THE DAILY BEk E. ROSEW ATER: EDITOR New Yokx has made s successful experiment with the electric light Brash s leading Edison in the race —_— A Viesxa dispatch says that the Empress of Austris has abandoned her hunting trip to Irelsnd. So bay several landlord COmicago has made = successfu beginning of refunding her great debt, by the eale of $850,000 of 4 per oent bonds st par. This shows the sbundance of loanable money and the high credit of the city. Presiozst Haves has requeeted (Generals Crock snd Miles to proceed to the Ponca reservation and investi- gate the condition of the Indians. This commission, which, on its face, is Orook ed, will probably srrive at the truth of the matter. Kelly and waid: “Well, you are re-elected, judge, and probably will be for life.” “I told my poople,” replied the judge, “I wasa candidate for lite, bacring lunacy or paralysis.” “Your excoption was too broad,” ald Cox; “lunacy s no disqualification for & seat In congress.” s s Gronos Arrrep TOWNSEND, Who at timos vies with Ell Perkins for the title of the grest American liar, occa sionally speaks the truth, as note the following extract from one of his Washington letters: *The jobbing intereet, which 2 again aggressive at ‘Washington in view of Hayes' retire- ‘ment, will not probsbly have long to remsin colled and concesled. To Hayes' method of government there are scores of men in Washington who find tbemselves indebted for clean hands and clean charaster, who might, under & more perverted administra- tion, be now shuddering before inves- aigatingcommittees and askiug for the earth tohide them. The pasing and coming administrations will probably elasp hands, and, endoraed by respec- table public opinion, the fury of mere patronage-getters will be of little con- sequence.” Ax exchange remarks: “We are glad to see the Omsha Bre endorse Judge Bisck's views on railroad ‘matters, as published in that famous letter of his on the subject. But why was TR Bre so very late in that pablication?” TmE Be gave what it thought good and sufficient reasons for its seeming tardiness in publishing Judge Black's scorching and convine- ing le‘ter on the railrosd monopolies. So much of the valuable space of Tar Ber had been taken up in republith- ing Mr. Thurber’s article on the “Rail- vosds snd the People” that it was unwilling 10 follow it immediately by such an extended article as that of Judge Black on thesame topic. Bat, as we waid then, “‘a good thing will keep.” — Tax stategrange of Ohio has adopted a resolution that hereafter all cand- dates for public ofice, meking the sup- port of grangers, shall be requested to publicly express thelr sentiments up- on raflway corporations and thelr re- istion to tbe people. This course maust, sooner or latar, be taken by all the fermers of the west. They have been humbugged too long by office- weeking renegades like Church Hows and A. H. Church. For their own protection they must combine against the baneful consolidation of railroad corporations, made against the inter- ests of the producing classes. The independent press of the country, journals like the New York Times and Ohicago Tribune are rallying to the re- lief of the people. Pablic sentiment is becoming aroused to the impend- ing poeril of railrond domination in our state and national logislation. Tne highest judicial authorities in the country have de- olared that railroad corporations are amandable_to the statute laws of the warlous states and the general con- gress. Tho right of legislatares to pass laws regulating freight and pas- senger tarifis and prohibiting wnder heavy ponalties eXtortion and dis- crimination is unchallenged, except by the pald attorneys of the great monopolies. The remedy now lies in the hands of the people. On them devolves the responsibility of the contineance or removal of the wallroad despotism. It is thelr votes which select men to represent the wtate in congress and in the legislature. They will follow the worthy example of the Ohlo farmers aud pledge their houor tosupport no man for any pub- lic position who does mot plant him- self squarely and firmly on an snti- monopoly basis? Or, will they shut their eyes to the past and continue to play into the hands of the railroad kings by electing candidates whose past records and present assoclations sre linked with the robbers of the producers of the west! One thing more. The legislature is woon to meet iu Lincoln. A mejority of its members have been elected by farmer constituencies whose every in- terest demands that the mandate of the constitation bs carried into effect. The passage of such laws is not left optional wita the members of the lg- islature. Now, let every farmer of Nobraska whese vots at the last eleo- tion was cast for a legislstive candi- date pledged to work for his intereste at Lincoln the comlig winter in their troe light & number of rene- wades to duty and apotates from the principles of their constituencies. Farmers of Nebraska! pledge your honor that such men shall never again hold office by your votes nor sttain INDUSTRIAL GROWTH. The historlan of Amerioa In the Nineteenth century will perforce de- vote much of his attention to the re- markable development of American industries during this eventful period of our national growth. It