the Oregon Central Military Road, for
which Pengra has been working in Con

subsidy for a railroad, to connect" with

say it ia, it is by far the beet mountain

1853, from the lost route, led by Elliott,
came injo the valley- They pointed ouf
the first house seen by- themafter-eioss

the hardships of the journey, spoke of a

From the Rochester" (N, Y.) Chronicle.
The Democratio ' howl about Grant'
nepotism is reduced at last to a piteous'
whine because or eigne positions unaer
the Government, which are distributed
as follows : :
Jesse R. Grant (father), Postmaster,
Covington. ' s
A. II. Sharpe fbrother-in-law), Mar
shal District of Columbia.
Frederick T. Dent (brother-in-law ),
Brigadier General and doorkeeper.
Casey (brother-in-law , collector,

Guatemala.
.Tmlo-- Dent fbrother.in-lawY Adminis
tration candidato for Governor in Missis
sippi-
Cramer (brotlicr-m-iaw ), recently
Consul to Leipsic. -
And this statement comes lroni tne
New York World, the leading organ of
the Democracy in the country. Let U3
see what the thing amounts to. Jesse
R. Grant was postmaster of Covington
before Ulysses S. Grant became Presi
dent. Fred. T. Deut was. advanced to
his present military rank of Lieutenant
Colonel in the line on the 31st of Decem
ber, 1867, and of Brigadier General by
brevet on the 13th of March, 1865, both
before Ulysees. S. Grant was made Presi
dent. Fred. Grant! was appointed a
cadet at West Pcfint 'two or three years
ago, while Andiew Johnson was Presi
dent. . Judge Dent ;is only, a candidate
for an elective office, and, as yCt, the
Administration has shown no disposition
to favor his pretensions. And, finally,
Mr. Cramer, "recently Consul to Lieipsic,
was appointed by President Lincoln or
President Johnson, we do not now re
member which. .-i
This leaves three cases ot "nepotism
for the Democracy to grumble about, and
in one case only that of Hudson is
the appointee a blood relation ot the
President. The office of Marshal of the
District of Columbia is always given- to
an intimate personal friend of the Lxec-
utive, and as Dr. bharpe undoubtedly
fills the bill in that- respect, and is both
worthy and capable, there is no good
reason why the office he holds should not
be given to him. So, in reality, the fa
voritism to relations, or which the .Presi
dent -has, been accused, displays itself in
the appointment of one brother-in law to
a coilectorship, and one cousin to an in
significant bouth American mission.
There are few men who would not have
done more for their relations than this

says second class fare from Omaha to

a figure as will enable all to take , a ride
