THE WORST YET.
Woods' administration of State
affairs was considered a disgrace to the
party that elected him to office.
. Woods, however, is not now regarded
as having been worse than is the
present executive of Oregon, or was
the reputation of his administration
more common or disreputable than is
that of Gov. Thayer- Woods was
charged with being unduly influenced
in many of bis pardons to convicts ;
It is reported that Thayer has been
similarly influenced, and the report
liaj perhaps reached the ears of every
citizen interested in the government
of Oregon. Thayer is also charged by
c !mmon report with appointing men
. to judicial positions whom be after
wards influenced In their decision of
)aw,and has appeared before them asa-i
attorney in several questionable cases.
"Woods never did anything worse than
this..- While Woods charged for bucgv
hire in visiting the penitentiary, aud
was called a thief therefor, Thayer
la charged openly with turning con
victs ioose upon the people that he
may save in expense in the manage
ment of the penitentiary and secure
cheap credit for economical manage
ment of that institution. Tha con
victs thus turned loose have in many
i stances been returned to the peuiten-
Mary for the commission of fresh
crimes,' and after heavy costs to tax
payers. When the next election comes on,
and Thayer's party enters the field,
we cannot hut think public oplniou
will regard the Governor arid his party
f s even wow than was Woods and
the Republican party regarded at the
close of the latter's administration.
Tt will be a matter of general surprise
if Thayer and his' party are not de
feated by 1,600 to 2,0UU majority in the
Biate.
The penitentiary must be badly
managed, if reports are true. The 8a-
Urn Mercury state that for sometime
p tst complaints have reached it to the
effect . that convicts are permitted
to run about the streets of the capital
at will in citizen's clothes at night,
and saloons, drink whisky and play
cards without hinderatne. This i,
perhaps, some of the results of that
policy of Bush and Thayer which fol
lowed out, has sent newly pardoned
C" ivicts. out of the peniteutiary to
again rob the public, and to again,
by the costs of a second con
viction, add to the taxes of the peo
ple of various counties in the State.
T save the expenses of keeping men
they have been pardoned from the
penitentiary, and the changes are,
to make a little or something ou
the board of other-), they have been
turned loose to the annoyance of Sa
'em people. Such government is
o.ay child's play ; and yet is more
than th t ince it is criminal.
The Cooi County Argus calls us a
" Democratic paper," and says we
"claim a clear Democratic majority
of 20,000 in the State.'? TheArg ials
not truthful in either of these state
- in 'IltS. T.ie Ixdepexde.vt is ml a
Democratic paper, " nor has it ever
appearl in these columns that the
Democratic party had 20,000 or any
other majority in Oregon, or that any
other party "had a majority in the
Slate. We cannot furnish ideas and
bnins f r you, Mr. Argus, just now;
but we may' some day visit Kmpire,
' and then, with your consent, we will
do something for, you, and improve
your brain. To begin an argument
you should first be truthful in your
statement of facts'
Among Southern Oregon candidates
fortupreme Judge, we bear mentioned
the name of Hon. L. F. Lane. Mr.
Lane is a fine lawyer, a student, honor
able in his ideas of the law, and the
best candidate we have . heard named
by the Democrats. If it comes to De
mocracy and this shall be the cause
. for election, then the election of Mr.
'Lane should satisfy the Democracy,
. since he is the offspring of 0113 of the
. greatest war-horses of the Democratic
party.
The locomotive, with all Its bar
monious adjustments of parts, still
lacks a few weeks of being fifty years
. ohl. On the 27th of October, 1829, the
. eminent English engineer announced
' Ids discovery to an assemblage of
- iTritiah machinists and mechanical ex
. pert, and it was not till the 17th of
. September, 1830, that the first railroad
In the world was opened for passengers
" ana their luggage.
The New York Commercial thinks
that no man should despair in getting
a wife, since.Walter Stewart, of Bos
ton, possessing neither bauds or legs,
has married a young lady of 22 years
of age. But, perhaps, the young lady
was not after hands or legs, and
knew what she wanted.
The Perkiiia murderers escaped from
the jail at Yakima on the 21st ult.,
but were recaptured after a fight in
which Sa'luskin was killed and another
Indiatrwounded. The wretches should

trouble prevented. -

Hops grow well In Douglas county.--Why
do not some of our farmers turn
attention to this production ?
Trolling for salmon is being exten
sively carried on in Seattle. The In
dians catch as high as 300 to (he
canoe, and sell them for $5 a hundred.
CHANGE YOUR SEED,
' ' aw iiwjm ' .v
We have two specimeaji of wheat at
this office, of the Mediterranean va
riety, which will be difficult to im
prove upon by any farmer in the
State. They were grown on ths farms
of H. Conn, Sr., and of Mr. Clayton,
Calapooia precinct. This seed was
new to the county when planted, and
the result is plump grain; and when
bavest time came there was no rust or
shriveled wheat. Mr. Conn ana
Mr. Shambrook, to whom we are
indebted for the samples have always
held; that a change of seed In wheat
was necessary ever few yours, and the
samples we have are pr.wf, not only
of the excellence of the wheat but the
soundness of their idea. Following
their thought we would argue that as
the fields of the two sensible farmers
named were not injured ly rust or
other perplexity and detrimental
difficulty, it would be wise if our
formers would generally regard a
change of seed as advisable. Seed
wears out as do breeds of cattle and
horses. There must be a change in
the breeding of stock or stock will de
teriorate in value, size and health.
