Wu notice that Mr. Clow, our joint St natmr for Benton and Polk counties, lias iiiiroduced a bill with this title, "An Act to provide for the inter- dianirr "f traffic by common carriers." We have examined the bill and find lh.it. ii "insists of only three sections. The lirst declares that all common carriers in the State, whether on railroads, or by steamships or barges, shall receive "without discrimination and so forward to their destination all passengers and freight passing o- r or by their railroads, or steam ships or barges, whether the journey shall have been beccun on their lines or on any other railroad, steamship or barge connecting with or inter secting their lines of communication at any point. The second section defines "dis crimination" to mean "any distinc tion in time, rate or method of transit and delivery." The third declares that every vio lation of the act shall be punishable by a fine of not less than $100 or . more than $1000, to be recovered by the injured party at his option in the Circuit Court of the district whew the head office of the offender is sit uated or of the district where the offense was committed. Do our readers see the point of this bill? It is just this--to assert once again at this most critical junc ture the old and safe principle, that the highways of the State are first of all for the use and benefit of the peo pie ot the State; that if railroads are in question, the people, through their legislators, can and will control them and that whilst it is not intended to try to fix fares and freights on any particular line, yet that the people shall have the free use of the roads to send freight and to travel over them, without arbitrary and oppres sive distinctions, and that the old rule of first "come first served" shall prevail. The effect of the bill is to give a fair chance for competition, and to prevent corporations from making distinctions in their business between freight and passengers, shipping throughout on their own line, and such as reach them by means of any other railroad or other means of com municalion. Every farmer, every sheep-master, every miller, every dairyman, every store-keeper, and every customer of the store keeper, is deeply interested 1 mi m nere. ine present nign, ana even exorbitant ratfs of freight, are what contribute more than anything else to keep us poor. And now the Senator from Benton and Polk counties is appealing for support for his bill. Let him have it and that heartily. This is no ques tion of the politics of the hour, but deals wih the real,- solid home inter ests ot us all. And rest assured of this that if the chains of monopoly are now broken, woe be to the man or men who try to bind them on the people of Oregon again. Through the press the people can make known to their representatives their sovereign will, and what we have to say is that if this bill falls to the ground from any lack of earnest and hearty support a heavy reckon ing is at hand for all, be their poll tics what they may, who shall in their places at Salem thus prove re creants to their sacred trust. Do not forget what we heard from Mr. Villard of the Oregon Railway and Navigation Company last week, and let us now prove if the Columbia river is under their control, and if Oregon is and is to remain their territory. "THE BATTLE OF THE WABASH." Under the above heading appears a letter in the Californicm for Octo ber. The letter in question was said to have been found among the rocks on the top of Mount Tamaepais, and its origin is ascribed to the mountain gnomes, or invisible police, which are said, by Spanish tradition, to frequent that peak on moonlight nights, and who are said to have power to fore tell the future. Byt whether the article came from its alleged ghostly authors or not it makes some state ments that persons who have read the signs of the times, cannot but feel a thrill of horror at the reading of. The date of the letter is supposed to be July 18th, 2080. It gives the nature of our United States govern ment at that period. The United States is described as being in a state of prosperity ; large cities have sprung up where now are barren wastes ; what are now alkali deserts are transformed into fields of waving grain, and lhe capital is at St. Louie. But the greatest change is in person nel of the people they are nearly all Chinese. The rulers and law makers are nriiiciDally Chinese. The whites are nearly all gone and the few that remain are nothing but slaves to the Chinese potentates. The different changes by whicl this result is brought about are clearly shown. They began by small beginnings, but lived economically, and amassed great wealth ; the no bleman from China and ladies from the higher families of this country were married, and family ties thus formed ; their wealth brought them power; they were always subservient and thus their gradual rise was not noticed, until they rose in their might and, by one decisive battle, over threw the whites, and declared them selves rulers of the country. We cannot think that this result will come to pass, and, yet when we look at the thousands of the almond eyed Celestials that are constantly coming to our shores, and the ad vancement that they are making in the trades and industries of our na tion, we' are almost forced to look for some such denouement. It is well known that there have been mar riages in high life, on the Pacific Coast, in which Chinese gentlemen and American ladies have figured as principals. Of course jsuch marriages are looked down on now, but may they not after