uenland a ROAD from this city 20 the
Mountain House, via. the Junction
of the North and Middle Forks of
Feather River. 1t does not follow
as matter of course, that the coun-
ty would have to construct turn
pike read from here to the junction,
If they grant a license to keep ferry
at that point. Nearly all the roads
in the county were rendered passable
by individual enterprise, before the
county was in condition to afford
them aid. This road would be rem
dered passable without calling upon
the county for any further assistance
than that of granting licence to
keep ferry and erect Bridge.
1t is contended by those who are
interested in turning the travel from
the upper country away from Oro-
vile, that it is impossible to make a
road from here to the junction, and
yet the same party are confident that
u good carriage road can be con-
structed from the Bidwell Bridge to
the American Valley, at small ex-
pense The latter road would ex-
tend a distance of seventy-fve miles
over innumerable mountains, and the
former a distance of five or six miles
through the first range of foothills !
What but self-interest would so warp
the judgment of men? Both of these
roads can be built, and license to es-
tablish q crossing at the junction,
should be no longer refused by the
county authorities. The Supervi-
sors should study the interests of the
county, and not the interest of indi-
viduals. A majority of the voters of
the county would be accommodated
by road to the junction, as the re-
suit of the late election fully shows,
as would also majority of the prop
orty holders of the county, and Oro-
vile should rise up as one man and
demand that the county authorities
be no longer influenced by individual
enterprises, but adhere to such pol
icy as will confer "the greatest good
upon the greatest number" Give
Bidwell and Wyandotte their road
from Marysville to Utah, if they de-
sire it, but give Oroville the same
privileges. 1t would cost the county
nothing, but would, on the contrary,
increase her revenue. But suppos-
ing the road should cost the county
an appropriation. The county has
made such appropriations before, on
roads leading to the Bid,ceH Bridge,
and why not do so elsewhere? Are
our authorities compelled to make ap-
preparations for such purposes only
where certain individuals are to be
benefited? Is there power behind
the throne that has pulled the Board
of Supervisors around ''like nose of
wax" and appropriated the county
funds in such a manner as to benefit
that power? If the county is to
make appropriations let the county
reap the benefit of them. Let us
give our Plumas County friends a
chance to visit Oroville without trav-
cling fifteen or twenty miles out of
their way, apparently for the single
purpose of crossing the itching palm
of some of our county dignitaries
with silver.
Those who insist that a road can
not be rendered passable from hence

SPORT FOR THE BOYS !.
The Tiffin tribune. [volume] (Tiffin, Ohio) 1848-1859, 1856-08-01

BS-It is well known that the raid
upon Lawrence, in which the town was
partially burnt and entirely pluudered,
was a strictly illegal" act, done by Or
der of a court of (in) justice, duly and
legally constituted by commission from
Franklin Pierce, and on bill found by a
grand jury duly empannelled. Douglas
and all the Buchanier party denounce the
Free State men for resisting the legally
constituted authorities. The simple ques
tion now arises: shall we sustain the
party who make such outrages legal ?
Is their legality any apology for them,
or does it not rather add to the infamy
and wiokedness Of these crimes against
the constitution, against God and man E?
Had the Missourian pirates perpetrat-
ed these acts in violation of locofoeo
policy, aud against locofoco law, we
should not hold the party responsible. Il
is because Of the color Of legality which
they have given to them. and because of
the power they have lent the pirates that
the people have resolved to put the loco
fOco party to death. FH.
This apology for the outrages in Kan
sas that they have color Of legality is
really the most damning feature in the
whole internal history
