OREGON CONTROLLED BY sRAIL-
ROAD RING" The S. F. Chronicle has
the following under the above heading !:
The Legislature of Oegon has already
distinguished itselfby electing successor
to Senator Williams, indorsed the latter's
railroad record and snubbed General
Sherman. Oregon, politically, never does
anything by hIlves, and in her treatment
Of the distinguished soldier, whom non
comhative Democratic partisan journals
have delighted, and still delight, to assail,
she has discharged duty she owes to the
memory of the late Confederate States of
America. The election of Kelly United
States Senator, and the Endorsement of
Williams in the same breath, have fur
nishcd the basis upon which partisan Re
publican journals have charged the Dem.
ocratic Legislature with having sold out
to Ben Holladay and his projects. The
facts are simply these-let US do justice
between the exaggerations of contending
partisaus: Ben Holladay was friendly to
Williams re election, because Williams
had been Holladay's best friend in the
Senate, introducing and passing bills to
assist in the construction OF railroads /;
Southern Oregon, without distinction OF
party, saw that Williams and Holladay' s
railroad projects were good for Southern
Oregon. Williams success would insure
the completion of Southern Oregon's s
railroads, because Williams was power
in the dominant Republican party SO
Democratic members Of the Legislature
were ready to jump the party traces and
vote for Republican Williams. They
preferred their own interests to the sue
cess of Kelly, Nesmith, or any other
Democratic aspirant. The party whip
cracked fercely, and the Democrats were
coaxed and whipped into caucus, where a
series of resolutions were prepared en-.
| dorsirg the Williams Holiday railroad
and requiring the Democratic aspirants
to pledge themselves, if elected, to stand
by Southern Oregon. The resolutions
passed; the factious Southern Oregonian
representatives were appeased i; Ben.
Holiday was satisfied the "Railroad
| Ring" said well done Kelly and his fel-
! low aspirants wed with each other in tax
ing the pledge, and Williams was forgot
ten. All Of which proves that Repub-
lican railroad corporation shapes the pol
icy of Democratic Legislature in Ore
gon, as it did that of the Democratic
Legislature of California in session at
j Sacramento last Winter

The expected advance in the price of
breadstuffs, looked for at the breaking
out Of the war in Europe, has not been
realized by the speculators. Gu the con-
trary the grain market exhibits an aston
tcnishing dullnesss and depression i'll all
quarters The reason given for this is
tat the rates Of shipping advanced more
rapidly than the price of grain. Wheu
matters will improve, if at all, can be but
matter of conjecture. The prices Of

lower than some months ago Flour is

From every quarter comes up charges
of extravaganza in the manner III which
the State Printer is executing his WORK.
IF this unlawful extravaganza Is not
stopped, the printing alone for the pres

puted that at the present extravaSant
mode of doing the work, the printing for
the present year will cost s25, 900. AS
the work will cost the State Printer less
than $4,000, it will at once be seen that
the business is selfsupporting. This is
only another evidence of the extreme
economy with which the affairs Of the
State are to be managed under Demo>
cratic rule. Doubtless Oregon taxpayers
are hugely in love with this new system
of economy, inaugurated by the glorious
Democracy Such economy will certain

A DEMOCRATIC VIEw.-The Eugene

a DEMOCRATIC EIEw.-.The Eugene
City Guard of Saturday gives this :
After all the fuss and noise made by
the Democratic press throughout the
State of Oregon, it is a little singular
that the present Democratic Legislature
has quietly endorsed the late course of
Williams, and cast its whole Legislative
influence in favor of what is faniiliarlv
known as the Williams amendment to
the Pengra bill. A few members vutad
against the late action Of the Legislature
in regard to this matter, but their num-
bers were insignificant.
What has caused this great change,
both IN the public press and the individ-
ual members of the Democratic party, is a
mystery. If the opposition of the Dem
ocratic party was well founded in the
beginning, we see no just cause in the
great change manifested in favor of
the Williams project since the organiza-
ton of the Legislature.
From present appearances 1T must be
that Williams is largely interested in the
welfare of the Central Pacific Railroad;
thus leading him to oppose every project
which may tend TO lessen the business or
decrease the profits of that road 1t is a
notorious fact that the Union Pacific
Railroad has long been, and is now, rea-
dy to give Oregon connection with the
East by means of branch road to con-
| meet either Portland or some other point
in the interior of the State with that
road at Ogden.
Had the action Of the Legislature been
| otherwise than in accordance with the
wishes, plans aud designs of Williams and
Holiday we should soon have a road con-
Meeting Oregon with the East via Ogden
and the Union Pacific Railroad. The
fact of the case is, the action of the
Legislature is an endorsement of Williams
Accommodating more nor less. And
while the cry which was raised against
the so called Williams amendment has
died out, the Democracy, by some hocus
pocus, have been dragooned into a sup
port of the Southern route.
Now we are not to be understood as OPP
posing the Southern route in the least.
The more railroads in Oregon, the better
for the country and the people. The
only thing which we object to is that
Williams and Holladay shall dictate a
policy to be pursued. by the Democratic
party of the State A bold, independent
course should be pursued by the Demo-
craey in such matters; without trucking
to or consulting, with these great high
priests of Radicalism. When the repub-
lean party was in power in Oregan, nc
democrat was honored with a consulta-
ton by that party; and we are sure that
democrats are able to take care of them
selves and their interests without the kind
aid OF the Republican leaders.

It would seem that the time is coming,
says an ex change, and is near at hand,
when the ancient thrones of Europe will
be lifted from their messy foundations
and dashed one against the other. Uni
versal republican liberty is quickening in
womb Of Time; and for aught we know, it
may be born on the banks of the historic
Rhine, amid the fame and smoke and war
of conflict such as has never made the
earth to quiver in its orbit or painted the

THE DOOM OF THE PAPAcY, says an English paper,
has been the favorite subject of prophecy for any
number OF years, and hitherto the prophets have
been so sgnally unfortunate in their guesses that
the Pope in spite OF present omens can still afford
TO smile at DR.. Cumming. Aubrey mentions an sex
ceeding strange" prophecy which is its full
nlment and claims attention both on the score OF
antiquity and the friendly source from whence it
first emanated. IL occurs at the end OF Bucelinus
'Nucleus Historic" u654), and purports to have
been written by st. Malachi, monk OF Bangor and
Primate OF Ireland The exact words OF the pro-
pheey not quoted by Aubrey, but he states that
'ff 1t be true there will be but fifteen Popes more"
The occupant OF the Holy See at the time when this
observation was made was Alexander VIII, from
whom the present Pope is fourteenth in succession
II may therefore be considered that Malachi is no
prophet, else that the fall OF the Papacy will fol-
low close upon the death OF Fius TX. The latter
event. as his Holiness has often remarked OF late,
cannot be far distant and it may be added that the
life which it will terminate has been tersely but not
unhappiy described by the same ST. Malachi as
