Stanford, Stewart and Riddleberger voted with the democrats for his confirmation. A New Yorker has mado a rail- real car entirely out of wood pulp He claims that it cannot be destroy ed by eitherJire or collision. The total cash in the United States treasury on January 1, 1883 was $642,610,500.28, an increase of $19,182,665.19 during the year. Lamar has taken the oath of office and assumed his duties as one of the supreme justices. Ltrt '9 JiaDT Soother at Land.

Even among farmers there are doubtless 'many men who have no idea to what depths the roots of wheat penetrate the earth. Probably the most successful farmer if asked this question would answer "from one to five inches." But all will admit, if they have given the question any thought or investiga tion, that the roots of an excellent "stand" or "good yield" have inva riably grown to a very great depth. To get the land in such condition that the kernal will "stool" and grow of sufficient depth to protect the stalk and its grain from drouth and frosts, is tho aim of every tiller of the soil. This naturally calls up the question, "how may our lands be brought up to such state of cul tivation?" To every intelligent and inquiring farmer we would ad vise the adoption of a thorough system of tile drainage. A great deal of land in this county, unpro ductive on account of its cold nature, has been brought to a high state of cultivation and is yielding enormous crops since the substitution of an intelligent system of tile drainage for the marvelous plan of nature afforded by the open ditch in car rying off the rich surface soil ! The tiling not only absorbs the surface water, but carries it away, doing double service, without the waste of soil which is ever present with the open ditch, the worst enemy of the farmer. When the soil is once washed to the ditch, it is carried away by it to the impoverishment of the lands, it deludes many farmers into the belief that it drains. But the water sinking through the earth to the tiliner, is absorbed, leaving the rich, loamy segment to give lifoi and buoyancy to the soil nlwjve. To ! show the remarkable lire and activ ity given to the earth through such drainage, a gentleman has placed upon our table several kernals of wheat, just taken from the soil, the fibres of which penetrated to a depth of from ten to fonrteen inches. Any one doubting the veracity of this statement, may call at this office and be convinced of its truthfulness. We shall be pleased to exhibit the "stumps" and make a few converts to a better system of drainage. A Kansas sheep man writes: The facts are the duty on wool instead of ranging from ten to twelve cents a pound, runs as low as tvo cents per pound. Iam a sheep man; I own cheap land and have the Indian territory to graze upon besides, and from experience can say that we of the United States cannot raise wool at the present price. The sheep men are one And all selling and shipping their sheep, and some are buying cattle; others, mules and horses. The free I ..ale men seem to think that if they reduce the tariff, we wool raisers will have to raise wool at a reduced pi ice, but within two years, with free trade, they will have to import practi cally all of the wool. I own the only bunch of sheep that is left in our township, and unless the tariff is raised mine will be ready for tho butcher next year. The woman suffrage bill hns passed both houses of the Washing ton territory legislature, and awaits the action of the governor. Spo kane Falls has sent a powerful re monstrance, and urges the governor to not act until the people have been heard on the subject. Spo kane claims the enactment of such law by the territory will do great injury to the material welfare of the eastern division of Washing ton territory, and will not only re tard the territory's admission to statehood, but will make the annex ation of a part of Idaho, known as the "panhandle," probably an im possibility. This action on the part of the people of eastern Washington will force the governor to "declare himself" in unequivocal terms. This is a question in which a man ! would rather lo right than governor, i Governor Seniple has signed the woman suffrage bill, and again the women of Washington territory will enjoy the rights conferred by the ballot.

The question of constructing a school building in Hillsboro early this year, is beginning to be favor ably discussed by many of our lead ing farmers and business men. A gentleman said to tho publisher of this paper to-day that he thought such building is needed by Hills boro, that it would be a great bene fit to tho town and county, and hoped our taxpayers would so view the question at the coming school meeting. This gentleman traveled extensively in the east last year, but says he saw no to wn of the size of Hillsboro more beautiful in appear ance than it, nud he hopes we will continue to advance as we have done during the past two years. The gentleman referred to is a wealthy farmer, and directly interested in the future growth and prosperity of our county. Many others are be ginning to talk in the same vein and it is almost a forgone conclusion that the building is a certainty of the near future. It will soon grace our town, and be among the most valued of our possessions. It will stimulate immigration to the couflty and induce the ennstruction of ele gant and commodious residences in our town. XIRHIKU. BACON WILSON.
