A QCE3HON OF THE rOBLlO BKR TICK, AVlien nn eQort was made during the session of the last legislature to remove Prison Superlnt ntlent Downing for political reasous, The Journal opposed changing tbo lau to efR-ct bis removal. It believed it was right iu its poitiou, although to maintain that position It had to go out of its way to defend a Demo crat, and incuned the displeasure of not a few good Bepubllcuns and some Democrat. We regret to see now that Mr, Downing allowed himself to bo used by bis party, or used bis party, oue or tbo other, In a manner that Is offensive to many citizens andwblch constitutes an abuse of the public service that no intelligent voter or party wan can pats over. We admit that if the superintendent of the insane asylum and three or four of his chief lieutenants bad secured their own selection, or had been selected as delegates to the Republi can stale convention, the Democratic) press of the state would have had a great deal to say about a state ring, political bossisrn and Interference of slate officials with a neonle's con tention. If the Republicans bad done such a thing there would have beou a howl from every Democrat about state officials over-ridlug the will of the people. As n general proposi tion Interference by federal or state officials in state and county connec tions is au offensive praotlco by any party. The Journal would not hesitate to denounce the selectlon'as delegates by themselves, or by oth ers, of all the leading officials of any state institutions under Republican control Mr. Downing and bib sub onlluales owe their appointments to Governor Peunoyer and more than a mouth before the county conven tions the Governor declared that be should not attend the Democratic state convention as lie did not be' lieve in public officials attending and helping manage county and state conventions. He believed and we think correctly that a party is Lfitrengtbencd by having nominating conventions come fresh aud unre strained from the niatses of tho peo. pie. Tho manipulation by a band c' publlo officials of a county or sta'o convention wrksa peimanent In jury to the party allowing It to bo dooe, and we repeat If the Republi cans hud allowed stale officials to m mlpulato their county convention aud bicome delegates to the state convention they would have been justly open to criticism. The Journal has many readers who aie uot Republicans, aud it is only voicing their true Interests as citizens In commenting upon this matter. It hopes Its purpose lo s cure a reform in this great evil will not bo mistaken for a personal at tack upon Mr. Downing and his friends as it is not so intended. NOT KVKN AN OPPOSITION PAKTT. The Democracy of Oregon and more particularly of Marlon county possess not the great merit of being even a good opposition party. In their recent county convention they did not tako any perceptible advan tage of the situation. There was a slight cleavage In Republican ranks and the skilfully Inserted wedge of a sagacious opposition party might havo affect nl seriously the Republi can ticket. But the wedge was not inserted. Thecraok Is closed. Re publicans are united and harmonized as effectively as If the managers had stood behind the scenes and ar ranged the entlro Democratic pro gram. Tho senseless cry of the country against Salem, the usual charge of tho capital city hoggiug It all, was made use of and the re sult is a divided, disheartened, sad eyed opposition party that cannot oiler even tbo faintest obstacle to Republican success, and that as matters now stand did every pol bio foolish act to make this county solidly Republican for years. Wuatovor virtue there might be in having a vigorous opposition party at tbo capital of tbo stute, the Democratic managers havo deprived the people of Marlon county even of that. Fortunately there Is no need of opposition, as the Republican's seem to have selected au unobjection able ticket of representative citizens throughout. At the Democratic county central committee meeting tbo Democratic legislative ticket was filled lip with the candidates of the party that want government salooDs to furnish liquor nt cost offering as a solution of the moral question involved that every man carry a sixty foot tape line and measure off his own moral ity., Talking with tbe members of the Democratic inanaia'iiicnt on the streets, It was ascertained that no canvas would be undertaken by tha Democrats for their county ticket. They would try and get inscnio speeches from a big eastern orator. One Democrat opposed a publlo canynss. It hail nlways thrown Cno Republicans Into power and had no beneficial effect. A Joint canvass was the very worst thing they could enter Into. Another opposed a still hunt exclusively, for If they took to the biusb tbero would be a painful silence when it came to count tbe votes. He favored an aggressive fight. Another opposed on open fight, said n man could go around aud show himself privately ''sUM, being peon would mako votes, but a? n n le tbe Republicans could tell a better story. To get Into an argu ment was only to dilvo tho Repub licans back luto tho ranks. Bo nothing was done in tho matter. These were tbe puerile reasons of fered for abandoning their cause. This is tbe state of allalra of tbe Democratic party in Marlon county. It is not even an opposition party. When It ceases to bo that It ceases to have any reason for existence. When the minority ceases to ar raign the party responsible for local, statu and national affairs it betrays public interest. TflE POL1C1S QUESTION. There should be no buncombe or cheap John politics about tho Salem police. Whether tho city of Balem needs moro or less police, or whether they should receive moro or less compensation should be a question of Jfact. The-- number of police should be determined In a large measure by tbe opinion of tho city marshal who is chief of police. He is elected by tbe people and is re- sposlble to the people if ho gives the city a weak and inefficient police force, or if be employs moro men than are needed. The Journal be lieves the judgment of the Chief is to be respected In this matter. If he thinks ho can polico the city propeily and safely with a smaller force be should say so. Ho has Bald that bo cannot, or words to that effect. The council can easily deter mine the matter of compensation by ascertaining what Is paid tho police for similar services in other cities. To haven vigorous Independent po lice, the city should pay them good wages. The Journal Is In favor of every kind of work being well paid. It is in favor of good fair salaries for all publlo servunts oveu policemen. Their service is one where tbolr lives are constantly moro or loss in dan ger if they do their duly.

Tho peculiar "corolation" of tho plato glass, tho donkoy and tho diamond ring form an interesting study for tho proprietors of publio resorts. In Now York it requires moro vigilance on tho port of hotel detectives to pro vent this singlo act of vandalism than it does to guard against pick pockets. Tiu) other day a young man was cnugnrcutting his initialawith a diamond ring on a brand now fifty dollar plato glass window at ono of tho newest hotelB xip town. When ho was taken to task about it ho ad mitted it and treated it as a good joke. But it was no joko when ho saw this item in his bill: "For ono plato glass' window cut with diamond ring, fifty dollars." Tho vandals aro not always men.

His Neglect Causes His Wile's Death. New York, April 24. Mrs. Jesse Carnegie hri died in tbe Harjem hospital. Dropsy and consumption wore tho Immediate cause of death, but her husband's neglect and abuse, It is charged, were largely responsi ble.
