On Monday this people will beealled upon to select, at the ballot-box, whom they will have to perve them as legisla tors, in a judiciary capacity, and in the various county ofilces. We ask the j votes of this people for the ticket whicl leads this column because we- conscien tiously believe it to be composed of the iest men in the county, mentally and morally far superior to the ticket offered by our opponents for their suffrages. In our ticket the people of the county have men of culture, of ability, of honesty; sober, truthful, moral men, who will grace t&e&eveial positions for which they have been selected by the choice of an honest convention. There was no wire pulling, trading, ginning, or tricks of any kind employed, either by the can . did ales themselves or their friends, be fore or at the time of the County Ccn ' yention that placed them in nomina tion, to secure the places they occupy on the ticket. They were, in almost every instance, the unanimous choice of the delegates to that Convention be caure, and solely because, of their emi nent fitness each for the place assigned him. A large number of the candi dates are tillers of the soil. They rep resent the first and greatest element of society in this or airy other country; and being in- sympathy with the great majority of the voters in the county, can better understand their wants and desires than any others. . With sach a ticket, composed of men who stand as high socially, mcrally and intellectually as the best in the land, we confidently ask and expect the suffrages of every honest freeman in the county. Our ticket elected we promise you immediate reform and economy iu our county administration. We promise you that the terrible leaks which have annually absorbed such immense sums from our county treasury, shall be per manently stopped. We promise you every department of the county govern ment shall be managed in a straightfor ward, honest and economical manner. We can safely promise these things for we know the men on our ticket, for whom we speak. If honesty, capability snd integrity is what this people want in the management of their affairs, we offer it to them in the Linn County Re. publican ticket. "Will yoa accept it ? We hope that, for once, every honest citizen in Linn county will lay every prejadice aside, and vote for those whose past lives gives assurance that their promises of retrenchment and re form will be carried out to the letter. BEATEJf OS THE STVSTP TO BE CBCSJU. ED AT THE polls. The Democratic nominees for office in Linn county, to use a Western phrase, have been so thoroughly waxed at every point at which they have got off" their little pieces during the can vass,that they had become ditscouraged,' demoralized, and reckless, before getting to Lebanon. On Vfednesday, at Lebanon, they met a crushing 'defeat another Waterloo that eo disheartened and discouraged them, that they . all " came home, and holed up. Fortunately for them, Gov. Grover had announced to speak &t Seioon Thursday (the day advertised for the county canvassers), and some, if not all, of tho-Democratic candidates picked up courage and went back- to c:.o.- However as we understand that Grover h specially distasteful to the Dctnocracy of Scio, bis speech on yester 'ay, it is altoet! probable,' did more injury t." tbs ticket thabgood. . In their H-pcrrJs strait,- these, candidates -were i; a ih.a old ros-ld who frayed br "any body, Lcr-13 so it i ss$n. -j-", - John II. Halley is the uansa of Judge rL;ii' fcjiscr ilksouri law partner. . . vi. speaks . 9CT " ts nsErvm. I am perfectly willing that Judge Johns may receive the full benefit of all that is due him, and vastly beyond, as I am no sympathiser with personal abuse and maltreatment jtist for the sake of scandal. Mr. - Jlelni seems to be quick in asserting that the article headed, "More of Judge Johns' Record," is a base falsehood,' and for no other, reason than he is dead bent on giving some one the lie.- I .despise such a nature in any one, and would scorn to have any farther debate, were"it not that he has attempted to make a thing look "plausi ble, just and proper, where. plausibility is deception, where justice is fraud, and where propriety is filth in the mi uds of the eusible. "Mr. Helm admits that J ohns has not paid the 50 charges for professional services by the Hon. X; II. Cranor,-'decd.,' aud virtually admits -that the -Jtldge has no offsets to the same. His language is that Jdga Johns said that he had counter claims equal to the account of ; the estate against him (Johns). If ! Johns has any such claims it is high time that he was presenting them, with the proper vouchers, to the administrator, and having them placed on fi'.e with the balance of the papers. No such offsets are in existence, or Judge Johns, with his contracted ideas of economy, would have had them vouched for in some style or other by this time, as it is now about three years and a half since, the death of Mr. Cranor. It is palpable that Johns has no Euch offsets, or the administrator is most terribly delinquent in his duty iu settling said estate. The truth is Johns never has paid tlie $50, and does not intend to pay it. - To