"The vigorous onslaught of Mr..
Dawes upon the Departments for their
too high estimates, Notwithstanding its
evident unfairness in some respects,
seems to have struck o sympathetic
chord in the breasts of the Republi-
cans in Congress and all over the
country. "-Oregoaia,a, Jan. q.
''That the financial speech Of Mr..
Dawes, which has attracted 80 much
attention and been the subject both OF
extravagant encomium and adverse crit
icism, was materially out of the way
in many respects is fact now very
well established. "-O Oregonian Feb. 16.

JoHNsoN's administration got $685.
100000 for years expenditures and
that was On extravagant, corrupt and
peculating administration, fit only to
be impeached.
Grants administration demands
nearly $5O, 900. 900 more than johnson
got, and this is an honest. patriotic
and economical administration that
the people are asked and expected to
retain.

LETrER FROM HON. J. s. SMITH.

The Herald publishes the following ex-
tract from private letter of Hon. J. S.
Smith =
= I have just had an in.
terVieW with Jay Cooke, who is engineer
ing the Northern Pacific Railroad enter
prise. He informs me that the money is
already raised to complete the first section
of 240 miles from the west end of Lake
Superior to Red River, and that the work
will be commenced next month. There
have been rumors to that effect for some
days but have not been able to satisfy
myself beyond question that it was so un-
il to-day. The sum raised is S., ,000, 900,
and more was offered than was required.
Cooke is very enthusiastic about the mat
J. ter, and says he is going to make it the
business Of his life to build that road
There Is no doubt about the favor with
which the enterprise is regarded in fnan-
Cial circles, and the road will be built
The company now ask Congress to allow
them to build the main road dotcn the
Columbia and the branch to Puget Sound,
Leave will no doubt be given, and most
likely che branch aclg sserer be built.
l remain, very truly
Your friend,
j. s. SMITH.
The telegraph stated last week that Mr.
Smith had availed himself of permission
20 address the Congressional Pacific
Rail Road Committee IN favor Of Co
lunbia river branch Pacific Road, and it
has been subsequently announced that the
Committee have resolved to report in
favor Of changing the Western terminus
Of the n. P. r. r. from Puget Sound to
point on the Columbia river with a
branch to the former place. It is more
than probable THAT Mr.. smithhas been
instrumental in influencing the report Of
she Committee.

Or course the next Republican State
Convention viii have something to say
about the wise, patriotic and economi-
cal administration of Mr.. Grant. He
asks for nearly SOC, ,O0O, 900 more than
Johnson got, but then the more ex-
traxagance and peculation there is go
ing on, the more distracting noises
will have to be made about retrench-
ment and reform. Verify humbug is
great.

We hope the next Republican lee
ture on Democratic extravaganza in
California will explain whether it ever
costs in that state SO much as $62 coin
for buggy hire to take an officer one
trip q mile long. Well put our

little jobs as that,
