Road whicli were mere layers of broken ntunc six. four, ivnd even as little as three inches in thiukner. passed throuli tlie woret winters with out breaking up, while, as the coachman used t i nay, they ran true ; the wheel ran hard uj;in tlicm, it ran upon (he nail." CouiiniMioiRrs could not believe their eyee when they iaw new roads made for much Icha than it had cost thew yearly to repair their old ones. When an old road was given into McAdam's charge he often made a new one of it for 83 a mile, while round London tlic cost of annual repairs had been 470 a mile. For lie knew that the roads such had been the ignorant war-te generally contained material enough for their uce for fcveral years if properly applied. Unless the road waa hopeless, he went to work in a practical, cheap way, firet cutting off the gridiron"' of ruts in the centre to alerel with the bottom ol tho furrows," then picking " the road up to a depth of four inches, removing all tho chalk, clay or mud, breaking tho large stones email and simply put ting them back again, and one of his directions to his workmen was that nothing is to be hud on the clean stone on pretence of binding." Iut too often tlie road was so bad that it had to be removed to its foundations. For the repairs of his roads when once made he always chose wet weather, and ' loosened the hard surface with a pick " he-lore putting on the fresh broken stone things laniiliar enough to us now, but paradoxes to all the confraternities of tho roads. The eize to which the etonc should be broken he deter mined in a practical wny by tho area of contact of an ordinary wheel with a smooth road. This he found to be about an inch lengthwise, and therefore he laid it down that a stone which exceeds an inch in any of its dimensions is inis-CoicFon-." that is to say. that the wheel in prey ing on one end ol it tends to lit the other end out of the road. In practice lie f.und it simplest to Cx a weight of six ounces, an4 his surveyors lurried about scales to test the largest etones in .ai.li heap. lie would allow no large stones even fit tli Tin ndathin of his road, for he found they ! constantly worked upward by the pressure and fihraiion ol lliar iranje. iu-- v.oit ov. .. small broken stone, even over wampy ground.

THE DAILY PACIFIC Olomntcrcial SATURDAY ....MAKCII 3, 1SS3. A "vvkitkk in one of the native iajers Iublishel in this city expresses the opin ion tint there is :i "great imperfection in our trfil it !-." tlirmiodi tlw "Lift of two dUtinet iH.litieiil nartle- " whir-h i. neeonl- x i f j t incr to his wav of thintino-. the reason whv I 'J a OI things political are so much better man- aged, in England, France, the United States j and other countries." A translation of : some parts of this article is given by a foreign contemporary who criticises the writer's idea that the people of this country .should "work on this plan," saying that he has not distinguished between "cause and efFect," and being evidently of opinion that there are not two contending political parties in the Kingdom, and that there are not likely to be such until they shall be created by " a natural law as a result of a social or olitical demand or necessity." This critic's ideas do not seem to be in aironi wim wiose which uiciate me usual l m it 1 - l 1 - i i xl ... t run of article in the paper for which he writes, or in the other foreign papers which range themselves in opositioii to the pre sent Government or rather, if the truth shouM be sail of them, to the whole exi.st ing order of things political in this realm. Now this native writer may be amenable to the criticism of his foreign contem porary, inasmuch as he seems to think the " two parties " need to be created here, but he has much more of reason in his general idea than his would-be instructor has. In every country, in every community of civilized men, there "re two parties ; they need no creation ; they exist in accord ance with a " natural law," but of one that does not need some sjiecial "demand or necessity " to bring it into play ; it is part of the nature of things and is always at work here as much as anywhere else. In di fro rent countries these parties have different names, and, on the surface of things, they seem, sometimes, to have different objects and origin. These parties never wholly include the whole of the populace, there is always a third or even a fourth party, but, taking a broad view of things, a dividing line can be found in every community, separating it into two parties, each dominated by ideas which prevail everywhere, and everywhere divide men into two great classes. By no terms are these two classes better designated than by those which have in later days been adopted in England. Everywhere there is a party of Conservatives a re-aetionary party a Frenchman might perhaps call it ; and.everywhere there is the Liberal party, the party of progress, the party of action. Each of these parties is liable to the human weakness of calling the other names, of applying opprobrious epethets. The Conservative calls the liberal a Radical a Communist, an Anarchist, and sees in the tendency of his antagonist's doctrines dreadful characteristics which, if these doctrines should prevail, will in his opinion lead to the subversion of all social order, and all