The Oregon Vote.

Last Saturday the Electoral Com
mission decided the Oregon case in favor
of the Republican Electors. The fol-
lowing are the grounds of the decision
as given in the dispatches to the Ore
gonldn last Monday:
The Republican Electors appear to
have been lawfully appointed, and they
voted as such at the time and in the
manner provided for by the constitution
of the United States and the law; and
the commission are further of opinion
that by the laws of Oregon the duty of
the canvass of all the votes given at
| the election of Preddent and Vice Pres
ident was imposed upon the secretary
of state, and that the secretary of state
did canvass these returns, and ascer-
tanned that j. &. Cartwright, w. II.
Odell and J. w. Watts received a ma
jority of all the votes for electors, and
the highest number of votos for that o..
flee; and by the expressed language of
the statute those persons are deemed
elected. That in obedience 10 his duty
the secretary Of state made a canvass
and tabulated statement of the votes
showing this result, which, according to
law, he placed on file in his office on
the 4th OF December, 1876. All this
appears by the official certificates, under
seal OF the secretary of state, and was
signed and delivered by him to the elec-
tors, and forwarded by them to the
president of the Senate, with other
States. That refusal or failure of the
governor OF Oregon to sign the certificate
of election of persons so elected does
not have the effect of defeating their ap-
pointment for such electors. Thet the
act OF the governor of Oregon in giving
to 4. A. Crouin a certificate of election,
though he received one thousand votes
less than j. w. Watts, on the ground
the latter was ineligible, was without
authority OF law and therefore void.
That although evidence shows Watts
was postmaster at the time of his elec-
ton, that fact is rendered immaterial by
his resignation both as postmaster and
elector, and his subsequent appointment
to fill the vacancy in the Electoral Col
lege; that in consequence of the torego-
ing, and upon grounds before stated,
the paper purporting TO be the certif-
cate of the electoral vote of Oregon,
signed by +. A. Cronin, ]. n. Il. Mil
Ter and John Parker, is not the certifi-
cate OF the votes provided for by the
Constitution of the United States, and
ought not TO be counted AS such. The
members of the Commission agreeing to
and approving of the decision are Sam'l
+. Miller, Joseph p. Bradley, w.
Strong, Geo. f. Edmnnds, 0. p. Nor
ton, +. I. Frelinghuysen, Jas. A. Gar
field and Geo. +. Hoar.

Senator Booth and the Railroad
MOnOpOlies.

The railroad funding bills, lately
before the Z. S. Senate, have been
the means of putting few of our Pa
cltlc coast Senators upon the record
on the great question involved i'll the
war between the people and the rail
road monopolies. Senator Booth, of
California, has secured the passage in
the Senate of an amendment to the
Gordon bill, providing that each OF
the two principal railroad companies
(the Central Pacific and the Union
Pacifc) Shall pay annually in service
and cash about S1,250,000 into the
sinking fund, instead of $t50,000, as
provided in the bill. His speech ad-
vocating the amendment is described
as one of the best of his life. Booth
and Jones, of Nevada, were the only
Pacific coast Senators who voted
against the monopolies. Mitchell
voted in the railroad interest. Kelly,
Sargent and Sharon were absent, and
so failed to put themselves upon rec
ord. Senator Booth is an able and
far-seeing statesman, and possess that
rare quality of ambition not altogeth-
er begotten in the desire for sordid
gains. Of strong mental power and
keen intellectual foresight, he prefers
to win laurels in those higher fields
where civil promotion is attained as
the reward of true merit, than for q
little temporary aggrandizement tc
sell his soul to the highest bidder
Let the country honor him as he de-
serves

Potato Growing.

The following is the way writer in
the Willamette Farmer advises potato
growers to manage their potato crops
Now, for the growing of potatoes'
my plan is this: Plow the ground in
early Spring as soon as the ground can
be worked, then LET it be until about the
middle OF the month of May, then plow
it again deep and cultivate it thor
oughly, n dry weather ifpossible
then mark out the ground and plant
the potatoes. Now let it be until the
potatoes s-e most ready to come up,
then rrow the ground thoroughly in
dry, hot weather, if you can get it;
then, as soon as the potato tops are
large enough to be worked, begin with
a one-horse plow, plowing shallow and
throwing the dirt away from the row, so
as not to cover up the potato tops, and
by the time they need wo king again
you can plow deep with shovel pIow,
aud plow often during the dry season,
and you will have pototoes of the largest
size if your land is rich and the season
is tair. A potato crop is one of the
easiest grown and the best for summer

continue to send it until payment is made, and
then collect the whole amount, whether the

g. The courts have decided that refusing to

travelled last year. When Wards cut
off from Hat creek, via Old Woman's
Fork to Pleasant Valley is completed,
land he is under contract to have the
road ready for travel by March 31st,)
this route will be shortened yer sixty
miles. The stage stations will be trans
ferred to the new road, and the dis
lance to be Travelled by the Cheyenne

reduced to 230 miles.

THE A HILLS.
Facts of Interest to Those Who
Are Going There.
Cheyenne as the Great Quitting Point.

In answer to the many communica.
tons which we receive daily, we have
compiled the following budget of infor-
nation, for the benefit of all those who
are afflicted with the Black Hills fever.
While it is not as complete a we
might desire and promise to make it,
we think it will answer most of the
questions asked. The first query pro-
pounded is whether we really believe
there is gold in the Black Hills. This
has been too well proven to admit of
doubt. Good judges who have the
means of knowing, estimate the amount
of gold brought from the Hills during
the year 1876, at a million and a half OF
dollars; a. much more remains undoubt-
ly in the hands of miners and merchants
in the several settlements; for it is only
recently that the Cheyenne and Black
Hills Stage company has commenced
to carry gold dust with a guarantee of
| safe delivery.
Gold is found in paying quantities in
nearly all the mining districts opened.
The richest discoveries in placer and
quartz mining have, however, been
made on Deadwood and Whitewood
creeks, and along these creeks cluster
the principal mining towns in the Black
Hills.
Owing to the hostility of the Indians
the mountain ranges west and north of
Deadwood received last year but lit
tie attention from the prospector; but
it is known that that section also
abounds in gold and silver, which dur
ing the present year will be brought to
light by the hardy miner.
How to Reach the Black Hills.
Without decrying any of the propos-
ed routes from points on the Upper
Missouri river, we assert that the route
from Cheyenne northward is the safest,
speediest, cheapest and best to reach the
Black Hills. Cheyenne is at the juno
ton of the two competing railroads from
the East-the Union Pacific and Kan
sas Pacific. 1t will be two days. rail-
road travel to Cheyenne from Chicago
or st. Louis. The following table will
show the distance and present rate of
fare from these two points to Cheyenne:

We are credibly informed by the rep
resentatives of these two railroad COM
panies, that special rates will be given
from Chicago to Cheyenne, to Black
Hills parties, which will be at least one
third less than the above rates.

From Cheyenne to the Black Hills

IN from Sueyenue TO tnc BLACK k1lib.
U A fine natural road, wei which the
United States mails have been carried
for many years, leads from Cheyenne
to Fort Laramie, a distance of ninety
miles. This route passes through a
settled country, and good ranches are
found at convenient distances from
each other. From Fort Laramie to
Custer and Deadwood City a good wag-
on road is found, which has recently
been shortened by our county officers,
thus reducing the distance necessary to
be travelled by freight teams over sixty
miles. The whole distance from Chey-
enne to Deadwood over thisroadis about
two hundred and thirty miles. The
Cheyenne and Black Hills Stage CON-
pany, Luke VOORHEES,, superintendent,
