ctiwctat MART. V. BROWN, EDITOR. FRIDAY FEBRUARY 18, 1881. MnJlY As will be seen from the article pub Halted in this week'a DKMOCmAT unler the heading of 44 Yaquina Bay tea proveraente," the proapects of something being done in tbia dirrctian have as sumed a more hopeful outlook. The present appropriation is $10,000, and the Congressional Committee on Appro priations have recommended a further appropriation ef $10,000, which in all probability will paaa. While the com bined amount ia not a largo one it ia hoped that enough will be aceoninluhed with it to justify the hope of a still larger appropriation in the fatr.re. At least a start will have been made in the right direction. The opening of Ya quina Bay and the construction ef the proposed railroad through eastward from that point is a m itter of the ut most importance to the futuro of Al bany, as well as to the entire southern portion f the Willamette Valley and Eastern Oregon. The Central rucitir Railroad Co. announce their intention to abandon the route from Redding. Cal., so far as building it any farther northward is concerned. They intern! . after having formed the propose ! con nectioa with the Southern Pacific, and thus to the Gait" of Mexico, to build a line from some point in Baatera Cali fornia or Western Nevada r-rtt--r ward into Eastern (Oregon. The proa pects are that these procsed lines wiil be poshed to speedy completion. The proposed line from Sltafui&a Bay eastward will probably intersect the branch of the Central Pacific at some point in Eastern Oregon. Such an ar nngement would give to the Willam ette Valley and Eastern Oregon vt-rv complete railroad facilities, and lead to the rapid development of a laig sec tion of country now almost entirely isolated and unproductive. It is be lieved both lines would pav well, and when once fairly in operation, as there is every teason to believo they will be in the near future, the citizens of A! bany may look forward confidently to a reaction in business and a rise in prop erty values. There is a rumor to the effect that a considerable amount of the stock of the proposed Yaquina Pay road has been plaeed, and that the road is an assured fact. We Lave leen una ble to trace the rumor to any reliable source, bat are hopeful that it has some foundation. SIW ftCrftEMK l BT Jl DIE. "H e United States Supreme 'ourt is j fast on the dov,a grade. aean .s have occurred and more are to fol iOw, until the character uf the Court may be expected to nndergo a radical change. The latest nominatian. Star ley Matthews, is a close friend of Pre- ident Hayes, but if he has any o'ber: qualification for the high office to which he has been nominated the public are certainly unaware of it, and they have not been without fair opportunities of judging. He is bat a second-class law yer in his on Stat, and is quite out of place on any Judicial Perch, espe cially that of the Supreme ourt of the United States. He was in the Senate far a time, but wax a ennapicuona fail ure. He was known as a strong aarti an and a very narrow politician. ITe was one ef the visiting stateaaaen to Louisi:.na, and no man is more respon sible than ha far the eonsnnimation of the gigantic fraud by which his friend Hayes was counted into the Picsiden tial ebair. For his share in that traas action Stanley Matthews now comes in for his reward. The public ratty well wish that it had been conferred upyn faim in some other shape. It is also stated that Kdimuxl is to be named to fill Justice Hunt' vacan cy. Edmunds was also one of those who connired at the rape of the Pmi dency, and for this reason no Demo cratic U. S. Senator shouii vote firm either him or Matthews. They are both political knaves and have no busiress wearing theermineof a Marshal j and a Taney. OI R I'UIBSK TItt". turs. In answer to inquiries received we publish the following information con cerning our treaties with China: The first treaty between the United States and China was concluded tfyrly 3d, I Hii. This treaty was saperaeded by the treaty of 1858, negotiated by Mr. Heed. Supplementary articles were added to this treaty in 1868, by Mr. Burlingame, and these supplementary articles are what is known as the "Bur lingame Treaty," and as we have said were concluded in 1868. The last treaty wss concluded Nov. 17th, 1880, a copy of which was published in the Democrat of January 28th, 181. Samuel Buchanan, living on Foot's Prairie, near Fort Colville, on Jan. 30, hat and killed Louis Fenwich, nephew ( Indian Agent Simrui, woanded Miss Mary King in the arm and back, shot at Hon. Jaaiee O'Neii and then shot himself through the heart, dead. The ii ties shot at were dining when Buch oan called. Cause, disappointed love. Ma. Walter Moss, of the Portland Mercury, has been attacked with hem--orrhage of the lungs, and will next 'Tuesday sail for San Diego, Cal., in the shope of benefitting his fast failing health ffce TNK llllFt; TKI'tTV As yet the U. 8 Senate hss done nothing iu the matter of the new Chi nese treaty, nor is it probable that aay thing will be done until after the now organization of that bed nflor the 4th of next mouth. The people of the Pad lie ecu, re gard this question, from a local point of view, as the most important em- affile! ing this section of tho country. The new treaty has been pretty thoroughly discussed, ami time seems to but one opinion among those who have studied its features most minutely, ami that id that its principal provision is couched in language