Editor Enteupiiise : Tho subject of a
court houso whether we shall havo one
or not will be one of tho issues to bo de
cided in tho coming contest in Clackamas
county. Tho people of Tualatin precinct
are generally in favor oi a court house
being built; but if tho honorable county
court allows Jas. M. Moore to close up anil
obstruct our only road to Oregon City, wo
will be in favor of locating it out in the
country where we can get to it without
cooning the banks ofthe river and risking
our lives hi mo aiieiupt. e nave com
plained tune and again to the court for
redress from the penurious littleness and
beggarly selfishness of this man in fenc
ing up the road to gain a few feetof ground
to expand his hop yard, but to no purpose.
1 here is not a man from the ferry at Ore
gon City to Pleasant Hill but what con
siders it an outrage, th way wo have leen
imposed upon. And if the people of Ore
gon city want tno patronage ot this side
of the river they must use their influence
and aid us in opening the Davton and
Oregon City road, so that we can come to
town without leaving our teams at tho
half-way station. There is barely room
for a wagon to pass between J. M. Moore's
fence and the river bank, and as the bank
is constantly caving oti it is dangerous.
W want to know il the iieopleof Pleasant
inn ana luaiatin nave no rights that Jas.
M. Moore is not bound to respect ? And
is there no balm in Gilead 7 Anyone
doubting our statements is referred to W.
A. Bird. H. E. Haves, J. R.Shaw, R.Ford,
Wm. Sharp, J. E. McConnell, D. Sebastian,

along the road in question. Yours truly.

An Oregou City Hoy Abroad.
Alpine, Schuyler Co., N. Y., Feb 28.
H.DITOR i-.nte uprise :lerhaps it may
please you and some of tho readers of your
paper to learn that Willard II. Latourette
visited our place a few days ago. Ho
preached in the M. E. Church on Sabbath
evening to an intelligent audience. His
sermon would give credit to anv young
man. He reminds me of Wendell Phillips ;
his size, complexion and manner of speech
is much like the New England orator. He
also gave a lecture Monday evening ; sub
ject, "Oregon and the Pacific Coast. Wo
all think he gave an honest account of
what he knew of that country. He spoke
of its advantages and disadvantages for
one and a half hours. He held a large
audience spell-bound, after which many
Questions were asked him an answered.
We have a sea captain in our place who
has seen considerable of the world, and
who is always in for a little fun. Heasked
the speaker how tho girls of Oregon com
pared with those of Alpine. Willard
brought down the houso bv answering
that ho was a single man; his hair was
short, but could bo pulled. Quite a num
lier ot young men, some mechanics, think
they will emigrate to Oregon.

Disgraceful Conduct. A correspond
ent writing from Beaver creek says : "Our
young friend Peter Nehren gave a social
hop on the 15th inst., tho occasion of his
18th birthday. Dancing was kept up until
a late hour, and the only thing that mar
red the pleasantness of the occasion was
the presence of a big hoodlum who was
loaded down with whisky and acted in a
disgraceful manner. We might give an
account of his doings on this occasion,
I ,s,to fdthy to thrust upon a modest
public. Wo received an account of a
similar affair iu. tho vicinity of Needy a
few weeks ago, but as the author failed to
sign his name it was consigned to the
waste basket. Tho law is always ready to
afford protection to every citizen, and it is
the duty of those imposed upon bv drunk
en hoodlums to give the nearest justice of
the peace a chance to investigate the mat
ter. We do not think every little dispute
should be made the occasion of a law suit
but when "bullies" go to private or public
parties and disturb and insult everybody
it 13 high time the offending party is made
to sutler for such disgraceful conduct.

LOVE.
They say it is sad to love,
Who loveth not again ;
And yet mv darling I have not found
My love for you a pain
Nor do I blush to own how sweet
My darling is to me,
Though mino I know you never were,
Nor mine can never be.
Yet soft against my cheek j-our check
Has many a timo been pressed;
And you have pillowed my head
Upon your loving breast.
Without a thought you leavo me,
Another's breast to seek ;
Yet no jealous pang do I feel,
No tear bedews my cheek.
Ere his pure love I learned to prize,
That holy love my heart would miss ;
His blessings soothed my miseries,
As he hushed me with a good-night kiss.
And should wo part forever now,
Though you would know no care,
A memory of you my heart
Whilo still it beats must bear.
But hero I pause one word to speak,
Lest some should think mo bold;
Tho object of my constancy
I havo only threo weeks known.

COURTESY OF BANCROFT LIBRARY,
A CARD AND PROSPECTUS.
Having opened a free Intelligence OHioo, for
-he purpose of assist ing newcomers to our
State to all possible means at m command,
where asa kept tiles of all loading i.ewspapers
published id Oregon and Washington Terri
tory. I have also determined to establish a
land journal, to be called
THE OREGON AND WASHINGTON
LAND REGISTER.
Tho object of which is to bring Ivnd Owners
and iteal Kstato Agents into closer communi
cation with the thousandsof Immigrants who
ro arriving in this citv with a view to the
ultimate purchase of lands. It will le printed
in regular newspaper lorm, eight page, i-'xi
inches, and will bo devoted solely to the pur
pose for which it is established. The first
edition of 5,000 copies will be issued about
tho loth of February, 1.S7.S. and as often t here-
aiier as mo niuux oi immigration aemanus.
IX'scription of farms and other property for
sale will be condensed to occupy ten lines (70
worusj or less, and will oe charged lor at tuo
rate of ono dollar each.
It is more than probable that from twenty
five thousand people will be added to our
population during the spring and summer ol
1S78. Nearlv all imniiirraiits who come to
Oregon and Washington Territory land Hrst
at roniiiiui, and will recleve a copy oi tins
paper, as it will ho. distributed gratuitously.
It will therefore bo the best possible means of
bringing lands and other property for sale to
their notice.
Descriptions of property for salo may be
written out in full, giving character, location,
price, terms of salo, and all advantages of
schools, churches, roads, etc., which will bo

and tho letter numbered to corresioiid with
the description, and hied in iny otlico for re
ference. No charge will bo made for sales
arranged through this agency the only fee
required being one dollar for each description
inserted In tho fv.Ni Kwiister, which must
bo forwarded wit h tho descript ion. It may bo
sent in silver bv registered letter, or by postal
order at my risk.
CorresKudencc on all subjects connected
wit h the development of all jHjrt.ions of tho
State and Territory lcspoet fully solicited.
1 keep a register in my otlico in which aro
entered the wants of all parts ofthe State and
Territory for laborers, mechanics, merchants,
etc., which is oien lor tho free inspection of
newcomers. Notice of such wants resect
fully solicited. All matter intended for pub
lication in tho land register must bo written

o the lirst of February, 1S7S. All descriptions
