The newspapers which advocate tlw
scheme to lease the Canal and Locks
are filled with speculations in regard
to the commerce of the river, so wild
a to utterly destroy the force of any
argument Unit might be urged in fa
vor of the iirojKisition, a nil to remove
wliatever trust the public might other
wise lmve in their sincerity. They are
all engaged in gvessing tliat there are
so many tons of freight in the valley
to be moved out, and so many tons to
arrive at Portland, and to tie moved
up the valley. These figures are ex
ceedingly flattering. If they could be
depended upon, they would certainly
gp far toward convincing us of the
neceitu of having more ample mean
of transportation. The Herald, for
Instance,- figures up by the pecular
system of guessing adopted by tbe
newspapers, such an enormous quan
tity of freight to paw the Locks this
year, as would yield, at 50 cents per
ton. nearly forty thousand dollars net
profit to the State. Enpassant, we
are led. to. wander why. if all this is
Me, the Company Is so anxious to
dUpoMt ef the woriWj If It really f
tnch a good thing. Why ikm't the L'esa
pany kwp it and g 't rich ?
But all this figuring by tlie HeraM.
Oregnnian and Mercury, iguoies the
hard fact that the entire freight trans
portation on the river (when the river
carried all of it) would lutve yielded
lew than half enough to pay the rent
ami repairs, as proposed by the bill
now pending. It ignores tin? further
liartl fact that the river freights have
steadily fallen off every year ince the
railroad became a competitor n the
carrying trade. It ignoi-es the hard
act that the last year's freight and
passenger tolls would have yielded not
mow: than $li(KJ0. It ignores the
reasonable supposition that the builtl
iugf tlie West Side railroad will still
further reduce the aggregate transpoi
tatiwu by the river. These are, how
ever, the facts which must be taken
into account in every argument found
ed iu reason or common sense. Xo
amount of guessing, no manner of
specu'.atioi', a id no ingenious SJphis
try can get over them.
Xow, what is there in the sins of
tlie times to justify the wild calcula
tions of these newspaper writers ? Tha
fact is that last year the freight pass
ing the Oregon City portage wsis less
than 2iC00 ton ; what is there to lead
any reasonable mind to eoiitlmle that
it will, for tlie next five years, average
eighty, or one hundred tons, as is
cl litnetl by tlie advocates of the bill ?
The growth of our population is very
slow, and there is no visible indication
ot an increase in tlie ratio. Tlie pres
ent season's crop surplus is not larger
than it was last year; and tliere is
nothing to lead to the supposition that
there will be any considerable increase
next year or the year after. It stands
as a positive tact Unit tlie last year's
business of the Willamette valley miit
be quadrupled in order to make the
tolls pay rent and repairs. Is there a
sensible bHiiness man who reckons on
such an Increase? Such a growth
would be without a parallel iu a purely
agricultural eauntry, like ours. There
is not an indication in any direction
that the increase of population or of
the productions of the country will be
even twenty-live per cent, in the tiext
five year'. At that rate of increase
for each year, the la-t year of the pro
posed term of the lease, would be the
only one in which the tolls collected
would pay the rental. We think this
a liberal estimate in tavor of the
scheme. We greatly doubt if it will
be realized. Meantime the large de
ficiencies must be made up by taxa
tion, and at the end of the term, if the
State desires to further control the
Locks, it must purchase then outright,
just as though not a cent had been
paid to the Couipauy. The lease of
the works can hardly he a business in
vestment, on any terms.
J I - IMi 31 V. X r F'O It tC' AST .
The day has passed in the United
States when corrupt and unnatural po
litical alliances can be successful, po.
litical eharlaittaury goes now for what
it is worth. False, pretenses and sn-gir-coated
vice are recognized at once,
and repudiated by the eople who are
founded, after all, in that sort of virtue
which despises cheat, antl that degree
of intelligence which surely detect
the impostor. The specious humbug
of reform offered to the Ameriean peo
ple in the mongrel Lilieral-Deinocratic.
Ta mmany - any thing- to - beat Onnt
ticket, is one that might have deceived
dny people less intelligeht than ours,
and which might-have led away from
correct political principles any people
less sternly virtuous than ours, lint
the American people have seen from
the first that it wis a cheat, that the
party offering it was made up of the
most incongruous and vicious elements
in American politics, and that, with
its inharmonious and really antago
nistic constituents it could not be de
