The State Kcpub'icJM" Central Com

o'clock 1. M. of Wednesday. Messrs.
W. II. OJoll, J. W. Watts and J. N.
l)oljh were npimted a committee to !
prepare a call tor a liepnblicaii Suite
Convention, which they did, and the
report was adopted. We haven't room
for the entire proceedings this week,
but will give them in our next issue.
The State Convention is to meet in

Primaries on Wednesday, April 19th;
county conventions on Wednesday,
April 26lh. In the apportionment of
delegates, Linn county is given ten del
egates. IM5TT BE AIABXU).
Our Democratic cotemporaries liave,
thus early in the season, commenced tlio
cry of "oorrnption, corruption !" 4-A
good round sum of corruption money is on
Its way hero from Washington," say the
Democratic journals ; "beware! beware!'
Ben Uolladay still troubles these poor ink
slingers dreams, while the announcement
tliat ex-Senator Williams is to visit Oregon
soon, throws the whole ''kit and bilm "
into spasms. This charge thata corruption
fund Is on its way from Washington, to be
expended among Democrats for the benefit
of Republicans, is the same old cliarge that
lias been wrung in our ears' on the eve of ev
ery election for the hist decade, tlio idea
seeming to be that by its continued iteration
tley might pcrliaps be able to convince
tliciuselves that there was some truth in it.
We predict, however, tliat no matter how
mub, or how loud and long continued, the
cry . of "coi ruptiou' from Democratic
sources, not a dollar will our Democratic
friends succeed in obtaining from or through
Republican cliannels during the coming
campaign, to induce tliem to join tlie Re
publican party, the great party ot progress,
till. HI 1 , J ...... - -
Union. The Republican party has a large
majority in tlie Stafe of Oregon, and there
is no call for purcliasing .my of tliese
poor devils wlio seem so anxious and ex
press so much alarm ; tJjerefore we advise
tliem to alay their fears, look elsewhere tor
stamps to secure whisky and otlier Demo
cratic luxuries with which to sustain tlieir
shattered nerves during the coming fight.
WE WAVT A RAILROAD.
. ' Almost the first question propounded by
the new comer is "why don't you build a
railroad front some point in the State to
some point on tlie Central Pacific?" And
then tliey tell us wliat we know all the
time, if you had a railroad connecting the
Central Pacific, so tliat people could reach
Oregon without the ocean part of the trip,
your State would fill up with a desirable
population almost before you knew it.
They would flock to Oregon by tens of
thousands ; every train would be loaded,
nd soon. Instead of a paltry hundred thou
sand, Oregon would contain a lialf million
of people. Thousands of people are deterr
ed from coming to Oregon through a dread
of the six hundred miles ot ocean voyage.
Every effort should be put forth to build a
railroad connecting us with the populous
East. The effect of such an enterprise
would indeed be magical ; few have an ade
quate idea of the' wealth that would flow
into Oregon in ofie ' uninterrupted stream,
oitening up at once our1 vast resources, and
peopling our valleys and dales with an en
terprising and liappy people. Without a
railroad our progress will be slow, tlie
cream of the emigration remaining in Cal
ifornia rather tlian trust themselves to tlie
dangers and inconvenience of tlie ocean
voyage. Build tlie rail soad and In a few
years at most Albany would be a vast and
wealthy city, it not tlie first, the" second
city in population and wealth on tlie North
ern Pacific. Let us have tlie railroad.
X okdford, in a recent letter to the New
York Herald, says that more than 24,000,
whites and blacks, have removed from
Georgia, during Use past five years. The
next five years will witness a larger exodus,
unless Democracy in that State extends
justice to the laboring classes the poor
whites and blacker Georgia 1ms every
thing to make of herself a grand manu
facturing centre. But she will grow less
prosperous every year, unless she adopts a
more generous and humane policy toward
her working men. ,
Says the Bangor Whig, speaking of
Blaine as the Republican candidate tor tha
Presidency : "As Blaine goes, so goes tlie
Union. With such a leader, accomplished,
eloquent, sagacious and intrepid, the Re
publican party of the Union will make the
Centennial campaign ring with a jubilee
of enthusiasm that will sweep over tlie
country with irresistible power." ; :

Our N. Y. letter not having reached
us until a lew hours before going to
press, we are unable to give it entire.
