i lite gmOTt, FRIDAY F1SBRUARY 22, 1884 The Presidential aspirants step as if walking on eggs. Even logan'a foot fall is soft. AH things except Keiter considered this Congress has been a pretty decent body so far. Mr. Boutellt has rendered the coun try sreat service. He has made the bloodv shirt ridiculous; It is a very chilly dy when a polit ical campaign is not going on either in Philadelphia or Ohio. iJ Is Senator Logan willing to become President of a country that restores Fit John Potter to the army? Governor Hoadly nominated ex Governor Foster as State Trustee of the State Insane Asylum at Toledo, and the Democratic Sanate of Ohio re jected him. It is suspected in some quarters now that the grandson of Thurlow Weed was the man who invented the Merey letter. Henry Villard is not a very poor man iter all. It is given out that he will manase to save $ 1,000,000 from the wreck of his fortune. Present indications in NewjYork are, that the "machine" will support Gov ernor Cleveland as the Democratic Presidential candidate. Twenty-nine amendments to the Con stitution of the United States have been offered during the present session of Congress. A canvass ef the Texas Legislature shows that Mr. Thurman is the tirst choice of the Dsmxsrata of that body for President. In our recollection several newspapers nave made great men, but very few great men indeed have ever succeeded in making a newspaper. It is said that the Pennsylva nia del egation will attend the next National Democratic Convention gsolid for Ran dall for President. The Republican battle-cry, in case the hi jody shirt proves a failure, which is now probable, will be free whisky and surplus revenue. Senator Anthony attributes bis re cent illness to thexeessive use of cig arettes. It is bad onongh to (be a Rhode Island Senator, but to be a cig arette smoker likewise! Merciful heavens! The Republican press is beginning to denounce the Fits-John Porter case as a bore. That is generally ths cse with those who find an old lie growing unten able. President Arthur, in a recent conver sation with soma old friends, admitted that he was a partial convert to tho doctrine of Spiritualism. Still they do say that the President sees fewer spirits now than formerly. m mm The population of the Union doubles very 25 or 28 years. By the year 2050 it will be 800,000,000 ; and 320 years from now, 1,600,000,000 ; that is, 100,000,000 more than the present population of the globe. m m The total shipments to San Francisco of coal from the Carbon Hill mines, Washington Territory, during the east year was 140,135 tons, and from Seat tle during the past twelve months 139, 140 tons. The total shipments to Cal ifornia for the year from Paget Sound will raach a million tons. The manner in which personal prop erty escapes taxation is graphically il lustrated" in New York by the differ ence between actual wealth and that listed for taxation. In that city alone the difference amounts to $1,205,287, 348. The appearance of the malignant lit tle Virginia bos, Mahone, as leader in the "bloody-shirt" cimp-ttgn will pro bably havo the efiect to keep self-respecting Republicans from enlisting un per that fLg in the Presidential contest this year. The person who could be persuaded to accept the diminutive but spiteful Virginian for a commander must be himself a spoils hunter of the smallest and meanest variety. During the presidency of Thomas Jefferson a relative appIiedto a place of no great consequence under the fed eral government. In his note of reply Jefferson freely conceded the personal fitness of the applicant, and said that under other circumstances it would have afforded him much pleasure to make the appointment ; but the fact of their relationship rendered such ac tion improper, and he was therefore compelled to refuse. The patriotic and warm-hearted ne groes of the District o Columbia have declared in favor of John Logan for President, and Col. Tom Ochiltree, the Independent party of Texas, has come out fiat-foe ted for Arthur. As the ne groes of the District of Columbia have no status at the polls and as the Inde pendant Pjirty of Texas has one vote we unhesitatingly declare that Mr. Ar thur is ahead in the great scrub race for he Presidency.

