1'IIK OliEflON STATESMAN: FltlDAY FEBUUAliY 19, 1880. BILL KYE NO. 2. '1 .Tol't of Warniiu' from ;f l'ortlaml against Lamb. with Wings. .' East ) East Toetukd, Feb. 15, 8G., Editor Statesman: While looking OTor tho columns ol your valuable paper of I'eb. 1"', tlie following extrucftrom tho "Albany Herald" attracted my attention ; "We are informed that 'iXuiver ILicklc man,' Jiving near Allkiny. shot a huge gray eaglo the other day, which had Itounced down ujq a lunb, that meas-V-r-Mred eight feet from tip to tip of his wings." Sheep ...shearers and herders trill lor.k forward with sad-eyed uiarm, for the coming of this new style of lamb. Heretofore the lamb has been found jrnmbolinr o'er the sunny plain, or frolick ing vvfili tlie largo warty tcnd along the ditch through the hay field. Now all ihm ? ill he changed, u..d tho land), which once nestled eentlv en tho hillocks of ; Mother Earth's bosom, will put Ida head f under his wing and rxioet on the handle el tliellig Dipper. Silence will then qui-' j et the man who rounds tip, :'.ml salts the ' 5 Hock. Tbt throbbing of his red heart will be Ida only companion, r.nd the eayote wilt steal softly in his tent during tlie dead hours, and eat his Buddie-bags and electric belt; the sheep-killing dog will reform, and chase the polecat into the well ; sadness will take the teat that glad ness vacated in tho mind of the sheep shearer, and he will Kaze with moistened jrricf at the black-tailed land) floating la stly in the atmosphere like the bald-headed buzzard over the fumes arising from the bay horse hide tanning in the soft, isieilow summer mm ; the story of "Mnry li:d a little lamb" will be discredited, and grate hardily on the ears of unborn generations; the deep buss voice of the hotel waiter, who turned She contents of the gravy howl on your new pants and filleuyou full of sour sarcasm, will never shout "stnfled Limb" again ; the sheep herder w ill te no more, and onr insane asylum will stand its nn ancient relic of . enipthiefig ; business will be depressed, and "tfus Strang" will be out of a job; angels . will gather in the wool from the Bailing flocks, and new -industries will fspring up in the promised land ; editors and artists, who are familiar with anaels and picture them for us, vsill le more re served in the t'uture, and when they wish to introduce an angel friend, she must be properlv clothed ; we have endured the old style of bare-footed angels long enough , and, as t he opportunity has now arrived when she can appear like other itsiwetable human beings, we want her to do it, otherwise she does not mingle at our bonton picnics. Something must be done to avert thi.8 coming calamity. I think it would bo advisable for parties in " terested in lamb chop culture to clip the wii-.,:s of the newly hatched lamb as soon as posssble. The subjects o our glorious America demand wcol socks, consequent ly they must not sit idly around and let the meek-eyed lamb soar a tray to the unknown realms of tw inkling astronomy. Where is the inventive genius of you city who will step forward and finally clasp the anchor of boiie to the lambre quin's tail? -"Frank Conover," speak: let the public know vou will do some thing (when compelled) ; tell them you will sacrifice the warm crimson life of the "Town Talk" by loaning the editorial clippers to the first man who wants to clip. If the grazing industries are al lowed to feather, a large concourse of hummintr humanity will be thrown from the saddle of employment, and. from Texas to Eo!a, a weeping wail will arise from the bronchitis of our kindred that " will make the "Stars and Stripes" ehed tears of briny anguish. Neither is this all, for when the music of the F.Pluribua IJnum . dollar ceases to muse in their pistol pockets, they will become depraved and flock in hu it numbers to tlie great city of Portland, and join the giddy throng of Chinese agitators and free-lunch iroouchers ! Yours, with buxom regret, (in cog.) Bkick Dust. THK CHINE $12 OCESHON'. Editor Statesman : Are the mast ac five agitators for he exclusion of the Chi Bese trie best mends ot tne poor I it is complained that the Chinaman work to cheaply. But for whom does he work, as a rule? la it not mostly for those who are not rich, and who cannot well afford to pay more for the labor than the China man receives ? Since their practical ex elusion from the woodpilo and saw, what purports to be a "woodsawvers' union" publishes a list of rates for woodsawing that is to say, what those having wood to eaw shall pavthera for doing it. I do not Jtnow how the rates compare with the old, but a woman working hard to make a living by keeping boarders aava sue eannot afford to pay tlie "union" rates. It will make little difference with the rich man, for the little wood he will want, but the most of the wood fawedhere has been to people of quite moderate circumstan ces, to who re. the uoulfliiig of price is some' thing of an item, bo, ot otner employ ments iu which "John" is engaged. If Hie rich farmer desires to have ids hind grubbe d he iai: pay an increased price or let it au-.nt, trie ,t tanner will have no choice about it he must let it alone. I ai l not an advocate of Chinese tires ence here, and personally do not care if not one is iolt. I have seldom employed - one, but some good things can be said of them ; they are willing to work, and rare ly, if ever,bcg. Many of tlie householders of the town know it is a common thing tor whin men to apply tor mean-;, usually eoming in pairs. I have never refused one what he asked for, but I have hat , reason to think that not one in twenty them wanted work, or would work. There are said to be many Chinamen unempioy eu, ana wey tsomeiim.es can at nouses am. ask it tnere is any