C0U1MTY OFFICIAL PAPER.
DALLAS, SATURDAY, OCT. 29.
The Cause otuTec: peraiicc.
Bills have been introduced into the
Legislature now in Session to regulate
the sale of spirituous liquors, which, if
passed, would have had a tendency to
prohibit the sale and uso of that poison-
ous liquid-to a great extent;, but the
could not pass and become a law; and
why ? because men elected as our pub-1
lib servants fear they may incur the
displeasure of a certain class of indi-
aiduals in society who deal in, and
freely use tho poison. Now, in our
judgment, this is a great mistake.
Thousands of men, who possess good
hearts, and who desire to do right, and
bo useful In society, arc entirely over-
come by their uncontrolled appetite for
, . I
liqour : and while they are cognizant of
the fact that they are destroying their
. - - . . . . . . i
usefulness, and are in the path which
leads directly to destruction, yet they
intend "to reform, and wish in their
Tery hearts that thi community in
which they live would devise some
means whereby the destroyer could be
placed beyond their reach. And some
men seem to be perfectly iufatuated
with the idea of dealing in spirituous
liquors : and many men who do not use
U frt atMXi nnA vorv Cove wrlir mnt-n nn I
ph e wa j w v wuv mju e i
use of it at all ; yet many of tho.e men
would rejoice if the Legislature would
pass a law totally prohibiting the sale
of tbe article, for then they would
engage in other business.
Then there is another class of men
Ivho know that the general sale and uc
of it nave become a gTeat evil, aud are
fist poisoning the minds and budies of
both mclr and women, but they deiie
to ''traffic it for gain; and they arue
well, buy from false premise?, thnt soct
ety has no rtght to prescribe what a man
shall eat or drink, an 1 at the same
time laugh at the timidity of the law
maker. -
-The fact is, a large majority of the
people of this, country, including the
e t t A .1 :
and are victims of, this deadly poison,
acknowledge that the vending of liquors.
as carried on at the present time, is of
no benefit to society generally, but is
productive of great evil; that it is the
; direct cause of more than one half of
: the crime committed in our communi
ties; that it fills our jails, penitentiaries,
insane asylums and poor, houses with
miserable inmates; that it makes bad
men, bad women, bad children, and
poverty-stricken families; and that it
takes from the pockets of the tajc payers
annually a large sum of money to pay
thc expenses of running our Criminal
Courts, in order to punish men tor the
crimes they commit while under the
, " wv v . - i
And, yet society permits it; and how
long will they sutter this great and
growing evil, when it- is well known
ffiat tVto vtrv mnn idTia nro cl'iuna tn
. - . . . . .
iuui, wuuucvui nicy Bits ;uiiiniicu uy
the Courts for any crime they commit
tinder its influence, curse the commu-
nity for allowing its use, and really and
actually charge society with the cause
of the aU, whatever it may be. VV e arc
satisfied, then, if our legislators would
take a correct yiew of the matter, they Jacre8 for -a long time; for there is just
would come up boldly to the mark, and
Jut stop to this acknowledged evil, as
wo uvo w iiiauy vfuici ciio ui iuiuuj
importance ; afid that in doing so, they
would receive the blessings of all pood
men and women in socit ty, including a
large portion of the very class who are
dealing with, and are being destroyed
this monster. And to pay that a
man s natural right to eat ana arm k
. ' i l
whatever he pleases cannot be interfered
"nrfth, for the general good of society, U
to say that you cannot interfere with
his natural rights at all; and this prin-
ciple would at once disorganize society,
ana man wouia relapse into paroarism.
But some men, admitting that a major
ity in a, community ought to possess
the powerAto control and regulate the
conduct of men, . meet us with the
argument, that the majority in society
at the present day does not desire to
? prohibit tho sale and use of spirituous
liquors We answer, give us a laU
if we are mistaken, then we will yield
L the point. Let a law be passed that will
require the consent of every inhabitant
ia tho precinct, city or ward, as the case
may be, over the age of eighteen years,
both men and women, to vend epiritu
ous liquors therein, and then, if they
consent by petition, Jet it be soldj if
thcy do not, then will the evil end; if
this cannot be done, then we demand
that none but puro liquors shall be sold,
and that the same penalty shall be
attached to the act of selling poisoned
liquors, as for selling poisoned or dis-
eased meats. Most certainly these de-
mands are reasonable ; but we believe
that tho time has come when the people
of this country are fully satisfied that
the vending of spirituous liquors is an
evil of such magnitude, that it ought
l.now to be stopped.
' L
Separate Supreme Court.
This oucstion has "been discussed
considerably lately, both in and out of
the Legislature. The Oreqonion seems
to think that tho Legislature has no J
" i .
power to create a separate Supreme
Court at this time, because the late
census shows a population of only
ninety-oue thousand. Now we are fully
satisfied that the late census does not
8h0w the population large enough by
Ut least one fourth. In the second
place, the Constitution of Oregon is
silent in relation to the mode of asccr-
taining the exact population of the
State, and no partrcular officer or per
son is made or constituted a judge;
hilt the Lpisl:l tllTP. TtOSSCSSin? the I
- - - -fp g CJ 141
highest power of the State, is the sole
judge of the whole matter. And in tihe
third place, it would not he considered
a very violent presumption to calculate
that at the next regular election, there
would bo the number mentioned in the
Constitution. ! Aud again, the language
of the Constitution on that subject is J
not such as to warrant the conclusions
of the Oregoiuon. That instrument
docs not forbid the passage of an Act
i
creating a separate Supremo Court
until tho State shall have 200,000
inhabitants, only by implication. The J
language is: 41 when the inhabitants of I
the State shall amount to 200,000,
the Legislature may provide." Ntw the I
question is, could not, and would not,!
the language be construed as directory
only. Section 10 of Article 7 of the
Constitution etauds alone on that sub
ject; and we arc satisnea, irom me
reading of that section, that the power J
rests with the Legislature alone, and
that whenever they see fit to take the
responsibility to provide for a separate
Supreme Court, their act would- be
constitutional,
Then thore is but one other consider-
atj0D) ana that is, the question of expe
diency. The question of power being
first settled, the question of policy only
remains. Aud will it be contended
that the policy would be bad ? Is there
a legal. man in Oregon who does not
conUemri the present system ? Arc
itinnts satisfied with the present
arrangemcntf uy no means; ana ine
pcopie generally are dissatisfied with it,
ye are aware that Borne men object
on amount of expense, but that objec

