THE ASHLAND TIDINGS PMPAT......................................... .M ARCH M, IMS SOUTHERN OREGON. Iu Northern Oregon railroad« are building in every direction, new enterprises are starting, new towns are springing up,and a rush of progress is everywhere visible. The railroads that have been con structed and those in course of construction are outnumbered by those projected. And many of the projects aré more than mere newspaper projiositions; they are the plans of capitalists who are able to build and willing to invest. The sudden impulse given to rail road building in Oregon within the past year is the result of the competition of the capital inter ested in the transcontinental rail road lines of the country. The position of our state with regard to these lines and the natural ad vantages for which they are striv ing is fortunate, and we already see the fruits of the influx of cap ital. The completion of the Jay Gould line and the Northern Pa cific will render possible and nec essary the building of numerous branch lines to tap the many fer tile and yet undeveloped valleys that will soon be densely popula ted. The ¡mínense “inland em pire” on the eastern slope of the Cascades, now settling up with almost unparalleled rapidity, will urge forward with its vast trade the development of the western section of the state, and the mate rial progress of Oregon in the past, surprising as it has been,will seem sluggish and baiting in compari son with that which is to come. IIow will all this affect South ern Oregon, is the question which, of course, most interests us. How much will it help us? It is ap parent that the increase of the population and the business of the country contiguous to this section would tend to materially increase the population and the business here. The natural attraction of our valleys, their healthful and en joyable climate, and tbe opportu nities they offer for making a live lihood easily will bring many new inhabitants. But what di rect commercial advantages will accrue to us? Will railroads come to us over the mountains and give to us the markets we need in or der to make the most of our re sources? Our position will not permit us to feel the first throbs of the new life and development brought into the state by the rail road kings, but the tide must reach us, sooneror later, and we are san guine enough to hope that it will not be as long in coming as is gen erally supposed. The fierce com mercial strife between San Fran cisco and the city of the North west that will be inaugurated by the completion of railroad connec tion between Northern Oregon and the Eastern states, will not pernrt the trade of the country lying be tween the Siskiyous and the Rogue River mountains to go a begging. We are helpless now, but the day will come, and that before many years, when the people of this val ley will have a choice of railroads upon which to go to the city. We believe a railroad to the coast, would be of greatest benefit to the country, and hope to see it built“ within the next decade. Kearney was arrested a short time ago upon the charge of at tempted disturbance of the peace by language calculated to incite the rabble to lawless violence. He was tried in the police court last week and sentenced to six months’ imprisonment in the House of Correction and to pay a tine of one thousand dollars. The mag nitude of the sentence was a sur prise to Kearney, who had ex pected to get off* with a nominal punishment. It is probable that he will take tbe case to the Su preme Court on habeas corpus. Kearney would no doubt be safer within the walls of the House of Correction than he would be be hind his uncontrollable tongue on the sand lots, and if he has any discretion, he will quietly submit to the sentence. ■------------ ■ *♦ ♦ --------------------------- A correspondent of the Mon tana New Northwest,writing from Omaha, and who has had good opportunities of learning what is intended, says: “Surveyors will at once be put on the route from Ogden to Portland for a broad gauge road, aud no doubt a con siderable portion of the line will be built thia year. I think the route will be through Boise City.” ------ Senator Slater writes that the military authorities, he thinks, will not abandon camp Harney, and he has protested against it. The fort may be removed to the upper end ot the valley near Warm Springs. Press dispatches report a stormy interviev’ between Senator Teller, of Colorado.and Secretary Schurtz upon the Ute Indian question. Teller said Schurtz had not con sidered the interests of the people of Colorado in the agreement made with the Indians, and that the Utes were congratulating them selves on bavins secured advan tages they did not possess before the outbreak. Secretary Schurz replied that he had done the best he could, and. had spent several weeks of patient labor and anxiety in trying to secure an agreement. He d:d not propose to look only to the advantages of the people of Colorado, but to the advantages of the Indians and the eutire govern ment. It the people of Colorado did not like it they need not com plain to him. He had done all that was required of him. To which Teller responded that he should defeat the arrangement when it came up in the Senate. Schurz became angry and attempt ed a little bulldozing, using some strong language. Teller told him that he could not talk fast enough, nor loud enough, nor long enough to frighten him from doing what he thought was best for his con stituents, anfl that he would use all the influence he could exert to prevent what he called the surren der being ratified by Congress. He told Secretary Schurz that the the Indians had beaten him in di plomacy, just as they had beaten the army in battle; and there would be no peace in Colorado as long as they supposed that the Government was afraid of them. Latest reports are to the effect that the distress in the famine dis tricts of Ireland is increasing. The mayor of Tucson. Arizona, which place, was founded by the Spaniards in 1642, has telegrahed the mayor of San Francisco the President of the United States and the Pope, that the Southern Pacific Railroad is completed to that place. --------- • >.-------------------- One of the most powerful cor porations in the West is the great stage and mail-carrying firm of Salisbury, Gilmer à Co.

The land is situated two and a half miles southeast of Ashland on the stage road; nearly all tillable and productive land, some garden land, plenty of fire wood and water; price $600.

Marshals, not paid by the last appropriation bill, came up in the House of Repre sentatives last Friday aud worked one of the most exciting debates of the session. The proposition as finally adopted provides, in the first place, for the payment of the $7,600 due to California Deputy Marshals of Elections, and next provides that all such officers shall hereafter be appointed by United States Judges in equal numbers from different political parties^md be paid five dollars per diem. No restriction is placed upon the number tbrfB may be appointed. ------------ -«• w <b- —................. — In a recent speech in the House of Representatives, Fernando Wood made som£ savage thrusts at Secretary Sherman, charging him with favoring his pet. the First National Bank of New York, at the Government’s expense, aud with selling bonds at two per cent, less than they were selling for in the market on the same day.

Brethren in good In a lecture to a New York au dience last week upon “China and the Chinese,” by Gifford F.Parker, The mode adopted fjr getting Chinese emigrants to San Fran cisco was dwelt upon at length. The usual agreement, the lecturer said, was a bond to serve a bro ker for five years at $10 ¡»er month, the advanced money to be paid out of the coolie’s wages. When it was remembered that 100.000 Chinamen were paid $30 per month, there was a profit to some body of $2,000,000 monthly. It was generally supposed that the mandarin, the broker and the bix Companies of Nan Francisco di vided this enormous amount among them.
