Editor : Your readers will pardon mo if I give a few observations on the present condition of nfl'airs in Union county. There are a number of forces at work that are agitating the minds of the people of our county, and well they may. If the people sue enterprising enough, and I believe they are, there is no ronton that ours should not be. one of the first counties in tho slate. It is the opinion of the writer that Union county has greater and more varied resources than any other in the state. Homo of our resources are the following: Th raising of grain, such as wucar,, oats, barley and rye; of fruit, the most important of which aro apples, pears, plums, prunes, and all tho small fruits; of buy, which is pro duced in great abundance. Uesides these productions we have great mil. oral wealth, largo bodies of timber and excellent water powers. Our water powers are the Grande Hondo river, Catherine, Kaglo and Pino creeks, besides numerous other smaller streams. Our bodies of timber aro on the Eagle ereek and JJluo mountains, tho finest body of timber in tho Hluo mountains being north and west of Elgin, remain yet untouched. Our mineral wealth lies in tho Ea gle creek mountains. At Sanger the C. T. Uradley Mining Co, with a ten stamp mill, have an out put of $70,000 per month. Tho Oregon Gold Mining Co. at Cornucopia have in the Jo.l Jacket a mine that probablv could not be bought for half a million dol lars. Anil other ledges in the same district that are hardly developed into mines have standing oilers of from .f 2,0IM) to ffm,(HH). Ours is aUo a stock raising country. While wo do not raise as many cattle as formerly, tho cattle men have turned their attention to tine stock. Some of our farmers are turning their attention to raising hogs on a large scale. Tho production of wool is no small enterprise. And our liorscw! I'll venture tho aserrion that there an ntoro thoroughbred horses in Un ion county than in any other county in Eastern Oregon. All these resources aro the making of a rich and prosperous county. The first thing the people of this county need is cheaper transportation of their produce to tido waters, or what is the sumo thing, to a better market. They have now within their reach this much needed competing lino of transportation in tho proposed exten sion of the Oregon and Washington Territory railroad. One railraad is to a great extent a detriment to a coun try, while two aro a benefit if they do not pool their interests and thus vir tually become one. Tho benefits to bo derived from the building of the (). W. T. road to Union aro various. Jt will enhance tho value of real estate out side of tho towns, it iH safe to say, one-third, while town property in most of the towns will be doubled and probably tripled in value. Farmers will realize from four to eight cents per bushel for wheat and from threo to live dollars per ton on hay more than they do now. These two items alono would pay tho subhidy in two or three years anil then stand as a lasting profit from that time on. Hie indications are that Union would bo a terminus for only a short time and that the (). it W. T. would push on to Hoiso City to connect with the Chicago .t Northwestern and thus give two trans-continontal lines. An other bonelit would bo the increase in the taxable property of our county and thus lighten the burden of taxa tion, which we aro thankful to say is much lighter than in some of our neighboring counties. Another matter that is stirring tho people to some extent, although of much less importance than tho pro posed railroad, is tho county seat question. The most important part of this question for tho lax-payers to consider is the liability, in the event of the relocation, of throwing the county deep into debt. Should La Graudo put up a bond it is no better than their wool since it could Rot bo forced in tho courts as is shown by a parallel ao tested in tho courts of low a. Tho act submitting tho ro-location provides that tho county court shall appropriate not nioro than $25,000 and a tux of not more than i'J mills shall bo lovicd for tho purpose of build ing eoiiuty buildings, annually. Do you sco tho iudobtcdncM that that leads IpT I bcliovo tho tux-payers will seo nml understand this and say by their voles that tlio county ecixt bhull remain whoro it is for tho pros- Vv, . I. C. So.mj:. i Nai-i.ks, (Italy,) Jan. 20, 1889. Editor Oukoon Scout: A volcanic shimmer seems to grow with the breeze this morning. It is too near the lingo volcano of history to be pleasant. One can hardly feel safe for being afraid of an eruption. I .Naples is a beautiful city. The ha; is ' ono of tho 'finest, in the south. It spreads away in silvery sheets for miles and miles. Some of the little islands near the shore break off in ab- t I runt and ragged crags. The water is bluer here around tho dark little dill's I than in other places. Fruits of every southern description grow in abundance, and tho place bears a kind of queer feeling. Its history is cracked with earthquakes Its name almost re-echoes a volcanic groan. It is a pity that such a conn try should be tho victim of such sav age disasters. People bore are very lazy. Even tho energetic American tourists grow into a sort of lazy state after being aiound among tho sombre ruins and the lowering peaks of Naples. Uusiness grows livlior with tho day, and at noon tho streets swarm with men in carts, women on foot, and children in most every kind of con veyance. The Paboli gardens are like Central Park, New York, ono constant drift of men, women and children. All na- tionalites find their wav to this city. Poggars are numerous, and some of them are pitiful looking specimens Tlie buildings here aro of more recent construction. Things do not bear that aspect of ancient greatness that hangs around most Italian towns. It was onlya few years ago that a fearful earthquake shook the entire valley of Naples from its very founda tion. It has recovered, partially, hut some remaining traces are still to be found. Ml Vesuvius is tho place to which Spartious, the Unman gladiator, and his escaped companions, retreated when pursued by tho irate emperor. Here amid the sulphuric ashes, and tho heated bowlders of this seething orator, then dead, these valiant heroes went to nurse their first-born dreams of freedom. It was a bold strike, but they were soon overcome and died fighting for their own freedom, and not for tho amusement of a beastly ruler. I low many a mnulv strike has been made for liberty in the southern fields and among tho bonny gcenes of Italy, and how many of them have been stilled oro they were realized!
