WoMAN's INFLUENCE.-The Washing
ton journalists and letter writer's, with
scarcely an exception, attribute the po.
litical advancement of Mr.. Williams,
first to the Cabinet and then to the
nom ination for Chief Justice, to the
influence o. his wife. The Washington
correspondent of the st. Louis Republi-
can says: 81 have seen Mrs. Williams.
Therefore am at this time able to ap-
preciate the chivalrous instinct which
prompts our soldier President to make
the confirmation of Williams as Chief
Justice test of feaIty.' Now, there is
not particle of doubt in my mind that
had Col. Susan B. Anthony succeeded
in getting the Constitution amended 80
as to permit women to vote and to hold
Office, the name of Mrs. Williams would
have been sent to the Senate for the
Chief Justiceship, and I am further
convinced that our soldier President
was only forced to accept Williams him.
self as the next best thing, SO to speak,
for the reason that the lady was ineligi-
BILE, and his previous experience in the
case of A. 7. Stewart had taught him
that it was hardly worth while to try to
get the laws changed to make them fit
his appointees.
The writer is unquestionably correct
in his facts, but lame in his conclusions.
There is no doubt that Mrs. Williams
has exercised a powerful influence in
promoting her husbands political for

FLOUR ExPoRTs.-The Oregon Farmer
says: 1--WE learn that r. C. Kinney &
Co. have chartered two vessels, and
want still another, to load at Astoria for
Liverpool. They had concluded char
ter with the captain of the Sovereign of
the Seas, a $500 ton ship, to load at
Astoria, but the owners at Liverpool
would not ratify it. So we came near
having big ship in the Columbia Riv-
er. They are negotiating for one of the
English steamers, which don't find pro-
ftable work in the China trade, to load
with -four to Liverpool. and send her
through the Straits of Magellan home.
We regret that the effort to charter the
Sovereign of the Seas did not succeed,
as she would have taken off large car
go of our surplus flour, and have de-
monstrated the fact that large ships can
enter the Columbia River as well as they
can enter the Golden Gate, or a hun
dred other ports where they now CO."
These facts are very suggestive of the
great mutual advantages to be gained
by railroad connections between both
the Upper and Lower Columbia and
Puget Sound. The mill of Kinney &
Co. is at Salem. They have trans
portation of ITO miles to reach a port of
shipment for foreign trade, requiring
two transhipments. Then they have
only reached a port. the ingress and
egress to which is subject to frequent
delays, always regarded as extra haz-
ardous, and are attended with extraor-
dinary expenses for pilotage and insur-
ance. making it exceedingly difficult to
charter vessels for that trade but at
rates greatly in excess of those required
in the Puget Sound trade, which is not
attended by any such risks or delays,
and is easily and safely accessible to
the largest vessels afoat. With the
railroad connections complete between
Seattle and Salem, Messrs. Kinney could
put their -four on board ship in this
harbor as cheaply as they now put it
on board at Astoria, and make saving
of not less than ten per cent. upon the
rates they now pay for charter and in
surance. A railroad connection between
Puget Sound and the Upper Columbia
will give much greater corresponding
advantages to much larger trade.

I will be at the Railroad Hotel on
Friday, the 9Th, to pay Montgomery's
paper endorsed by Capt. Ainsworth.

This is supposed to mean that the
laborers upon the railroad, who have
been kept out of their pay for months
past, are now to receive their dues, and
this is cause for public congratulation.
not only because it will relieve the dis
tresses of large number who were suf-
fering for the wages which had been
honestly earned by labor, but allays the
desperation which was constantly liable
to incite the most fearful crimes, put
ting in jeopardy the lives and property
of innocent as well as guilty. Z The
Tribune could not announce this fact
without exhibiting its habitual toadyism
to power by characterizing as "Modocs"
the laborers who had been starved to
desperation by Withholding from them
their hard earnings and only means of
support for themselves and helpless
families, forcing them to the last resort
of threats and demonstrations of vic.
lence to recover the bread which had
been snatcned from the mouths of their
starving little ones by combination of
heartless spectators. 1t is no credit to
the railroad managers that these poor
toiling men are to be paid their wages
after so long delay; and instead of add
ing insult to injury, they ought to be
thankful fer the forbearance by which
they have escaped the natural conse-
quences of the great provocation they
have given to lawless violence.

