CRUMBS OF COMFORT.

The Tribune man, who was desirous
of knowing the worst, telegraphed to
Dick Williams. the Congressman.elect
from Oregon, and got the following:
PORTLAND, Nov. Is. P. NJ.
The latest reports received here are
more favorable to Hayes election.
Il. WILLIAMS.
A later dispatch by twenty minutes,
was received from Anthony Noltner,
editor of the Portland Standard, by w.
81. White, our newly elected Prosecut-
ing Attorey:
Tilden will have one hundred and
eighty. four votes. Louisiana. Florida
and South Carolina are reported Demo-
cratic. The only hope for the Radicals
rests in the counting boafds.
The Vernon, dispatch, however. is
the most consoling of all, for it only
goes to show how eager the office
holders were to secure their man. A
better case of "vanlting ambition that
overleaps its mark" was never afforded.
Back dated designations from Federal
papsuckers all over the Union, are now
in order.

OUR CITY TREASURY.

Though it is some time from this date
to the assembling of the Territorial leg
islature, yet We hope to see some prop
er relief made by that body for the
maintenance of this city's municipal
government The outside portion of
the county bears none of the burden.
yet property-owners ard taxpayers
outside the city limits receive great
benefit from the large amount Of lakes
collected in Seattle.
In every Oregon town incorporated
since 1870, tho incorporation act apeci-
fies that all liquor licenses collected
shall be paid into the town treasury in
stead Of the county. This is no more
than proper, for the town has to bear
the burdtu of lighting streets and es-
;ablishins police force, for the preser-
walton of order and security of life and
property. That this expense should be
borne wholly by pro rata taxation OF
citizens property is unjust in every re-
spect. Over $1,000 in liquor licenses
we're collected within city limits dur
ing the past year, of which the city re-
ceived not a dollar but has to pay all
the expense of arresting and keeping
prisoners who commit offenses while
under the effects of liquors sold by per-
mission of the county. Look at that.
We ask Councilman Banford and Re
representatives. Tibbetts and Foster, to
give us such legislation as will give to
the city treasury one-half the amount
collected within the city limits for Il.
quor and beer licenses; also, one-third
of the fines collected III courts of first
instance, for offences committed with
in the city limits. the perpetrators Of
which are arrested by the local police.
The pay of our police is but 800 in
scrip for the chief and $50 for the two
subalterns. This reduces their actual
pay to about $62 and $50 respectively
in coin, which is no compensation for
any efficient officer. The city is heing
greatly improved. at considerable ex-
pense and needs legislation of this kind.
The county renders her no equivalent
for her contribution and the injustice OF
the present system is apparent to all.
We trust that our Representatives and
and Councilman will gives us the desir-
ed relief at the proper time; and till
then We can afford to wait.

CLOSING SCENES.

If the latest reports are reliable, (and
most Of them are lie -able) the Dele
gateship has been lost to the Democracy
by apathy in the Eastern counties Of the
Territory. The dispatches received
here yesterday bring down MIR. JUDI
sons majority in Walla Walla and CO.
lumbia to 321. a falling off of 81 and in
Mason from 185 to 101. All this shows
a foolish anxiety on tho part of both
candidates friends to make big show.
This leads men to bet money under the
undue excitement of the moment and
when the truth comes to be known
courses not loud but deep" are vented
on the heads of those who ''gave 'em
the steer" 1t is high time that men
were learning some sense. If they
would always say SO many votes ahead,
SO far as heard from, the result would
be different financially.
Personally we have very little feeling
in the matter, as both gentlemen are our
PERI onal friends. 1t is our belief that,
had we published the kilograms sent
here as compiled by the Associated
Press agent at Portland and mads our
paper q Democratic vehicle of election
eering for Republicans. Judge Jacobs
would have carried this county by over
one hundred and twenty majority. We
shut off those kilograms just in time.
Mr.. Judson, if defeated, can congratu-
late himself on having made the cheap
est canvass on record and having been
beaten by a very moderate expenditure
of money. If elected. it is triumph Of
GOOD luck, for there was not Il particle
of good management displayed In the
inner workings of his canvass.
Ii cannot be denied that the Repub-
licaps have out-Aanouvred US on all
sides, bu. this is owing greatly 10 the
l,rpe pumber or Federal Cffice holders

industry ~ of the nation-could readi-
ly outwork men Of no experience in
such matters. Colonization and repeat
ing have been resorted to in the horde r
counties and the same element that
defeated Warren in Oregon last year
has been utilized to help elect Williams
in Oregon and Jacobs in tins Territory.
If the official count gives Mr.. Jacobs a
majority Of anything less than hun.
dred, Mr.. Jndson may be able to oust
him on contest; bat if it exceeds that.
it would be folly to attempt it,
, 1876-11-18
WANTED A CONSTITUTION.