Congress, some yean since granted 48,213,040 acres of land to the North ern Pacific Railroad company to aid it in building its road across the continent. It was stipulated and provided in the congressional act that the road should be built in certain specified times and under certain other conditions. The Railroad company complied with the terms of the grant to the extent 01 title, to 10.075.200 acres of the land, but they failed to comply with BY B . ft the law as to the remainder, 37,537,840 acres. The feeling in coogross is that this unearned remainder of the grant should be declared forfeited. The Oreyonian says that the boards of trade as representing the mercantile classes have petitioned congresn to not proceed against this grant. That paper is of the opinion that the body of the people of Oregon and Washington Ter ritory are opposed to any further favors being granted to the company, but that they would oppose any etlort to deprive the company of any just right which they possess. The Oregoftian, however takes the position that the co-upany has an equitable right to the unearned unit of the arant. Those conversant with the Oregonian and the manner in which that paper is.conduoted, will not be surprised that that journal take sides with tho corporation as against the people. The truth is that the company acquired no equitable right to these unearned lands in consequence o having built the rosd, though not in the tim urMirilil bv COOSreSS. If WO understand it, the position of the Ore- goitian is this : It' the company had completed the several parts of the road within the time and times provided for by congress as the terms upon winch the company should acquire title to the lands granted, then the company would have become possessed of the legs' tital, but iaasmuch as the company com rile ted the road, but not in the time m provided for by congrSas, then they became possessed of an equitable inter est or title to the land. Thia claim is based upon the mere quibble that when the company failed to build the road in the time provided for, congress neglec ted to declare the grant forfeited. Con gress and the great body of the people of the country believed when it made this grant to the Northern Pacific cempany.that if it failed to comply with the terras of the grant then the lands remained in the government. We see no soundness, nor sense far that matter, in the views of the Orego ninn that the railroad has an equity in the unearned land grant. Congress, as the agent of the eople, Said te the Northern Pacific company : If yn will build certain portions of the North em Pacific Railroad in certain titties prescribed by u, then we will give you certain of the public lands. The com pany built the road, hut not all portions in the time prescribed. The company had full knowledge and notice of the terms and conditions upon which they were to acquire the land, and if they failed to comply with these conditions, we bold that they could acquire no equities in these,9imply because it built the road after the expiration of the time in which congress specified that the road shouldbe built. If it is the duty of congress, as has been held by the Su preme Ceurt, to declare the forfeiture iu such cases, then we bold that con gress should do so now, as the time elapsed is not unreasonable." And further, if allowances for the railroad are to be claimed by its friends and paid agents, then we think that allow ances should be made to congress for not declaring ths forfeiture sooner. It is unmistakable that the Oregonian speaks only for the railroad side of the question, and the people must speak out boldly in sustaining Senator Slater in his attempt to get congress to declare these unearned lands forfeited. rBOCLAMSTIO.

Somo time since we oalled upon Mr. Clark, editor of ths Willamette Farmer, and several other Republican editors to define the term "free trader." Mr. Clark is the only one who has bad ths courage and candor to define the term, and we must say that we admire the frank way in which he doss it. Ths Fanner had, (as all ths Republican papers in the state do,) called Senator Slater a "free trader," became he is op posed to restoring the high tariff duties of 1867 on wool. The armer substan tially says that "free trader" is sne who favors the admission of foreign goods duty tree. This, of course .means an entire removal of all duties upon all foreign goods imported into this coun tiy. Ws think the Farmer' $ definition to be eminently correct, explicit and simple. But in giving this definition the Far nut places itself in sn awkard position, for every one must know that Senator Slater is not s "free trader" in that sense of the term. In that sense there is probably not a "free trader" in the congress of the United States. Not ons man in a hundred in the United States is a "free trader.' Msrrissn, Carlisle, McDonald ajul other Demo crats ef their way of thinking are not "free traders," but are in favor of reduction of the tariff to the point where it will raise enough revenue to meet the necessities of ths government economi cally administered. Hence they are revenue reformers, but not "free traders." Mr. Sister in s speech on the tariff question in the United States Senate, delivered February 2nd, 1883, declared himself ready to vote for pro tection, under schedules designed to raise needed revenue, to all the manu facturing industries of the country. Us would make revenue the prime or lead ing object, snd protection the incidental or secondary object of a tariff duty on imports. Does Mr. Slstsr say sny thing in his letter that indicates tbst be is a "free trader t" Certainly not But the Farmer says that Slater is s "free trader" because he does not favor a restoration of high duties on wool, fiut Mr. Slater does not say that be wants wool and all othsr imports sd mitted duty free. The Farmer must extricate itself from the dilemma into which it has been thrust by its own act. DMtfM B ITM TATB H1IK1I III. COMMIT.