is but nineteen years since Samuel A. Slater started the first “successful cotton inning mill at Pawtocket, R. L To-day we ratse 1,500,000,000 pounds of cotton tosupply millsin every New England state, and nearly every other { 4o state in the Union, which manufac- tare §500,000,000 worth of goods. From the day in 1794 when the first rade woolen mill was established at Newberry, Mass., our woolen manu- factures have grown in extent snd in excellence of product, until to-day our 12,000 or 15,000 se's of machin- ery, handled by nearly 100,000 of the most skillful operatives to be found in the world, produce $250,000,000 worth of goods, which in point of cheapness and excellence compete with the best work in Europe. Less than half & century ago the silk factorles gained a foothold at Paterson. To-day 250 mills yield an annual production of silk goods which strength and durability and excel beauty’ equalthe finest products of the French looms. We mine nearly fifteen per cent of the iron ore produced in the world and consume our whole product. Our far- naces arejmaking 2,000,000 tons of pig iron per annum, and of our enormeus ooal yield, about 50,000,000 tons per year, a large fraction 1s consumed in waking and working fron, 1,000,000 or more tons of which goes to market a8 wrought iron in a thousand differ- ent shapes. Twenty years ago the Bemsemer wteel process was introduced into this country, and during the past year 600,000 tons were manufactured in this country. In our forges, faciories and furnaces 3,000,000 working people in 330,000 establishments are add‘ng to the na- tional wealth. Over one billion of dollars Is snnually paid out in wages. Two billions five hundred millions of capitsl are employed and three bil- lions of dollara’ worth of raw materlal consumed in the annual production of five billions of dollars’ worth of manu- factured products. Such & remarkable exhibit of less than & century's growth may wall chal lenge the wonder and admiration of the world. Towa office seekers are bestirring themselves over the pension agency for Jowa and Nebraska which is located at Des Moines. Gov. Gue, the present agent, will retire from office in February, snd quitea num- ber of candidstes are mentioned as desirous to succeed him. Among the number are Jacob Rich, who was agent at Dabuque prior to the con- solidation; I. W. Griffith, of Polk county, O. C. Horton, of Muscatine, Geo. H. Powers, of Taylor, and Mrs, E. H. Foster, of Scott. The Dubuque Herald thinks Mr. Rich will get it. Nebraska has presented no candidate for the position, Waese's Tibbles and Bright Eges Now that the Poncas have recovered their reservation, Tibbles will un- doubtedly turn up ngain. Perbaps he and Bright Eyes might play the role of head man and woman —[Hastings Nebraskan. The last we heard trom Tibbles he wis in Bufialo with Bright Eyes, from which place he sent us a paper to show what & good time he was having, with Bright Eges. I Tibbles only know as much about the true inwardness of Bright Eyes Box-Karoshs Hash-Taka, his bliss wouldn't be so unalloyed. He would feel & good desl like the woman who had buried seven husbands. THE brazen apologista for the bare- faced legislative steal, which the de- feated legislative candidates from Douglas connty are attempting to push through, have suddenly become silent. What seems to be the trouble Did thesight of the broken seals on the disputed ballots s0 reluctsntly bronght into open court frighten them from their buildosing and braggadocio? The trae history of this outrageous and criminal attempt to defeat the wishes of the people is yet to be brought to light. Nstlonal Rallway Legislation. Ghicago Tribune, Decomber 18, Mr. Reagan, the chairman of the commerce committee, is very confident that he will be able to secure serious consideration for his inter-state rail- way bill immediately after the holiday recess, or within a few days if no re- cess be taken. Yesterday, as usual, the private bills swept every thing from the board in the house of representa- tives. The programme for to-day i to take up the military academy bill, ‘which , without doubt, be posed of. Then it is understood t] the way shall bo cleared for the re. funding bill, and it s believed to be possible to reach an agreement and pase that measure in the house by ‘Wednesday. If all this shall be done —though any task is incldent to con- stant impedimenta and great uncer- tainty in congress—Mr. has Teason to believe that the appropri- ation committee will give him a fair field for urging the consideration of national leglslation for the regulation of inter-state rallroads, and he aiso thinks that the house, as a whole, is much more imj with the im- portance of this subjoot than it wasat G!l; last session. n apite of the rather cheering view of the matter taken by Mr. Reagan, it does not now look as though any lon upon railway regulation may be matured by the Do ch as the ‘measuree—such as rtionment bill—will contest for the attention of the house outside of the necessary ap- propristion bills. The interlor i of toy Dation Bave been b af of the nation have been tified, has other which it takes possessed with the d Tuslon that 1t s too early for this governmeat to uj System for the regulation of ralroads, snd that