THE RIGHT OR WRONG DOCTRINE
The public journals of the radical school Of
politics, keep constantly reiterating the
doctrine that although we may admit the
present Adminisl ration to be weak and
wrong in many respects, yet because this is
so we should be more firm in upholding it.
T-is seems to US to be rather singular soit
of morality but it is about in keeping
with the "higher-law'' fanatics who put
such ideas aAoat We must, according to
them, even vote for men who are pledged
t. support these Weaknesses and wrongs
not directly, but indirectly. Now we hold
that vhen this, or any other Administra-
ton commits great blunders and wrongs
that it should be the duty of every Ameri-
can citizen who can see these weaknesses,
to denounce them by word and seek their
correction through the ballot box. 1t does
not follow, however, that because we seek
to correct what we be believe to be Admin
istraton errors, that we should curse the
Government We should willingly and
cheerfully support the Administration in
every rightful act, but try and correct its
blunders; but to say that we must support
wrongs, is, to our thinling, an insult to
the intelligence and dignity of the Ameri-
can people. 1t is certainly a dangerous
heresy to suppose that he Administration
is the Government IF we make no dis
tinction between the ta then we must sup
port the Administration AS THE GOVERN
MENT though it should be radically wrong
in every particular. Those at the head of
the Government may be even very honest.
and administer affairs to the best of their
ability, yetif they are led by corrupt dem
agogues into every diabolical scheme, it is
70 reason why a whole nation should
follow in their footsteps. The agents of
the Government may deviate but the Gov
ernment itself should make a straight rec
ord in its onward course.

Completion of the New Road,

The new Dad from this place to Grand
Ronde valley is now completed, and teams
have commenced travelling over it. Messrs
w. II. Patten and Lancaster, of this place,
crossed over the road this week, with their
teams, on their return trip from Boise. Mr..
P. informs US that the road has not been
misrepresented as to its superiority over
the old one, and that the only thing now
required to render it in every respect su-
perior road is travel to beat dowr the
track. The grade is gradual op Doth sides
of the mountain, With 20 steep ascents
such as are on the old road nor are there
any of those rocky places. which render
the ol1 road so Objectionable to teamsters
There is plenty of grass and water all along
the road, with camping places at conyen-
lent distances. Loaded teams will make
the trip from this place to Grand Ronde
valley in two and half to three days, with
perfect ease-just half the time that is re-
quired to make the trip by the old road.
Mr. Pa,ten will start his teams across the
road in few days, loaded with goods for
Roise. We learn also that a number of
Government teams, destined for the new
Fcrt at Boise, will go out that way next
week,
