Unfaltering devotion to tbe Union, first, last, and forever ; and unwavering fidelity to the Constitution and its amendments, and to the laws of our National Legislature. 2d. We wholly approve the principals and pol icy of the administration of President Grant, as carrying into practical application the principles for which we have successfully striven. And we particularly commend those points in bis Inaugu ral Address, wherein he declares 4 let it be un derstood that no repudiator of one farthing of onr pablic debt will be trusted in public places, and it will go far towards strengthening a credit which ought to be the best in tbe world," and " I would protect the law abiding citizen, whether of native or foreign birth, wherever his rights are preju diced or the flag of our country floats ;" and " I will have no policy to enforce against the will of the people." ' 3d. We have confidence that the Administra tion will wisely and firmly protect the interests and sustain the d ignity of the Nation in respect to other nations, and especially with regard to our just claims against Great Britain. 4th. We denounce all forms of repudiation as a national crime, and the national honor requires tbe payment of the public indebtedness in the uttermost good faith to all creditors at home or abroad, not only according to the letter, but tbe spirit of the laws under which it was contracted. And for this purpose, we favor a strict economy in the Administration of the National Govern ment, and the application to such payment of all surplus revenue, from whatever source derived ; and that taxation should be equalised and reduced as rapidly as the national faith will permit. 5th. We make no distinction between citizens, whether of foreign or native birth; and that we sympathize now and ever with men of all nation alities striving for self government. 6th. That we are opposed to any change iu our naturalization laws which shall admit to citizen ship any foreigners not now entitled thereto un der said laws. 7th. We favor a judicious system of railroad and river improvements In Oregon, in order to de velop Our resources aud invite settlement of our unoccupied territory -and-for this purpose insist that Congress should make us liberal grants of aid.-,- ..- - ..V'.' , i v " 8th. We are in favor of a tariff for revenue, with such discriminations in favor of eur domes tic manufactures as will not diminish its efficiency for the purposes of revenue. 9th. We favor universal amnesty to the people of those States lately in rebellion, which have been restored to full relations in tho Union. 10th. We are in favor of fostering the cause of education, and are opposed to any diversion of the common school funds of this State to ' any other purpose than the support of common schools. 11th. We recognize in the Union Republican party tbe measures and men who saved tbe Gov ernment from destruction, and that its continu ance in power is the only sure safeguard to na tional peace and prosperty. And with this plat form we appeal to the voters of Oregon for their suffrages and support. ' I NEW TO-DAY. "A Stitch in Time Saves Nine!" UNION Fire and Marine Insurance Company!

By the Charter of tbe Company, certificates of obligations will be issued, agreeing to purchase its policies at their value which, wben accompa nied by the policy duly, assigned or transferred, are negotiable, and may be used as collateral se curity, in making loans from the Company or from other parties. The Hon. Jno. E. Sanford, Insurance Commis sioner of Massachusetts, in his Report for 1868, speaking of Dividends in Life Insurance Compa nies, says , ' The sooner such guarantees cease to be made, and such expectations created, the sooner Life Insurance will come to rest on iu true motive, and men insure their lives for security, and not for dividends. The best and the most popular companies will then be those that prom ise only equity, and render all that they promise, and furnish the best security, with the most up right and judicious management." " By the Stock plan the full eash effect of the premium is. immediately secured to the insured, the Company taking all tbe risk. By tbe Mu tual plan, the full value in insurance of the pre mium paid, is not secured to the policy-holder, who takes a portion of the risk himself." Policies Issued In OS-old or Currency, Wr.1. E.

Albany, September 19, I868-2T "GAY" NEWS. Farmers Can Ride and Plow, - BT SCCURISO OKB OW THB GAY" PLOWS, Manufactured and sold for the very lew price ot $65 and tT. THE simplicity and practicability of this new Plow commends it favorably to the special notice of every farmer. It possesses a decided superiority over all other plows now in use. The wheels are four feet in diameter, and run on the nnplowed land. Its entire construction is in no way complicated. Tbe plow is managed in every manner with ease, and requires only two levers to be used in making any alteration. Tbe supe riority of the "Gay" Plow will be clearly shown by the following certificate : We, the undersigned, citizens of Linn county, Oregon, having purchased and used npon our farms tbe "Gay" Plow, hereby certify that th same has given us entiresatisfaction. Its facility for adjneting to suit tbe depth of furrow without movi"g from tbe seat, ia simple and easy. We like the plow for its draught, because tbe same is brought to bear directly upon the plow-beam in stead of the carriage ; also, because ft is strong; and durable, all except the wood-work being con structed of wrought iron no ce- tings are nsed. . Tbe wheels running upon the solid land is an ad vantage over other gang-plows, is strikinr off" land and in plowing, not having to make the nec essary changes in the machinery, and the seat is always level, not thr wing tbe driver forward or sideways as in other plows. Better work and more of it can be accomplished by the use of thia Plow than by band. We take pleasure in recommending the "Gat" Plow to our brother farmers, as one having no. superior in Oregon. J.
