The Ogdensbnrg Loan.

To the Editor Of the Press:
observe that the friends of the proposed Og-
densburg loan are publishing in the daily news
papers letters from several of our most eminent
business men, in which the writers favor the
duce in support of their theories, STATISTICS and
opinions in relation to the vast increase of bust
ness which the completed enterprise will bring
to Portland. Passing by their figures with the
remark that all previous estimates connected
with the cost and traffic of the road have SO far
been widely at variance with the facts, L am
willing to admit that the road would be great
advantage to the city. But these writers care
fully avoid the main question Is it advantage
eous for the city of Portland to loan its credit
to the amount of $33OO,OOe to complete the
road? use the maximumIsum for it is evident
that it will require this amount to free the road
from all liabilities and make the city's present
stock safe from the claims of mortgages. Sup
pose the road Is finished at cost of 81, 800 900;
there are $S0O,O of first mortgage bonds out,
and the holders of these must be first satisfied,
if it requires the entire road. To make the
city's claim good under the law these bonds
must be extinguished in some way, either in
cash or the exchange of new bonds at a dis.
count, for the old bonds at par, difference Of
20 or 25 per cent between the market rates of
the two at the time of issue, The people are e
deal with this question as pure business trans
action, and want the supporters of the meas
ure to come down to plain common sense and
leave spread-eagle eloquence alone,

uho Statistical Bureau.

Tn the matter of collecting statlstlcs we
NAV learn much from the experience OF Mas
sacbusetts though we may not be able to go
into the business so extensively. That State
has no less than six different boards whose
duty in whole or in part it is to collect stats
teal information. These are the Boards OF
Agriculture, of Education, of State Charities,
of Health. and vital statistics, the Bureau OF
Labor, and the Board of Railroad Cominis-
sioners. 1t is the business OF these poarus
among other things to collect statlstics reia-
ting to their several departments Inc Du-
reau of Labor, and the Board OF Health po1n
of which originated in 1869 are among the
most important. The former consists Oh
chief appointed by the governor blennlaly
and deputy appointed by the chief 1t is
their duty ''to collect, assort systematlze anu
present in annual reports to the Legislature
on or before the first day of March IN each
wear statistical details relating to all depart
ments of labor in the common wealth. esPec-
tallv in its relations to the commercial, INDUS
,r;a, social. educational and sanitary con-
dition of the laboring classes and to the per-
manent prosperity of the productive industry
of the commonwealth" The compensation
of the chief is $500 and of the deputy $4,000.
The Bureau has power to send for persons
and papers and to examine witnesses under
oath.
The Board of Health consists of seven per-
sons appointed by the Governor for seven
years whose duty it shall be to make sani-
tarv investigations and inquiries in respect to
the people, the causes Of disease, and espec-
tally of epidemics and sources Of mortality,
and the effects of localities, employments,
conditions and circumstances on public
health; and they shall gather such tnforma-
ton in respect to those matters as they may
deem proper for diffusion among the people. y
The work is superintendent by a Secretary
elected by the board who receives salary Of
S25OO. 1t will be seen by this that Massachu.
sets goes quite fully into the work of gath.
ering statistics, though the system does moi
have that unity which 1t would have if the
whole were superintendent by one head and
made to correspond in every part. We hope
the inquiries to be undertaken by our Bureau
of Statistics will be even more comprehensive
than in Massachusetts,. Why not ascertain
and embody in the report statistics of State
and municipal taxation, valuation, debt, ex-
penses, statistics of crime, of pauperism, Of
the working of our divnrce laws, &c? If we
could have the figures relating to these sub
jects from the date of our separate organiza
ton as a State it would afford a comparative
view of our social and industrial condition
which would be highly instructive.

Portland Lumber Market.

Mr.. EDIToR.-A communication in the
PRESS of the 9th inst gives a fabulous state
ment of a vast lumber country between Con-
way and Dalton through which the Portland &
Ogdensburg will penetrate. 1t seems some
what surprising these untold millions of feet of
lumber should have been just discovered, and so
situated that by constructing the Portland and
Ogdensburg, they can be brought to market,
and yet more surprising that the owners of
these hundreds of thousands of millions of tim
Der lands should not have built rail road to
connect at North Conway, instead of begging
of city of another State to tax their people to
enrich the owners of this Eldorado whose
countless millions in timber lands would enable

British Inconsistency.

