Railroad and Steamer.
Arrangements aro about completed for the
surreuder by Mr. Ilollatlay or all his inter
ests In Oregon railroad-), as well as in our
ocean and river trati.'poituUon, (o tho Our
msn bonddjlders or llio O. it C. railroad. It
Is asserted ulsa with what (ruth we c.iunot
say that the railroads will soon be trans
fdrred to tho Central Pacific company, or to
tho same peron wlio control that corpora
tion In California. It is to ba hoped that
any change will bo moro satisfactory than
Mr. Uolladay'a administration of our rail
to&d Interest, for while we do not claim
that tlio roads themselves have boon un
rsiksouably managed to the detriment of the
public Interests, since their construction,
Mill it Is beyond doubt that Mr. Uolladay has
thrown discredit on Orogon railroad inter
est", and has Improved or misimproved
his opportunities to control our politics and
establish sundry monopolies. All the peo
plu ask Is that tlio?o great public enterprise!
hhall be LoiH'wtlj' coustructed and fiirly
managed. We liopo their management will
never again bo disgiaced by an attempt to
manipulate legislation and cjntrol partUuu
politics.
Another matter of grrat public Interest ro
tates to tho lino Of ocean fcteamers between
Oiegon A California, tho ownership of which
is to be tr.tnsfuned by this same arrange
incut. Tills tr.ilo Is Imii-irtuiuand deserves
to be carried on in staunch sels. Tho prs
sa'jioii of tho railroad almost inskes the
ownnshlpor tho steamer line a monopoly,
ant! renders fair competition diflliMilt. Pub
lic sentimont Is now aroused on the subject
of uusoaworthy ships, and tho tlmo has
come when freight and travel will f-cek

About Hail Facilities.

facilities la the shape of a sooil-duz'y mail.
It has been commenced, and we understand
Is temporarily discontinued until the newly
appointed routu agents can bo properly
sworn iiraud givo bonds. Now it strikes us
that the discontinuance might as well be
permanent, not because we gtudge- the ac
commodation thus rendered to the towns
irom Albany to Portland, for we are our
selves thereby as much accommodated ts
others, and should poruonully inuchlikoto
have the arrangement continue aud b per

In tlio lir.it place the postal department does

The "Big Fleece " of California and oth
er Eig Flsecss.
About sixteen mouths ago the sheep-breed-lug
world of Amend was awakened lo a
considerable degree of Interest by an an
rounc3mcnt of tho shearing of p.n extraordi
narily heavy fleece from a French Merino
ram, tho property of Mrs. Itnbort Blacow of
California. The flcco was of f,uoh n weight
es to stagger tho believing powers of many
breoJors on the Allan ic lde, cotne of whom
openly expressed their incredulity in tho
columns of the National Live Stock Journal.
ilho Editor of that ppucr, with a praisewor
thy desire to have his readers correctly In
formed, proenred the fleece, and submitted
It to the Illinois Wool Grower's Association.
The fleece weighed, when given Into the
hands of a Committee of that Association
no lbs., but nt sneering bad weighed 51K lbs.,
and was cliltncd to be the growths of about
sixteen months. The folio ving is tho report
ol the committee, and the Live Stock Jour
nal's remarks thereon, together with other
to-ited fleeces, which are submitted to Interest
ed readers with only this remark. It is to
be be regretlod that when so much pslns is
taken in the interost ol truth that all the cir
cumstances aro not gien with precision,
for iu3t,'nce, in this case, why could not tho
exact llvo weight of Mrs. Macon 'n sheep
beou given and tho exact tlmo tlio fleece's
growth and that of tlio others in tho tabU",
nud then tho value of the cleansed wool as
set by a disinterested committeo ot manulac-
Hirers? J. Mi.nio.
YourcunmUte appointed to clnnuse and
report upon tlin Califnrni i fleece, beg to re
port: The we'gat of Heeco uetoro scouring
was BOlpnunds. It was put turougn two
selves. The first reduced weight to 13t
pounds. It was not clean. Wo ordered tlio
second, end it is now well scoured. Tlio
present weight is just 12 pound;. .vet the
committeo believe there nre two pounds of
burs in it now. The appearanco of tho wool
is much coarser than before scouring, and is
very uneven not in sny way a desirable
wool In rai'e. Wo do not recommend anv
flock-master to bit id Irom such stock, let
his flock liu line or coarse. The wool, wben
free of burs, not worth over 55 eentsa pound
In a clean state, while a pood Merino wool
would bo worth S." cents. The cost, of keep
is according to weight of carcass. The ram
that cut this tlspce Is very large for a French
ram supposed by thoso who have seen him
to wt.ighner300'pouuds. His flpvco, when
clean, sat ton pounds, at 55 cents per pound
is worth ?5 50. An American Moriuo ram's
fleece, sooured S pounds, atthe sunw place
carcass IbG pounds. Thi, at c5'0&ntti per lb
isguso lilyiug aprerenci lo tlio latter ot
$1.30 iu'tlaece alone. Yet there is moredif-
lereuce iu too keepin-r, and that W an object
hero, but not so union in California
(Signed) DANiiUi.KuLiaJY, Chairman.
Mr. Kelley stated. .when submitting (lie re
port, that ho had been unnbloiogot together
tho committee appointed by the Association
and be' u ooninsdltut tocl! in.tho assistance
of Jonathan TcllV, of Du Pago enmity, Ills.,
who Jiarl wltn Himself slgnoj ine report.
It is to be regretted tbtir.. the committee
wen. not mors careful iu guiiffitig against a
shov of the parl'ality that Illinois breeders
nro Kuown in emertnin m uyor oi ttio Amer
lenu or Improved Spunish Merino over hK
Krfiieh cousin. While we-havo uo doubt tho
coruinitten was perfectly horest In Its con
clusions, it wm una mat uie wording ot tuo
report will prove a bid foi utltielsm thatsonio
friend of tho Vi-etrch Merino is suro to nccej t.
From h pietly rarotnl eHiiiiiiiitlon of t!-ji
Srin'O boforoKcbiiring, wk aror.t opinion that
the comimttsii plces the v.ight of burs too
high, one pound being probably on extreme
estimate.
We hr.v re quosted samples of th.e flefleo
before aud alter securing both lioai t!i
binrics-t and cleanest porlions and when
theso are rocaived we. may rtforto thosuject
again.
It is proper to stmo that vcbon the fleece
was received by us it weighed 51- pounds
as reported, nud the difference betweon that
weight and the weight reported by the com
mitteo before scouring (50 lbs ) is duo to the
removal of samples; about eleven ounces of
the M'ry best wool having been taken out by
oursolves before surrendering ilia Ueoce to
Ihe committee, and othor sumples were is
moved previously.
The shrinkage shown bj tho report ol the
couunitleo is V(i pir cent, of tho gross
weigh'; und in thU connection it may nut be
uninlere''ng (o reptoduro fiom tho last
Ns'io, tlio fobowltjg leport of tho lcsnlts of
