rETE COUNTY MAKING NMSAXCK
California it seems has beefi af
flicted with the county carving
craze this winter, about as badly as
Oregon. An extract from the Los
Angeles Herald on the subject in
dicates to what extent the vexa
liou has been carried there. Its
Suggestions are alao very appli
cable; tho rebuke it carries justly
pointed. It reads :
It ia to be hoped that the lejjisUture wiH
submit ait amendment to the constitution
providing for a uuiform. Jaw to create new
couuties. The great number of bills now
before the legislature for carving mp the
territory of old counties into a multiplicity
of new oues has become a nuisance a
growing evil --hich can be suppressed by
a sensible general law authorizing new
counties to be formed nnder cortain pre
scribed conditions.
A more pungent and expressive
paragraph couldn't have been writ;
ten bearing upon the Oregon sys
tem. The whole business reeds
tearing down and rebuilding on a
modern plan. There should be a
general law providing a foundation
upon which counties should be
formed and readjusted, delegating
the force and authority of all
changes to the voice of the people
involved. Let those interested
settle their own affairs by their
vote. Then the time necessarily
wasted in such squabbles would be
their own loss and the bickerings
and ill-will they engender
would rest squarely upon their
own shoulders.
The county division schemes
have become prolific of corrup
tion and scandal. They waste the
time of the legislature, at best.
They tend to put corrupt measures
through the houses, for the mem
bers who are interested in divid
ing a county vote for thieving bills
to get the support of the members
who profit by them. And often
there is direct payment of money
to legislatois.
So far as the late contest
this section was concerned
charge of fund corruption
crookedness is even hinted
On the contrary the opinion
in
no
or
at.
is
generally expressed that it
was
conducted innocently of the pallu
tion of moneyed barter. The
Blaine county scheme does
not bear an entirely spotless' rep
utation. But be that as it may, in ei
ther case the instrument was handy,
the opportunity was operative and
all the essential elements alive and
working that in many cases have
eonspired to produce the most un
savory records.
The formation of a new county
means an average annual expense
to the tax payers of $10,000 to
$50,000 more than they are now
paying, and about the same
amount in a lump sum for county
buildings. Oregon deals pretty
liberally with taxeaters now.
What she needs is not more of
ficials, but more men who will go
to work with their hands aud pro
duce something.
Tohx B. Eddy,, late reading
clerk of the senate, has bean
elevated to the position of rail
road commissioner. The selection
. is emmineutly correct. Especial
ly will it he received with gratifi
cation by the newspaper fraternity
in whose ranks Mr. Eddy has long
been an able and effective laborer.

THE END.
The 17th biennial session of the
Oregon legislative assembly ad
journed last Saturday morning at
10 o'clock. It left 30 senate bills
and 60 house bills to pass into the
hands of the governor. This
means, in all probability, that
many of the large list will never
become laws.
The general appropriation bill
was signed by tho governor Satur
day. It foots up, as we glean
trom the Statesman, about $2,000,
000. The general appropriations
for all purposes two years ago
were $1,200,000, from which it
will be seen the increase this ses
sion is about $800,000. Of this
sum $600,000 is appropriated for
the purchase oi lands for the use
of tke slate, for public buildings,
improvements, etc., showing that
the increase is not due to extrava
gance. Two years ago the gener
al appropriation bill appropriated
only $200,000 for buildings. Of
the increase this session $600,000
is for public works and $200,000
on the general expense of the state,
which sum is justified by the
: growth of the state and the in-
crease in the number of inmates
in the. institutions.
A bill was passed which ap
propriates $25,000 for the effi
ciency of the state deaf mute
school. Tha measure places this
institution directly under the con
trol of the governor, secretary,
and the school superintendent.
Land is to be purchased and new
buildings to be erected, the object
being to make the institution as
nearly self-supporting as possible.
The general appropriation bill
provides for the blind school. It
gives thorn $12,000 for the pur
cha3o of new lands, buildings, etc.,
and empowers the board of trust
ees to sell the present property of
this institution aud devote the
proceeds of the sale to the school.
It is provided, however, that
should the present deaf mute
school property be transferred to
and for the use of the blind insti
tule then the proceeds of the sale
of the blind school property go to
the deaf-mute school, to b3 used
in the erection of new buildii
At the close of the session the
house paid a handsome compli
ment to its late speaker, Hon. W,
P. Keady, by adopting an expres
sive resolution by a rising vote,
The senate, it seems, had nothin
to thank their presiding officer for,
ALL REPUBLICAN ANYWAY.
The first place in President
Cleveland's cabinet will be given
to Judge Gresham, and it is very
probable that he will accept the
position. Principles constitute the
fabric of the republican organiza
tion, and not men. -The defeat of
Mr. Harrison last November was
not the defeat of the doctrines that
constitute the political party,
These will live on and on forever,
and whoever occupies jthe execu
uve cnair win ioilow trie prece
dents laid down by the republican
administration. Mr. Gresham is a
republican, and will so continue,
notwithstanding that he will be
the chief ..advisor of a democratic
president. It may appear to some
that his appointment is' a reward
of party treachery; but Mr. Cleve
land, measured bv the rules laid
down by democratic leaders, is
very little m sympathy with the
foundation principles of his party,
and undoubtedly he can act in
narmony with his secretary of
state, even if he is opposed to the
Chicago platform. The enuuci-
auons in uiai document were in
tended simply to attract votes,
and not as rules of administrative
policy. Even the letter of accept
ance of Mr. Cleveland was opposed
to the principles laid down by the
national convention, and he will
violate no trust if he follows his
own ideas and the tariff as contra
distinguished from those of Mr.
Wattersonand Mr. Hill. Demo
cracy means nothing to 4 those ac
quainted with American politics,
except the most available means
of securing success at the. polls.
It has never placed itself on record
in a single national measure, ex
cept in "equitable adjustment" of
the public debt and "horizontal
reduction" on the tariff. The re
publican party has made the his
tory of the country for. the past
tliirty years, and will continue to
do so for as many more. In" the
hands of Mr. Gresham the state de
partment is safe, and no innova
tion upon former policies may be
expected. Tiaies-Pdountaineeiv

