OREGON CITY, THURSDAY, AIG. U, IS77.
Let There be Harinony.
The Democracy of Oregon are actively
preparing for the next campaign, and
they are settling their little troubles to
present a solid front against the Repub
licans. They have but slight hope of
success if the Republican party is unit
ed and goes into the contest with good
men and a bold expression of its princi
ples. But -we fear that some of our
Republican exchanges, instead of try
ing to beal the differences existing, are
widening the breach, and thereby en
hancing the prospects of the Democracy.
There is every reason to Irelieve that
Oregon is Republican on a fair and
united vote, but we may give the State
again to the Democrats if we do not act
together.
There is no reason for any Republi
can to create discord within the party
There is but one honest course to be
taken which will lead to success. All
personal differences must be disregard
ed and set aside: the convention must
be free from manipulations and cliques,
and represent the honest sentiment of
the Republicans. A ticket thus placed
in the field should be the will of the
party and receive its hearty and undi
vided support. Personalities have no
business in the contest. The party is
not ajlace for the settlement of purely
personal grievances, and that seems to
be creating the only danger to Repnbli
3 can success next June. There is no need
of the party standing sponser for this
or that faction, but let all discordant
elements be set aside and the good of
tbe State and party alone considered.
"We know that there is no good reason
why Oregon should not go largely Re
publican. But if the papers which
should be working for harmony in the
party will persist in their course to cre
ate hard feelings, and forcing their per
sonal grievance s into the convention,
we may expect a recurrence of former
defeats. Let the Republican papers go
to work for one object, not to punish
personal enemies within the party, but
for the success of Republican princi
ples. Let tbe people put forth the
leaders, and then let the press come up
actively to their support. In this way
success is insured. Discord and per
sonal bickerings will defeat the party.
Tfow is the time to settle personal griev
ances, and let us close up the ranks for
a strong fight next year. Lot the party
honor those it sees fit. The choice of
an editor is only, as a general thing,
bis own, which should go no further
than the wish of any other member of
the party. The press has no right to
be used as a weapon to fight personal
battles, and we call upon the Republi
cans of Oregon to cease their warfare
upon each other. If wo want to win
the fight next June, we must do so by a
combined war on the opponents 01 our
party. Division, discord aud personal
revenge win ueieat us, while a pledge
to submit to the action of the people
will crown us with a glorious victory
Ui course there will be a contest for the
TJ. S. Senator. This we expect. Let
the Republicans in each county put
forth good honest and reliable men for
the Legislature. Let them make the
choice after they are elected. There is
no good reason why they should be
packed down with a pledge for or against
any man. Let them be elected, and
when they meet in the Legislature,
make a selection from the many able
men in the party for the position. We
Are not the instrument for any man.
We desire to see Republican success.
And we know this cannot be obtained
unless we act together and iu harmony.
Xiet our party friends look seriously at
this matter and ask themselves if the
time has not come when we should dis
card personalities and go to work with
a determination to defeat our common
enemy.

In years past the shippers and specu
lators did not dare to enter the market
to purchase the products of the State
on account of the nuscttled rates of
transportation. The various transpor
tation lines through the Willamette
Talley this year adopted a new plan
which seems to meet the approval of
shippers. They advertised to enter into
n agreement to charge so much for
freight for the year, thus enabling every
shipper to make his calculation when
he enters the market. This is a good
idea, and the speculator is not called
g upon to deduct a certain allowance for
a prospective rise in freight, which
takes away one of the greatest obstacles
heretofore to contend against. Before
our freight tariffs have been so unrelia
ble that speculators and shipjers have
always been compelled to calculate on a
large margin for increase, and hence
have deducted this margin from the
purchase price. While this benefits the
G
shipper, it is equally beneficial to the
producer, as it will give him the fall
value of his products.
The Pittsburg (Pa.) Commercial says,
pathetically, that to put the entire loss
of the recent riots there upon Alle
ghany county would bankrupt it, and
would also be inequitable, as the
causes which produced the trouble
were general and widespread rather
than local. The Commercial's notion
s that, as the State authorities man
aged the affair, the State should pay
IUCJ U1U8.
The Sentinel says tbe tide of immigra
tion is steadily pouring into Union Co.