pended upoja to carry out a single
promise even If made with the inten
tion to fulfill it. In polixiisi that party
is a mere rabble of many factions, no
two of which have any principles or
purposes in common. In tlie nature of
things they could never be, in success
or defeat, anything better than a tror-
riny rabble of factions. Tlie jieople
have seen from the first, tlmt the exe
cution of a policy could not be en
trusted to such a crowd. And not
withstanding the campaign was be
gun with a great flourishing of reform
trumpets, much beating ot very hon
est drums a dazing display of virtu
ous banners, loud prayers iu tlie streets,
and in the temple, and on the house
tops, an amazing spread ot broadened
phylacteries, etc., etc., the people have
steadily refused to be deceived, and
liave steadily entered their emphatic
protest, as often as they have spoken,
against elevating tlie Greeley-Demo-cratie
political charlatans to Uie con
trol ot public affairs. Oregon, North
Carolina, Vermont and Maine had al
ready spoken before the October test
elections. And now come Uie great
States of Pennsylvania, Ohio and In
diana, and say that the country still
trusts the Republican party, and that
it Is not yet ready to turn over its des
tinies to yie hands of a motley horde of
political adventurers. Pennsylvania
is believed to have a Republican ma
jority of 30,000. notwithstanding the
most vigorous and unscrupulous cam
paign ever made by the opposition a
majority tluit throws in the shade
every large Republican majority iu
-tt3: -fTrr-wt-; r-.
tiiat State since 1800. It exceeds tlie
most sanguine expectations of tlie Ke
pnbrkrs, and is a thunder-clap of
surprise to the Greeley-Detiiocratic
consprnitors.'e Large Republican gains
are reported in Ohio and Indiana, also.
Ohio is certainly Republican by an
overwhelming majority, and Indiana
has, doubtless, gone the same way.
The Oreeley campaign is virtually
ended. If tlie coalition is not already
dead it is utterly hopeless. During
the little more than three weeks In
terveimig before the final struggle In
all lc States, that corrupt alliance
will lose tens and twenties and tittles
ot tbousauds of voters who would have
adbered to it, had it shown any s'gns
of strength in the fall elections. We
(knobr, now, if Greeley can secure fifty
electoral votes ; and it is within the
rauge of possibilities tluit he will not
get so many as that. The deliberate
judgment of the American people is
that the Republican party which has so
honestly and failifully administered
public affairs, for the last twelve years,
shall have, at least, another four years
term. .
A BCri'EH KEAMM. ..
The Oregonian attributes the very
small showing of river transportation,
the last year, to the- fact (a It claims)
that the owners of The railroad, being
also owners ot the fluet of steamboat,
have systematically discriminated in
tavor of the railroad, fora certain pur
pose. We do not know whether any
thing of that kind has been done. We
know what the fact is. however, that
tile river ft eight s have fallen oil" fully
aoe-half since the railroad was built,
and we can see a better reason for it
than the one given by the Oregonian.
Iet us mention a few laets : It costs
no more to ship by steamboat than by
railroad ; but the steamboats, fur sev
eral mouths, have not been able to get
further up than Salem, and they now
reach this point only with great dilliciil
ry and expense, and w ith less limit a
third of a loud. Twenty-live or thirty
tons is Uie most that any of them can
carry. They sink money every trip
they make under such circumstances.
Tlie delays and uncertainties of river
freighting are such that shippers pre
fer to pay even higher rates by the cer
tain and cxpt.-ditiou railroad. There
are perhaps not a hall dozen places
along the riyer where grain is bt-ing
stored in any considerable quantities,
for shipment by steamboats, alter the
rising of tlie river to a boating stage.
But we all know that the warehouses
along the railros d are already cram
med full of wheait. while niiioh 1ms
lceii shipped. Tbere is a reason for
it. It Is that the coming o a boating
stage ot water is mo-t Uncertain ;
while the railroad is sure for transpor
tation an day.' It is a prime object
with the farmer to h:ce his grain iu
the market at the proper day ; hence,
he will always ship' largely by the
quickest and surest routes. Xuture
has discriminated against steamboat
ingonthe Willamette. For half the
year there is no navigation. And just
when the farmer most wants transpor
tation, he could not get it on the river,
it any cost. This explains fully and
fairly why the transportation business
has so greatly talleu otf. The owner
ship of the canal and lock, cannot,
manifestly, make any ditl'erence with
t.;a physical conditions we have stated.