tney can gjve 200,000 to a company

iarge am0Unts to assist others to amass
fortUncs. And then we have plenty of
mcan, to pay the Court heavy salaiies,
.because we can draw on the 500,000

to tuild locks or railroads, which shall

pany,when completed, that builds them,

provements
We hold it would be constitutional
and right for the Legislature now to
make provision for a Separate Supreme
Court, and hat they would fail to do
wnat tn0 people demand if they ne-
giected it.

Let Them Have It
; A portion of the inhabitants of the
City of Portland are urging the Legis
lature to so amend their City Charter
as to allow them the privilege of do-
nating to Mr. Holladay, or some other
man the sum of $300,000, or some
other sum ; they don't seem to be. par-
particular as to the amount, so that
they ean havetthe privilege of giving
something to somebody in a legal way.
Now on account of their great anxiety
to be liberal, we say let them have it;
and more especially if it will hasten
tho time when we on the west side
are to have a railroad; for wo have
been looking for tho appearance of the
iron horse until our eyes have grown
dim, aud we are weaned of waiting
For the sake of peace, and for the
purpose of getting rid of the blood
suckers, let the Bill pass- and then the

sorry to have it terminate at any other
point in tho world, because Portland
would be injured thereby; and that

any importance, of course they ought
to have the terminus, upon the pnn
ciplo That unto everyone which hath
shall be given, aud from him that hath
not, even that he hath shall be taken
away from him." Surely no man ought
to be uukind enough to oppose the tcr
ruination of any railroad in Oregon at
that delectable city. Portland has no
rival but McMinnville. We think Mr.
(lolladuv's demands are vacry modcr-
ate indead. We had predicted some
time since that it would be $3')0,000
If that gentleman will but aet apart
enough of his looie change to build a
railroad from some point or marsh, ter
mioating at Dalhs, we will promise
that an equal amount shall be raised
herein tweaty-four hours.
, The Weekly Examiner of San Fran-
cisco says, that the democratic prty
j9 proud of its ..record," rebellion aud
au j that it deltghia in the name rebel.
because it claims that Washington,
Patrick Henry and John Adams were
rebek, and is constantly harping con-
cerning-the rights of the State, and de
clares that all Hepubficans, or members
of the party in power are Craitors. Now
the reasoning proves just this, that it is
right for any citizen of the United
States to be a rebel, because Washing-
ton anj hig compeers rebelled against
the mothcr count r on account of op
prcssion ; that becau;e it was right for
Washington to resist the home Gov
ernment, therefore it is right for us to
resist the Washington Government ;
and consequently m man can be a good
citizen, good Democrat or patriot, unless
ho opposes the Ooverument which pro-
ho opposes the Government which pro
tects him ; and, consequently, in our
late war, all who fought for the South'
ern Confederacy, wcro patriots, liko
Washington, and all who defended the
old Government were Tories. This
accounts for tho action of the late
Legislature, in reference to Gen. Sher
man, and the great cry lately in the
Democratic Press about tho patriotism
of Gen. Dob E. Lee. And how, as to the
doctrine of. States' right, we venture
the assertion that if the editor of the
Examiner will define his position on
that subject, he will prove himself to
be a confirmed Secessionist. Come,
Mr. Examiner t wo have had enough of
your generalities; tell us what the
Eights of the State are.

, The Herald seems to be very much
alarmed about what it calls the Holla
day swindle. We see no particular
cause for alarm ; the Herald man, nor
any one olse, will not be compelled to
contribute to Mr. Holladay unless they
desire. If the Bill should pass, it will
not bo worth the paper on which it is
written. And we think, Mr Herald,
that you ought not to complain at the
amount demanded by Mr. Holladay,
providing he will take that, and agree to
make no other demands ; and then, you
know, the great benefits of Mr. Holla
day's being in Oregon. A treat many
people are coming here on account of
his being here, and the especial benefit
results to Portland, because ho is lo
cated there. Why, Mr. Herald! we at
Dallas would give him a thousand if he
would come and take dinner with us,
and then permit us to publish it to the
world.