the passage of any law now would retard the new growth of rail- roads that has set insince the renew- al of prosperity. Though the present congress is democratic in both houses, the mflaence of the administration fn shaping or retarding legislation is im- portant. It extends to the depart- ments, aud the departments have & large sbare in the preparation of the laws. The indifference of the head of the government in this ‘matter is reflected In the interior de- partment. Mr. French, who is audi- tor of railroad scoounts, has presumed upon his rather nondescript position the passage of a law prohibitiog, in eral terms, all discrimination in “‘like possible service" from the same polnt, for the same distance, and on the same day, and there let the matter rest. If the railroad corporations could have the privilege of dictating the terms of a law, they could not_hit upon any ex- pression that would better_suit their purpose. The veteran d man- ager must have laughed st this sug- gestion when he read it, as designed to exercise any control over unreason- able charges or unfair discrimination It Mr. French were a hired attorney of the railroads, instead of a pald em- ploye of thegovernment, he conld carcely make a proposition that would be more eubservient to the railroad purpose of avolding sibility to the public under the 3 This single instance shows how_little sid or encouragement the project of national legislation on railway affairs has received from the administration. I the railwa, subjectshall come up for serious consideration in the house, it will rest mainly upon the bill re- reported by the commitcee, which is known as the Henderson bill, and upon the substitute known as the Reagan bill. The Henderson bill provides for a National Railway Com- mission, but seems almed rather at in- vestigations, repurts, and fature pro- jects of law than actual remedial legis- lation. Ite chief defects are that it fails to provide the commisslon which it proposes to create with the proper suthority for the summary process that is conceded to be necessary to any relief from railroad extortion and oppession; that it contalns no penal provistons for the violatlon of the regulations laid down; and that it ex- tends the supervision of the com- missioners to water - ways, which belng free, may be better let alone, Though Mr. Reagan, as chairman of the commsrce committee, reported the Henderson bill to the house, he immediately roposed a sub- stitate, which is known as the Reagan bill. It probibits discrimination, drawbacks, oppressive poolings, great er charges for a shorter than for a longer distance in the performance of the eame service, and other notorions devices for robbing the public. It re: quires that the inter-state tallrdads shall adopt and kee posted schedules of freight rates and charges, which shall not be changed without fivedays’ public notice, and provides for civil proceedings for triple damages, a qQuasi-criminal proceeding, and actual indictment, involving a_ fine of mot less than $1000 for violation of the law. The main defect of the Reagan bill is that it does not estab- lish a oommission with certain judicial and executive authority neo- essary to aid in the proper preparation and prosecutlon of cases sgainst offending reiltoads. It is true that the railren 15 desire if any legislation be passed, thsta commission be pro- vidsd, but th.y want a commission with tic | hands and testrloted pow- ers. The provisions of the Resgan bill, with sowe changes,—such as ex- tending the time for the required notice of new schedles, and strength- ened by a respensible and efficient system of a commission to assist in the enforcement of the laws, after the manner of the English sys would probably afferd the most istactory solutfon of the problem. is almost hopiry agalnst hope, how- ever, to anticij t> any such bequeat from the dying congress. ————— POLITICAL POINTS. s ho hasn’t felt better for t- Blalne throe yeata.

A Foul Blotch on Their Social and Industrial Life, A Trip From 'Frisco to Portland —A Visit to “Minnie Myrtles.” Correspondence of The Bee. PoxrLAxD, Orogon, December 1.— My former letter was written in San Francisco. IknowI did not do the subject justice. It would take too Iong to do so. Onemuststudy the pecaliarities of that remarkable oity long and thoroughly to be able to place a fair estimate on what Is seen by the casual observer, for beside all the outside, there is an inwardness of peculiar construction aad of a various charaoter not easily sympathized with by one who isa stranger in the sun- shine and shadow of its multitudious lite. Eastern men by a residence of years becoma to some extent changed. Ausociations of all kinds are more essily formed, and when formed, either for good or otherwise, are less easily broken than in esstern towns. In Nebraska Brother Finch talks eloquently and trathfully of the evils of interperance; why, there is not one drop of the ardent sold or used in Nebraska where there are gallons of it consumed under the broad daylight of heaven in Oslifornia, “ermey Lave ox 1r,” 83 & miner from Bodie said as I came down from Reno. California and Oregon would farnish a fine hield for some of our advocstes of a dry morality. On the 22d I lgft the mbral city of "Frisco