Our Ship Building interests.

Our ship building interests can hope
for no relief from the present Congress
until the newly elected members are
sworn in, The following is what Con-
gresham Page says in reference to the
subject:
chairman Page, of the commerce
committee, says that when the bill for
the revival Of American shipping comes
up in the House it will undoubtedly
be passed, as reported by the select
committee. He says the House will
not agree to the free ships and free ma
terials of the minority committee. It
might as well agree to abolish the en-
tire tariff list. He thinks the commit
tee went as far in this direction as was
advisable. Of the bill reported from
the committee he says it was pretty
good job The committee, in framing
| it, had consulted the iron interests, the
i
shipping interests and the ship owning
interests, al combined, for the revival
of American shipping"
The present unequal and unjust tar
if destroyed our ship building interests
to such an extent that scarcely an
American hull of even a second class
vessel floats on the briny ocean, and
we arc forced to call upon the mari
ners .cf other nations to carry our pro-
duce to the markets of the world,
whilst our forests of the finest timber
are left to decay or the ravages Of the
fire fend. This state of facts have
long existed, not only to the shame of
our nation but to the material detri-
ment Of the great farming interests of
our people. Under these conditions a
lfew monied aristocrats in each of the
numerous ports along our boundless
sea coast are enabled to charter this
foreign feet and by combinations, as is
the case on this coast, to hold them at
their own figures. Thus a very few
|monepolists are enabled to regulate and
control the price of farm produce o
! the entire country.

Effective Jetties.

Captain Chas. +. Powell, U. 8. on
gineeE, returned recently from q tour of
iaspectien Of the government works at
Coos Bay and the mouth of the Co
quills. He reports that notwithstand-
Ing the severe winter season, work has
continued without serious interruption
st both improvements. At tie mouth
Of the Csquille the influence of short
and incomplete jetty has been beneficial
IN most marked degree. Formerly
the channel, on the south side Of the en-
trance, was tortuous, and ran through i
pest Of rocks. So near were these
recks to the channel that vessels enter
ing or leaving had to remove their jill
bOens. A wall Of stone running out
from the main shore was built, and it
detected the ebb currents to the oppo-
site side Of the entrance, which is free
from rocks. An increased depth Of
eve feet has been secured, and where
the south channel was two years ago,
thers il now solid ground, above high
water mark, washed in BY the action Of
tie sea. The results, though plainly
showing the efficiency Of the jetty, are
net 80 great as they certainly will be
when the work is finished. Cost Of tlfe
work no far done is less than eight per
cent. of the estimate Of the work when
completed.
AT Coos Bay the channel has been
Improved by the jetty, ID that it is deep

and it appears that the Improvement i,

The Coos Bay Railroad.

1t is quite fashionable with certain
ring in this State to sneer at the pros
pect of building railroad from Rose
burg to Coos Bay. They have de-
nounced the scheme as visionary and
have asserted that no capitalists would
take hold It, It Is with pleasure
therefore, that we copy the following
article from the San Francisco Alta of
Dec. 18th:
'.Under the name of the Oregon
Southern Railway and Transportation
Company, a corporation is now forming
in this city to build railroad from
Coos Bay to Roseburg, and also to run
a steamer between the aforementioned
point and San Flancis.o. The pro-
posed road would be about ninety miles
in length; would pass through a num-
Der of rich valleys and connect the on
ly good harbor on the Oregon coast
south of the Columbia river with the
principal distributing point for South
western Oregon, viz Roseburg It is
believed that the initiation of this
enterprise would divert large part of
the trade of Southern Oregon to San
Francisco, which is good reason why
it should receive attention here. By
the route proposed the road would
start at deep water on Coos Bay, be
carried south-easterly to the Coquille
river, thence along that stream to Myr-
tie Point, and following the Middle
Fork, pass through Camas, Ten Mile,
Looking-glass and Umpqua Valleys in
Douglas county, to Roseburg. Coos
county has been fayorably known for
its lumber and coal products, but its
agricultural capacities are also large,
though undeveloped. There is popu.
lation of 5000 in the county at the pres
ent time, but most of the land is yet
unsettled and covered by the primeval
forest. Work is now in progress un-
der charge Of United States engineers
TO improve the bar at the mouth of
Coos Bay, the minimum depth of water
the past season having been eighteor
feet. 4 large part of the business o
the railroad, if built, would come from
the vast coal fields in that part of tn,
State. These fields cover hundreds 0
: square miles, and contain veins.of mer
! chantable coal from three to fve fee
thick.

profits are not SO large. When the en-
trance shall have been improved SO that
vessels Of deeper draught may enter, a
large and profitable trade must spring
up: Two vessels have recently been
launched on the river, the Nora Har-
kins, built at Parkersburg, and owned
by Capt. Harkins, and another at the
Myrtle Grove sawmill The former is
small but staunch and finely modelled
craft and will Immediately enter the San
Francisco lumber trade. One or two
vessels are on the stocks all the time,
and there is active business life in
every quarter.