The following paragraphs, however,
arc full of interest :
srniXG FASHIONS.
With the mild days about tlie first
ot February, the counters fcliow light
camljrics and wool goods, for prudent
people who take timo by the forelock
in matters of dress, Th?y must do so,
for in these days it takes, by moderate
computation, two weeks for a woman
working all the time to make a dress.
This is I he allowance by the most skil
ful dressmakers, and it not seldom
takes that time to do the trimmings
alone. For the comfort of ladies who
do their own work, I am happy to say
that the old style of dress, with .long
plain skirt and waist attached to it,
will be worn the coming spring Such
models arc on display in the windows
as leading styles.. The prettiesj, fabric
out, is a tine check in black and white,
crossed by a single bright color, which
gives it a fresh spring-like look, while
it is quite modest enough for tlie street.
As it comes in soft wool goods, plain
woven, both light and durable, and
very wide, it will bo a favorite with
ladies, as it is sure to bo with men be
cause it is so bright and pretty.
THE EXD OF AN ACTOR.
Poor George Fox, the great pantom
imic, now in a lunatic asylum in Stock
bridge, Mass., has been pronounced
hopelessly insane, and in danger ot
of dying any minute. Poor Fox ! He
has delighted more people than any man
living, and this is his cud ! He labored
for the public all his life, and he dies in
an asylum, without a dollar, bis family
depending tor their subsistence on the
charity ot the profession, the memliers
of which are generally almost as poor
as himself! This is the regular ending
of an actor. A miserable, starved life,
and death in an alms-house or an asy
lum. Edward Eddy, an actor ot as
much reputation as Edwin Forrest
twenty years ago, was buried last Sun
day by the Masons, and at their expense.
His family have not a dollar to live on
and they are catii.g the bread of charity.
It pays better to debauch the people
than it does to either amuse or instruct
them. The actor dies poor, tho teacher
starves on a salary of $600 per year,
the author lives in a garret, but the
whisky-seller, the gambler, and the
keeper ot prostitutes roll in carriages,
and are c'.ad in purple and flue linen.
The times are never too hrd to support
a vice. When limes arc close, men stop
their iiewpjiapcrs, but were the times
ever so hard as to compel them to quit
whisky and tobacco? Not much. . Xo
matter what other business languishes,
the bars thrive.
DEFALCATIONS.
Defalcation- are as common as paving-stones.
Window ran away from
Button with $230,000 ot other people's
money, Babbitt's cashier steals $500,
000, and now a young banker absconds
with all his customers' money. This
last case is a little peculiar. The young
man squandered it all upon a woman,
but who do you suppose that womau
was ? Why his own mother ! She is a
very handsome widow, forty, who has
a passion for fashionable life. Tlie
young man, licr son, is a weak, good
fellow, who loves his mother as very
few sous do, and can refuse her nothing.
When he went into business for himself,
she emerged from the humble boarding
house where they had lived, and took
elegant bouse op-town, and commenced
living in the style of wealthy people.
