The New York Witness, formerly
in sympathy with the republican party,
says: 9iiA
Many republicans in this state and
elsewhere are SO angry with the pro-
hibitionists for having, as they sup
pose, defeated Blaine, that they are
vowing they will never hereafter do
anything to aid the canse OF temper
ance. They voted, they say, for no.
license, or prohibition in some non
partisan form but they declare they
will never do 80 again. But pray,
good friends, why did you vote for
prohibition beforei Was 1t right or
wrongf If it was right then, is it
any the less right nowi Were you
guided then by principle, or merely
by desire to oblige the prohibition.
istsi And are you going to be actus-
ted now by principle or by malicef

II 10 difficult 10 find man in this day
and age who has the hardwood TO say
he Is In favor Of the erincipie of grant
ing lands 10 aid In zoe construction OF
railroads, and yet great MANY in this
Territory are contending for an exten-
sion Of time, which IL precisely the
same as making q new grant. The
Congress of 1864 argued in this way !:
We believe that the public lands may
be riQhtfully used to aid in the building
OF railroads. We recognize that it IL
very desirable TO have a railroad built
between Lake Superior and Puget
Sound, and We will therefore give
nearly 100000 acres of the peoples
land 20 secure the building of this road,
provided it 10 built within q specified
time. At that time this land was not
considered valuable. After waiting
nearly a quarter of century, after the
land has greatly enhanced IN value,
after other roads have been built CEN
Meeting the East with the West,
and after there are not half as
many facts 20 justify the grant as then
existed, these modern railroad hepub-
licans come forward and say: We
do not believe in the principle OF
granting lands, but We want a rail
road TO Puget Sound. and are therefore
willing to violate our sense OF right by
virtually making new grant There
IL no honest consistency In this, as there
was much more justification for the old
grant than there is for this new one.
Hexs IL another Inconsistency: They
say they must have the assistance of q
and grant or they cannot suild the
Dad; but the Republican platform de-
clares that they shall not have this as
sistance until after the road 10 built. A
hired man 10 assigned the task of cut
ting down q tree. To out this tree d''wn
he munt have an az; bat he 10 informed
that hymust not touch the az until be
has cut the tree down.
And here Is asother Inconsistency:
The Republican platform declares that
the lands along the Columbia river
should be declared forfeited. On this
platform they have placed Mr.. Arm
strong, who argues that CONGRESS has no
lawful right 90 declare forfeiture.
And here 10 another inconsistency:
when this Mr.. Armstrong Was urA ed
TO 20 before the people and discuss
matters with his competitor he replied
that be kads'f the fisss and yet, this
same Mr.. Armstrong has foand ample
time TO tag around behind his competi-
tor and shake hands with the party
managers.

IN PACIFIC COUNTY.

The Union party Of Pacific county
said nsthiug directly of forfeiture, but
in general way gave expression TO
strong condemnation Of the Northern
Pacific Company. They adopted the
following:
RESOLVED, That the policy and manage
ment Of about one third Of the land in
tbs county, claimed and beld by the N.
r. X. Co.. greatly retard the settlement
OF the county-First. by their delays in
appraising land when settlers apply for
It,. Second, by the exorbitant prices
asked, especially when settlers have
already made improvements ON their
lands. Thirdly, by the right of way and
exemption claims in their deeds. which
make buyers only portion owner, af-
ter all. Fourthly, by the unsettled con-
dition OF their indemnity land, which
precludes the possibility of any settle
ment whatever.