The Result in Maine.
In the Republican State Convention
of Iowa no declaration was made for or
against what is known as the President's
Southern policy. The efforts which
the President was making to give effect
to the platform., upon which he was
elected as respects reform iu the civil
service, remarks an exchange, were like
wise passed by in silence. But the
Iowa State Convention met at a time
when the political mind was in ferment
in consequence of having been con
fronted with its own frequently reiter
ated propositions on the subject of re
form. The' order of the President
directing all officials belonging to tbe
Federal Government to retir from
committees and conventions, bad jast
beea promulgated. Iowa, whieh may
regarded as a State in which the Post
master is a ruling power, resented the
interference and remained silent.
The next Republican State Conven
tion that was held was that of Ohio
the State from which the President
hails. If an indorsement of his policy
and the general course of his adminis
ration could have been prevented there,
bis opponents would have achieved a
substantial victory. There was a leader
of some prominence also ready to hand,
in the person of B. P. Wade, who, with
great vehemence and profanity, had
been debouncing the President's policy
though he has not yet taken the
trouble to define clearly what it is. But
the Ohio Convention, without any besi
tation or serious internal contact, ap
proved in the most direct language all
that the President had done for the
purpose of restoring peace to the conn
try and introducing business principles
into the management of the general af
fairs of the nation. It was impossible
that the platform ou these subjects
could have been more clearly cut, more
positive or more emphatic.
In this condition of things the Re
publican State Convention of Maine
was invested with more than ordinary
interest. Mr. Ulame has takes no
pains to conceal the fact that be is any
thins but pleased at the course of tha
administration in regard to the South.
lie was never very conspicuous as a re
former of the civil service or anything
else. It could not be "expected that he
should feel very much elated at what
had been done by the President in that
behalf. But h has prudently kept
silent on that branch of the subject.
llis dissatisfaction presumably arises
out of the withdrawal of Federal bay
onets as props to State governments.
In company with Chamberlain, lute
Uovernor of ?outri Uarolina, he ven
tilated the subject very thoroughly at
the gathering at Woodstock ou the last
Fourth of July contrived by Bowen of
the Independent. But for all that he
has not been able to carry his State
with him. The Administration was
neither endorsed nor repudiated in
Maine. Mr. Blaine was forced to take
the floor to advocate the policy of non-
committalism.
It may bo safely assumed that if this
State could not be forced to take up a
position of hostility to the Administra
tion there will be little chance or com
mitting any other to that line of action.
The Camerons of .Pennsylvania are
somewhat disaffected. They are poli
ticians of a type who would not be like
ly to be ardent supporters of an admin
istration which is endeavoring to purify
the olhcial atmosphere. lint they will
hardly venturo upon open war, for pru
dential reasons. Conkling has not de
clared himself. The fact that he has
remained silent is proof that he is not
holly satisfied. lis is like Blaine in
one particular he has never espoused
the cause of civil service reform with
any enthusiasm. B it he is not strong
enough to force Jew York into opnosi
tion to the Admmist-ution. If Blaine
could not handle Maine as he wished,
Conkling can do little with JJew York,
wheie there are so runny other Repub-
lcan leaders ready to take advauuit) of
any mistake which he may commit.
Oregon's Exports.
It is estimated by good authority that
the three principal articles of Oregon's
exports, wheat, salmon and wool, (and
wheat is only estimated at 150,000 tons,
which will probably be 200,000), will
bring into the State 9,000,000. This
amount of export is the product of a
population of not to exceed 75.000
person, men, women and children
we ieneve mere is no atate in the
Union that can boast of an equal
amount to the same population. Our
products ara rapidly increasing, and
Oregon is at no distant day destined to
be the wealthiest State, not only of the
great North-west, but of the en tire nation.
C'ultiTatiou of Hops.
The hop interests of this State and
Washington Territory are fast becom
ing one of our chief products. The
Oregon Board of Trade says, in regard
to this industry:
We have lately added hops as a new
export from Oregon to Austrailia and
Great Britain. Its quality has been
tested and found equal to that produced
in England; and from the reports which
our merchants receive from San Fran
cisco and Great -Britain, Oregon hops
bid fair at no distant day to assume
some prominence and value among our
various exports. Like wheat, there is a
large market in England for hops; but
the price fluctuates considerably, which
is the only drawback to the extension
of this industry.
At least three credible citizens and
Republicans have told us that W. H.
Scott said that under certain contingen
cies he will support the Democrats in
the next election; and as those contin
gencies are inevitable, we may expect
to see nim - go ueauiongover the fence
in a very short time. Bee.

