On the question of the constitution ality of the entire income tax the su preme court evenly divided, four mem bers being on each side, says the ttlobe Democrat. If Justice Jackson had been in his place the court would have decided one way or the other on the general question, and from what is known of Jackson's opinions as a strict constructionist it is reasonable to assume that he would have taken the negative side and the law would have been annulled. The importance of the figure 1 is conspicuously shown in this circumstance. Oftentimes the re sult of a presidental election has hinged -on the vote of a single state. For ex ample, New York turned the scale in 1844, 1848, 1880, 1884 and 1888. If f!norarln. which thai dpmrttrata had expected to carry, had remained io the territorial stage year longer the democrats would have elected the pres ident in 1876. Suppose just one of those seventy three electors who declared for both Jefferson and Burr in 1801 had cast for somebody else the vote he gave to -Jefferson I There would have been no tie in that event, the house of repre sentatives would not have been called upon to make the choice, and Burr would have been elected. The thought of the narrowness of the margin by woich the country was saved from the inmction of having Burr in the presi ' dency gives a chilly feeling to Amen cans even today. One vote transferred from the nineteen negatives to the thirty-five affirmatives in the presiden tial impeachment case of 1868 would ; have given the latter the constitutional two-thirds required for conviction and Johnson would have been removed, One electoral vote out of the total of 369, if changed from the republican to the democratic column in the disputed count of 1877, would have defeated Hayes and made Tilden president. Facts like these show the popular es timates of the first of the numerals need readjustment. We have mentioned the case of Hayes, who had just that margin in the electoral count. His title to the presidency, however, was as good as that of Monroe, who got all the electoral votes cast, except one, or as that of Washington, who cot every votp. Marcus Morton, chosen in 1839 by a majority of only a single vote in a total poll of over 100,000, was just as fully and truly governor of Massachn ' seltes during his tem aGrover Cleve land, with his plurality of 192,854 gained in 1882, was governor of Mew "York during 1883 and 1884. The tar iff of 1846, an act which has filled more conspicuous place in political discussion than any other measure in ' its field, possibly excepting the Morrill tana of 1801, was saved by the cast Jag vote of Vice President Dallas. In many crises the presence or absence of this needed -one vote has made or marred the fortunes of statesmen, pol icies or parties. IM PORT Alt T TO COLUMBIA COUNTY. Reports from the right-of-way com mittee on the Astoria railroad are to the effect that little opposition ia found among the property-owners along the proposed route. This is ss it should be. There is not a property-owner in Columbia county but what is inter ested in the success of the Astoria rail road, nor is there a man in the county who will not receive benefit from the enterprise if it is completed. It is, therefore, necessary, for the best in terests and welfare of the entire county, that no obstacle be thrown in the way of this very important undertaking. A million and a half dollars ex pended along the lower Columbia river at this time or within the next year or two would relieve onr financial condi' tion beyond comparison. While the road is under construction it would furnish a market for lumber, piling and labor as welt as for the products of the farm. After it is completed a market will be opened up at Astoria, which will increase as the city grows. And let us say right here that rail connection between that city and the outside world will be the means of Astoria growing as no city on the Pa cific coast has ever grown. We do . not mean by this that a boom, in the sense that term is generally used, will be the result; bat in view of the fact that Astoria is the best seaport on the Pacific coast, and on the natural gate- way, through which pan tha pro duct of the Willamette valley and itl laud empire, ehe will experience a steady and healthy growth entirely on her merit a a commercial point. Astoria will be to Oregon what San Francisco is to California, and we of Columbia county, situated between Portland, the great inland distributing center, and Astoria, the doorway to the world's couinierve, will become one of the moot thickly populated and wealthy sections of the Northwest. Again let us say that he who stands in the way ot this important enter prise is doing the county and it poo pie untold injury. It should be the desire of every good ciliten to place no obstacle in the way ot progress. Silver is again inclined to be on the up word move. Three weeks ago it was at about 69. Then it went up steadily until it just passed the 68 mark, after which it fell baok to 65. A rally then came, and yesterday it was at 67$. One of the causes of the advance is the prospect that the open ing up of trade in China will lead to a large use of silver in that country, and another is the general improvement in business in the United States, which ia increasing the demand for silver as well as for other commodities. The supreme court of Oregon has just banded