Laud Subsidies,
Mltjn. disappointment has been ex
pressed by some of our Republican
contemporaries concerning the subsidy
plank in the Republican platform. Our
neighbor of the Qregonian goes so far
as to say that all who are not influenced
by campaign clap-trap, are opposed to
this plank in the platform. lie seems
to lose sight, or is wilfully blind to the
fact that many Republicans, as firai and
reliable as any in the party, have ever
been opposed to the policy of granting
large tracts of the public domain to aid
in public improvements of any kind.
That, while thy are anxious to have
canals, railroads, and other improve:
meats made, yet, they have thought,
and still think, that they should he us
sisted by other aids than land subsidies.
The utility of national subsidies has
been tested and found to be universally
beneficial but in many instances might
Jiave been more so tc the country at
large, if proper checks and balances
had been thrown around them More
especially does this land subsidy ques
tipn cpnie directly home to U3 of Ore
gon, as our State is composed of moun
tains and narrow valleys. The WiU
Jame.$te, the principal valley of the
Stat lying between the Cascades and
Cqast ranges of mountains, is not so
wide but that a railroad grant takes one
ia If the land between the two ranges
of mountains. If we are lo continue a
policy of this kind, when our railroad
grants are all mad? we will find when
too, late that one half of the agricultu
raV'lands of the State arc in the hands
of rail road andther n onopo'.es. It is
useless to say " restrict them in price,"
for how easy it is for a railroad or other
company to apparently transfer their
lands tor the price named in the grant,
and yet really retain them in their own
hans to be disposed of as they find to
be most profitable. The idea advanced
tht had it not been for land subsidies
we should not have seen a railroad in
Oregon for twenty .five years, is simply
nonsense. Other appropriations could
haye been made just as easily, which
woulflhave been of sufficient benefit to
the railroad companies, and doubly
beneficial to the State. Take for ex
ample, the Oregon and California road?
to which a grant was made of twenty
sections, or 12,800 acres to the mile.
Thia at the Government price, one dol
lar and a quarter an acre would amount
to the round sum of sixteen thousand
16,000) dollars to overy mile of road,
lacking only about two thousand (2,
000) dollars of the average co3t of the
road. Then when the land is put at
$2 50 per acre, tho price the company
are allowed to charge, we. have enough
to nearly build two such roads, to say
nothing of the private subsidies which
are received from towns and individuals
outside.
Suppose on the other hand, Govern
xnent should subsidize this same com
pany to the amount of sixteen thous
and (16,000) dollars to the mile, in the
'hape of bonds or other securities, and
and keep the land in reserve for the
actual settler ? Tho country would be
built up a great deal more rapidly, as
the poor man, the laborer, would be
anxious to procure a foothold, and wil
ling to Jabor for its improvement. The
'ailroad company would bo anxious for
immigration, for the more people there
is along the line of the road the greater
the amonut of business done, find the
xnore remunerative the road is. Much
might be said on this side of the ques
tion, to prove to our brethren that this
was not mere campaign clap trap, but a
" lesson taught by experience Bnd obser
vation, and while not anxious to read
!any 000 out of the party, yet, if we were
to lollow the example set by some of our
contemporaries heretofore, we should
be compelled to bid good-bye to some
who are, apparently, at least, leaving
the party on this oue issue.
Still the Isue.
The great poiut still at issue, and
about the only one really of importance
in the present campaign, is tho same
bone of 'contention which has been
quarreled over since the times of Web
ster and Calhoun. The Democrats as
a rarty have always claimed the Gov
ernment to be one of States, and not of
tho people in the aggreg&te. It is uot
to be supposed that they, will in their
next platform, if they should put forth
one at Haiti more, go back on this, the
areat principle of tho partv. On the
other hand, this being their pet prin
ciple, it can be taken for 'granted that
tney will do nothtng which will come
in antagonist to it. It is not our 'in
teotion nt this time to brine forward
any argument upon this question of
State Rights, or, more properly, State
Supremacy. It has been submitted to
the bayonet and decided in favor of the
General Government. It has been
submitted to the Halls of L "'i-V'on,
and there receivod the same verdict. It
has been submitted to the people, and
the verdict sustained. Yet, notwith
standing all this," not only the " out and
out" Democrats still stick to this prin
ciple, but the "liberals" with Greeley
at their head virtually endive the same
thine
In the fourth resolution of the Cin
cinnati platform can be found this lang
uage ; " Local self-government, witl
impartial suffrage, will guard tho righ's
of all citizens n ore securely than any
centralized power." This means plain
ly that the General should be subject
to the State Government. That the
Stat i is supreme, and the General Gov
ernment is but a creature formed by a
partnership between the States, to be
annulled at the will of anv of t'irm. T'
implies that this is a Government o
Independent Republics, instead of an
Independent Republic in and of itself
thorough and efficient in the rassa
and exaction of it laws, and fully able
to sustain itself from invasion from
abroad, as well as suppress any rebel
lious uprisings which may happen with
in its own b rdors.
