The Salem Situation.
The present session of the Ore
gon legislature ends to-morrow
night. Its record is an anomalous
one. Ninety members elected to
represent a constituency of 200,
000 people go to the state capital,
and after reigning forty days and
forty nights disband and go home,
their chief merit being what they
didn't do in the matter of legisla
tion, aud their chief disgrace being
what they didn't do in the matter
of selection. Yesterday's dis
patches show that the thirty-fifth
ballot varied but little from the
first, as far as Mitchell's strength
is concerned. On the first ballot
he got 30; yesterday he got 37;
just that man' days of iluctuation
from 35 to 12. It is a singular
commentary on our effort at self
government that influences un
Iooke.d for at the outset can so
control and retard legislative effort
which is supposably toward good.
It is almost certain now that 30
will stand firm for Mitchell during
the remaining hours of the session,
that the other IS Republicans will
bestow the doubtful compliments
of their votes on the man who
takes their passing fancy, and that
the Democrats who 'have the
claim of consistency will vote
for Shattuck; thus causing an ad
journment of the legislature with
out an election.
Then comes the question, can
the governor appoint? It is not
ikely. In the Event of a lailure
by the legislature to elect, the con
stitution does not empower the
governor to usurp legislative func
tions by doing its work. Tis prob
able, however, thai (iov. Moody
will appoint a man, and leave the
question of his admission to the
United States senate at its next
session. The next question "s, who
will it be? Wc are not sufficiently
posted to say positively, probably
no one in the st-ite is, but we think
it will be Uenry Failing.
A Frexcii journal, the Gaulois,
displays in its editorial columns a
remarkable knowledge of Ameri
can affairs. It gets matters dread
fully, mixed. For instance, we are
indebted to its enterprise for the
information that the Arthurists,
who evidently foim an important
political pairy, regard the late
Mr. Guiteau as a victim, and are
so covetous of iclics that when his
skeleton was taken to the umsem
a few days ago they mobbed the
vehicle, broke the coffin open and
carried away in triumph one hand
and various other portions of the
"preparation." These relics are
now, it seems, being sold for their
weight in gold to stalwart Arthur
ists. It was possibly owing to a
dispute concerning the genuine
ness of one of these mementoes
that the deadly duel of which our
Parisian contemporary has received
exclusive information took place
recently between that favorite son
of New York, Colonel .lames Car
cock, and the ciiief of that pewer
ful tribe of Indians, the Chatta
was, whose hunting grounds lie on
either bank of the Hudson river
a duel which proved fatal to both
combatants.
The California railroad syndi
cate of Stanford, Crocker, Hunt
incfton and Tlopkins, eighteen
years ago, represented an aggre
gate capital ot about 265,000.
They are now listed as follews:
Stanford, $80,000,000; Crocker,
&10,000,000; Huntington, 50,
000,000, and the Hopkins estate,
30,000,000.
The fact that this is the one
huudred-and-first nnnversarv of
'CornwalHs' surrpnrler doesn't seem
to awaken any extraordinary en
thusiasm on the part of those who
are always ready to celebrate.
EuROrE.vx telegrams indicate
that Gladstone will soon retire
from public life.
Mexican Railroads.
There arc two great systems
of railway rapidly penetrating
Mexico from the United States,
one of these, the Mexican Central,
progressing southward from El
Paso, in New Mexico, toward the
city of Mexico, 1,200 miles dis
tant and of which 200 miles to
Chihuahua have thus been com
pleted; the other, the Mexican
National Railway, progressing
southwest from Corpus Christi, in
Texas, toward the city of Mexico,
990 miles distant, and of which
333 miles of the main line from
Corpus Christi to Monterey have
been completed. From the city
of Mexico northward,also,there are
102 rrfiles of the Mexican National
completed, leaving 450 miles of
the main line to be completed to
make the connection between the
railway system of Texas and city
of Mexico.
Tin: next time his boat inn
aground and he has leisure for
reflection, President Arthur should
wrap the drapery of his special
flajr about him and sit down to
profitable musings over the course
of American history. .FohnTyler suc
ceeded to the presidency through
the death of Harrison, set about
building up his own little parly,
and vanished into nothingness at
the end of his term. Millaid Fill
more succeeded to the presidency
through the death of Zachary Tay
lor, failed to get a rcnomina
tion from his own party, took
that of his own little party,
and vanished. Andrew Johnson
succeeded to the presidency through
the death of Lincoln, concocted
his "policy," faiiled of a re-nomination
by Republicans or Democrats,
and vanished. Chester Allan
Arthur has succeeded to tiie
presidency through the death of
General Garfield and fc building
up his own little party with the
inevitable accompaniments of dis
sensions among the Republicans
and no diminution of hostility on
the part of the Democrats. It will
not be long befoie we know
.whether historj' is to repeat itself
in his case.
There is no man under the sun
who docs not feel tho better, men
tally and physically, for a day
among the quail or ducks, or on
the foaming brook with the elec
tric shock of a two pounder
thrilling him from his finger-ends
clear down to his toes. There is no
guile in the fields; no sin, no temp
tation. Thcie is no wrangling of
men, no care, but pure air, and the
delight of space and the absence of
dailv caie and attendant wony.
Adout 400,000 3'oung beef cat
tle, the handling of which tequires
2,000 men, and the selling value
of which is over 5,000,000, have
been driven north from Texas this
year.
