In making this call for a Republican
State Convention, the State Central Com
mittee realize the fact that too much impor
tance cannot be attached to preliminary
operations. This being a "government of
the people, by tho people, for tlie people,"
the agents or officers of the government
should be in accord with the people. Ac
cording to the general accepted plan of
selecting candidates, the first steps are ta
ken in our primary, county ami State con
ventions. These form the ground work of
political organization upon which the wliole
superstructure must stand or fall. If hon
est men deire honest officials, is it asking
-too much that tley lay aside for a day all
-other business affaire aud devote the time
necessary to select proper persons to attend
county-and State conventions?
In view of these considerations and of the
important interests at stake we earnestly
-appeal to all legal voters who are in sym
pathy ".vith the principle ot tlie Republican
party, regardless of personal likes and dis
likes to rally at the primaries, and see to it
that none but true men are entrusted with
the business of preparing for the coming
.political campaign : Select men who are
not only true themselves in the broadest
sense oi mat terra out men ot atscernmenr
men who can and will choose wisely for the.
.good of the people in defiance of "rings"
nd "clique?."
It is unneecessary at this time to reiterate
"iu this call the principles ot the Republican
party: its glorious record is still fresh in
the memory ot an enlightened public ; it
is sound upon all the great principles affect
ing our national existence ; it is the party
of progress and development ; it exposes
corruption wherever found and inflicts pun
ishment upon conspirators, tearful and sud
den, without respect of person or position ;
it favors the universal enlightenment of tb.3
people without trammel of creed or ism ;
and its banner 13 found in the van leading
on the hosts of reformers in all that tend
to higher civilization and enlarged freedom.

SOMEHOW OR OTULEH.
Life has a burden for every one's shoulder
None may escape from its trouble and
care;
Miss it in youth, and 'twill when we're
older,
And fit us as dose as the garments we
wear.
Sorrow comes into our lives uninvited.
Robbing our heart of its treasure of
song;
Lovers grow cold, and onr friendships are
slighted,
Yet somehow or other w worry along.
K very-day toil is an every-day blessing.
Though poverty's cottage and crnst we
may share;
Weak is the back on which burdens are
pressing.
But stout Is the heart that is strengthened
by prayer.
Somehow or other the pathway grows
brighter
J ust when we mourn there was none to
befriend;
Hope iu tlie heart mokes the burden seem
lighter.
And somehow or otlier we get to tlie end.
The DUTerenee.
Tlie nation Las been plundered to the
extent of millions of dollar by dishon
est Democratic officials, many of these
officials now holding high place in the
estimation of their party friend. Cora
Tweed, with his $20,000,000 stolen
from the tax-payers of New York, was
an apt scholar of modern Democracy.
Intrusted to the custody of a Demo
cratic sheriff, who had enjoyed in other
days the princely hospitality of this
persecuted official, the Hot s disappear
ed betweeu dark ami daylight months
ago, and nothing has been heard from
him since. It is believed by many that
he i still in New York city, tho guest
of his Democratic admirers. Had he
been a Republican official lie would
have been breaking stone at Sing-Sing,
and the Democratic press would have
been holding him up as a fair sample of
Republican corruption. But as he was
a Democratic leader his shortcomings
are overlooked, and his crime scarcely
mentioned by the Democratic press.
Even the sheriff holds his position, and
Governor Tilden nods consent. The
great difference betweeu Democracy
and Republicanism is just this: the for
mer shields its official rascals, the latter
punishes tlicm whenever found. There
is not an instance on record where the
Republican party shielded an official
known to be dishonest.
Impeachments.
There have been only six impcach
metit trials before the United States
ge;;ate, and but two persons were con
victed. The first case was that of
Senator Blount, charged with treason
in 1798, but there was no trial, the
jurisdiction of the Senate being denied
on the ground that a Senator was not I
an officer of the Uuited States. Judge
Pickering of New Hampshire was found
guilty of drunkenness iu 1803, and re
moved. Judge Humphreys of Ten
nessee was impeached for treason early
in the war, and convicted. The most
celebrated trial, down to President
Johnson's, was that of Judge Saraue'
Chase of Maryland, who was impeached
in 1804 for political partisanship in the
trials of Fries and Calleuder for libel,
five years before.
