EDITOBI 1L NOTLSi
The Willamette valley is Jubilant
and excited' over the presence of a
circus. Thero has not been a- show
here for three weeks and lots of people
who cant- pay the smallest kind of a
grocery bill are mourning the lack of
amusement. They are to be sympa
thised with.
Chief Lappus of the Portland police
has been removed and W. II. Wat
kinds appointed in his place. This is
ft fair selection but whenever William
begins to speculate in such ghastly
property as the ' Bradly plant" and
wink at open violations of the law he
should go also.
The "Northwest News" h con
tinually prodding tho "Oregonion" by
exposing its editorial thefts from
Eastern exchanges. If the "News"
had the slightest consideration for the
readers of the "Oregouiart" it would
hush up- as the stolen- cditoria's are
much better reading than any thing
produced in Oregon would be.
National politics are already begin
ning to simmer and the all absorbing
question is: what city is to -be enriched
by the gathering of the republicm
National Convention and the usual
large crowd of strangers. If our dem
ocratic friends were assured of the
offices they would scarcely wrangle
over so trifling a point as the place of
holding tho convention.
The San Francisco "Post" predicts
that by the time all legal resources are
expended in the case of Miller, the
alleged murderer of Dr. Glenn, "it will
be conclusively shown that Dr. Glenn
shot himself in tho hack with a double
barreled shot gun." If the defense
will send to Jacksonville for witnesses
they can prove that "Sours," who cut
Charley Hanna, was tho uun that
hurried Dr. Glenn oQT
The telegraph strike throughout the
United States commenced at 9 A. jr.
on Thursday. It is a heavy and ex
pensive "blow to the commercial in
terests of the country but the Western
Union next to the Central Pacific in
greed and rapacity will bo a heavy
loser. The telegraphic fratprnity are
hard worked and poorly paid consid
pring the years of experience required
and it is to bo hoped that they will be
able to force reasonable terms from a
corporation thut gets greedier a3 it
grows richer.
Ourcotem says Sheriff Jacobs knows
his duty without suggestions from out
siders. If our memory serves us right
jt is only two weeks since Sheriff
Jacobs was arrested by order of
the Hon. Dist. Court of tins- Dis
trict for contempt. Now "contempt"
is certainly no part ot a sherifTH duty
and, logically. Judge Hanna is guilty
of a great b'under or sheriff' Jacobs
didnt know his duty. The "Times"
can grab cither horn of the dilemma
but will probably stand by the sheriff
as his patronage is mostproGtable.
The point for the depot for the center
of this valley and where the freight
and passengers for Jacksonville will be
landed is- yet unselected no matter
what any one may say to the contrary.
There is a manifest disposition on the
part of the railroad managers to con
sult the wishes of the peopla of this
town respecting the site and, as thii is
the most important shipping point in
the valley, such a concession is certain
ly due us. It is then to be presumed
that the depot will; in consideration of
our convenience, be Tit tho nearest
possible point to Jacksonville.
The consolidation of Washington
Territory with Oregon as a- Co lection
' District is centainly a-serioui mistake.
The work in tho Internal Revenue
Office in this State, which is only one
district, has been constantly increasing
and the force has been entirely inade
quate to dischargo the duties. The
consolidation, however may result in a
re organization which will give South
ern Oregon a Deputy Collector. Such
an officer is badly needed here and
Bhoald ho be appointed he will find
plenty of work for his pay and be an
accommodation to the public besides.
Ex. Gov. McOoofc'cf Arizona thiuks
Indian criminals fchould be punished
the same as their erring white
brethren who commit crime. Cook is
correctbut it is catching beforehanging
and, after the Apache , devils were
captured by Genl. Crook, none of-the
brandies of the government wanted the
responsibility of either hanging or feed
ing them. They should havo been
turned over to tho Mexicans whose
country they havo so long plundered
.with impunity. That pople would
have slight scruples in converting them
to "cood Indians'- by the hempen
method,
Chapter on Ballroadt.
The near approach of the rnilroad is
a subject of much speculation and
divers opinions are held concerning its
prospective benefits and disadvantages.
Some think it will ruin our valley;
some, going to the other extreme,
declare that it will make this portion
of Oregon an Elysium and that, when
it reaches us, the col den link will have
been forged that will bind us to fortune.
It is difficult to see how it can damage
the trade or ii jure the prospects of a
section now almost entirely agricul
tural and; on the other hand it is not
quite apparant that unearned prcs
perity a ill ba forced on us, whetfcer
we will or not. No one has reason to
say in advance that we will be treated
unfuirly by the railroad company and,
judging by their policy towards the
community nortn of us wo shou'd
rather predict the reverse. Assuming
fair and equitable treatment and the
lowest possible freights ifc remains with
ourselves to decide whether we will
take advantage of the new order of
things or net; by producing something
that can be transported to a market at
a profit or sit idly and listen to the
rush of the passing.trains in expectancy
of picking up a harvest of greenbacks
when they shall have assed. Those
who drift into the new channels of
trade opened by our connection with
the outside world will profit by the new
order of things but those who set and
suck their thumbs mourning for the
o"d pioneer days and cursing the rail
road because they dont get suddenly
rich, will find themsplves left. The
question of freight and fares will have
-omething to do with the problem of
our ruin or our prosperity and, no
doubt, -the railroad company will be
wise enoigh to pursue that policy that
will conduce most to the growth of this
section and, ns a natural sequence to
their o-vn advantage. At all events
we see no reason to predict disaster or
indulge in premature rejoicing.
