Made at Oregon t'ltj, Ma; 10th, 1806.
Fellow Cithent: We are now engngetl in
fine nf the most important pnlitionl contests
that has ever heen submitted to the sufTrBgei
of the American people. I (peak of this con
tost .in which we are now engaged, anil whioh
we most docide lor Oregon at the ballot box
on the ftmrlh day nf the ensoing month, -as
the most Important In nur Itlalory ar a nation
of freemen, because nf the character of the
noestlons submitted to our judgment, and of
me innnence winon our decision may exercise
upon the weal or woe nf the nation.
From Ihe storm and exoitement nf the most
gigantic civil wnr of whioh history furnishes
uny account, to the comparative quiet and
tranquility which our victorious armies hare
poured to tlie whole nation, wo bring Ihe issue
and questions, nnt only of the war itself, but
of the manner of ita settlement, for final ad
justment, liennb-4 lllAt- aupiomo and envorign
arbiter the voice of the people.
Wo hear mildl 'talk ahnnt "lielno- laanna
and "dead issues," of "liecoiistrnotinn," of
"(he President's plan," nnd nf Ihe "plan of
vuo8ioee. niuftinjrs nre oeing nt'hl all over the
State, just at this time, ninl crery preolnot Is
being industriously and vigorously canvassed,
hy all parlies. I rejoice for one liint this is to,
It is well for our liherlles, that this freedom ol
discussion, is so fully exeroised. It woe well
said by Jefferson, that wo have nothing to fenr
from error, when reason is left free to oomlmt
it. Muy the day never come, wherf the Aiueri
oan pcoplo. shall becomo Indifferent to the
fettlonient of any of I ho questions which con
cern ;i he duiies and poivere nf the govern
ment or the rights of the people. Hut in all
this discussion, it should be the very first duty
of every tiitin, to sift Ihewheat from the chnff.to
separate Ihe facts of the post and present,
from Hit- mere assertions of men who nmy have
mine personal and selflsh purposes to subserve,
and to weij;h tho rrusiins submitted to your
oonsideruliun by the balances of your own
mind, it is not my purpose, gentlemen, to
abuso ihe views of any mau or party, or at this
lime to heap opprobrium upon those who diner
from me. further than the truth requires.
Permit me to consider yon as "Gentlemen or
Ihe jury." to lliut when I shall have stilled
what I believe to be the "living issues" of the
present political contest, nnd after I have in
troduced my witnesses, and have stated my
reasons-, you may he. prepared to render an
impaninl venliot fur or ngiiinst the party or
which 1 am tin hnmlile member, if I may
he allneel to slate ono single ami general
proposition, nilh reference to vthat I expect to
say. it would bo this: That vnm all the "lit
iiiff utuet-' of lite dah the 'to called Demo
cratic party it not oiilv on the wrnnir i,r. hut
it is in direct opposilum to, the principles of '
Monroe, Jackson and all the great leaders of
7)j.a.irf. .'.. it. 1 .1 r
'"y " "c imifs uj 11a purity ,- unu ill!
proposition I will ruUenror to prove.
The platforms of politico! partiea generally
present the questions nt issue between Ihe
niirtieej but since the yenr ISCfl, there has
been Hie qm-slion ol loyally or devotion In Ihe
U. 8. Government, In I ho National Union
which hns funned I ho main iesne at every eleo
linn, although rtudiuiisly dodged and avoided
by iliu opponents nf tho Union parly. And
now Unit the rebellion ngaiust Hie Union bus
been suppressed, this qtieslinit of InviiltV to the
Union, utlnchea iih quite as much fiirue In
Ihe candidate as it fur rly did to the pint-
form. To show ihu pertinence of this remark,
let os suppose that tho Dciuncrnlb mirtr
shnuld aottmlly adopt nur Union platform, ami
place on llieir ticket men who had dinlingiiished
themselves as nlTioors of tho armies or govern
ment nf Hid Sotitlierii Confederacy, would It
inn. nr proper mr true Union men to stiuru
such a party, anil while even mnkiiig no issue
won intt pintlnriii. allnck as a set ol traitors?
Most assuredly so. This) qnestioti of
fo the Union during the war, conies in now,
under tlie head ol personal qiiuhfictilinns, or
triistwnrthinesa for ofOce; ami is a lust and
proper lomilcration. and mm not to lie over
liwked or forgotten by nny people Jealous of
their ritjlilat and liberties. I refer to it hero,
because it is not directly raised lit- the two
pliilfnriiis. but to show that it Is one of Hie
"liring issues" nlhe cause, and will discuss
it lielore 1 grt through.
Iu exnmiiiiog the plntlnrini of Ihe respec

