There is no royal or po litical path from poverty to wealth. The passage is through the painful plains of self-denial, over the rocks of hard lalwr, through the tolls of honesty, but the end thereof Is peace and plenty. These self- evident truths the negroes ol Tuskcgeehave learned, and therefore are wiser than many of their white brethren. Chicago Inter Ocean. ItKl't'ltUOAN t'tU'NTY C0NYKNT10N.

The nominee for governor on the republi can ticket should be a man of affairs who understands in a practical way tbe needs of tbe people, taking into account the rights of the farmer, the laborer, the manufacturer, the business man and the capitalist. He ahould be a successful business man, to the end that he may administer tbe affairs of alate economically and successfully. He ahould have an extended acquaintance throughout the state and be intelligently informed concerning all sections of tbe commonwealth so that be may administer in tbe interest of all without prejudice or partiality. He should be well informed con cerning tbe history, laws and customs of the state, to enable him to act intelligently and in conformity with the precedents hereto fore established. He should be a good judge of human nature, capable of discrim inating between right and wrong, and stead fast and upright in purpose, so that he will not fear to execute tbe laws in accordance with his convictions. He must be honest, intelligent, reliable and trustworthy, so that LSI classes may have confidence in his in tegrity and ability. With a man possessed of these qualities the republican party may enter the campaign with a confidence in spired by the certainty of success. It will be the pleasure of the delegation from Clackamas to present to the state convention the name of such a man in the person of Captain JohnT. Apperson, one of (he oldest and best known residents of the state. Mr. Apperson is a pioneer, having arrived ( in Oregon in 1847, since which time he has been intimately associated with the factors entering into the building np and develop, nieut of this state. He bas served Clacka mas county acceptably as sheriff, represen tative in the lower house and state senator. He bas been intimately associated with the Slate Board of Agriculture as an active member for over twenty ,years, and was for ten years president of tbe society. His father died while crossing the plains leaving bis mother with a large family dependent upon ber efforts and those of the older children, of whom John was tbe eldest boy. He bad, therefore, not only to make his own way but to assist bis mother in caring for and educating the younger members of tbe family. Whilst his career bas been eminently successful it will be seen from the above tbat be is a self-made man, hav ing risen by bis own unaided efforts from a poor boy to a successful farmer and breeder. He combines all the sterling qualities which lit him in an eminent de gree to act as the standard bearer of the re publican party of which he has always been an active, aggressive member. fthnuld the convention in its wisdom make Mr. Apperson the nominee for gov ernor it w ill insure to the stale for the com ing four years a w ise, economic and honest adniinis ration of the affairs of state in a manner acceptable to the people and cred itable to the party nominating him. It would, moreover, be a fitting and just rec ognition of the republican party in Clack amas county which has almost without ex ception returned majorities for the ticket, although it bas never been recognized by a place on the ticket.

I SAN rKANCISCO I.KTTKR. Svn Francisco, March .V ToTiutKniToH: I shall never come to California again to find beautiful weather. There has been wind, and rain, and froat, and even snow, ever since I arrived, and it is raining today. There bas only been two nice days In two weeks. The Californians say "it Is unus ual;" it may lie, but I have hra.ii Oregon ians use that term so much as applied to the weather that 1 have some doubts of Its ve racity, I have about ten days yet lo re main, ami if the California weather man does not redeem the reputation of the stale for sunshine and Mowers" in that time I shall not fall very deeply In love with the climate. The mid-winter fair Is suffering in attend ance somewhat from (he effects of the weather; but it Is giving a chance to finish np the work and to get in all the exhibits. April and May will be the best time lor Ote gonlans to visit the fair, as by that time everything will he completed, and spring time will have come. Last Saturday was, however, a great day, it being Vermont day at the lair. Tbe Rev. J. II.