down a decision that, while of interest to the general tax payer, it is of peculiar interest to the sheriffs and newspapers. The suit was one to set aside a tax deed. The supreme court holds that the tax deed is invalid for the reason that the first notice of sale was published June 6th and the last June 27,' the sale being held July 3d, making but 27 clear days. The law lequires the publication to ke for four weeks successively ; this means twenty-eight days. Sheriff Doan's action in not charg ing the penalty on delinquent taxes, we believe, meets the approval of the publio in general. If there ever was a time when leniency was a virtue it is at present. Taxpayers, however, have shown a disposition to pay as fast as it was possible and should continue to do so: but the county, like all other creditors, should not be too severe on the debtor class. This policy, we be lieve, will be for the best interest of all parties in this hour of depression. BCAPPOOSE NOTES. J. C. Johnson is projecting a full fledged creamery in the near future. LaGripp has fastened itself upon a goodly number of our people. Arbor Day was fittingly observed by Mrs. Pngh in her school in district No. 9. The marriage is announced of J. Hantle- man and Mrs. Caroline Striflink of Sc-ap- poose. T White has been among as counting np the earthly savings of our en ergetic people. In spite of the dull times a good deal of grubbing and other substantial improve ments are being made. School in district No. 1 has been post poned for a few weeks owing to the illness of Mrs. St Helens, the teacher. There is a crying need for a justice of the peace in Scappoose precinct, and it is cer tainly false economy to not have one in stalled. The spring crop of weddings has been tight. However, the season is a little back ward, and perhaps the near future may change the matter a little, that is if all signs do not fail. The county road petitioned for by Messrs. Johnson. Cline and others, running near Holiday's nursery, was surveyed and viewed out a few days ago, and it is re ported a right-of-way was secured agreeable to all parties concerned. The feeling that creameries are the proper thing is gaiuina bold of our people. Much to their credit, the day of the "ranch but ter" man is over, and if a dairyman expects to prosper at all he must fall into line with modern improvements, and enlist his in fluence to help out the creameries. It ia a wrong idea to believe that a creamery is not a benefit to those in the milk and butter business, and the sooner their antagonism is removed the better it will be for all con cerned. CJUATSKAN1K. G. W. Barnes, of Quincy, was a visitor last Monday. 8. Lindgren, ot Mist, was in town last week looking after interests here. Bobert Cameron is back again at the Sal- dent camp after his absence during th winter. N. Merrill and Frank Merrill were pas sengers for Portland on the steamer Mon day evening. . Arbor Day was celebrated last Friday by the school at Lower Beaver under charge of Miss Rhods John. Mr. Messing, of Mist, was over a few days ago for medical treatment. He has been off duty for two or three weeks. The steamer City of Frankfort steamed into our harbor Monday evening in place of the Shaver, disabled at Oregon City the day before. We noticed the steamer Vulcan in the Bearer slough last week taking out a raft of electric light poles for Charles Erickson and Herald Syverson, There has seemed to be considerable sick ness lately, judging from the fact that Dr. Hall has been unusually busy and bis horse brought into use erery day, The new medical law mentioned in your paper last week is likely to make it uncom fortable for some of the fakir medicine men and establishment in existence. Photographer Hobbs has been keeping np his reputation as a champion fisherman the past few days, and has been ably as sisted by W. H. Conyers and others. Ed McClure was trying la haul lumber from Edgerton's mill last week over a very bad road. He will not haul much until there Is an improvement in that direction. Samuel Kelly was noticed riding into town on his white horse last week, having been looking around the country for more lucrative employment than our town affords for a man and team at present. The new shingle mill men are being some what troubled in getting bolts enough to keep the mill running, but they are turning out some good shingles, and bare an abund ant supply of bolts in Beaver, which they are getting orer as fait as tides permit. We were favored Ibe first of Jat week witii one of the most entertaining lectures ojr people have ever been pr vileged to listen to. Rev. Quo, a presiding sldor in th M. E, church, while here, remained over Monday to deliver his lecture on the amusing side of army lite. There was a large audience gathered to hear it and most thoroughly enjoyed th privilege. W. K. Tlchenor came near losing hts new house recently from the effects ot a defect ive flue. The hous filled with imokt, awakening the family, and before the loca tion of the tire was discovered it bad gained considerable headway. Th essistanc of some neighbors, with th energetic work of th family got th better of the flames and saved the house with a loss of perhaps 9100. It was close call, however, and Will thinks he will either build his next chim neys himself or stand orer tL man with a club that does build them. There was a lecture on co-operation in