first, whose admirable social qualities
were devoted with rare feminine tact to
making popular interest for her husband
for whose political success her aspira-
tions were much greater that his. Nor
are such cases rare or uncommon. So
far from it, that the exceptional cases
are those of men risen to honorable dis
inction without the aid of woman's
influence. exercised either upon him
self directly, or upon those who have
the power to aid him. This is no argu-
Fment in favor of woman suffrage, or the
political equality of the sexes. She de-
rives her influence from her social, not
her political condition; she holds it by
virtue of her womanhood, in the rela
tons of mother, wife, or sister, and
loses it the moment she claims it by
virtue of her manhood. There is no
thing unfeminine in the female arts and
Establishments by which woman seeks
to elevate the social and political stand
ing of the man with whom her destinies
are united: her devotion gives sacred
character to the veriest clod who may be
the object of them, and wins the respect
of every one capable of chivalrous
sentiment, and she has her full share of
the honors gained by her influence. As
the wife of the Attorney General ranks
her husband in public honors and social
position. As politician. standing upon
her rights as voter, old Susan B. An.
thony, Victoria Woodruff and Mrs.
Dunaway would outrank her; an object
of contempt to all chivalrous men and
of horror to all right~minded mothers of
growing sons and daughters. Every
man of honorable sentiments accords to
women their full share in the direction
of both public and domestic affairs, nor
would deprive them of single right or
privilege which would promote their
own good or the good of society; but
it is fact within the obsel vation of all
that large majority of those women
who have been most eminent for their
public services in raising and educating
men for public service and influencing
their conduct through life, and who
have done most to elevate the tone of
public or private morals, are not among
those who deemed woman suffrage ne-
cessary to the public welfare.

VETERANS OF THE MEXICAN WAR.-A
very large convention of the veterans Of
the Mexican war was held in Washing
ton, Januery 16, 1874. General ]. W.
Denver presided, and General James
Tilton was one of the Vice Presidents;
General J. s. Negley delivered an ora
ton, after which the President ap-
preached to the desk with Gen. Albert
Pike, of the late Conferate army. He
was welcomed most cordially, and Gen.
Denver remarked: d" You all know and
love General Pike. He will read the
poem prepared for the occ. sion:"
Among the distinguished Generals who
took part in the convention, in addition
to those abovenamed, were of the Union
army: Sherman, Mcdowell, German,
Shields, Meredith. Cadwallader. Gray,
and Manson. Of tie Confederate army:
Pillow, Taliafero, Green. and many Off
GERS of lesser grade. The reunion is
reported to have been of the most cor
cial and fraternal character. General
Sherman made speech, at the close of
which he referred to his friends South,
singing out Ex-Governor Herbert, of
Louisiana, saying that he, as citizen
of that State, had the same interest and
feeling that he (Sherman.) citizen of
Ohio, had for his country all the way
through. They met as veterans of tho
war with Mexico, willing and ready to
defend that same old flag which they
had followed from the shores of the
Gulf of Mexico to the halls of the Mon>
tezumas. [Continued applause.
It is an indisputable fact that the
officers of the army and navy are the
best peace men of the country. Had
they the control of the civil government
of the country at the time, there would
have been no civil war, ard had they
the settlement Of the terms of peace at
the close of the war, restoration of the
Union would have been completed to
the satisfaction of all the people of the
country except tho politicians, and years
of time and millions of treasure saved,
which have been expended in expert
menting upon reconstruction.
