ALBANY, OREGON, FEB.
1877.
THE COMMISSION AT WORK.
'-"'111 trzriUtiJ'' .
The counting ot tlie votes for, Presi
dent sud Vice President commenced
laet week. The States were taken al
phabetically, commencing with " Ala
Wma, and the voteot eacb announced
until Florida was reached, when- objec
tioca were made to counting the elec
toral vote ot tbai State for- Hayes and
Wlieeler,! when the Electoral Commis--i
mob retired to take the objections under
tdtisement. -So far as counted the vote
was announced as - follows : Alabama,
10 votes for Tilden and Hendricks Ar-
anas, 6 for Ttlden and 1 lend ricks; Col
orado and California, 9 votes for Hayes
ud Wheeler ; Delaware, 3 votes for
Tilden and Hendricks giving . the lat
ier sentlemeri 19 votes iu the electoral
eollejje, while iYatWs and Wheeler have
trat9. It is predicted that the commit
em will decide the Florida matter to
day, and Isepublicans are confident that
the decision will be in favor of the ma
jority of the .voters, of that State, which
will be in favor ot the Republican can
didates. Should this ' predict ion prove
true, then the only fight the Democracy
will make, we .think,, will .be oveia the
thirteenth State, Louisiana: bnt as the
facta are all in favor ot the Republicans
the fight wiITbe a short oue, and Hayes
and Wheeler will be awarded the elec
toral vote ot the State, which elects
.them to the positions for which they
! -were nominated.
FIELD IN DISGRACE.
The uew Democratic Congressman
Field, who has made himself so conspic
uous since lie became a member of that
body, in being ready to do any dirty
work required by Tilden, has at last
gone so far in his extremo dirtiues and
violation of all rules ot honor and de
cency, as to call forth the reprimands of
-even bis associate Democrat?. He is a
member of the House committee on
privileges, and he lias used his position
iu garbling the testimony taken before
the committee and getting the same
published, without the consent of any
-ot the committee, before tlie committee
"had finished its work or had authorized
any report whatever. It is pronounced
the dirtiest trick ever before performed
by any Congressman. Knott aud
Sarks united with Lawrence in de
inouncins; the' printing of the testimony
as described, disclaiming all knowledge
of bow or by whom done. Being thus
deserted by bis party, friend, Field be
came very much embarrassed, confessed
he was guilty of the dirty trick, said he
was sorry, and asked the forgiveness of
the members of the committee. And
he was not only forgiven, but Field was
allowed the privilege of having the evi
dence of the contemptible trick stricken
from the record 1" Had a Republican
'been guilty of tuch a disgraceful trans
action, he would have been kicked out
t Congress and justly, too ! But yon
are not to expect a very great amount
f decency fronv a Tildcn member of
-Congress! .
THE POSTAL TELEGRAPH.
A petition, ia being circulated in all
j srU of the country, asking the General
Government to purchase the telegraph
-lines in the United States, and institute
a postal telegraph system by which
messages could be transmitted at a very
low rate. There are many advantages
which would accrue to the people
through such a purchase. Telegraph
ing would, then be a part ot the postal
system ot tho country, and messages
would he sent instead ot letters, by bus
iness men, because the price would be
reduced to a reasonable compensation
for such service,. aud because a message
would not only be much quicker but
more certain of reaching its destination,
A lt the possibilities and advantages ot
telegraphy eannot be reached under its
present status, as it is now simply au
overgrown monopoly, putting tho ad
vantage it 'bffara at such cxhorbitant
rates that tXM masses of the people can.
sot avail themselves of them. As we
sea it at present, we are in favor, decid.
Sly, of the) ' Government purchasing
and taainUininjr the telegraph lines.

INTIMIDATION IN MISSISSIPPI.
Since tho Senate comnaittee com-
menced investieratinsr the manner in
which the Presidential election was con
ducted iu Mississippi, the people begin
to see more clearly the reason why the
"Tilden reformers," ever since that elec
tion, have lied so wilfully and menda
ciously, threatened and put on such
war-like airs, and kept up so great a
howl generally, charging frauds, etc., in
regard to the electoral count in Florida,
South Carolina and Louisiana. There
was a cause, we say, for all this great
expenditure of money and breath on the
part of Tilden and his servants, which
was not so apparent to the masses at
the first blush, which the. testimony ta
ken before the Senate committee has de
veloped. The' testimony shows a sys
tem ot rascality- in Mississippi on the
part of tho Tilden Reformers"- that
outdoes the intimidation, bulldozing,
ballot-stuffing and murders ot the Til-
denites in any of the other States, and
the Democratic howls ot frauds in Lou
isiana and Florida and South Carolina
were raised and continued in the hope
of drawing from 'public attention, and
consequent investigation, tho "Re
form mode of carrying Presidential
elections in Mississippi.' The electoral
vote of Mississippi (eight electors) was
given to S. J. Tilden. We asserted then
that the vote ot the State, on a fair
count, without intimidation and fraud
oil .the part of Democrats would bo
given to Gov. Hayes, aud the evidence
before the committee is overwhelming
that this assertion was true ; and despite
intimidation, bulldozing and murder,
the State undoubtedly gavo a majority
for Hayes, and, as the evidence abund
antly proves, this majority was filched
from him and the Republican, .party by
a systematic robbing the ballot boxes !