good government. The liberal calls the Conservative an Obstructionist, an Aristocrat or a Plutocrat ns the case may be sees in his ideas a direct tendency to every form of tyranny, oppression and slavery. These are the extreme views on either side, but it is only in times of popu lar commotion and socia disorganization that such extreme ideas take hold of any large number of people on either side. Such times do not come about through the action of either party, or through the influ ence of their opinions. They arise on the one hand from the folly or ambition of rulers, or on the other from the misery and want of a populace occasioned by failure of food crops or the disastrous results of over trading and industrial over-production. Most men are moderate in their political views, their social and political theories, always, however, ranging themselves on one or other of the two sides of that dividing line whicli we have here indicated. Nations progress most happily when each of these two great parties keeps the other best . in check. Xeither party is wholly right or wholly wrong in its fundamental ideas. Each has got hold of a half-truth, ami the absolute supremacy of the ideas which either cher ishes would be the signal for national dis aster always has been so. The native writer whoso words have incited these remarks is wholly right in Ids belief that it is for the happiness of this country that these two parties should exist here and keep one another in check ; and his foreign critic is wholly wrong in his idea that such parties do not exist here and need some special emergency to bring them into being. We live in a time when the influence of both these parties is hap pily exerting itself for the benefit of the country. The King now, as throughout I his reign, earnestly seeks to keep a bal- o.r.r hniu-wn ift,-yme views or both parties. How Liberalism and Conserva tism develop themselves 'amid the peculiar circumstances of this cfountry it would need a separate article to .bxpound. Suffice it to say that as with the ipngr, so with the Ministry we find the earnest desire to secure a happy medium in rUie government of the country a half way Utage between the ideas which are rampanJt as the minds of the enthusiasts of either party. This has ever been tho way witlyiLiberals whose liberalism has been tempered by experi ence. Avowedly and unihistakably belong ing to the Liberal par4y in this country, devoted to progress, io the cause of free dom, and the 44 government of the peo ple, by the people and for the people," the King and his present advisers yet recognize and respect what is good and wholesome in the fundamental ideas of the Conservatives, and strive with honest pur pose, ami much su "ss, to rule accordingly, Whatevek pertains to financial credit is proverbially sensitive sometimes a slight whisper or inuendo may effect seri ously very important business interests. A while ago a malevolent rumor was circu lated that the certificates of deposit issued by the Government had been tampered with. Fortunately, beyond a slight anxiety awakened in a few minds, this mischievous blory produced no injurious result, what ever. It is well known that the certificates of deposit, issued by the Government, represent coin in the Treasury, dollar for dollar. Respectable business parties, on proper application to the Minister of Finance, can have full verification that for pvery dollar issued under the Government sanction, there U a dollar in good coin in (ha Treasury foF its redemption. Home Governments have issued at times, as a financial accommodation, exchequer bills, promises to pay, based solely on the Government rredit. This Government, iiot withstanding its good name and credit has not ventured on any financial experi ment of this kind, and it is not going to begin to do so now, or to do anything to affect, in the slightest degree, its past good name for promptly meeting all its obliga tions. Civil Summary Court. (Before K. F. LJiCKEKTON, r-q., Police Justice.) J. U. KaWAl.NTI, Te. V. C. Pabke, Friday. Marcb 2nd. 1883. This wad a claim fur $200 damages for tearing down and carrying awaj a bulletin board on the 23rd February last that was exhibited in front of the plaintiff s premises in Merchant street. The plaintiff in this case is a newspaper proprietor and publisher, and the defendant is Marshal of the Hawaiian Islands. Mr. S. B. Dole appeared for the plaintiff. Mr E. Preston, for the defendant. J. U. Eawanui, sworn, stated: I am a journ alist and owner of the Pae Aina. On the 23rd February, between quarter and half-past four n'ibiflr in tliA nflornnAn tliA AfflrAhnl vinl ti I - - " v l ., . . . , . .... . , mo puix wiiurc i nuii; uijr uuiiciiu uuutu, 111114 without warrant or word, ho seized the said board, saying "I take possession of this bulletin board." lie got into his carriage quickly. At the time, I did not demand my property, us 1 j was excite at the action of tho Marshal. When in his carriage, I naked him if the frame con taining the bulletin would be of any value to him. lie returned the Ira me and kept the paper on which the bulletin wns written, without my permission. He gave no reason whatever. My brother was thero nt the time. Mr. Hopkins was with Mr. Parke. After returning tho Irame, he said, "1 want to take this bulletin board to the Palace." After lie went away, I went to Mr. Cecil Brown's office. Ho (Mr. 13.) at once wrote to the Marehal. Cross-examined: 1 am not certain whether myself or my brother took the Bulletin out of the frame and gave it to Mr. Parke. Not cer tain who opened the glass. Marshal had the paper in his poFgeseion all night. 