OREGO.Y CUT, OBEGOX, DEC. 13, 1572.
Shall we Hare a Postal Telegraph t
One year ago the Post Master
General, in liis Annual Ileport,
recommended the establishment of
a Postal Telegraph system, to be
controlled by the Government.
This recommendation, in the shape
.of a bill, drawn up by the Post
Master General himself, was placed
before Congress, but that body,
after wasting much valuable time
in Jiscnssinjj it, for some reason
failed to pass the measure. And
now comes the President in Ids
late message, and therein advises
Congress to establish this Postal
Telegraph system. The Post
Master General also renews his
former recommendations on the
subject. We may therefore an
ticipate another vigorous fight on
the subject in Congress this winter.
The previous discussion of the
subject devclopes the fact that it
has many implacable opponents as
well as many ardent advocates.
For ourselves we are opposed to a
Postal Telegraph system conj
trolled by the government, on
economical and political grounds.
We do not think the government
the proper party to invest in such
enterprises. We do not believe, as
a governmental investment, it
would pay. We believe pri
vate enterprise and private capital
the proper agents to be employed
in such undertakings. It is a well
known fact that individuals, with
their own capital embarked, can
manage sucli enterprises more
economically, freer from imposition
and fraud on the part of employees,
and with greater profit to them
selves, than any Government could
possibly manage them. If individ
uals cannot make railroading and
telegraphing pay, the Government
bad better not try it. We under
stand that the warmest advocates
of, and the most persistent lobby
ists for the measure are the owners
and stockholders of the various tele
graph lines throughout the coun
try. They want to tell out. They
are doubtless losing monev, and
want the Government to take a
bad bargain off their hands.
Let the Government take hold of
tins matter and it would be buti
very short time until we would
have an increase in our already
enormous rate of taxation. The
revenue of the concern would never
equal the expense; while the tax
payers would annually be called
upon to supply the ever increasing
deficit. It is a well known fact
that the expense of the Post Ofliee
Department is greater than the in
come. This year the deficit is over
five millions ; which must be sup
plied by the toiling laborers of our
country. This Postal Telegraph
arrangement would have to be sup
ported in the same manner.
Hut we are opposed to the es
tablishment of a Postal Telegraph
on different and higher grounds.
We are unalterably opposed to it
'It
because of the political principle
involved therein. We believe it
but another step in the vast scheme
of centralization concocted by the
leade'rs of the'Kepublican party.
It is but another agent which they
wish" to3 place under their control
for the purpose of further perpetu
ating themselves in power. Wo all
know what a tremendous inlluence
the Post Of lieu Department of the
Government wielded during ""the
late political struggle. We verv
vividly remember foi whose elec
tion the fifty thousand postmasters
of the United States worked during
the last canvass,and we mournf ul! v
realize the completeness of the job
performed by them. We know also
that their work was not confined
to personal exertions in behalf of
their favorite, but we know
that they submitted, at the risk of
their position, to enormous assess
ments levied to reelect Grant.
If this Postal Telegraph scheme
is established, behold another
powerful adjunct to the Post Ollice
Department for the purpose of eon
tinning the Pepublican party in
power. These are some of the rea
sons that occur to us at present,
why we are not in favor of this lat
est " stock jobbing scheme " of
Grant's.

A Subject that Should be Agitated A
Government Armory.
The Herald of tbe 7th inst. containes th
following suppositions: The growing
importance of the Pacific States makes it
necessary that the Federal Government
Should turn more of its attention in this
diroc'ion than it Las hitherto done. Among
other establishments needed on this coast
is a suitable place for the manufacture of
fire-arms and all the enginery needed lor
the purpose of defense in cane of foreign
aggression, and lor such protection as our
already great and growing commerce de
mand. Fortunately we have just the
place, with all the necessary local advan
tages, near this cnv. The falls of the
Willamette, at Oregon City, afford one. of
the finest water powers to be found in any
part of the world. with a never failing sup
ply of w ater to propei not only all machin
ery that the Government might want for
the purpose indicated, hut an iucalculable
amount besides. Harper's Ferry, in Vir
ginia. where the Government has for many
years bad an establishment for the manu
fac'nre of arms. is not the equal as regards
natural advantages, of the falls of I he
Willamette, for all the purposes which
would subserve the wants of the Govern
ment. Ueside.s the natural fall and-abun-dant
supply of water, our mild Winieis
are such that the frost would never inter
fere with the motive power or the action
of machinery. The proximity of Oregon
Ciry to the ocean, and the facility with
which it may be approached by sea oing
vessels are also points of much import
ance. All the material of war which
might be manufactured at that locality,
could be sent ocean wise, if required by
wa'er transportation, at all the seasons of
the year And in case of foreign war.
Oregon City is so situated inland as not
to be vulnerable lo attacks from the
ocean.
'llight at hand, aho, is an abundance of
the raw mitt-rial which enters into the
manufacture of fiie-atuis and other war
implements. Iron ore of superior quality
and of itiexaustlcss quantity is found bu
a short distance Ironi the Falls, and stone
coal is also accessible. Aud finally, lo
crown all. a rich and fertile soil, and an
industrious population, produce all the
necessaries of life, close at hand to supply
any amount of force which the Govern
ment might employ in such an enterprise.
Tfi'ese. we lake it. are the principal points
which would be taken into consideration.
,hould the ( iovcriiment attempt to estab
lish an armory on the Pacific coast. We
do not believe there is another locality on
the coast that combines so many advan
tages for the purpose indicated. It is evi
dent to our mind. also, that the lime i.--near
at hand when it will be necessary tor
tile Government lo establish an aimory
in this section of the Union. The reasons
which might be adduced to demonstrate
that necessity are vaiious anil multiplied,
but we fchall not Midertuke iheir li'scns
sviou now. Many of ihem are so obvious
that they will occur lo every intelligent
mind when the subject is mentioned. Our
spt cial object is lo awaken attention to
the subject, and to induce some of our
active business men to commence the
proper movement with a view to secure
lhe end propped. We are persuaded
that a Government armory for the manu
facture of arms will be. impel iously de
manded on this coast, in lhe promt s of a
few more years, and those who take the
initiative, having the requisite advantages,
will Ue likely to secure the piize."

A correspondent of the Cincinnati Eii
qnher interrogates that paper on a point.
the answer to which deserve mole than
ordinary attention :

In Indiana it is one lo every lour and a