The testimony shows that Democratic
judges were furnished duplicate keys to
the ballot-boxes, so that they might
take out Republican ballots and in their
stead place Democratic ballots ! The
testimony ot Congressman Lynch con
cerning the way in which the election in
Mississippi was carried by the Demo
crats, is abundantly corroborated by the
sworn evidence of a Democratic officer,
who was forced, however reluctantly, to
give his evidence. We call special at
tention to it as more work ot the "Re
former." Here is the evidence :
Washingtox, Feb. 3. Investiga
tion into tho conduct of the late elec
tion iu Mississippi was continued to-day
before tho Senate committee on privi
leges and elections. J. T. Lecoster pres.
ident of the 1 lines county board of reg
isters, who refused to testify before the
committee yesterday, testified there was
a conference of tho leading Democrats
Of Hines county a short time before the
election, at which it was proposed to
furnish one of the Democratic judges
of election at thq polling places with a
duplicate key to the ballot-boxes. Wit
ness furnished about 15 of these dupli
cate keys to different men, all ot whom
were while men, and he thinks Demo
crats. He slipped a small parcel into
the vest pocket of one ot tho judges, re
marking as he did so : " Here is some
thing which may be of use to yon."
Did not tell them what use was to be
made of them, but supposed tlicy were
all smart enough to find ont how and
tor what to use them. In answer to a
question from Senator Teller, witness
said : "I suppose my idea was that if
there wero too many Republican votes
in a ballot-box the key was to open the
nx that the Republican votes might be
taken out arf Democratic votes substi
tuted iu their stead.''
Witness admitted the Republican
judges ot election in Hinds county wero
generally ignorant negroes, and it was
easy to get them intoxicated. In the
election lie admitted duplicate keys to
the ballot-boxes were furnished to one
of the Democratic judges in every poll
ing precinct in the county.
THE IDAHO MARRIAGE LAW.
The new law governing the marriage
contract in Idaho Territory is very lib
eral indeed. It allows the marriages ot
men at eighteen and women at sixteen,
and of a still more tender age it parents
concent. Anybody authorised to ad
minister an oath can solemnize the mar
riage ceremony, and for this purpose, or
for taking evidence concerning a pro
posed marriage, ministers,, are empow
ered to administer oaths. If the cere
mony is performed by any party claim
ing to have authority, and it is after
wards shown that the party had no such
authority, the fraud shall not prevail,
but the marriage stand good. The law
further enacts that "marriaigesmust be
solemnized, Authenticated and recorded,
but failure so to do shall not invalidate
any lawful marriage." This law makes
marriage in Idaho "just as easy the
Gretna Green of ardent lovers.
THE OUTRAGES
In .Mississippi, committed by the "Re
formers," as shown up by the Senate
committee, equal in atrocity and fiend
i ibness the operations ot their Demo
cratic brethren in Florida and' Louisi
ana, There ; isn't a lingering doubt
that Mississippi, without intimidation
and Democratic bulldozing, is largely
Republicau.
IT WORRIES THEM.
Tlie "Tilden Reformers," those Dem
ocrats, you know, who hare been charg
ing corruption and fraud 'npon the Re
publican party, and howling with every
breath for R-e-f-o-r-m (which simply,
means, turn Republicans out of office,
aud put Democrats in, and we'll show
you how to steal), are very anxious to
"explain what was done with the vast
sums of money sent to Oregon to enable
the Tilden "Reformers" to getaway
with one elector. Bit the more Demo
cratic journals explain the worse the
matter looks. Tlie N. Y. World ex
plains the use of $6,30Q but what be
came of the balance of the money ? In
addition to the $8,000 note, endorsed by
R. R. Thompson and others, $15,000
was sent to Oregon, all to get Cronin a
certificate. The cashier of Koountz Ss
Bro's. bank testified that $8,000 was
sent by draft, and Bellinger testified
that he got "$7,300 in a package,"
from the express office, which corrobo
rates Mr. Bush's statement. Now won't
some of these honest "Reformers" tell
us what become of the balance of the
mouey unaccounted for the $9,000 ?
