J.vlCIAL PAPER FOR 3ENT0N COuNTY

BE UP AND AT WORK.
Surely if any note of warning were
needed to call on the dwellers in
Western Oregon and these Valley
oounlies in particular, to combine to
aisi in eviry possible way the com
pletion of the Oregon Pacific Rail
road, it would be found loud as a
trumpet call in the suggestions re
gnrding the relations of the Northern
Pacific and Oregon Kail way and
Navigation Companies,'' which Mr
Villaid had the almost inconceivabk'
audacity to require the Oregonian to
publish on the 2d of April, 1881.
It is a merciful provision of Provi
dence that the most dangerous ani
mals utter some sound, or create some
noiee before their deadly powers are
called into exercise.
Too often with men it is different,
and language seems to have been giv
en them, as Talleyrand said, to con-
eal their thoughts. But exci ptio lal
cases are found now and again, where
the inmost thoughts and intent ions
are paraded without a blush and in
seeming insensibility to the repulsion
and disgust they excite in decent
minded people.
This is not tho first time fhat the
blood and iron policy of control has
been flaunted in our faces. Hardly
had this Mr. Villard climbed into the
saddle than he set out to ride. Who
can ever forget his first circular with
I'm " exclusive control of the Colum
bia river, which isj.be backbone of
the enterprise," and its declaration of
intention to prevent opposing in
terests from establishing themselves
in " our own territory."
And now hear him. "The Oregon
Hail way and Navigation Company
.has practical control of all the trans
portation business of Western Ore
gon, of Eastern Oregon, and all that
part of Washington territory south
of the main branch of the Columbia,
known as the Snake River."
Has it indeed ? What has the
Scotch Company and Mr. iieid to say
to th s, so far as Western Oregon is
concerned ? How about the compet
itive system of narrow gauge railroad,
which so late as last August the
special committee of the O. 11. fc N.
Co. thought sufficiently important to
prevent then their recommending the
very purchase of the Valley stand
ard gauge railroads, Mr. Villard now
announces ?
Read the following sentences from
that same O. R. & N. committee's
report: " The steamship portion of
our traffic represents the bulk of the
-export and import trade of the whole
of Oregon aud the greater part of
Washington Territory, neitier of
which has any other means of com
itnication with the outside world."
It seems to us that when the rattles
play so loudly the man who takes no
notice deserves to be struck- aud will
get mighty little pity when the snake
has secured his victim for good and
all.
Surely there must be something in
the old wife's story of fascination; and
this great fertile, growing, country of
Western Oregon, with its seventy
five thousand of population, whose fu
ture, that of their sons and daughters
now is at stake on keeping the fatal
powers of this all swallowing raonop.
oly oft from their homes, is silent,
lell bound, calmly watching the ap
proach of their fate.
Were it not so the whole Valley
would be of the same mind as the
Linn count? Grange, whose Resolu
tions of Saturday last we print in an
other column. All these counties
would be up and doing. They would
invite the fullest emjuiiy, they would
seek the most ample information as
to the condition and prospects of the
Oregon Pacific railroad, but above
all, of the Yaqaina Bay improvement.
They would meet: they would organ
ize: they would not suffer one month
to pass until the succes of the harbor
works, so far as money and intclli
gence can insure success, was past al
doubt.
They would not call on this mm an
the other, and this corporation and th
Other to come & help them; but they
would help themselves.
How? do you say. Tim: The peo
pie would say, this railroad or the
other railroad may or-may not sue
ceed now this yean bat the harbor is
oiirs, our children's, and this shall be
set right, so that the grain ships tniy
cmie in. When the harbor is there the
railroad to it is as certain as sunrise.
B it then the people would go on to
say. This Oregon Pacific is clean
banded, so far as we are concerned'
fit business lttelV liftYfj Wof lietf in mrtli
ey, tinwe aind energy without stint to
bring about the completion of so
much of the road this very year as
will connect the Valley with the Bay.
The opposition they met is not 'honest
or legitimate and we, the people, here
by declare that cause our own, and
when and how we are shown the back
ing and support that road needs, then
aud there it shall have it.

