County Roads.
n Good roaJs are a crowning glory ;
orumuuitr. It has been re
marked by a distinguished traveler
- that the character and condition of
the roads in any neighborhood is a
3 true index to the character of the
people. There is much truth in the
utterance, though if applied to our
State, the status of the people -would
be established much too low, owing
to our cosmopolitanism. We have
come into being as a State by the set
tlement of individuals from every
known region of civilization, and as
a natural result, hold all shades of
opinion upon all subjects. Hence
- we have rarely agreed upon the ne
cessity of good roads, and to-day
we are virtually without roads, save
during the Summer time, when the
whole surface of the country may be
driven over. Linn county should be
divided at right angles by turnpike
roads, every few miles, from one ex
treme to the other. There should be
at least ten graveled highways from
the foothills, on the eastern side of
the county, running west, to the
"Willamette river, and nearly as
many crossing the county at right
O angles thereto. Each of these roads
should be well thrown up, and thor
oughly drained on either side, with
sufficient gravel to admit of the pas
sage of heavy teams in all kinds of
weather. With such a system of
roads throughout the valley, the
price of Jands would rise fully one
hundred per pent. Ten per cent, of
the present value of our land ex
pended in the way indicated, would
double that value.
There are gravel beds accessible,
and the work should be commenced
at once. The County Commission
ers should designate the various
roads, and the road work should be
applied in such a, manner as to finish
Up a division at a time, until the
whole is complete. Farmers can af
ford to increase, to a large extent,
their road tax. and business men in
Albany and other places, can well af
ford to donate lire percent, of their
income, for the accomplishment of
this work. But little good results
from the way that road work is usual
ly done, while with a suitable per
son for Supervisor, and the proper
laying out of the work, the desired
consummation would be but the
work of a few years. The history of
all good roads throughout the Union
prove the correctness of the state
ments above made in regard to the
increased value of the real estate ad
jacent thereto.
There is nothing so3 attractive to
the better class of emigrants as roads
free from mud, and always ready for
use. Ten acres of land on a good
turnpike road, is better than a hun
dred acres off where there is no out
let. The day is rapidly approaching
when the present system of raising
only those products that can be ship
ped during the dry season, will give
way to a more healthy condition of
diversified husbandry. As the nec
essary forerunner ol this condition,
we must have good roads. Granger.
The Alaska King.
A Washington dispatch says that
a bill to provide for the extension of
the United States system of land
surveys over the Territory of Alaska
has beeen framed, but has been
nipped in the bud by opposition
from the Interior Department. Last
Winter a bill for the sale of coal
lands was passed, and provision was
cinade so that tracts of unsurveyed
land could be held by performing
a certain amo:mt of work and con
tinuing the same until the surveys
are made, when the holder would
have the preferred right of entry to
the land. A number of speculators
whoso headijuarterse are in San
Francisco, succeeded in getting the
coal-fields of Alaska included within
the provisions of the act. They have
formed companies and dispatched
agents to take possession of large
tracts of the most valuable coal lands
in the Territory, he existence of
which is only known to a few men,
and now, in order to perfect their
grabs, they expect Congress to pass
a bill to extend the surveys over
them. Commissioner Drummond has
addressed a letter to Senator Mitch
ell iu opposition to the scheme. And
there are rumors, also, of a combina
tion tf control and monopolize the
resources of that Territory, but there
is a disposition among members of
Congress to investigate them all. A
movement will be m ule toward hav
O iur a Commission appointed to ex
amine the whole subject and at the
same time to report upon the manner
in which the Alaska Seal Fur Com
pany is fulfilling its contract with
the Government.
Parson Brownlow of the United
States Senate, is a tarl, dark liai red
man, pale, even to llis lips, with no
color of life in any part of his bodv
save his restless eves, that crrow
bright at rare intervals when some
ringingirg war cry on one side or the
other of the chamber, kindles the tire
that disease has almost smothered.
He never speaks, nor moves, nor
calls a page, nor smiles, nor talks to
his neighbor. Attendants carry him
to his seat at twelve, and back to his
solitary home at 5. There he sits
during the long hours, silent and
ghostlike, quivering, trembling and
twiching perpetually with a terrible
palsy. Such to-day is Parson Brown
low, of Tennessee.

Tbocblesome Questions. A
thoughtful correspondent suggests
the following inquiries relative to
tho Siamese Twins, Is he dead or
are they dead? "Was it one body or
two, one duality or two individuali
ties, and. consequently, one or two
souls? "Was Chang or E:ig respec
tively a bigamist? Was Mrs. Chang
or Mrs. Eng respectively a bigamist?
