THt COST OF BAD ROADS.
The whole conn try seems to ,Ikt
Jiad a grand awakening lately in the
j,ntter of good roads, says the Ore
giiim,n. Judging from the reports sent
jbut by tjie newi-papers, the jmblie
' highways, hi esth locality must be in
. wore condition Mum thtue of uny
.other. I ilia. been asserted Hint (lie
, tinners throughout the Mistdssipli'
valley are mUd-bo,uud (hiring many!
,wcks.uf each: year j.that the highway
,nf 5ev Kiul'iuhI ere prclicully im-
jiaseable to teams during jntervul all
winter; mid ereu front staid, citretul
rouimylvnniit and arbitrary IScw .Jer
sey coin similar reports. The In
from this cause is not confined to the
farmer, though it falls heavily upon
Lim, nor to (he small trader, who is
tlio middleman in .the tralTto in email
farm products, nor upon the consumer
who is forced to live at hkb price
jipou a scuut market. All of these
suffer from impassable road during
.cue, two or three months during each
year, but the loss it not confined to
.1 hern.
Tb Philadelphia Pcess cites in ibis
i-ouuection the fuel that the people of
the United plates pay annually 1140,
,000,000 for the maintenance of their
)iub.iu sch kjU and estimates that more
than 30 per cent, of the pupils entitled
to the benefits of the school system
are absent on every school day of (he
fear. Of these the larger proportion
is composed of farmers'" children,
whose absence- is due to the iui pa usa
ble condition of the country roads. It
' is estimated farther that 1G,0J3,000
farm horses and mules Above the age
.of 2 year, ere kept in their stables iu
enforced idleness by the deep mud of
spring and fail for a peiiod averaging
Awonty days each rear at an annual
jloss of f 80,000,000, a sum sufficient to.
build 16,030 miles of excelleut Telford
or Macadam highway.
Whenever the farmers in the more
jdeawly populated states or communi
ties can be made to see some cf these
pohits au improvement in country
roads will result, ft is only neceary
to convince men of a thrifty agricul- i
Jural district that bad roads mean'
waste i and "loss, while good roads "pro
mote econoin", to secure something j
more than Sip service in the matter of ;
road-making. The trouble iu the past
has been that the cost of good -oads,!
.calling for a stated sum per mile, bus
obscured the greater cost of bad ro ids.
The present agitation of the question
.will, it is thought, correct this mistake,
and there u reason to believe that the
movement to secure better roads will
make reasonable, if not rapid, progress
in communities There this idea has
.been developed.
THE DEMOCRATIC PROGRAMME.
Tony Ifoltner, secretary of the dem
jocratic state central committee, says
px his Portland Dispatch : '
' t'ta Minnesota the farmers' alliance
leader are preparing to follow the ex
ample ot their brethren in Kansas and
Nebraska, and uniting with tbu demo
crats to defeat the republican candi
date for the presidency. The basis
talked of for a fusion is to have the
democrat support an alliance man
for governor, and divide the presi len
fial electors, giving five of the nine to
the democrats. At the lust eltction in
1800 the democrats polled 85,814, the
republicans 88,11 1 and the alliance
C8,51 The union, therefore, if car.
ried out, would give an anti-republican
majority of over CO.OOO."
This sounds very nice. Is this the
programme in Oregon? Has not this
arrangement a familiar clang? It
feems to us some such thing bs been
tried before. A fution with the al
liance is bcing'attempted in nearly till
j,lie Southern ftates, and the plan
seems to be to fuse all along the line.
Bat fclncrily to fuse has been an old
ime weakness of minority parties.
REPL'BMCAXg shoulJ bear in mind
liat Oregon electa two congressmen
this Jt:ne, and in November tbe pres-
jdenliaj election takes place. It it very
important that all' republicans should
Tote the republican ticket in June,
thereby encouraging a republican
victory in November. There ia too
jmirh at ntultA tn this onmn.icrn in
take up any side- issues, which are
bound to fall by the wayside. The
,.i,o.., :. ..n, .....j t.
p..VM'V ft . W T mug CD' UIMILCU U
tbe democrats fur the peeples' party
to 6ecure the electoral vote of several
ftates, thereby throwing tbe election
of president into the bouse of repre-eenlativea,-
which is overwhelmingly
democratic, in which case Grovcr
Cleveland would be elected president.
, We don't believe the protectionists of
' prfK'm will ,.n,i (he;,, influence to any
' such conglomeration.