The probabilities are that the election
for State Constitution has been car
ried by large majority and the next
thing is, a Convention to frame the
document. Il will be necessary to see
that none but practical men are elected
TO that convention. because there is no.
thing but a Constitution to be drawn.
At the time of Oregon's admission. the
trainers of her Constitution wanted to
do too much and got things into the
document that should have been pro-
perly reserved for code. This has
subsequently acted as great barrier to
legislation made necessary by the growth
and augmented wealth of the State. Let
us eudeavor 10 profit by their errors.
We favor one clause prohibiting the
creation of any debt by the State for
internal improvements; but are in favor
Of one allowing counties to aid in the
construction of railroads to a limited
extent, say, issuance of ten thousand
dollars worth of bonds for every million
of dollars worth of taxable property
over one million and rot to exceed five
million. This would effectuslly pro-
hibit the issuance Of mole than forty
thousand dollars of bonds, even if the
county had seventeen millions of pro-
perty. Another prohibition We should
favor would be the locating of all the
State buildings at the capital. The
State House and Supreme Court she
would be entitled to- The Penitentiary,
State Normal School, Agricultural Coll
lege, Insane Asylum and other institu-
tions shorld be distributed evenly and
fairly to other leading cities.
We favor clause making education
compulsory. as it is cheaper to keep
boys in school than men in Jail. And
We are also opposed to legislation on
usury. believing that money (iAe every
other article of commerce) must be reg
ulated by the law of supply and de-
mand. You can find Oregon mems
mortgages in every county in Califor-
MIA. having been compelled to seek new
markets for their means, owing to inju-
dicious legislation at home. But We
say legalize interest at eight per cent.
per year and let it go at that on all ac-
cruing debts.
We also favor fair salaries for all
State officers and compel them to pay
all fees received into the State Treasury
under oath. The Governor Of Oregon
receives but $500 per year, which
should be $4,000; the Secretary of State
receives $500 and the Treasurer $500. |
During the four years from 1870 TO 1874,
the State Treasurer of Oregon made
made $4,000 in coal lands in Coos |
county alone. which he never could |
have acquired but for his er-oticio posi-
ton as School Land Commissioner. |
So we favor State Land Office with a
Surveyor General at the head it. Our |
idea is, liberal salaries and no fees. |
We shall refer to this subject again.

DIRECT NAIL NEEDED,

Our delegate in Congress should leave
no stone untlrned on his return there,
to obtain a weekly mail route from this
city via Snoqualmie Pass to Yakima
City. The business interests of the two
localities are intimately connected, as
We receive nearly all our supplies of
cattle. sheep and hogs, from that quar-
ter. In fact, nearly all the ready money
which goes into the Yakima country is
what goes from here. They have to
take goods for all the produce they sell
there, at just such prices as merchants
choose to charge them; and there is no
prospec: of their having q chance to
better themselves till the railroad from
the Sound relieves their wants. But
the establishment of q mail route
through the valliss of Kittitas and Yak
ina, would be the means of settling up
every available point along the road
with people who could sell most of
their stuff to the mail contractors.
For at least four months in the year,
and perhaps longer. the mail would
have to be carried on horseback, but as
the country settled up the service would
be increased till finally it would become
a daily route. It would cause the build
ing of all the stations along the route
and general clearing of the trail, till
finally good wagon road would be
made. This is bard to accomplish when
all the people are at the ends of the
route and none in the middle; but when
settlers become distributed along the
route, then the road is much more east
ly kept in repair. Stations at intervals
of every twelve miles will be necessary
and these will enable drovers to rest
their sheep and cattle along the road
and feed them as they rest. Every
available nook will be cultivated as ;, on
as it is known that the routs is estuu-
lished.
At present. tie mails for Yakima and
most of the business travel (outside of
stock drovers) has to pay $40 by steam
or and rail to Portland, thence $40 to
Wallula and then comes stage fare to
Yakima. The establishment of such
route as we ask would enable stage to
carry passengers seven months in year
for $13 from Seattle to Yakima city,
saving of at least ten dollars on every
head. The route Is a total distance of
100 miles to Ellensburg and 26 Lilies
further to Yakima City. As there are
already mail facilities between those
two points. a route from here to El;ens-
burg would satisfy all present demands.
Will Judge jacobs give this matter his
attention We pause for reply.
, 1876-11-18

The very latest indications are that

The man who caused Boss Twoed's
arrest in Spain, en charge Of being q
comprochico, or kidnapper of children,
must have removed to Victoria. We
see that some man there bet $40 that
Theodore Tilton would be the next Pre-
sident. In our opinion he could not
lose such bet, not having any chance
to win it.

The latest from California denotes an
extraordinary retrograde in majorities
tor Hayes. Money has carried all the
larger cities for him, but the interior of
the State is largely Democratic. Mon
day at noon, Hayes was less than 800
ahead of Tiden. Pscheco, whose bar
gain and sale to Stanford, caused poor
Burnett to be taken from a dea.hbed to
save the Southern counties from bank
ruptcy, is probably beaten by Wiggin-
ton and Luttrell is safe.

There seems to be singular calm af-
ter the great storm over the Presiden-
tial election. A contemporary says that
''great disasters would attend the elecs
ton of Tilden." The creates: disaster
attending it would be the throwing out
of employment of the ninety thousand
Office holders who have been fattening
off the public treasury for the last sixteen
years. Hard work won't agree with
them, yon know.