at or, and struts the stage, with let il
be done and it is done, in every word
and atiitude; we, should recommend
to him the study, the careful study, of
the f ourth chapter of the book of the
Prophet Daniel for in it he will find
the most suggestive parallel we can
rempmber, for his tone and style, and
the record also of how Nebuchadnez"
zar found it answer.
ed oil' Saturday last, these were some
of the questions asked and answered.
We trust that Benton county will
not be backward in responding, and
that she will be represented at the Al
bany convention on the, 21st, by her
best and m st earnest sons.
THE NORTHERN PACIFIC RAILROAD,
THE LINN COUNTY GRANGE,
In these days, when corporations
and monopolies run riot, and when all
the ancient rights of farming popula"
lions are made playthings of, to amuse
and enliven the spare hours of the
Presidents, who are rushing into pritr
one after another, it is refreshing to
meet sixty or seventy representative
men and women, who know their pur
poses and aims, and mean to carry
them into execution.
There, in that council chamber
there was more common sense talked
on this transportation business.' than
would fill this papet. It would have
done some people good to see how
the completion of the Oregon Pacific
and the opening of Yaquiua Harbor
was absolutely proved to be as good
as ten cents a bushel profit to the Val
ley farmer. And that is practical ; i
it not ? When our people in Benton
county know it too. aud Marion, aud
Lane, a'nd Polk, aud Yamhill, ami
Washington, aye, and Douglas too,
then all that nonsense about the Ore
gon Pacific not being needed, and
about the people of Oregon being
well supplied with transportation, and
about retting the narrow gauge pco
pie to come in and lay their little
track down to the bay, will p iss into
the empty air it is. The people are
there, the country is there, the pro
ducts are there, the need of develop
ment is there, to ensure, absolutely en
sure, the immediate completion of the
Oregon Pacific.
Is it not not natural though to make
sure of the Harbor ? Is it not true
thatto complete these harbor improve
raents the engineer's estima'.e of cost
js about $340,000 ? Does not every
one know that this jetty or breakwa
ter is completed and the rocky points
and edges of the reefs blasted out,
there is every probability, short of cer
tainty, that the improvement is per
maneot and effectual? And is it not
equally familiar to all our minds that
then this harbor will be second to
none on this Pacific coast, between
San Fraucisco and the Straits of Fuca?
Is it not provable to every sea cap
tain, who sails to this North Pacific,
that he is less than half an hour's dis'
tance from deep blue water to his
wharf? Will not the whole maritime
world soon know that instead of being
mulcted and fined for pilotage and
towage until they are sick of paying,
that a few dollars paid to the harbor
tug will frank them from five fathoms
outside to alongside tho warehouse ?
Will not the chart then Bhow them
that the harbor once reached is safe
and land-locked, with good holding
ground for anchorage, and room to
swing in deep water right alongside
the landing stage ?
And is it to be supposed for a mo
ment that unscrupulous misrepresen"
tation can permanently obscure these
facts, and keep the investing public
from supporting an enternris. built
on solid advantages like these?
Is it not known to all who have
any confidential news from Washing
ton that the opposition to Yaquiua
was there at this last short session in
full force and pay ? And that thus
even the moderate demand of $25,
000, put forward by the U. S. Engi
neers, was cut down to $10,000 ?
Is it not true that to supply the
shortcomings of Congress and put the
Engineers in funds for the vigorous
prosecution of the works, would be
but a trifling effort for the farmers of
this valley? What would be easier
than for each man to contribute so
many bushels out of the coming crop,
and send them to the warehou se at
Albany, to be taken charge of and re
alized by the Council of the Grange
and the proceeds paid over as the
disbursements of the works require,
after the sums already appropriated
are spent ? And would not the val
ley population respond as one man to
an appeal so supported, and made to
them, not. by interested parties, but
by their own best representatives,
having no motive bat the common
good ? These were the topics disouss-
QARFIELD'S PLURALITY,
The New York Tim essays: We
announced several Weeks since that
nvmo to the unexpected discrepan
eies in the toolings of political alma-
nacs. we are nnauie, even ai ims laie
lav to decide whether Garfield or
Hancock had a plurality in the conn
try. Relying upon the first almanacs
received by us and we are obliged
to depend on these lext books for j.io
litical statistics we had decided a
few questions to the effect that Gar
field fiaif a small plurality ; dui a lew
days after the appearance of that is
sue, we were staggered by a table
from the Cincinnati fanquirer, show
ing that a plurality for Hancock ot
8,100, and further donot was cast u
on our first authorities by the appear
ance of later almanacs giving the
democratic candidateasmall plurality.