1 went to the Martini's house that evening, I was frightened and thought I was going to be arrested. The Marshal offered mo the Bulletin, provided I gave him a receipt for it. I told him this matter was in the hands ;of my attorney and I preferred to let it rest there. I received it buck next morn ing at half past eight o'clock without a receipt. By Mr. Dole. I glanced at the receipt that the Marshal . requested me to feign. Do not remember tho words. When at the Marshal's hsuse, I asked defendant who ordered him to take away my Bulletin. He told mc tho Cham berlain wrote him a letter, demanding him to go to Kawainui's and take his Bulletin down. He also stated that he did not read tho letter care fully and he was in a hurry, so he came down and instead of telling me to take it down he did so himself. He felt ho was in tho wrong. By Mr. Preston: The defendant told mo at his house that 1 could take tho Bulletin away with me. Kahumoku sworn, stated: I work at Kawai nui's. On Friday last I saw Mr. Parke standing at tho door looking at the board, young Mr. Ka wainni and myself went out to sco him. Mr. Parke took the board down and got into a car riage with it. Kawainui Sr., came out and spoke to Mr. Parke, and I heard tho latter say 44 1 am going to take this." Cross-examined: The Bulletin wns in a frame and I do not know who opened it. This closed the case for the prosecution. Charles Hopkins sworn, stated: 1 am a clerk f ir the Marshal. I was with him on Friday last between four and five o'clock, tho Marshal told tne he wanted me to go down to Kawainui's offico and rend a certain item in tho Hawaiian language that was on the board outside of Ka wainui's office. Wo went down together. On arriving there, tho Marshal asked me to jump out of the carriage and . ee if the item in question was on tho bulletin board. I found it was there, and said, " Here's the item now." Mr. Parke took it down off the hook. As the Marshal was entering the carriage J. U. Kawainui came out, aud ho asked the Marshal what he wanted with the Bulletin Board. He replied 44 I want to take possession of this."' In the meantime I goti into the carriage. Mr. Parke was sitting on thej mauka side. B. W. Kawainui and others wero standing round tho carriage at the time. B. W. Kawainui said, " that is it" pointing to another board with a lot or printed matter on it. I said, I don't think that is what we want, I think it ia the manuscript we want. Joe Kawainui was standing on tho mauka side of the carriage at the time. lie again asked tho Mar shal what he wanted with that bulletin board. Ho added, "If you want the bulletin you miht as well take out the sheet and let us hare the board ;" and the Marshal replied, "All right." Kawainui then unscrewed the glass front, and passed the sheet over to the Marshal, and he took the board. From there we started up to the Palaee.and then we went back to the Marshal's ofliee. After being there ten minutes, a note came up from Mr. Cecil Brown (note handed in). A little while after that, a note came requesting tho Marshal to go to the Cham berlain's ofliee. The Marshal went out and left me alone, At half-past eight he came to me, and told me to go to Kawainui's with him to deliver thi.s bulletin. There wero only two boys there when we arrived, and not finding lvawainui wo enquired for him. W. C. Parke sworn, stated : I went to Kawai nui's office on Friday the 23d February, taking with me Mr. Hopkins. In addition to what the previous witness has stated, I asked him on arrival at Kawainui's, whether it was written on the hoard that people going to the luau without an invitation would be kicked out by tho Chamber- : iain. He said, it was so. I told Kawainui that he was "frM?s in publishing that, as it was pla- carded abonl the streets that anrono could go in without an iiYvitation. He said "yes, that came out after I issued the bulletin." I then said, " I want that board." He opened the front of the frame, handed me the paper and I drove off. He came to my honse and said he was afraid he was going to berrested. I assured him there was no fear of that. I then drew out a receipt and asked him to sign it.offering him the bulletin. He refused to sign the receipt, so I told him lie could take it without a receipt. He refused to take it. Cross examined zDo not knw whether lor Hopkins took down the board. I had no warrant. I asked no permission as there was no one there to ask. I had no authority. I havo been Marshal 33 years. I know of no precedent for my action. I did not offer a receipt for the bulletin when I took it. After taking the bulletin, I passed it into the hands of the Chamberlain. Ho did not ask me to bring it to him. I wished him to see the exact words on the board, as it had been represented to him there were words there that were not there. Mr. Treston, in addressing His Honor on behalf of the defendant, said that at the time Mr. Parke took the bulletin, he was not acting in his official capacity, and he acknowledged having mad.? a mistake. Every person has a right to be protected. Tle defendant took tho bulletin into his carriage, and thero the trespass ended, if any. It was in evidence that tho plaintiff d'd unscrew the frame, takeoff the bulletin, aPd give it ta tlie defend ant. If damages Verewaraei1- Lo wa3 jf opinion that the ought' t bo merely nomi nal, as iJ har.u had ben &ld o ou sustained bv tho plaintiff. 