A DECISIVE VOTE.

By the decisive vote OF II for to
against, the senate yesterday passed the
Northern Pacific forfeiture bill, which for
feits to the government $50 much OF the
lands granted that company as are CO.
terminous with that part OF its main line
which extends from Wallula Junction to
Portland, and that part of the Cascade
branch which shall not be completed at
the date OF the passage of that bill, and
makes the rights of way in the territories
subject to taxation" Nothing in the act
is to be construed to waive any right OF
the United States TO forfeit any other
lands granted to them, for fail
ure in the past or future, to comply
with the conditions of the grant. The
passage OF this bill marks new era in
railroad legislation, and is the starting
point from which several similar meas
ures will be launched OH Congress within
year, and the people OF the country
through which the roads pass in particular
and the people of the country in general,
will be immensely benefited thereby.
What monstrous law it is, that taxes
an actual settler with the full valuation
OF his quarter section, and the railroad
owning the adjoining ten or twenty sec
tions goes scott free of taxation. Yet,
this law has obtained in several sections
OF the country, and is maintained
through the free but corrupt
use OF the money so held
from the Government, and the passage OF
this bill is the only step ever taken by
the General Congress to changeit. That
the forfeiting of lands given to them by
the Government to aid in the construction
of their road-and given only upon cer-
tain stipulated conditions, which con-
ditions have been ignored-is just, rea-
sonable and business-like, fully describes
the action, and as such it meets with the
hearty approval OF every business man
and home seeker in the country. Its
passage by the Senate assures the Presi-
dents concurrence, and the Forty-Ninth
Congress will have the honor of being
the first to wrest ill-gotten wealth from
powerful corporations by due process OF
National legislation.

LORD DERBY'S MANIFESTO.

Lord Derby, who is the head and front
OF the English Liberals, has issued a
manifesto to that part Of them resident
in Liverpool and the contiguous election
districts, wherein he says: "The Liber-
ais must choose between allegiance to
Gladstone and allegiance TO principles.
Hesitation is impossible. We appeal to
those who prefer patriotism to party, to
support the Unionist Association" Sin
gular as it may appear to Americans, the
voting population OF the Liverpool dis
trict is largely Irish, but OF that half
breed class, which can be swayed by
local questions, and who have lost their
love OF country, by close associa-
ton with Englshmen for generations.
Knowing this, this rule or ruin fire-brand
OF the aristocratic minority whips these
miserable people in on the plea OF patriot
ism. Can anything be meaner or more
despicable? Is it the patriots act to
clutch the neck OF his native land in a
struggle where she is so heavily over
matched? Is it patriotism in man to
help bind his native land in the chains
OF persecution and slavery, which she
tries so heroically to sunder? Is it patriot
ism to follow the dictates OF one Of the
most cold-blooded enemies his island
home ever had, and thus aid in weakening
her chance for freedom? Yet such is
the patriotism this man seeks to wiring
from the deluded fools he addresses, and
SO lost are they to the sense OF honor and
manliness, that they will doubtless do
now as they always have done in the
past, vote solidly to return Unionist
members, thereby helping to sink their
native land deeper in the tolls OF the
schemers for her ultimate humiliation or
complete downfall. Principles, too, are
held out as cause for electing Unionist
members, The principles OF party so
lost TO all seuse OF manhood and brotherly
among outrages, and meet the universal
condemnation OF mankind, are fitting
vote catchers for men OF Lord Derby's
kidney, but they would rot the heart
and scar the brain OF any true
man in Christendom. There is evidence
in the atmosphere surrounding British
politics just now, that the people are
with the men OF Ireland in their fight
for national life, and that they will rise
equal to the occasion, and by their allied
vote so strangle the damnable policy OF
the polyglot and aristocratic minority,
that never again can it show its head in
the nations affairs, and good men, the
world over will applaud the deed. Lord
Derby's manifesto will assuredly recoil
upon himself and his minions, and Irish
men in all other parts OF the country
will be benefited thereby.

A NEW NAVY YARD.

Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, intro
tuced resolution Monday directing the
secretary OF the navy to appoint com
mission 10 inspect the Pacific coast Of the |
country north OF the AID parallel and
locate a site for navy yard. There are
many and weghty reasons why the
yard at Mare Island should be discon-
tinued, chief among them being the
aroma OF political chicanery which has
pervaded it for nearly quarter Of CEN
tury. Every honest citizen of California
will admit that Mare Island has been
hot bed of corruption for many years.
Hundreds OF men were taken from the
slums OF San Francisco and installed as
painters, carpenters, sparmakers, etc,
who never did days work at those oc-
cupations in their lives, but being of
| the striker class or ward heelers, were
posted as watch dogs each upon the other
on election day, and the bosses knew how
the vote would stand weeks in advance
OF the official count. If heavier vote
]
ployed, and when the election was over
they were incontinently bounced, their
services being no longer required. Six
men would carry a 2x4 scantling half way
around the yard in the forenoon, and
bring it back again in the afternoon just
in time to catch the the ferry boat at 5
o'clock, repeating the performance daily
during the few weeks they were kept on
hand. spars, rigging, sails, machinery
and paint-work were all condemned to
meet the exigencies OF the times and all
placed back again just as before-except-
ing the painting-when the time was up.
Painting was the favorite art with every
shoulder-hitter in San Francisco, and
they bedaubed everything in sight, from
the fence-palings and flagstaff to their
own breeches, resembling in color, what
) they ought to be in fact, lot of convicts.
One artist from Tar Flat was sent to
paint some cannon stored in the yard
: and tying his brush to the end OF cord.
, wood club, he gave the bores of the guns
! a liberal dose Of metallic paint, thus ru'
, lining them. The story OF the outraging
of honesty and decency in the Mare
l Island Navy Yard, could be continued
indefinitely, and for the fact that new
: yard would bury in oblivion the heinous
8 offences against the people committed ir
, this one, the residents of the coast
: and country at large will be glad
There are other and weighty reasons
: however, why this yard should be aband.
: oned and new one located. The flow
5 ing OF the tides in the bay Of San Fran
Q cisco, and the deposit of mud from Maps
, Creek, combined, have made the deptl
e of water at the yard, insufficient for the
t passage of the larger vessels OF our navy
and the magnificent stone dry deck there
g built at cost OF SO 100000, is absolutel.
t useless in consequence. Again, a clout
: is, and always has been hanging over the
title to the Island, and the trouble is still
i pending in the Supreme Court, so that al
t things considered, the resolution of Sena
Q tor Mitchell will challenge the indorse
G ment of all honest men on the coast, ant
n materially help the interests OF that sec
t ton of the country.

the Grand Encampment OF the q. A,

Royal Gorge and the Black Canyon of the

Without doubt the trip over the d. x

SIGNS OF THE TIMES.

a Tribune special, quotes the New
York Freeman, the leading organ OF the
colored people OF the country, as saying
OF President Cleveland:
"He is good enough President for u.s.
We believe thoroughly in his patriotism and
in his incorruptible honesty. We believe he
has the best good of the country at heart
and aims TO execute the laws as he finds
them. Further, no President since Lincoln
has sympathized more earnestly with the
hopes and aspirations Of his colored fellow
citizens"
1t also quotes Senator Fair, of Nevada,
us saying:
Cleveland will run again in 1888 If the
party desire him. His marriage may make
him more ambitious. He lost his right
bower in Manning. He was the Democratic
fortress all manned and ready for action.
He was the chief man in the Cabinet and
knew all about politics His sretirement may
weaken Cleveland's chances in the next con-
vention. i think if he is nominated he will
be elected"
These are the undoubted signs Of the
times, assuring the people at large that,
despite the cavilings of soreheads who
did not obtain official position, and the
croakings Of jealous-hearted political OPP
ponents, the administration of the Ma
tons affairs by Grover Cleveland and
his Cabinet meets the solid approval OF
all classes, reaching even to the colored
people, who have been taught TO look
upon Democrat as their natural enemy
The scale Of political trickery was run uI
and down by the Republican press and
orators, in the last Presidential canvass

make them to believe that the supre
macy of the Democratic ticket would in
evtably lead to their reinstatement
and thousand other ills were conjuret
up to alright their superstitous minds
especially in the Southern States. Now
that the Democratic party are in powerant
that the financial condition o the coun
try is better than ever before in its his
tory, when the office is made to seek tht
man, and the system OF spoils is ignored
when the personal standing OF the col
ored man is equal to that OF any othei
man, and men OF color have been ap
pointed to office, the deluded peo
pie who relied on the promises
and preaching OF Republicans, SCI
their error and in their official organ
acknowledge the fact. Nothing could b,
more gratifying to good Democrats a
large than this admission from the col
ored men Of the country, and it is th'
best possible endorsement Presiden
Cleveland could ask or have, OF the con
duct of his administration.
Not here, however, does the march o
progress stop, but it is invading the grea
bulwark OF Republican authority, thu
United States Senate, and one OF tn,
ablest, most honorable and brightest mel
Of that able body, admits that Presiden
Cleveland will be again elected il nomin
ated. These cheering signs OF the time
come in season with all of natures boun
teous display, to infuse new life, new
hopes and new expectations into the loya
Democrats OF the country, and NOV,
them to renewed energies to keep tn,
present pilot at the helm OF State.
