seems to us that the wisdom of this
must be apparent to every American
who lores his country with the di-
vertton and loyalty of a patriot. If
this canal should be built with Euro
pean capital, Europeans would natur
ally control it, aud assume a protec
torate over the territory through
which it runs, to the detriment of
American commerce and in direct
violation of the Monroe doctrine
above stated. Count de Lessips re
cognizes the doctrine, and admits
the justness of the same as follows:
"People will have too much sense to
believe that I would present any op
position to the teachings of the
Monroe doctrine. The principle of
that doctrine is eminently just. No
body should try to combat it. I have
always held that view, and I approve
entirely of the principle."
Without the aid of American cap
ital and American influence the canal
cannot be built. But with these it
can and will be. Notwithstanding
the "beautiful avocation" organ
holds up its hands, in holy horror
and bndulces in a whole column of
diatribes against President Hays and
the Monroe doctrine.
REPUBLICAN COUNTY CONVENTION.
A Republican Convention for Benton
county is hereby called to meet at the court

Portland April 21st, 1880, to nominate a full
county ticket, and to transact such other
business as may properly come before the
convention.

Corvallis, March 6th, 1880.
THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
Since the agitation of the project
of building a ship canal across the
Isthmus, connecting North and South
America, much has been said and
written about the Monroe doctrine.
And especially since President Hays
iu his late message to Congress re
cognizes the doctrine aud asserts
that it is applicable in the great in
ternational scheme of construting this
canal, has the doctrine in some quar
ters been severely critisized. Plere
tofore all parties have recognized and
approved this time honored and
national preeept. The "doctrine"
was first proclaimed by President
Monroe in his message to Congress
on the 2nd of December, 1823.
A dispute had arisen wit h England
respecting our northern boundaries.
Mr. Monroe said! "In the discus
Hiins to which this interest has given
rise and in the arrangements in which
they may terminate, the occasion has
been judged proper for asserting as a
principle in which the rights and
interests of the United States are
involved, that the American conti
nents, by the free and independent
condition which they have assumed
and maintained, are henceforth not
to be considered as subjects for future
tolqization by any European power."
Fropi the above declaration we get
the'wea of the so-called Monroe
dbetjjne. It put at rest at once, and
until now, the question of the rights
of foreign powers obtaining a foot
hold on the American continent.
Although at first the nations of
Europe . deemed it a very radical
doctrine, and offensive to their theory
of colonization upon our soil, yet it
has come in later years to be recog
nized and sanctioned by them as

