last week, caiue up to Jlr. Henry
Conn's with l.u trained dogs. On Sat
urday morniug he and Creed Conn
enarted for Cow hollow, where varmints
that have been preying upon the sheep
f the neighborhood, were supposed to
be, taking tie' dogs on the horses, to
cave them for the chase. In a &hoit
time after turning tho hounds ioos
J.bey Btarted a large coyote, which the
huatars soon dispatched with their
rifieg. The young men on their return
vers presented with twentlr dollars by
Xlcurx. IL Conn and II. Jcues jointly,
bk aoerdanco with oilers which they
lad taada for tho destruction of these
trild animals. If more of our teachers
truld spend their recreation in dis
patching these varmints, instead of
'hunting the tiger," they might find it
both healthful and profitable and at
the same time confer a groat favor on
tho sheep-raising interests of our
county.

A Reminiscence. Some ycar3 ago
an amusing incident occurred in legal
circ'fcs' between two of the leading law
yers of Roscburg, which serves to il
lustrate tho leading characteristics of
each, and upon which their respective
success depends. The younger of the
two, who wa3 letter grounded in the
principles of the law than in their ap
plication to the facts of the case, wished
t-j "bum" an oninon from tho elder,
who is substantial: a "csso" lawyer
and who happened to bo employed on
ie opposite side of a case involving a
depute as to tua division ot wool.
Said Judge, "if J were te rent you my
farm for a blank number of years and
250 head of hogs included, and by the
tenns of tho lease you were to pay me
one-half cf the wool and one-half of
the incr ase, and at the expiration of
the lease return mo the original num
her." etc. The Judge took down sev
eral of his law books and turned them
over with considerable era fit v. Pres-
entiy a smile illuminated hia counte
nance and ke closed the book with
much emphasis, and turning upon his
questioner with a look of disdain, said:

tg2a---a"B-i--
Mr. Editor ; In the last issue of
the Independent I find an article en
titled "License vs. Prohibition." In
the first paragraph of your article wa
are told tha reason why your space ha
Wen taken up with the! diucussion of
tfiis question, which ie another war of
Ktating that you dissent from the prop
osition to restrict the liquor traffic to
the extent of prohibiting entirely, your
editorial being in the form of an apol
ogy for the sentiments expressed by
th contributors to youi paper on the
airuative of this question. I am glad
to note that you, in common with all
people of discernmant- who caro for the
future of our already g-eat State, have
noted the demoralizing eiiects of the
drinking habit upon Eocioty at large?
but am somewhat arrprised that your
iegal acumen should not have told you
your first paragraph was a contradiction
of any statement that our form of civil
j
government was endangered by at
torn pts to set up legal barriers against
tha great tide of intemperance.
If you will only lurnj to te pream
ble ta the Constitution of the United
States you will lind ths language
"Promote the general welfare " as
capable of such construction that the
prohibitionists are hardly open to tho
charge of wanting to override the fun
damental law. Take but just one of
many ct-.sos illustrating thu part of our
position. A drunken man fires your
property and. destroys it. Hie man
sober laay be a law-abiding citizen, but
crazed with liquor he becomes a felon.
Do I understand ycu to say there is no
remedy ether than what tie law pro
vides to punish wrong-doing; or that
wc menace civil liberty by the prsmnl-
gation of such doctrines in govern
mental affuirs? to use your own lan
ugo. If this is so where do Legis
latures get their authority for enacting
laws against carrying concealed weap
ons If prohibition "menaces civil
liberty," why is not the result the same
when the free-born American citizen is
denied the inalienable right of making
walking arsenal of himself? It
would be very easy to prove tha.t ten
fold mot e persons ha ve buen irrepara
bly injured since the settlement of Or
egon by whisky, than by the unlawful
using of piatola.
In the last paragraph yon sny "you
are surprised to see the various temper
ance organizations, after their repeated
failures at rohibi;.ion, join hands with
the rumsellers in denying this right to
the civil government," meaning the
right to tax and regulate the business
of saloon-keeping. As I understand
the prohibitionists, they take that po
sition because of the moral obliquity
arising from throwing around this great
wrong the sheltering arm cf the law.
They would take.th same position
upon the same grounds, were it hsre
proposed to license the companion of
grog-shops gambling houses or other
places f queitionable resort. It will
be news to many that prohibi
tion is a failure. It is only too true
that it has not entirely removed the
cause, but it is also true that the plan
has so far lessened the evil as to merit
consideration at our hands. The groat
States of Georgia and North Carolina
havo recently wheeled into line with
Maine and other prohibition common
wealths. If prohibition is a failure the
brainy men who were in the Lfgil i
tures of these States, must have been
aware of it, since it is a long tried rem
edr, and would have made haste slowly
o cumber their statute books with a
useless law, Mr. Editor, just "Come
up to the help of the Lord against the
mighty" and the people of. Oregon will
gif your paper such a boom as has
not been enjoyed since the aborigine
built his last camp fire on the hilb of
old umpqtu.
Grand Army ia a Muddle-
A special dispatch to tho Portland
Standard of Mayr 11th says: The Grand
Army of the Republic of this eity is
allowing politics to interfere with its
business, and consequently they ai3 in
a great turmoil, and many members
have resigned. A short timo ago a
memorial meeting was organized,
and tho Republican fraternity was
startled by the announcement that Col.
W. A. Walker, cf the new legion had
been chosen grand marshal. There
was a great commotion in the camps
immediately, and the rank partisans,
headed by Salmon and his kenchmen,
swore that no "dammed copperhead''
could ever lead them, even to Lone
Mountain. Last night the Republican
central committee met, when Col. WTal
ker sent in a corumwuicaticn, in which
he said: "If any citizen or resident of
California or any other state in the
Union, has aught to say against niy
cha-acter as a gentleman, or a soldier,
then I command that be be summoned.
But if the objections that I am a dem
ocrat are valid ones with you, then I
place ny resignation in the hands of
the committee." The meeting then ad
journed until Thursday next, until the
sense of tho Republican party can be
ascertained. j

