' .This subject was discussed during
the canvass'last past, and also the can.
vass last Juoe, We claimed then'auil iu
aistnow,that the so oaUed Jltn Hoiladay
monopoly in Oregon with its ring and
rings; Was 'mating rapid strides against
Ihe fights of ihepeoptd. Whether pr
not Bea ; llolladaj js J,be "real power
behind the throne, wo do not pre
tend to kniw, nor are the people par
ticularly concerned about that question;
one'lhihg is tfue,'he' is the real party
W interest,1, or he" is1 thb acting and
managing agent fibr the company who
ever they may ' be. What we in&ist
upoo is this, that the acts and conduct
of this man. or company, have been such
i. ' .' i ( f -T .. -
as to deserve the condemnation of the
.'" "
people irrespective of party affiliation.
In the first place Congress donated for
the purpose of building a railroad in
Oregon for the benefit of the people
'thsreib, nbt for; beuefit! of specula
tors, a large tract of land comprising
'all and every odd section, not already
appropriated at the date of the law
(1866,)!ina district of country extend
ing from Portland to the south lino of
the State, a distance' of about three
hundred miles, and this donation ex
tended' thirty miles each side of the
tine of the railroad (o he "built", mating
a strip of country GO' miles in breatth
'and three hundred miles in leugth, This
every man of ordinary sense knows
would take all the Vacant land in the odd
sections In the Willamette, Uuipqua and
Kogu e tl iVer val ley b, a n d a 1 a rge amount
lf UiOuuU'm- timbered ;la6i besides.
This grant of lanf was alowed by the
law of Congress 'to comprise an amount j
of land equal to the whole of every odd
'section in a strip of land from the base
line to the State line south, and forty
miles in width, which would make six
thousand sections, or three millions
. .
eight hundred anl forty thousand acres
of Wd. ' This land was granted to any
company in Oregon ' that should be
designated by the' Legislature thereof ;
really then it was a grant to the State
of Oregon or the people, to be givcu to
whomever they desired. The Legisla
ture' of' Oregoti obeying the will of the
eople, gave this magnificent "grant to
he West Side' Company, but by some
chicanery of this unprincipled man, or
of the company for whom he operates,
arid the i baseness of fJcbrge,. H. Will
iams, when the amendatory act waf
pendjng in the Senate, the grant was
wrongfully and wickedly taken from the
Yest ide and transferred o the East
Side Company.
From the time that this grant of land
went into' the hands of Holladay and
company1, every act of the : company,
save the building of the road, has been
against tlie best interest of the people.
Thefirst imposition upon the people,
was the hypocritical pretentions of this
man Holladay, his ageutsofficers, serv
ants and hirelings, that he, Holladay,
.had comeliete and brought with him a
large amount of money which he de
signed toexpeod in the buiidingiof a
railroad for the special benefit of the
people Of Oregon f when in truth and
in fact, he or they, took the land grant
which the people had ""given them, as
the basis of credit, '' issued 'ten millions
of bonds arid ' actually received upon
them inrKurope, six millions of money;
at least this is our information, aud
we believe it to be reliable.
.When it ia 'understood that this amount
of money has been realized by the
company. upop lands giyeu'by the i eo
ple for the building of the east side road
alone, independent of thei grant of a
later' date for the West Side Koad, it
is eniy to' detefmioc whether Holladay
and Company1, liave sacrafieed their in
tlividuai" means to teni fit the people
' of Oregon, or have actually made a
princely 'foriune out ti the people
nioncy. ' Thtce millions of dollars will
cover the expense of the east side road
bo far, and Holladay now pre f ends he
can build no more roaj., until he can
sell more bonds' or rai,so more money
either from the general government or
from ' the State 'or both. W hot has
pecome!of the other three million's
which1 he obtained on ' his first bonds ?
