Pushed for Capital.

Anyone in reading the Democratic
journals of the day, can easily detect
their utter want of political capital,
upon which to base their claims to the
shfirages of the people. From the time
of their adoption of the principle of
secession, their tendency has been
downward and their influence tn the
decline. Their last great cry is, that
Mr. Holiday is debating for and ALSO
lutely running The Republican rar'y;
and that it is being run in the interests
OF, monopolies. Any one conversant
With the history of the Republican party
knows full well that it has ever
favored the principle of internal i'm
provement. The great trans -con,inen-
tai railroad, aud all the vast Improve
ments Of the day are attributable to the
Republican party. However much
may be said Of the bad policy of grant
ing large tracts of the public domain
for construction of railroads, none
would be willing to place the Pacific
coast back into the condition in which
it vas prior to the construction of the
overland road, and take the chances of
its being built on different basis. The
many advantages derived therefrom arc
SO apparent to our citizcns that they
are willing to accept tho situation.
The great cry made by our opponeats
against the Republicans, that they favor
Gonopolies, and that the late State
Ceagep ton was in the interest Of Ben
Holiday, because they favored land
grant for the construction Of certau
railroads in the State, is Offset by an
other clause in the platform which re-
stricts the sale of all granted lands, and
s;ipulates that proceeds, only, Of the
sales shall pass into the hands of the
companies. In striking contrast with
this, is the act Of the last Legislature,
which allowed thousands ofJacres of the
so.called swamp lands to pass without
competition into the hands Of few
land -grabbers, who stood ready the
moment the act was passed to file their
applications and gobble up the entire
area oe such lands, and leave the actual
settler, for whom the Democrats pretsnd
to have so much sympathy, to purchase
of those spectators or remain homeless.
It is very evident that if Mr.. Holiday
had had the control Of the Republican
State Convention, those grants would
have been required without any stipula>
tion or reservation, instead of being re-
stricted to the proceeds only Of the
sales. This, in common with many
other claims of the opposition, shows
the strait they are pushed to for capital
upon which to operate.

Mr., Shoemaker Of Pennsylvania has
introduced in Congress bill providing
that regular publishers and dealers in
newspapers and periodicals may receive
by mail such quantities Of either as they
may require in bulk, whether wholly or
in part printed, and pay the postage
thereon rs received at the same pro rata
as regular subscribers to publications
weighing four ounces who pay quarterly
in advance. This bill is probably inten-
ded for the benefit not only of news
dealers who prefer to use the mails rath-
er than the express companies for the
transmission Of their wares, but also of
country newspaper publishers who wish
to receive their patent outsides through
the Post Office.

Something In 1T.


We, last week, published small
notice il our local columns, designed to
apply to class of persons well under
stood by journalists, persons who are
always desirous Of getting their names
in paper without any cost to them
selves, under the plea that it helps to
fill up The HeroM, which, by the
way, is edited by fresh import, who
unfortunately lacks both wit aud wis
dom, attempts in its last issue to make
a point on it. This comes with bad
grace from metropolitan journal, with
an imported editor, who is expected to
inform the beniphtcd of Oregon how
they should do instead of bnrlesqueing
what they do. II the editor would take
his advice to himself he would doubt
less get up paper alive to the issues Of
the day, and one which would take
front rank among the journals Of the
State, instead of following in leading
strings and failing to sustain single
point; even when coming in contact with
journals far less pretending. Follow
yonr own counsel, Mr.. HeraM, and
We see how it works, and then, per-
haps, We will be wiling to admit there
is something in It,

ANOTHER GUN.-The news from
Connecticut are certainly cheering to
the Republicans. The straight Re-
publican ticket was elected b. major
itY oyer all opponents by 300; plurali-
ty Of 1910 for Jewell, the Republican
candidate. Thus, one by one the stars
are being added to the Republican ban
ner. This election following so closely
in the wake Of that Of New Hampshire
taking up the shout before the echoes
Of the latter had died away, will inspire
the Republican party to renewed en-
ergy, to secure, if possible, victory
WHICH shall cover the entire country, so
that the notes of triumph which were
sounded in New England shall be
echoed across the Rocky and
reverberatc along the shores Of the Pa
cfic ocean. The ball is sarted, keep it
rolling.

The Public Debt.

Hon. Henry Snapp in an able speech
in the House of Representatives Mar.
2, made the following summary of the
National Debt. He says:
''On the 1st day of August, 1865,
the recognized indebtedness of the
nation was $2,757 100000 To addition
to this sun, State war claims were pre-
sented aud paid to the amount of $50,
100000 more. Then came tens of
thousands of unsettled claims to con-
tractors, and other expenses. the whole
aggregating NOR than $250,000,000
all of which last named sum has been
paid, making the whole debt, as / lave
said, at least$3 100000. This i'm
mcnso debt has been reduced below So,
280,000,000 500, 100000 having
been paid in the brief period of six
years almost one fourth Of the cost
of the entire war has been paid off, and
not in greenbacks either, but in good
old Democratic gold. The Govern
ment is now able to sell five per cent.

Monopolies.