0,t,'e oU,eF "and, it had acted as an advertisemei1 for Kawainui, and good woald renuitht rofrom.- He would sell more copies of Lis paper. The defendant tried to return the bulletin the same day that he took it, but the plaintiff refused to receive it. He contended that leave and license had leu givenat the time of the occurrence. The defendant might kave bveu guilty of the trespass, but if so, in a very slight degree. A small sum would cover the 1ss to his business, his ftvlings, or his house. Mr. Iole said this was a mst important case. The evidence ou both sides showed that Kawainui regarded himself in the hands of the Marshal. In stead of resisting him at tho time he took posses sion of his (the plaintiff's) property, he looked upon the Marshal as a s; mbol cf authority. Such is the nature of the native mind in regard to the Marshal of the Kingdom, that they regard all his action in an official light. The plaintiff asked one small faTor from the defendant. He said, " if you must take the bulletin, give me back the frame." The bulletin was not allowed to go out of the Marshal's possession. It is true that the damage doue is small; the value of the paper is nothing. As a matter of news, it was of not of great importance as it occurred near the close of the day, but the caso as a matter of principle is not small; it was of vast importance. The learned counsel quoted the 4th. 9th, 12th, and 14th Articles of the Constitution, all of which have particular reference to the protection of life, liberty, and property, according to law. When the highest official in the Kingdom, next to the Ministers, committed an outrage like tho one under consideration, he looked upou it as a matter of great importance. It is not simply the case of J. A. Kawainui against W. C Parke; it is the whole population agaust official aggression. Acting as the defendant had done, he might go into any one's private office, open the safe, and take away snch private pac-rs as he thought fit. It would render every household liable to intrusion, or one's premises to be entered withont permission. Tho Anglo-Saxon hold their jH-rsonal rights as sacred. The Hawaiian do not understand these rights so well. This principle was instituted under the Magna CliarU-r in the reign of King John. Official despotism was a direct invasion of the constitutional rights of citizens. He (the Marshal) was not authorized to d us he had done. The defendant had received the sympathy of the whole community. This bulletin was held in possession of the highest official in the Kiiigdm. It was read and ordered to lie returned. Mis client represented the sentiment of this country. Without warrant or authority, the Marshal took the place of a discretionary Court. If such actions wore pormitted, citizens could no longer have tho protection of courts of law which si-ok to prevent oppression. The laws of the Kingdom would all lie swept away if this kind of thing goes on unchecked. It is right that courts of law give damages as punishment to of fenders, and as an example to others. He quoted many iustances whure heavy damages had been intlicted for apparently trivial offences. Dam ages to the extent of 50) had been given for knocking off a person's hut. In this particular instance, the case was brought into court to save duel. It is the care and sentiment of the courts a i that prevent violence being resorted to. He quoted at length from Sedgwick and other authorities. When there is an injury to a man's feelings, ho ought to receive heavy damages. Tho defendant was frightened, thinking ho was going to be ar rested, and for what, he did not know. Ho consider edthat the Marshal of the Kingdom, not acting ac cording to law, should be regarded as an outrage. The matter should bo recognized and not passed over lightly. If it had not been the desire of tho plaintiff to settle this mat ter quickly. ho would not have limit ed the .damages to $200, but would have taken it to a higher Court. All officers through out the Kingdom should take this matter to them selves, that not one of them can lay a finger on another man without due authority. It was the duty of every Court to protect the people's rights, from that of the King to the lowest man of tho Kingdom. His Honor gave judgment for tho plaintiff for $30 damages and SI 10 costs. We hear that the Consul for this country at Ftincbal, in the Island of Madeira, lias been making active enquiries in the rural districts there, and finds a strimr disposition to emigrate to the Hawaiian Islands pre vails among the agricultural population. Our Government therefore, in promoting Portuguese immigration will still h ve two strings to its bow, even should emigration from the mainland of Portugal have been utterly discouraged by the circumstance connected with the llansa's visit to Lisbon A complaint was heard yesterday before