Tun Tacoma JVbirs thinks that
newspaper editorials should be
signed by the authors thereof.
Good idea.
"Wokk. on the extension of the
O. P. R. R., from Corvallis to Al
bany, '.vill begin on the first of
next month.
Haxibal Hamlin, the old
political veteran, says, "the high
way of politics is strewn with the
bones of men who have written
foolish letters."
It is said in London that since
Gladstone's decision has been gen
erally known to give the land law
and reform measures precedence
over home rule, all parties are pre
pared to give their support to pro
longed continuance of the present
government in power on this basis.
l)o.vx South they are saying
that Cleveland's renomination in
'8 is a certainty, as he is "the only
man that can beat Blaine." But
it is by no means assured that
Blains wilt be run in 8S. '76, 5S0
andS4, three times and out. The
nation is full of good and great
men.
Ix the house on the lGth3 the
committee on public lands decided
to recommend forfeiture of the un
patented land grant of the Califor
nia & Oregon and the Oregon &
California roads. Henic' of Cal
ifornia, was instructed to report
his fail! to the house. Theie were
four votes against the bill in the
committee.
It is openty talked, says the
Walla Walla Joimial, that money
whiskey, sluggers and prostitutes
were means employed by the rail
road lobb- to accomplish their
ends at Olympia. That cash
bribes were used there is no man
ner of doubt, though the proof
may be difficult of attainment.
Further light on the infamous in
ner history of the recent legislative
session will probably soon be
forthcoming.
It is openby asserted in Wash
ington territory journals that five
of the twelve members of the re
cent territorial council were owned
body and breeches by the railroad
corporations and that these five
voted solidly for the corporation
and against the people on every
occasion. Some of the newspapeis
name them and make specific)
charges. These pesky newspapers
they won't even let a thrifty leg
islator alone when he sees a chance
to make a stake, even by selling
out the j)cople that sent him to
the capital to represent them.
Gen. Siiep.jian thin'cs the tyr
anny of tiie press is just awful.
It was kind of rough, on th" gal
lant old veteran to give him away
as some of the eastern journals did
in that little contradiction of his
where he wrote adverse criticism
of Grant, and then denied it. Be
sides the St. Louis papers have
treated him very shabbily; and,
take it altogether, the genera! has
just ground for complaint. But
he should remember h v he
gagged and sat down on (' o- news
paper boys in 'G3, '! ,nd 'Go.
He has forgotten and they haven't.
That is the difference.
Turc Oregonian concedes that
we have lucid intervals, amounting
to at least four weeks in a month.
In this we enjoy a distinguished
advantage over the gentleman
who through mistaken sympathy
on the part of the other stock
holders is allowed to edit the Ore
Ionian. He is crazy all the time.
Sometimes it is Mitchell, some
times the Columbia river of com
merce, sometimes it is riot, but
lie always sees ghosts and bats and,
like all others of his unfortunate
olass, grows angry at those who
refase to see things in the distort
ed vision furnished him by his
poor brain. Charity suggests con
sideration and a reply tempered by
sympathy. It is indeed sad to
contemplate a wreck, and the hal
lucinations of a once brilliant mind
furnish food for regretful reminis
cence on the part of his friends
and enemies alike. He fain would
be our monitor. He only suc
ceeds in being a horrible example,
and a warning.
