WASHINGTON, Nov Is, 1915.
Oegom-A Nice D,stinction-Ihe Printing-A
still Nicer Arrangement
.Theie is nice organic distinction tobe consi der
ed in all discussions Of the Oregon Question. The
last number OF the Union explains 1t. II is this and
let it be borne in mind by everybody, that the ad-
ministraon has not declared through its organ III
determination to have "the whole of Oregon o
none, but mark you, that far as our title is con
cemed, we have title to the "whole Of Oregon or
none. The door not barred. There is chance yet
that it will be opened to compromise or postpone
ment of the question. The late war-bast was feel
er, like the compromise Of last summer, in the 49h
parallel, which Mr.. Buchanan suffered to leak out,
with the express design OF ascertainlng the tone
the popular pulse. The 10th parall ell would notsaD
swer- the public pulse shrank from it as mesmerl
zed subject shrinks from strangers hand when
such subject is in the clarvoyant state. And the
public press has heard the war-bast. +" in sorrow
and in anger" that the organ should be driven TO
such stroke of policy as war with England, In
voving all the world IN its consequences, merely Tor
the great desideratum of self-preservation-ln the
concentration OF the whole democratic party in
Congress upon the administration as the war party,
and necessarily upon the organ as the exponent OF
the administration. But now the organ opens the
door little and whispers In the voice OF an oracle,
ambiguous to the uninitated but ''cear as mud'' to
the knowing ones: "Dont be alarmed, gentlemen,
its only the title that we were talking about our IL
tie is clear to the 'whole of Oregon none" but
that does not imply as non seguifer, that we
going to insist upon all BY no means. But we tell
the organ, on the main question, that having de-
clared and assumed, and proved our title to the
whole, it will be about difficult and dangerous 10
to give away parcel for the preservation OF peace
10 rush headlong into for the preservation OF
the whole.
The better policy, for all, is the policy OF Mr..
Calhoun, to let the matter stand, with this addition
open the way of communication TO oregoh-pro-
tect it-give to emigrans the means and munitions
of defence the same as volunteers, and they Will
settle the question IN good time, ana wnen tney are
ready to annex we I'll annex 'eni, from ftyfour tor
ty to the Mexican line, or further down by few
Thousand miles, with the assent OF all concerned
That's the way to do it, without stopping the people,
who are
Busy in the cotton trade,
And sugar line"
And without stirring up the pesky abolitioniss aid
the niggers.
But we have still nicer arrangement than war
for the securing OF the printing to the organan ar
rangement talked OF, but which is very likely TO
turn out Simon Pure compromise. And Wen tell
you about 1t, right away. There are three democra-
tic papers here tor the printing OF Congress- and only
two houses to divide among them Ihr organ
must have the House, and either the Constitution or
the u. s. Journal must turn up Dlank for 'he sen
ate. Well, now, what's to be done! Let us see
Suppose we send Mr.. VIM. A. HARRISBURG a men,
Der Of the House from the tenth legion IN Virginia,
and an excellent man every respect-suppose we
send hlm as a Charge to the Argentine Republic, or
some other Republic in South America, such az
thew are Good, now. Well, then, suppose we
give Mr.. Hart the other editor OF the C0rstHmtoh,
good clerkshiP, heyi suppose we give Mf. nar
a clerkshpl WE'LL let us think little Yes, |