regon's Wool Interests.
Froir
rom the report of the Secretary and
President of tho Board of Trade of Port
land, which has just been published,
we learn that this year's wool crop
shows an increase of one fourth over
last year. It is an article of exportation
for which Eastern and Western Oregon I
are well adapted. Nothing adds more
to a State than its capacity to grow ex
port commodities. The report says that
"Australia and New Zealand runk as the
largest producers of wool in the world,
and owe their greatness as British col
onies entirely to the success they have
attained in growing this staple com
peting even in the United States mar
kets with a protective tariff equal to SO
per eeat.on present prices against them,
with our home grown wools. Vr hava
ben fortunate in securing, this year, a
number of Australian wool growers to
our eastern ranges men of capital and
experience, who have been attracted to
our State, they say, in the belief that
Oregon will eventually become a great
ool growing country." . This industry
baa been successfully carried on by
large sheep raisers in Eastern Oregon,
who find it very profitable because they
can move their wool much cheaper than
wheat. This staple commodity will
eventually form one of ourchief exports,
and we should have the factories here
to consume the bulk of it, and thus
realise to our State the advantage to be
derived in reducing raw material to the
smallest possible compass for shipment.
Wool is already one of Oregon's most
valuable exports, and is fast increasing.
Yisiting Coos Bay.
Mr. Editor: We had a very pleas
ant and pleasing trip from Oregon City
to Roseburg, which is a nice little town
located among a thousand hills. We
spent one week in climbing those beau
tiful hills and catching the mountain
trout from the clear cold waters of the
TJmpqna. From Roseburg to Coos City
is sixty miles, which we have to travel
by stage. We found tba roads very
rough, yet there were many grand and
beautiful sceneries, and our little party
enjoyed it hucelv. We went on the
steamer Myrtle from Coos City to Marsh
field and Empire City. Empire is the
county seat of Coos county, located on
the soath side of the Bay. I shall ever
remember the county clerk, Mr. Jackson,
for showing us to the court room, from
which place we could see out upon tho
old ocean, and see the beautiful ship
as thoy passed. Oh, I could love the
man who wrote "A Life on the Ocean
Wave." We got some shells from the
beach, saw the wild deer of the moun
tains, and had a verv pleasant trip
Upon tho -whole, J think Coos .Lay a
nico placb to live. Jlus. . A. Liswis.
The Wheat Supply.
Tho harvesting of thellnngarian wheat
crop was commenced the hrst week in
July and the cereal was badly rusted, to
gether with small stocks and limited
supply, caused an advance.
Austrailia has much less surplus wheat
than in 1875 crop, but her new crop will
be harvested in December or January
next, but it promises a small surplus
for export.
The prevailing and threatening famine
in several important provinces of India
will probably diminish the export of
wheat from that country.
France annually imports 16,6-11,072
bushels of wheat, mainly from Russia;
but as tbe Dannbian and Black Sea
ports will be closed, she wil! bo corn-
lulled to look elsewhere for her sup
plies. Some of the Russian product
may come out via the Baltic ports.
It is now estimated that California
will bavs no more than 150,000 tons
surplus of wheat for export from the
crop jnst harvested against 600,000 tons
from the crop of 1876.
The crop of wheat in tbe United
Kingdom promises to be under an aver
age. Great Britiau has usually i
ed from Russia about 20,000,000 to 22,
000,000 bushels of wheat and other
countries of northwestern Europe rath
er more than 25,000,000 bushels, as the
average exports from Russia for ten
years have leen about 49,000,000 bushels.
The supply of wheat in the United
Kingdom for the eight weeks ending
July 14, 1877, shows a deficiency under
consumption G0,7 qrs., and tbe sup
ply was 18u,u47 qrs. more than for the
same time in 1876.
The average weekly consumption of
corn, m the United Kingdom, in lob,
was 1,390.730 bushels.
In the south of France tho wheat
crop will le deficient in quantity. Sam
ples marketed were without color and
shriveled with the heat. The grain was
also light and lean in flour product.
Holland and Belgium usually import
from ten to twelve million bushels of
wheat, and the United Kingdom has for
the last five years imported of foreicrn
wheat and flour from 80 million to 104
million bushels. It is probable Hol
land, Belgium, France, Great Britain,
Switzerland, Italy and Germany will
require to import from 140 to 150 mil
lion bushels of foreign wheat to supple
ment their own crops. All the coun
tries outside of Russia and Turkey
have never exported so large an amount
of wheat. Will the total requirements
of Great Britain, Franoe, Belgium, Hol
land, Switzerland. Italy and Germany
be fully an aver;ice nnalirv. and ran
w - -l -J J ,
America, including Oregon and Califor
nia, Northern Russia. Germany. Alereria.
Spain, Egypt, Turkey, Chili, Australia,
and British India have a sufficient sur
plus to export 140 to 150 million bush
els of wlieat? With Russia left out,
these countries have never exported in
ine aggregate in any year so large an
mount of wheat, and with a small crop
in California, Algeria no surplus, poor
crop prospects in Australia, a small sur
plus from Spain, a famino in British
India, what are the probable capabili
ties of these countries to supply a snr-
pus or ioti.uuu.uuu bushels of wheat for
export ? The war may be suddenly ter
minated by peace.but with peace South
eastern Europe would not probably re
cover irom the effects of the war so as
to make the usual average export. 2f.

