BosE AND BALDERpAsa.

If there was lacking any testimony as to
the Democratic party being hopelessly
Bourbonized, it has been afforded by the
speech OF Mr.. Payne. He did not speak
unwittiDgly. He knew precisely what he
was about when he denounced the civil
service reform law, and declared that it
must be repealed. We submit, was there
ever, can there ever be, grosser appeal to
the baser elements in politics than his de-
claration that the only way to save the ma
ton from absolute ruin is to turn "all
Republicans out and put Democrats in ?
We submit that no more sickening and
meaningless campaign b2sh was ever voiced
by a man claiming to have ordinary sense,
than that uttered by United States Senator
elect Payne, when he declared with
assumed gravity that the public service
-" is fetid mass, permeated with rotten.
ness and gangrene." Does Mr.. Payne
really believe that anybody with an ounce
of brains will believe him, or estimate such
balderdash at any other than it's true

THE INTERESTS CT NORTHERN CALI
FoRNIA IN JEOPARDY.

In the Senate, on tire It'll instant, Sena-
tor Miller presented a protest from the
Sacramento Board of Trade against the
forfeiture of the land grant of the Califor-
MIA and Oregon Railroad. Sacramento
Marysville and other towns in Northern
California protest against the proposed
land grant forfeiture for good. though
more or less selfish, reasons. The COM
merce of Northern California will suffer
material loss by defeating early railroad
connection with the Northern Pacific Rail-
road. The purpose of the Government
was to aid and encourage commercial en-
terprises, not to thwart them and if Con-
gress, in its attempt to take the proposed
land subsidy from the California and Ore
gon and Oregon and California Railroads,
under the belief that it is assisting the
people, it will lie laboring under grave er.
ror. Congress, by taking away the grant,
will unknowingly act the part OF the dog
in the maneer. 1t will not build the rail.
road nor let any one else doit. II the rail-
roads are built, an immense area of agri-
cultural, timber and mineral lands will
be opened up to settlement. If the two
railroads are not connected, because of
the withdrawal of the land grants, then
the country through WHICH III WOulu pass
will remain forever uninhabited, unim-
proved, and terra incoglitG. The COM
pletion of the railroads must result to the
benefit of the people. Thousands of set
tiers who are looking for homes viii find
them along the line Of these two railroads
when completed. But if work is suspended
no man would accept farm in that will
derness as a gift Therefore it ia evident
that Congress by taking away the lands
promised to the railroads will lnjure Cali
fornia, as vel as rob settlers of good
home, because within reach of market.
The corporation railroad interests are
nothing to them. They are working for
their own personal gains. The people are
indifferent whether the land grant will aid
Stanford & Co. or net. Bot they are anx.
ious that the railroad shall be completed to
Portland and Puget Sound, because, and
and only because, it will aid in the devel-
opment of northern California and afford
assis lance to State commerce, give work to
the laborer, provide homesteads for the i'm
migrant farmers, increase the population
and add to the wealth of California. III Ma

THE CALIFORNIA AND OREGON LAND
GRANT

When all San Francisco was fighting the
acquisition Of Goat Island by the railroad
company, we said it was mistake for San
Francisco, whatever it might be for the
balance of the State. Who is there that
does not see that now? Many men saw it
then who were afraid 70 say it. There
would have been no Port Costa, no ware.
houses lining the bay, had San Francisco
permitted terminus to be made within
the city limits. We have often said that
the interests of San Francisco and the in
terests of the Central Pacific we're so init
mately interviewer that the one could not
be hurt without hurting the other. San
Francisco cannot be hurt without hurting
the State. We do not mean by this that
railroad pay taxes, should not seek to take
control of the matter Of charges for bust
ness done, but when it comes to conflict
with any other company not having ter
minus in San Francisco, there is no doubt
about the position the people of that city
ought to occupy. It is prepared to forfeit
the land grant to the California and Ore
gon Railroad, and, as we have said, the
Democratic House will not be outdone by
the Republican Senate, and the Re-
publican Senate will not be outdone
by the Democratic House, and any
measure of that kind is likely to
pass. The land above the present termi.
nus, twenty miles beyond Redding, is not
of much value unless the road is built. 1t
is admitted to be the most difficult piece of
road on the continent to build. The grant
will give the company credit to build the
read. Is it to the interest of California,
and particularly of San Francisco, to have
the road built now, and owned and con.
trolled by company interested in making
business center around the bay? VIII the
road be built over this rough country with
out the credit given by the grant: There
is not enough business now, we opine, to
justify the expenditure of the money neces-
sary for It's construction. We do not state
it as fact that there is not enough bust
ness we DO not know that there will be a
days delay in the construction by the Cal.
ifornia if the grant should be forfeited.
We do not know that there is any danger
of the Oregon company building on down
and diverting trade from California that a
local company would be interested in MAIN
tanning. We are not in position to give
this information, but if we were member
of Congress from California we would in
quire INTO the interest of the State in that
behalf. 1t is our experience that a man
who will do his whole duty. as he sees it,
will come out on top in the end Colusa