while become more common, and a relenting people look with less disgust upon them. These marriages would bring the Chinese and whites into closer com munion, and they, by a free use of their money, secure the results spo ken of. When a crocodile is first hatched a very small animal can destroy it, but if it is left to grow, it soon be comes a powerful and destructive reptile, and exceedingly hard to kill. It is juBt so with the Chinese element. It is now in its infancy, and it would be very little trouble to stop its growth; but if we neglect it, and let it keep growing, it will become like the crocodile, a danger ous element, and one that will require a great effort to check. The people of the Pacific Coast, and the Atlantic States as well for the Chinaman is already pushing his way eastward should look well to these things, for the time may come when they will see the effects of this element, and be unable to help or defend themselves against it. We do not advocate force iu this matter, but our law-makers should be com pelled to see that the treaty with China is so abrogated as to effectually stop this immigration to our shores. The Legislature of Maine will eject a United States Senator to succeed Hannibal Hamlin at its next session, as tliis gentleman, after a long and honorable service in that body, an nounces his intention to retire. Gen. Chamberlain is spoken of as the suc cessor of Mr. Hamlin, and he will doubtless fill the place ably and ac ceptably. The Democratic party goes back fifty years to days of Jackson to find something to boast of, and goes back eight years to find mud to fling at the Republican party; but when the Republicans parade the records of the Democratic party during the past four years, it moans and snivels, "Oh, don't rake up the past." Among the numerous bills offered in the Legislature, is one or more to reduce the fees of the County Clerks and Sheriffs. As both parties prom ised to effect such reduction in these offices, we suppose a law properly regulating the fees of each will pass the Legislature now in session unani mous! y. SENATE BILL NO. EIGHTY-TWO. We print below Senate Bill No. 82, introduced by Hon. Robt. Clow, joint Senator from Polk and Benton, providing for the interchange of traffic by common carriers through' out the State. This bill explains itself, and the publication in full is better than any comment from our pen. It is the first attempt to control by legislation, the carrying trade of the State, and if it becomes a law will make trouble for monopolies. It is directly in the interest of the producer as well as the shipper, and our readers will look to the action of their representatives in the Legisla ture on this important question : Section 1. Every common carrier in this State, whether a corporation, firm or person owning or operating any railroad located wholly or- in part within this State, or owning or operating any steam vessel or other water craft plying altogether or in part on the waters of this State shall receive without discrimination and so forward to their destination las laras the powers of snch corporation, firm or person extend), all freight and pas sengercars, whether loaded or empty, in the case of railroads where simi larity of guage exists, and all passen ffersaud freigh t passing or being for warded over and along stud by means of their railroads, steamships and other water craft, as the case may be, whether such cars are the property of, or under the control of, the cor poration, farm or person owning or operating any intersecting or con necting railroad, and, in the case of passengers and freight, whether then transit may have commenced on such railroad, steamships or other water craft owned or operated by any other corporation, firm or person whose 1 nes of communication intersect or conflict Avith those of the corporation, firm or person owning or operating the railroad, steamships or other water craft over which it is proposed to forward such passengers and freight. Sec. 2. In construing this Act, discrimination shall be taken to mean any distinction in time, rate or meth od of transit, and delivery of the cars, passengers or freight in ques tion. Sec. 3. Every violation of the provisions of this Act shall be pun ishable by a fine of not less than $100 nor more than $.,000, to be recov ered by the injured party in an ac tion at law in the Circuit Court of the pjace within this State where the head office or principal place of busi ness of the offender is situated, or of the place where the offence was com mitted ; at the option of the corpora tion, firm or person injurek. The Republican party stands for an honest government and an honest count. The Democratic party stands for dishonest government and a false count. Witness Maine, witness Ala bama, witness Arkansas, witness a solid repudiating Sonth. Where will the honest man cast his vote against his country's honor, or against the assailants of that honor ? It would seem, to read the Demo cratic press, that the result of the lo cal election in Maine was the count ing of the electoral vote in -favor of Hancock. Poor Democracy, defeated almost in every canvass for the last twenty years, it is but natural that you should dream a victory. Great disaffection exists in Indiana over the Democratic state nomina tions. Several prominent Democrats have come out iairly and squarely for Garfield and Arthur. We pray that the good work may still go on. CORRESPONDENCE. Eo. Gazettk : I had the pleasure of listening to a 6peech delivered at the Court House by Hon. J. H. Slater. The