Thev make marriage almost a farce. In stead of making more lax, let us tighten the reins and make only one offense sufficient for absolute divorce. Let these loose grounds be only sufficient to obtain condi tional separation. It may be right that un congenial spirits should not be obliged to continue the responsibilities of marriage ; but thev should not be allowed to jeapard tae the happiness of others .

Their three days of confine ment have expired, and they will retire to some other city to obtain board aad lodging for a few days at a time. The number of tramps prevalent is alarmingly large. Most of them are impudent fellows, high toned in their way. One called at a residence in this city a few days ago and asked for some thing to eat. After giving him the accus tomed woman's lecture the Lady of the house started to prepare some bread and butter for him and send him off to eat it. "Well, if I can't have a warm meal," he said, "I won't take anything." "Then you can go, was the response, and he went A big sized raw hide would be a good remedy. Bev. Beenlnger's Let-lure. Last Friday evening Rev. Rominger lectured at the Congregational Church, in this city, to a good audience on "Germany and the Germans." The lecturer was re markably fair in his treatment of the Ger mans, bringing out their good and bad qual ities, and giving a clear idea of the country. Rev Rominger is a wide awake talker, orig inal in his style, eloquent at times, and at tracts attention as a lecturer as well as a preacher. Lectures like this have a benefi cial influence on a community, and deserve encouragement. Worth a Dexea I. It V Our exchanges throughout Oregon speak very highly, without exception, of the Set- ler's Guide, issued by Mr C G Burkhart.of this city. It is worth a dozen State Immi gration Boards for the County. It is to be hoped its influence will bring only a good class of people to Linn countv. We do not want the tramp element here, too lazy to make a living anywhere. Tramp at Corvallis, Thursday of last week several tramps boarded a train a few miles beyond Corval lis and insisted on riding. As they could n ot be driven off they were" asked to ride in an empty box car. When in the car it was detached and they were left behind, being obliged to foot it to Corvallis. On the way they robbed a squaw camp and five of them were afterwards arrested and fined. A Peraaaaeat Depot. The Democrat is informed that the Ore gon Pacific will build a permanent depot sometime this year, on their property a short distance southwest ef the O. & C. Depot, being situated about where Robin- ton held his circus a year and a halt ago, near tne residence of Mr A D Barker.

In the Incipient stage of the progress of our State great care should be taken in or der that our developments may be beneficial to succeeding generation!. In the one mat ter of railroads, public policy in commercial matters demands and Inter-commerce rela tion between them and in many States this system Is fully underway. One company must but for another or have Its track open to other companies upon terms prescribed by law. And so it will be with the people's thoroughfare all over our country in time. And railroad corporations are beginning te submit to the Inevitable with grace and f cleverness. There Is a bill before the Leg islature authorising the 0. 11. ft N. Com pany to bridge the Willamette at Portland. 1 hc BhottM !u,,.V 1 111 j"1 1 1 wn.it u is doing 111 tnis case. 1 here win ne but one bridge built for railroad purposes at Portland and all railroads should have the right of way over this bridge If built. Usual lv these structures are built by members of some particular railroad corporation, but of a seperate organisation for bridge building and all mads are charged a toll for crossing the bridge. In some cases In the east a toll as high as fifty cents a passenger has been charged for crossing a bridge on the line of the road. Freights also have this tax to carry. Now shippers of the Willamette Valley do not want to be hemmed in by any railroad in the way of heavy assess ment for such a state of things might lead to extortion. Now Is the time to say what the conditions shall be upon which this rail road bridge at Portland can be built. Have it done by the Legislature so the future may demonstrate the wisdom of the act. If there are Attorneys in the Legislature.of the cor poration Intending to construct this bridge, It would be very natural for them to look at the project as lawyers rather than true and impartial representatives of the people's wants. Hence there should be no vented or exclusive rights gi yen fox building this bridge and the Legislators faithful to the peojle should see that this Is not done. The right to build should depend on the use the bridge Is to be put to under State control The bridge I needed. It is a necessity for every railroad in Oregon. The terms for using the bridge by railroads generally should be based upon the interest on the investment that is tlte coat of construction, maintain ing and wear and tear. Every company using the bridge s.unild pay its proportion of this Interest. Money can be had to build this structure for five per cent. This prop osition to divide the expense would be just to the people upon a basis that the Legisla ture could manage. The State is wholly interested in this bridge, and now that we have a national inter-State commerce law that must be fullv tried before its feasability can be determined the State should provide for the management of this bridge in the interest at the people. It is predicted that the inter-State commerce bill will be injuri ous to the interest of the "ZSorthwcet It so then comes the greater necessity for Oregon to control her corporate thoroughfares at once. The people appeal to the considerate member of the legislature In this matter and for them to see that these roads and bridges are sustained upon their merit alone. We think that the railroads in Western Oregon should be fairly dealt with. They are too antagonistic, we mean roads of dif ferent ownership.to allow rates much above a living rate. Not until they are greatly above this should thev be disturbed. One road i in the hands of a Receiver. It ha struggled long for an existence and has scarcely found it. Another road Is coming into or rather going easterly out of the Val ley a an experiment, hoping to aid in peo pling the country through which It may pas in order to obtain traffic enough to live. The most favorable consideration should be given to these roads by every member of the Legislature, not one of whom would put a dollar into them upon an investigation of these hazardous expert ments. And above all should our law makers see that the great railroad bridge at fori land i open to no more favorable con dilion for Eastern Oregon than Western. There are other bills that should be con sidered. The repeal of the bill creating the Board of Agriculture i a mistake and it should not pass. The bill creating a Board of Public Charities is no doubt intended to apply more to its officers than any body else. It is a mistake. It ought not to pass. There could be some Legislation had, that would bean improvement upon our school system. The bill to prevent the use of cigarette bv persons under 16 years of age, is a good bill, and would be better if it were 60 years instead of if. SojOl'BXBB. Btaslaess la Business. The Corvallis Ckronkl feels aggrieved because there are no wharfage privileges at Albany except those owned by the Oregon Pacific, and relieves itself on the subject. Now business is business. If the O. R. & N. desires wharfage privileges here let it buy them. We have a big frontage, and land can easily be bought for the purpose. The O. P. has the same right to spend 535,000 for wharfs that any business man has several thousands for advantageous lo cations. So far as Albany is concerned! while at the present time Its people favor the Oregon Pacific, we are , nevertheless, in favor of always having competition here. We are not hunting monopolies. The more wharfs established here the better It will suit our people, whoever builds them. As the paper referred to wants a remedy we suggest that the proper one is for the O. R. & N. to build a wharf here. The idea of referring to the fact that the O. P. has the only two wharfs here,as working against the Willamette as a free avenue of commerce, is as ridiculous as it would be for a man to complain because he could not find a vacant store just located te suit him to place a stock of goods in.
