TS bill introduced into th legUl. tare providing for lb payment of Use in two intUllmtoU should, we btlievo, becon.e a law. Tra populists insist that they mad galas ia lb last altion, ad yst when thy look at tb damp they out aea everv on of the extraordinary oollee- tina of political freak that were one olitUd to be Bailed governor. TBI trouble between Mexico and GnaWou! fa rapidly graving, and the former country baa already beguu to prepare for war. In the event of war betweea the two counlriee ao near bom this eonatry could find an nnex pec ted market for its staplo product. TBS atnatorial deadlocks ia Oregon, Washington, and Idaho at the present time prove conclusively wbat a bless ing it would b if United States aena- inn war elected by direct vote of the people. Indeed the American people re tally competent to elect U their aervanti. Tm Oregonian aaya " th bosses com palled th Maltnomah members of the IsgiaUtur to agree to support Dolph bafor they could be nominated, last spring." This ia ao credit to the bosaas and a disgrac to the county in which such .bribers ara permitted to thus conduct such affairs. I ths slat seriate Brownell, of Clackamas, introduced a bill, which, la onr opinion, should become a law. It provides that the legal rat of Inter est ia this state shall be 6 per cent The bill sbonld go a littls further, and provids that any evidence of a bonus Wing received, either directly or in 'directly, should make a not null and void. Such a law, we believe, would pat a stop to this money-grabbing bonus business. BCTMSMTATirs Clhtov ba intro duced a resolution in tb bout pro viding a special committee to investi gate the affairs of the Stat lsnd office. Th resolution was adopted and Mr. Cleeton made chairman of the commit. tee. W are not cognisant of any crookedness ia the state land office, but to give it an overhauling will do M barm, and at the asme time satisfy a great number of people who have been dissatisfied with the management f that office for a long time. SwuToa McGim's bill concerning eateries of state officers fixes salaries as follows: Governor, $5000; judges of the supreme court, 94000; secretary et state, $4000; treasurer, 14000; printer, $3500; school superintendent, 11800; reporter of the supreme court, 11000; clerk of th supreme court, 3000. All fees are to go into th salary fend, out of which the salaries are to be Mid. Appropriating fees to one's own use, or failing to keep a fee-book as provided, is punishable with 9500 fin, or sis months' imprisonment, or . both, vnd forfeitnre of office. Tftt Nicaragua canal bill passed the senate Saturday, only one member from Oregon, Hon. John H. Mitchell, voting for it. Mr. Dolph, although drawing 20 a day from tb public treasay, was in Baleru trying to get r-Ucle4 to e position that th peo pl of the state. do not seem , to want bim to bold... The, construction of the Kioaragna canal will be worth mill ions of dollars tooths t icl Ac coast, and it is just such measure as (hat 'Which :: senators tpeid-4V1look after. Dolph - lost supporter-when ha Wit -bis piatt :f &aijpx$Ttp&:p Oregon to in fluence V senatorial election.-Rose-bnry Rviw. ' firs' SSN4T0SUL DSADLOCt. The sanatoria deadlock at Salem has been on for pine days with no yisibl prospect for a change at the present writing. Dolph had forty four votes, or two less than enough to elect, on the first joint ballot, which number he held tor two days, whan two of his supporters went over to the opposition, claiming they had discharged their ob ligation to the caucus. The forty-two remained solid until Wednesday of this week when Cooper of Benton, who had previously changed from Dolph to Hermann went back to the former and th asm day Davis of Umatilla, who bed stood by Dolph all along, changed his vot to Lowell, still leav ing forty-two. Tli opposition claim that unfair meaa and misrepresenta tion was used in getting together and holding the caucus and they do not propose to be bound by such action. To this th Dolph forces make no at tempt to deny or explain, hence it is generally conceded that th charges made against th caucus are well founded. When tb roll is called the members rise and explxin their votes and give their reasons tor opposing cauous together with the methods used and in many instances giving the nam of the persons using such methods, which also have not been refuted. Representative Cleeton who opposed Dolph in the caucus has voied for him ever since, notwithstanding th fact that a petition was sent him signed by nearly every republican in this city requesting him to vote for Judge Moore of this eounty who bad the combined strength of Ihe opposi tion. The gentleman can, no doubt, explain his position satiefactorily, but up to date no reply to the petition has been received by the senders. Peti lions have been sent a number of the members both in support of and against Mr. Dolph, and in moat ioatanoea the wishes of th petitioners hsve been complied with by their respective rep resentatives. It is to be hoped the deadlock will soon be broken, so that the legislature can aettle down to the routine business of the session. TBt NICARAGUA CAXAL Th Nicaragua canal bill passed the senate of the United State last Fri day by a vot of SI to SI. Th bill provide for th issuance of 170,000,000 in Nicaragua canal bonds, each ac companied by th following guarantee : "Tb United States of America guar antee to the lawful holder of this boud the payment by th Maritime Canal Company, of Nicaragua, of tb princi pal of said bonds and th interest ac cruing thereon, and aa it accrues.' An additional $30,000,000 of bonds i to be issued without the United States guarantee. The total of $100, 000,000 thus issued ia to ba used in constructing the interoceanio ranaL The secretary of the treasury is to have general supervision of the proj ect, A board of 15 directors is to have immediate charge of the work. The United States is to receive $70,000,00 of the canal company'a sUk, in re tarn for guaranteeing the bonds, and ia to bold a mortgage lien on all prop erty of the canal company. Ths bill also provides that only the goods and material of American pro duction aball be used in construction, and that the work should not be done by corporations, in which stockholder of the canal are interested. There