an or populist, all for the same
pi ice, and all written oy tne same
person,
It takes an Oregonian some time
to get his bearings in this great
movintr mass of humanity, but a
few months spent in our Motional !
Capital is a pretty good education
to any American citizen, even
though he be well educated and a
man of large experiences, To one
like your bumble servant it is time 1
and money well spent, for one can
not know too much about our own
great country. ,
I am not1 here for the purpose of
looking up any old claims, or to
pull any strings on 'Cleveland for
office; however I have met quite a
number of people who were looking
out for a job of that kind, some of
them from Oregon. When I first
arrived there were a number of Ore
gon democrats here looking for
friends, as it were, but from what
little we have been able to find out
it seems to be the policy of the ad
ministration to thoroughly investi
gate each applicant's claim before
writing him a commission, and it
was given out that an applicant
must have endorsements from old
line democrats, and not the Weaver
wing of the democratic party,
We saw our old friend Willaim
Radir, of real estate fame, several
months ago, He seemed to be
haunting the Oregon delegation,
but we were not able to find out
what his wants were, but think
that he was wanting the center of
population moved west of the Rocky
Mountains
We had oui curiosity gratified
the other day by seeing a real live
president, and you can well imagine
the chains of thoughts that would
naturally pass through the mind of
a Moss-back, from Oregon, on be
holding a live president (or the
first time, I stood and gazed upon
his portly form until the car door
closed and shut him and little Ruth
in, and they were soon speeding on
to Buzzard Bay. Right here we
wish to say that Buzzard is an
Awfully bad smelling name for a
president pf the United States to be
mixed up with, We remember
when the Oregon legislature
changed the name of Bull creek, in
Eastern Oregon, to a more modest
pne. Why not Dave Hil look aftfr
this matter.
We have written our old wife,
who is taking care of our possessions
out in Oregon God's country
while we are doing the great Capi
tal, that we still have hopes of
Oregon having presidential timber
after seeing Cleveland. 'Of course
Pennoyer is too big a fool, and Jim
Loten don't want it, but Eastern
Oregon is to be heard from.
One would suppose from the
newspaper reports that all the two
old parties did was to curse the
administrations, the retiring and
present, but such is sot the case.
Out of session one may see senators
and congressmen, of different polit
ical views, arm in arm or laughing
at the report some correspondent
has sent oul to his home paper Lr
political effect. All this howl
about hard times under a demo
cratic administration reads very
well in big head-lines in country
newspapers, but the cold facts don't
always bear out these windy asser
tions. It seems a little strange
that the democratic party, who
have been in power less than two
years, and before they bad done any
legislation, could bring on these
hard times, and it is singular that
these great United States with her j There is going to he a strong
sixty millions of people and with , appeal made to the next legislature
all the wealth and prosperity ac-; for the re-enactmeut of the mort
cumulated under thirty years of gage tax law and the exemption for
republican prosperity, should be indebtedness law. These laws were
knocked into a cock hat, as it were, ' repealed by the last legislature by
in so short a time. Is it possible
a11 these yeaTS . ood es
af good times
when our wage earners grow richer
jaws, or nave uasscu ts;iv taws, mm
then if they are not up to the stand-
ard of past legislation fire the ras
cals out, but never cross a bridge
till you get to it. It has been said
that this is a government of the
people and for the people, and the
American people are getting to be
an educated people, a reading peo
pie, a thinking and reasonable peo
plej and they are going to watch
the results of the Wilson bill and
ley says it will make the poor poor
er. The Oregon delegation have gone
home. Little Hermann is always a
busy man, for he has the interest of
his people at heart and the people
may rest assured that he will do all
in his power for the whole state of
Oregon, favoring no especial local
ity. A9 we expect to be here for some
time ere we return to Oregon aud
the great Willamette valley, Ve
may send you a line at another
time. From what information we
have been able to pick up in the
two or three western states that we
have passed through, we are of the
opinion that Oregon is going to get
a very large immigration this fall
and next spring. People are get
ting tired of cyclones and uncertain
crops, and talk of Oregon more than
any other western state, although
Oregon has never been advertised
like our sister states of Washington
and California.