work. But I do not know of one having asked for food. Citize; I'HIDE OF HANK. In hia last paier on "Aristocracy in England," Adam Badeau relate;; the fol lowing : Tlie brother of a Duke not long ago paid ins acuress to an American woman of fortune who was disinclined to listen to him. He persisted, however, till at a final refusal lie got from his knees and exclaimed : "Oh, you cannot under stand us. You aiv not made of the same clay." Our countrywoman remembered his lordship's family history and replied : "Ho, indeed, I am not descended from a king nor his mistress." BUEXA VISTA ITEMS. o F. Wells was at Perrydale last K week. Miss Nell Spalding returned from Sa lem last week, C. A. MeCullough has commenced his chopping mill in dead earnest. The skating pavilion, under Catterlin Bros., of Salem, is in full blast. Some social singing at Mrs. R. I. Hall's Sunday evening resulted pleas antly. Rev. F. J. Strayer will hold services at this place next Sunday evening, at 7:30 o'clock. The Hon. Prof. V. Garrigus, of Inde pendence, is announced to lecture here iu the near future. A grand ball will take place on Thurs day evening, Feb. ISth. A general good time is anticipated. At the race, at tho skating pavilion Saturday evening, Ilugh Baldwin camo out victorious over 8. L,. Catterlin. The narrow guage railroad is being pushed through very rapidly, and Jliuena i ista is liable to get a share ot tins rail road. Tramps have been invading the citv of late. One undertook to run a "gam" on one of our young men, but the joke was turned. Hon. R. F. Wells, justice of tho peace. has sold his proiwrtv at this place to Mrs. John Bodine, of Oregon City. Mr. Wells will not leave Buena ista, however. The sidewalk meeting seems to have teen busted up financially and effect ually. Immediate stets should bo taken in thiff matter of repairing improvements. to effect an interest. L. F. Williams, of Dallas, publicly an nounces himself as a candidate for county clerk, of Polk county. Mr. Will iams is an able and honorable man, and stands a favorable chance. Spring sowing and plowing has com menced in this section, and fall-sown grain never gave a better promise. Farmers' faces are looming up over the prospects of splendid crops. The school is progressing nicely under Prof. II. W. Herrou. The number of scholars is forty on an average. Bomo good work is being accomplished in the way of educational interests iu Buena Vista this winter. Our enterprising pottery man, M. L. Bergman, has just returned from Port land, where he has been attending to business connected with the pottery works. The jiottery has decidedly shut down for the remainder of the winter. J. M.

Fro Bono Poblioo! This Column will he Uuliuittul to sS. FMKDMAN for Ms jciuly Statement mid other news that he may have to eoinmuiiieivte. First, we have to y wc have t ikon na Inven tory of our stork, and find that we have not been asleep. Our bustniMJ has grown very rap idly in the last year, and. while wo have sold goods much more e .t-nply li.au any house In Baloiu, mid lower than those homes Unit are selling at cost, ami below coat, it still loft us a nice balance. This goes to show that tho major ity of tho public do not believe much lu hum tnigs. All these grand openings and clearance sales go like chaff before the wltid when thoy canipare tho prices of those houses to those of B. Vuirdm an. The fnct Is, the people do not be llovo in false prophets, nor do they take stock In soft soap, hut they go on realities, uudthesc they find at 8. Kiiikdman's. First, he makes no pretensions to please everybody, except to give them tho wortli ot their money. Second, ho challenges any merchant to mark goods down lower than his. He has never been undersold by any merchant In this city, lu the last seven teen years. Third, we do not expect, nor w 11 we allow any body to uudersull us In this city ou any line' wo carry In stock. Onr reason for making the challenge Is, wc are expert buyers. We have received tho highest salary that has over been paid In this Htil" i- l'id;:e mid ap praisers on general ftocks of merchandise. That the public may not ho misled, we refer, by permission, to tho leading wholesale houses In Portland, also to tho ox shorlffs of Marlon ami Multnomah counties, and to tho leading law yers of Salem and Portland who have had mer chants' estates to settle, In which we took part. It is, therefore, from knowing our nbUliios as expert Judges In general merchandise tiiat we buy more cheiply and make better selections than those who blunder Into business ami claim to lead In waking prices. If It Is for being higher than wo are, they cm net the name; but we have brought the prico of Sugar down in 8n lcm so that pies and cakes are no more luxuries to the little children. The smoker bless lis for bringing Cigarettes Iu the reach f every one, which arc now sold every whore in the city for 5 cents, where thoy used to be 10c. We have brought tho price of Huts down so low that none go barefoot now. Ills not uncommon to see ladies wearing Cloaks that were bought for half what other houses charge for the same art icle. Silks, Velvets, and Matins, have been brought down so low that every lady can wear them. Worsted goods have been broujOiiilowii to low as 1" yards for VI, In Bed spread ami Quilts we have reduced the prices so hoy that nearly every house has pienty of Led covering, aud tho Doctors are conipUlniug for want of business ou account of It. For further proof who sells the best goods for the least money, ask the little school-boys an girls whore they buy their Stationery, and thel answer will be, "At Fnirn.MAN'8." Now, to ne plalr., wo will give the !Mt iMirRMiis in mop's White Shirts, Cashmere Ovorshlrts, Undershirt and Drawers.
