LI o o G o O 0 .7) G THE EriTEBfBiSE. OREGON CITY, OKEm aCPT. 10, 1S75. Plax Culture in Oregon. The Portland Bulletin. Soma time sinue wo published a number of articles iu relation to flax culture ia this '.State, which seems to Lave attracted some attention in the East. Wo have just received the fol- 0vring correspomlenoo from "Mr. William "Watson of Brooklyn, New York, together with samples of jute, : hemp etc.: To the IJcrxETix: The New York Times of the 5th had a slip from the Bulletin, on "Flax In Oregon," which prompts me to sibJ you ."WII.VT I KNOW ABiJIt FL.VX" In tle hope of deepeiVg the inter est in Oregon in this Vstly impor tant vet grossly neglected product. Since arriving here, five years ago, from Aberdeen, Scotland (being an exp3ri-?n?od practical linen manufac turer) , I hive been trying to reach the bottom facts" answering the nno?inn. " V h v don't America raise its own ilax aud weave its own lin ens?" Thesis, I believe, are now all in rar hands, and what the mower and l'vaoer did for wheat, the puller and decorticator are destined to do for llax. In 1373, throughout the world, there were over three million acres in llax, of which Itussia had oie lialf, or one million six hundred thousand acres, whilst the United 'States had sixty-one thousand two hundred and four acres, or less than half of "Onld Ireland," which had one hundred and twenty-nine thou sand four hundred and thirty-two acres. Three counties in Ulster Djrrv, D)wn and Tyrone together had four thousand and eighty more acres in il ix titan the entire United States. Ireland barely contains twenty-one million acres, wherea3 in 1370, the United States had four hundred and eighty million acres, two hundred and eighty millions of which were unimproved. 2. In 1S70, thirty-threo States in the Union raised over twenty-seven million pounds ilax, the bulk of which wa3 sacrificed by being "dev iled" into flax "moss" for uphol3ter's uses, instead of hair. Instead of this, had it been properly "iixed" for manufactifre, the Unite! States I'inual expenditure of- nearly S'jO, 0:)D,0D0 for flix and its; manufacture le newest and nst mac.iines in the world. The Northwestern Flax As sociation, Colnnibn?, Oiiio, report (lSuS) that flax was tho most profita ble crop raised in Morrow county, Ohio, where it gave 8-17 08 per acre, or a half more than corn $17 00, and three times as much as oats (S'J). The entire wheat crop of the United States in 1373, only averaged $11 53 per acre. 3. Dnring the past twenty years the United States expjnded $331, 000,00!) in llax and its n anufactures, all of which could ani1 should have been provided by the United States, domestic linens from domestic fl ix. 4. During the last Swenty years, America more than idoubled its w heat exports to EnAvnd, whilst llussia decreased morrlian one half. In 18l5I,(nine montlis;(j.iaerica con tributed 53 per cent, of England's entire wheat imports', or nearly six times more than Russia, which "only Rent 11 per cent. America also re ceived 7 per cent, morv for Its wheat than Russia, fully demonstrating the superiority of America over Ru ssian wheat. 5. "Wheat 1 in 1 is best for raising flix. Amrrija makes no c'Tort to se cure a slice of England's flax trade worth 310J.033.OJ3 per annum, bnt annually buys millions of dollars of raw flax of Russi i and its manufac tures of England. When will this suicidal importation cuse? Amer ica excels Russia in wheat; it could also surpass Russia and flood the world with llax. G. There are thousands of intelli gent Irish and Germans in the Unit ed States whose dormar.t knowledge of flix culture might be utilized through a flax supply association, as ia Ireland.