speech was very common indeed, and failed to awaken much enthusi asm among the faithful. During the rebellion the Senator was in full sym pathy and accord with the people of the south -in their efforts to overthrow the government. Had they succeed ed iu their insane scheme, to-day we would have no country no flag and in fact nothing for which an Ameri can should be proud. The Senator arraigned the Republican party for high crimes and misdemeanors, said it was a party ot broken promises and false pretenses. He forgot to mention the fact that the Republican party saved the Unibn, that it has restored our national credit, and lib crated from bondage millions of slaves, and has carried forward all the great enterprises that have made us the most powerful nation upon the face of the earth. A person to hear the Senatoi's speech now would think he was one of the greatest patriots of the age. When General Hancock was fighting for the preservation ot the Union our Senator was hollowing hurrah for the success of the Con federate army. Oh, consistency thou art a jewel ! He said Hayes was elected by fraud, which is not so. Everyone familiar with history knows that Florida and Louisiana have a constitutional provision that their State officials should constitute a re turning board and that these boards should have the right to count. Un votes, which was done and was de cided in favor of President Hayes. This was no fault of the Republican party but the legitimate result of the legally constituted authorities. Not satisfied with this the Democrats took the matter up to Congress, and there a commission was appointed to decide who was the legally elected President; this commission consist in of eight Democrats and seven Republicans, after giving the whole matter a thorough investigation, de cided that Rutherford B. Hayes was the legally elected President of thes. United States. So the most casual reader can see that there is no fault to be attached to anyone in this mat. ter whatever. The Senator dwelt at considerable length upon what is known as the Supervisor law to protect the polls. This law has been in force ever since the government was formed, and it has worked well, and no one has ever found fault with it until the Demo crats in the South, wishing to control the elections by force, sought to do away with this law because it pre vented them from bulldosing the people and compelling them to vote as they saw proper. Mr. Slater is of that class of Dem erits who wished to see the South establish her independence, and there is no use of trying to disguise the fact. His speech, therefore, can be taken with a great deal of allowance oven by Democrats who have faith in their government. At the conclu sion of the speech a few faint cheers were sent up by the unterrified por donting defeat in November. Way land. At the solicitation of the Republi can State central committee, ex-Attorney General Geo. H. Williams will make a general cauvass of this State. He will speak in Corvaliis October 5 th. The national Democratic platform of 1864 contained one. resolution to the effect that-"this war is a failure." Was Gen. Hancock inoluded? He will be placed on the list of failures next November. Gen. Hancock still occupies his mansion on Governor's Island. The people of the country would like to hear from him before November, but silence is golden in his case, and his party knows it. Hon. C. B. Watson, Republican candidate for presidential elector, has commenced a thorough canvass of the Southern portion of this State, coming as far North as Eugene City. The Democratic party in Congress increased the public expenditures $41,000,000 in five years, and boasts of its economy. That is one thing the country will vote to change. Virginia's Democracy is somewhat divided, and the Charleston News (Dem.), thinks that the mother of presidents is as likely to giver her 11 votes for Garfield as for Hancock. Wanted.

KINO, . Sheriff of Benton 0ouut3 Oregon. Dated this 29th dav of Aiurtwt. 1880. 17:36w5 NATIONAL REPUBLICAN PLATFORM. The following is the platform passed by the recent Republican convention held at Chicago : Republican rule has restored upon a solid basis pay Went in coin for all the national obligations, and has given us a currency absolutely good and Jeal and equai m every par ot our extent. eu country. It nas lifted the credit oi the nation from the point where 6 per cent, bonds sold at 80, to that where 4 per cent bonds are cagerlv sought il a premium. Under its administration, nilwa-ys have increased horn 51.000 miles in 1800, to more than S2,000 miles in 1S79. Our foreign trade has increased from $700,000,000 to 150,000,000 iu the same time, and our exports in 1800, were $264,000,000 more than oui imports in 1S79. Without resorting to loans, it has. since the war closed, defrayed the ordinal expenses of the govern ment, besides the accruing interest on the public debt and disbursed annually more than $50,000,000 foi sol diers' pensions. Ithaunaid iy-SisO, 000,000 of the pub lic debt, and by refunding the balance at lowei lutes, has reduced the annual interest chaige, fiom nearly $151,000,000 to less than $89,000,000. All the indus tries of the couutry have revived, Iaboi is in uenmnd, wages have increased and throughout ihe enliie coun try there is evidence of a coming prosperity greater than we ever enjoyd. Upon this recoic the Repub lican part-asks forthe continued confidence and sup port of the icople, and this convention submits to their approval the following statement of the princi ples and purpose