An editorial in last weeVJ)euiocrat
informed its reader?, in cubftanec, Uiat
Democrats were "going back'? ontlieir
candidate tor County Judge, S. A.
Johns, Esq. We don't write tliis arti
cle to dispute tbe truthfulness of this
a-fertkn, but to express our exceeding
astonishment at reading bo truthful a
statement cuiauatit g from such a
source! A Democratic paper a "red
hot" Democratic paper announcing to
jU rvaJers that Democrats were refus
ing to rote for the Wrongest man on
.. their ticket ! ' Iufereniiai'y making tlie
statement that the Democratic ticket of
J. inn county is so weaky has po little
strength, tliat evon "red liot" Demo
crats could not stand it, and were
tlierctoro only awaiting election day to
bolt.it entirely. Candor compels us to
pay .that our cotemporary add, tliat he
hopes Democrats will think belter of
it, and conclude to vote the straight j
ticket, but tlien tlie mauncr ot raying !
this much. is f careless and indifferent,
that one is led to believe that there in
little licart in it. We are beginning to
be ashamed of our cotemporary. Why,
olJ boy, the cajivara lias hardly opened j
as yet, and it peaks very little for your
courage to give up, bag and baggage,
so extremely early. Clieer up,my Htt'e
bantam, aud even if you have neither
spurs nor comb, keep up a terrible cack
ling just 'as- though you- liad, and you
may Induce at leat . a few "red hot"
Democrats to vote a part of the ticket.
Come, taken dried apple, or even a
tSeiJhtz powder, anything light that you
can stand up under and that will cheer
j om ai d keep np your "red hot'' cour
age until 'lection day, and rush up edi
torials like this : "Democrats ot Old
Linn are a unit all differences (you'll
have to be consistent for onee,yeu know,
and acknowledge there have been dif
ferences) have been healed (all through
your "red hot," aggressive, Democratic
Iieet, of course), and now we have tm
dying confidence in an entire and over,
whelming victory at the polls in June!
Democrats, your General bids you clieer
up as often as you have tlie necessary
stamps!" Ot course, you needn't copy
the above verbatim, but you can ?fixn
it up, you know (an old thing with yon ,
ot course) and it'll pass as "original'' as
most of the Tieavy leaders in a Demo- j
cratie sheet run by water ! At all event, j
if you .must "soar on a part ot the j
Democtatta ticket, don't "go for" Judge
Johns,' as lie may not lot you oil so
eay the next whiz, as lie did the other
day. -.
. MSUHK THAT. ,"""::
. Uepublicans all over Linn county are
cheerfully working, bclieviug that vic
tory will certainly perch on our banner.
Tlie heretofore - strongholds' of Democ
racy are wavering ; part of tlie Dema. ;
cratie ticket is very objectionable to tbe
party, and this weakens tlie, whole
ticket. That tlie - Democratic
ticket will be scratched badly, no
honest, well informed Democrat will
deny; and when the scratching bumiess
once commences, every "scratch" in
duces another. This scratching and
bolting the ticket, and general dissatis.
faction and chagrin i among Democrats
dt the eharaeter of the ticket put np. for
them to vote, adds strength to ti.e Re
publican twktet, backed as it is by a