This same principle will apply to the
growing of cereals. For a number of
years wheat will produce well upon a
certain class of soil, and afterwards be
amicteu with either weavtl, rust or
some other complaint, following
which there is a failure of crops. Yet
new wheat, grown upon another class
of soil and transplanted, by the sower
of grain, will yield thirty, or forty, or
fifty bushels to the acre even iu those
years which a plague seems to visit
the crops of all fields surrounding the
weti-growi., or more property speaa
inz the well-producing farm which
escapes injury. Such Is the history o
this new wheal the White Mediter
ranean. The fields surrounding the
spots in wuicn it uas oeen planted
have failed to produce an average
crop
because of rust, blight, etc ; and yet
the new seed has not failed. Is
not
and
the connection between cerea!s
soil the same as the breeding in cattle
horses, pics,. or anything else? Is not
there needed a change in soil or seed,
and does it not follow, a close eon
nection of cereals and soil, in the
eourse of time will depreciate j the
value of both ?
OUR DISPATCHES.
The Oregonian grumbled and at
last published a false dispatch in re
gard to the wrecking of the Alex
Duncan to show that this paper does
not publish later coast dispatches
than any other journal in the State,
Our cotemporaries, in a fit of jealousy
took their cue from the Oregonian
and repeated the Oregonian's false
news. If they will take the trouble to
inquire they will learn that the Alex
Duncan yet lies high and dry at the
mouth of Rogue river ; that her pro
peller has been sent to San Francisco
for repairs; that it is not likely the
steamship will ever be taken off the
sands, and that if she is, she cannot
each Portland fr several weeks at
least. This paper publishes no news
but that which is reliable, and it pays
for such news ; and if our cotempo
raries cannot afiord to do the same,
they should be manly enough not to
speak otherwise than truthfully of our
enterprise in .making this a newspa
per. As proof of the reliability of our
dispatches from Coos Bay, we append
the following from the Coast Mail of
last week
The Roseburg Independent pub
lishes later news from the coast than
any other paper of the interior The
publisher of that paper possesses the
elements of success.
The people bt Coos Bay have always
shown a warm feeling of frie0.d4h.ip for
the Independent, and in that county
to-day it has the Urgest subscription
list of any paper ouUide of those pub
lished there. This would argue we
should return the compliment, and
our dispatches are in part secured to
attract attention of those seeking
Homes to the many inducementeheld
out io settlers in the natural resources
o" Coos county. Then we have always
o itemled that the day was not far
diitant when Coos Bay would become
Douglas county's outlet to the sea; aud
we think there should be a common
interest now between the two counties
which would teach the people in ad
v.nee of th approachiug friendship
which will exist an 1 prove everlasting.
PROMINENT DEMOCRAT WRITES.
Sentiments of an Old Democratic
Leader.
Myrtle Creek, Sept. 20, 1879
Eoitok Independe.vt: I have no
ticed your artiele of wuek before last
in regard to the strength of the Thayer
Bush wing of the Democratic party in
this State, and the comments upon the
same made by the Salem Mercury;
and as far as my knowledge extends I
endorse your article and the commeuts
of the Mercury fully.
Since '51 I have resided near this
place and voted at every general elec
tion, including 1S59 ; and do not for
get how earnestly the Bush ring la
bored to defeat Lansing Stout for
Congress, and how very near they
came doing it. Nor have I lost sight
of the action of the ring up to the
time that they took control of Gov.
Thayer and shaped his administration
to suit their selfish purposes. The
Democrats in this precinct voted for
and did all they could to elect Thayer ;
but had they known that bis
election would have resulted to the
advancement of Bus!) aud his cor
rupt ring, ari l place in their hands the
control of his administration, he
would not, could not have secured a
half dozen votes in the township.
And outside of Roseburg, in all Doug
las county, there are not in my opin
ion, one dozen Thayer-Bush Demo
crats, and shall the thing ever be
tested, you will find that 1 am right,
aud no one will ever be elected to
office in this county who will declare
iu favor of either of them. 1857.
Ou the the return of Senator Slater
and Mr. Toney Noltuer from Coos
county, a discussion occurred between
the latter and Mr. Sol. Abraham, and
the editor of the Standard was "bluf
fed" in the matter of a brt of $50 10 $5
on a question propounded by himself.
Mr. Noltner "put up" the $5 and Mr.
Abraham the $50 ; but the $5 were
withdrawn. The editor of the Stan
dard did this to save his money.
Every steel rail mill in the United
States has orders larger than It can fill
u to the end of the year, and the
Union Pac'flc railroad company are
unable to buy steel rails in this
country for the purpose of building
their new branch, which runs 150
miles south of Salt Lake city. The
consequence lias been that the com
pany have been compelled to use iron.
