One of tb best and most useful ini
provemeuts that could be made lor
Benton couutv is a draw bridge across
the Willamette river at Oorvallis, so
that teams, horsemen, footmen and all
other class of pedestrians can pass over
the river at pleasure. This improve
ment would unite the business inter
ests of a large portion of Linn Comity
with Benton county. Benton counts
is new out of debt and got money on
hand, would it not be a favorable time
for our county court to take into con
sideration the question of building a
bridge as indicated.
The larger element in the demo
cratic party,including those who have
been considered the tried and faihtful of
the n li tv.lor time imemorialare becom
ing highly disgusted because President
Cleveland ignores their claims, to the
effect that democrats should be ap
pointed to the places occupied by Re
publicans. They claim that the elec
tion of Clevelatl 1 meant, that there I
should be a change in the officials of
the government clear down the line,
which is very consistent from a demo
cratic stand point besides d tiring the cam
paign Cleveland made so many profess
ions, order to catch on to the popu
lar favor.that he almost professed so
much, that it took him clear out of the
bounds of the democratic party.

Although there has been thousands of
appointments made under these cir
cumstances, yet the most notable per
haps, and about which there can be no
doubt of the motives which led to the
appointment is the re-appointment of
postmaster Pierson ef New York city,
a Republican, who in order to favor
Cleveland on the day of election kept
the post office open and all the em
ployees running on full time the
whole day, which prevented several
thousand votes being cast for Blaine.
After Mr. Cleveland was inaugurated
he very promptly re-appointed Pearson
to the position which the latter held
when he proved traitor to his party
and the principles which he had al
ways represented. Anothercase about
which the doubt is wmeved is in the
case of the intimacy between Henry
Ward Beecher and Cleveland which
grew up on account of the fellow feel
ing which existed between the two
because of their similarity of experi
ence, one with Mrs. Tilton and the
other with Maria Halpin, so warmly
attached were they under the circum
stances that Beecher a pretended Re
publican did all in his power for the
ejection of Clevelaud, and- soon after
the latter had taken his seat be appoin
ted the son of Beecher as collestor of
customs on the Sound in Washington
Territory. Is there any doubt that
these appointments were made through
political favoritism and f r the valua
ble services rendered to the election of
Cleveland? While Republicans do not
question the rightful privilege of the
president appointing whomever he
pleases to fill the various positions in
this mournful event were to be accep
ted as evidence of patriotic feeling, the
south might be regarded as the most
loyal section of the country. Some
outspoken ex-rebels, especially one who
is a member of the Georgia legislature
have not attempted to assume the role
of sorrow which they do net feel. But
as a rule the outward show of mourn
ing is a little more ostentatious as to
the south than at the north.
It will be recollected that the most
eloquent and touching funeral oration
in congress, on the occasion of the
death of Charles Sumner, was delivered
by Senator Lamar, of Mississippi, now
secretary of the interior in President
Cleveland's cabinet. But thee was
not enough patriotism and loyalty in
his eloquence to educate the people of
Mississippi, and the politic 1 1 massacre