THE. RAPED INCREASE or THE KE

t'OlJ(TT.
While we have been confident - for
some time pact, that the majority of the
voters of Linn county were ltepnbli
cans, we had no idea how tlie leading
Dcmn;rats of the county were coining
into, and gladly embracing, the great
party of reform and retrenchment, and
therefore wlieu a petition headed, "we
the undersigned llepublicans," etc., was
handed to ns, on Monday last, and wo
faw tlie names of proiniiunt, loading
Democrats of former times apjwnded
tWreto, we were agreeably surprised.
And so it is, men who have fought all
tlieir lives under the banner of Democ
racy, have at last,' in tlieir later year?,
seen the error ot their ways, and are
throwini; off their allegiance to it not
tew and fecb-e in numbers, but by
scores, ami thofe who once were the
flower of the flock the chief men ot the
larty. "Of course, we are glad to see
our neighbors and friends really awake
to their duty, and feel like welcoming
them in the language ot the poet : :
"A lonjr a the lamp holds out to burn,
-The vilest sinner may return .' " . :
Could anything be more cheerful
than this ? With an undoubted good
ticket, a platform that meets universal
approval, and old-time, died-in-tho-wool
Derotcrats joining the great Republi
can party by scores, no dissensions or
strife in our own party, what is there to
hinder the election ot the entire Repub
lican ticket in Lir.n county. Every day
adds but to our i-treiigth and the cer
tainty of a grand RejHiblican victory.
Let the ides of J uno sjieak for us.
O. H. S. ULACKBCILV,
Republican candidate for ' County
Judge, will be elected to succeed Judge
K. X. Tandy, because he possesses quali
fications xetliarly fitting him for 'the
office. lie is a gentleman ot culture
and extended general information, while
as a lawyer lie has no sujierior iu the
count'. Lack of the necessary judicial
knowledge in the occupants ot tlie office
of County Judge iu former years in
Linn county, has caused a great deal of
unnecessary cost and trouble to the tax
payers. It is not necessary tor us to re
count the several mistakcs,made through
tlie carelessness and ignorance of the
County Judge, especially in probate
matters, in years gone by in Linn coun
ty; some of our readers baye been made,
to iy roui-d'y for this want of knowl
edge in the principal officer of the coun
ty, and we only call attention to the
fact to impress np-.iu the minds of the
taxpayers the great importance of the
office, and that, as tlie office under con
sideration is the most important one iu
either county or State government iu
tact more important tliati that of Gov.
ernor ot tlie StnV, requiring more real
ability to fill it well the greatest care
should be made in selecting tlie man to
fill the office. The County Judge should
be a man of liberal education, possess
ing a good legal mind, of sound judg
ment and hard practical common sense,
and ' whote honesty and integrity is
above suspicion. A violent partizan, in
onr judgment, is unfit for the office. -
In Judge Ulackburn we present a can.
didate who possesses every requisite to
fill the office of County Judge of Linn
county, with honor to himself and sat
isfaction to our people. ; A , man of
strong convictions, but not s violent
partizan ; of clear judgment ; a thor
ough and accomplished ; lawyer, who
possesses the entire confidence ot tlie.
community in which he lives ; - upright
and conscientious in tlie performance i of
every duty devolving upon him as a ,
citizen, lie deserves, and will receive,
the hearty support of every ci.tizei of '
Linn comity who goes beyond - party
consideration, and scans the qualified.

hand is placed such vast nitero-t. '-; -
It is believed that shoull5 tlie next
Legislature, by any possibility, be Dem

sterling farmer, young, active, with
splendid business qualifications that fit
him specially fbr the office, lie took
no special painsto obtain ' the uomina-"

publicans of the entire county tor the
position, receiving the nomination by
acclamation. He reprei-ents. the most

The Times Washington-special says
a petition Fias'bs'beeh," received here
from California asking Congress to ap
point a joint committee, to sit iu San
Francisco during the recess, to inquire
into the affairs . of the Central Pacific
Railroad- Company, tho affairs of the
firm of Chav " Crocker & Co., and ot
the Contract and Finance , Company.
Ti.e petition also askr. that legislation
be jHJstponed until the commission have
reported the facts and tlie petitioners
promise to make good the serious alie
nations contained in the petition.- Pe
titioners allege that various gifts and
subsidies to the Ceutral Pacific have
exceeded in value S125,OOd,OO0,Tjesides
bonds issued and secured by mortgages
on the road to the amount "of $27,000,
000 more. They say the construction is
ot the flimsiest character, and that the
road as constructed could be built 'for
$35,000,000. The petition charges that
the managers of the company, whom it
names as Iceland Stanford, Mark Hop
kins, C P. Huntington and" Chas.
Crocker, formed the firm known as
Chas. Crocker & Co., of wliich all tlie
managers were members and that they
let to this company : the .contract for
bui'ding-t1e road at the most extrava
gant prices, dividing tlie profits among
themselves. Frauds are alleged iu con
nexion with the finance committee of
which it is stated tlie managers are mem
bers. - One of the raot serious charges
is that the outlay of money to keep the
road in repairs is so small that the lies
and trestles and iron rails are h) a bad
condition and unsafe fbr the transporta
tion of passengers. The petitioners ask
an investigation on tlie ground that
they are stockholders in the road and
are unable to obtain any sitare of the
profits, and cannot secure tlieir sights
through the courts," lieca use the imi'
meiuse resources ot the managers enable
them to obtain the most skillful counsel
and invoke the law's delay. The peti
tion makes out a case against the Cen
tral Pacific which; if sustained would
lio even woie than the Credit Mouilier
frauds iu the construction of the Union
Pacific - , i
Among the signers of a petition pre
sented by Sargent are John Robinson,
Anthony England ami Anthony Costs,
who state they are stockholders' of the
Ceutral Pacific Railroad Cotupany- auI
that they are refused payment- of their
proportion of the earning and profits.
, Robinson, Anthony and Kge, in their
petition presented to tlie Senate to-day,
state that their interests are identical
with those of the German government
to compel the managers to retire ?27,
00,000 ot tlie bonds illegally issued in
excess ot tlie actual cost of the mad,
and that they, the petitioners, - being
men of small means,cannot enforce their
right in courts without unsnpportable
expense and delay, etc.;" tlierefbre, iu
their extreme need, they came to Con
