"Tli Republican convention met in
Ibii Cilj last Saturday, and adjourned over
(o ot'El Saturday, A r il 21, to nominal
coumjr ticket.
Tlie nationals met ai Eugene City on Ike
8lli intt.i and nominated the following
ticket : For Representative to Congrru,
j. K. Kelly of Clackamat ; Governor, E.
M. Darnum of Polk ; Scerrtsrj of Slate,
K.A.Rice of Josephine; State Taeaturer,
J. L. Brumley of Lane; State 1'rinter,
James O'.Meara of Portland.
So far at men are concerned, tlie ticket
it quite respectable one. If by indorsing
the meo,, voters were not called upon to
indorse a rotten platform, there would be
lesi objection to intelligent and honest pa
triots among the nationals supporting the
ticket than there happens to be jttat now.
That our rcaJers may see the platform
for themselves, we give it iu full :
Resolved, That we adopt and endorse
the principles ami sentiments proclaimed
by, and promulgated from the National
Democratic Convention which met at Cin
cinnati, in June, 1 6o0, fur our political
text book, and that we accept no other ar.
lielet of faith than are in them contained.
Resolved, That we have confidence in the
integrity of the Democratic Administration
of the Union and will ever give in our alio.
4jiar.ee to the support of Demooralio meat
ures and to the advocacy nf properly chosen
exponents and standard-bearers el the Dem
ooralio cause.
Resolved, Thut we believe in the cardin
al principles of popular sovereignty end in
the rilil of the people of the Territories, as
well as of the Suites, to fr.nne And adopt
'their constitutions and all local laws for
their own government consistent with and
agreeably to tho constitution of the United
State.
' Resolved,' That we re. assert the great
principles nf the right of the represented to
instruct the representative and proclaim it
the bounden duly of tho representative to
obey the insi ructions of his constituents or
tetign whatever position ho may at that
time hold.
. Rosolved, That we heartily npprove anJ
gratefully acknowledge the wi?o stigges
ioni and potent services of President Buch
anan in behalf of the earliest practicable
construction of the Pacific Railroad.
' There is the kite upon which tho na
tionals are expected to go tip. The follow
ing is the tail of il :
. Rosolved, That we have full confidence
in the ability of our esteemed Delegate in
"Congress lion. Joseph Lane and that
lie merits the approbations of the Democ
racy of Oregon, for the untiring zeal and
devotion he bos manifested in his efforts to
procure our admissien into the Union and
secure the payment of our War Debt.
We hve not room this week to sny what
we desire lo in regard to this platform, ow
ing to the lute hour that wo got hold of it.
"While the pi ut form is not as palpably nnd
pointedly pro-slavery as we feared it would
bo, yet, in indorsing the " Democratic Ad
ministration," it as positively sanctions ts
words cnuld do tho frauds, usurpations, and
tyranny that make up the Lecompton pol
icy of the present Administration. In this
platform there is not a single issue made
with the Sulorn dynasty upon the great
question 'which now convulses the natiou
in regard to the right of the people of a
Territory to adopt or reject a constitution
'before it is fastened upon them by Con
gress. Il as to bo expected that the Sa
lom dynasty would indorse any kind of
fraud and villainy that might bo inaugu
rated at Washington, but we saw no par
ticular necessity for the nationals taking
sides with an Administration which lias
driven the honest men out of tho party in
almost every free Slate. If they had ta
ken sides with Douglas, there might have
teen some show for their success. Their
great love for Jo Lane will be appreciated
by some o( the nationals down this way.
If such men as Cullurd, llees, Starkweath
r, and Judge Olds of Yamhill can be in
duced to gulp down this platform without
making a wry face, their dirt eating capac
ities are greater than we had supposed.
We have thought from the beginning
that this republican movement was prem
ature and unwise, and wes'ill think so.
It see tin 10 have originated with a few men
in and Hlmut Oregon City, who without
Constitution with other portions of the ter
ritory, and without the know ledge or con
sent of those w ho have a riulit to erf we at
least, in matters of this kind, called the con
vention, adopted their platform and nomina
ted their candidates." Oregonian.
So fur as the Republican movement hav
ing originated in and about Oregon City,
without consultation with other portions of
the Territory, we suppose the Oregonian
alludes to the fact that the Argus has
steadily, persistently, and zealously advo
cated Republican priocrolct since the first
grand Republican movement was inaugu
rated ia the'Sialtu; ana ja baa, eita, far
nearly two years, as steadily and persist
ently continued to advocate thorough
Republican organization in Oregno, based
upon sound national principle, at the only
effective method of eventually placing the
adminittrution of the Government in honrtt
and capable handt. In doing this, while
we may have done so " without the know!