Tewnsend Democratic papers please copy. SMiSft A correspondent of the Weston Itad ex writing from Adams in Umatilla county makes use of the following sig nificant language to w inch we invito the attention of the Northwest News and other Republican protection pa pers : "Now while the political pot boils in other portions of the county, it does not even simmer in Adams. Ws are more interested iu the forfeiture of the land-grants and the reduction of the tariff duties. W e are nearly all rapub!icsns but we favor those measures or in other wordf, we sre nearly all Slater men.'' "Republicans who are iu doubt as to the proper course to pursue in, the future are comparing the records of Mr. Slater and Mr. GdOrge on these ques tions. It is not difficult to determine how we will choose." "It is peculiar to observe the unani mity with which the democratic doc trine of a revenue tariff is being accep ted by all parties, republicans as well as democrats, especially those republi cans who represent the bone and sinew of tbe land. They are no less out spoken in their approval of tbe demo cratic Measure, to forfeit tbe land grants unearned b ths railroads." CHEEK. The Democrats of Pennsylvania are pronouncing in favor of S. J. Randall for President. Mr. Randall's honesty, integrity and ability are all unques tioned, but the Democrats ef Pennsyl vania are by no means modest when they attempt to force a candidate upon the party who in no event can carry his own state, while be is not third choice of the party in the other states. Of what avail would it be to nominate a Pennsylvania man who cannet carry his own state and is weak in all others. Unless public sentiment in the Demo cratic party changes, Mr. Randall will not be nominated. A STBBV AT BOLUI N KtPEKHK. "Senator Dolph, of Oregon, baa very snlsrgsd views concerning the impor tance of his senatorial position. Last Tuesday night, at ths President's recep tion, there was inch a long lins of oar- Lift . a. rtsges, and suoh bad rnanaaenisnb of them, that somo of tho guests did not reach the Whits house until the hour for the olose of the reoeption. Dolph got inside the White house groundi at 9:30 p. ii. Here he found his carriage blocked so long tbst he became desper ate. Stiokinff hia lisad mil r K. window, be bawled to the driver of the cp WWW WS WSJV carriage in iront of him : "Get out of S SB k A af M the way. I am Sanstar Dolph of Oro gon!" Thejdrivor invited ths Senator irom uregon to "go to Halifax." The S. M. senator nt this got out ic the rain and walked up to the occupants of the of fending carriage, and complained of the driver's impudence. Tho people polito- ly told Delpb to mind bis own business l bey belonged to Senator Palmer's psrty. They sdded in polite pbreseol- ogy that it was a good thing to knlWoot u itor further research, but on the enough to go in when It rains. Ths Oregon senator)thereupon promptly re tired. Palmer, who was In ths second carriage in advance of Dolph, employed strategy and finally broke the blooksde of carriages. He beckoned to s police man, aad explained to him that the president was waiting for him. This faithful offioer got Palmer's two oar risges up ahead ef every one else, while tbe unfortunate senator from Oregon nsver reached tbe White house st all. Ths above cams as s special dispatch to ths Orcgoumn under date of 17th inst, and hence it ma; bo regarded as true. But it is only characteristic of the msn who bsd to bsve three Pullman Palaos cars to Lake him snd family to Washington." 0MMMWI. une of tbe beaotifal consistencies of tbe motives which actuate high protec tionists is shown by an organisation of protectionists ia Pennsylvania whose object ia to "boycott" all dealers la rrench goods until the embargo of France against American pork products shall have been removed. Those Penn sylvania folks have for years been clamoring for s tariff schedule high enough to shut out foreign imports from American markets, and now when France does to us practically aad direct ly wbst our Pennsylvania protectionists have been wanting for years to do to Franco, tbsy begin U sqnsal. But it is not to be wondered at for the whole line of motives is a selfish one. It is given ont tbst ths leading col ored men of Georgia and Florida are irreconcilably dissatisfied with their re lations to the Republican party, and are determined no loagsr to set with it. Te this and a convention baa been oall oJ at Uaiossvitle, for Tuesday next, to determins upon a coarse of action that promises increased advantages to their LOCAL CORRESPONDED HISSIXSISI. ITEMS.