The building of the Oregon Pa
cific on to 'Eastern Oregon will
cause Oregon and the Willamette
valley to get more settlers than they
naturally vou,ld from the fact that
one-half of the emigration that has
come west of the Rocky mountains
during tne past eignt or ten years
never reached the great Willamette
valley, but many of them stop in
Washington, and some reach Port
land, but if the 0. P, was com
peted it would bring the people di
rect to th very heart of the 'Wil
lamette valley at Albany and they
would scatter out all over the state,
From the vast amount of litigation
that haa grown out of the building
of the Oregon Pacific it has become
one of the best advertised roads in
tne United states and people are
watching its career, even inside of
well-known railroad circles, Most
people in Oregon think that the
Hoggs are out of the railroad fight,
but they are mistaken, for men of
the business capacity of the Hoggs
are likely to turn up any day with
money enough to build the road to
an eastern terminus. It is a well
known fact that that the Hoggs are
not sleeping, From the very fact
that Yaquina. Bay gets a good ap
propp'ation from congress at every
session is evidence that it is a bar
bcr of great importance, and must
soon take place with known harbors
like the Golden Gate and the Col
umbia river. Therefore it is folly
to think for one minute that money
will not .be forthcoming from some
source to build the Oregon Pacific
to an eastern connection with some
transcontinental line and unlock
th; wealth of a mighty ir.laml em
pire.
Mo 89 Back,
From Oregon.
This morning Robert Johnson
became ramrod - of the Corvallis
postoffice, with Miss Eda Jacobs
and Lee Beach as deputies. Judge
Moor, the retiring postmaster, has
served two and a half years and
throughout that time has been an
efficient, affable and courteous of
ficial. Corvallis Times,
reason of the very vigorous crusade
made against them by the money
loaning classes. Their stock argu
ment was that if these laws were
repealed a-large amount of foreign
capital would immediately flow into
the state, that loans would be,
easier, the rate of interest be ' re
duced and prosperity would follow
as a material blessiiijr. Yieldine
1 to the strong pressure brought, the
iciaiuLuic iciJcciiuu iut; laws, uuv
alas for the frailty of humau promt
ises, the influx of foreign capital
never came; nor was the rate of
interest reduced on loans, but on
the contrary was raised,, and the
general prosperity that was to crowd
upon the state as a result of the re
peal has pro ven to be only a shadow
of a promise, The actual resalty
however, has been to work a hard
ship upon the very class of our
people that are least able to bearitj
It is compelling our debtors to sub
mit to a double taxation while it
permits the credjtors, who are se
cured by a mortgage, to . escape,
entirely the burden of taxation. '
The merchant who has book ac
counts to the amount of several
hundred dollars, many of wi ich
accounts are entirely worthless, end
all of them unsecured, is taxe 1 tn
all of them, the good, bad and in
different, but the money loaner
right alongside who holds a mort
gage upon some of the same people
go free of taxation. The man who
has gone in debt for a home is
taxed on his property and his in
debtedtiessf.also,,but the tpan wbq
'holds the mortgage 'on his home
"rocs untaxed. This is the price
that Oregon is paying to get the
influx of capital that never came,
It is no small wonder then that
there will be a great cry go up for
the re-enactment of these jus.1, laws,
But the chances are largely against
getting them, It will probabl be
true that the greater part of the
legislative members from the
country districts will be in favor of
such laws; burthey ' will be met
with a strong force from Multnomah' "
and Marion comities, to which will
be added the heavy weight of a
wealthy and unscrupulous lobby
and the result is too easily foretold.
But these reforms must some time
be again placed on the statute
books of Oregon.
Interesting' to Women Settlers.
A. decision which will be tead '
with interest by women settlers all
over Washington has been received
at the local land office. One of the
most important points covered is in
the case of E, V, Njx vs, Mary J,
Simon, an Oklahoma woman, whose
husband was still alive when she
attempted to prove up on her claim, :
Secretary Hoke Smith decided in N
her favor and declares that deserted
wives hays always been permitted
as heads of families to make home
stead entries, The wives of insane
men have the same - privilege; and
therefore, where a woman's ' hus
band is totally disabled by age,
disease or infirmity from doing any
mental or physical work, and the
physicians pronounce such infirmity
permanent, the wife, as the bead of
a family which must depend on her
for support, is entitled to a home
stead. Another important ruling in that
state is that selections of lands
within or in close proximity to
mineral lands must be governed by
the same rules as the selection of
railway companies' lands under the.
same circumstances. '
