AT LAST.
Sixty-three members of the Portland
chamber of commerce went to Salem on
a special train Thursday morning for the
purpose of consulting the Multnomah
' senators and the delegation about two
bills authorizing the construction of a
portage railway from The Dalles to Celilo
and impress upon them the necessity of
such an improvement. The Portlanders
appeared in the hall of representatives
about 11 o'clock and Hofer ot Marion,
knowing their mission, moved that the
house accord them a hearing on river
and harbor improvements. At 2 o'clock
the motion was carried.'
At 12:30 o'clock the chamber of com
merce delegation had a conference in a
committee-room of the state house with
Senators Simon, McGinn and Woodard,
and Representatives Beach, Burke, Card
well, Long, Myers, McCrackan, Pazton
and Thompson. The purpose of the
meeting was stated, and then Mr. D. D.
Ohpbant was called upon to speak. He
said that two bills providing for a port
age railway had been introduced in the
legislature, one in the senate by Smith
of Sherman, and one in the house by
- Boothbv of Morrow. The . Portland
bureau of transportation had considered
Doth and nad framed another measure
which, in Mr. Oliphant's judgment, em
bodied the good points of the two. He
read the bill, which provided for the
creation of a board of railway commis
sioners, consisting of the governor sec
retary of state and state treasurer, and
giving it full authority to either build
road.from The Dalles to Celilo, or to con'
tract with the O. E. & N. Co. for the use
of its track, between the points named
on equitable terms. The bill also
Authorized the board to construct the
necessary wharves and approaches and
appropriates the sum of $300,000 there'
for. fie then spoke of the great benefit
of an open river to Portland and all
Eastern Oregon.
Messrs. Ellis 6. Hughes and J. Lang
.-. followed Mr. Olliphant.' - Among the
points emphasized by them was the fact
that the present railroad rates bring
Portland merchants into close cqmpetl
Hon with the cities on the Sound, the
rates being the same,'; Mr. Lang said
the portage road would effect a saving in
freights paid on merchandise shipped
- from Portland to the Inland Empire of
from 50 to 75 per cent. It was also
stated that by the Cascades portage road
' shippers of The Dalles alone saved $75,
000 a year. ' "
One of the Portlanders said that a con
ference had been held with Receiver
McNeill, of the O. R. & N. Co., and Mc
Neill expressed his willingness to con
tract with the commissioners in case of
the passage of the bill, for the use ot the
track of the Ot R. & N. Co. between
Celilo and The Dalles. If such a con
tract be made, the expenses of building
a road will be avoided and the onlv cost
to the state will be for the construction
of wharves and approaches, which will
amount to $100,600 or $150,000, and the
balance of the appropriation. can be re
turned to the treasury. On behalf ot
the Multnomah senators and delegation
Colonel McCraken and Mr. Paxton ex
plained their attitude and the procedure
necessary to secure a passage of the bill,
At 2 o'clock the chamber of commerce
' delegation entered the house and were
given reserved . Beats within the bar,
Hofer moved that Messrs. D. D.' Oli'
pbant and Ellis G. Hughes be invited to
address the house. The . motion was
carried and the gentlemen ' were invited
- to take the platform. Mr. Hughes was
the first to speak. After being intro
duced to the house by Speaker Moores,
. he said the delegation from the chamber
of commerce visited Salem in the inter
est of Booth by 's bill authorizing the con
struction of a portage railway between
The Dalles and Celilo, and appropriating
$300,000 therefor. Mr. Hughes spoke of
the necessity of having an open river.
It was a matter of the greatest impor
.. tance, not only to Portland and Eastern
Oregon, but to all of Oregon. There
was only one railroad to Eastern Oregon
and that railroad would not accept freight
for $2 a ton when it could get.$5. . The
necessity of river, competition was im
perative. The state should make a nec
essary appropriation for the construction
of a portage road and operate it for sim
ply the cost of operation. Millions of
bushels of wheat were shipped to Port
land over this railroad every season, and
4,000,000 or 5,000,000 came from Eastern
Oregon." Freight rates charged on these
shipments; would be considered extor
tionate Ln the East, bufc.in a thinly set
tled region they are considered fair by
the railway ' company." , Two portage
roads, he said, were maintained between
The Dalles and Celilo, until Eastern
parties saw fit to construct a railroad.
Then the line of steamboats was dis
continued. From' that time to this the
country has paid tribute to the railroad
company. . '.
' -The state has pover to relieve ship
pers, and this may be 'lone in two ways.
First, build a new railroad from The
Dalles to Celilo; second, enter into an
agreement with the O. R. & N. Co. for
the use of that part of its tracks.
' There are two ways of getting use of
the company's track. First, by agree
ment with the company: second, the
state might stretch out he mighty arm
of eminent domain.. The company
probably, would not refuse to enter into
such an agreement, as if the state de
cides to build a portage it would rather
lease its piece of road and get some
profit than not lease and get no profit
Portland was not greatly interested in
a portage. That city, Mr. Hughes said
gets all the freight by Railroad anyhow.
but- Portland . was interested in the
effort for the relief of the Eastern Ore
eon farmers, because..' lower' . rates of
transportation would place 'them on
more prosperous basis. Mr. Hughes
thought that the railroad company, m
matter of portage, would be compelled
to kneel to the state and not the state
kneel to it.' .
Mr. Oliphant said that the short piece
of road from Celilo to The Dalles was the
toll-gate between Eastern Oregon and
the sea. It . was " also the same from
Portland to Eastern Oregon, high rates
being charged on' necessaries of life,
With present rates, the farmers cannot
market their goods profitably. He re
ferred to the. high freight charges from
far Eastern Oregon to The Dalles and the
low rates in effect from The Dalles to
Portland, where there is ' river competi
tion. Members of Portland chamber of
commerce, he said, were not interested
to the extent of a dollar in the portage
road. He 'was Btrongly in favor of the
project, and thought the state would re
ceive ample compensation for the ex
penditure by a shipment of a single
crop of wheat. : '
Both speakers made a favorable im
pression, and their explanation of the
advantages of the portage road will ma
terially assist in securing the passage of
the bill.