THK MOUftO HI II Dl It Kditore Democrat : My attention has been oalled to a y resume in the Nutth West News s 12th inst, of my article of recent which appeared in the Dkmocuat respecting the ancient mound buiidtrs of this county. Tho News is honest in so frankly aoknowlodainir its iraOranoo oi tne existence in Uregon of such mon- t- k -- w s - uuieut vt antiquity as alluded to, but seems to presume that bevond the limit ed circle described by its knowlodge of emuoiogicai uistory of this cosst, none aiu iu stepping test they also come in evutiict wiin insurmountable mvs- teries as it apparent! y has. It expressed an opinion that tho writer of the srticle in the Dkmockat was trifling with ths oredulity of thoso whoso interest in antiquarianisni is laudably awakened at any item pointing iu that direction. Mr. Finlaysoo, of Purest Grove, who bad personally inspected these relics verified the original announcement very aptly through a subsequent issus of the Newt. The Newt in answer to Mr. Finlay son's rejoinder, satisfactorily apologues intimating that the slight jocularity it indulged in, in its former article, was only intended for levity and contrary says "suoh discoveries doservgT las greatest consideration and shoul be mads with care, so ss to carry car- tain prooi oi tne iscis, etc." it con tends that these mounds cannot be coeval with those of tbe Mississippi valley, for whils ths latter probably antedate our time thousands of years the former could not be more than a few centuries eld. Ia support of this laUer theory it says strings would not be preserved in tne ground through oen lories, and braas thimbles sre in truth brass of any form, is of recent oiigin While srgumsnt snd criticism, respect ing individual theories, are anxiously courted by any ons deeply interested in these occult mysteries, probably if tbe News would consider lor a moment that these skeletons were found, with a ingle exception, above the original sur face with added earth from foar to five feet high heaped over them in such a shape as to cause all Calling water to drain away, and that probably tbe only moisture they were at any time subjec ted to was ths little tbst might have been absorbed at the time of interment from tke surrounding soil, it would con clude the statement that these strings were yet in tact is not so improbable as it first imagined. We mads these ex cavations in ths middle of wioter.when the natural ground is full of water, but found a uniformly dry soil throughout. Sub-marine foasils that ere by nature very perishable hsvo been found seven thousand feet above ths level of tbe sea, buried under the soil of ths mountain top, and in a remarkably good state of preservation. Geologically they were deposited there when the ocean occupied tbe apace now composing, nol only dry land, but great mountain heights, and either from chemical action at thia alti tude or from the exclusion of atmos pheric influences by being under tbe surface, they have maintained their original continuity. That the free cir culation of both air and water was excluded from these relics, found a few weeks ago, is trot, and tbe preserving iatluenco that might have been exerted by tbe copper tubes encircling these strings and contiguous to tbe piece of matting referred to should be duly cox aidered. As to tho origin ef brass thimbles, I don't know that wo have any definite data, but brass as an article of utility, being a compound of two metals, was first introduced in its pres ent form, and patented, but little over a hundred years ago, but it bad been aaed.combined differently, much longer. A generation before tbe Trejaa was, Jason, who bad command of the Argo nauts, was promised tbe golden fleece en condition that he plow a certain piece of ground with fire-breathing oxen that bad bra ten hoofs, and then sow it in dragon's teeth. As this story ia given by historians of Homer's time, snd long before the Christian ra, it is net probable that such an unreasonable link of superstition would hsvo been so sacredly preaerved,or brazen at all men tioned, had they not bad at least some knowledge