Chase was a Feder
alist, a ixl these men were virulent Demo
time when tlie partisanship
crats at a
ot the press was vastly more bitter than
it is now. The trial was tlie rrreat
event of the day, but resulted in atspit-
ri C.ha wan one ot the sirm nt
the Declaration of Independence and a
great, spirit, naviog once ordered a
sheriff to summon a posse and take
some rioters to jail, he was timidly
answered that nobody would respond.
"Summon me, then, and I'll take 'em,"
thundered the Judge.' Aaron Burr's
trial, one of the few famous American
State trials, was after the expiration of
his term of Vice President, and before
a jury on an indictment for. high trea-1
son, of which he was acquitted. f

TUU AJU THAT.
A special Washington telegram dated
April 7th says
this :
The sergeaut-at-arms of the Senate
proceeded this evening to the hou -e of
Belknap to serve on him the process
issued by order of the Senate as a court
of impeachment. Belknap was up
stairs when the sergeant was aunounced;
but he did not keep that functionary
waiting long. Ife came into the draw
ing room with a brink step, and with a
entile on his face aud extended his band
said : "IIow do you do, Mr. French r
I suppose I know the object of your
warrant. Well, I am very glad to see
vou. Take a scat." French, before
accepting this offer ot hoVpitality, reach
ed down in his overcoat pocket and
produced the formidable looking docu
ment with which ho was entrusted.
He then read the document, Belknap
standing by, listening attentively.
When the reading was concluded, Bel
kap said, "I will respond at the time
designated." Tlie ex-secretary was dis.
posed to be very communicative, and
exhibited a very striking evidence of a
rapid recuperation from the depression
attending the first shocK of his down
fall. Be conversed freely on the subject
ot the accusations against him, and
whatever bis inner thoughts may have
been, outwardly he evinced a determi
nation - to brave the matter through if
possible. lie remarked that now that
he was on the defensive he was the
target ot all manner ot attacks ; but
bad no fears of his ultimate vindication.
So far only one side of the matter had
been given, but soon the other side
would be heard. He iutimated the
probability of his appearance in person
before the Senate ; but this will not be
determined definitely until after a full
conference with hjs counsel.
In reference to Senator Thurman,
the great Democratic light, the same
telegfam says,
that :
The civil service committee, investi
gating tlie charges against Thurman,
today investigated B. F. Cowart. He
fee-tides that Isadora Blumenthal, col-'
lector of tlie port f Cedar Keys,
Florida, told him he paid Thurman
$500 "blood money" for hi appoint
ment as collector. Kending and Pond
testified to being present when the
above conversation took place between
Cowart and Blumenthal, and confirmed
the statement of Cowart. Geo. E.
Fowler testified that Thurman said, a
few days after his election, that it had
cost over 56,000 clean cash to get
elected, and he was going to have some
of this money back before he started
tor ashmgton. Thurman said an old
fellow, meaning Simpson at Montinello,
wants a cadetship for his son, and the
old chap has got to pay me for it.
Of course our Democratic cotempora-
ries all over Oregon will hasten to un
cork thiir vials of wrath against Demo
cratic Senator Thurmau for his rascali
ties, just as tliey hare done toward Gen.
Belknap. It certainly makes no differ
ence to your virtuous Democratic ink-
slinger whether the criminal is a
Republican or Democrat, each alike
deserves coiKiemnauon ana eacn win
receive it ! ! Won't tliese redhot Demo-
cratic journals of Oregon
"go
tor7:
Thurman! and won't he be kicked
right out of the party ! - Democrats will
not tolerate rascals or rascality at least
iu the Republican party, and of coarse
they will tolerate it less iu their owu
ranks ! We shall see.
