put on any airs and try to show any of the "man

no shelter for his jubilee, his reconstructed breth
reD of the IN. Il. Church SoutA' showed their
true Southern instincts of hospitality, by giving
the church edifice to his uses, and even let the

Dip NOT Accrrr.-Tho proposition

s r { =
DIP NOT AccEpT.-The proposition
made by the Albany Democratic Club
to meet the Grant Club once month
and debate pending political issues,
was indefinitely postponed by the lat
ter body last Saturday evening. This
refusal of the Radicals to debate, is
proof positive to our-mind citherthat
they have no speakers whom they
dare pit against Democratic speakers;
or they are afraid to lot their men hear
the truth. While they have in their
ranks men of such transcendant ora
torical ability as Mr.. Russell, Mr.. Dal-
ton, DIR. Rice, Mr.. Pickett and Judge
Powell, it cannot be said that they
have no speakers able to cope with
any Democratic speakers who may be
set apart for that purpose. Hence the
conclusion is irresistible and inevita-
BILE that they arc unwilling to let their
rank and file hear the truth, as pro-
by the Democracy.

PEOPLES TRANSPORTATION
COMPANY.

From statistics complied by j. w.
McAlphin, State Engineer of the State
of New York. we learn that the aver
age cost of transportation by railroad,
is thirteen mills per ton per mile
From table of the freight charges
on the Willamette river published
November l, 1866, we learn that the
average charge on this river is one
hundred and seUenty mills per ton per
mile or a fraction over thirteen times
as much as the average charge by
railroads.
One of the great dra wbacks to the
prosperity ofthis country is the high
cost of transportation. This not on
ly strikes primarily at the producer,
the farmer and his farm, and keeps
both poor, but their losses are reflect
ed upon every branch of industry
The farmer cannot be prosperous
where one-third of the value of his
crops must go to those who carry it
to market. A railroad, or railroads
through the Willamette Valley would
always secure him transportation, at
the proper season, and at living, fair
rates, by producing competition with
the boats.
In connection with this subject we
mention that, few days ago, consid-
cradle excitement was awakened in
Oregon City by the launch of the
Le,oistOn, in the basin, above the falls,
belonging to the P. T. Company. 1t
seems that this Company threw every
obstacle possible in the way of the OPP
position line. They carried their spite
so far as to discharge, from their en-
ploy, certain men for aiding in the
launch of the Lewiston. The z. T.
Company do not like the prospect of
having their pockets depleted by op-
position. They would like to contin-
ne to charge thirteen times rs much
as the average charge by railroads.
The Oregon City Enterprise says
that the Lewiston has safely passed
through all the dangers OF the Snake,
Columbia and Willamette rivers, from
Lewiston, Idaho, to Canemah-mak-
ing the most remarkable steamboat
trip, perhaps, on record anywhere, in
any country, and now that she is
here, we heartily wish her abundant
success"

HALF SHEET.-Among county news
papers it is quite common thing t.
occasionally issue Half Sheet. Some
we have known invariably do so ev-
cry national holiday, such as Christ
mas, the fourth of July, &c, and as
mach oftcner as fair excuses could be
rendered for so doing.
Since the DEMOCRAT passed under
our control-a period now of near
eighteen months-it has been issued
regularly, on whole sheet, every
Saturday and promptly mailed, until
to-day. But circumstances wholly be-
yond our control compel us this week,
to present our readers with only a
Half Sheet. We are short of paper j;
in fact our supply is now completely
exhausted. More than six weeks ago
we ordered a good supply from San
Francisco; and we have no doubt it
is now, and for some days past has
been in Astoria, the ocean steamer be-
ing unable to get up to Portland be-
cause of the ice in the Columbia and
Willamette rivers. Foreseeino this,
some days ago we telegraphed to
Portland to have supply sent up, as
fast freight, by steamboat; but from
letter from Portland, we learn that
no boat has left that city since the 10th
instant.
In the present state of the weather,
and the condition of the river, none
can tell, with any degree of certainty,
when boat will be up to Albany =
and there is bare possibility that
the paper we have ordered may not
arrive in time even for our next issue.
All this is very annoying to us; but
it is the dictate of wisdom to submit
to what is unavoidable without al
murmur.
