pay their way in Mexico, are related by a cores

ORR REPRESENT Butte RECORD,
speaking of who shall be cur next Representative,
INDUCES in the following remarks:
I'VE want a representative alive to the busine 3
interests Of the District and that would be TO the
hest business interests of the State and of the Ma
tiou 50 far as these interests dependent upon
practical railroad through the mountains INTO Cal
ifornia The Feather river route is practicable for
a railroad through the mountains into ta.Ifornia,
and we want representative who viii secure the
customary appropriations OF land Tor il and thus
secure a serviceable read The present remnant OF
a railroad from Sacramento proves the lmpraetlea-
bilty of that route and establishes the fact that
another should be sought for. This Congressional
District extends 10 the bay of San Francisco, and
with Representative devoted TO Its interests and
to the true interests OF the state and the nation In
this respect the great natural thoroughiare INTO
California will seek its natural route. and exte nd
ing through the entire district, embrace Portland
and San Francisco within its iron arms.
Among the many able men spoken OF for the po-
si;ion we doubt il there who Will not endorse
the above II is patent to any man OF sound mind
that the Dntch Flat route cannot be Kept open on-
ring the winter and that some other route must be
chosen. Through either of two routes, the Yubs
Gap or Feather river Pass, the road might have
been made with half the money expended on the
Dutch Flat Folly" and a road too that would
never have more than two feet Of snow TO contend
with during the worst seasons. We are inclined
to think this matter of railroad across the mount
aims will enter largely into the coming hight Tor
Congressional honors, and We think properly So
Certain il is that no man who is not in favor OF To-
eating the Pacific railroad where nature has provi
ded feasible route, can hope TO meet with success

TINS RAlSIS.-lt is perhaps not generally known,
says the Visaa Data. that Tulare county produc
raisins equal any in the world. The reason ii is
not generally known IS that bat few have intro

California or Mission grape is not raisin grape
II is. when the juices are all exhausted by drying
all skin and bone. 1t has net pulp enough, teehni
cally the scccGrp lack Of solidity or consistency
Now good raisin grape must have heavy pulp
and large amount of sacoharine matter. These
qualities are exhibited largely in the Rose de Peru
Museat Of Alexandria, Red and White Syrian, and
especially, judging from the few samples we have
seen in the FiheTzagos. Upon general principles
any grape that has solid, feshy pulp, and is
sweet, will make good raisin. Thousands OF
pounds are brought here every year. II looks much

DISCHARGED FOR CAUSE.-THE Central Pacific
Railroad Company work matters right down to a
cypher. and allows no one to remain in its employ
who does not swear by its washed away and buried
under railroad route. A baggage master in
their employ recently ventured the opinion that
there more snow on the IF. route than on some
Others through the mountains, whereupon he was
Immediately discharged. No person in the employ
of that company is allowed to think for hims SELF
His value laborer is estimated by the consider
ton in which he holds the great State and National
swinde, known as the Dutch Flat Railroad route.
In this, they initiate the Sacramento Union in
Judging members of the Legislature. When that
paper finds member of the Legislature who is in
favor of building the State Capitol in the mud OF
Sacramento and in favor of the Dutch Flat Rail-
road route, he is the Hon. Mr.. Soand-So, Cor Wax
Nose,) from Sacramento or Dutch Flat; but a
member who opposes one or both of these public
nuisances, is an obscure individual from a cow
county. or some mining camp, where representative
timber is scarce. Both concerns will receive dead
shots, when the next legislature shall assemble,
fresh from tax -burdened people. These Capitol
and railroad swindlers, will then find themselves in
the position at present occupied by the unfortunate
baggage master.

Understanding to the Idaho papers they are
having exciting times in the Idaho Legislature.
Secretary Hewlett had received telegram from
Washington directing him to pay no member of
the legislature who refused to take the oath of ale

citement among some of the anti-oath members,
and the territorial Assembly was changed into an
Indignation meeting. Secretary Hewlett was sum

TIE VALLEJO RAIIRoAD.-There is little doubt
that the Vallejo Railroad is destined to be one of
the most important communications with the inte-
rior of the State. When finished it will constitute
a continuous and nearly straight line from Vallejo
to Orovie, and eventually connect with road at
0roville or Marysve, terminating in Oregon
There can scarcely be imagined in the future
greater thoroughfare. except the Atlantic and Pa
cic railroad, of which the Vallejo and Sacramento
must form portion. leading from the Bay of San
Francisco. Eventually there seems every probable
ity that the Marysville or Oroville road will be
pushed through the Sierra Nevada mountains
opening the great mining region of the interior
drained by the tributaries of the Columbia river
With railroad completed from Marysville to Ore
gon, the natural outlet for large territory would
be by branch road, entering the main track lit
tie north Of Goose lake, near the northern bounda-
ry of California. But an immense amount of
wealth will dow to the Bay of San Francisco by the
opening of the Vallejo. Marysville, and Orego
roads. By the completion OF the railroad from
Vallejo to Marysvile alone, much time will be
saved to the whole upper valley for instead of CO.
ing The roundabout way rid Lincoln, trains will
run direct.
Now there is no longer any uncertainty as to the
construction of railroad from Vallejo to Marys-
vile, citizens should take immediate steps to
form connection with the Vallejo road, either ria
Benicia or some other point commencing at Oak
lands. f. Bulletin.
The ideas of the Bulletin on this subject are IN
questionably sound and practicable, tar as they
eAteuu, out unfortunately IL mas ehtireiy over
looked one thing very important to the interests Of
the road in question and to those of San Francisco
We mean the project of a railroad up one OF the
forks of Feather river, and through Beckwourth's
pass, to connect with the Pacific and Atlantic rail-
road-a natural route through the Sierra Nevadas
far preferable to the Dutch Flat route, has been
repeatedly demonstrated. If the Bulletin would
but exert its influence and energy toward the ac-
complishment of this enterprise it would do more
to subserve the interests only of San Francisco
but of the State generally than it has ever yet
done.-Quincy Union.
