TME OREGON suORT LINE COMING
To SEATTLE.

II never rains bat it pours. Seattle
has today one line of railroad, only ~
miles long to be sure, but the hardest
worked and most profitable y miles OF
railroad on the Pacific Slope.11 But it
has other roads in prospect, one of
which is now at work in our county,
building into our city a. hard and fast
rs it can, which road will open up to as
a new mineral and agricultural region,
and give rs direct connection with the
Northern Pacific, and make this city
one Of the terminal points of that great
railroad system. We have other roads
projected to Gray's Harbor, TO Baker
City, and to New Westminster and Bur-
rard Inlet, all three Of which viii prob
ably be under way before the expira-
ton of the current year. And not only
these, bat We may include the Oregon
Short Line, q road Of a thousand miles
in length, exte nding from the line Of
the Union Pacific in Wyoming, and to
terminate ON Puget Sound, in the city
OF Seattle. In this connection We here
with give space to the telegram follow
ing:
BAKKR CrrY, Or, Jan. 12.-It is learned
this evening, from reliable source,
that four parties of engineers and sur
veyors started from Weiser City in the
interest of the Oregon Short Line, to
survey route, il possible, suitable for
a railroad ON the north side of Snake
River, from Weieer City to Lewiston,
thence TO the Sound. The engineers
have orders to push matters, and if a
suitable route can be found, the Oregon
Short Line will net be built to Baker,
but to Lewiston, thence to the Sound,
making Seattle the terminus of that
line.
| IL that is taken az the route, Baker
City will be at least fifty miles from the
Oregon Short Line. Contractors are
now here procuring supplies for the en-
gineers, and if they report favorably for
| the graders. The contractors leave here
| for Lewiston in the morning 70 see after
supplies in case the road il built that
way.
This last report is the bsst We have
had for long time, but it only corrob-
crates what We have hopefully and re-
peatediy predicted in the past. We are
not in the booming business, and We are
not publishing this with the view of ex-
citing anyone; still, il those who have
here waited long and patiently choose to
throw up their hats and shout little at
the bright prospect before them, We will
be the last to offer OBJ ection.

HAWAIIAN REClPxoCsTY.

In a recent editorial the New York
World took about the right view of the
reciprocity treaty Of which we have
heard so much of late. II said that in
the matter of the Sandwich Islands
treaty, it would obviously be very in
convenient, ~ we'll as very silly, for
the House TO advise the abrogstion of a
treaty which the President is convinced
should not be abrogated. Congress has
neither the power nor the right to COM
pei tho President to abrogate a treaty.
As the Sandwich Islands treaty relates
to revenue the House has a right res
pcctfully to invite the President to give
the House his views, and even those
views, If President Arthur has any views
on the subject, he may in certain cir
oumstances refuse to give to the House.
The Sandwich Islands treaty is q rsci-
procity treaty, under which, in consid-
Grafton of the admission into those isl
ands of a large list Of American pro-
ducts free Of duty, the United States
promises to admit Sandwich Islands
sugar free Of duty into our ports. If
any average Republican member of
Congress, not being interested in the
sugar lobby, will consult any good atlas
and see how plainly thirteen islands of
the kinOd0m NJ Hawaii liza in the tract
of British commerce between the 18TH
mus Of Central America and China, and
will then consider what is now going on
in Downing street, London. about those
perhaps he will perceive that
there 10 something in our diplomatic re-
lations with the King of the Hawaiian
Islands quite as important as the sugar
lobby. The imports into those islands
now amount to more than t5,0O0,OOO