Thev no longer merely seek to obstruct the passage of the Wilson bill until the silver bill shall have received attention, but now proclaim their hostility to tbe bill as a measure threatening the possibility of agricultural prosperity. Commenting on this change of heart, the Inter Ocean says: No lessons are so forcible as object lessons. We are alraid that the populists still cherish the fiction of possibility of agricultural prosper ity concurrent with manufacturing and commercial adversity. We are afraid that they still would rejoice were protection w ith- drawn from lumber, salt, iron, and manu factured woolens; but they have learned tbat protection is necessary to the producers eral of the mid-winter fair.Gen.

With out bounties or protective tan lis the beet sugar factories soon will close their doors. Having learned so mucb, it may be ex pected that the populists soon will learn that without protection to manufacturers the wage fund must shrink, and when tbat shrinks the consumption of sugar, wool, and other farm products will shrink. LO! THE POOR JVEGRO. A few days since there was a conference of negroes at Tuskegee, Alabama, many of whom were born in slavery, and all of whom are poor, though a few of them own Und, and one of them is a stockholder in a county bank as well a a land owner. But to a man they were poorer a few years ago than they now are, yet these illiterate ne groes showed an appreciation of the princi ple of success which might well be emula ted by tbeir white brethren. They have snfierid under all those inequalities of na tional law of which northern populists com plain and under inequalities cf state laws ucti as no northern populists would en dure. Yet tbey did not pass resolutions in complaint of silver laws, of tariff laws, or laws of any kind. They just re solved to Keep out 01 uent, 10 maxe tneir ex penditures fall within the limits of their in comes, to educate tbeir children more thor oughly than tbey themselves have been ed ucated, to abstain from intoxicants, to di versify their agiculture, to pay their debts, to honor their women, to demand scrupu lous observance of the moralities from their pastors, and, so far as manly principles per mit, to live in peace witb all men. Contrast these sensible resolutions with In bis letter to the state young men's re publican club, (senator Dolpb said: "At the June election in Oregon the first member of tbe fifty-fourth congress will be elected. The legislature, which elects my successor in the senate, is to be chosen. The election will have a great influence upon the fall election. Its Influence will tie far-reaching. Should the Wilson bill, in its present or a modified form, pass the senate, the In jury it will work to the country cannot be remedied until the republicans again con trol the United States senate. The matter of a United States senator in Oregon is of far more importance than a question be tween individuals or even parties. The political complexion of the United States senate for years may depend upon it, as well as tbe time which must elapse before the country can be relieved from thedis astrous consequences of unwise legislation by the democratic majority in congress. Every interest of the people of Oregon, the material prosperity of every man, woman and child in the state is at stake in the ap proaching political contest. I am glad the conventions will be held early, aflording time for the fullest discussion of all the questions at issue, believing that the past history of the repuhliran party, its present purposes and the purposes and principles of tbe democratic party as well as the pres ent most unsatisfactory condition of busi ness will, if thoroughly discussed, prove that the return'of prosperity, the revival of business, the employment of labor and the happiness of the people can only be secured by the return to power of the republican party and the maintenance of the protec tive policy. Thi bill granting to New York, Brooklyn and adjacent cities the right to vote upon the question of consolidation bas passed both branches of the legislature and been signed by the governor. Should it be ac cepted by the people of the teritory in cluded in the Incorporation it would make New York about tbe third largest city in the world. moli that times were good In that stale. and hesaiil the reason was that its citizens were i'ltenselv American that very few of them held tbeir first allegiance to a foreign power, politically or religiously, but that the successers of such men as Ethan Allen of Fort Ticonderoga fame were loyal to America and to our country's free institu tions, and hinted that the time hail come when the American people should decide whethee this country belonged to Americans or to foreigners holding their lirst allegiance to a foreigh prince or person. One thing said by Gen. Alger brought down the house. He said in the beginning of his seech that at one time In his life It embarrassed him to stand before governors, but that after he had been made a governor himself he lost that embarrassment, and it now embarrassed him to stand before the voters who make and unmake governors and presidents in this country. Withal it was a grand day, never to be forgotlon by those who participated in it. Now, Mr. Kditor, lest I weary your read- I eis I will close.