This reports that' ate being spread
.broad ove tbe county by tbe peoples'
jiariy to ine eoeci toai rroiessor I. J
pleelon, candidate for tbe office v
ecliool superintendent, bas a home
aiead n Clatsrip coQpty, are false and
ruslicioua. Mr. Cleeton does not now
and never has UelJ a homestead in
plaup or any county of this
Tub question ban been aked palate
ly why Tve Minr does not publish
the peoples' party .ticket. Thoeaou
is simply thin: Jit the fiM place a
narly ticket it an advertisement ; is
paid for Hie same as a merchant ad
vertises lot good. From our advertis
ing column we expect lo receive com
pciltfuiou, the same as the farmer re
ceives pay .f.ir the products of the soil;
it ia our stock in trade; we charge the
same rales tu nil for the use of these
eolunius and all alike have access) t
them who are willing to rcnumcrate
us at our regular rates. No : furthei
explauatiou is necessary. . ;
l ; l' ' . .,7 1.'
Tint peoples party of Oregon are
cryiiijj out liecause liutes are high
Even in the rural counties the taxe
of all kiudi range from ) to 2 per
cent. But when the valu.itious un
considered the taxes sre not high
Property is aewssed aT about tine
third of its value. Put the assessment
up lo what it ought to be, and the tux
levy would be small. But in most
cases it is these very persons who pay
little or no tax that are raising this
cry of high taxes" and yet so scriourly
object to proper valuations.
It isamtis ng to bear some of the
democratic organs expose their incon
sistency, wlieu they claim that the
Judiciary should be nun partisan, and
with the next breath denounce the
republicans for wanting lo elect the
supreme judge from among their
number. If the Judiciary is to be
uoq partisau what difference does it
make who is elected so long as they
have the ability. We think our dem
ocratic, bretlnrn would hdve bard
time to find a more bitter partisan
than Judge Bunnell.
POLITICAL.
Editor Mist: In wriilng to the
chairman of the central comniitle.
recently, I eaiil that if Mr. Ellis could
refute the charge made by the so-
called peoples' partr srwikers, we
would liKe to near mm at wanner,
u .10 m.j .-j. . ,
of said peoples' party. White I do .lot
wish to encumber your columns with
persona) explanalions, allow me to
briefly say that I have little repect
fur any person so biased astobeuiiable
or unwilling to see faults when they
exist. That there are and have been
corrupt practices in bo h parties, all
caudid persons wilL I Ibiuk, admit,
but though uir opinion and vote is
only one acong millions, it is never
thclesa this: lliat the principles and
general policy of lte republican ariy
are best calculated to promote tbr
prosperity f uli classes, as a whole,
and I firmly believe the protective ixtl-
icv to be conducive to the wi Hare of
the manufacturer, operative, nd pro
ducer alike. Furthermore, if foreigu
operatives do come here even 'largrly,
they warn lieeome a part of our great
body politic they, at once become
consumers and immedialely demand
the same conditions ttiat are conceded
to the' nations, hence the so-called
comiielitiou soon turns into a larger
development of idle natural resources.
In regaid to the ieoples' party disj
triue, the few point worthy of an ex
periment are copied from liws of re
publican states, while the balancr, to
gether with the. incendiary mode of
advocating them, I-regard as obnox
ous and dangerous as the anairbiu!
views and expressions oi Schwab ,
Spies, or Parson.
- If our institutions arc at fault, it is
on account, of indulgence aud len
iency towards such seditiouista.
Yours Respectfully,
W. M. Peury.

Editor Mist: Allow me to call
ten lion to an error in the answers to
the question as to what Was the first
newspaper ptildishftu in Uregon
The answer is given in your paper
of the 22 ml as iheOregnniiin. This is a
mistake. The first paper published in
Oregon was the Oregon Siwctator,
published in Oregon Citv; I think it
was st arte. I in the winter of 1847-8, ly
a. man by the name of Curry, l oclmve.
It was a very small paper, and printed
on a woouen press, i mm is si i
diecontiuued ia the gold exciienient id
1849:
There was still another newspaper
published ia -Oregon b.-fore the Ore
gon lan came out. It was publii-hed at
Milwaukee by Waterman & Curler,
and called the Star. It was arierwaids
removed to Portland, and the name
changed lo the Times. I was sub
scriber for several years. I do nut re-
colli ct the exact dates of ll sta.rliug
of either of the papers, but I person
ally know that the Hpectiitnr and the
Star were both published before the
OrejEoniait made its firi-t npi.-arance
in Oregon. The editor of the Ore
gonian's name was Thomai J. Dryer,
not Dyer. Geokge MnuniLL.