waa an amendment offered by Palmer, and agreed upon, giving tb president power to reappoint and retire director of the canal company. The bill is now before the houae, where, it is hoped, will soon be placed upon its final passage. To the Pacific coast this wilt be good news, since it has long been conceded that the Nicaragua canal cannot fail to stimulate business in every way, and more especially in tb wheat and lumber trade. It shortens th dis tance from this coast to Europe 6000 miles, or nearly one-h .If. which means that the frei ht rate will be greatly diminished on cargoes of wheat and lumber as well as all other cargoes f sport to Europe. It is estimated that a reduction will be had of $150 per ton on wheat I rum Oregon, Wash ington, and California. This in itself, when one figures the thousands of tons of wheat shipped anuually from these three states, is no small item. It is true, it will tnke some yeara to complete the work, bnt in the mean time the production of cereals and the development of our resources will be encouraged, so that by th time the canal is open for traffic this onset will be pr. pared to do business oa a larger scale. The passage of tbis bill by the sen ate is probably the most encouraging nws received on th Pacific coast (or a long time, and should it pas the house it will greatly stimulate bu-ioess throughout the country. Tftt 8t. Helesi Mist does not be lieve in Representative Yates' bill to letraigtrtea tip Washington county's north boundry hn and put a lew sec tions in the political division nature Intended tbem 'to be in. Resident of those sections, by lb -nature of the country, are compelled to com nearly to th county seat of "Washington Bounty, and often to through Hills biro and Portland to get to St, Hel ms, tbsir county seat. In justice to these peopl th bill should b passed. Forest Orove Tim. Th county sat of Columbia couuly is in thesam place now it was whan these settlers went on this land. What right has s few peopl to settle on a piece of land and then demand that it b taken away from on county and given to another Just to satisfy their personal interests They knew how far tfeey were from St. Helens when they look tb land. Columbia county haa a la rg indebtedness, and it ia not fair to deprive her of any taxable property while this indebtedness exists. For th benefit pf a few it would sdd to th burdens of th many. In this in stance it might be well to repeat that bristle are one of th Times' charac istics, strange as it may seem.. BtTTSt CQVNTXT WADS WANTED. It is decidedly to the interest of farm ers to have good country roads, and they would lose nothing if they would impress th legislature with the (act that less speculation and experimental politics, apd better highways would advance the business and sooiul inter esta of Oregon very materially. Bad roads make a farm more or less diffi cult to reach, and in ratio to the ea-e and comfort in going to and from it, ia its value fixed. Th coat of maiket ing th product of a farm is part of th general cost of production. When th market has to be reached over loada so rough that vehicles and aoi mala are wrenched and torn, to say nothing of th long tim consumed, compared to going to and fro over hard and smooth roads, th farm, how- aver rich the soil may bo, remains at a value much below what it should be as a producer and as investuiaot prop erty, at all time. But good roads cost money, and a good deal of money, to build, but when once they are up to the standard of good highways, the annual cost of maintenance is smalt It is a well known fact that nearly all the roads in Oregoo are impassable in the rainy seaenn, and are rough and unsightly in dry weather, and it ia a well known fact also, that too many farmers would rather waste $5 in wear and tear of team and wagon on poor roads than submit to pay $1 more in lax to iiave solid highwsvs the year around, Industrial development is retarded by bad public highways.and commerce Kuffers more than most people aup- pose trora th uncertainty of trad distribution and farm produce accu mulation at interior points. Doubtless it would surprise many farmers if they knew that the cost to them in time and injury to team and wagon in reaching a station fen miles distant over bad roads, ia leally greater per buahel of grain than the ordinary charge to a market 600 miles way, but such is the fact. Moreover, when the mads ara bad the trade of the country merchant fall off, and shrinkage in hi sales are felt in the jobbing centres by the falling off of orders to replen ish stocks. In fact, good roads exert a healthy and 'strong influence in all channels of trade, and everybody f.om manufacturer to consumer, participate in tb advantages. SENATORS ELECTED. George C. Perkins was elected sena tor from California last week. His principal opponent was M. H. De- Young of the San Francisco Chronicle, Governor Nelson was elected from Minnesota to succeed Senator Wash burn. Isbsm G. Harris waa re-elected from Tennessee. - Steven B.

Ths Mist is pleased to learn that an effort is being mad in lb legislature to re-enact the mortgage-tax law, and compel foreign money-loaners to pay their jtiat proportion of taxation. The first bill in that line has been intro duced by Senator Carter, of Lincoln and Benton.' It provides that all mortgages, deeds of trust, contracts, or other obligations whereby land or real property situated in this state is made security for the payment of a debt, to gether with such debt, shall, lor the purpose of assessment and taxation, be deemed and treated as land or real property. All mortgages, ded of trust, contracts, or other obligations, whereby land or real property is made security for the payment of debt, to gether with such debt, shall be asuesn-d and taxed to the owner of such secur ity end debt in the county, city, or diatrtct in which the land aftveted by such security is situated. A debt se cured by land or real property situ ated in no mitre than one county ia this state, shall, for tb purpose of tax ation, fee deemed and considered as in debtedness, and th person owing such debt shall be entitled to deduct the amount actually owing on such debt on the first day of Jury f eacrh year, as appears on record in his county, from his or their assessment.