that unmistakably confors the right of naturalization I reads as follows : "Tuey (the Chinese) shall bo nccordod all the rights, privi leges, immunities and exemptions which are accorded to the citizens and subjects of the most favored natien.v" of the most conspicuous rights cot tared upon the citizens and subjects of tho most favor d nations is tho right of naturalization, and one of the most cherished privilege they enjoy is that of the ballot. As much as the Burlingame treaty was abused it was iufinitelv better than this, for that instrument, by the Senate amendment of L8G8, very wisely pro vid'd "that nothing heroin eontained shall betaken to confer the light of naturalization." And now tho instrument framed bj Mr. John K. Swift, nhteh it was hoped would forever dehtir Chinese from American citizenship, if not from indis Criminate immigration to our shores, for locust like in flux of heathen ho may in a few yean hold the balance af power in elections and in the government of a country which was oririnallv intended to be ruled and governed solely by t'ue Anghv Saxon race. Wc had hoped that there would be uo politics in this matter of Chinese immigration and naturalization, but that all good citi.ua would join alike in putting down the dangerous and per nicious evil -that all Christians and moralists would oppose the influx of these wooden god worshippers and opium jsjisoned lepers into our country: but it looks now like it Would bssOSM a great political question nfur ail. Au son Purlingame let the Chinaman in, but Stepped! thort of making him a cit izeu and voter. John K. Sift does not shut him out of the country, but takes him into its polities as a valuable Republican accession, and gives him the mastery over tho Pacific coast States in national, State and city eiectiooS, It is use-less to deny the programme any longer, for it is enrrh'd out beaWe our eyes in words too plain for horns', mis conception. Senator Korton's rejMirt, the speeches and written letters of President-elect (Jarlteld, and the cut-and-dried resolutions which were taken to Chicago, and which came r: at be ing embodied in the National KSfaSS lican platform, are nil carried out with n oathable exactitude in the treaty framed by John K. Sift ar. i approved by his Repot lican colleague. And now it ISSSM as if, with Kcp-.iLlicatia everywhere, the means justify the end. Only th ollo-r day the Republican members of the California State Sen ate, with three honorable exeeptioOSV placed themselves on the record as in rotable to this new treat v as it i. thereby committing taeassefres and their party in that State to Chineee naturalization and citizenship. We are not surprised at this action of the 'ali fornia Republicans. They realize, from the showing at the hist eh rtion, that tha Pacific S'ates are in danger. Two of them in that ejection turned their backs rqaiarely ujton the Republicans, and Oregon is so cjoep as to be debata ble ground. In (his emergen- our Radical opponents will stoop to an depths to gain the advantage ; and in this condition of things the heathen Chine.- may us well vote as a Democrat, and must therefore lie clothed with the right oi suffrage ! Of course if they are allowed to vote they will immedi ately hold the balance of powe; in every Icmituc coast otatS, aud by the easy in llux of a few hundred thousand of then into other States they can control the destinies of this country. This is as unworthy, base and infa mous a political trick M was ever played upon a long-suering people. Indignation must Hash athwurt the heart of every true American citizen in contemplating the infamy. Will a Democratic V. S. Senate per mit its consummation 1 TilK ratio of apjortioninen!, under the census of 1H80, as adopted in the now bill rejorted by the census com mittee of the House of Reprssentstires, is one member to 164,018 of popula tion. Where there is a fraction amount ing vo two-thirds of this number, au additional representative ia allowed. In eighteen States such fractions appear. The whole number of represent-itiven under this apportionment, should tjje bill pass, is 301 An effort is making to fix the number at oil, which would make a division resulting in fractions much more favorable to the sure Demo cratic States of the South. Thksb seems to be a sort of namby pamby reaction in favor of Gen. Grant, and it is quite possible the bill now be fore Congress for placing him on the retired list with the rank and pay which would '.elong to him if he bad not resigned his commission to run for President, will pass. It will, however, be modified somewhat. J. G. Uai i mo it i riiaiWLO. liast Btturday Dr. .1.

The Ongonim gives tho following brief sketch of the I oetor's lilo and services. Ir. J. C.

In that relation he was conbidered as the most eminently qualified man in the State in knowhilgr and StttsrieooS. The inmates of the institution under his charge who have any lucid intervals always greet him at such limes al a child sroold grett a father, and doubt less many of them will grieve to learn that they are no more to enjoy his kind Iv preeenca or fee) the soothing in flu SACS of his kindly nature. In their je lations to and tteatmetit of suffering humanity few men shew more of pi'v and kindness than Dr. Hawthornr, mcl when the early liht faded from his eyes at el deith claimed him, a nobis heart, a gSJtyrrOtMl SOttl, snd 0M of Cod's best works, ui) hornet t...n, paessd ti the 'orat unknown, 11 m no i rarr bj:i in.