New Yokk, Aug. 20. The Times
Chicago sxecial says: Dispatches, which
have been received at Sheridan's head
quarters during the past few days from
various military sources in the far
western country, leave no doubt what
ever that Joseph, with his band of ez
Perces, is making his way eastward. It
is eyed the "ntention of the chief is
to make an attempt to strike the head
waters f Tongue river throngh Yellow
stone l'arfc. fco Hilly convinced is
Sheridan that this is his intention that
he has sent orders to commanders of
posts along the Little Horn and Tongue
rivers to keep a sharp lookout for the
hostiles and give them a warm recep
tion if they show themselves. For this
purpose the troops in that region will
uc concentrated. There are at thes
posts several hundred men of the 21t
infantry, and if it is found necessary lo
use a larger force several companies
uill be taken from two or three of the
nearest aorthern posts. Scouts have
been diss ;.!.!. ed in every direction to
gather information of the approach of
the tz Perces. In view of this chail0e
in the theater of war, there is no little
alarm felt at headquarters for the safety
of Gen. Sherman, who is supposed to
be iu the Yellowstone Park. Ho has
only 'five meu with him as an escort
The squad is well armed, however, and

It has been tho practice of agents for
the sale of sewing machines, musical in
struments and goods of that character,
lo sell goods on time and deliver their:
to the purchaser, yet claiming technical
possession until paid for. In a decision
recently made in the Supreme Court of
t ie United States in a case from Illinois,
involving a locomotive engine, the Court
affirmed that the policy of the law of
Illinois would not permit the owner of
personal property to sell it, either abso
lutely or conditionally, and still con
tinue in possession of it; and that secret
liens which treat the vendor of personal
property, who has sold it and delivered
possession of it to tbe purchaser, as the
owner, until the payment of the pur
chase money, cannot be maintained in
Illinois. They are fraudulent as to
creditors. We suspect that this is good
law in any of tho States; and that the
alternative of the sale of property in the
way specified above, namely, of taking
forcible possession by the vendor after
delivery upon the assumption that he
has always retained possession in case
the payments are not made as per agree
ment, cannot be maintained.
Another case has recently been de
cided in one of the New York courts in
which the agent had sold a sewing ma
chine on what is known as a lease; and,
having taken back the machine for fail
ure of payment, the vendee sued for the
amount paid and the court awarded
judgment for the amount with interest.

complaint has reached uu that they have not
done all that is claimed for them. Indeed
scientific skill cannot go beyond the result
reached in these wonderful preparations.
Added to Carbolic, Arnica, Mentha, iSeneca-Oil
and Witch-Hazel, are other ingredients, which
makes a family liniment that defies rivalrr.
Rheumatic and bed-ridden cripples have by "it
been enabled to throw away their crutches,
and many who for years been afflicted with a
Neuralgia, Sciatica, Caked Breast, Weak
Backs, ac, have found permanent relief.
Mr. Josiah Westlake, of Marysville, Ohio
writes : 9
"For years my rheumatism has been so bad
that I have been unable to stir from the houa.
I have tried every remedy I could hear t.
Finally I learned of the Centaur Liniment.
The first three bottles enabled me to walk
without my crutcnes. lam mending rapidly
I think your IJniment simply a marvel."
This Liniment cures Burns and Scalds with
out a scar, extracts the poison from bites and
stings. Cures Chillblains and Frosted-feet,
and is very efficacious for Ear-ache, Tooth
ache, Itch and cutaneous eruptions.
The Centanr Liniment, Yellow Wrap
per, is intended for the tough fibres, cords
ami muscles of horses, mules and animal.

