THE RAILROAD.

The contracts for furnishing the
ties for the Yaquina railroad have
been let to different persons, who are
now or soon will be engaged in get
ting them ready for delivery. The
survey will soon be sufficiently loca-
ted that large force of men, who
are already engaged and in waiting,
can commence the work of grading.
The iron is on the ocean bound for
Yaauina bay, and thus at the present
writing the most skeptical are forced
to confess that the predictions Of the
GAZETTE are soon to be verified, and
that the highway to the sea is soon
to be made smoothe. We feel that
it would not be inappropriate at this
time to return to Col. Hogs and his
many faithful assistants the thanks of
the people for their efforts in carrying
out an enterprise SO fraught with
good results to every resident of the
Willamette valley.

THE OFFENDING cow.

/ The city of Corvallis on the 16tl
of May last passed an ordinance
which is commonly called the COW
ordinance, although its provisions
apply to almost all kinds of stock
I which is liable to be found running
| at large. Among other things this
remarkable legislative enactment
provides in substance that no cattle
and other stock therein named shall
be permitted to run at large within
the corporate limits of said city be-
tween the hours Of 80 minutes after
sunset of each day and 80 minutes
before sunrise, and if found running
at large the marshall shall place them
securely in a pound and after giving
at least five days notice of the time
and place of sale. shall proceed to sell
the same at public auction to the high
est bidder.
This may be good law in part
and bad as to the rest. So far as 1t
applies to all stock except cows, we
do not now think of any serious OBJ
lection, but from the best knowledge
that we can gain, we understand that
the same was passed more particular
ly to restrain the liberty of town
cows.
An ordirance providing for the
restraining and disposing of any
breachy cows which might be found
rambling around town at unusual
late honrs of the night in order to save
from destruction the gardens and
lawns Of the town, might and no
doubt would be a wise provision.
But while we are aware that the
cows milk, for those who have them,
furnish great portion of a falnily's
living and many children and young
babes are fed almost exclusively on
the milk of the cow, and that many
families are probably able to keep
cow when they could not afford TO
buy the milk from other parties, We
can not see the reason and wisdom
of placing the poor COW under such
unusual restrictions. So that if she
happens to be coming home late she
may be caught up, and if the owrer
is unable to pay the marshal's costs
of keeping her over night, then she
must be sold; thus depriving the un
fortunate party of the much favored
luxury.

The Daily New York Tribune,
-enumerates some of the results of
Guiteau's shot, and among them the
following: Gorham has been more
coarse, brutal and unscrupulous than
any other adherent of Conkling in as
sailing the President. Whether the
President lives or dies, the election
of Gorham as Secretary OF the Senate
has become impossible. Not on ly
tbc.condemnation of Gorham is need
ed, but also the reconsideration of the
case of Virginia, as presented by the
nomination of Riddlel esger in the
State Convention which Malone
easily swayed. iiddleberger made
the only Jealous opposition to the
nominations finally made, and it was
then proved that he did not fairly
represent the wishes of the friends Of
General Malone. There are other
Independents in Virginia and in other
Southern States whose nomination
and support by the Republicans of
the Senate would mean success.

dent may make great difference in
