preceding it. II omitted, the reader
might err rs &c whether the word
&" grantees" in the bill, is intended to
mean grantees under the railroad grant
or under the presumption or homestead
laws, but no mistake can be made when
the whole bill is read.
If the Union had published the whole
bill, while its comments thereon would
have BETRAYED gross Ignorance, it would
have have been entitled to that charity
which ali intelligent public always ac-
cords in such cases: but when it makes
statements calculated to injnre another
suppressing the evidence that would
prove them false, all alike are compelled
to doubt its honesty of purpose as we'll

A REFORMATION IN DRESS. - A dress
reform convention was recently held in
San Francisco, and permanent associ.
alton organized under the name of the
:" San Francisco Temperance and Dress
Reform Alliance" The Chronicle, the
flash paper of that city, characterizes the
proceedings as " silly" but our readers
will he better able to from correct opin-
ion from statement of their position on
the subject under consideration. If it
is "silly' to dress sensibly, then the
Chronicle is correct, but not otherwise.
The first degree of the association pro-
vides that Any woman by signing the
degree, pledges herself that, on the 4th
day of July, 1874, she will publicly
adopt and hereafter wear, such style of
dress as suits her taste, under the fol-
lowing restrictions: A length of skirt
reaching to within four inches from the
floor, or as much shorter as the person
may desire; the protection of the lower
limbs by pants, or warm drawers cover
ing the ankles to suit the taste of the
wearer; the abrogation of, or wearing
an improved corset, so as to admit of
full respiration; the removal of every
thing which will produce undue heat to
the brain, or spine; and the wearing of
large-sized, thick-soled and low-heeled
shoes or boots

vote is not yet published, but authentic
returns from the whole State place the
majority at from 400 to 600. The coun-
ties carried by the Democrats are Jack
son, Josephine, Linn, Lane, Yamhill,
Clackamas, Columbia, and three of the
five counties in Eastern Oregon. The
Independents have carried Douglas,
Benton, Polk, Washington, and elected
a part of the county officers in Linn
and Multnomah. The Republicans
have got away with parts of Marion

BILL RELATING TO RAILROAD LANDS,

A bill for the relief of settlers on railroad
lands.
BE Il enacted by the Senate and House
Of Representatives Of the United States of
america IN Congress assembled, That
whenever, in the adjustment of q
railroad-grant, any of the lands grant.
ed be found in the possession of an act
ual settler whose entry or fling has
been allowed under the pre-emption or
homestead laws Of the United States
subsequent to the time at which, by the
decision of the land-office, the right of
said road was declared to have attached
to such lands, the grantees, upon q
proper REIMBURSEMENT of the lands so
entered OF filed for, shall be entitled to
select an equal quantity of other lands
in lieu thereof from any of the public
lands within the limits of the grant not
otherwise appropriated at the date of
selection, to which they shall receive
title the same as though originally
granted. And any such entries or fl
ings thus relieved from conflict may be
perfected into complete title as if suclI
lands had not been granted: P,orided,
That nothing herein contained shall in
any manner be so construed as to en-
large the grant to any such railroad:
-dnd prorided further, That this act shall
not he construed so as in any manner
to confirm or legalize any decision or
ruling of the Interior Department un-
der which lands have been certified to
any railroad-company when such lands
have been entered by pre-emption or
homestead settler after the location of
the line of the road and prior to the
notice to the local land-otfice of the
withdrawal of such lands from market.
1t will be observed that the second
section of the bill, by which it was
sought to place the actual settlers and
cash purchasers on an equal footing,
has been omitted. The committee on
Public Lands, to whom the bill was re-
ferred, struck this section out, against
the earnest protest of our Delegate.