In the meantime we were flooded
with questions on the point No two
compilations of the vole could be
found to agree, and hence we deter
mined to address the several oecrela
rius of State ourselves aud publish a
correct table when the full returns
were received. These we now have.
As the onlv just method of ascertain
ing the vote or plurality in a State in
the presidential election, we have in
all cases used the highest vote cast in
lhat State for either a republican or
democratic elector. In Virginia the
funiler and readjuster vote is added
together, and in Maine the fusion
vote is crediteil to Hancock. The
complete table gives Garfield 3,522
plurality.
We have in our possession state
ments from Secretaries of States.
These have leen carefully checked
with the totals. The footings are
accurate, and il may now be consid
ered established for the first time
that the actual plurality of Garfield
over Hancock, based upon a compari
son of the honest vote for the elec
tors of each party in each Slate is
3, 522 neither more nor less. This
may be accepted as the answer to
the very numerous questions we have
received on this subject, as il will be
accepted by the country generally as
finally settling this much vexed question.
A screw loose already ? Why Mr.
Vdfard's Presidential message in hut
Saturday's Oregonian told the world
that the O. R. fc N. " will control by
virtue of arrangements now maturing
in Europe, the 312 miles of stuidard
gauge road now owned aud operated
by the Oregon and California Kail-
road in Western Orsgon. It will fur
ther control," he went on, " 150 miles
additional." And now the Oregon
ian ot Tuesday says that the formali
ties required for completing the
scheme for absorbing, or swallowing,
or "controlling the poor valley roads,
may ''render the expected re organ i
nation difficult, or at least may defer
it fo ra time." So soon ? Is there
another Mr. Billings objecting to be
swallowed ? Or have some ot these
foreigners awoke to the situation ?
Really this Oregon Jupiter must take
care; if any more of his thunderbolts
miss fire, people will begin to think
there is no real thunder alter all. A
few mure fizzes and sputters and the
charm will bursf
Do you remember the fable of the
donkey, who imitated th spaniel and
tried to jump up aud sit on hi mas
eer's knee ? There was a picture of
it in theold book of jssop's tables that
we were raised on, that occurs natur
ally to the mind when a ponderous
and unwieldy creaturetries to be joc
ular and frisky. The Oregonian puts
in a paragraph of this order now and
then. On Tuesday last it was face
tious over the St. Helen's paper pre
dicting the rise of St. Helens. "When
the cormorant and the bittern shall
possess Portland, and when the owl
also and the raven shall dwell in it ;"
and points its joke by alleging that
St. Helens, Yaquiua Bay, and Puget
Sound agree that the City of Poi tiand
has no future. Is not that wiity and
in good taste ?
We print in another column a fi
nancial article from the New York
Sun, of March 21st. It confirms the
Opinion we hold strongly, that those

who have been bold enough to re
fuse to sell their wheat at condemna
tion prices will profit by their courage.

A few days ago the "Oregonian"
published what professed to be a tele
graphic report of the item given be
low. We now give it in full that bnr
readers may see the view taken in New
York of the attempt made by Mr.
Villard and his folio wurr, to obtain
"control" the- Northern Pacific :
The announcement that the Execu
tive Committee of the Northern Paci
fic Railroad had decided to distribute
nearly $18,000,000 of the common
stock of the company, its briefly report
ed in another column, created much
surprise in Wall street to-day. It is
said that some of the directors of the
road were not aware of the act until it
became generally public. On the reor
ganization of the road in 1 873 its capi
tal was fixed at $1UU,UUU,UUU, ot wnieo
$51,000,000 were in preferred stock,
issued in place of the old seven-thirty
bonds of the Jay Cooke management.
This preferred stock, being; receivabh
for the company s lands at par, has now j
been reduced to about $42,000,000.1
Of the $49,000,000 of common stock, j
$18,000,000 were held m turret by the
company to: ;eiivery to tne- owners or
the stock before the reorganization.
Although only $31, 000,00ft of this
common stock had "one ofc f the
company's control, the entire- 19,000,
000 were listed at the Stock Exchange.
