Poor Soil for Independent Seed.

After careful survey of the field,
we are inclined to hazard the opinion
that the Independent movement in
Oregon is thing of slow motion, and
will be shut out in the race. There
appears to be but two parties in our
neighboring State - Democrats and
Republicans. Each has it's soreheads,
it's disappointed aspirants, it's repud-
lated leaders, and its dissatisfied men,
bers, but they aggregate so much like
a mustard seed or homeopathic pill,
that they will scarcely create a di-
version in the grand tournament to
come off in June. The masses of the
two old organizations are slow about
putting off the old love, and manifest
decided preference for the split-hoof
they know over the split-hoof they
don't know. They can see nothing in
the platform of the new party that
they have not seen in those Of their
own conventions time out of mind.
The Democratic party of Oregon is not
so oderous' in the nostris of the
people as it became in this State some
years ago. 1t has had ADLER, perhaps
more honest, leaders than the DEM
ocracy of California, and has thus far
escaped with q reputation something
above that of a San Francisco ward
politician. Senator MITCHELL, nee
HIPPEL, has dealt the Republican or
ganization of Oregon some assassin
Los Angeles daily herald., 1874-05-09

THE general reader is led to believe
that each of the San Francisco papers
has special reporter with VAsQUEz,
and also with his pursuers. Every
movement of the bandit is faithfully
recorded, and with elaborate COM
ments, wise conjectures, and serious
intlmations sufficient to fill up col
umn or more, telegraphed by "our
special correspondent with VAsoUEz. y
Those with Sheriffs MORSE and Gun
NINGHAM, the bandits pursuers, are
alike industrious, elaborate and wise.
Is it not about time the publishers of
these papers realized the fact that they
are not humbugging the people?-that
everybody understands these reports
to be made up without regard to truth;
and that not newspaper, or its cor
respondent, possesses the slightest
knowledge of VASQUEz or his move
ments, while their information in re-
gard to the operations of the officers is
Of the vaguest character? The ac-
counts published in San Francisco are
all sensation and bosh, containing but
little sense and no truth.

Something to Guard Against.

The Grange movement has done
much, and will do more, to free the
farmer from the extortions of a certain
class of middle-men; but in avoiding
one rock there is danger of running on
another. Economy has been marked
feature of the Grange thus far, and it is
not probable the principle will be de-
parted from to great extent for some
time to come. Yet the farmers must
have agencies and depots, and the spec
of danger which now appears above
the horizon ofthe future is, that agents
may become mddle-men as objection
able and expensive as those the farm
ers have deposed. To avoid this pos
sible danger, none but men of we'll
known integrity and tried experience
should be entrusted with this most i'm
portant branch of the Grange bust
ness. The fact that the agents are but
agents, and almost entirely dependent
upon those for whom they act for,
success, will induce honorable action.
Still, it is well to guard against the
chance of growing new dragon from
the body of the one just slain.
Los Angeles daily herald., 1874-05-09

OUR evening contemporary, the Er-
press, is apprehensive of raid on the
city by VAsQUEZ and his band. We
have no doubt but that the bandit
might come in here and make things
lively for few minutes but the
chances against his doing so are about
million to one. VAsQUN does not
kill people for the mere love of blood
money is his object. He might ride
through Main street at noon
day and kill forty people. He might
perform the same feat in Montgomery
street, but in either case he would run
great risk, shed great deal of blood,
and secure but little booty, If he
should come in here in the night, he
would find the money vaults securely
locked, leaving but poor picking for
band of robbers. On the whole, there
is no more occasion to fear the appear
ance of VAsQUEZ in our streets, with
hostile intent, than to fear the coming
of a first-class earthquake or the crack
of doom.