Judge Bickerton, brought by Mr. W. H. Castle against Mr. Grieve cf the publishing firm of R. Grieve A Co., for printing and publishing a pamphlet known as Hula Poni Moi, which was characterized as immoral and indecent. Tho complaint charged the defendants with leing a common nuisance, in that they printed the document referred to. The Deputy Marshal, Mr. David Dayton, appeared as public prosecutor, on the information of Mr. W. R. Castle, who swore out tho warrant, and Mr. A. S. Hartwsll for the defend ants. Mr. Grieve, pleaded guilty, and through his attorney pleaded ignorance of the contents of i the document in question. Mr. Hartwcll stated that his client had accepted of the manuscript in ! good faith, being entirely unacquainted with tho Hawaiian language, and passed it over to his fore- . man. a Hawaiian, who said nothing about thero ; being anything objectionable in it. Mr. Grieve the attorney said stood very much in the position i of the baker who baked tho famous "four and twenty blackbird nie " of nursery lore. Ho mere- j ly baked dtho pie, and had nothing to do with its j ition. He said that his client had undoubt- j compos edly printed the document, but that after doing so It had passed from his control, and he, the attor ney, did not think his client was guilty of "pub lishing" the same. He asked that the Court givo judgment aud pronounce si-ntcnce, which he was confident would le as light as the law iermitted a tine of $-25.00. Judge Bickerton declined to give judgment in the case, or to proceed further until he was made acquainted with the nature and ex tent of the offence. 11a said that he had a docu ment the Hula Poni Moi printed in the Ha waiian language, which was said, by the prosecu tion, to le indecent and immoral. He did not consider himself proficient enough in the Hawaiian language to decide upon the meaning of words which had been pointed out to him, and he should ask the prosecution to furnish him with the trans lation needed to enable hini to judge intelligent ly upon the merits of tho case. Mr. Castle explained to the Court that he had examined the document, and finding words whicli he did not understand, he called to his assistance some na tives, aud they gave him the meanings which he had noted in the margin of the copy now lefore the Court. He added that his knowledge de pended entirely upon hear.uy. The Court then reiterated its determination to suspend further hearing until tho prosecution furnished a transla tion of the document by some one duly qualified to make the same, and the case stood adjourned until Monday next. The case of the Crown against Mr. William Auld was then called. The defendant was charged with having published a certain pajier called tlie "Hula Poni Moi," said to contain ob scene language. Mr. Auld, through his attorney, Mr. John Russell, asked for a remand, which was granted. Tha court fixed the hearing for Monday next. A lawyer in Ohio has been disbirred for steding sheep.

S. F. Merchant. Such is the popular. excitement over the little Hawaiian Kingdom and its production of a fow thousand tons of uffir, that none of its merchants or pi -nters. "KnJ least of all Mr. Spreckels or any of his sons, can visit any part of the I'nittd Ststcs w ithout being: waybi.l by importunate interviewers, some times causing serious interference with their night's rest. Mr C. A. Spreckcls lately took a short run to Oregon with some friends of his own age, on pleasure bent The irre Dressible interviewer went for him, and we se the result in the Ofcgoniait. It is well known here that Mr. Spreckels' Sen'r. has for years hid his eye on Portland and been matching with keen and kindly interest the npid growth of population in Oregon and Washington Territory. It is not di.-guisel in San Francisco that some one or more places in the North probably Portl-nd will be one, must become great manufacturing centres. Everything in those States is favor- able to manufacturing; climate and water, the abundance of lumber, the proximity to the coal fields, the vast agricultural com munity already tributary to their merchants, a community which is growing in number year by year with increasing ratio in a man ner almost unprecedented in the United States. The railroad enterprises nearly com pleted when in thorough working order will probably double the population of that sec tion within three if not two years from their opening to traffic. A man must be blind who cannot see the opening grandeur of the opportunity for manufacturers on or north of the Columbia River, and the worst ene mies of Mr. Spreckels do not charge him with short-sightedness. Mr. C. A. Spreckels made no denial that while that was not the main object of his visit, he was looking about as to the advisability of, at some future dy, establishing a sugar refinery at Portland. But this young orentleman can speak for himself, snd therefore we condense his state ment to his interviewer as follows, without altering his language: 1 do not think th at n refinery at the pre sent ti i e would pay. My lather had an ' lUtUll UUU Mia, vpirs nnd years, ana as iness will war- eye on Portland for several soon as he thinks that the bus rant it and it will not be many years either. perhaps inside of three -he will set up an establishment here At the present, sugr