Jaid aside we snpposi:, as a Make to full j
back upon, when they shall- have swin
died the people to the extent of their j
-t-
gullibility,
In the second placo this man or
company has imposed upon the peo
ple, by exacting from the tax payers
of certain localities and towns, large
donations of money, under penalty that
if they ref used, he would so construct
the road as to ruin or inj'ire them fi
nancially. He has used the very mon
ied power, put into his hands by the
maguanimity of the people, to impose
upou and oppress them. He has torn
down,taid waste their towns and villages
which were prosperous upon his com
ing,and has commenced new oncs'of his
own, and compelled the people, to
contribute largely to his coffers, for the
privilege of doing business along the
line of the road. lie has managed so as
to evade the law of Congress, made for
the benefit of the landless; and to day is
compelling the poor to pay him from
five to filteen dollars per aero for the
land given him by the people, instead
of two dollars and fifty cents per acre
as required by the law. lie has exer
cised unwarrantable power, in imposing
tariffs, too 'grievous" to be born, up
on the very people from whom ho has
received hu wealth. Ho has employed
unconscionable means to accomplish his
fchemes and designs against the finan
cial growth and prosperity of the
people, by Charging such prices for
fcights, between our commercial mart
j and San Francisco as would sweep the
last dollar of profit realized from the
labor and sweat of "the hardy yomanry
of this valley aid tato, into bin owti
pocket ; and when any man or set of
men has attempted to pla-e upon the
high sas between the points last named
an opposition Una of steamers for the
bentat if the people lie bus universally
managed to drive them off, or buy them
out at his own figures, so a to continue
to carry on his .schemes for the Mibju-
gat ion (financially) of th.-se people.
In ipe third !ace, he has uodt-r.
taken to demoralize the people by
using the very means they have put
into his hands, for laudable purpt.sis,
to interfcro with anl control their
election.-, and has aetu.Jl anl
unscrupulously attempted todu taic to
the sovereigns of this country who
should hold office in city,- c mnfy aiul
sftite, and 'who should not ; and it has
come to pass that whenever the dom
inant party in Oregon, desires to make
sure their political sehunrs, they go to
this man, as a child would go to his
father, and ak his assistance and
influence, in considerition of which
they submit to any dictation of terms.
In the manner shown above, the
people of Oregon arc governed and
controlled by one man or con pany of
men, who are making rapid stiides in
their cncroachiiK nts upon and in their
abrk?gment of the people's most sacred
rights. And for proof of the power
exercised by this man Holladay, ve
have only to refer to the. operation.; of
the last Legislature. A few instances
will suffice. We drew a bill with our
own hands regulating the rate's of fare
and freights on railroad lines and
steamboats, limiting them to about tho
same figures now charged, which are
far above what they ought to be, and
a Republican Houmj with a majority
of thirteen, which Holladay claims to
have elected by his own exertion,
voted it down two to on leaving him
unrestricted in his tariff ' powers. A
bill was also introduced for tho pur
pose of compelling Holladay and
company to fence their road for the
protection of those through v?hose
lands' the road run, but that could not
be pasMcd, nor could any measure be
pased which tended in the slightest
degree to weaken the power this
railroad monopoly is exerting over tho
people of this' State, "or"" toward pro
tecting the rights of tha citizens, The
simple" truth is the last Legislature
squandered - its consitutional term,
ignoring the wants and rights of the
people, and spent their whole forty
days either legislating for the special
benefit of Holladay" and company, or
in preventing any unfriendly legisla
tion to him.' The Holladay members
spent their time on the stump in tho
June election, screaming against the
Swamp Land swindle, and when they
were elected and took their scats, on Btualer dimcnsioii is being conducted,
that subject, they were as dum asjby tho H;je uf the first, for ships of
Rulaum's ass. These members of the ! 0f. suial touuagc. The Admiralty also
j Legislature also made tho people bo- j
lieve during the oauvasp, that il cIcctcUja
they" would furnish" a remedy for what
they called, the Lock and dam swindle,
but when elected, they through their
own committees pronounced the works
a magnificent structure highly creditable
to the makers and of gry-at and inealcu'a
ble value to theStato and absolutely
undertook to com pell the people to
purchase tho wroks at the enormous
price of one million dollars besides the
two hundred thousand already given.
All these, things are true and more,
and all, is the' legitimate result, of a
people who pretend to be free, quietly
feubtuitting to the rule or misrule of one
man or monopoly. How long will the iu
telligen6e of this people, blinded by
political .superstition, submit to outra
ges so gigautic and gross ?