NEWS FROM OCIIOCO.
A private letter just received from
Ochoco states that times were never
harder nor monev scarcer. The winter
has been a pleasant one, little snow and
no very cold weather. Stock look well
and there is plenty of good beef cattle.
The Granger store has been sold to
James Luckey. A party have gone in
to the "silver soap" mines, taking a
huge kettle probably going into the
soap business. Prineville reported as
prosperous, with two saloons, three
stores and blacksmith shops, one planer,
one grist mill, one boot and - shoe store,
two hotels, feed stable, etc. A dancing
school is in full blast. From two to
three fights per week are recorded
among the other pleasures. A good
school with over one hundred scholars
in attendance is one of the best features
reported. A daughter of Dave Prine,
aged thirteen, was buried on January
20th. Dick Miller's wife is dead died
of consumption. James Cottrell pro
poses to leave us in the spring lor old
Missouri. On the 27th ult., 20 ruiles
from Liukville, the snow was three
inches deep, and on the 24th the ther
mometer showed 17" below zero since
that time the weather has been pleasant
A gentleman from Oregon C-ity, a prac
tical assayer. has been at work at the
soap mines for some days, boring. He
had reached and bored into the rock
and was highly encouraged with the
prospect. Enough silver had been se
cured from the rock to make a small
brick. Some were ardent believers in
the richness of the soap, while others do
not go a cent on it.
THE GABBLE DISPATCH.
The Gabble dispatch, which we pub
lished last week (the authorship of
which is now ascribed to Gov. Grover)
has been deciphered by the Detroit
Tribune. It reads as follows ;
"1 shall decide every point in the case
of the postoffice elector in favor ot the
highest Democratic elector ami wil
erant certificates accordingly. The rule
r?1 tor the morning of the sixth in con
sequence of confidential demonstration
? is absolutely perfect."
A LARGE SHARK.
A few days ago a mammoth shark
came ashore a few miles south fif th
Umpqna river. This huge fish meas
ured thirty-five feet iu length, and all
who saw it pronounced it a monster.
A gentleman secured two wagon loads
of liver out ot his sharkship, from which
he expected to obtain at least five bar
rels of oil. Everything on the Pacific
coast seems to grow to enormous pro
portions. Gov. Wells was before the Louisiana
investigating ' committee on the 5th,
when Field undertook the cross-examination.
It was a warm occasion, and
for once Fields more than found his
match. Wells and Anderson have been
kept confined in the dungeon, a place,
according to James Wilson's statement,
not fit for beasts to live in. The walls
are damp and slimy, and water drips
from the ceiling. This reminds one of
Confederate times, when Anderson vllle
and other death-holes were used by
these same "Reformers." Ain't the
"Tilden Reformers" crowding things a
leetle to much.

Ogallala Sioux, under Crazy Horse, in
tlie valley of Tongue river below Hang
ing Woman's creek, on the 1st, Sd, 7th
and 8th of January, giving the Indian"
good whipping, and succeeded in
driving-' 4hem through the canyons of
Wolf or Panther"' mountains. There
were some. six hundred lodges, well sup
plied with arms- and ammunition, but
otherwise were in a destitute condition.
Some of the Indians captured had their
limbs frozen, and were Jiving oo horse
meat. The command " were outnum
bered two or three to one, but their loss
was .but three killed and eight wound
ed. The Indians lost heavily. The
weather was severe, and the snow from
one to three feet deep.'
On the 1st inst, Harvey Kanoff shot
and killed !"eott Osburn in Lane coun
ty. Kanoff was living on a land claim
which both parties claimed. Osburn
came to the cabin which Kanoff had
erected and in which he was residing,
on the McKenzie above H inkle's fer.
ry,and ordered-. Kanoff to leave, threat-
euing to kill him if he did not go. Os
burn commenced cutting down a tree
standing near the cabin, avowed pur
pose of felling it upon the house, when
Kanoff shot Osburn, the shot taking ef
fect just below the - nipple, from the ef-
fect of which he died in four hours.
Kanoff went immediately to Eugene
City, gave himself up,' and upon pre
liminary examination was hound ever
in $2,500 to answer. -
David Dudley Field has overreached
himself again by, his "smartness." In
questioning Littlefield (his own wit

deliberate fal.eh-od ! W hen I is atten

chagrined. Even Democrats are get.
ting thoroughly disgusted with this
bulldozing Tildenite.
