FRIDAY, APRIL 20, 1S89. , v. . .' . . ibijj t jixim-i bswbhw lHE HORTICULTURAL LAW, The horticultural law passed by the 1-i.it legislature la not Kcuwrully under ntml, and so far as we know, Is very liltlo appreciated by the majority of Iho voters of Oregon. We give below Kunuusry of the law: Section 1 creates a state board of hor ticulture conflating of six members, to bo appointed by the governor, one from h- state at large and one from the five iU-t Huts into which thestutc is divided, T'lie counties of Marion, Linn, Lane n;id lienton comprise the 2d district. tVctiou provides the term of oftlce f the board shall bo four years, but to roc of those first uppointcd shall re- i t- at the end of two years. Section S provides that the board ir;y employ a seeietnry and prescribe I duties, and eleetone of their own i - Tubers treasurer. Section 4 provides that tha board ii iy receive and manage donations aud h';utsts of money and property for j ! niotiiig the objects of its formation. Section 5 provides that the oflloe of ';o board shall be located where a ma- '-"ty may determine. . r-ection 6 provides that the board jy sucgvst regulations for theinspee f n and disinfection of fruit trees, etc. Section 7 provides that the board !;!! elect from their own number, or ; '-joint from without their mini be r, a f o-fjpt tent person who shall be known :t 'iiMp-.wtor of fruit pests" who shall Mt the horticultural districts of the .-.'.;;te. lie shall, under the direction !' the board, and on his own motion and ujwn complaint of interested par tios inspect orchards, nurseries and other infected places aud report the i.u ts to the board. He shall report to the board the ht'st methods of diniin-i-hing and eradicating fruit jtesta and fruit diseases. Section 8 provides that it shall lie the duty of the Iniurd, upon complaint that imy person has an orchard, nursery, f.-uit packing house, store room or any other place in the state which is in-f.-cted with any noxious insect liable t- spread contagion to cause an inspee tiJi tobemadtt of such premises and, if found infected, they shall notify th owner or the iktsoii in pos-fssion of til tre-v or places, and shall require -tt. owner or person to make applica nt of such treatment, for the piirposu of destroying them, as the board may pr, vjribe. Section 0 fixes the duties cf the sec ntaryand places; his salary at $100 per month. , TTiXM) have been appropriated to carry (,i;t the provisions of this bill and UW f ir the hire of a secretary. Vj'hat b n , the taxpayers will receive remains t.) !. seen, but it all looks to us like a p-oitig.il waste of money simply to pro- le an early place for speculative lior tlculturlsts. V.OCK CREEK. DRV t'.l'IXU AilNISG C'AliP, 1 April 11, f wR Leba non Ex pi:;.?. : The rain has bean pouring down for ;;f last four or live days and is mixed 'th a gocd deal of .snow, which has Kid the effeet of causing our good hu-!Vv.-d party to do a good deal of gruni 1 !'.!.

We bate to lo.re 'm, but such is fate, no one to find with. If it rains we say it Is bis 4.c': hii' bringing us out here this time of U: year; if ths beans are scorched, is is Kenton that was the cati.-o of it. i'vo '.-!! rni-s iiim but not forget him, j-rjU his smiles w may never sec, i)i!t him more when bread is to ii. ,;e aud dishes to wash, though!

The ob- r of this company to bring water In. :n 'he :intiam river, about twelve in I. . f.om the head of Dry Union, and (,lui,;e out the gulch. This was talked f ccvrtsl years ag". but for want of - . i tt.i . ft- '!BiJL!i!EiL!iyU.J.!i..J..-iUi,L Jg. and prospected Dry CJulch knows tuat there lies buried a vast Amount of preo ious metal along the en t Ira lungthof It. There Is no mining district en the IV ciflc coast where there tire so many wull defined quartz ledges "as there is In this locality, and as to the richness of the ore no can deny. At the Galena mine they have paying ore from the start.' So it is with several other ledg es, and will surprise a good many peo ple when they are more fully devel oped. There will be several companies lu here just as soon as the weather will permit, and it will net bo long before Quartzville will be as live a mining camp as there is In the country. I commenced this letter on the 14th Inst., but have had no chance of send ing it out to civilization. The rain has somewhat abated, and for twodaysthe Bky has been clear. We have built a house up at Quartzville, and that will lie our headquarters hereafter. . Dr. K. O, Smith and two other gentlemen eamc up to-day and will remain here for the slimmer, lirownell aud sever al parties from Albany reached their camp after wading through suow eigh teen inches deep, but it has about all gone out of the mountains. There will be blasting going on now every day If the weather continues, and will run the deer all out of the country. Rut as there is no dear in this part of the world, It will not work any hardship on this camp. II. KentOil leaves for Albany in the morning and will carry this ta a P. O. We have all got over our colds and will try the mountains next week. L. Jlapruder, who has one of the finest mines, the Gulden Fleer, showed me ore out of bis ledge that will astonish the world when seen. Mc. is a line prospector and lias j been alouo in Quartzville all winter and our party was the first persons that he had seen for months, lie de serves to lie rewarded with a benanza mine, aud I think he has it. PtnJSPKcrott. CIIIXESK UHOli. ElUTOB Eitress : . Seeing and reading a letter from F. W. Parker in your paper on the 12th inst. claiming the Chinese to be super ior to white labor in railroad work, I will ask for Parker to prove his state ment in any railroad on the Pacific coast where the Chinese beat white la bor in the construction of railroads or in any of the departments connected with rail roading. Will l&r, Parker answer me the question, what was Mr. Andersunk's statement before the com mittee on railroads at Ottowa, Cana da, in lfcS-1? Did be make the state ment of having over four thousand Chinese employed ir. the construction o"f the Canadian Pacific, at the time? Did be or did he not svwir under oath that it averaged five Chinese to one white man in a day's work? If you cannot answer me the above questions I will answer them for you. He did swear to them, and lie hiivd Chinamen bc';;iiio be had such men as you asso ciated with him its advisers. Send for information t- your masters and ask thein tl:w question, bow does Chinese labor average with white labor? I do bvlieve they are geutkiin enough to answer you, i s you have been so anx ious to defend their cause and publicly su: render your manhood for v. free pass or as a section foreman. You lire one of l',i'3 kind wo bear of to do any tl.ing for fcinall favors wherein honest labor may by injured". Tho Southern Pacific has some more of your stripe, ready to do their bidding. Do what it ni,;y, the way you speak of white lalsir is sunieiciit proof of the vpirit with which you are animated. You wish to sneak in and get fcinall favors from the company. You arc too cowardly to face the railroad company nnd-nsk theuiora job. Oh mi, but adopt this method of writing a letter to a news paper iirst, and tbeu bend in -your ujh plieatioii with your printed letter go as to get Kome other man discharged or get a f ee pass. Let me tell you, sir, that tho roadmanter and superintend ent would not truat you or smy of your ilk, for they will t-Il you that U would take all of their thqe to watch yeu. Furthermore, I chaiii-iiire you to get the . statement from section foreman that Chinese labor is superior to white. Theiv is not a railroad man that will read your letter but will say that you are sucking fur s soft wimp. This ! our phrase, and, if you pkwe, always cor rect one on such men as you are. In fact, you ure not worth noticing; for a maii that would sell his soul to the' devil for a loaf of bread or for !nall fa vors is not worthy of recognition. M.n.U'Coi;xon, 'Mr. A. T.