less the amount nf taxable tironertv on the as
sessment roll, the higher must be Ihe rate uf
taxation to raise the necessary funds to carry
on the government. And taking the figures
as they stand oil the records of the Stale, we
find that a comparison of the first three yrgri
ol the Union administration, with the first three
years of Demncratie role, give Hie Union
party eight millions or eleven per tent less laxa

this looks like a jnslifk-atinu nf the charge
made by Ibe Democracy in Iheir platform;
but Id as examine this balance ami see whelli
rr II is real 1. 1 us see whether there has not
hero ertra demands ou the treasury fur this
balsnee. Hy reference In the reports nf the
Secretary of Stale, we find Hist from IW-J to
ISfiH, there has been paid wit of the Treasury
the sum of a little over jO.oon, on aoooont of
the Oregon Penitentiary, aud fur the same
time, the sum of J ! '4M uu account of the
iuMue and lli.lio peirnni Hunan npon the

gether, give $l4fl,2f)S, of money neoessarilr
and onavnitlably paid nut on twosnbjeots with
wnicli tuo Uemnorats had nothing to on. And
when we therefore offset this extra tax upon
the state, these new items of expense, strains!
the apparent balance of (83,718.93 in favor nf
Democracy, we find that it leares a real bal
ance nf over sixtv-lieo ihousand dollars Iu
favor of the Union administration, supposing
an oiner tilings to 00 rqnai. llut in trie outer
items of State expense, the comparison does
not stand upon an equality. A new judicial
Distriot and fonr new counties have heen
oreatetl east nf the Cnsoadee, and that added
len thousand dollar more tn the Union col
onins. 'rolling all theso fignre together, add
ing Ihe $10,000 for the new judgeship, wo have
$72,000 In favor of the Union udtninistratinii,
a comparison or Iho two administration
on items of ordinary and necessary
expenses; showing that wilh a less amount of
tumble property, the Union party has carried
en the State government, and saved nearly
one half the money which Democracy expend
ed; or In other words, the State government
in Union hands his cost only a littlo more than
over half It did in Demom-utio hands ou a com
parisnn of necessary expenses. , It it probably
true that tho rate of luxation is a littlo higher
in '1864 tlmu in 18G0; but it lias been demand
ed by necessary expenses. It is no eredlt to
Deinoornor Ihnt it did not expend more limn
It did. When it points to Its low figures, we
point tn tho convicts breaking out of your
ftitoe of n penitentiary, at all hours, to again
rub and kill, and heonnio new scourges and
lorrora to Ihe people; to Ilia insane scattered
throughout tho State, oonliiied in log prisons,
chained like wild beasts, destitute of curative
treatment, and paupers at tho expense of In
dividual oounliea. What money Demooracy
dill expend went solely into Ihu pockets of tho
nfticu holders; and that party cannot to d ,y
point to a single Statu improvement of any
kind, which mnrks Its control of the Stale.
Such government as Hint is useless, and worse
than useless, because under itsooiely will nrr
er progress or improve. A great ado wns
made about Ihe bonds for the Oregon volun
teers. Democracy oven begrudged the pit
tance of five dollars per mouth, to the soldiers
who volunteered lo protect Iho frouniier. at
greenback wages. Two of Iheir candidates
311 tho State tickot voting against it in the
Legislature, but now as they want soldier
voles, they say but little about It. Let them
howl about that, nil they can. They are wel
come lo all Ihe good It will do tliem. But, as
strong testimony as can lie offered to repel Ihe
ohitrge of wasting the public limit, ia fcrnish
ed by Democrats themselves. At the Special
-essoin nf the Legislature a joint Committee
uf three from each house, consisting ol Sena
tors J no W. Grim, A. U. Hovey, and C. M.
Cai.uwrm, n Democrat; and Representatives
J. II. Underwood. Wilson Bnwlby, and LA
FAYETTE LANE now the Democratic can
didate for Secretary of State, were appointed
to investigate tho financial condition of Ihe
State. That Committee unnuimoosly made
ihe following report both Ihe Democrats
signing ill ,
" To the lsri.lalire Atnemit) of Ike State of Ore
gon Y'oiirJ.i iii Committee app dtitcd In examine Into