One would almost come TO the con-
clusion, by reading the Democratic
journals of the day, that everybody,
save few Democratic editors, had lost
their common sense and were, conse-
quently, in danger of losing their en-
tire liberty. We can hardly pick up
paper of that ilk but it prates about the
danger to be feared from monopolles.
If, when law was upon our statutes,
it was like the laws of the Medes and
Persians, there night he some sense in
such prating. 1t cannot, however, be
denied that the Americans of to-day
are a reading, thinking people, able to
discuss matters which require their at
tent ion, think for themselves and can
be reached only through their judg'
ment When, therefore, we talk of any
great evil, it is not only necessary to
denounce it as an evil but to prove it
to be such. Some Of our Democratic
papers have endeavored to carry the
impression that the late Republican
State Convention was run in the in-
terest of monopolies, without showing
any one point to prove that such was
the case. That railroads are demanded
by the people, is evident that these
roads have to be, in the very nature Of
things, assisted by the people is also
evident; that the roads when first built
are to great extent monopoies, needs
no demonstration and that they are
eventually run in the interests Of the
people is equally apparent. 1t is said
that Mr.. Holiday is gaining entire con-
troll Of the carrying trade Of Oregon,
and that he is charging more than for
merly for both freight and passage
The question, therefore, arises, can Mr.
Holaday if he wishes, retain the entire
carrying trade of Oregon? No rea>
sonable mind would for moment con
tend that he could, unless hu was dis.
posed to carry for reasonable prices, and
to that no one could object. Already Is
the Y. Z. L. T. Co making arrange
ments to put line of steamers on the
route between the Columbia river and
San Francisco, aud whenever there is
grinding monopoly there always will be
some men or company OF men to COM
blue against it.
The Democratic party of Oregon is
the last that should complain of monop
oics, after throwing the entire swamp
lands Of the State into the hands Of
few men who are disposed to spend lit
tie, if anything, to further the interests
of Tie State or develop its resources,
after giving few party favorites SO
900 extra for doug the work on the
Canal and Locks at Oregon City, and
10 addition to this erkro allowing them
to charge three times as much for
frei4hts as was required by another
company aud after passing the Lit.
CANT Act, allowing few journals in the
State to monopoE1e the pubic printing,
at more Moa douLke the usual rates.
Those who live in glass houses should
never throw stones, and certainly in
the matter of monopo!ies 10 charge can
be brought against the Republican
party Of Oregon which wouli bear the
least mparison with gigantic monopo-
lies fostcred by the Democrats during
the last two years.

LIBEL LAw.-The Legislature of
California has a bill, which has rccei-
we'd the signature of the Coy, and be-
come law, requiring plaintiffs in libel
suits, to give security in the sum of
$500 for costs accruing from such
suits. California need d law Of this
Kind, as it had become too common for
persons Of 20 res e liability of charac ter
to commence suit against newspapers,
for merely mentioning their names in
connection with some scandaious Ope-
rationS, and also against persons who
had connected their names with matters
Of that nature THIS law viii! have a
beneficial effect BY putting step to ac-
tons of this kind rs none will be able to
give the security required unless their
charges are well sustained The law
was demanded by the entire press Of
the State.

THE COURTS.

COUNTY COURT.-The will of G. G.
Torbett was admitted to probate. F. G.
Huntington was appointed and qualified as
executor.
CIRCUIT CoURT.-The case of Needles
ct al VS. TowsOn was set for yesterday. AL
the lawyers, witnesses and others interested
in the case were in attendance, but pro-
ceedings were stopped by an injunction
from the Chancery court.
MAGISTRATES CoURTs.-In Justice
Wilkinson's court, Robert Beach, charged
with larceny, pleaded guilty. In default Of
$1,000 bail he was committed to trial at the
next term of the Criminal court.
In Justice Baskette's court Carroll Scott,
charged with horse stealing pleaded guilty.
In default of 81 900 bail he was committed
for trial.
SUPREME CoURT.-ORe section of this
court is still engaged on the Maury equity
docket. The other section yesterday after
disposing of the John Presswood murder
case, commenced on the Davidson county
criminal docket, taking mp the murder case
of Young Alexander.
The flank movement of the Bank of
Tennessee in continuing their case in the
Supreme Court, involving the validity of
that class of notes known as the Torbett,
or new issue, and thus postponing decis-
ion for another twelve months has materi-
ally lessened the demand on the part of
buyers and reduced its speculative value.
The case before the court came up from
Maury county upon appeal by the Bank,
judgment having gone against it there.
Thus the State is promised a little more
breaking time to prepare for the absorption
of this circulation; and the hope is INDUCED
that the wisdom Of the Legislature viii de-
wise some more practical mode Of disposing
of it than to have it forced upon the reve-
nue. officers of this State by means of ju-
dicial decisions.

SemI-OnfcIaI.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-The note OF
Earl Granville has been answered in ami
cable terms, so as to leave no doubt in the
English mind of the friendly feelings of our
Government, and of its desire to have full,
perfect and final settlement of all cl inns
through the means specified in the treaty,
namely, either by arbitrator, who may
award sum in gross or by assessors, who
are required to subscribe to the solemn de-
claration that they will impartially and
carefully examine and decide to the best of
their judgment, and according to JUS
tice and equity, all matters sub
mitted to them. Of course, should
the arbitrator end the question by
awarding sum in gross, there will be no
occasion to resort to the alternative of as
SCISSORS. Thus the United States Govern
ment adheres to its position as heretofore
indicated and sees no occasion TO modify
its statement Of the case. Having in good
faith submitted the questions involved to
arbitratOrs, it will as required by the treaty
abide the result.
The reply of the Secretary of State was
sent to New York by this evenings mail and
will be dispai ched thence by to-morroW's
English steamer. The Cabinet agreed to all
the points presented and were in session
several hours on the subject.