During the last fourteen years of Itepnulican rule, Congress voted away the most valuable portion of of the public domain to railroad cor porations and in other ways. Of the vast empire which was regarded as one of the great sou res of national wealth, aud as a permanent attrac tion for immigration, there remains out a comparatively small amount for settlers. By a system of corrupt legislation without parallel, these rich lands were distributed among speculators ana monopolists, who bv means of the Credit Moluler and other fraudu lent combinations, shared the spoils with tho Senator nnd Representa tives that serve 1 as their agents and 1 istruments in the pin ider f riTthiS- ftl1- Tb' Apartment of the Interior, under Delano has augmented the wealth of these' cor porations to the extent of millions of acres by venal decisions against all precedent, which not only reo pened condemned and smuioas claims, but have driven thousands -r Tvtle,rS fr0m the "steads oenefit of infamoo3 Rinc-3. might have been materidly reduced 2ov this can be easily!! ocompushed through the 11 ix nulle f Tvler. and il - -- . 1 .(I ft F .1 uio uecorui.ai.or in vjjfuanc ii mg tno exports pay fothe mipoi Turn again tho tidllof imtnigi tion to our shores! by ec through Europe a miV.tier cry The Democratic State Platform. The Democratic party of Oregon m S:ate convention assembled, proclaim the following propositions of political faith ;:ml action : 1. Unfaltering devotion to the car dinal principles of Republican govern ment, as declared anil put into practi cal operation by the Fathers of the Re public. 2. The preservation of the general government in the proper exercise of the powers delegated to it in the Con stitution, carefully and strictly con strued, and the maintenance, inviolate of the several States of the Union in ail their rights, dignity and enuality, as the most competent and reliable ad ministrators of their own domesticcon cerns, and the surest bulwark against the tendency toward a centralized des- P3.1S Opposition to aggression by either department of the government upon the functions of any other and to the exercise of federal authority of any of the rights or powers reserved by the constitution to the States respectively, or to the people. 4. That every attempt on the part of the Federal government to exercise an V powers not delegated to it, and es pecially every interference by the gov ernment or "any of its departments, with the local affairs of any State, or with the rights of the people thereof to choose their own representatives, is an act of usurpation which should bo repudiated and condemned by every friend of constitutional liberty. f. Wedeniand retrenchment, reform and the most rigid economy in the ad ministration of every department of the government ; the honest payment of the debts, the sacred preservation of the miblic faith; strict accountability ot nil olliccrs, ami the speedy and im partial arraignment ot all abuses of public trust before the tribunals of jus tice; a zealous care of the rights of election by the people; the absolute subordination of the military to the civil authority. The equal and impar tial administration of the laws, and the protection of the rights of all ; freedom of religion, of the press, and of tho person, under protection of the habeas corpus, and trial by juries impartially selected. t. We protest against the burdens of a protective tariff, as need less exactions from a people already intolerably op pressed by a national debt, and we in-.-it that the tariff be so regulated as to provide only sufficient revenue for an economical administration of the gov ernment, and not for the purpose of enriching the few at the expense of the manv, or fostering one branch of in dustry to the detriment of another. 7. That the precious metals are the only basis of commercial values; that an irredeemable paper currency is a national curse, and we insist upon the speedy return by the national govern ment to specie payments. 8. The institution of the system of national banks was a fraud upon the country and an injustice upon the la boring" classes, and wo demand such prudent legislation as will gradually bring this vicious system to a close; that all currency which may be issued shall be convertible into coin upon de mand and be issued directly by the government. t. That the treaty letween the Unit ed States anil China shall be so modi fied as to apply solely to commercial relations. 10. That we condemn the party in power, only for its contempt of constitu tion il obligations, but for extravagant partisan and corrupt administration of ihe federal government; for its reck less expenditure and profligate waste of the people's money; for its oppres sive, unjust and defective system of ti-naiv.-e aud taxation; for the perver sion of the functions of the general gov ernment to enrich the great corpora tions at the expense of the people; for he jobbery and frauds which have brought reproach upon democratic in stitutions; for the iniquities of the pro tective system: for the curse of an in convertible paper money; for its dis graceful diplomatic service and unfit appointments and continuance in office of incompetent and corrupt men at home and abroad; for its attempt to pass an unconstitutional force bill, and for a catalogue of other enormities which have rendered that organization oltciisivo to and subversive of the lib erties of a free people. 11. That corporations are the crea tures of law; their functions ami priv ileges are granted to subserve the public interests, and when they are not used for the object of their creation, but for purposes ot oppression nut extortion, we declare it to ue me right and duty of the legislative power to regulate and control such corpora tions for tho public good. 12. That we disapprove all measures in the interest of monopolies against labor, and therefore we approve of the declared principles and sympathies with tho avowed objects of the order known as tiie Patrons of Husbandry, and with those of all other orders hav ing for their object, retrenchment and retonn in public affairs and the social advancement of the people. 15. That we are in favor of laboring to secure judicious appropriations from Congress 'for tho purpose of improving our harbors along the western and northern boundaries of our Slate, and we demand that our representatives in Congress shall use their best efforts to secure the aid of the general govern ment fr the free navigation and im provement of the Columbia river, by the construction of locks at the Cas cades : the improvement ot the lllain- ette andCoiuill rivers; thy construc tion of the Portland, Dalles and Salt hake and Winuemueea Railroads, and the early completion of the Oregon and California Railroad from Roscburg to the State line. 11. That the policv of tho Republi can party in dealing with the Indian tribes is impolitic ami unwise; that the time has arrived when the few Indians now occupying the Umatilla, Grande Ronde and Siletz reservations should be removed to some other locality, and thus open up to settlement by the whites some of the richest portions of theS-.ato. 1. That we invite the hearty co-operations nf all persons, whatever may have been t!iir past political affinities, to unite with us in carrying out the principles herein enunciated. SUMMONS.
