Notice of Sheriff's Sale.
It is thought a vote on the funding
"bill, re-arranging the debt of the Pa
cific roads to the government, will be
reached today. The Oregonian yes
terday defends the bill and accuses
Californians of wanting the govern
ment to foreclose the hen, and then
to operate the road J for the benefit cf
California, and so build up San
-Francisco at the expense of the bal
"sinee of the eoasti
We have followed the bill through
all Us stages, have rcau the argu
ments made in congress, as well as
the editorials of California's leading
papers, and we have been unable to
discover any such ulterior put pose as
the Oregonian suggests. California,
it is true, has been cinched by the
Pacific roads as 'no country on the
earth was ever cinched before.
Railroad rates have been made,
net on the basis of what the service
was worth, but on that of how much
the product would stand. The ques
tion at bar is not what effect this or
that action by the government will
have on California, but is simply one
of collecting its debt from a treach
erous and thieving debtor
its business transactions
jobber corporations, the
strong following safely into the Iie-
I publican fold. We detract nothing
from the earnest labois of otheis
when we sa' that without the ener
getic action of Senator Mitchell,
without the aid of his strong per
sonal following, Oregon today would
be what the Oregonian calls a dis
honored state. And yet that par or
dares to question his Republicanism.
Out of Luck.
Owen Ferguson, clerk of Fonil iln Lac
county, Wisconsin, shot himself Satur
day niuht, each time a little too high to
strike the heart. Ferguson is decidedly
unlucky. About a year ago his wife
died, at the lust election he was de
feated, and a few months ago lie broke
his leg, being a cripple before .hat. It
is reported that ho is also short in iiis
accounts, and lie is still alive and will
recover.

SNAKE SUICIDE.

; of settling
with these
Union and
Central Pacific; ot ceasing to fur
ther do business with them, and to
further bask them up in their rob
bery of the (people. It is not ex
pected that the government will
operate the roads, but it is expected
that it will get as much of the money
owing it as possible out of them, and
quit them dead cold.
The United States cannot afford to
be an accessory to the robbery of the
people; it cannot afford to put up
the people's moiiej in the hands of
Collis P. Huntington and his sssoci
ates to aid in the enrichment of the
latter and the impoverishment of the
former. Under the arrangement
proposed by the roads, they will owe
"the government, or the government
will have to pay for them, one billion
of dollars, an amount equal to' the
present national debt. The funding
bill will, if passed, saddle this debt j
upon the county, an.l yet congress
wrangles over it, and newspapers, j
jealous of California, and sonic in-j
fluenced perhaps by more tangible (
reasons, advocate its passage. The
secretary of the interior says the j
liens can be foreclosed and all, or
nearly all, the money due the gov
eminent collected. If this be true, ,
why extend the time of payment one
, hundred years practically without in-,
terest.
Collis P. Huntington savs he wants
4;a breathing spoil" in order to get
read' to pay. He wants one hun
dred years, in the meanwhile the
roads demand cash for ferrying the
people's products over the railroad
built with the people's money.