of its congener and in fact its manufacture. Frequent allusions are made in ancient history, both bibli cal and profane, of tbo employment of brass fer utility and adornment. That there was a race of mound builders that preceded the American Indian, there is not room to question, and that they were measurably skilled in some of tbe important arts,cannot be gainsayed. Then, since all the compo nents of brass are to be found on this continent, what reason have we to claim priority in its manufacture t Ic may have been one of the lost arts. America was discovered, according to history, by the Scandinavians after their colonization of Iceland and O reenland, as early as tbe year one thousand, and aettled in tbe state of Massachusetts. In 1170 Modoc, son of the Prince ef Wales, is supposed to have landed a small party on tbe Virginia coast. What intelligence or necessity forced these people to discover and manufacture we have no record. The coast of Oregon was discovered about tbe year 1592, nearly three hundred years ago, by the Greek navigator DeFuca, but whether bis voyage on this coast assisted the aboriginese in making any important discoveries we are not told ; but this we de know from tbe time Oregon was awarded a place on the map,it has maintained its identity, and unbosomed for tbe world's inspection many curious and valuable trophies, but it has not yet unfolded to the-inquisitive mind whence came, or whither wont the mound builders. If the oak tree,42 inches in diame ter, mentlooed In my former article, that had fallen to the ground from old age or other cause aside from the woodman's ax, sprouted from the acorn and grew to such huge dlmen tions since the completion of the mounds, as we verily believed from its location and surroundings, -con sidering the known slow growth of ths oak, and that this was a very large tree of its species, and further, that It had fallen down, so far as known, before the first settlement of (he place by civilised life, 38 years ago, these circumstances alone are sufficient to place the construction sf tho mounds many hundred years back. Far enough back to forsooth to dispute priority with the Oriental Mounds. Again, for 33 years, the exterior of these mounds Is positively known to have been undisturbed except since being fenced up from the inva length offh dale sion of stock, the growth of under brush has been aided. Now add to this recorded 83 years,tho age of indi vidual recollection of" the oldest ndiaas that then existed, say 66 or 70 years, and one century will have elapsed with neither history or change n the mounds ; and, by the same chronological calculations, we can easily grasp the unwritten history of tho two proceeding generations, and then only bo In consultation with the history of tho great grandfathers of tho flrjt savagos above mentioned, which Is not at all overdrawn or im probable a second century has then past and we are still in darkness. This direct lineal history we now have, If Indian lore Is to receive any credit, and Erentinflr this u i lm- probabto preposition to be true, then if these strings remained fur two hundred years without decay wny not for many hundred more lu the same place and under tbe same in lluenccs. If exposed to alternate rain and sun of this climate for two months they would no no more, but we have undisputed knowledge o their preservation under the influence in which we found them for thirty- three years. These were the only weak points noticed by the Newt In the report of our findings, nd since nothing pool tive can be known at present, I have offered the most plausible theory that presented Itself to my mind. Since the announcement made In the Dcmooeat, several persons on whoso land these mounds sre situated have made overtures to me to ex tend these investigations oo their premises, and have promised that they shall remain undisturbed unti such time as 1 can accept their offers For these courteshrs they have my thanks, and If nothing Intervenes ere the lapse of many months I will make such researches, and with de served cars, tbst tho means possessed will warrant.
