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. THE - PACIFIC ROADS. 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. ' Chinooks is a little 3-column, 8-page paper, the first number of which reached us today. It 'is published in Pendleton, and is of the hot-house-humor variety, Its most commendable feature is ' the fact that it is published . only twice a month. ' ' "There are no new developments as yet." telegraphed the correspondent at the Arizona town where the railway ac cident had happened. "Jury has not returned verdict. Waiting for the coro ner to sober up.," Chicago Tribune, v. The legislature has passed but few bills, consequently but few bad ones This being the case, the senatorial dead lock may be looked upon as not an en tirely unmixed evil. '' ' ' ' ' . The Oregonian this morning indorsed Judge Williams lor the senate, and as soon as the anti-Dolphites found it out 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. ' costly and complicated, i The causes that are responsible for the rich are also res ponsible for the poor. The very poor and the very rich are, of course, referred to in this connection. East Oregonian 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 ing against him by the friends of Dolph And if, as the Sun claims, it is Dolph's financial opinions that the thirty object to, how are they benefiting themselves 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. An exchange wants to know, "shall the rich or the poor rale?" We bave no hesitency in ' declaring that neither should" rule in a republic. In truth. there should be no rich and no poor, no classes under a republican form of gov ernment. One is just aa dangerous to the institutions of a republic as the other, and both are burdensome to industry and enterprise, making government more Ten days loss of time on account of sickness and a doctor bill to pay, is any thing but pleasant for a man of a family to contemplate whether he is a laborer, mechanic, merchant or publisher. Jas. O. Jones, publisher of the Leader, Mexia, Texas, was sick in bed for ten days with the grip during its prevalence a year or two ago. Later in the seaBon be had a second attack.' He says : "in the . latter case I used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy with considerable suc cess, I think, only being in bed a . little of er two days. The second attack I am satisfied would have been equally aa bad as the first but for the use of this rem edy." It should be borne in mind that the grip is much the same as a very severe cold and requires preciselj the same treatment. When you wish to cure a cold quickly and effectually give this remedy a trial. 50 cent bottles Jor sale by Blakeley & Houghton Druggists, 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. - - .