THE WOOL MAKSET.
A special to the Oregonian of May
5th, from San . Francisco, says: The
condition f tha wool market is not
such as to cause dealers to become en
thusiastic over tho situation, inasmuch
as with few exceptions, no important
transactions have taken place. The
causes leading to this state of affairs is
variously given. The general opinion
of dealers is that some time will elapse
before (the market assumes a firmer
tone. Receipts here of spring wool to
date amount to 18,000 bales, and con.
sidering the quantity as well as the
quality of the wool, the market h unu
sually quiet, if net stagnant. In con
versation with a prominent firm it was
learned that, as a rule, during the cor
responding periods of previous seasons,
representatives of Eastern purchasers
were in the field in numbers varying
from twenty to thirtr, looking after
California and Oregon clips, but that
this year only three of the principal
buyers had put in an appearance, one
of whom had iu3t arrived. The latter
has clone nothing as yet, and tho others
have bought sparingly. Reports cf the
dismal character of the market which
have reached the Eist, up to the pres
ent, account for the tardiness of buyers
in being represented here. The past
dullness which has characterized trans
actions will in all probability continue
till early next month, by which tune
the Eastern wool trade will have had
ample time to decide what may be ex
pected from Texas and tho Territories,
in which wools they expect lower
prices for scoured. An impression
prevails that they will be disappointed
ill both the condition and value cf
Texas wools, and that they will, during
the first part of Juno return to th lo
cal market.
Oregon wools have found favorable
demand when business is such as to
admit of speculation. This is particu
larly the ease as regards-the higher con
dition and better grades of Eastern
Oregon clips, which is desired by man
ufacturers and scourers. Beyond the
sale of three small parcels of very
choice grade, ranging from 21 to 23
cents, no transactions of note have oc"
curred in Oregon weals. Thtt30 prices
for equally good wool are expected to
continue, fehriuky wools from East
ern Oregon will hardly equal formei
prices, for the reason that the duller
the u.arket the greater the discrimina
tion among buyers. Many cf these
wools, that were quoted last year at 17e
and 20c will be sold at reduced figures.
Samples of Oregon clips received show
that the clip will be very fine.
Xorics. I hereby give public notice that
in pursuance of the act of October 21th, 1S32,
I have posted notices as icquired by said
act, forbidding all persons from trespassing

Prompt Action ia Acute Cues-
In acato cases Compounel Oxygen has been
fc-und to act. with great promptness. Says
one of our correspondents: "I was suffering
from a cold at the time I received yoar
Treatment with a pain in the head, sore
throat, and violent cough and kept getting
rapidly worse, till in a in fsw days I was
compelled to keep in my bed.' In three days
I was able to get up, and was entirely over
it in less than ten days, which, considering
that lam now an invalid at the bestof times,
is doing well; and I give the Oxygen credit.''

Loss of Life. On -Sunday night,
May 6th, the steamer Grappler, when
within four miles of. Sey more Narrows,
British Columbia, bitrned to the wa
ter's edge and sank. About fifty lives
were lost, mostly Chinamen. The fire
was first discovered by the engineer
about ten o'clock in the evening, and as
soon as it was found that it could not be
controlled, the captain headed for land,
but in a short time the ropes leading to
the rudder were burned oil so that it'bs
came impossible to steer the ship. In
the contusion two of the ship's boats
were lest, and before the pnssengers
could -be taken ashore the fire drove
them into the water so that only about
half theiives were saved.
