The state rights democrat. [volume] (Albany, Linn County, Oregon) 1865-1900, 1872-04-12

OREeoN.-Following is a portion Of
the Introductory article in Hugh
Small's work on "Oregon and Her Re-
sources:"
1t is however for the special benefit
of the industrious classes throughout
the civilized world that the paramount
claims of Oregon are set forth in these
pages. To any and all of these classes,
who want q home where health and
comfort, honor and prosperity attend
the labor of the dlligent, Oregon is, OF
all the places on this continent, the
State where all these are to be found
i'm the greatest abundance. The pro-
gress of the State for the last two years,
since the introduction of railways, has
been very great. a new era has dawn
ed on Oregon, and its future improve
ments and progress seem to know no
limits. Its resources, In almost every
department of human industry, appear
to be inexhaustible. The demand for
good mechanics, tradesmen, laborers
and farm hands, will be great tor the
next fifty years. The land is unlocked,
and there is every facility for getting
lands and farms in any part of the
State, of every description, for every
purpose connected with agriculture,
and at all prices adapted to h means
of emigrants. For Intelligent and in
dustrious farmers of moderate means
there is no State in the Union, and no
country in the world, where such men
can rise so rapidly to comfort and indie
pendence as i'll Oregon.
To OUR BUSINESS MEN.-As our sub
scription list is greatly increased fol-
the campaign, especially in Linn coun-
ty, our Albany business men, as well
as those of other towns throughout the
county, will readily see the benefits to
accrue from advertising in u columns
Just now. No better investment could
possibly be made. Our books now
show the following lists of subscribers
ut the p~ostoifices named: Peoria, 10;
Halsey, Il; Shedd's, 10; Lebanon, so;

making a total of 565 copies distribut-

doubts this statement, our books are

Knforeenent Of Harbor Laws.

Justice Dibble, Of the second justice court
has decided IN the case of the Charity Hos
pital vs. Captain Soule, Of the ship Shate-
mue, which vas brought on the information
Of Harbor Master Nortoa for violation Of
harbor laws and regulations, in refusing to
remove his ship il conformity herewith,
that the captain has laid himself liable to
the penalty Of 800, and therefore rendered
Judgment with costs to that amount against
the ship.
Judge Dfbble in his written opinion de-
clared that the law is ample in its power to
enforce police regulation for the benefit OF
the commerce of this port, and that viola
tions Of them should be rigidly enforced by
the officer charged Herewith, SO that all
classes of commerce and the shipping in
terest could get the benefit thereof
Uuder the laws the penalties incurred in
this case go to the benefit of the Charity
Hospital, but to the marine branch thereof
So it will be perceived that the shipping in
terest is benefited by the enforcement Of
its laws.

Responsible for tie Sentiments Expressed
IL TIE Communications.
The Insurance Question.
In conversation with large number Of
/ our prominent insurance directors and
merchants we ascertain that the question
of consolidation Of the insurance eompa-
MES had taken a strong hold upon the pub
Lie mind, and there is now fully developed
astrOng current of public sentiment that
must drive each and all of these institu-
tions toward reform and retrenchment.
1t seems now to be generally accepted
4 fact that a consolidation of many of the
old infuranee companies is absolutely nee
/ essarY st0r a preservation of thOir capital
and business. The ball is set in motion,
1 and it viii continue to roll. Commerce can
! stand no such impediments as are imposed
! by these institutions.
The only difficulty in the way of CONSOLE
] dation seems to be the throwing out of EN-
/ ployment of a large number of employees of
/ of these companies. That such an excuse
as this should be seriously considered would
lead to the inference that New Orleans is
behind the age. ii our insurance cOmpa-
MES are hospitals for br0ken-dOwn mer-
chants and abandoned accountants, they
ought to be thrown overheard without a
moments hesitation. There is no dead
head list in commerce or in business that is
connected Win commerce.
Insurance directors only substantiate this
plea When they refuse to recognize the ne
eessity for consolidation. We do not be-
lieYe that any consideration for broken
down employees viii influence the settle
ment of this question If it does, this
paper at least is prepared TO discuss the sub
jeet in all its bearings, upon the broad
ground Of commercial necessity.
The above is from the commercial column
of the Pieayuns, Of Sunday. While we cor
daily submit the unity and strength which
would be infused by a consolidation Of OR
insurance companies, we differ il toto from
from the senseless abuse of the calico organ
against the attaches and clerks in these
Offices. A more thoroughly capable, efficient
and deserving class of gentlemen never adj
ministered large corporation affairs than
those who now fill the desks of the offices
respectively spoken Of
Yard sticks are poor measures Of reform
when branded against monetary institu-
tons, and particularly SO when fourisbed
and hurled with maledietions against mod
esty and worth. Our insurance companies
are solid boast to our city; their trustees
are men Of wealth, intelligence and bust.
ness integrity, and their employees tried,
trusted and faithful servants
''Broken-down merchants and abandoned
accountants do not administer their affairs, =
nor at this late day, after buffetiag and
weathering every financial storm, do they
seek or rely for help on Picaystae directory.
Our best men have accumulated wealth,
by minding their own business.

FFYAXPAYERS ARE REMINDED THAT THE TIME
Il is last passing away in which they can nav
city taxes without heavy costs.
1t is perhaps net generally known that tbe mere
register of tax bills in the Office Of the Recorder OF
Mortgages. constitutes lien upon all the delin-
quents property, and no transfer caa be made
until the bill is paid with all the costs
Taxes may now be paid as follows: S 20 in
cash, ST. IS IN five eighths return tax certificates
of appropriation, school certificates OF metropolitan
police warrants.
The extraordinary discount at which these obi-
cations can be bought goes far 20 neutralize the
just complaint Of heavy taxes while the purpose
for which the cash is required viz: to pay the in
terest on the bonded debt appeals to the patriot
ism Of every citizen who desires to redeem our city
from its embarTassmenta, which can not be done
unless the credit Of its bonds Is preserved

having been a judge in Louisiana-was one
of the editors Of this paper, and as such ac-

him as a representative man of the intelli-

The Austin, Texas, Jolu1lai of the sixth
instant says;
We learn that the Central railroad has
required of its employees to sign contracts
relnquishing all claims for damages arising
from injuries inflicted By the road. Those
refusing to accept those terms were dis
charged. A large number of these men
gathered at Hampstead Yesterday and pre-.
vented the passage Of trains and mails. We
are, therefore, without our news exchanges.
A strong detachment of police was sent
down from Austin yesterday and we hope
quiet win promptly be restored.
As to the question in dispute, many law
yers consider the concession demanded by
the company as against public policy and
void ab i1itiO. The only way by which cor
porations are vulnerable for criminal neg
Igence, resulting in loss OF life, is through
the pocket, and the travelling public look
with disfavor on any attempts of capitalists
TO diminish that wholesome vuinerability.
The same paper adds
The train that went to Hampstead yes
terday with Marshal Evans and a detach-
ment of police, was run of the track near
Hampstead and the party were consider
ably bruised. The track has been taken
up at Hampstead, all travel stopped and
the trains turned back. Those engaged in
the movement are said to number nearly
three hundred, many of whom are armed.
