Governor Penuoyer viWI to
appoint dtttegntM to the Mo
urougua anial convention t New
Orletuw, on the ground he ii
umUtorably opposed to Uie Inuuing
of government aid to any private
jeuterprlse whatever. Ibis ia. not
a suftioieiit excuse. He could
have instrneted.the representatlvw
to oppose the scheme for gnaran
twiugthe botnU of Uio Maritime
Omal Co. and work for natiohal
construction aud ownership, whieli
is compatible witb our trvaty with
Nleanuiiruti. It can not bo that
Governor Iunoyer'ia opposed to
national ownership of aucu an
important national highway, aw
it certainly cannot lie that he
views the construction of uch
waterway ;; , witb indifference.
There is no project now utootd,
not even the opening of the
Columbia river to coutiuuooa uavi
gatiou, that ia so importaut to the
people of Oregon as the opeuuig
of coiutuuuioatiou by vessels aerot
Central America, It would' give
Uie producer r better price... for
what he ships abroad and the
commuter a lower price for wlint
he imports, aud these two itenia
are the bulk of Oregon's trade.
Governor Penuoyer could not do
bo much for the people of this state
in any other way as iu finishing
the construction of the Xicaraugtia
canal.
II is reasous fur doing nothing
are not good, because aid to
private ctniphuy is not the ouly
way the object may be aeeomp
lushed. It is ouly a stepping stone
to government control aud future
ownership at Inst, aud the
gov eruor might advocate these at
oace
Listen to what a prominent
democrat eaya "The democratic
party has finally gotten full posses
siou and the people are anxiously
waiting to see whether or not they
have got the "sand" to fulfill the
promises made, but which they
have heretofore claimed they could
net carry out by reason of a repub
lican senate or a republican execu
tive. If they dou't, then I am go
ing to change my politics, and I
imagine lota of others will, too.
You doubtless observed that in the
last campaign the torchlight pro
cession aud band wagon seemed to
have lost something of their past
potency and that's whnt's the
niatter with many voters. Promises
ain't agoing to "go" unless they
are backed by fulfillment hereafter
with the average intelligent voter,
very few of whom expect to hold
office. , .
Judge Burch informs us that
we were wrong in stating liirtt week
that the salary of the school super
intendent had been cut down to
any less than 750 a year. The
controversy arises over certain fti-s
allowed the ,snperinteiidwit which
the court considers belong to Polk
county. The county superin
tendent still gets his salary, bis
office expenses, and if Intitled to
them, all additional fees. We are
very glad to know that our county
court so quickly resetits uuy' insin uation
empitgning its motives
towards our grand publio school
ystem in Polk countvi
THE demand fot a fish ladder,
properly constructed, to allow fish
to pass the falls of the Willamette
at Oregon City is as great as ever,
and petitions are being circulated
and largely signed, asking the com
ing legislature to appropriate
money for its construction. There
are hundreds of miles of the very
finest of spawning grounds in the
many streams emptying into the
Willamette that should be made
easy of aeeess to the thonsandt-ilof
salmon entering the Columbia river.
A fish ladder would do it.
Several weeks ago the Went
Side advised its hop-grower read
ers to be sure and not hold their
hops too long, as rumor had it that
New York state was selling its crop
so as to leave the declining market
for Oregon and Washington. The
rumor seems to have had some
foundation. The cholera scare has
also had a tendency to cause people
to drink less beer, and consequently
prices have declined.
Undek the present tariff laws
our country has reached a position
where the income from indirect
taxes fails to meet the. demands of
the government, and as a conse
quence the democratic party will
be called upon to legislate so that
a greater revenue may result. How
this is to be done is the questlou
the peopto ate now asking the
leaden of that party.

Tliere is every reason to believe that

thut way. Tammany is alreudy
pledged to send 5,000 braves to this city

but fair to believe that those excellent
