SATURDAY OCTOBER 7, 16.H2 1
4. F. HALLO BAX EilHor
Tho Deadlock.
Four weeks of the session of
the legislature have elapsed with
out the election of a United States j no complaints from ship masters
senator. From present appear- j a,Kut tho pilotage charges. Every -ances
it seems that our Salem so- ones at a11 conversant with the
Ions are not any more disposed to
recognize caucus rule now than
tbey were the second day after
convening, when out of fifty-four
Republicans, thirty-six a two
third majority selected J. H.
Mitchell as thsir candidate. The
Republican majority have present
ed an anomalous attitude all
through the fight. They claim
that they are not bound by a
majority decision; that the
faot of refusing to go into caucus
justifies them in standing out
against tho caucus nominee. This
is analogous to the protest in
other Republican assemblages
..,:- cui. ....: ...,i " .wi :,.
virtual denial of the right of a
legislative party majority to -select
a candidate for party vote. There !
are not wanting defenders for j
their course, but the men who up- j
hold them are so obviously actuated
by personal motives that the
animus is made manifest through
out. In general it may be stated as a
political axiom that a representa
tive should be a representative of
his constituents. Had Dr. Kinney
been elected last June we should
have expected him to vote for a
Democrat right along; so v.ith
John Hobson; Messrs. Reed and
Smith were elected by Republi
can votes and are bound to vote
for a Republican nominee. Tho
Democrats who aio voting for
Mitchell in Salqm are not doing
justice to their constituents who
sent them there. Majorities ride,
and so between parties, so it
should be between members of
the same party. Mitchell received
a caucus majority nomination, and
should be given a full party vote.
We' say this without bias
or prejudice for or against
any nominee or in favor of airy
candidate. We advocate no po
litical cause to the utter exclusion
of. that grand maxim of Rush:
"Nothing is politically right that is
morally wrong," but amid all the
juggling and chicanery that is go
ing on in the state capitol one fact
stands eut: that repiescntntives
should represent their constituents
and should vote in accordance with
their wishes". This morning's dis
patches say that Mr. Smith voted
against Mitchell. It is a well
known fact that nine-tenths of Clat
sop county are in favor of having
Mitchell senator; it was Clatsop
county that gave Mr. Smith his
majority, and if he wishes to rep
resent the men that sent him there
he should vote for their ehoiee.
This is as it appears to us. "We
are either right or wrong. We
care no more for Mitchell than for
. any of the candidates that have
been given the questionable com
pliment of a" transitory vote from
the eighteen, and in saying what
we do we enunciate what is uni
versally recognized as political ac
tion, and voice the sentiment of
this part of the state.
-The Asiatic cholera was at last
accounts epidemic at some of the
ports at Japan, and also at Manila.
Dhe average number of deaths in
Manila, the capital of the Philip
pine islan'ds, has been about 250 a
day. During two weeks of Aug
ust 4,560 persons died in Manila
of cholera. " From that place the
disease traveled rapidly to Japan,
andjiow ;wehear of it on board
of a ship from Bombay, about to
v enter the Suez canal, and among
the pilgrims returning from Mecca.
The scene of the British victory
in Egypt is believed to be on the
site of the ancient cities built for
Pharaoh by the children of Israel.
- About five bushels of wheat
per head is the annual consump
tion ofithe inhabirants-of the Pa
. vcifio coast
The Tilol Bill.
A tj:legi:am received last even
ing says the pilot bill will ccmc up
on Monday. Tis noticeable that j
since the advent of the Pioneer but ; '
'little is said of the "monopoly"' ef:
i the towage business, and the at-!
tempted legislation is all in refer
ence to the pilotage. Thcie ate
facls knows that the pilots well
earn their money, and the propo
sition to cut down their earnings
and then make them pay for the
commission that superintends
them, is manifestly unjust. B:;t,
after all, it will take concurrent
legislation in Washington Terri
tory to render any legislation op
erative in reference to the matter.
Tin: notion that steamships may
be suddenly stopped by a break, as
railroad trains are, seems iiui-ei at
first, but, saws the Now Yoik Sun,
a Boston Yankee ha- found a eon-
annltod mu toiloil it. with :imr.
.cmly perfect success. Ifis in wmi-J
K consists of a pair of shin tors., j
lunged on eithei side ot the vt.-,-1
sol's stern post, so that they will ,
remain closed against the vessel'
until an apparatus, whose eor.ltol
is in the pilot house, opens thorn
and fixes them .tt right angles to
the ship's course. An ordinary
side wheel steamboat was slopped
the other day in Reston haibor by
these fins, as they are called.
Many gentlemen were on board,
and, though the steamer was mak
ing about twelve miles an hour, it
is said, they testify that she did
not go ahead her own length after
the fins were opened before reach
ing a full stop; and then tho engi -ncer,
reversing his engines, moved
her back, the shutters closing
again. As for the shock, it was
much less than that of a railroad
train suddenly stopped by an air
brake. Should this machine be
applicable to large ships with
powerful engines, half the fear of
collisions would be gone. It
would have prevented, for ex
ample, the last collision on the
Ohio, with its great loss of life.
Though it is yet to be seen how
this contrivance would work on
huge ocean-going vessels, with
their great momentum, for many
smaller steamboats its usefulness
seems ah cad v established.
Sixci: the immortal defense that
the ehild was "only a iittie one,"
there has .been nothing quite so
delightful as the explanation
offered of the -most recent theft of
a thousand dollar bond front the.
treasury department to wit, that
it was blank. From the point
of view of the thief it was a seri
ous blunder to take a bond which
had not been signed. But how
uoes mat accident, nein tne ease
of the treasury officials? The
safeguards cf the treasmy aie
supposed to be equal to the keep
ing, out of all thieves. "The deed
and not tlic attempt" confounds
Secretary Foltjer's eateless -ntur
dinales.
Mi:. Peuxei: of the census
bureau says the census report will
eobt $."5,000,000. The work was
begun in 1S79, and will be finish
ed in ISS3, after five years of
solid work. It will be the most
complete work of- the kind ever
done. It ought to be at those
figures. The last English census
only cost S?00a000.
The Prussian government, in
order to check the tide of emigra
tion to America, purposes to re
quire those who intend to leave to
give security that in doing so they
will not violate any contract or ob
gation towards municipal and vil
lage communities, families and em
ployers.
