The Oregonian, when corner ed, lies and calls . names. The Gazette is termed by the mort gaged imbecile, "an utterly shameless and irresponsible cor- nirtirTi5st." Ti,.. nAr.KTTE' discharges its ,itv faithfully to the public and, Vov';nIr 1 tAear conscience, ' has. a vf tn Yp shameless. . It has rViplrl the anarchists at Sa- lem. It has not praised the plo I ting of pelt ana popuijsjii in uic interest of ambition" and ??nate.! It has not denounced men for ex their political indepen- a o oea n A th en crawled on its belly before these men and kiss because they vio lated their personal promises and Antv. . It, has not called the lepislature. in threaten ing e-B-prmtions. to save the state $500,000 uselessly expended, and then servily excused those legis lator who have made any legis lation impossible. Its policy is not dictated by any mortgagee It has every reason to be without shame. " The Gazette, while fairly successful financially, has not the funds, had it the inclination, to be a "corruptienist." It could nnt in mw event, contest with such a liberal corruptionist as the real proprietor 01 wc fw. land imirnalistic wanton, i known to be. The Corvallis GAZETTE not be shamed by that organ .of populism and political depravityy the Portland Oregonian. PETTY.

No sane editor would have .. pub lished such utter madness as this: "George Brownellt . senator from Clackamas, went out of his way yesterday to makaii attack on the editor ot tne Uregonian. Beyond all comparison: pr compe tition. Brownell is lower in the estimation of the .people of Ore gon than any man they know, He is contemptible' and dispica- ble, beyond all comparison. To the honor of human nature, let it be said that no man in Uregon, from the beginning till now, ever had such alacrity in sinking to depths below depths in the es timation of all who have known him. No word or pledge of his, -of any kind, on any subject, wouli be taken for anything. Browttell was elected in Clacka -mas before the people of the -county ijfoUHd him out; They will not elect him again. He is -detested and despised by all men ,and by all parti ss alike."
