A bill is before the California Leg islature providing that the highest rates that shall be charged over any railroad in the State shall be three cents per mile for passenger travel, and five cents per mile for freight. It is probable that the bill will be de feated, or passed in so modified a fo:m as to be worthless in protecting the interests of the people against monopo lists who control the transportation interests in that State. This same question will probably como up in our next Oregon Legislature, and the people should see to it that Repre sentatives who will stand firmly by their interests be sent there. In the present state of affairs, with one man controlling almost the entire carrying interests of our State, the people are at bis mercy to an alarming extent and must necessarily suffer imposi tions in time to come nulesa the prop er safeguards are established by leg islation. We would not favor the crippling ot railroad or other internal improvement enterprises by burden some and onerous enactments, but we believe that the people's interests demand some conservative and judi cious legislation for their protection. KOEE OP THE rSUTTS. By the Radical disruption of the Oregon Legislature of 18G8, leaving an enormous sum of money in the hands of the State Treasurer, E. X. Cooke, for two years, that worthy (?) official was enabled to accumulate a snug little fortune, and we see by the Salem Statesman that he is building a palatial residence in that city at a cost of $18,000! What a precious trio ot Radical rascals had charge of our State affairs from 1806 to 1870! Woods, May and Cooke are syno nyms . for' Incompetency, Thievery and Rascality of the very worst type. And yet the same party that boost ed them into power have the ineffable cheek to ask the swindled tax-payers of Oregon to give their representatives another pull at the lactiferous ducts of the public treasury ! Decidedly Oxto It. The editor of the Statesman is still wrathy at the removal of Superintendent Meacham, and is especially mad at the way it was done. It seems that Corbett! fixed the thing up, and gave as an ex cuse that Meacham had recommended that the Catholics have charge of the Fort Hall Reservation instead of the Methodists. The Statesman, in alluding to this matter, loses all pa tience, and between d ns, lets fly the following: "In view of these facts, we unhesi tatingly pronounce the appointment of Catholics, or Methodists, or men ot auy other denomination, as auch to be Indian Agents, a pernicious failure." Xow, as the Statesman has pro nounced the dod-blamed thing "as such? an aggregious failure, we look for Useless the Onct to flop over a new leaf in his Indian policy and kick all the Catholics and Methodists, "as such? out of place, and let Sam. Clarke fix the Injun business up to suit him self. It doesn't amount to much any. way, and Sam. might as well be did dling about in that line as in any oth er harmless sphere. Axother Shot at Grant. The Illinois Legislature, which is largely Radical, had passed a joint resolution instructing their U. S. Senators to vote lor Sumner's one-term principle. This is a dig at Grant, and is prompt . ed by disgust at his no warranted ac tion in regard to the imbroglio be- , tween Gov. Palmer uid General Sher idan.' Illinois is evidently going back ou L lyases. . Boise City was partially flooded luring- the recsat storm by the over How of theXittls Cettnwood creek DAMAGIHG TO GEAKT. The debate upon Senator Trum bull's resolution to appoint a Com mittee to examine into the civir ser vice of the Government and unearth whatever frauds may exist, has caused a violeut flutter in the political circles of the East and is likely to result disastrously to Grant's Presidential aspirations. Tho advocates ot the resolution urged its adoption with great persistency, claiming that tho abuses under the patronage of the Government had become too glaring and iniquitous for further forbearance, and that immediate steps should be taken for their exposure aud correc tion. Senators Morton, Conkling and Sherman, who are pliant tools of tho Administration, 6toutly opposed tho-rcsolution, claiming that the Ad ministration was like Caisar'a wife, abovo suspicion, and that no such an imputation as this resolution convey ed should bo made against it. Sena tors Sumner, Trumbull, Schurz and Tipton, flanked by tho Democratic Senators, championed tho resolution and made it so warm for tho Aminis tration satellites that they were forced to pass a sort of white-washing res olution, in order to partially disguise their fears of an investigation. Senator Schurz, who bad sat upon the Committee of Retrenchment, to examine into the alleged frauds in tho San Francisco and New York Cus tom Houses, said : "This Committee did undoubtedly, believe that tho case was closed, for it had reason to believe that, when such scandals as it exposed were laid bare, the administration would jump at the chance to put an end to the disgrace; but it turns out that they were vastly mistaken, for the same scandalous sys tem of robbery extends down to this day, in spite of the exposure made by the committee." Senator Schurz con tinued : "The Senator asked also why we have proposed uo legislation to re move these abuses. The abuses were created by executive action in the ad ministration of the custom-house, ami they could be done away with by ex ecutive action. The Senator objected to what I said of the power which sustains this system. I did say (hav ing laid the evidence before the Sen ate) that when the most respectable merchants of New York had protest ed against this system of robbery; when the becretarv ol the lrc.umrv had time and again pronounced against it, and when ii is still sustain ed aud kept alive Jowls to this very day I did say, in view of this evi dence, that there must be some mys terious power sustaining that system stronger than a decent regard for pub lic opinion, and utrouger than the Sec retary of the Treasury himself." Senator Patterson, also a member of the same Committee, said: '"I do sav that there were inspect ors in the Custom-house in New York who stated before the committee, un der oath, that, in violation of their ofiicial oaths, and in violation of the laws of the land, they had taken bribes, and they took bribes every time they discharged a vessel, and I say further that the agents of the steamship companies told that they could not get their vessels discharged without bribing the officials." The Chicago Tribune, which is everywhere recognized as the mouth piece of the Republicans of the Great Northwest, in referring to this dam aging discussion, adds: "Thus the Administration, or, if you please, the Republican party, is convicted of hav ing connived at flagrant corruption in the civil service, even at the time when the people have, in tfce recent elections, declared with unprecedent ed vehemence their disapproval of such transactions ; and the more the rottenness of existing management becomes apparent, the more violent do Morton and Sherman become against investigation, and the more vociferously do their echoes in the Senate shout "sorehead! sorehead!" It is proven that the Federal patron, age ha3 been put forth to enforce party tyranny in Nebraska, and keep a scoundrelly Governor (afterwards im peached and removed) in office there, in spite of the wishes of the people of that State, and Nye cries out, "Envy, J ealousy ! ' You want to be greater than your master." It is made evident that the corruption which had gath ered under Andy Johnson's Admin istration in the States, continues to a greater or less extent at the present time, and Morton exclaims, with his hands on .his breast, "We have the best civil service in the world ; but you musn't investigate it. "No wonder, when the game of hid ing knaves in Senatorial sleeves has reached this stage, that men who have not allowed their sense of honor to be blunted by over-much participa tion in caucus-room chicanery, revolt at the crack of the whip of discipline over their heads, and that all the Sen ators ot the great States of Illinois, Missouri and Massachusetts, with' others from Connecticut, New York, New Hampshire and Nebraska, are found recording their votes against the "cut-throat" game. No wonder that even such a cool and ordinarily impassive man as Senator Trumbull is heard replying warmly to the ut terance of Morton, 'Well, if there is anywhere in the world a worse civil service than that of the United States, I pray God to deliver that people from it !' "And the Republican party, mean ing the masses who constitute it, and not the political merchants who have somehow got control of the Senate, will answ er, . 'Amen !'. And deliver us, also, from the odium of tolerating : such corruption.' To which end the party must be delivered from the ; leadership of the Mortons and Nves 1 who would cover up such corruption; 'instead of exposing aiul caring it." PACIFIC oASTi;ns. ..... . .