the editor of the Democrat : Chirp and flop your tiny wings Jtgain, and if you want io know who " Vim " is, you will always find him at his post where there is truth to vidicate and corruption to ventil'ate. So be careful how you spar. VIM. IAT. CS HAVE HOMST MEN IX OFFICE In another column will be seen the copy of a contract whereby W. M. Ramsey purchased the office of County Judge of Yamhill county for $200, of D. Smith. It will be remembered that there was a contest for the office of County Judge of Yamhill county be fore Judge R. P. Boise D. Smith re ceived the certificate of election. Ram sey contested his election, and the case was tried before his Honor, Judge Boise, who was then Judge of the 3d Judicial District. The case in the Cir cuit Court went in favor of Smith, the Court decidjng that Smith had seven teen majority. Ramsey appealed to the Supreme Court, after making the agreement referred to, wherein the par ties stipulate how the Supreme Court should decide; aud it appears the Su preme Court decided the case according to the stipulation. Does our Supreme Couit uphold and enforce such contracts for the sale of office, and lend its sanc tion and approval to such disgraceful transactions ? It is to be hoped that there is some explanation of this con tract that will free the Supreme Conrt of Oregon from being a party to enforce such a disreputable arrangement. Dem ocrats, look at the record of your Su preme Court, and say hereafter if you can, that politics never enters into judi cial decisions. Read the record of your candidate for District Attorney, and then go to the polls and vote for him. if you think thereby you will be fulfilling the duties of citizens and voters of Ore gon. Can it be said that a man who will make such an agreement is a good dtize',il& faithful officer or an honest man ? Every man who votes for Ram sey thereby endorses the purchase and sale of office. Democrats, investigate your candidate for District Attorney. The records of Yamhill county are be fore you. Let ns have honest men, not thieves, in office. m'ESTIOXS THAT KEED AXSWEBIXU. Hon. Geo. R. Helm, in his letter to the Democrat, says that S. A. Johns claimed that be bad counter claims equal to the $50 that he owed the es tate of N. II. Cranor. Mr. Helm does not claim that Mr. Johns had any such counter claims, and Mr. Helm does not believe that Johns had or has any such claim. If Johns has .any such claim, why don't he present it to the adminis trator and have it allowed ? There is no doubt that Johns claimed to Mr. Helm that he had a oounter claim... ne is just the kind of man to make, such a claim". : In addition to tha $50 Bpoken of by 'J Vim," - Johns- took"! and. receipted for $25 in tins . same case, thai properly belonged to Mr. Craaor under all the practice and usages of the Circuit Court. Johns' receint is a mat.. ter or record, Would it.not be-well to Pjr over wj jjir. vranor s ouuaren tnatl $25, with inferest ? Does-Johns claim toLave 'counter claim to that ? , Fair Pot, AS riWBATE Editor Register : Some things have been said concerning the fitness of S At Johns for the position of County Judge of Linn county, to which office he now aspires. All concede the office is one that, to fulfill its duties, requires a man of considerable legal pttaiumeuts. as well as a man of honesty and integ rity. The title to a large amount of real estate passes every year through or by virtue of proceedings had in the administration of estates, and these pro ceedings are under the immediate con trol and supervision of the Comity Judge. It has been said by the friends of S. A. Johns, that he was a good Probate Judge; that he k'ept a good record, and that all sales of laud in the administration of estates while he was County Judge of Linn county, from July, 1868, to July, 1872, were legally conducted, aud the title acquired by purchasers good. 1 1 have been informed that S. A. Johns asserted this himself, on the stump, within the past week It takes time to develop errors. TLe proceedings had before S. A. Johus,and the records kept by him in the matter of estates, are beginning to be investigated, and it is now ascertained that the Rec ords kept by him are the most defective ever kept in Linn county. I will in stance a few of the sales of real estate confirmed by Judge Johns, the records being in his own hand-writing and signed by him: In July, 1868, Henry DaviJson pur chased a farm in this county for $1,830, at administrator's sale, Andrew Greggs, administrator, and S. A. Johns confirm ed the sale. On account of irregulari ties the administrator's deed conveyed no title, and thejrents aud profits of the farm are now the subject of litigation in the Circuit Court of this county, In August, 1868, James Keeny pur chased, at administrator's sale, a farm belonging to the estate of Thomas Boggs, for $857 50 ; and at the same time D. M. Thompson aud P. W. Spink purchased several lots in Albany, at administrator's sale, paying full value therefor, believing they were getting good title thereto. But upon investi cation it was found that the title to all these lands so purchased was worthless, on account of irregularities in the pro