What t a MiaiMtnaal
We are often amuwd, when picking tip
t!ia organa of klura-brfeediiig, at their
criticism! upon Ilia qtialiuVntloni of Ha
publicun caudiilutn. According lo lliesa
ow-eyi-d critic, not one In firtjr of willed
ha. ever nmntcrtd CoWt SpIliff hook,
" Incutti in no atatcMiian." Pouglai,
Iln ckinridjfp, Jo Lanu, and John Whila
nkrr, arc, according lo IIm-m ncvi-rul wrib
Wont, all "pur rrut jtutwincn." If Sew
arJ liml bwu nominated at Chicago, and
Polf Iluiinnli itt l'lmrlcton, llie New,
Timna, Advertiser, .Si-r.tiiul, " Medina),"
nnd all the other omulgtiinatlon organ In
tiie State, would hare echoed a hearty rc
m,,,,,.,. to a statement of the leading or, on
fponse to a etutciiicnt of the leading organ
(I'oon'i K.vprc) that Heward wa no
Matcman, but tho Dtmocrati at Charh-a-ton
had buipily a iiominutcd one of the
gur-realtit atatcKinau of tho age a mull
wIioho transcendent genius had never been
eclipsed, and never could be, till ofu-f
Dunio Nuturo bad 'pent a century or two
in recuperating her energie, o much ex
hntistcd In giving birth to Dolf.
We recollect thut when Douglusnhoiked
the niorul geiisibililiu of the nntion by
nying in tho Senate, Dec. 9, 1857, " 1
ho.v't CiiiE whether Shivery ia voted up or
voted down," one of the actional organ
hero excused him by laying tlntt " Ioughi
poke n a iluletinun, and not a a moiul
hi." According to thiit authority, a
"statesman" U a mini who cherishes the
mobt perfect iudiirereiiee oi to the mull,
when rijiht grapple with wrong a man
who, when tho struggling clement of an
expiring dcxpotisin cssiiy to throtllo human
frcvduiii and place tho foot of a moneyed
aristocracy upon the neck of while laborer;
" nos'r cum" which party triuuiih in the
conflict. Tho beau Ideal of a "statesman"
with such authority, would bo ier1 person
atcd by a Cumonche Indian hut tiller
represented by a hog. According to that
authority, the Oberliu amalgamation!! and
Jo Laue urcui " stulesmuu."
Now, according to our view, one essen
tial qualification of a " dtiilesuiun" 1 an
ubility to construct a )ilutforni for a politi
cal parly, that shall take hold of the great
popular heart iu mi enlightened country
u party bused upon such living, vital,
practical and beneficial principles us cannot
fail to succied. According to that tiew,
there hasn't been a " ttatesmuu" in the
Democratic party, siuco the day that it
sold itself to become t tin tool of threo hun
dred thousand nigger capitalist, iu a God
defying, hiunaiiiiy revolting, nud damning
crusudu against thu " riyhli" of eight mill
ion of laboring whilt men. According to
thai view, Hanks, Chaso, Halo, Trumbull,
Hamlin, and all the other " statesmen" in
thu Democratic party, caino over to the
Republicans the moment that tho pnpent
were Innilo out ninl hutidcJ over to Ynnecy
nnd company, deelnring Northern D n.o
crat to be couslitulionally recognized,
henceforth ami forever, as " persons held
tq scrviee," iu a deed of conveyance made
to Yancey nud company. Since that
fatal day, no "statesman" lias been found
in the Democratic party, while thu 15o
publican party has fairly swarmed with
them. According to our views,
" statesman" mut bo able to shape the
machinery of government so nc to mako it
net iu h'lrmony with the sentiments of an
exalted Immunity, instead otdoiny vitilmce
to it. This givis a government shlniti,
Ho must bo able also in enlarging its area
by the acquisition of territory, to fortify
that territory with such constitutional
limits as to foster nud protect free labor
tbo only power that ever has, or ever will
renovate tho primeval forest, uud out of
the gront natural resources of a country
construct dwellings, erect manufactories,
build railroads, and pile up exhaustless
treasures, constituting tho personal estate
of a numerous nnd prosperous population,
-I Ins gives n government tr-M. This
was the policy of tho early fathers hence
Washington, Jefferson, Adams, and their
compeers, were, like lending Republicans,
nil " stutesmen."
A " statesman" must be a good Judge of
human nature, a man who is miliar with
the causes that havo heretofore produced
popular revolutions nnd overthrown gov
ernments ono who studies tlio greut social
tendencies of (lit age, and l0 ,om ,j
knowledge of history, nnd fuiniliarity with
tho spirit of his own times, is ublo to guard
against popular commotions, and calm nud
sootho the public mind, by removing as
fust as possible, in a constitutional manner,
nil causes that corrode and fester the public
heart. This gives a government quiet.
Ho must bo ulso uble to so t-hape tho gov
ernment that it will work equal tind ex.ht
jutliee In all--to Impartially and effectually
secure to hiuh nud low, rich and poor, the
fullest possible enjoyment of " life, liberty,
and the pursuit of happiuess." This ren
dera a people tontenltd, Anij, and pa-Inotie.
These objects being secured, and the
f overnment being administered upon the
same humane and judicious principles in its
diplomatic departments, the "statesman"

mote it be. The Farmer brings in the
'Indians,' the 'hair on animal,' anil

hurd winter. We haven't consulted any

Astoiiia, Nov. 7, 1800.
I'd. Argus; We have stn cie led In car
rying this county for Lincoln by n majority
of one vote over both wings of tho D
nun racy, notwithstanding the efforts of the
Federal ofileiuls Iu favor of Breckinridge
and Lane, and thu State and County offi
cers and the Piloting influence in favor of
Douglas und Johnson. This is quite a vic
tory for the people, when wc tako Into
consideration that tho officials and ap
pointees iu this county constitute quite n
lurge portion of our voting population.
Oil Clatsop I'lains where the farmers voted,
Lincoln hud 24 votes, whilst both the oth
ers hud only 9 which shows how the cool
und deliberate thinkers vote, when out of
the reach of thut baneful influence, which
the Democracy generally wields so potent
ly. j.
tezT ii e are in ormctl thut a day or
two before the election, W. C. Johnson, of
the R'-piiblienn county committee, scut a
lot of Republican tickets to a gentleman in
Young's precinct to bo distributed as usual.
The carrier renehed thu place of voting on
the morning of the election, and not seeing
tho person to whom they were to be de
livered, handed tho package lo Philip
Foster, one of the judges, with a request
that hu would deliver it to tho person for
whom they were intended. Foster, how
ever, on learn'ng that the package contain
ed Republican tickets pitched it into the
fire, declaring that they should have none
lint ISreekiuridgo tickets (hero that day.
The only effect it hnd, however, was .that
tho Republicans had to write their tick
ets. 1 his is a small matter, nnd wo give
publicity to it merely lo show the spirit of
tho man, believing there nro few D.-mo
crals in Clackamas county who would stoop
to an net of such despicable meanness.
SiNcn.An Wav ok Yotixu. Wc not'eo
thut iu soma localities the Electoral ticket
was split by voters. For instance, iu
Clackamas county, Dryer fell behind I'engra
and Watkins, his associates, eleven votes,
nnd in Multnomah four votes: while iu
Columbia county, the voto for tho Reputi-
iean candidates for Electors stood, Dryer
59, Pengra 40, Watkins 40. In a close
contest, such voting ns this might cost us
one or more electors. Wo hope wo shall
be better disciplined four years hence. We
l.kc the way the Republicans voted in San
Francisco. Tlio four Republican candi
dates for Electors there each received 0,
898 votes.