bounty bonds authorised by law. This work is alone
for more onerous than the entire duties of the office,
prior In that helnjr Imtio-ed.''
And this report was signed by oach of the
gentlemen named above.
From the, considerations wo aro warranted
in pronouncing the charge ef the Democracy,
that Ihe pnblio money has been "nnlawfally
and shamefully squandered," positively false.
More than that, grutlomen, the finances of the
state have been so managed by ihe Union par
ty, that tho rale of taxation is less tn Oregon
titan in any other Stat of the Union. We
scarcely know what taxation is yet. It Is on
ly five and a half mills for State purposes In
Oregon, while it is nearly twenty mills on the
dollar for Slate purpose in California. This
charge which lie been bundled against the
slate olUoials, and Ihe Union Legislature, ,y
1110 ritpnerueaii press, lor Hie past two years, is
totally false. The finances of tlie Stale hare
neen well managed liy Hie Union party, and
1 u this snore it is entitled to the confidence and
support of the people.
Not only Hie finance of the Slate, lint also
Ihe financial n (fairs nf the several omiiilies.
have been economically and judiciously man
aged by tlie Union party. Tttke for example
the following cutiiilies:
Umalilla County was nrganixed In IrVKi. un
der Union ollicers, by appointment. The as
sessable property for Hint rear amounted to
I33H.0D0, and liie affair of tho county well
managed and money saved una tax of 18 mills
on the dollar. At the election in 18414. Ihe
democrats carried ihu county, the Union offi
cers tnrned over to the democrats 2.200 in
cash, and no outstanding scrip. In 1805, the
assessame property ran up to SJ 1.(177.403, and
the dumocrnts levied a tax of 24 mills 1 n the
dollar. And, notwithstanding the nsnessment
roll ha been trebled. Democracy ha raised
rate nf taxation six mills on Ihe dollar, have is
sued nearly ten thousand dollars County scrip
for debts, and buve nothing to showfar'il, s ive

ruom. which was purchased with tbe funds
saved by the Union officers. L.mk at Jack

purptaies was 12 mills on the dollar, on an as
srssment mil ol (l.40().430,wlili a oonnty debt
of 110,037. After the oouuiy passed into Ihe
hand nf Ilia Union men in 181)2. the asses,

down, and in 1803 the Union officers succeeded
ill reducing literate nf tnxallon for oonnty pur

have also something to say on litis qoeetlnn;
but tliev speak of it a the disgraonful and dis