The English argument, if such it may be
called, the only one offered against the Amer
lean view of the recent treaty, is, that it is
so absurd and outrageous that nobody can
suppose that it was intended by the negotia-
tors. But is it half as absurd or outrageous
as that which suggested to the British gov
eminent to present to the Board sitting in
Washington, claims for the naturalization
of British blockade runaerss That Britain
presented those claims without objection
from the other side, proves that both parties
understood that all claims, however absurd
or impudent, could be lawfully presented I'M
der the terms of the treaty, leaving the ques-
ton to be decided by the constituted tribunal,
whether they ought to be allowed and paid
1t certainly has queer look that the En-
glish government should think treaty invalid
under which they have presented without
objection demands for indemnity to British
runners of the blockade, and should threat
en- to repudiate the same treaty for no other
reason than that claims are presented against
il for damages consequent upon their admitted

VICTORY OVER CoNsOLIDATION-A LEATHER
MEDAL-THE ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS CT
THE LAW.
LEWISTON, Feb. IL, 1872
To the Editor Of the Press.
The passage of the charter for the railroad
from here to Danville junction, is regarded as
the first victory over consolidation. The citi-
zens of the two places are very much pleased
over the result, and extend their hearty con-
CALCULATIONS to Messrs Knight and Fessenden
of Portland for their earnest efforts in our be-
half. 1 understand the shoemakers of Auburn
are preparing leather medal to be presented
to the efficient and able correspondent of the
Boston Journal from Augusta for his assist
ance rendered in behalf of this justifiable meas
ure.
Our annual municipal election takes place
three weeks from next Monday. There are a
number of candidates in the field on the Re-
publican side, among whom are David Farrar,
NJ T. Ludden, j. L. III. Cobb, G. O. Barber
and j. G. Coburn. Mayor Garcelon who has
had long run of fever, is conyalescent, and
has gone to Rockland for a season of recrea-
ton. The Democrats have decided to renomi-
nate Mayor Garcelon for reelection. There is
no prospect of a Democratic success this spring,
as the Republicans are firmly united, and
there are no side issues as was the case last
spring.
The prompt arrest and heavy fine of the
rumsellers in the two cities for the last six
months has put veto on that traffic and no
one can afford to assume the responsibility, so
stringent are the laws, and so well executed
An old rumseller said to me few days ago,
that he should not attempt the sale again until
the city administration was wholly Democratic.
This person has paid during the past two years
$500 fines. Some of our apothecaries have re-
Gently been victims.
Sleighing is excellent in this city, but since
the recent storm the country people are not so
well favored; some of the roads are nearly
blockaded, and where they have been opened
are full of what the schoolboys call Jumpers"
down and up.

among the candidates at large, to the National
Republican Convention at Philadelphia. H.

A Legislative Committee, after examining af-
fairs in jackson County, Florida, make start
ling report to the Governor, reciting outrages
in that locality exceeding the worst Ku-Klux
terrorism of South Carolina. Over 1874 muir
ders, some of the victims women and children,
have been committed by a band of'openly or
ganized outlaws. Outrages on colored people
are noticed in other parts of the State, and
martial law is strongly recommended until the
unruly can be thoroughly subdued and the
wheels of civil government put into effective
operation.
The Italian government has broken off diplo-
matte relations with France. There is nothing

THE question of a war with England, if it
should become imminent, would mean more in
Portland than almost anywhere else. This
city is, for military purposes, if for no other,
'the natural seaport of the Canadae." In the
winter season, especially, Portland must be the
British base of supplies, since it is their only
means of easily reaching the Canadian frontier
by rail If the 'Intercolonial Road stretch
ing, with its connections, from Halifax to
Riviere du Loup, the Eastern terminus of the
Grand Trunk, were finished, the British would
have the means of reaching Ontario and Que
bee without passing through Maine. But as
matters now stand, does it not seem as if the
combat, in the improbable event of its ever
opening, would begin with struggle for Port
land harbor and the Grand Trunk railroad?