of-that fool-hardy
e quite familiar,

imiliaojfcfw
ad
A Correspondent of the Montana
New Northwest, writing from Omaha,
and who has had good opportunities
of learning what is intended, says :
" Surveyors will at once be put on
the route from Ogden to Portland for
a broad gauge road, and no doubt a
considerable portion of that line will
be built this year. I think the route
will be through Boise City. It seems
to be the purpose to make the Utah
and Northern a Montana line, and
make a western section with the
broad gauge."
This is good news for Oregon. We
need all the outlets that we can get
for our products, and thereby freights
to this State will be greatly reduced.
A melancholy picture is drawn by
the correspondent of a Vienna paper
of the condition of the Turkish army
in Albania. Begging, he says is no
longer regarded by ti e Turkish sol
dier as a disgrace, and the streets of
Janina are full of soldiers who stretch
out their hands to the passers by for
alms in broad day. At night they
attack the peasants and rob them of
all their valuables. The Turkish sol
diers are, indeed, so much in want of
money, owing to their not having any
pay for more than three years, that
they often sell their arms, and the
military commandant has found it
necessary to issue a decree strictly
forbidding this practice under severe
penalty, when discovered.
Here is a good one from the"plumed
kniffht."
Mr. Blaine being asked how he
liked President Hayes, said: ''Well, I
will tell you a litt le story. A parcel of
young men went out on a fishing ex
cursion up in the woods of Maine one
summer, without any guide, and the
question was, who should play cook
for the party. At length it was
agreed that one certain member should
undertake the job, and that the
first one who found fault with the
cooking-should take the cook's place.
So they all made faces over the abom
inable fare for some days without say
ing a word, but at length a particu
larly atrocious apple pie caused one
of them to exclaim: 'Well, this is the
d dest pie I ever did see but Hike
it' "
THE COLUMBIA BAR.
Capt. Flaverhas been making personal in
spection of bar soundings for several days
since his return from San Francisco, and is
himself fully satisfied that it is only a ques
tion of very brief time, so rapid and broad
cast is the shoaling process, when it will be
impossible for deep vessels to cross. The
north channel, along Sand island from the
head, is filling up as fast as does the south
channel.
Pilots on the bar all agree that unless some
measures are adopted for permanent improve
ment of the channel it will not be longer
considered safe for vessels to enter or cross
out with more than eignteen feet draft of
water. Aatorian.
No true friend of Oregon's welfare
can read the above without realizing
keenly the magnitude of this disaster
to the commerce of the State. Capt.
Geo. Flavel for 25 years and almost
daily observer of theColnmbia bar,
largely interested in Astoria, antici
pating a railroad to that point, has
not allowed a statement of this kind
to creep into print without fully un
derstanding the advantages certain
to be taken .by San Francisco. Rates
are now out of proportion and have
been kept so by misrepresentation.
Now the rates can, and with a sem
blance of justice, be increased, and
all this would severely affect Oregon.
The anxiety for an appropriation to
improve the Columbia bar is not suf
ficient reason for the publication of
conditions most unfavorable. Every
paper in the State has repeatedly said
Central and Eastern Oregon requir
ed, aye, demanded another outlet,
and all this talk of the Columbia bar
only intensifies that feeling. We
ask and we expect the present Con
gress to give aid to that point which
offers the easiest and cheapest solu
tion of the transportation, question.
Columbia may require immediate
assistance; if so give it, but not to the
of other points equally deserving and
those who have waited patiently for
exclusion years as if to confirm all
the possible and probable evils to
trade.
The Oregonian of the 23rd, pub
lishes the following:
The agents of an English marine insur
ance company here inform us that hereafter
the rates on all vessels crossing the Colum
bia river bar drawing over 20 feet will be
materially increased. This will tend to con
tine our traffic to vessels of moderate size
and so indirectlv to keep freights at full
figures. It is to be regretted that such ac
tion should have been found necessary.
There is one way out of this trouble
of such vital consequence to every
citizen of the State, urge our mem
bers to stand firm in securing an ap
propriation for Yaquina Bay. To
fail is to fasten an unneccsary and
burdensome tax on the industry of
Oregon. Every man should consider
it his individual loss or gain and act
accordingly. Rialto.
Cost of Fences. Nine years ago
the statistics gathered at Washington
showed that the fences then in exist
ence, had cost $1,747,549,931. The
additions since have raised the cost
of the present fencing of the country
to fully $2,000,000,000. A million
dollars is a pretty large sum to count,
or even to conceive of, (we cannot
count a million in the working days
of a month, counting oneeach second
and ten hours a day), but here are
two thousand such millions. The in
teiest and repairs amount to over
$200,000,000 a year, and the rebuild
ing of decayed fences nearly as much
more, making our annual fence tax
far more than the entire cost of the
army, navy, general government ex
penses and pensions, together with
the interest on the public debt.