t le freight is to lie carried cheaper by
passing it through the Canal and Locks

only 10 cts. per ton to pass it through
the portage warehouses. What will
apply in relation to the steamboats.
will apply also to tlatboats, skitls
canoes or raft, as freight-carries. To
our mind, it is clear that our corres
pondent of yesterday, hit the nail on
the head when he said tlmt the only
w.iy to secure cheap freights is through
competition, not between locks and
portage, but among tlie carriers.
Would it not be well tor our Legis
lators to delay action upon the pend
ing hilt to lease the Locks at Willam
ette falls, until the sovereign people.
the tax payers can lie heard from ?
They have delegated to their Repre
sentative power to carry out their
wishes and enact such laws as will
add to their well being and prosperity.
Their will should control the action of
their servants. Give them an oppor
tunity to express tlieir views, and
then legislation may lie proceeded
with intelligently. All who are most
interested in the navigation of the
river, with, whom we have conversed,
are decidedly opposed to the proposed
plan. They cannot see that the price
of freight will be reduced thereby,
while they can see tliat an indebted
ness will be incurred which will over
burden and impoverish the State at
large, cripple commerce, and weaken
the energies of those laborers and pro
ducers whom the advocates of the hill
are apparently so anxious to benefit
and protect.
Even the graves are nibbed in tlie
endeavor to find "Greeley men."

SALEM, OREGON,
Awim-n viixai.w motoied.
Yesterday afteriioon.tlie Senate pass
ed with some amendments the bill to
amend the"Portland Police Bill." The
amendments will be concurred in by
the House, no doubt; and we do not
believe the Governor will be weak
or unwise enough to interpose his veto.
He knows too well how much thnt vill
ainous law had to do with defeating
the Democraty last June, and his own
aspirations for the L'. S. Senate. The
bill which has just passed the Senate,
gives to the citizens of Portland, the
choice of their own Police Commission
ersand tlie control of their own domes
tic affairs something of which they
ought never to have been deprived. It
will be hailed with satisfaction by
nineteeii-twentieths of the people of
Portland and will be universally, out
side of that city, recognized as a mea--ure
of simple justice. There never was
but a small "ring" In Portland that
wanted the law ot li70, and that ring
numbers now no more than the Polic?
Commissioners and their creatures, f:f
the Police torce. A most righteous
act has lieen juit done liy the Le-i-':t-t

ing this kind of tremendous blows at
the iniqiiitou; work ofls7y.