THE political arena is a sort of melo-
dramatic field, more particularly to
the defeated candidates; but the deter
mination of ADoLPH SUTRo to oppose
the Senatorial claims of WILLIAM
SHARON in Nevada will, if he adheres
to his purpose, reduce the contest in
that State to the level of broad farce.
SUTRO has some reputation as a tunnel
manipulation, out when he tackles the
willy WILLIAM in political tussle, he
will find himself ON mis- back before he
has had time to make his first pass.
SHARON owns more property in Ne
vada than any other one man in the
State, and if man who looks out for
his own interests will make good
Senator, SHARON, who is withal an in
telligent, we'll informed, shrewd busi-
enss man, will do his duty as Nevada's
State Senator.

SACRAMENTO, Cal, May s, 1874.
EDITOR Los ANGELES HERALD =
Reward of eight thousand dollars of
fered for Vasquez alive, or six thous-
and dollars for him dead.
NEWTON BOOTH.
This is a step in the right direction,
and will capture or drive the bandit
from the country in very short time.
Much credit is due Governor BOOTH
for offering this large reward, in such
q shape that there will be no question
about its payment to those who earn it.

THE stakes for the Truxton Railroad
are planted, and negotiations for grad
ing the road-bed are progressing. We
learn from semi-official source that
it is the intention of the company to
push the work ahead as rapidly as
possible until completed. It will not
be many months before Los Angeles
will have two railroads to the sea, two
harbors and two points for embarking
and debarking passengers and freight.
The improvements in Wilmington
harbor are going ahead rapidly, and
plans for making it a safe and commo-
dious anchorage are developing every
day. Truxton will aid Wilmington in
the good work she has so long prose-
cuted : the development of the Los
Angeles Valley.

Congress After the Pacific Railroads.
WASHINGTON, May S.-The House
Committee on the Pacific railroads to-

mend the passage of the bill directing
the Secretary of the Treasury to de-
mand from each of the Pacific Rail-
road Companies the immediate pay
ment of five per cent. per annum
of their respective net receipts, re-
CURED by law to be paid over to the
Government, and applied to the
liquidation of interest on their bonds.
The bill will also contain a provision
directing the Attorney General to
commence proceedings to enforce pay
ment of this five per cent. in case the
demand ofSecretary of the Treasury is
not complied with. The legislation of
the last Congress merely authorized
the Acknowledgement to commence
such proceedings. This bill proposes
to enact positive requirement to effect
that object.

THE prospects of the Cerro Gordo
narrow gauge road brightens day by

their approval of the enterprise, and
almost all are anxious to become
stockholders. Our leading business

should be, is consummation devoutly

unites in determination to do q
thing, it is safe to say the work will
be we'll and quickly done.

are, however, free to confess that if
any man in the world could inspire a

the editor of the Post is that man.

CHICAGO, May S.-A Washington
special says Thurman dug out several
important facts during his cross exam
inatiOn of Governor Shepherd and
others; amolg them that the District
Government, since its organization
has run in debt 81 100000 over all the
appropriations made by Congress.
Among some of the extraordinary
items of expenditure were $4,000 for
keeping in repair the old town pumps;
another of 100000 for cleaning the
streets and alleys; another of $3.50, 1000
was paid for advertising in official
newspapers. In the first year of the
organization of the Board of Public
Works the Chronicle got S25, 200; the
Republican got $25, 1000, and the Fee
ming Star $4,000. The remainder was
divided among some twenty publica-
tons in this city and Philadelphia.

with an occasional exception, and now
these rogues are empowered to repeat this
plundering, on the false plea of detecting,
arrcsting, and Furnishing criminals, who
are aubiect only to the jurisdiction Of the
States where the offences were committed.
This whole business isan clectionccring
scheme, and the trouble in Louisiana was
started by Kellogg's vile emissaries, with
tho express purpose Of provoking difficulty,
IN order to furnish an occasion for calling
in the military. That the Attorney Gen
eral was a party to this doyiItry will
hardly be disputed by those who have
watched his Inscriptions course, who have
seen him scorned even by his own party,
who know him to be essentially corrupt,
and who have no faith in his public or
personal integrity where tho last interest
is involved. He is worth to be the
expounder of Grantism, and a fit tool for
all its enormities
