Among ths Repnblicsn aspirants for

tioned, and it is claimed that he is
working up n lit t ie strength. Wc can
harlly think Tu IgO R is.t would allew
his nume te bo buffeted about f.r any
ofCce. Tho oath betook was net to
accept anv other than a judicial ofliee
du'itig tiio tvi in for which ho was ele t
el. This is required of bo'h S i-hmus
and District Judges by the constituti. n.
T eay that a toBatorahip is a judic al
ollice is trilling with o serious matter.
Xo man who has taken an oath of
that kind iu Offdot to obtain an office,
the only condition ou which ho receiv
ed if, csn fares wear biaBBOll Bo far ns
to ignore that oath. No honest man
cati IllllOOIIItllll ISj snd none would aim
to. Therefore we cannot seo bow
ndgO Raise can accept of any other
oflico tintil his term expiree. Judge
Watsons case is claimed io bo some
what different. The V. S. District
Attorney has judicial power. Ho does
even a Pros.-cuting Attorney for tho
Stato. And the oflb-e ii aeid to be a
fnri.Hi judicial one, and is m viewed no
doubt by Judge Watson himself. Rat
there is no excuse f ir a judge to ignore
this oBth and accept of any other ofliee.
But no one will be disappointed if
I Judge Boino labors for the oilier ef U.
S. Senator ; his past political career
would lead us to expect any thing
from him to further bis end".

Thia week, says the Corrallia r7oattf
has marked an important ntsgd in the
pregreoi of the work. The contracts
for the three tunnols between Corvallis
and Vaqsina have boen let to Mr. J. A.
BugVeo of San Franciseo. The lengths
of the two tunnels on the descent from
the Summit into tho Yaquina valley are
750 aud 350 feet, and that just below
Mr. Napp's houso G00 fot. The work
is to begin within two weeks from
812111112 ths ceatraets and the tunnels
and approaches have all to be completed
by the eud of July next. From Mr.
Bagbee's well known character as an
energetic and capable contractor we
have no doubt that this portion of the
work will bo get through well on time.

This N t mjsf unmistakable recog
nition by Congroas of tho importance
of the work being carried on by the
Oregon Pacific Railroad Co. Now
that this bill has passed and wo havo
every reason to bellovo that nt least
$00,000 will bo appropriated by Con
gress for work oo tbe Yaqulna bar,
no one can doubt that tho Ore
gou Poets will soon give
tho inihtinelto Valley aoother
outlet. And wo do not see now
why tho () P R R cannot have iho
full Huppolt of tho entire people of
Oregon. Tho Northern) Pacific Itail
road, by tho publication of their new
circular and map, boldly announce
that Tacoma will bo their western
terminus. Their lino passes direct
from A in t worth north of tho Colam
bin to that city, a id Portland Is left
away ofT to the south. This change
of the western terminus is madefon
aeecountof Tacoma's advantage ns a
h i p water shipping point, and Port
land is left in tho ahado. Tho poo
pb: of Oregon should now unitedly
support tho O P R It and thus
assist io opening an Oregon port to
Ore;'., i bippltlg.
While sneikiog on thi subject we
ml;;bt also say Cvit vork will begin
in earnest next week on the Oregon
I'aeifl;-. Fully JO0 Chinese will bo at
work by the lost of this month, and
agents arc now in Portland engaging
1 000 more. J II Hugbce, of Ban Fran.
clsco, to whom has boon let the con.
tract of rutting tbo three tunnel),
will begin work next week, and will
finish by Auguit 1st. He built the
tunnels on the N. P. C. K It. In Call
fornij, and many others, and is known
as a tusher. Passenger coaches, bag
gage and express cars havo i con
shipped from New York via Panama,
and the material will now arrive at
Vaquiua Bay as fast as vcanch can
bo chartered to de work.
Ir makes no difference whether
Arthur vetoes tbo now Chinese bill
Off not, the position of the Republican
party on this momootou? quoslioa is
now known. The members of the
party on this Out aro not in occoid
with their Kistern brethren, but are
in their power. The eastern llepub
lieaus who are in favor of enacting
laws preventing K jrepean labor from
cumctiug wuli our New Kngland
manufacturers, uro ..ot iu favor of
laws to prevent tho Mongolian sieves
from eotupeting with our poor West
ern laborers. It certaiuly will not
tab long for any thinking man to
mako up his mind ns to which party
he should unite with.