On the other hand the Republican
party claims this to be an Independent
Nationality, free and independent,
founded upon the love and intelligence
of the people, with no favors to ask of
other corporations within its own bor
ders, receiving its support directly from
the people and bound to work in the
interest of the wholo people. With a
strict watch upon the rights of the people
and a desire to acknowledge them, it
would be contrary to every principle of
justice for those desires to pass unappre
ciated. Will the people of this country
after years of quarreling and fighting'
allow themselves to bo thrown into the
same predicament upon the same issues?
On the contrary, the indications are that
the Republican party will come out of
tie present campaign more victorious
than ever, and show to the world that
when wo do get an administration
which is mindful of tho best interests of
the country and the people, they can
appreciate it, and that tbey still' view
withan eye ot suspicion anything which
tends in the direction of the ground
occupied by the friends of the doctrine
of State Surrcmncy.
The nomination of General Grant, for
the Presidency, in the National Repub
lican Convention, in Philadelphia, wes
made by Hon. S. M. Cullotu of Illinois.
The following is the language used in
making tho nomination :
" On behalf of the great Republican
party of Illinois, and of the Union, in
the name of liberty, loyalty, justice,
law, the interests of economy, good
government, peace, and the equality of
all before tho law, remembering with
gratitude his achievements as- a soldier
in the field, and his statesmanship in
the Presidency, I renominate Ulysses
S. Grant for President of the United
States'
For full five minutes after the Hon.
speaker had resumed his scat, the hall
rang with loud and protracted cheers
for the illustrious nominee.
Horace Greeley says he has learned
that principles are inconvenient and
he who hopes to succeed must wear
them loosely.
PniCE of luoN. The detnaud jrbr
any article is sure to be checked when
it is, from an extra demand or from
any cause, run up to an extraordinary
price. From a n Eastern exchange, we
learn that the recent riso in England
I
has been caused by a legitimate de
mand fro n Germany, Frauco and! the
United Sf;;tes. The demand was so
great, while tho advance was going on
at the samo time in the price of boab
aud the numerous strik s of workmen
both in the iron and
cc
al
mines,
who
were demanding ten hours exorbitant
pay for eight hours labor. These ciluses
combined have run iron up to its pres
ent high pi ice, and have to considerable
extent checked its use, as brick and
stoce will be ued more extensively'
f
while the present high prices continue
On the other hand, these demands and
p .nsiqt'.ent high prices, will stimulate
to greater exertions on the part of man
ufacturers, until these markets which
" j
have hitherto been but poorly supplied
will be overstocked and prices vrhich
are always regulated by the relation of
supply and demand, will fall to the old
prices and pel haps lower.
New Postal Law. Among the
measures passed by the last Congress is
t i n- w pos'ago law. 'lhe following is
the text of the law aud all we have been
able no far to obtain;
" The most important is the author
ization of ouo cent postal cards for cor
respondence or for printed circulars,
similar to those which were introduced
into Great Britain nearly two years a;o,
aud ;ire now in uso in nearly all Euro
pean countries. The Houe provided
in the bill fir cards with a paper flap
to covt atid conceal the writing:. The
Senate changed this to an open j card.
In Conference .Committee the sljle of
tho card wax l ft to the discretion jnf the
I'o!fnnster General, who prefers the
open card, and will order that kind only
to be manufactured. The face Of the
card will bear a one-cent stamji, and
will be provided with lines ft.r the a i
dres, and the back will be ruled rW the
letter. Th? price on the card and
stamp will be only one cent, ft will
probably be three or four weeks 1 efore
they will be ready for gale, as the! l ite-
for printing have jet to be prepared.
The post ago on circulars, newspapers,
and other transient printed matter.
which, under the old law, was J! cents
for every four ounces or !, is now 1
cent for every two ounces or less
Small circulars which formerly cost
2 cents to mail, can now be jsent for 1
cent, an important reduction to Limine
men who ue the mails largtdy o ad
vertise their businej.. The change
now in force, the law being immediate
in its effect.
Abuse of Gkef.i.f.v. One hf our
Democratic contemporaries says that
the Democracy cann t be beatenjby tho
abuse of Greeley, indulged in by the
Grantites." How about the abuso of
Greeley in bilge 1 in by the New Yufc
World, " Brick" Pomcroy's Democrat'
and a host of other staunch Democratic
journals? Will they have a tendency
to defeat him? Certainly, they will not
help to cle t him. ,
Wmmmmmmtmmmmmmmmmmmmmamm
The prospects, so far as they can bo
judged by the tenor of the press jef the
country, are now favorable for a straight
nomination by the Raltimorc Conven
tion, and that the Democracy will de
pend upon a diversion in favor of Gree
ley, from the Republican ranks, for
their success. A vain hope, and one
doomed to disappointment.
From the report of the New York
Custom House Investigating Commit
tee, it will be seen that the President
has been completely exonerated from
all censure, and tho Committee jfurther
state that they see uo abuses rowing
out of the general order business.