QUESTIONS FOR GRADUATES.
Members of the Alumni Association
of the University of Oregon have re
ceived circulars from Professor C. H.
Chapman, president vof the university,
asking for their addresses and present
occupation, and also for answers to the
following questions : "Have you any
suggestions to make regarding the de
velopment and future policy of the uni
versity? How Can our Alumni Associa
tion be made more beneficial to the
members and to the 'university? What
would you euggest regarding a memorial
to the late Judge Deady? would you
consider a mural 'tablet in Villard hall
to be appropriate?" '
We are not a graduate, but we would
suggest in regard to the memorial to the
late Judge Deady that Professor McEl
roy be appointed to the position of mu
ral tablet. He comes high to the tax
payers, and ought to be utilized in some
way. Besides,- should our suggestion be
adopted, McElroy would be a speaking
tablet, a most eloquent mural, and not
a "dead wall" either, ay ail means
send - Mc to Villard hall as a mural
tablet. . '
Under date of Feb.' 16th, Miss Fay
Fuller, of the Pendleton Tribune, writes
us concerning a comment made by us a
day or so ago on an article written by
her concerning the high bat in the
theater. . Miss Fuller thinks from our
comment that we misunderstood her,
and so misstated her position. In this
we think ehe fails to see the position we
take, which is, that from time immemo
rial theater-goers have tried to "enlist
the women in the warfare," and. that
this is an impossibility. It was for this
reason we stated in our comment that
Miss Fuller ' was "young." 'It will be
seen by a perusal of her letter, which
appears in another column that Miss
Fuller "never attends a theater without
removing her hat;" and this being the
case, we for ouraelf and for that great
mass of outraged humanity that attend
theaters, lift bur hat to her. '