edge or consent of those who had a right to
advhe," we have tho satisfaction of having
tuken the " advice" of our own judgment
and of having acted in accordance with a
conviction of duty. The path of duty lay
ing before us, we chose to step into it
"without conferring" with flesh and blood,
or going up to the Salem Sanhedrim, or
even down to Portland to confer with our
much-esteemed, and highly-gifted, quoo
dam fellow. laborer of the Oregonian, who
then thought, note thinks, and probably
aluinyi will think, a Republican organiza
tion "premature." Of course, if Mr great
objection to the rotten dynasty at Salem,
and the equally tietchcrous, anti-republi
can, and rotten one at Washington city,
lies in tin fact that they are "party organ
izations," then of course it is high time to
ditbsnd, and after having ignored all or
ganization, conventions, and platforms,
make a universal proclamation that the
field is entirely open to every self-inflated
apirant to office, who knows no higher
principles than merely "opposition to tho
democracy," and who has no other views
of a correctly conducted campaign than an
rena containing the well-drilled, system
atized, and eflicered black -democracy on
one side, and a conglomerate host of the
odds and ends of the opposition on the oth
er, divided and wrangling among them
selves, and cut up into some half dozen
qunds, each headed by piobably as many
independent candidates, each carrying his
platform pasted to his back, and all con
tained in UA pitcher into the democracy."
While such a scramble may once in
twenty years result in an overthrow of the
modern democracy, by the laws of chance,
(see Harney' Algebra,) the demecrocy,
falsely so called, will find themselves snug
ly installed as the head of the government
nineteen years out of twenty. This is so,
and any man might to see it, through only
an ordinary pair of leather spectacles.
We understand the getters-up of this
republican movement strenuously insist
upon organization as all important to suc
cess. This carries with it the admission
that the pcoplo will merjje their individual
ity into party organization, which is the
h ading feature of the Salem plulform or
ganization, nguinsl which the great mass
cf tho republicans have mado war." Or
egonian. So then tho Oregonian has made
the discovery at last that the great objec
tion to the Salem dynasty consists in tho
fact that the dynasty is a "party organi.
zation." Of course tho same objection
stands Dgainst the "Nationals," Ameri
cans," and all other parlies. "The old
line whig" forces, which are at present dis
banded and scattered to the four winds,
must be with the Oregonian the beuu
ideal of a genuine opposition to the de
mocracy. The conviction that " the people
will not merge their individuality into a
party organization," was what probably
once iaduced the editor of the Oregonian
to run up his name at his mast-head as a
candidate for tho Legislature "indepen
dent of parly" when his name at the tame
time occupied a place in the tame paper at
a regular nominee of the Know Nothing
party,
u Uard Dcmocracy.'l
Czapkay's organ, iu noticing Rev. W.F.
Doyokin's paper iu Illinois, boasted that
Doyakin was a " hard." We make a few
extracts from Doyokin's paper of Feb. 27lh,
as samples of 11 hard (!) democracy" :
" Mr. Douglas, in this report, ransacks
the whole field of controversy in Kansas,
beginning nt tho very first of it, and comes
up lo the present date nnd with data of
facts in tho history of Kansas legislation,
proves bare faced, intended, consuinmale
fraud in tho Lecompton constitution ; and
thut, at the lowest estimate, two thirds of
the pcoplo of Kansas have, in a legal way,
at the ballot box, repudiated it. Besides,
Mr. Doujjlns' argumemts should satisfy
any intelligent mind, that the Lecompton
and the Topeka constitutions are both aliko,
illegal, and should both alike be n jected.
Mr. Douglas' views throughout, are di
rcct!y opposite to .Mr. Buchanan's, in his
special message ; and while ho speaks
respectably of the President, he explicitly
denounces his views. These two great
Stutrsinon are on this question, directly
oppoiite each other.
"The truth is, Mr. Ruchanan has seen
fit, most evidently, to sympathise with the
South in this grenl question, at the expense
of the Kansas Nebraska bill ; nnd by a sys
lent of Administrative cognizance to South,
em duplicity, and pro-slavery propngnnd
ism will come nigh, if not entirely, fasten
ing on the people of Kansas a constitution
against their will. I!ul the North mnsi
meet and defend it, if in the range of hu
man effort." '
"The South in all this, has acted very
unwUi ly, for by the passing of this bill, all
parlies of the North will fuse into opposi
tion to the South, and make to clearly
defined, political parlies of the nation, one
North, the other South ; The North hav
inn very largely the preponderance, will
fail in the future to be as conciliatory as
heretofore."
In noticing the fact that a Methodist
teacher of a High School in Nashville,
Tennessee, had raised a muss tmong his
brethren by introducing dancing into hit
school, Doyakin says:
" Cat we simply eotice the mere exer
cise of youthful sportivroes, under the eye
ef parental teachers, if called dancing, is a
great sit), while the holding tbosMrhJ of
men and women in the chains of siarerr,
buying and selling them separating
liusbanu anil wue, parents aim con
dren. ko.. is wholly unnoticed even sane
tilled wilh Patriarchal examiil. Verily,
a man must have lost his appreciation of
consistency, at least, lo become a christian
on these terms I No wonder the world is
skeptic I"
If that Is " hard democracy," wt should
like to know what liucbanan would call
"soft democracy."
Doyakin seems to have his eye skinned
to the faot that the fire-eaters, in putting
ihelr hook through the nose of Buchanan,
have driven the great mats of the Northern
democracy into the ranks of tbe Republi
cans. We might add that roost of the Dou
glas organs squint very strongly that way.