CIVIL SERVICE BILL.


The Republican press is greatly in
sesfsed at some Of the Democratic mem
bers Of Congress in their disapproval OF
Senator Pendleton's civil service bill,
and charge that their hope of electing
the President will not allow any civil
service rule to interfere with their
distribution Of the Offices Would not
the charge be equally applicable to the
stalwart organs that the certainty of
their losing the next Presidential cleo
ton and the public Offices has worked
the change Of continent in the same
journals and causes them at this late
day to manifest anxiety for the passage
Of law which they and their party
have persistently opposed and defeated
fer sixteen long years
If the law as contained III Pendle-
tens bill is good one it ought to pass,
and if it should fail to become the law
the Republicans and not the Demo
cratic party will be held responsible for
its defeat, for it must be remembered
that both at the last session, when the
bill was introduced, and at this session
81 Congress they have had majority
in each house and could at any time
have passed the bill, if so inclined.
The appointing power rightfully be
longs to the executive, and it is only al
abuse of the privilege that can excite
any apprehension Of danger in the
minds of the people or call for ar
abridgnent Of the power. Any laN
which assumes to take the power from
the President and transfer it to any
ether department Of the government il
revolution in itself, and fraught with
mere danger to the people than any
abuse of the pri vilegesby the executive
It will be remembered that upon The
death Of President Lincoln and the &C
eessien Of President johnson; when he
declared his policy in reference to th'
RoverAmsRt of the late Confederate
Ststes, wAieA was at variance with tn.
HehsY Of Congress, that they abridged
iAs privilege to auch an extent that i
ssnplstely crippled the powers ana
abridged the duties of the executive tt
such an extent that it led to an opel
rupture between the President AM
Congress. It will also be remembered
sbes upon the Inauguration of Presiden
Grant the barriers were all swept ava,
--annulled or repealed. It was onl.
the frauds perpetrated by the band o
thieves with which he surrounded him
self that led to the agitation Of the re
Term measures, and yet but little if an,
relief has been obtained. Each sue

C~ovington boys are no brighter thar
the Young Americans on this side o.
the river, aud their lives are no more
precious and promising. Coyingtou
has taken = decided stand Against the
sale of one of the most formidable o.
deaths allies. VIII the Cincinnati
fathers follow suit2 Boston, alarmed
over the lock jaw mortality Of twenty
since July 4th, has enacted the iol'
lowing:
"Section l. No person shall sell to
any child under the age OF sixteen
wears. without the written consent Of
a parent or guardian Of such child,
any cartridge OF fixed ammunition OF
which any illuminate is 3 component
part, or any gun, pistol or other me
chanical Continuance arranged for the
explosion Of such cartridges or fulml-
nate.
"Sec. 9. Any person violating the
provisions OF the foregoing section
shall be liable to a penalty Of not ex-
deciding $50.
"Sec. 3. In every license granted Tor
the sale Of gunpowder the above sec
tions shall be inserted.
No ordinance less radical than the
foregoing should become a law in this
city. Anxious fathers and mothers
would indorse an ordinance twice as
strong.

The Nashville American has
changed hands and editors. Hon,
Duncan f. Cooper, of CoIumbia bought
a majority Of the stock, and it is un-
derstood, or at least rumored that Mr.,
Baskette, of Murfreesboro, a compo-
tent journalist and educated gentle
man, will take the helm as political
writer. The Chattanooga Times Of
yesterday gives him the following com
~plimentary notice:
II rave us pleasure to learn that
Mr.. G. H. Baskette, of Murfreesborr,
will take charge of the political de
partment Of the Nashville American

and adaptability to the profession. II
he does not make his mark in the
wider fields to which he has been
called, we shall be disappointed, Nh.
