AN IB TEAHSTKlt'8 TREASURE. Robert Chestnut, an old wagon muter on the Plains, who came to Cofftjville about eight years ago with onsiderable money, and who, as every one supposed, had gone through with it all, surprised, the natives last Satur day night digging up $5,000 in cash that he had buried when he came here fan Mr. Crittenden's lots, next block north of the Eldridge House. When Bob came to Coffeyville he deposited a considerable sum of money in the bank, and drew from it as often and as much aa was necessary to meet his expenses. Ha was addicted to strong drink, as almost every man of his class is, and went through with quite a sum in sev eral year. During the last year he has made several attempts to reform in the matter of drinking, but whisky had such a strong hold upon him that as long as the stuff was to be had he couldn't keep away from it. Since the new law went into effect Bob has ap peared different his carriage is more erect and a new and brighter gleam is in his eyes. During the last year he was strapped most of the time. Last Saturday night, in company with one of his friends, Bob went to the house (where he once lived) mentioned above, with a spade, and gained permission to do some digging in the garden. He measured the distance from the fence to the place where he had buried the money and dug a hole a number of inches deep, reached his hand down and pulled a large roll of something, which, after taking off the wrappings of oil-cloth, was found to be a fruit jar. Opening the jar, Bob took from it a couple of wallets, which were filled with greenbacks. The money was counted by one of our business men, and there wai exactly 5,000, mostly im 100 bills. It is said that when J&b-bai3sdJ&& money ie resolved that he would beg for a living before he would touch it so long as he was drink ing whisky, and he faithfully kept his resolve. On last Tuesday morning Bob started for the Territory to pur chase cattle for shipment Coffeyville (Kan.) Journal. Railroad Matters. The latest concerning th railroad from the North, seems to favor a route from the Ore gon line down through Del Norte, Humboldt, Mendocino and Marin counties to the Bay of San Francisco, which may spoil our prospects of a road through Siskiyou. Villard is de termined to build a line to San Fran circo, making' connection with tho Northern Pacific, but it is uncertain yet, as to the route. Surveyors at work on the Siskiyou evidently means a desire to find out the cheapest, short- est and most practical way for a road. Reports say Villard tried to secure the Donohue railroad across the Bay at San Francisco, running northward, but failing, intends building another line, which building will depend upon the surveys now being made. Yillard cares nothing much about the way trade, his main purpose being to secure an easy and cheap road to San Fran cisco for competition with the O. P. R, R- Co.'s central road and their south ern road. All the preparations in Southern Oregon are indicative of an extension down to Rogue river valley, but whether it will be extended down through Siskiyou to Redding, or through Humboldt county to the Bay remains uncertain. Should it be built to Rogue river valley and then diverge to the coast, we would still be able to save at least 40 or 50 miles in teaming to railroad, in place of about 115 or more, as afprebent. Yreka Journal. The steamer Idaho which has been in active service-on the upper Colum bia for fifteen years was brought down over the rapids at the Cascades the other day by Capt James W. Troupe. This exciting and dangerous trip was made in the brief space of a quarter of an hour. The passage of this rapid is a 'feat not often attempted, and must be a severe trial to the nerves of those en gaged. Standard. It appears the delinquents are not all oa the Pacific coast An eastern paper gets off the following wicked one: "Our opinion has been asked as to which Te preferred, the old or the new revised edition of the Bible. .'We 'unhesitatingly gave our adhesion to 'the old edition. For the benefit of our .delinquent subscribers we want the (Wition with "hell" in it and plenty of it." .THE RAILROADS ASD THE PEOPLE. There is abundant evidence that the time is close at hand when an over whelming popular opinion will render it necessary that the just relations of railroads to the public shall be accur ately defined by appropriate legisla tion. Some of the chief points of dif ference between the people and the railroad managers are the following: First Tlie people hold that the charges for transportation shall be "reasonable," and based mainly upon the cost of service; while the railway managers insist upon acting on the principle of charging "all the traffic will bear." Second The railway manaters justify the practice of charging dis criminating rates in furtherance of their interests, that is of charging low rates to some shippers and of exacting high rates from others, where the cost of the service is the same in both cases, in order to develop business in certain favored locatities; whereas the people claim that it is dangerous to the rights of citizens to permit the railroad man agers to discriminate at their pleasure in favor of certain localities and against others. Third The railroad managers justi fy the practice of contributing money