Lands Withdrawn.
We mentioned last week that there
was a strong probability that all lands
within the railroad limits would be
withdrawn and the odd numbered sec
t ions revert to the campany. By fa"or
of Hon. W. F. Benjamin, Register of
the Roseburg land offices we give the
public the following information. The
terminal lino of withdrawal extends
diagonally from nar the center of the
east line of Twp 33 S R 1 W of Will-
nmette Meridian to the S W corner of
Twp 33 S R 5 W and passes near the
head of the right hand' fork of Jackson
ceek. Mr. Benjamin's lptter under
date of Jul) 17th is authoritative and
will be better understood than the
garbled press reports on this subject.
It says:
Ed. SnxriXEL: From and after 16 th
inst nil odd numbered sections of land
opposite the line of definite location of
the 0. & C. R. R. within the 30 miles
limit are withdrawn from sale to the
east line of section 21 T 3G S R 3 W
and nil even numbered sections within
the 20 'miles limits nre increased to
2.50 per acre. All pre emption filings
made priorto the date of filing the
digram of withdrawal will be allowed
to perfect cntrv at 1.23 per acre.
All entries within the ten milo in
demnity limits on even numbered sec
tions will continue to be sold at SI 25
per acre. No cash entries will be
allowed hereafter within 20 miles limits
and the even sections can only be en
tcred by pre emption homestead on
timber entries under ace of June 3
187S all at 2.50 per acre Home
stesd entries will cost now within the
20 miles limits as follows: 160 acres,
522; 120 acres, 19; 80 acres, $11, 40
acres, 8; and within the indemnity
limits on the even sections the same
as heretofore. Yours truly,
Wm. F. Benjamin.
Well limed.
Our contemporary his some well
timed remarks in last weeks issue on
the lack of public spirit in Jackson
ville but we doubt if any thiug short
of a keg of dynamite or Gabriel's horn
will ever wake up our sleepy, selfish
citizens. When an efloit was made to
have tho railroad built so as to touch
the nearest possible point to Jackson
ville a few liberal citizjni stepped foi
ward and contributed more, in pro
portion to their prospective gain, than
could revonably be demanded and the
rest lay back laughing in their sieves
to see others paying for the seeding.
while they were to reap the harvest.
Thi project fell through, however, and
llioso w ho showed a mean and niggard
ly spirit must stand or fall with the
balanceormake room fon people who do
not regard the rest of the community
only as a leech does a bit of flesh.
Some day the inistako that was made
will be more plain than now and if a
liberal etfort is not made to connect us
with the railroad by means of a first
class macadamized road the error will
be a second one that will result disas
trously to Jacksonville
THE FUTUItE OBEUON.
One need not be a prophet or a seer
to predict that Oregon will be a popu
lous and thrifty State inside of fifteen
years. Perhaps it is both populous
and thrifty already, in a certain sense;
but there is in store, for this State
much that is not dreamed of. Let us
take two States Georgia in the South
and our own Oregon. Georgia has
nine Representatives in Congress and
Oregon has one. Within twenty
years, at the outside, Oregon will have
a representation greater than Georgia;
and Georgia is the most progressive
State in the South to day.
Oregon is the beauty spot of the
Northwest, and the people of the East
are looking this way. They looked
toward 'the South at the close of the
war; they sent 'their money down there
and built railroads and cotton mills.
They tried in every way to assure the
people that there was no line between
sections; and there was an effort on the
part of those who went into the South
to persuade themselves that all was
lovely. But all was not lovely, and
there were losses that taught investors
.to draw out, and look for o'ther fields.
The Northwest is tho best of all the
fields, and the enterprise and capital
will make a break for this quarter.
Along the intervening country there
is opportunity for large investment;
but it is on a scale of mining or ranch
ing that does not call for miscellaneous
investment. We see the glories of
broad acred wealth' in Dakota and
Montana-and-admire it; but here in
Oregon we have society, wealth,
sell "ols and all that goes to make life
perfect; and, added to this, room for
limitless addition to the population.
Of course if is possible to-delay the
consummation of Oregon's future
greatness. It is possible by a sort of
clannish- proscription- to discouratei
new enterprises. Something of this
has been manifested toward our own
paper, but there has been an over
whelming majority of substantial wel
come that has served to plant' us on
the rock of ages; and this makes us
believe that the spirit of liberality and
welcome will predominate anil lead to
future greatness. It is certain that
what lingering spirit of proscription
there-is nvust'go t& the wall, and that
the generous spirit of welcome will
prevail. It is for the goid cf all that
we should make room and say "Cornel"
There can bo Nothing for Oregon in
the role of a sequestered corner; and
since it is true that Portland, as the
principal city, seems to nil incoming
htrangers to be a mnst desirable place,
it must follow, tlrat the tide will set
this way. It is the selfish who are
crowded not the generous. The gen
erous succeed, and. the spirit that
gives welcome to every-new enterprise
will be the soul and life of tho Oregon
of the near future. "Northwest