Ihe telgraph brings the new3 that
Ciraut has pardoned Hodge, the great
tjefaulter. This is as we expected,
Hodge was sent to tho penitentiary as
one of the bigest thieves in America,
(i rant likes his kind and conequetnly

that he, Hodge, waj drawn into the
thing by the intrigues of some other

A report by.the ciptain of Russian
corvette Royarin published in the
Qorif lodt MewfCpycr, gives some curi
ous detail on the present state )( the
naval armaments of Japan. On the
l lih of July, 1 ST I (he ays). five Jap
anese shipi of war eutered the harbor
of Yokohama. One of these ships is a
corvette of Ruglish construction, armed
with six long cist iron guns an! two
bronze guns. Tlio c!ond ship is an
iron did ram, the Stonewall .Jackson,
formerly part of the American Con fed
crate fleet. It is armed with a three
hundred pounJer and two Armstrong
rifled seventy pounders. Tho three
other vessels are screw gunboats of
ICnglLh construction, each armed with
three guns. The crcVs of these ves
sels are composed exclusively of Japan
nsc, with a uniform exactly the same as
that of English sailors. On the 28th
of March a casemated . Ja,nincso cof
vctte, the Reuzokan, armed with
eight guns., also entered tho harbor.
The Japanese army is equiped and
armed in the French manner, and its
rifles aro according to the Albiii sys
tem. In the Ofulf , of Yeddo there la
an arsenal, situated on a terrace cut
into tho side of a mountain. This ar
senal 'is provided with a largo dock
tour hundred and seven feet long,
eighty two feet wide, and twenty on,e
feet deep. The largest ocean steamer
can enter it for repairs. The water is
exhausted in ten hours by threo largo
steam pump. Its construction occu
pied eighteen months, and cost the
Japanese Government $210,00'.).
Thirty vessels have already been ro-
fitted in this doek. Another dock of
jia3 ft rope manufactory, 'a, foundery,
)0LT manufactory, a mechanical
forge, a steam sawing machine, and
all the appliauccs necessary for repair
ing ships. Engines and boilers are now
being constructed for river steamers.
The building are all of wood ; they are
not supplied grith much; machinery,
but what they have is sufficient for the
wants of tho harbor. This small et
tablishment will evidently never become
the naval arsenal of Japan, but it
t ... . , i .
forms an excellent nucleus for the young
Japanese fleet, and will afterward be of
great use for the sqnadron which the
Japanese 'Government is apparently
about to keep up in the neighborhood
of the capital. The arsenal wa3 built
by a French engineer, M. Vcrny, who
has been retained as a mauager of the
establishment. Thirty Frenchmen are
attached to it in the capacity of fore
men, assistants, and instructors. The
maintenance of the works costs $300,
000 a year, and since they were begun
fivo years ago, the expenses of the es
tablibhmcut have amounted to 21,500,-
000.
The Circuit Court is now in session
at Salem. Tho celebrated McMinn.

vifdt to the old town. Although the
removal of ri rnar.y of the building
gives it a ratber' "deserted appearance,
it still seems to flourish, and singulariv
enough its residents seem to entertain
no jealously of there mre pretentious

On Monday lsf, there was enacted
one of those tragedies whieh are heeon
ing alarmingly freuuent in this State,
and which nothing but the rigors of the
law can ever be invoked to prevent.
As we learn it, John Wi'scr and Sum
ner Hauxbuift were coming down he
Ray together, a small bout, and as Wil
son tclU it, bad an ' altercation all to
themselves. Upon reaching a point
opposite Wilson's vabin the boat was
landed, when he immediatedl' repaired
thither und irot his revolver and it; turn
ed toward the lauding, met Hauxhtirst
and shot hiir. through the breast. Dr.
Davidson was called aud pronounced
the wound fatal. Wjl.son was arrested
and taken before Esquiro Jenkins and
had an examination resulting in his be
ing held to answer at the n?xt term
of the Circuit Court for this county.
He was brought over by Constable Day
on Thursday last, and lodged in jail
where he now remains.
Wilson's versionof the affair is that
Hauxhurst had beaten him while a
board the boat and threatened his life.
JUe accused is 57 vcars old, and for
merly resided, in Josephine county, and
later stopped in this county. He does
not bear the best reputation Courier.