as campaign funds, and otherwise to obtain political influence by which they may control elections and obtain in fluence with legislative bodies; while the people regard this as a pernicious and demoralizing practice, leading to venality and corruption in office. Fourth The railroad managers claim that their business is one so pe culiar, so complex, and differing so essentially from every other kind of business, that outsiders cannot under stand it, that legislators cannot deal with it fairly and wisely, and that none but railroad officials are compe tent to determine the justice of charges for transportation, or the necessity for discrimination in such charges; while the people insist that railroad com panies, being common carriers and ex ercising a public function, ought to be supervised and regulated in the inter est of the public, just as banks and in surance companies are supervised and regulated. For several years these questions have been extensively discussed, both in England and the United States. In England a system of Regulation by railroad commissioners has been adopt ed, somewhat similar to that provided in our Constitution, and it is said to work satisfactorily. In several of the States of the Union there has been a good deal of legislation on this sub ject, mostly of a tentative character. In Massachusetts and-Illinois-railroad. commissions have been created, with good results. In New York and sev eral other States attempts are now be ing made in the same direction. When called upon to givo their views before Legislative committees, the rep resentatives of the railroads "have not, except in rare instances, undertaken to deny that discriminations are made. On the contrary, they admit that they are made upon system and as a busi ness necessity, ofieripg various more or less plausible explanations of such al leged necessity. Only a short time since the public was amazed by an equally frank avowal made by a great California railroad magnate, to the effect that the railway power had been forced to go into politics, and to at tempt to influence Legislatures as the only means of protecting itself against dangerous aggressions. Nothing was wanting to complete the honesty and truthfulness of this admission, except to include the courts of justice among the bodies that the railroads had been compelled by the law of self-protection to attempt to influence. So far as California is concerned we already have all that need be asked for in the way of constitutional provisions and legislative enactments. Article XII of our Constitution covers the whole ground. Section 17 declares all railroad and transportation companies to be common carriers and subject to legislative control. Section 20 pro hibits pooling combinations. Section 21 declares: "No discrimination in charges or facilities for transportation shall be made by any railroad or other transportation company between places or persons," etc. Section 22 prorideR for a Board of Railroad Commissioners with ample powers for correcting every abuse or injustice in railroad manage ment that has been or may be com plained of. Any one who will read that section will be puzzled to suggest any' needful power that is withheld from the commissioners. If abuses still exist in this State, if just com plaints against the railroads for dis criminations between persons and places are still unheeded, it is not the fault of th Constitution or the laws. Armed with the liberal powers con ferred by Section 22 of Article XII, three honest, able and fearless com missioners could ere now have re dressed every grievance of which rea sonable people complain. S. F. Chron icle. July 6th 785 Mormon converts landed at Castle Garden, New "York. 709 were Scandinavians, and the bal ance from England, Scotland and "Wales. -They were accompanied by 19 Mormoa missionaries, who have been about two years abroad. Their dtHlinatitm is Utah. Of all professions in the world there are .none in which the mistakes made are brought so prominently before the public as that of journalism. A mer chant makes mistakes in his figures, in his prices or weights or measures, but it does not appear where every person in the city and vicinity can see it. It is not proclaimed to thousands of eyes, nor published where all men can k;now it. If a doctor give a wrong prescrip tion it isn't known to everybody. But in journalism every such blunder is seen and noted by thousands. A word misspelled, a letter out of place, an un- grammatical sentence or a misstatement of fact, overlooked in the hurry and bustle of rapid work is pounced on by critic8,and the journalist is informed that such mistakes are inexcusable. Ashland College. From Mr. LaDru Royal, who is spending his va cation with his parents in this city, we learn that the Ashland Collegiate school, in which institution he fills the chair of natural sciences, is :n a most flourishing and prosperous condition. Prof. L. L. Rogers, formerly of Wil lamette University, is president It is the only college in all the country be tween Redding, Cal., and Eugene City. The pupils number 150 and prospects indicate a large number next term. Mr. Royal gives a very flattering de scription of the country and climate in that section which according to his ac count is quite an earthly paradise. Portland Standard.