A Nice Line of
The route for a water ditch, which if
completed would brin-; an abundance
of water from the Vs'illamette river,
several miles adovv to C rvallis tt run
any amount of machinery has been sur
veyed by two different engineers, and
the cost of the itnproveni.nt carefully
counted and found that it will not cost
over about twenty-five or thirty the u-
sand dollars. For this small sum of
money, this town and eounty can n6t
afford to do without such a valuable
improvement. It would prove a bene
fit to every citizen of this county,
because it vould encourage manufac
turies to come and start business in our
midst which would afford opportuni
ties for people to get work, and at
tract people here, and in time the pro
ducers would thus get an opportuity
to sell their produce to them.
The present administration was put
into power by several elements, all
working to affect the election of Cleve
land. English money was lavishly
spent to elect him, with the expec
tation that when elected he would do
all in h is power, ,t8 bring about as near
as he could.free trade between England
and this country, and do all he could
to favor the carriage of American pro
ducts in English bottoms. John
Roach a strong protective tariff man,
one who was carrying on the only suc
cessful ship yard in the United States
which was likely to prove to be any
thing like an opposition to English
shipbuilding, had been conducting a
large and successful business for many
years. He had advocated for years
that by proper action on the part of
this government, ship building in the
United States could be carried on so
successfully as to be able to carry the
foreign shipping of. the United States
in her own home-made ships, which is a
proposition that England on no account
if possible to prevent it, would permit
being carried out. Mr. Roach and
his American ideas had to be disposed
of and buried as far out of sight as
possible. In order to dispose of them
the contracts which Mr. Roach had
with the government were repudiated
by Attorney-General Garland, Mr.
Cleveland's legal adviser. This so
frustrated Mr. Roache's business cal
culations that he was unable to meet
his obligations, because Mr. Garland's
decision in the matter led the govern
ment to refuse to pay the money toMr.
Roach on the contracts forlaborwhich
the latter had already jierformed. Thus
Mr. Roache s ship yard is closed up,
in the government service, yet they do ; 0f the great soldier hive borne fruit j
question the right of any man to pre-1 among them, and that their express-
tend to do one thing, while at the same j i(ns Qf sorrow at his death are some-1
time he does the opposite of what he j thing besides surface grief, and tb j
pretends, and thus plays the part of a I hyp 'critical semblance of mourning.;
contemptible hypocrite.
A Few
DAMNABLE 'HE
Facts
for fa rents ta Keaa and
Fonder Over.
You say you have a fortune to leave
them. O man and woman, have vou
not learned that like vultures, like
hawks,like eagles, riches have wings
and will fly away. Though you should
be successful in leaving a competency
behind you, the trickery of executors
may swamp it in a night; or some
officials in our churches may get up a
mining company and induce your or
phans to put their money into a hole iri
Colorado; and if, by the most skillful
machinery the sunken money cannot
be brought up again, prove to them
that it was eternally decreed that that
was the way they were to lose it, and
that it went in the most orthodox and
heavenly style. Oh, the damnable
schemes that professed Christians will
engage in until God puts his finger into
the collar of the hypocrite's robe and
rips it clear down to the bottom! You
have no right because you are well off
to conclude that your children are go
ing to be as well off. Have you noth
ing better than money to give your
children? If you have not, and send
your daughters into the world with
empty brain and unskilled hand, you
are guilty of assassination, homicide,
regicide, infanticide. There are women
toiling in our cities for two or three
dollars per week who were the daugh
ters of merchant princes. These suf
fering ones now would be glad to have
the crumbs that once fell from her
fathers table. That worn-out, broken
shoe that she wears is the lineal de
scendent of the $12 gaiters in which
her mother walked; and that torn and
faded calico had ancestry of magnifi
cant brocade that swept Broadway
clean without any expense to the street
commissioner. Though you live in an
elegant residence and fare sumptously
every day, let your daughters feel it is
a disgrace to ihem not to know how
to work. I denounce the idea prev
alent in society that though our young
wmen may embroider slippers and
crochet and make mats for lamps
to stand on, without disgrace, the idea
of doing anything for a livlihood is dis
honorable. It is a shame for a young
woman belonging to a large family to
be inefficient when the father toils for
her support. It is a shame lor the
daughter to be idle while her mother
toils at the wash-tub. It is as honor-
and a formidable rival to English ship able to sweep house, make beds or

Roach's Contracts.
We have taken pains to ascertain the
about John Roach's dealings
v.-ith the government. From 1S65 to
1S85, exclusive of the cruisers still un
finished, he received less than $3,000,-1
000 from the government. During 1
the same period the entire amount of j
work done by him on contracts was I
$6,000,000. His government contracts j
formed not more than 5 per cent, of i
the whole volume of his business as a j
shipbuilder. We have not estimated j
his work for th; g.ivenvnm' daring !
the war period, as that was an extraor
dinary period when all shipbuilders j
were impressed in:o the service. New:

Erin's love tor America.
The name American is passport to
any Irish heart. They call America
their second home and their eyes are
over bent a cross the sea. "From north
to south, from east to west," remarked
a Belfast lawyer, "in all the expanse
of this isle and in every home, when
you touch America, you touch an Irish
heart." It is astonishing to note the
enormous number of old people and
children, as compared with the j-oung
men and won:en, who give to n nation
its life. The latter study the details
of eniigrati on for the past two-score
years. Every train bound for ports of
embarkation is alive with those who are
seeking in a new world the home and
fortune that ought to be possible to
them here. Many a gmy-baired old
man and woman told me with pride of
a son or a daughter "doing well"
abroad in Michigan or Idaho, for ex
ample -and wondered mightily that I
never had heard of them for they
have the vaguest ideas f the distances
in the United States. Old men who
go about with sticks and aged crones
long since past active service assured
.lie with the utmost solemnity that an
other year at the farthest would see
them in "Ameriky" soon as ever
John or Norah sends them money
enough for an ocaan ticket. Poor souls,
it's a happier place than "Ameriky''
I'm hoping they will see. It would
make you smile to hear the earnestness