The Oregonian this morning indorsed

they quit voting for him to a man.
The Reilly funding bill, being a bill to
fund the debt of the Union and Central
Pacific railroads, so. that , those ; roads
would be given fifty years to pay " their
debts to" the government, is to be re-
ported back to the house, with a strong
recommendation by the minority- of the
committee. The debt originally was
about $64,000,000. and the interest to
date amounts to $74,000,000, making a
erand total debt of $138,000,000. To
meet this there is in the sinking fund,
provided for some time ago, about $20,-
000,000, leaving the debt due $118,000,
000. As the companies have violated
every promise every . made concerning
the payment of this debt, and bave ig
nored' every law by' wbich the govern
ment undertook to protect itself, even
congress has grown tired of fooling with
them, and the people of the Pacific
coast, at least, are almost nnanimoua in
their demands that the government
foreclose its Hen on the roads and oper
ate them. ' ' '
The Central Pacific has been perhaps
the most peculiarly managed road in
the world. . It was no sooner completed,
and paid for by the government, than
(be management induced a rotten con
gress to permit' it to issue bonds at the
rate of about $35,000 per mile and to
make the government lien on the roads
subservient to it. In other words, con
gress permitted the government lien to
become a second mortgage, and prac
tically worthless. Then the boss con
spirators, Crocker, Huntington, Stan-
lord, and that gang of gold-laced thieves,
took the money so raised, and also all
the earnings of the road, and construct
ed a road of their own that the govern
ment had no claims on. But the little
gang of big thieves overlooked one
thing. They incorporated under the
laws of California, and hence every
stockholder is liable for the debts of the
company up to the value of bis stock,
and it is possible that the bosses may be
compelled to pay, in 1911, when the
fifty years, the limit of the corporation,
expires. This is why Huntington is bo
anxious to havo the Reilly funding bill
passed, as by it the, final settlement
will be put off fifty years. In this way
the increased business, it is thought,
would run up the earnings of the road so
that it would pay for itself, while Hunt
ington et al would be allowed to keep all
they have stolen from the government,
the Southern Pacific besides, and at the
end of fifty years the Central would be
theirs " also. It is a pretty scheme, but
California's delegation in congress
showing it np in such a way that it will
hardly work. Mr. Huntington, who
has been in Washington for months try
ing to get the Reilly bill passed, is grow'
ing weary, and threatened to turn the
whole settlement of the affair over to
congress, which is, of course, real mean
on his part. In conversation with
senator Saturday he said :
"I am not here to propose any partic
ular bill. I have become so sick of the
worry and tedium of trying to show con
gresB the best way out of the railroad
difficulty that I have now concluded to
let congress settle the bill for itself.
am only here to nrge that you do some'
thing. This thing has been neglected
now far too long. It grows worse every
year. - The longer you delay, the worse
muddle the thing will be in. .You must
do something, and that at once: There
ia no time better than at the close of the
short session, for then all useless buga
boo debate is cut' off and the thing is
done in a business-like manner."
It is a downright shame that congress
should allow the great man to worry
himself sick "trying to show the best
way out ot the railroad difficulty," and
it is little short of a national calamity
that Huntington has "now concluded to
let congress settle the bill for itself."
Mr.- Huntington may be sick of the
worry, but it will be seen that bis cheek
is still firm and his nerve unbent, when
he tells a senator that he ia going to let
congress act without his advice or dicta
tion. '
If congress can reach no other solu
tion, it should foreclose its lien, and at
least prevent the further wrecking of
the property by the owners of the South'
ern Pacific. '