Portland's bank clearings have
picked up again. Last week they
showed a gain of 17.5 per cent.
As other Pacific coast cities also
showed good gains, it is evidence
that times are improving in this
country.
A gentleman who knows states
that there are about fifty clerks
at Salem who have hardly made a
stroke with a pen since the session
of the legislature opened, but they
are paid good salaries right along.
Some have done nothing, others
have done a little work occasion
ally. i rank Leslie's illustrated paper
offered $200 to tho subscriber who
would give the closest guess on
election results. Mr. Blair For
ward, of Willard, ex-sheriff of
Marion county, guessed that Cleve
land would get a plurality of 375-
000. He came within 5000 and
received the money. Mr. For
ward had 52,453 competitors.

It seems that there were two ap
proprialions for the Oregon nation
al guard at the hands ol this legis
lature. lne Gullixson bill giving
them $40,000 has passed both
houses over the governor's veto.
The Ford bill to give the national
Guard $60,000 in lien of the mill
tax also passed both houses.
That: gives the slate militia a cool
hundred thousand to operate with
the coming two years.
An effort was made to organize
a farmer's alliance lodge in Ash
land, but it was discovered that it
was against the rules of the order
to establish an alliance in an in

is the most prosperous, active and
wide-awake alliance in southern
Oregon, and probably m the state,
will hold two of its four monthly

A terrible sccident occured on

and going down a sharp grade got
out of control and until it brought

Latb German papers received
in Corvallis, express the deepest
anxiety with regard to the pros
pects of a cholera outbreak iu that
country again m tne spring.
Frost does not kill the germs of
cholera, though it lessens their ac
tivity and is unfavorable to their
development. They may live
through wintry weather in contam
inated water, in garbage or in oth
er kinds of infected material.
The Asiatic cholera has frequently.
been epidemic in times of severe
cold. There is nearly as much
danger of its being brought here
from abroad at this season of the
year, when the spirilla are com
paratively .impassive, as in the
spring and summer seasons, when
they are quickened by. the heat;
but there is ho doubt that it 1nay
be brought here in periods of low
temperature just the same.
Tins Portland Welcome looks at
it this . way: "The repeal ,of the
indebtedness clause subjects to
assessment nearly $17,000,000
worth of property owned by mil-
lionairs and heretofore non-assessable.
This enormous sum, even
at 2 per cent, will furnish $340,-
000 "annually.1 In the past people
ot Multnomah county have been
robbed of this amount, now the
capitalists will have to pay for
protection like common people."
And what is true of Multnomah
is true, porfionately, in every1

WASHINGTON LETTER.
Washington, Feb'ry 13, 1893.
Is the victorious democratic par
ty on the eve of disruption? Demo
crats of national promineuce in
congress privately express the be
lief that itis, aud predict that long
before the end of the administra
tion to begin next montu the sep
aration between the wings will be
open and nnni. lne principal
cause of this belief is the wide gulf
that exists "between Mr. Cleveland
and the southern and western
democrats on the silver-' question:
a bulf which the failure of Mr. O.
to force the repeal by congress of
the present siiver law has widened
and made apparently impassable.
Notice has been publicly served
on Mr. Cleveland by Representa
tive Bland, the leader of the sil
vor democrats in the house, that
further attempts along this line
would bring about a withdrawal of
the silver men from the party.
Tho forcefulness of Mr. Cleve
land's character is so well known
here, that the general c pinion is
that he will continue his light
against silver, by calling an early
extra session of the fifty-third con
gress, unless convinced that a bill
tor the repeal ot the silver Jaw
would be voted down in either the
house or senate. In that case he
would postpone calling an extra
session until he had "coverted" a
sufficient number to carry his
point.
The selection of Judge Walter
Q. Gresham, as the head of the
cabinet, which is accepted here as
an accomplished fact, will also be
a factor in bringing about a split
in the democratic party. As
rule the democrats in congress de
cline to publicly discuss this selec
tion,but privately they are showing
their anger and disappointment
The feeling among them may be
judged by the fact that Senator
Gorman, who is ordinarily the
most indifferent of men to news
paper stories printed of him, took
spceial pains to go around among
the Washington correspondents
and contradict the published ru
ruor that Gresham had been se
lected on his advice. With the
natural shrewdness of the tactful
political wire puller Gorman lost
no time in disavowing his respon

Senator Hill has been quietly
sounding the democratic senators
to asceraiu how many are willing
to carry their opposition to Gres
ham to the extent of voting
against his confirmation as a mem
bar of the cabkiet. If he can se
cure the pledges of a sufficient
number of senators to defeat the
conlirmation he proposes to do it

of old soldiers, heretofore republi

that the financial situation will be
such during -this administration
as to cause him to even take such
a step into serious consideration.
Besides, it is well known to those
who enjoy the President's confi
dence that he would, not permit
an issue of bonds.
The democrats in the house at

radical change in the pension laws

they would filibuster . until the

attempt to do so.

SEEDS,
It is really amusing to hear the
democrats with their big majority
in the house plead the baby act
and try to charge the republicans
with the responsibility for defeat
ing Mr. Cleveland's wishes.
President of the senate Fulton
is a stalwart. tie out-voted
twelve democrats kerslap, the
other day. That is, his fuling
made them vote "no" when they
did not vote at all. Mr. Fulton,
by the way, is an Astoria diplo