ceeding in the Coantv Conrt. over which J udge Johns presided. All these sales were confirmed , by S. A. Johns in August, 1868. . . ; 1 he above is some of the proceedings that have been brought to my observa tion during the first two years that S. A.Johns acted as County Judge of Linn county. The records of Linn county will snow the correctness of the above statements. Linn county . has never had a Judge that -left so defective a record. The men who paid their money for lands, supposing they ' were getting a good title thereto, now realize tho importance of having a competent officer to transact county business, and the records show that S. A. Johns is either wholly incompetent, or that he is criminally careless and negligent of his sworn duty. Johns has been tried by the people and found wanting. Is it policy to try him again, aud entrust and incompetent man with the interests of the fatherless and widow ? It is a matter of 'vital importance to the peo ple, and they should see to it that they have a competent man to look after their interests a: mau with sufficient ability to know and perform correctly the duties of the office. S. Al Johns hav ing been either so ignorant or negligent in tho confirmation ot the sale of lands, have we any evidence or reason to be lieve that estates have been settled up correctly under his administration ? Doubtless a few years more, wlwn those who are now children begin to enquire into their rights, and investigate the settlement ot the estates of their fathers or mothers, they may find as grave errors in such settlements as in the above sales. With the evidence of John's in competency before them, can the people of Linn county cast their votes for him on Monday next ? i Justice. The desperate straits in which the Democratic "ring"- finds itself, brought about by disregard of pledges, utter selfishness, and the manner in which the fathers of the Democratic party of Linu county have been treated by the mem bers thereof, will lead them to resort to anything under the sun, no matter how low, mean or venial, to elect a portion of the ticket. They offered to give three votes for one vote for their candi date for Sheriff, in the early part of the canvass, and now they are offering to vote the entire Republican ticket save and except the Sheriff. The ring that now-control the Democratic party of Linn county would damn any party; ana unicss uiey are beaten at the and the control of tho rarty thus t.iUa nu uuiess uiev are Dentem at ttta . ;,vn" wkjh- corrupt; nanus, u.a democrat ic party will sooa bo numb&rea with the things that were a fculjc cf cl i rision.and ecora to its r,hik,j t". euts. - H.- A. - A CKJKIXAI. EXPOSED. How Baims7 .Pturobased the Ofllee of , ConnSy Xage r Tamltlll County. It appears from the following, copied from the records of mortgages for Yamhill comity, that Judge IlSmsey purchased tbo office of Cotinty JuJgs oi that eolinfy.- The Circuit Ckrtirt decided that Mr. Smith was elected by seventeerf majority after which Ramsey purchased the office for tico hun dred Jollars and paid the Costs. This is in itself a crime. Will the people support a criminal for the office of District Attorney? Ramsey cannot deny the record nor his own signature. A man who would pur chase an office Would be very likely to sell the interests of the people when occasion offered. As he said in his speech here, he la for the system or practice by which he can make the most money In the shortest time.

Cony of inortszasre recorded on na ISO. booUK, record of Yamhill county, Ore gon. . ' riox;i:D FOB usovian The Democratic nominees in Linn county, for Senators and Representa tives, are pledged to support Governor Grover for the United States Senate. The Republican nominees having driv en the Democrats to the wall in the presenut canvass, in discussing the po- itical issues ot the day, they sent post haste tor the Governor to come to their aid. The Governor promptly answered the call, but the batl !e has ' already gone against . him and his mercenary brigade. . The Governor instructed his brigade not to tell the people who they intend to support for the United States Senate, snd each and every one of them' laa followed out his instructions to the letter. They are ready to pledge them-1 selves secretly to Grover, but will make no pro'miires to the people. It was un derstood at the Democratic county con. vention here that none but Grover men should be nominated. Slart. V. Broyn manipulated the convention tor Grover, aud the whole ticket was, made up be fore the convention met. The load has become eo heavy that the candidates have cried out to, Grover for help, and he has como to tie rescue, throwing Giifrey and 1" into the breach in his efforts to redeem the lost cause. But ho is too late; the knell of doom is al ready sounding in his ears, and as Ije ooks wistfully into the futvre he can see in the distance a seat in the United States fcnati fading, fadiftg, fading, gradually but surely from his iew. If the people want Grover for Senator, why fchcu'.I tl.o Democratic candidates conceal ll.o :" t that they are pledged to eaj-jx.i't Li::.i'f An honest man would recort to r,3 t! ";,iicry.