Ties. Frank Pixley, editor of the iJ-n
Francisco Arjoiiaut, is ths beat writer
and en of the beat orators ia tbe Re
publican party of California, and has
always stood in the front rsnk among
its leaders. Just sfter the Chinese bill
hsd psssed Congress, and bsfore it had
been vetoed be wrote as follows :

lnim arrote.l, rxcept through vtoUnce, diortlcr, con
fusion, and war here In our port of San Fraociaro la
our street would have been enacted eoenee that would
have shamed our civilisation. That we have been
spared wtlnossinj; these thinga ia due, uot to the par
ty of moral ideaa and advanced political intelliiceucc,
uot to Republicans, but to the Democratic party ; not
U Oopuhhcau statesmen, but to the Dotuoerallu pol
iticians. After the bill was vetoed by Arthnr,
Pixley biesks out m tLis tra iner in the
Argonaut ef April 8th :
The veto is an acoinplithed faot. That it is a want n
iolaliounf an honorable and inteinev t iutical ooui
pact ontoreil into botwaotrth peyt mi n iiartr and
the people, no intelligent Itepublioau doubts, and no
honest one will deny. That it la a frroaa abuse of the
constitutional prerenal Ivoof the presidential office, hy
a Republican preaideut we cannot ignore. That lead
in,; K-puhllraiis of all parts of the couutry, ontaide
of the Chinese belt of State, have betrayed their oar
ty, forfeited their personal honor, It ia not acccasary
te attempt to conceal. That it iaa piece of impcrtiaen't
egotism for Mr. Chester Arthur to have set up hie opin
ion upon such a questioa as thia. his moat arSent ad
mirer will not dispute. That tha term of twenty years'
reslricUon of Chinoeo labor imjiorttUon ia the cause
of ohlecUon to th bill is worse than an evasion ; it is
a deliberate lie. A bill for twenty years may have
been roiH-aleii in twenty day a if Contrreaa had so de
hired. To aayRhat it ia an evasion of(the treaty, or in vio
lation of it letter or it spirit, is another He, the proof
oiwhieh isatlni-dcd by the testimony ef ths coiiinm
xiouor who negotiated the treaty. To say that any of
the provisions of tho restrictive measure are In viola
lion ut law is the afterthought of no honest mind. No
lawyer in either branch of Congress made the auj
geslion. The democratic party haa
beeu true to its pledge in this respect. Tho Republi
can party has boen false to all lla professions. It' has
betrayed the people, and it haa dona it under false
pretenses, ami with hjug and fates oxeusos.
What wu ou:. it to do that la, what wa Republican!
ottht to do may not bo hastily determined. Our par
ty uu Uii coitt h.u boaa I al all through this contest.
It went down with I U color nallod to the mast and
flying. That it can rally and sur
vive for 'the purpose of maintaining the skeleton ot an
organization may be p.vuib!.'. Whether even so much
of an ff i-t is doairabio may be an open quesUoa. We
are not prepar.d to a.1mli that we are willing to be
come the tail of a national organisation which has ao
shamefully butrayed us. At present
this Chinos quaaUon Is a political nOa ; it la to be
worked out by political methods ; and it w ill not bo
come any who are Ripubllcans to blame other Reaub
lioaiif, it they shall deem It best to oast their destinies
with a party which, on this question, has never betray
oil tho paeple, and never violated its pledges.
No one can deny the truth of Pix
ley' remark?, and any one can see that
the enly remedy ths laboring man has
is through the Democtstic party.
