THE Civil Service laws are of Dem ocratic origin. They were demanded in every National Democratic plat form since the war up to the time Of their enactment.

Tho Southern Pacific Railroad Seeking
 Patents From the Government.
 ASHLAND, Or, Nov. 20.-The South ern Pacific Railway company is trying to secure patents to all unoccupied min eral lands lying in sections within the limits of the railroad grant covering the most valuable part of southern Oregon mining. district. The railroad has re- cently been making surveys and filing the lists with the land office at Roseburg for the purpose of securing title from the government.
 Public meetings have been held in several towns at which the action of the railroad company has been denounced. By terms of the charter of the Oregon and California Railroad company the government stipulated that mining lands be excepted.
 The people claim the land is wholly unfit for agricultural uses and the com pany is trying to get hold of valuable mining lands under the provisions of it's nonmineral charter. Special committees have been appointed from each mining district and they are directei to take counsel. A large number of contests will be filed at once.

U. the menace of government con- trol of the railroads; in the event Of their not acceding to compulsory arbitration of differences with their employees. This is we'll enough in one sense, but is to be hoped that the country will go slow in adopting therefrom the Popnlistic doctrine. The Democratic theory is that the State alone in it's right of eminent domain, can charter corporation to do business within it's borders. The State taxes the concern and protects the people against rapaclty, punishing all trespasses and repair ing damages to person or property by State courts and juries of the neighborhood. With government ownership, the State would have no revenue from that source, Federal property not being taxable; nor could damages be sued for The Court Of Claims might be piled high

Public Schools Closed.

The opera house was jammed to its ut
most capacity last Friday evening by
friends and patrons Of the public school, to
witness the closing exercises. The fact
that such large audience was present is an
attestation of the general interest taken in
the Corvallis schools by this co,rmunity.
The program as a whole was especially in.
teresting and evidenced cal efui @tralning
Throughout the vast assemblage were heard
many complimentary words for both teach
ers and pupils. All realize that the school
in eachFdepartment has accomplished thor
ough work, The discipline has been good
and the work throughout has become thor.
oughly systemized, and from this fact it is
to be hoped that no changes will l.. made in
the personnel of the teachers. Where an
efficient corps of teachers have beeh once
secured the best interests of school will,
as rule, be best subserved by retaining
them permanently. Constant changes. un-
less there be just cause for rerndEaI, nsu-
ally result in disorganization and rear
rangement of plans which have in mea s.
ure become fixed and when school is re-
sumed again in the fall considerable time
may be lost. The board are men of judg-
ment, having the welfare of the schools at
heart and may be depended upon to do their
duty in every particular.

An Important Decision.

The decision rendered by Judge
Bellinger yesterday in the case of
Charles Altschul VS.. the Oregon
Pacific and Willamette Valley &
Coast railroads, L. Egenton Hogg
and others, had been looked f,r
with much interest. 1t is OF i'm
portance. because it settles the
title to nearly 100000 acres Of
land, one of the principal assets of
the Oregon Pacific, which is to be
sold today.
The SUIT was brought to declare
void any claim on the part of de-
PENDANTS to lands comprising a
grant to the Willamette Valley &
Cascade Mountain Wagon Road
Co, which had been conveyed to
them by Hogg, as attorney in fact
iof the owner. This instrument
had been given to Hogg by A.
Well, tile then owner of the tract
empowering him to negotiate and
Conclude sale on fixed terms any
time inside of two years from
January !, 1879. =. At the expi-
ration of that period Hogg went
,, to WE'LL in New York and rendered
check which he said was for
$445,OOO. Itis claimed that Well
never saw the check, said he had
no deed prepared, but if the pro-
ceeding were in good faith he
would execute one. He says that
he turned to send for his attorney
and when he again turned around
Mr. Hogg and his witnesses had
disappeared. Hogg then made a
deed to the Willamette Valley
e Coast Railway Co. Tor the con-
sideration of sac, 900, claiming
to act as Weiil's attorney in fact.
The deed was not acknowledged
for nearly two years after it pro-
fessed to have been executed and
delivered.
The court held that, i'll all that
was done or professed to have
been done under this power. there
was nothing consistent or straight
forward: The sale of an option
by Hogg, as attorney in fact, to
company in fact owned by him
self, without communicating the
fact to his prlncipal; the pretended
tender of certified check for
$445,O00; the recital in the deed
by Hogg, as president of the
Oregon Pacific company, on Oct.
/, 1880, that the Willamette VAL
ley company had the right to
s.become the owner" of the prop
erty in question upon payment of
$6OO,OOO; the pretended deed by
Hogg, as attorney in fact, convey
ing absolutely the same property
on November 8, 1880, acknowledge
ed more than two years later
these things admit of no eXpla-
nation consistent with fair dealing
or honest motives. In the more
than ten years since the expiration
of Hogg's power the owners of the
property expended large sums of
money in complying with the con-
ditions upon which the grant was
made by congress, in defending
their title Ill the courts, and for
other necessary expenses in con-
nection with these lands. The
pretended purchasers of the prop
erty, or of the option to purchase,
did not offer to pay any of these
expenses, and does not propose to
do so now. Its insolvency con-
fesses it's inability to pay such
charges or purchase price of the
alleged sale. The plaintiff was
entitled to the relief prayed for,
and such was the decree.