on the Oregon railway and navigation company’s steamer Colum- bia, commanded by Commodore Fred. Bolles. The Columbia is a new iron ship of 2,721 tons burden, built at Chester, Pa., by John Roach & Son, and lsunched last April. She has 65 state room, with two berths cach, sa- loons elegantly furaished, all finished in maple and walnut in the most taste- fol manner. Heavy Brussels carpets and Turkish mattings cover the floors, and the tables are fairly burd:ned with —well, anything you eall for. Oapt. K. VanOtetndorf is the general man- ager of this line of steamers, in which are four as fine ships as find wharfage in San Francisco, not excepting the Chinese or Australisn Tines. On the morning of the 24th of Novem- ber the Columbia crossed the bar at ASTORIA, just » little after daylight, and as I saw the long line of broakers dashing themselves into foam everywhare ex- cept in the narrow and tortuous chan- nel, wondered not that ‘many lives are yearly sacrificed In these treach- erous waters. The ran of salmon coms into the Coliimbia river over this bar and cross into its waters in great- est numbers when the breakers were the highest. Conseqitently the fish- ermen make the best catches nearest the bar and often by thef undertow ARE SWEPTINTO THE SBA, which is certain death. Three hun- dred of these hardy sons’ of misfor- tune went down to look over their footlogs, smidst the foam aud their diving of the surf during the past season. The Columbla river from Astoria to the ; mouth of _the Willamette, and the latter to Port- land, are at this season, as quiet ap- pearing dtreams as the Moriongahela or Ohio. They ate however said to be boisteriotis after the rain fall, and as turbulent and rapid as the Mi sourl In its most ungovernable moods. On the evening of November 24th I reached PORTLAND, and since then have been busy in Tooking tip its ifiteresting features. Portland {s situited about twelve miles up the Willhumette from its junction with the Columbia, and is a city of about 20,000 inhabitants, 4000 of which are Chinamen, which latter number, of course, includes the usual few China women. They have their town, which, as usual on the coast—s right in the heart of the best part of thecity. Here, as in San Francisco, they own the buildings they occu- py—have thelr own stores of all kinds, and rarely patronize the whites. Here also, as fo *Fisco, they are an almost UNMITIGATED BVIL, 28 all know theyare au immoral race and that $00 in every sense of the word, and they are diseased with all the direct and remote results of a promisouous _cohabitatlon for sey- eral thousand yesrs back—you see them limplng along the streets with sraltlio limbe and faces blotched and wollen with venerial sores too dis- gusting for a second glance. The in- curable diseased and dying ero taken out into the streets and alleys, and left to die on the stones. If ome of these attachments to a plg-tail is seri- ously injured by accident, no surgical operation s permitted by his reli- glous brethren. No_trepanning here for broken heads; the ‘‘tom-tom” is beaten, and he is left to survive or perish, as the gods will. The result is uniformly a dead Chinaman. Wh; nighted kingdom and teach these peo- ple the proper ends of a model oivili- sation? _The morning of my last day's stay in Portland, was consumed in finding the location of THE FORMER WIFE OF JOAQUIN MILLER, Through the ald of a very obligin; polioeman T atlast found thosnccorsece of the erratic Joaquin ‘““Minnie Myrtles,” and who rejoices in the name of her present husband, Thos. E. L. Logan. After much persuasion she induced him to come out of the basement story of a tenement house, where he was engaged at his trade (bouse patating) and accompany me to his home, south and east of east Portland, about three miles, where they now live ina rented piece of land, and in a very uncomfortable board house, which shook and tre bled with every fitfal gust of the rain. laden wind. The house is, on the north, east and west, surrounded by pine and fir trees, and is boarded up- right and unpainted, with perhaps three rooma and a wood shed, under which my horse found shelter while I remained. The family at present consists of Mrs, Logsn, George and Hal Miller, her sons, the said appen- dafin Logan, and two_little orphan children, (s boy and girl) Mrs. Logan Is caring for, sod over whom, as over her own boys, she seems to exercise only the control which love gives the pomessor over the hearts and minds of children. Mra, Logan Is | oo perhaps thirty-five years of sge, of modinm highth, blue eyes and a per- fect wilderness of the blackest hair, seeming almost to shadow the thin and wasted face beneath it.

During the intarylew Mrs. Loganshowed me twogl::mphl of Miss Maugd, on the back of one of which in s plain round hand is written, “To my darlinglittle mamma from her daughter Maud.” Big tears came to the mother's eyes snd ran down over the wasted cheeks, when I thoughtlessly read aload the little le gend on the back of the ploture, and before looking up ssid, “Well, you know that although sbsent she loves you.” After a long and interesting Gonversation regarding her early 1ife and {ts happier experlences, which, woman-like, contsined many a kind remark of the father of her children.