The rTemld of yesterday gives cur-
ifiicy to a "iiiuior" which, it says, is
current in "-oeial circles." to the effect
that the Northern Pacific K.-iiroad Co.
has purchased in Germany, the bonds
of the Oregon and California Railroad
Co. and the Oregon Central Kail toad
Co. We have interviewed Mr. Holla
day himself in regard to this '-rtiinor,"
and he authorizes us to say that not a
dollar of the bonds has been purchased
by tiie Northern Pacific Railroad Co.,
mid that there is not the least founda
tion of truth for any single feature of
the rumor. It is unquestionably an
outright invention of a "social circle"
which has an axe to grind. The Her
ald seems to be the centre of a "social
circle" which is very active in tlie "ru
mor" business, or else its editor is one
of the most gullible of men.
cam roi. Apruoriu.n IO.V
The bill to appropriate, one hundred
thousand dollars to commence the
erection of a State Hoose, became :i
law yesterday, so far as I-gitlative ac
tion is concerned. Tlie Senate passed
the House bill by a vote of '20 to 2, and
amotion to reconsider was indefinitely
postponed, which makes the action
final. The bill now only awaits the
approval of the Governor, which is not
at all a matter of doubt. Tims, after
years ot delay, the Slate will next
Spring undertake a most necessary
work, which ought to lutve been le
fore now completed. Aside from any
question of economy or proper State
pride, the action of this Legislature is
wise, as it will settle definitely the lo-
cation of the capitol anil remove a
vexatious question fnm future poli
tics. We think it will be universally
approved.
The apparent falling off of the Rt
pablican majority of Ohio is the re-ult
of a local feud in Hamilton comity
(Cincinnati) which has always lieeu tin;
reliance of the Republicans to earn"
the State. As it is, the result shows
clear Republican gain, outside of the
Cincinnati district, ot whatever the
majority may prove to be. The influ
ence which worked against the Re
publicans in Cincinnati were confined
to the State election, and will be felt
but little, if any, iu the Presidential
election, next mouth.
Speakers in the last campaign ven
tillated the action of the Legislature of
1S70, 0:1 the subject of the Canal anil
Locks, and promised the people that
no similar wrong should be committed
in the event the Republicans got con
trol of the present Assembly. Upon
this assurance many leniocrats voted
the Republican ticket. Now, would it
not be well for Republican members to
duly consider the effect of their action
before doing anything which could he
construed into a violation of these
pledges. Let it not be said that our
promises have been disregarded, or
that the course of the Democracy in
1870 lias been sustained anil vindicated
by Republicans.
The Pittsburg Commercial says : "It
is understood that Senator Thunnan
and most of the leading Ohio iH-mo-crats
are secretly opposed to Greeley."
Nor is this disgust of the entire busi
ness confined to Ohio. It is every
where, and a grand stampede may be
confidently looked for.
One of the principal sttr ip orators
for Grant is Greeley himself. We
doubt if any twenty other stumpers
have lost Greeley so many votes or
made so many for Grant, as has Gree
l.v, since he started to swing round
the circle.
The Iowa Suite election this year
will not come off till November. Hith
erto that State elected State officers in
October, but, by a law which goes into
effect this year for the first time, the
time is changed to Nov. 5.
It is a maxim among lawyers that
whoever pleads his owu case lias a fool
for a client. Greeley lias been plead
ing his own Presidential case iu Penn
sylvania. Ohio, and Indiana, and as
usual, when a bungler undertakes a
job of that kind, the client has lost his
case.

StK : Allow me to bring to vour at
tention that Bill No. 12, for the Salt
Lake Railroad, imposes heavy respon
sibilities upon tlie company engaged
iu the construction of the road, which
must be met within the next thirty
days. Tlie survey and location must
l made to Baker City, and the branch
route explored to Baker Citv; the
survey arid location of the PortHge
Sink must be completed, and maps
and profiles made ot the work ; to ac
complish which additional surveying
parties must be put in the Held. An
this and more must be done before I
leave for Washington, to be there at
the meeting of Congress. I am In
formed by our Engineer, now iu the
IJliie Mountains, that bv the 15th inst.
Um survey and location will have
reached AJratid Rondo Valley, where
my personal attention is required to
settle upon a route best calculated to
accommodate the agricultural interests
of tiiat valley. To this end the survey
will stop at tlie entrance of the valley
until I can be present, and so a large
imaty'of men w ill be idle at heavy ex
pense. Such amendments to tlie bill as are
necessary to make clearer. If possible,
the protection to the public will be
readily acceded to in tlie Senate Com
mittee, witliout incurring any delay.
I make these statements tliat such
course may be taken in furtherance of
the measure as the good juilgment ol
the House may dictate.