Dot. ;IS TICKETS. ood Democratic as Tity.that bogus and so'uttoutr over the county by the Democratic ring, intended to defraud and deceive voters into casting their votes for J R. Ilerren. There may . be, and there doubtless is, other styles of bogus tickets than that referred to by our Brownsville corres--pondentj but as the "ring" is more di--fectly interested in the election of the Sheriff than any one else on the ticket in fact offer to give all the balance of the ticket for a vote for Mr. Ilerren ' we are inclined to side with our inform ant in the belief that the ring will de pend to a greater extent on this style of ticket than any other. The ticket spo ken ot is a Republican ticket, with the exception of the name of ous candidate for Sheriff, Mr. S. A. Dawson. In place of Mr. Dawson's name will appear the name of the Democratic candidate for Sheriff", Mr. J. R. Ilerren. This is a high-handed outrage on the voters of Linn connly, and the parties guilty of snch unblushing rascality should be spurned by an indignant people, and sent back to obscurity where they prop erly belong. SIIOW YOl'K COLOI, tiEKTLEMKV. It is generally understood that the Linn county Democratic legislative ticket is pledged to 'support Governor Grover for the United States Senate, yet every time they have been asked the qnestion as to w ho they would sup port if elected to the legislature, they have refused to answer. Thev dare not state their position intelligently on the Senatorial question,. They wear the Grover collar, yet dare not own it ! What a bra re set ot men they are, to be snre, to ask the independent voters of Linn conr.ty to vote them Feats in the Oregon Legislature, while wearing a collar they are ashamed to own ! Ah, what luster they, would shed on the councils of State, ai'd how highly hon ored would Lion county be n securing such representatives! A POOR STICK. Word comes from Sweet Home that Mr. J. Snmner, Democratic candidate for the Legislature, wilUbe universally scratched in his own precinct the stronghold of Democracy in Linn. This is rather rough on Svunner, and indi cates that there is something exceed ingly "rotten in Denmark" in his case to induce lied rockers to go back on him. From all the statements made lo ns, wo" are led to believe that he does not possess a single qualification fitting him for the the p'ace to which he as pires. However, as he will be scratch ed all over the county where he has ever resided, no danger of his election need be apprehended. Vale, Sumner. SOKE Z.IE3. The Cocktail Advertiser of May 30th says that "every physician in Linn county who votes for ... Blackburn for County Judge, will vote to make a cer tain disciple of iEscnlapius of this city the county physiciau for the next four years. This bargain has been made, and can be proven', We are authorized to say that the physicians ot this ciy pronounce the above charge a base faUehood, and demand that the editor of the afoiesaid sheet furnish his proof or acknowledge that ho has will fully lied. Come to the center, old man. . CAPS THEM A IX. For unmitigated, outrageous, uncall ed for, wholesale lying, the Daily Cocktail Advertiser ot this city is not now nor ever has been excelled or equal led in any country.. For crawling out of one lie into another, for roundabout, straight out, dovetailed, miscellaneous lying, it shames all its Democratic com petitors. The universal exclamation b, upon reading the sheet, "Ai.anias and Sapphira ! what a braze.i little liar !" A CHA.XJE FOn THE MORSE. The tongne-lahing Judge Johns gave tho chief ink-slinger of the Cocktail Advertiser recently, operates like a charm. Since that day we see no more statements that Democrats were going to bolt Judge Johns, but instead thereof the most fulsome be slobbering of the Judge, and assertions that he will now carry old Linn by 250 to 300 majority. The public can now see what effect a little wholesome cus sing had on a "red hot" general. ' Look well to your tickets. Fraud and deception ot every kind will be at tempted by the Democratic ring on the day of election. Eogus tickets will be circulated, calculated to deceive oven on the olosest scrutiny. Look to your tickets and see that there are no names but those ot Republicans on them. Look oat for all kinds of Democratic fraud and deception on election day ; and be careful, especially, to scan every ticket offered by members of the ring, or those who are suspected to be in pos session of ring money, . - THIS BROTHERS, - HAVE JtTSt RECEIVED AU'ew and Large Invoice OF AND JEWELHY, And will Sell it the Following Prices i Coin silver, 2 oz.
