RESOLUTION OF ENDORSEMENT.
V IISBKAS, THE DotOLAB INDEPENDENT,
ft newspaper published in Roceburg, baa
been published in thU county tor the period
of three year t ; and
.WiikkEas, said newspaper it now well
established, and during a three years' trial
it bas faithfully served tbe interests of the
producer and tax-payer; therefore be it
lleAted, We, the member of the 17 in p.
oua Orange So. 28, ilo give Tan Douglas
IjiDEVEJiDRKTour unqualified eudosemenl.
and would recommend it as a newspaper
worthy the patronage of every farmer and
tax- payer in Southern Oregon. -

THE COUNTY ASSESSMENT.
Assessor Strange bad completed
the assessment ot tbe county, and
returns the taxable property as
amouiit'mgto $2,100,000 a slight
iocreaae (60,000) over last year.
In . his report he shows that
there baa been a remarkable in
crease in individual mdebeted
uess throughout the county, and
in many instances the lndcbeted
ness ot a number baa-doubled,
and there is a still greater number
ot instances where the indebeted-
ness has increased one-third in
amount. -
This last feature in the Asses
'ecr's returns is not altogether
gratifying, and yet cannot be
helped. There is still eomethiog
( worse, behind, in that most of the
increase of indebtedness has been
brought about in' the purchase of
farming implements and ma
chinery and in the improvement
of farms with the expectation of
a bountiful harvest and good
prices tor wnat, and there is
neither to reward the producer
for the labot and capital he has
expended durii.g the last nine or
ten months. It is true that there
has been rust in the wheat fields
of this county this year, the first
tifpe in twenty-five years, yet
many of our farmers are Dew
purchasers of land upon which
from the commencement there
was an indebtedness, incarred in
the purchase, and the failure now
comes upon tliem when tbey need
prosperity the most, and they
have only the alternative of in
creasing their present indebted-
- x i
" ' ." V. ''. ' - -C "
T"rfe88 with the hope ot better crops
and each prices next harvest as
..will leave them once more treo of
debt. We do not expect the rust
again next year; but the qaes
tion is, - will- prices rule high
enough then to leave the farmer
in debt a sufficient profit to wipe
out his indebtedness? Another
failure m crops and low prices
would leave many ot our farmers
bankrupted.
But in thib dark cloud there is
to be traced a small etreak of si 1
ver limn?. The assessment this
year will permit a reduction of
taxation of two mills on the dol
lar, and the amount of taxes col
lected will furnish ample means
to Day the last dollar of the
county indebtedness. This year
forty thousand dollars will be re
quired to run the county and pay
the debt, and next year taxes will
bo decreased at least 'one-third
what thev are now. "In the event
ot low prices ruling for wheat
next year, it is 6afe to argue there
will be a heavy harvest and less
taxes to pay.
.HURRAH FOR CALAPOOIA.
. We hear it from an observing
Independent that there are 150
more Independents on (Jalapooia
... creek than ever belore known iu
the history of the country. We
do not publish the statement of
our Irieud with the intention ot
creSting a horrid nightmare lot
the average Douglas county poli
tician, though the sight of an
houent Independent is frightful in
the extreme to the politician, but
more for the purpose of permitn
ting the gallant and Independent
Old Guard who have through de.
feat yet held together and remain
ed tba oalance of power io the
terror ot political thieves. One
hundred gam in, Calapooia
precinct means at tbe next dec-
. tioa one hundred and fifty or two
hundred majority for the Inde
pendent ticket, or those who will
be chosen by the Independents
on other tickets, in the next cam
paign, and when Calapooia polls
over two hundred majority for
any man upon any ticket there
never,, can be a question as to his
election. Three yearo ago Cala
-pooia precinct gave an Independ
ent rjQHjerity of from forty to fifty
. and the. Iudepenaerits have sitice
then held their own. It is true
the Independents have not. cast
their vote solid for any ticket, bi t
the forty , or i fifty " majority has
as made itself paramount upon every
y occasion. . To take ' our Inde
pendent friend's stateraent-aa cor
rect, and allowing rothing for his
enthusiasm,' one hundred taken
from the other parties, counts two
hundred for the Independents,
and wheu added to the vote of the
old Independent " veterans make
two hundred and forty Independ
ent majority in Calapooia precinct
on a straight vote. But we will
be liberal even with the politi
cians this time, and we will say
the gain is only fifty, and even at
this figure, Calapooia precinct is
good for one hundred and fifty
majority at the next election.
Hurrah tor Calapooia. When
next we hear from our friend we
will be ready to about, "Hip !
nip! Hurrah l"
It will soon be time for the ap
pomtment ot persons to take fhe
decennial census.,... The method ot
taking the census will be about
as lollws: " On or before March
1st, 1880, the aecretaryoi the Iu
terior shall appoint one or more
supervisors of ceusus for eacn
State, but the whole number
shall not exceed 150. . These su
pervisors shall appoint enumera
tors in each county, any county
having over 4,000 inhabitants vrill
be divided into districts, the
enumerators shall begin on the
first Monday iu June'. 1880, and
fin iah before the first Monday in
July, 1880, requiring the work to
be finished in less than thirty
days. Their compensation wil
be two cents for each inhabitant
two cents for each; death re

This is pure barley and wheat spirit, re.
ranrkable in fragrant ethers which impart a
delicate aroma, at the same time gradua'ly
increasing its value as a diffusive stimul'nt.
The solid residue contains large amount of
tannin, derived from Btoring in oaken casls.
which imparts to fine old ttbisky one of
its valuable individual qualities." The
amount, of residue prove tbe whisky to be
free from tbe excessive coloring and sweet'

In fact, in two words, it Is the PUREST
WHISKY, and will not only supply a pub-,
