CUA THE TRACK.
The "Statesman" disposes of some
cold facts, regarding the laud monopoly
of Oregon, with a sneer at the Senti
nel and "Oregonian,"and then gushes
or or with sympathy for the "old pioneer,"
Just ai if sneers- or sympathy would
cover np a disagreeable reality. "Wo
haro only fcc remark that if the "old
pioneer"' stands in the way of progress
Be muBt clear the tract, whether he
like it or not, just as trail and foot-log
have given way to the wagon road and
bridge, and they been supplemented by
the iron track. We know the old pio
neer well. We came here with him and,
tor thirty two years have been his
neit;ht,or. We know that he braved
all the ''trials and privations" of fron
tier life from a purely selfish motive-
to better his condition just as other
Men pur-ane hazardous ccanatinn:
--VtV-Y-opirre
He came here for a large gift of the
virgin soil; when grass was high, and
the wild deer fat and plenty; and-if he
failed to get rich he deserves no sym
pathy; if he did get rich he obtained
just what he came here for and is
hardly entitled to be deified by gush
ing sentimentalists. like the trail
and foot-log the "old pioneer" must
give way. His shiftless methods will
no longer enrich him and, if he has
grabbed more land than he can pay
tuxes on, he must give it np to others
who will work it No one envies the
pioneer his C40 acres, although plenty
for four families, but we take a broad
view of this matter. Tillable land
must not be allowed to grow up in oak
grub, as much in the Willamette val
ley has, and prosperity be expected;
and if people hold immense tracts idle,
and so starve railroads, or other trans
portation companies, by lack of employ
ment, they havo no right to grumble at
high rates. It will, no doubt, be a sad,
sad day for the old pioneer when he
has to give up his deer hounds; when
his broad domain is cleared of the
young forest grov-'th, that has grown
up since he took possession, so that it
may grow bread for the world, but
wien that day cornea it will be a bless
ed one for Oregon. Let us have no
"gushing" over the "pVoneer" who can
only claim the merit Ipf getting here
first for; if fehad not cfivao some one
else-wouid: it the "!
. I
mits; it Js he that is in tho way of the
material prosperity of Oregon, let him
clear the track and get out of it: that
some one willing to plow and entitled
to reap may have a chance to make
bread by the sweat of his brow.
Flcnrei; Don't Uf
The "Oregnian" has published a
statement of the financial affairs of the
0. k C. R. It. that brushes away the
Ljfng statement of the Anti-Monopoly
League pretty effectually. It is shown
that the actual cash cost of the road is
S5,389,069.06instead of $2,785,016.16
as stated by the League. Tho earn
ings of the road, from its construction
to 1879 were 3 per cent on the outlay.
Since January 1st, 1880, the "West
side" and On gon and California roads
have been operated together and the
yearly-interest on the actual cost of
both roads, has been a little over one
ner cent and, on the- bonded debt, about
three fourths of one per cent.
If these profits are not sufficiently low
to suit the " Anti-Monopolists" the
company would do perfectly right; if
they tore up every mile of track and
let the growlers try th business of
railroading themselves. The selfish
motives of the few mouth-pieces of the
League are, however, so well under
&.ood that they can do no mischief, and
we doubt if any of them dare put their
names to its lyingWkrv'urccnt and go be
fore the people for ffice. If they
dare let them try it.

To toe People or Jackson, Josephine
and Del Norte Counties:
I would like to be excused from giv
ing any more-attention to the C. C.
wagon-road matter as an active promo
ter. For two years past, on account of
the C. C wagon-road, I have neg
lected my business aud suffered great
pecuniary injury by doing bo. I tocnd
DONATIONS TOO SHADOWY, PROMISES TOO
slippery, and my means too limited to
allow roe to complete the road singly.
Not wishing to be a drawback to the
welfare of these counties, I will donate
to any company or individual who will
somplete the road all the work done
and interest I have in it and my most
cordial support. H. GASQUET.