tu"t I can see but little in tlie bill, as
i it was presented to the House, but a
bold attempt to gobble down a tew
more hundred thousand dollars of tho
precious treasure of the State. I liave
always been in favor ot internal ini
irureiueHts and am still so. A canal at
tliese falls has long been a favorite
theme with uie. Some ten years ago
I spent some time iu an examination
of the Falls with reference to the con
struction of a canal on the Oregon City
side. I estimated as carefully as i
could the construct ion of a canal on
that side of Uie river; and I would
then, and am still willing to take a
much less sum than the State has al
ready given Umj present company and
insure the work to answer the purjioso
is well as tliar now m construction,
aid then would have given Ihe canal
up to the State f,.r what reasonable
profit i might lie able to make out ot
tiie job. lint some will think this is
all wind; well let them think so if
tliey will, liutto the merits of the bill
and the probable profits of the canal to
the State if it were to lease Ihe name.
Nearly every estimate of tlie pros
jiective value of the tonnage transit by
said canal has been li-ed hmii tlr

the previous Legislature to whom Ihey
mude their pnqiositioti to tiiustria.-t.

thousand dollars. IJnt we
oSl; dit to ronieinlier that that was an
exceedingly fruitful year. Pcr'iUK
more freight went flown tlie river fiatu
in any previous year. Hull witlnxir
doubt more than ever will again; ami
we veiiTiii-e uie assenion. twice a-'
much as has gone that way the prveiir
year. Instead ot llietreight iiicrt'asinf

caiev. no matter what the price f

side will approximate so nearly to the
same figure lint the freight will iinve
by litem instead of the river. Tli'e

Hence the disposition will lit? to store

which we beiieve to lie coirect, it is
quite sure that the prospective revenue
ot said canal is not very flattering.
We ii.ilicMlatiugly venture the asser
tion that it never will pav ten per cenr

I has any, will not be in dollars and
cents, but like the safety-valve attach

way you will, we see no cause ot alarm

TU; question ot the advantage at

letting the sheep go at large, when
compared with shepherding the sheep
on unfenced runs has now been pretty

mated that tlie sheep have at least on
an average one pound ol wool more
when they are permitted to go tin
sheplierded. Nor is this all the wool
is decided cleaner more- free from
dirt ot "gritty" substances, and has
more yolk, so that the advantage-si of
fenced stations are undeniably great ;

Women sometimes do not value
tlielr husbands as tliey ought. They
not untreqitcntly leant the value ot a
good husband for the first time bv the
loss of him. Yet tha husband is Uie
very roof-tree of the house, the corner
stone or the edifice, the keystone ot
the arch Called home. He is the bread
witur of the family, the defense and
glory, the beginning and the ending
of Uie golden chain of life which sur
rounds it ; Its consoler, it law-giver
mid its king. And yet we see how
frail that life isou which so much de
pend? ! How trail I the life ot a hus
band and a father ! When he is taken
away who shall fill Ills place? Wheu
bo is ill, what gloomy clouds hover
over the house ! Wlien he is dead what
what darkness, weeping, agony .' Theu
poverty, like the niiu-derous asaslu,
breaks in at the windows; starvation,
like a famishing wolf, bowls at the
door. Widowhood is too often Uie
associate of sackcloth and ashes. Or
phanhood, too, means desolation and
woe."
Mark Twain gets off the following
to a "Young Author" iu his "Answers

cannot help you to a decision about
the amount you need to eat at least,
not with certainty. If the specimen ot
composition you send is about a fair,
usual average, I should judge that.