Rev. Geo. W. Ferris, Manorkill, Schoharie
county, N. Y., says:
"My horse was lame for a year with a fet
lock wrench. All remedies utterly failed to.
cure, and I considered him worthless, until I
commenced to use Centaur Liniment, which
rapidly cured him. I heartily recommend it."
It makes very little difference whether the
case be "wrench," sprain, spavin or lameness
of any kind, the effects are the same. The
great power of the Liniment is.however.shown
in Poll-evil, Big-head, sweeny. Spavin, Ring--bone.

worth millions of dollars yearly to the stock

A complete substitute for Castor Oil, without
its unpleasant taste or recoil in the throat.'
The result of 20 years piactice by I)r. Samuel
Pitcher, of Massachusetts.
Pitchers' Castoria is particularly recommen
ded for children. It destroys worms,' assimi
lates the food, and allows nalnral sleep. Very
efficacious in Croup.and for children Teething.
For Colds-, Keverishness, Disorders f the Bow
els, and Stomach Complaints, nothing is so
c-ttectlve. It is as pleasant to take as honey,
costs but 35 cts.,and can be had of any druggist.
This is one of many testimonials :
"Cornwall, Lebanon Co., J'n.., March IT.
Drar .Sir: I have used your Castoria in my

Mothers who try Castoria will find they can
sleep nights, andtheir babies will be healthy.

CANCER CAN BE CURED.
Cancer has from time immemorial been a
great scourge to the human race, and is now
becoming the greater. For many years it has
been held by the medical profession, and gen
erally believed by tbe jeople, that Cancer is
incurable; that once its roots take hold upon
a victim, there is no chance for a sufferer to
escape a lingering and terrible death ; a death
surrounded by all that is disgusting and hor
rible, not only to the sufferer, but to bis
friends. Happily this fell destroyer need ao
longer be feared. Dr. H. T. Bond, of Phila
delphia, a well known physician, of la rpe ex
perience, has for four years devoted himself
to the special study and treatment of Cancer,
and the result of his experience Is his dis
covery f,r the radical cure of Cancer, without
the use of either knife, caustic or plasters,
and without pain.
The majority of persons are greatly deceived
in regard to the first symptoms and appear
ance of this most dreaded disease, considering
it painful from the commencement. This is
a sad mistake, carrying thousands to an un
timely grave. In most cases there is little or
no pain until the disease is far advanced.
The only symptoms for many months, and
even for years, are occasicnally a stingine,
darting, stabbing, shooting, smarting, itch
ing, burning, crawling or creeping sensation,
and some cases not any or these. If a
malady is growing worse instead of
better, it is conclusive evidence it is of a
malignant character, and demands imme
diate attention. If you have a branny scaly,
warty appearance, with an occasional break'
ing out of these upon the face,-lip or nose, or
any other portion of the skin, attended with
any of the above symptoms, oi a sensation of
a fly being on it, or a hair tickling it, is cer
tain evidence it is Cancer, and there should
be no delay in using Dr. Bond's treatment.
Life Is too valuable to be tampered with.
Dr. Bond's treatment consists of an "Anti
dote" that is applied locally : this at once ar,
rests the growth of the Cancer, and by cbemK
cal action neutralizes its malignity, render
ing it harmless and changing it to a simple
sore, which nature, assisted by constitutional
remedies, soon heals (when the skin is un
broken, and t he Cancer is a hard tumor, the
Antidote does not make an open sore, but re
rnovs It bv absorption'- In connection with
the Antidote is used the Specific, taken in.
ternallv. This tones up the general health,
strengthens the patient, purifies the blood,
and eliminates the poison from the system .
Dr. Bond's Antidote contains neither caustio
nor poison, and can be applied to the moat
delicate tissues of the body without Injury
and therefore is the only remedy that can be
used in internal Cancer, such as cancer of the
stomach, cancer of the womb, etc. Dr. Bond
remedies, with full directions for successfu;
treatment will be sent to any part of th
world.