Merrill's hall last Frida.r evening, delivered by Charles A. Fitch, ot Portland. He urged association of farmers and others to unit and purchase supplies direct from Portland, thut saving thes i all profit made by local ti-alero. It did not take an ordin ary listener ve v I- ng to conclude that the lecturer was talking in th interest ot cer tain parsons in Por .and, and what might be a tesspoonfull of benefit to th farmer would be a faoupfull fo- the Portland merchaut. These men who get so much Interested in farmers anil poor laborers often find the center ot interest in the re gion of the pocket book. Peter Herdklots was the victim ot a most unfortunate accident last week, causing a rupture to become strangulated. After two days of suffering he called In Dr. Hall, who found that a difficult and important surgical operation would be necessary to save the man's life. Getting Dr. Coley's assistance to give" r the it ation was performed at the man's residence last Tuesday and the parts put in shape. It was feared, owing to th man's age, 04 years, and some other r ther adverse conditions, be might not survive th op ration, but up o the time this goes to press, a week having elapsed, everything looks favorable for re covery. MAYGKK. The Johnson Bros, are cutting lota of lumber at present, Walter Severn and Billy Emery are fish ing, and w hear are doing well. W. K. Traylor, who has been quite sick foi a week past, is convalescing. John 8tockenburg has built a good, sub stantial board fence around his large oat field. Our school is progressing nicely, and we can make as good a showing along that line as any district in the county. The rain continues and it is putting off our road work very late this year, and the roads are getting very bad. but we hop to get some good weather before long. The Binger Hermann republican club meets on the first Saturday of each month at the Mayger ball at 8 o'clock in the even ing, and all republicans are cordially in vited to attend. Wm. Slaughter has been building a very neat house this spring, and it is finished in masterly style. Carpenter Croaker knows how to bnild a bouse and can work with the best of them. The republican club of this plsce met on Sunday la -it and installed new officers as follows:' President, A. Croaker; vice-president, George R. Wagner; secretary, Geo. V7. Mnyger; treasurer, Wm. Blackfoid, Delegates to represent the club at the state league which meets In Portland on May 22, as follows: Geo. R. Wagner and A. Croker. two of our best members. Last week there was an item in tbe Rain ier Review that was rattier out of tbeir line, It has always been before that the items from Delena were personals for the corres pondent's relatives, but George Wagner created a sensation by getting full, and then tbey had an item that was new. But Wag. says someone must oither die or get full to stir things up a little and take off some of the notoriety of their writings. Hoping tbe correspondent is satisfied, as I know Wag is. upper tide: creek. Cherry trees are commencing to bloom but early gardens are growing slowly. Our road supervisor has been making some much needed repairs ou this end uf the road. Mr. Anderson has bought a number of cows lately, and will sell milk to Mr. Koble who manufactures it into cheese. School commenced April 1st with Mrs, Walker, as teacher. Tbe district has sdded a much needed porch to the scboolhouse. There was a surprise party at Mr. E C, Jones' last Saturday night, it being tbe birthday of Mr. Jones. Tbe company was entertained with music, both vocal and in strumental, for some time, after which an elaborate lunch was served. All passtd a delightful evening. PERIS POINTERS. C. C. Moyer is on the sick list. Lester Bailey spent Sunday at Yankton A. A. Smith went down tbe river Sunday. 8. Rnck intends going down the river soon to work. Mr. and Mrs. Robert Frey spent several days in Oregon City last week. D. H. Pope is limi Ing around with a cat foot which be says la very painful. Mrs. Bailey spent Wednesday with her sister, Mrs. Ella Roberts, who is very sick at Yankton. Changed His Views. Oar AH A. April 13. In an interview tonleht Senator-elect Thurston announced that he had cliansred hts views on the financial question during bis tour fn the West. He nad always aeciarea in harmony witn the republican national platform, favoring m metalism. He is strongly opposed to the opening of the mints to the free coinage of tne silver product oi otner countries until an international bimetalic agreement has been reached. He is in favor, however, of tbe free coinage of the American product under legislation which wonld maintain the equal purchasing and debt-paying power of all American dollars. He predicted that the next congress would give no nnanciai legislation, for a rea-on that while there was a majority for free silver in the senate the president stood committed to tne gold standard. So soon as one political party is in bower in all branches. Mr. Thurston pre dicts legislation on tbe silver question, but not nelore. Much legislation, wuen it comes, be added, cannot be expected to meet the demands of the extremists on either si'le. It would be the result of compromise. He expressed the belief that the business par alysis was the result of the abandonment of protection, but be hart seen signs oi im provement during bis Western tour. Real Estate Transfers. . : ' 8.