In explanation of the recast act of the
executive committee, It is saiit that the
proprietors of the, stock held in trust
have been urgently demanding full
possession of their property,, as their
proprietary rights could noi ht dispos
ed of for more than 20 or 25 while
the price of the issued stock lias lately
been about 50.
The advance of more tbans twenty
points in Northern Pacific stock dur
ing the last three months is exphuued
by the efforts of the pool formed by
Mr. Villard, with other friends of the
Oregon Railway and Navigation. Com
pany, to get control of the Northern
Pacific road. How this new distribu
tion of stock will affect these attempts
is a question much" discussed in Wall
street, but in regard to which there is
a lack of definite information.
The present directors of the North
ern Pacific Railroad are Fredeuiek
Billings, of Vermont; Chas. B. Wright,
of Philadelphia; Benjamin P. Cheney,
of Boston: Johuston Livingston, of
this city; Joseph Dilworth, of Pitts
burg; Joseph D. Potts, of Philadelphia;
Hugh McCulloch, of Washington; A
H. Barnev, of this city; William R.
Garrison, of this city; Henry E. Johnr-
ston, of Baltimore; Robert Harris, of
this city; John W. Ellis, of this city..
and John E. Bullitt, of Philadelphia..
The members of the Executive Corar
raittce are Robert Harris, Benjamin P.
Cheney, Joseph D. Potts, Johnston
Livingston and William R. Garrison.
On inquiry to-day at the offices of.
the company, No. 2J fcifth A-venue, it
was learned that the persons entitled
to receive the newly-issued stock num
bered from three hundred to five hun
dred, and that the stock was pretty
well divided among them. It was
also said that nothing was known by
the management of the company as to
the amount of stock which had been
secured by the Villard pool.
A gentleman connected with the
company said that the proposition to
distribute the residue of the common
stock had repeatedly been discussed in
the Board of Directors, and that the
matter was finally left 'unfinished in
the hands of the executive committee.
The latter body, under the by-laws,
had all the powei-s of the directory,
which would promptly ratify the act
of the committee at the next meeting.
The only reason for the distribution of
stock was tht clamor raised by the
owners, who could not in justice be
kept out of its possession in the pres
ent state of the stock market. He
could not tell how the measure would
affect the schemes of the Villard pool.
The motive for the formation of that
organization was obvious to any one
who knew the character of the routes
of the Northern Pacific Railroad and
the Oregon Railway and Navigation
Company. The seaport of the latter
comp.iny was Portland, Oregon, situa
ted on the Willamette River, a tribu
tary of the Columbia, The bar at the
mouth of the Columbia River was very
difhs ilt of passage by vessels going in
either direction, and severe storms
were very frequent off the coast there,
so that it was not uncommon for ves
sels to be weatherbound near that
point for two weeks at a time. Then,
there were many bars, shoals, etc, be
tween the mouth of the river and Port-
and, rendering navigation extremely
difficult. On the other hand, there
was perfectly plain sailing, with a
deep channel, to Tacoma, the seaport
and western terminus of the North
ern Pacific road, on Commencement
Bay, Puget Sound. There were twenty-five
feet of water at low tide oft' the
company's docks at that place, and
from there to the ocean there was not
a reef or shoal. In consequence of the
differences noted, the cost of chartering
a first-class vessel to go from this city
to Portland was $6,000 more than to
go from this city to Tacoma. Then,
the line of the Northern Pacific road
from Ainsworth, at the mouth of the
Snake River, to Tacoma, would be
135 miles shorter than the route
around through Portland. It follow
ed from these facts that the railroads
and steamboat fine of the Oregon
Raiway and Navigation Company
would be greatly injured by the com
pletion of the Northern Pacific to Ta
coma, and it was to prevent this com
pletion that the Villard pool was form
ed. Before tbat.lMr. Villard had tried
unsuccessfully to induce the Northern
Pacific Company to enter into some
plan of consolidation, or to delay work
on the road beyond Ainsworth.
The same gentleman remarked that
if the Villard party had not secured
conteo? of the NcrM.om Pacific before
the new distribution of stoc'r, the in
crease ,,i niuketa'Je shares would be
like' , to rid theui in t.ttitig their ol -jec.
I'', however, they had practically
sec red a controlling interest, tl e new
issu mjghi ten 1 to lessen their hold.
