LIOHT WAKTED.
We were struck forcibly with a paragraph
we tako this week from the Springfield
(Mass.) Republican, relating to a now railroad
scheme, that was pronounced a fraud, arid
described in such terms that it reminded us
of tho announcement mado by tho Now York
Times, which wo also publish, in this Isstio,
of tho coming Oregon Pacific railway.
Now we personally havo an Interest that will
bo very much enhanced if tho promises of
Col. Hogg aro carried out. Wo havo, In
common with tho people of tho Willametto
valley, a great desiro to see tho Ynqulna
railroad built and that harlior mado uso of for
all tho commerce it can command. In fact
we claim to bo anxious for tho success of all
that is claimed or desired for Yaqulna Hay or
tho Oregon Pacific railway, hut it is not for
tho best good of our Stato that a scheme
shall bo started as described in tho matter wo
quote elsewhere, for Its failure must react on
tho good uaino and commercial Integrity of
Oregon, and do us treat damage. Wo aro
just growing out of tho reputation and disaster
entailed on us by tho wild-cat railroad
schemo of Halladay, and any inoro such dis
honest and reckless operations will have tho
samo effect, for wo claim that if Hulladay had
left tho field open for legitimate cntcrpriso
tho country would havo been better oil' to
day. Wind assertions, windy promises ami wiso
looks aio not going to build a inilo of railroad.
If Col. Hogg's company, that ho tells of, will
plank down cash as Villard's corporation did,
nml go to work as thoy did, that wilt bo busi
ness) or of tho Orcgonian Hailroad Company
has, that will speak for itself, and wohopo
tho tidal wavo of prosperity is not hich
enough to float any schemes that will not
provo to bo substantial and reliable. It re
mains for this new corporation to repel tho
insinuations mat) in various ways concerning
it, and our solo object is to warn honest peo
plo not to bo led into any schemes based oil
this cntcrpriso until they sco that it has bot
tom. Wo owo no subserviency to any corpo
ration In the world, and are not afraid to talk
plainly about this 0110 that Is not yet fully
Iwrn. ' If It is a sound concern wo nro heartily

In making the new law regulating fees and

did well enough to omit from its operation the
counties where fee are scarce enough to pay
living wages to theso olhVers, but why was
this mutter neglected with regard to Multno
mah county, which is tho richest paying in
tho whole State, and where it is Imperatively
neccssaiy-if It is anyw heroto Uko this

tho Legislature met tho Sheriff here laughed
at tho idea ot his fees being cut down, and