(r How fortunate it was that our con.
sliiutional convention met and submitted
iba whole constitution to the people before
Ruchsnan had fully inaugurated bis Kan
sas policy of forcing a slavery constitution
upon the people without permitting a single
man lo vote against it. Such Is the blind
and truckling subserviency of the Oregon
Democracy to party, at evinced in their
late resolutions indorsing Ruchanan, that
if the convention for framing a constitution
had been delayed till now, we doubt not
the Democracy would have acted on Buch
anan's suggestion, and refused lo submit
the constitution to the people.
fcT The present Administration it like
ly to make good tbe prediction of the St.
Louis News that it would make a finish of
Democracy in every free State where poor
Pierce had failed to exterminate it. We
see that in Now Hampshire, II. Rumncy,
late Democratio leader in the Legislature,
Sullivnn, an influential party leader, and
Judge Sargent, late Democratic Speaker of
the House, havo renounced black democ
racy, and united with the Republicans.
The papers slate that the rank and file of
the Democracy are joining the Republicans
by the hundred.
TUe New Cold Mine.
The following diulogue actually occurred
between a Democrat and a citizen this
wcrk :
Dem. What is your opinion of llioje
new gold mines on Prazic-r's river we bear
so much about !
Citizen. My opinion is, the mines will
turn out to be very extensive nnd very rich.
Dein. What is your reason for thiuk-
ing so
fit. I believe it, and have believed it
for nine years, from information I received
of that country from old mountaineers in
California in 1340. Resides, I have seon
in the Herald printed at Steilacoom a state
ment that the Hudson's Bay Company at
Victoria have taken in one hundred and ten
pounds of gold dust from the Indians within
the last month, which was all taken from
stirfaco diggings by means of the rudest
implements.
Dem. What is the character of the
Herald for veracity f
Cit- Good, so far as I know. It is a
new paper, neutral in politics; besides, I
eannot conceive what objeot it would have
in getting up an excitement, unless it
would be to draw a crowd lo Washington
Territory. In that case, when the decep
tion was found out, it would operate much
to the injury of the paper.
Dom. Yes ; I see no reason really why
a paper would intentionally misrepresent a
thing of that kind ; but then you know
people judge of tho correctness ef news a
good deal from the character of the pap?r
it is pl'Micd in, For instance, when !
seo a statement in The Argus I place a
good deal of reliance on it; whereas, if 1
should see the same statement in the Times
I should give no sort of heed to it.
Cit. Very true; but your best way is
to w ait till you are sure of the truth of the
report beforo you atari, even if you have
any notion of going to the mines. But, if
they are ever so rich, I am not sure but we
had better stay at home and work on, rais
ing produce for tbe mining consumers. If
the country is again flooded with gold, the
man who stays at home and is industrious
will be just as well ofT in the long run, if
not belter than he who goes lo the mines.
Besides, he will run no risks of life and
health, and will bo comfortably housed
and fed.
Bern. I shouldn't wonder.
Cit. I was here in '48, at the time the
California gold excitement carried ofT so
many, and in looking around among our
citizens now, I find that those who stayed
at home, cultivated their farms, attended
lo iheir stock, and nursed tho babies, are
fully as well off as those w ho went to Cal
ifornia and made from 8-30 to 8100 a day.
Dem. Speaking of "stock," reminds
me that the Oregonians didn't take very
good care of it last winter.
Cit. Very trne. From the best infor
mation I have, not less than 9100,000
worth of stock died this spring out of pure
starvation, showing a shameful and culpa,
ble neglect on the part of their owners in
providing feed. Now, suppese the people
run off to the mines, and fail lo prepare
fur next winter, which will probably be a
hard one instead of losing 8100,000
worth, they will no doubt lose three times
that amount, besides failing to save two
millions' worth of produce which, being
put together, make the harxLome sum of
two million and three hundred thousand
dollars as a dead loss amounting probably
to more than two thirds of all the gold that
would ever reach as from the mines.
Counting io the damage sustained from
the stagnation of improvements, and tbe
minus side would overbalance the plus.
Dem. Yet. I see how it is. Those who
go to tho mines may do well, whilu those
who stay at home and use their lima prop,
erly are tun to, and, like the returned
Californian who " went to California wilh
his wash-bowl on his knee," they may con
sole themselves that Id working the "dig
gings" at home
" Bv the course of naler.
They'll find lomrgold in every later."
OCT The Pioneer & Democrat and the
Herald of W. T. both state that from the
most reliable information the Hudson's Bay
Cnrapsny at Victoria have taken in within
a few months one hundred and ten pounds
of coarse gold, which had been picked up
by the Indisnt In the new diggings on Pre
tier's and Thompson's river. There has
btea a general stampede of lumbermen,
day. laborers, and citizens, besides a pretty
general desertion from the regular soldiery
for the new El Dorado, where those who
have gone out are reported to be making
from $8 to 930 a day, with the constant ex
pectation of soon striking upon the fo"
lain head of all the gold veins in the
worl