In 1803, when Hie government was hard

wllh a vigor' and success worthy of a better
oattsej Congress passed an aot authoring

holder. Now tho Democrat propose, that
after tlie government ha got the money under
snob a contract as this, and put down the re
bellion with It, lliut we ought lo back oaf of
th'i enntraot. .That tbe Government ought to
do wnre than "greenback" lite luindtioblrr,
it onght lo repudiate the bargain. Now 1 ap
peal to any honest and honorable man,' any
and every man with a spark of manhood above
n common thief, to say whether It 1 right,
jost. honest nr honorable for the United State
government to Iho repudiate Its fair contracts?
Snpnnsu that neighbor A being in very strait
ened ciroomstanoe, having lost a great deal
of his property, nud was engaged in a vexa
tious, expensive and very dangerous lawsuit,
tlutt might p.waibly sweep away every dollar
he bad left in tlie world, should go to B for
ascislnnce, and should propose to him to bor
row one thousand dollars to pay lawyers' fee,
witnera feet, fco. in his lawsuit; and to giva
therefor hi own obligation to repay the money
with interest, and on agreement to pa all tax.
es 00 tbo same.,. And B knowiog that bid only
hope to get bis money- book, if be loaned It,
was the success of Ihe lawsuit, but feeling
friendly to bint, was willing to take the chan
oe. loans the the money, takes the obligation,
and thereby savee tbe whole properly of bia
neighbor to him and his family. And now af
ter he has rendered this aot or kindness, wnulJ
it not bo ungrateful, unjust, and dishounrabla
in tbe extreme, to have A turn around and
repudiate, uie t'Uxes", part-ol the bargain.
Every riglit-inindrd honorable man would de
noutiue suoh a trick in bis neighbor. Just so
it it with ihe United State. These bond,
holders loaned their money tn the government
in the midst of the most terrible, devastating
civil war on record, waged to destroy Hie gov
ernment that was needing tho money, and at
the very darkest hour of onr national peri'd.
aud without any mortgages, collateral security
or anything nf that kind, these bond holder
loan tbeir money, taking for it the contract we
have described. They loaned Iheir money,
when copperheads were declaring that govern
ment was di-strnyed, broken np, and its note
nnt worth even to mncb as tile paper on wbiob
they were Written loaned it to save tbe gov
ernment from destruction, and lo preserve it
with ell il blessing and fret iratilntiona, for
all, without distinction nf party. And now
I ty that the man or tbo party, who would
make war mi the just right ql theso trend
holders, and seek to destroy their property and
rob them or it after they bad thus risked it for
the preservation f the Union, ought, in tba
language of onr Union pltform,"to be consign

This hoe and ery against theso non taxable
bonds, an unmanly, dishonorable, demagog,
io appeal, not founded in jostico or fair dealing,
bat based noon the supposed prejudice between
Ihe rich and tlie poor. When Dvniooraoy re

ing them in th lao. they admit at nnoe thai
tin y cannot maintain llieir cause Hy reason.
To satisfy any one that this Democratic doc
trine or taxing these bonds, leads directly tu
repudiation, we have ouly to consider tbi
single proposition, lo wit. that ir Ibe State
have the right to tax U. 8. bonds at all. they
may tax litem to death. If they have the
right lo tax them one per cent, they have the
right to tax them one hnndred per cent, and
thus U. S. Bonds wonld be worthless, and th
government would have no credit among lha
ci linens of any State or States desiring to de
stroy tho credit or the Uuion, for example lb
States lately in Secession and con Id not bor
row a single dollar nf lha oitixens of that Mate,
to belp Iu time nr mnrtal peril front either
roreign nr domestic roes. But, replies Joe.
Smith and Col. Kelly, (as we have heard them
reply) "the rate or taxation is uniform in Iho
State," and therefore U. 8. creditors could not
be taxed more than other ciliieus. and Is im
probable than unreasonable tale would he
levied in order tn damage tbe boud. Tn ihal
we reply, that lha manner or assessing tax
depend etiiirely en tba Constitution or tba
Slate; that while tt is uniform and levied on
all property according to it value In Oregon,
it i not so in California, iu Virginia, In Ten
neesee, and several other Slate that wu r.
member; because In tbeea Male. Ihere it not
only an ad valorem tax, but ther U alto spa

thai any sute desiring lo make war oa tb U,
S. government, by undermining it credit,
would alter It conttilution lo suit it polilia.
Aoy man or party that would repudiate th