The nomination of Justice Field
would be a big advertisement for the

YAQUINABAY AGAIN.
We find in the Ongonian of the 23rd two
very significant notices in relation to the Col
umbia river bar and its relation to the ship
ping interests of that river. The Aatorian
is reported as saying, ' ' Pilots on the bar all
agree that unless some measures are adopt
ed for permanent improvement of the chan
nel it will not be longer considered safe for
vessels to enter or cross out with more than
eighteen feet draft of water," and in the
Oregonian' San Francisco report on finance
and commerce it is stated, "The agents of
an English marine insurance company here
informs us that hereafter the rates on all
vessels crossing the Columbia river bar draw
ing over 20 feet will be materially increased.
This will tend to confine our traffic to vessels
of moderate size and so indirectly to keep
freights at full figures. It is to be regretted
that such action should have been found
necessary," Nor is this ali, for we were
informed by the same paper not many days
ago, that the tonage rates from Eastern
ports to Portland, exceeded by $5 per ton
the rates charged to San Francisco.
It does not require much ability to sug
gest who are to bear the burdens of these
heavy freight charges, but when we are in
formed that under certain conditions these
charges are to be "materially increased"
we are forced to the conclusion that Port
land must either be a deep water port or
take advantage of the nearest point
where a deep water port is possible, or give
way to a large commercial city on the Sound.
Of the first proposition it seems barely pos
sible on account of- the immense amount of
money necessary to accomplish anything of
importance in deepening and maintaining a
channel at the entrance of the Columbia.
Then again be it remembered all efforts
to this end are only experimental and, while
this is going on, if attempted, the N. P. R.
R. may have reached the Sound, the diffi
culties of bars, of shallow water, and of
large appropriations by government avoid
ed ; and the products of Eastern Oregon
which should flow past our doors are carried
up far to the north arfd the 1 enefits of the
same lost to this State.
Of the second proposition while it may
not be what Portland will desire to contem
plate, that is, take advantage of Yaquina
Bay, yet, if with the removal of the soft
rock forming a barrier to the enterance only
some 300 feet in and ont, this removed
and of sufficient width, vessels drawing 23
feet will find no difficulty in entering, and
when in will lay as snug as in a dock at
Liverpool.
If the improvements contemplated for
Yaquina Bay are successfully completed
there wonld be no reason for any higher rate
of tonnage from' the East to this port than
to San Francisco. Ibis reduction, and the
reduction on tonnage, pilotage, and time
would be more' than equivalent to any loss
Portland might suffer, and in the meantime
I would aid her to retain what her pluck and
energy Las built up, viz, the commercial su
premacy of the north-west. v
FROM ALSEA BAY.
Editor Gazette : This, our "win
ter of discontent," is fast passing,
literally and figuratively. Oregon
is booming with railroad enterprises
and everything is lovely on the Alsea.
Never was the prospect for the
development of our country so flat
tering as now. We are listening
with open ears to hear of the appro
priation for Yaquina liar, which will
insure our railroad at oiice. After
reading the communication of a
"Shipmaster" to a London mercan
tile paper anyone unprejudiced can
see that it is a public necessity to
open up to the shipping world a less
cumbersome and more directoutlet to
our graiufields. Think of each ship
paying $250 to $500 towage beside
the lighterage and the numerous hin
derances and disadvantages that
shipowners have to encounter before
they get in and out of the Columbia
and Willamette rivers. Congress
ought not, in the eyes of all these
glaring facts, hesitate a moment to
appropriate the full amount necessary
to remove the reef at Yaquina bar.
Just think of the thousands of dollars
our toiling farmers could save could
they ship through this natural outlet,
Yaquina Bay.
There were during the year 1879,
seventy sail vessels with cargoes
passed in and out of the Columbia,
at an average towage of $375, which
would foot up to the nice little sum
of $27,250 bar towage, beside what it
cost from Astoria to Portland and
back, and also the lighterage. No
wonder the tonnage is raised on us
on the slightest provocation. No
wonder shipmasters seek redress. No
wonder, then, that the people of the
Willamette valley want a more direct
and practicable outlet. Then let ns
strike while the iron is hot for now
is the time " the accepted time."
"Now is the day of our salvation"
Oregon is now booming with rail
road enterprises and prospects for
the general development of the great
resources of the North Pacific are
brilliant. One might think that this
isolated section of the country, the
Alsea, will remain in the background.
It cannot, " The sun shines alike on
the just and the unjust ;" and my
dear Christian friends, when the sun
of prosperity is made to shine on
your inland valleys and hills, our
verdant earth around the beautiful
Alsea Bay will bud and bloom like
the rose of Sharon, as well as all the
rest of these southwestern slopes that
lie so gracefully under the benificent
rays of the sun and nestled so sweet
lv by the side of the sea. Then if
the sun shines on your wheat fields it
will also shine on our garden spot of
Oregon.

It is an evil, however, which abroga

San Francisco, March 22. A de

constitution of the United States.
In rendering his decision, the judge
quoted an unusual number of author
ities. He said that if the right of
the legislature ta restrict corpora tons
in the manner intended by the law
in question should be admitted, there
would be no limit to the harm which
might be accomplished. The Chinese
are here and are granted all benefits
of trade or travel by solemn treaties

to declare tht corporation shall not

light to declare that Germans, Irish
or Americans shall not be so employ
ed. Further, they conld exercise the
right to declare that employes a rail
roads shall be of certain creeds. If
the fact of the laws and their enact
ment wjere not so plainly before us it
would e dfficutt to believe that the
legislature could declare a law so
seemingly a contemptuous breach of
traty obligations. Inconclusion J udge
