If free trade is so advantageous to
everybody why don't the Oregonion,
the free trade champion, allow all the
other newspapers of Portland to have
free access to the associated press dis
patches? It's a poor argument that

ter. If the Oregonidn should have
protection in this why should not
eastern manufacturers have protection

Indications of a revival of railroad

Indications of a revival of railroad
manufacturing industries appear. A
gentleman acting as agent for south

for five thousand tons of rails and not
one of the mills would bid. Each and
all declared they were full of orders
months ahead. Some of them until
February could not consider his offer
at all. He says this was the tenor of
replies received from every rolling
mill east.

Last week was commenced the sur

instruments, of the Astoria and Win
nemucca railroad. Whether it will
ever reach the latter point is matter
of grave doubt, but that the road

BILE to Forest Grove, or better still to
Portland, is something that no person
can fail to see the Importance of.

The English are not secure in their

THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER IL, 1879.
Maine and California Elections.

The California election on Sept. Sd
resulted in a substantial victory for
the republicans, they having elected
all four congressman, and are pretty
sure of a majority in the legislature.
The judicial and minor officers were
many of them on all tickets. Perkins
for governor will have plurality of
about 10000, and the other republican
candidates for state officers about the
same. In San Francisco the Kearney
party elects about two-fifths of the Of
ficers, and the republicans the Others.
One notable fact is that the democracy,
which allowed the party to be split
by opposing factions, does not elect n
single officer of Importance in the en-