She set up a carriage, she had the
house full of servants, she gave ele
gant entertainments, site bought dia
monds, and camel's hair sliawls, and,
in short, she lived at a rate that made
all her old friends turn green with envy.
v The son, alt this time was furnishing
bcr with the means for all this extrava
gance, knowing that the end was rain,
but his mother liked it and he was too
weak to say no. She probably knew
tliat she was living beyond his means,
but the madness was on her, and she
could net stop. The end came last
week. The young man and his mother
sailed for Rotterdam, taking with tliem
every dollar that was in the concern and
all that could be borrowed, begged or
stolen. It is supposed that the abscond
ing, like all the rest of it, was the in
spiration of the mother, for all who
know the young man believe hira to be
honest, if left to himself. The loss to
depositors will loot up $000,000, and
there is as much more owing on. notes
on the street. This .vast sum ot money
has been spent within five years, and
that it was spent there ' can be no
dool tor as near as can be ascertain
ed, they had mighty little to take
away with them. ; The fine house was
dismantled, though they had sold quiet
ly, all thai they comd without exciting
suspicion. Curious easel "Men have
been ruined by women, times enough,
but who ever heard liufore of that
woman's being one's own mother.

A Votcl Man Uono ;
A day or two since tlie telegraph brought
us the news of the death of Rcverdy John
son. His d Oil Ih was as sudden as unexpect
ed alone, and without a moment's warn
ing, he was summoned to meet his God.
No one knows how his death was brought
about, but the theory of the physician, who
examined the body shortly after it was dis
covered, is thi;: "Mr. Johnson ' either
t tumbled over a piece of coal, or,"" being
suiiied with vertigo or incipient symptom?
of apoplexy, and striving to save himself
moved towards the west, staggering along
by tlie northerly side of the executive man
sion and at each step his body gaining
additional momentum, so ; tliat having
readied the door into the basement, he
swayed around to the south and iell, ids
head striking a sharp corner of the granite
base of tlie house, which gave the first
wound in the head, Reaching the pave
ment of rough cobblestones, a second wound
was received in front of the first. At this
instant, probably, the bones of tlie nose
were fractured, one joint of the second fin
ger ot the right 'hand was dislocated.
Whether the subsequent struggle may ac
count for tlie abrasions on his knees and
fingers of tlie left liund, curt be postively
asserted. Tlie wounds in the scalp were
accompanied with fractures internally.
Tlie bones ot tlie cranium' a'id base of the
skull also, with a probable rupture of arter
ies at tlie base. Death must have resulted
instantly."
Democratic Convention.
The Democratic State Convention is
called to meet at Salem, on Wednesday,
April 20th, ISTfi. On the receomuieiida
tion of tlie Central Committee, the county
conventions will probably be called on Sat
urday, April loth, at 1 o'clock P. M.
During the 'grasliopper' year, the imp
utation of Nebraska increased 80,990, while
Oregon, that year, only added to her popu
lation by emigration about 3,000. Had
there been a continuous line of railroad con
necting Oregon with tlie East, the tables
would have been turned, and Oregon would
Iiavc added to her population SO, 000 people.
We can have the railroad just as soon as
our people wake up to a full realization of
the facts in the case. Oregon must build
the road. It is useless to wait expecting
outside capitalists to build the road tliey
can employ their money lor years to come
in other and better paying enterprises. If
tlie road is to be built, it must lie done by
the combined efforts ot our peopleevery
man in the State must help.
In the House of Commons on the 15tli,
Disraeli moved a bill enabling the Queeu

PREPARING FOK CKNTKXM.Vl..
The Special Committee appointed by the
General Ticket Agent's Association of the
United States to arrange and recommend a
schedule of Centennial passenger rates,
recently held a meeting at Philadelphia
and will report to the Association at its
special meeting to be lield at Louisville,
Ky., this month. Ten out of tlie thirteen
members ot the committee vero present,
and Western roads were well represented.
The Erie road was represented by General
Passenger Agent J. N. Abbott, who, in
conversation with a New York Tribune
reporter lately, said tliat the members ot
tlie committee all conceded tliat the amount
of travel next year, even in view of the
Centennial Exhibition, would depend large
ly on tho liberality of the railroads in giv.
ing reduced fares and extra accommodation.