"Were Chang and Eng the fathers and
uncles of their own children ? These
are some of the things which "no
fellow can find out."
A portly gentleman crowded him
self into a seat in a horse-car, next to
a young man who remarked: "You
would'ni, be so anxious to take that
seat if you knew that I had jnst got
ten up over the small-pox !' "That's
nothing," was tho reply, "thtsis the
first time I've been out since having
it myself." The vonng man started
for the front platform.
o
Au Immense Amount of Corruption.
It is beyond question that there is
an immence amount of corruption in
the administration of the municipal
affairs of Washington City. The
New York Sun, making due allow
ance for its animus, has proved that
conclusively. Shepherd, the present
Governor, is made to appear a veri
table counterpart of Tweed. That
there was a "ring" early formed and
persistently kept up, the Sun now
publishes a letter, written in the
Summer of 1871, to prove. At that
time, as the letter shows, the writer
went North to buy up all the pave
ments suitable to lay down in the
District streets from 'the patentees.
As he' himself phrases it, he "has to
make a small "ring" of seven persons
in order to accomplish results." On
the other hand Shepherd and his
friends are not without defenders.
Their actions have been whitewash
ed by Congress repeatedly ; but to be
whitewashed by Congress is now a
proof of guilt rather than innocence.
Congress never appoints a commit
tee of investigation until the misdo
ing is so flagrant that opinion goads
it on and compels it to act. This
fact, theu, goes for nothing. But
there are respectable papers which,
while admitting the corruption which
exists, see only in a distance, that
lends enchantment to the view, the
Washington of the future, a magnifi
cent city, and the poor tax-payers
are ignored.
Samko's Tax -Receipt. A negro
living in Alabama, having been for
tunate enough to accumulate some
property, desired, as all loyal sub
jects should, to pay tax on the same.
It being a new business to him, he
did not know that there was a prop
er officer to receive the tax, and con
cluded that all that was necessary
was to find a man with a white skin.
So he hailed the first white man he
met with. "Say, boss. I want to pay
my tax. Mus' I gib em to you ?" On
being told that it would be received
by the comprehending white gentle
man, the negro handed him j?"2, and
asked if dat was enough. 'I suppose
that it is,' said the white man. 'Boss,
gim me showin' for dat,' -said the ne
gro. Again the wits of the white man
were at work, and he soon handed
the negro a slip of paper with the
inscription : " As Moses lifted the
serpent out of the wilderness, like
wise have I lifted '25 out of this
d d nigger's pocket.
Not long after this the negro met
the real tax collector. "Done paid
it. boss, and here's de 'ceipt, said the
negro, at the same time f.anding a
piece of paper to the officer. He
read: "As Moses lifted the serpent
out of the wilderness, likewise have
I lifted $2 out of tliio d d nig-
cr's pocket." "Hold on, boss, von
re.id 'urn wrong," said the astonished
d irkey, and he snatched the paper
and carried it to another man, who
began to read, "As Moses lifted
here he was stopped by the negro,
who exclaimed: " Look-a-yar; just
gim me dat paper, I'm gwine to lift
dat white man ont'n his boots, 'fo
God, I is.' With this he left, and uot
being heard from since, it is sup
posed that lie is still looking for the
man to whom lie paid his tax.
Blt Two Great Parties. Sena
tor Tlmrmnn delivered a telling
speech at Columbus, Ohio, timing
the Fall canvass. Of the political
future he said: There can be but two
great parties in a Republic, neither of
which can hold power in perjietuity.
The genius of republican institutions
and sound common sense forbid that.
"NVhea the rulers elevated to power
by a party, misbehave, that party
must give way to its opponents. If
the rulers chosen by the latter in turn
do wrong, the other party will be re
stored to power. This is the true idea
of party responsibility, and the only
really effective mode of reform. In
a free country there will be parties,
for all men never did and never will
think alike. The party in the ascen
dant rules for the time, but it holds
its power on the conditions that it
shall rule honestly and wisely. If
it fail to fulfill these conditions, it
must yield up the reins of govern
ment. This is precisely the state of
the Republican party to-day. "What
ever claims to merit it may have had
in the past, its rulers have ceased to
govern wisely ami well. The people
no longer have confidence in them,
and the time is not far distant, I
think, when the want of confidence
will bear its proper fruit,