THE BRANCH ASYLUM.
. The bill to provide for building an in
sane 'asylnm in Southern Oregon is
dead cold bluff. An asylnm in Southern
Oregon is not needed;, one in Eastern
Oregon is. It is needed for the care of
sach patients as are sent from the coast
counties, where heavy fogs and cloudy
days' prevail. The state needs it, and
that in the interest of its most helpless
people. Were it not for the radical dif
ference in climate, there would be no
very strong reason why a branch asylum
should be located in Eastern Oregon
But the radical difference in climate ex
ists, and the location of the branch asy
lum is not a local affair in which the
place selected for it is interested ; but a
matter in which the whole state is in
terested. The Dalles was a claimant
for the location, and in that we may
have been, perhaps, moved by local in
terests, bnt now that the asylum is lo
cated elsewhere, and selfish motives
cannot be imputed to us, we see just as
many reasons why the branch asylum
should be located in Eastern Oregon, as
we did before we were out of the fight
for it.
We sincerely hope the Southern Ore
gon bill will not be allowed to kill the
other; for that that was its intent, and
its sole intent, is plainly to be seen.
There was considerable philosophy in
the young lady's make-up who re
marked that the wind that whipped her
skirts above' her ankles, also blew dust
in the eyes of the men who stood on the
street corners. That was an optimistic
view of the situation, and it is the same
kind of view 'that wants to be taken of
the income tax. , The democratic con
gress that imposed the tax, at the same
time so hampered the business of the
country that there are no incomes.
The anti-Dolph people are possessed
of more valor than judgment. If they
really wanted Judge' Williams elected
senator, they went at his nomination as
a hog goes. to war sideways. Had his
name been kept back until the last day,
a compromise might have been reached
on him ; but now he will be in the fight
just long enough to create a bitter feel

And if, as the Sun claims, it is Dolph's
financial opinions that the thirty object

by leaving Dolph to take up Williams?
Both are pronounced gold-men. Wil
liams is an .older man than Dolph, and
Dolph has position on committees im
portant to Oregon, that Williams or any
other man, cannot hope to get. If the
opposition5 can stand Williams, we see
no reason why they cannot stand Dolph.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our regular correspondent.
- Washington, Feb. 15, 1895,
Representative Walker of Massachu
setts is by no means alone in thinking
that Mr. Cleveland deserves impeach
ment for his share in that contract for
the sale of . bonds to a European syndi
cate, and were it not for the nearness of
the end of this congress some steps
might be taken with that end in view,
The attempt to keep the terms of that
contract secret has but added infamy to
the contract itself. Under that con
tract the European syndicate will get,
it is estimated, 8 per cent probably, the
largest profit ever made on a like ifsae
of bonds of a solvent nation profit on
the $62,400,000. of 3 per cent bonds,
for no one expects the apparent activity
in congress to result in changing the
nature of the bonds issued, besides an
option on any other bonds issued pre
vious to October 1, 1895. The senate
finance committee has reported a bill
for the unlimited coinage of silver, the
government to retain the difference be
tween the amount ot silver in each dol
lar and a dollar's worth of bullion on the
day the bullion is deposited at the mint.
as seigniorage, but it is not certain that
its Opponents -will allow it to feach
vote, xne nouse committee on ways
and means has reported a resolution au
thonzing the issue of 3 per cent gold
bonds in place of those sold to European
synaicaie, out it nas absolutely no
chance to even get considered by the
senate, to say -nothing of being adopted,
Thus it will be seen that nothing will be
done by congress, "and that the enor
mous profits of the European syndicate
are, thanks to the contract drawn by
Mr. Cleveland's old law partner and ap
proved by Mr. Cleveland, safe ; and the
people will have to foot tho bill.

It is positively stated by those who
ought to know that the principal reason
why the correspondence between ex-Solicitor
General Maxwell and Attorney
General Olney, wttich led to the former's
resignation, has not been made public is
that it would raise a question of vera
city between Mr. Olney and Secretary
Carlisle, which would be bound to re
sult in the retirement of one or the
other from the cabinet. It is under
stood, and has been for a long time, that
Mr. Cleveland would be very glad to get
rid of Mr. Olney, but that he fears him
too much to attempt to force him out.
Mr. Olney is credited with being the
only man in the cabinet who has his
own way, and it ia said that upon occa
sions he browbeats Mr. Cleveland in a
terrible manner, and doesn't always
wait until they are alone to do it. It
isn't Mr. Olney himself that Mr. Cleve
land is afraid of, but the forces which
are behind him corporate wealth. - - .