which will continue to guide and in spire its efforts : First We aifirm that the work of the last 21 yearn has been sueh as to commend itself to the favor of the uation, and that the fruits of the costly victories which we have achieved through immense difficulties should be preserved; thai, the dissevered union now happily restored should be pei-peluated and that the liberties secured to this generation should he transmitted un diminished to future generations ; that the order es- ta basnet, ana the credit acouuea should never be im periled : tnattne pensions promised should be naid hum hh ueuc so mucn geunegfe snouiu oe extinguished by the payment o7 every dollar thereof: that the re viving industries should evei be promoted, and that the commence already. so great should be encovvaged. Second The con&vitution of the United States is the supreme taw. and not a mere contract of confeder ated states, it made a soveieijn nation. Some pow ersaredonied ,o the nation, while others aie retained by the states, but the boundai v between the powers, delegated and those reserved is to be determined by national and not by st?,te ti ibunals. Third Th work of popular education is one left to the care of the sevctaJ statea, but it is the duty of the national government to aid that work to the ex tent of lis constitutional ability. The intelligence of the nation is but the aggregate of the intelligence in the several state? anr- thedstinv of the nation mut-o be guided not by the genius of any one state, but bv the average genius of all. Fourth The constitution wisely forbids congies to make any law Kespcctmg an establishment of relig ion, hut it is idle to hope that the nation can be pio tccted agrinst the influence' of sectarianism while each state is exposed fco it pal fcieulf- domination. We therefore reeommend thoi the constitution be so amended as to (ay some (nolui.ition upon the legisla tion of each state and to forbu- the i'.ppropiation oi the public funds to i.he si-ooort of seetari;v.i schools. Fifth We rcafflj m the belief avowed in 1870 that the duties levied for the purpose of levenue should so discriminate as to ",ivor Amencan Iaboi ; that no fur ther grunt oF the prclicdom.yn shoufci be made to any railroad or other coi poration ; that slavery having perished in, the si.ues. lis twain barbarity, p-dygamy, must die in the fcniloii:s ; that everywhere the pro tection accorded io American birth must be secured to citizens by Amei i'-an adoption ; i.hat itis the duty of congress to develop and improve our water courses and harbors, hat wje insist that further ?nbidits to private per.-o;is or corjoialions must cea.-. : that the obligation.-, to men who p; eserved its integrity in the day of battle are lui.immiished by the lapse of 16 years since their filial victory : their perpetual honor is and .shall forever be thegveatful privilege and the sa cred duty of the American people. Sixth Since theauthority to regulate immigration and intercourse between the United States and foreign nations rests with the congress of the United States and its treatyjBrralring' powers, the Republican party, regarding the unrestricted i'umigration of Chinese a an evil of great magnitude, invokes the exercise oi that power to restrain and limit that immigration by the enaetmcnt of such just, humane and reasonable provi&ions as will produce that result. Seventh - That the purity and patriotism which characterized the earlier career of R. B. Hays In peace and war, and which guided the thought of his imme diate predecessor to him for a presidential candidate, have continued to inspire him in his career as chief executive, and that history will accord to his ad ministration the honors which are due to an efficient, jut and courageous fullflhnent of the public busi ness, and will honor his interposition between the people and proposed partisan laws. Eighth We cAarge upon the Democratic party the habitual sacriiices of patriotism and justice to a su preme and unsatiable lust for office and patronage ; that to obtain pbsession of the national and state gov ernments, ana or tnc control or place and position. they have obstructed all the efforts to preserve the purity and conserve the freedom of suffrage, have de vised fraudulent returns and certificates, hrve labored to unseat lawfully elected members of congress to se cure at all hazards the vote of the majority of the states in the houc of representatives, have endeavor ed to occupy by force and fraud places of trust given to others by the people of Maine, and rescued by the courage and action of Main's patriotic sons, have by methods vicious in principle and tyranical in practice attached partisan legislation to appropriation bills ; have crushed the rights of individuals and vindicated the principle and sought the favor of rebellion against the nation and have endeavored to obliterate the sa cred memories of the war to overcome iuestimable good results, freedom and individual equality. We affirm it to be the duty and purpose of the Re publican party to use all legitimate means of this un ion to secure the perfect barmony which maj' be prac ticable, and we submit to the practical sensible peo ple of the United States, to say whethe, it would not be dangerous to the best interests of our country at tms tune to surrender tne aumimstjation or tbe na tional government to a party which seeks to over terow the existing policy under which we are so pros perous, ana tnus nnng destruction aim ieoniusion where there is now order and confluence and hope SAVES VEGETABLE s FARMERS.