Before arriving at a decision the interests
of each section of the country and of foreign
visitors were fully discussed. It was de
cided to recommend a reduction of 23 per
cent, on present rates for the round trip
from all points of the country east of Omaha
to Philadelphia or New York. The Union
Pacific was not represented in the Conn -
mittee, but will probably take part in the
action of the Association this month. It
is hoped by the representatives of tlie other
roads tliat these two roads will find it to
tlieir interest to make a similar reduction
for the round trip, but as "such an arrange
ment would affect almost their entire pass
enger traffic, and as tliey have no fears of
competition, a reduction on tlieir part
would be an act of great liberality. As
cheap rates will affect the whole country
about equally, and as the West will be an
object of as great interest to most Europe
ans as tlie Centennial Exhibition itself. It
has been decided to recommend a similar
reduction ot 29 per cent, on round trips from
New York and Philadelphia to allparts ot
the West. Tliese tickets wilt be arranged
in the form of circular tours, including the
great natural features of the country, the
principal cities of the interior, tlie Missis
sippi Valley, and the South. If tlie Union
Pacific comes into tlie arrangement, these
tours will probably be extended to all parts
of tlie Pacific coast.
Tickets will be sold from May 10th to
October 31st. They will be good for 30
days only from points east of Omaha, and
probably the time will be shortened from
points within a day's ride of New York
and Philadelphia. It will also be recom
mended by the Committee that round
tickets from the West be made good, east
ward, over one route, and westward over
another route. Thus visitors to the Cen
tennial can come eastward via : Chicago,
Detroit, Niajrara Falls and New York and
return by way of Baltimore and Washing
ton. Passengers will be allowed to stop
over at all -places on the route at pleasure,
except wit hiii- a certain distance of New
York and Philadelphia, which properly in
cludes local travel. In view- of the lact that
New York will be made tho headquarters of
me great majority or travelers, both domes
tic and foreign, who will desire to avoid
tlie crowded hotels of Philadelphia, and
who will regard the metropolis of the coun
try of equal interest with the Exhibition,
the difference in farelietween Philadelphia
and New York on round trip tickets, east
ward or westward, has U-cn fixed at $1
only. The fare from Chicago to Philadel
phia and return will be .'12, while from
Chicago to New York and return, by way
ot Philadelphia, it will be $33.
Excursion tickets at reduced rates are
already arranged " from-New York and
Philadelphia to Niagara Palls, tlie St Law
rence and the .-New England States. A
very extensive travel is rxpected from Cali
fornia. Many of the adventurers of lSi'J.
who have never been East since, will find
the Centennial a good opportunity for re
newing acquaintance with the eastern parts
ot the country. The influx ot Australians
and Mexicans through San Francisco, will,
it is thought, be very large.
All tlie lines are building additional pass
enger coaches under construction, and will
add many sleeping and drawing-room cars.
Extra trains will Tie put on each way. Mr.
Abbott said lie could not say what the sleeping-car
companies would do toward reduc
ing the prices of accommodation, but lie
thought they ought to m-ike a discount.
The four trunk lines will erect an Ameri
can tourist ticket office on the Centennial
"grounds, to be operated by the -companies
m coivxrt. The plan of the building will
probably be a model American railway
station. It is understood that trains will he
run between New York and Philadelphia
every 20 reunites during 10 hours of the
day, and ample uiy'J't trains will also be
furnished. Local rates have not yet been
fixed. The trunk line? will have ar.t'ug
to do with middlemen, and propose to give
the public the benefit of the commission
which otherwise would go to agents.
Appletim' Jovtrwl says that the condi
tion of Turkey will remind the curious of
tlio old rhymed prophecy which has dropp
ed out ot common recollection. It is said
to have been made in 1453 :
"In twice two hundred years the Bear
The Crescent shall assail,
lint If the Cock and Iinll unite,
The Bear shall not prevail.
"But look! in twice ten years iitfain,
Let Islam know aud fesir.
The Cross shall wax the Crescent wane,
lirovr pnlc and disappear."
It will be "twice ten years" next spring
from the conclusion of the Crimean War.
