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

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.