A QCESTIOX AXSTVEEED.
The Portland Standard remarks: The
Jacksonville "Sentinel" thinks Oregon
can never make her importance felt by
changing her Congressman just as he
has learned tho ropes of the Ship of
State at Washington. Did our South
ern contemporary feel that way when
the Democrats tried to re-elect Hon.
Lafayette Lane and John Whiteakerl
Whether wo did, or did not, is not
tho question and an answer, one way or
other, would not weaken our argument.
We assume that to-day, the Republi
can party is dominant in Oregon and has
the power to re-elect a representative
or to set him aside for a new man who,
like a new scholar, will take the tail
end of the class. The experience of
every member of the lower House of
Congress, from Oregon, has been that,
before he had an opportunity to obtain
a standing he was dismissed and it is
to this bad policy wo are opposed.
The Republican party at large has a
right to make tho same assumption
and, so doing, it will be exceedingly
foolish if it fail to profit by experience.
The Democrats hare set a creditable
Bhoul.d
not find fault if we follow Democratic
precedent in any thing involving the
welfare of the state. It must be ad
milted that we have a "clean" man in
Congress who feels his full responsi
bility as a representative and, while
we only call the attention ef Repub
licans to the propriety of re-nominating
Mr. Georce, in imitation of the better
policy of other states, it is doubtful if
the interest of any Democratic citizen
would suffer by his re-election.
Turned np at lost.
The "Oregenian" is threatened with a
libel suit because it published a letter
from Salem wherein one S. G. Elliott
was called a "crank," and exposed as
the author of the silly address promul
gated by the Salem League. Down
in Southern Oregon wo have an indis
tinct recollection of this S. G. Elliott
In 1864 he projected a railroad line
through this valley a most accomoda
ting line. It run through every little
town, up hill and down hill, tapped
every rich farm and, as a climax of en
gineering skill, in the town of Jackson
ville, the line made aright angle so thn
trains would run by the door of every
business house and accomodate all alike.
Contributions of grain were levied on
tho farmers. Exactions in coin were
imposed on merchants and others and
finally Elliott disappeared on the Siski
yous in a blaze of glory on his way to
nianaJfTB"10"- OT-trawMftMSsa ttomtfeXf-fSCiimfetf;-
.i -u.i i titi
waited to hear of him lo! many years..
Farmers have mourned their ill npplied
wheat; merchants their ill spent ducats
and strange are the mutations of time
behold be
turns up as a prophet;
warning the people to beware of rail
roads as unclean and unholy things;
that will surely destroy their liberties.
It is wrong to call this man a mere
"crank" for any man who would un
dertake to build a railroad from Port
land toSacramentoon wind, alone, ought
to be dignified by the name of "wind
mill," and our metropolitan contempory
should apologize. Tho "crank" is ir
responsible as he is used by a Salem
politician who would like to be TJ. S.
Senator.
The Klamath Ucsrrrntlon.
The Indian Commissioner suggests
among other things, that the bounda
ries of the Klamath Indian reservation
be moro definitely marked so that
there can be no possible conflict be
tween the Indians and the settlers
on adjoining lands. There is a large
portion ef this reservation, appropriated
to the use of a restless and wandering
"band of "Snakes," lying along Sprague
river, that ought to be thrown open to
white settlement, and the Indians
removed to the Yakima, whero the
rest of thoir band is. There is land
enough set aside for this band of worth
less, idle renegades to support a hund
red white families and thero is no
sense in reserving an average of three
thousand acres per head for Indians,
who will only use it for a hunting
ground, and compelling their white
neighbors to pay heavy taxes for their
support. The. Klamaths show a dis
position to labor and a desire to ac
cumulate property and ought to be
encouraged and protected in their
treaty rights, but the "Snakes" do not
show any improvement and they ought
to be taken whore they would be made
to labor as other people have to and,
the sooner they are made to begin, the
sooner they will become accustomed
to it. At all events; it is poor policy
to keep a large tract of land idle in
order that it may be used as a hunting
ground by a lot of worthless savages.
An appeal to Christian woman to
join the Anti-Polygamy Society is be
ing circulated in the principal cities of
the "United States. If the wisdom of
the sterner sex, in Congress, can not
cope with this devilish abomination;
let us have woman suffrage and the
women of America will soon stamp it
out The propriety of a multiplicity
of wives will never find lodgment in
the breast of the female voter.
Quinine and Arsenic
Form basis of many of the Ague reme
dies in the market, and are the last re
sort of Physicians and people who know
no better medicino to omploy, for this
distressing complaint. The effect of
either of these drugs are destructive to
tho system, producing headache, intes
tinal disorder, vertigo,dizziness, ringing
in. the cars, and depression of the con
stitutional health. Ayer's Ague Cure
is a vegetable discovery, containing
neither quinine arsenic, nor any dele
terious ingredient, and is an infallible
and rapid cure for every form of Fever
and Ague. Its effects are permanent
and certain, and no injury can result
from its use. Beside being a positive
cure for Fever and Acue in all its
forms, it is also a superior remedy for
Liver Complaints. It is an excellent
tonic and preventive, as well as cure,
of all complaints peculiar to malarious,
marshy and miasmatic districts. Uy
direct action on the Liver and biliary
apparatus, it stimulates the system to
a vigorous, healthy condition. "

Holloway's Pills Never Despair
Something that never fails Fever
and Ague To the sick it is of little
consequence how they are cured,
whether tram a rational view of th
draease'or by the rules defined for t
guidance of the profession, so long as
the cure is certain and expeditious.
To a suffering man the question on the
relative merits of quinine or calomel is
uninteresting. The faculty may
wrangle and.discuss their various theor
ies, but Dr. Holloway's treatment dis
pels doubt ere the disciples of Escula
pius have finished the first stage.
Holloway's Pills aro the only remedies
which effect a speedy and radical cure
without danger of a relapse. Read

To tjie Trade: Practical experience
has demonstrated to us that the trade re
quires a choice old Bourbon for immedi
ate use. For it is well known that straight
whisky that is absolutely pure requires
age, great care and attention, and our old
Davenport whisky possesses all the above
qualities. The grain used in the distilla
tion of our J. II. Davenport whisky is
carefully selected from the finest, richest
and very liest grown in the slate ol Ken
tucky. The water is drawn from one of
the finest limestone springs in the stite,
the peculiar properties of which have
gained lor KcntucKy whiskies such world
wide celebrity. This process makes our
J. H. Davenport a pure, hand made, sour
mash whisky, and we claim that for deli
cacy of flavor, purity and medicinal qual
ities, it stands unexcelled.
Yours truly. SciiuLrz & Von Baroen.

1. More care is taken in tho selection

2. The Wheels are all soaked in Boil

II. Every part is strongly braced; and

4. The Tires arc securely bolted, altar

5. The Skeins are heated before driven

when cooled, contract, making a perfecl
fit and impossible to work loose.
Il is the only Wagon on which "Holmes