can be refined in San Francisco and shipped to Portland much cheaper than it could be refined here, for the reason that we refine in very large quantities, and the cost per unit is always less in proportion to the amont refin' d." Spe-iking of the machinery in the present refinery in San Francisco, which will be idle when the new one with all its improvements is completed, he said : " That prt of the old machinery still serviceable was too small for the great establishment at San Francisco, but would perhaps come in well in a smaller establishment at Portland. The capacity of the new works is about 600 tons per day. The capacity of the old works the works i now in operation is about SoO tons per day. ! We expect to have the new establishment in ! operation in about two months.'' i When questioned bout subsidizing rail j roads to prevent Eastern competition, lie ; said : "I know of no arrangements. It has ! been common talk, I know, but the id?a of i such a small interest as sugar refining on ! this coast beinjr able to subsidize two or three trans-continental railways (I quote the j gossip) is preposterous. Such carriage has : always been two cents per pound across the continent until about-three years ago, when it was reduced in the interest ot California i jobbers. They failed in the business compe tition with us at this reduced rate, while the railroad company lost money by it through loss of tariff on the British sugar, which it earried through in bond for British Colum bia. Their loss of one cent per pound on this foreign sugar freight amounted to about $ 0,000 per year (I speak in round numbers), while there was absolutely no compensation in sugar freights in the coast trade, for none was brought : cross. To protect themselves, they put up the figures to the old rate, and out of this move, with which our house had nothing to do, has grown the talk to which your question refers. As to the Northern Pacific, they are now currying sugar for us into Montana und southern Idaho. We shall h-ve no other relations with them than as producers on the one hand and carriers on the other. "My father has gone to New York on business in connection with our new re finery, and has no interest in the extension or abrogation of the treaty." Question Do you expect to control the trade of Oregon. Washington, Idaho and Alontan , when the Northern Pacific is com pleted, against Eastern competition? Answer We do. We expect to supply from our establishment at S-n Francisco, and from our proposed works at Portland, all that region west of the Mississippi river Question As to your control of the Is land sugar crop? Mr. Spreckels answered promptly: It is true that we do control nearly the entire Island crop which amounts to sixty- five thousand to..s per year, by means of pim.nase thereof; which control may be had iy anyone who is wining to pay as nign a price 8 we do for the same. Eastern re finers have ;t various limes sent their agents there for the purpose of buying the ciopsj but s they were not willing to mutch our oilers, they could not succeed." Question Whobrought the Manila augr which arrived in S-n Francisco last week, and how were they able to do it in com petition with Island sugars, which come free? Answer We brought the Manila sugar, and can always bring Manila sugar in com petiti n with the Island sugs for the reison that we pay the H-.waiian planters the same price as a like grade of Manila sugar costs less the duty, laid down in the port of San Fr-i nclsco duty paid We brought the Maniiu because the Island supply was not sufficient for our uses. By this you will see that as refiners we are not benefited in the least by tho reciprocity treaty, as the planter and not the refiner receives the benefit f the amount of duty waived." Regarding the advantages to Portland of having a local refinery, he said : " In our San Francisco refinery we em ploy directly over three hundred men, and indirectly about seven times that number. The consumption of fuel and general sup, plies, makes the works an extensive market of itself. In Portland ou? establishment will be smaller, but it would be safe to cal culate that it will givo employment to at least a thousand men, about one hundred and twenty of whom would be at skilled lubor rates." Mr Spreckels might have added that Oregonians have their ovva sugar refinery, and that is only a question of time, they have aloo a share of the island shipping and will be strong competitors -rifornia for the immense export of animals, feed, building material and general supplies, of which this State has not almost a monopoly. The advantages to Oregon would noL be confined to the disbursement of wages through the refinery, but her farm ers, her dairymen, her lumber and mill men, her ether manufacturers asd her produce merchants would divide among themselves an export trade of a m.illion or two dollars a yevr. We hare always argued that it was shorti-ightcdness for Oregon or Washington Territory to stand idly bv while tho reci procity tretv was attacked, for though their interest iu it is mainly in the future, there will be a time, and it is not distant, when that interest will be equal to that on California. teristio ia strong common sense, has propound. a euro for ' larrikinism," or aa it ia called tv.
