GOVEIiXOS-SEr-nETAST CHAD.
WICK.
Mr. Chad wick, Secretary of Stale, is
sues his proclamation declaring himself
Governor of the State of Oregon. The
proclamation is signed "S.F. Chad wick,
Covernor; By tho Governor, S. F.
tiadwick, Secretary of State." The
Constitution ot the State ot Oregon
eays that "in case of the removal of the
-Governor from office, or his death, res-
. Jgnation or inability to discharge the
duties of the office, the same shall de
volve upon the Secretary df State."
As the same Constitution declares that
no person shall hold more than one lu
crative office at the same time, Chad,
certainly will not claim that he fs Gov
ernor as well as Secretary of State !
And yet he has signed his proclamation
in both capacities ! It is just possible
that Stevey is running altogether on
"by-laws," and hopes in thefe unsettled
times to get away with the "honors"
and profits of both positions. It is hard
to tell what a ring Democrat won't do
these days.
We see it stated that some of the
leading Democratic politicians are ad
vising the Democrats composing the
electoral commission to resign ! The
Democrats have had their own way in
the matter ot making the electoral
commission ; they had the majority and
unless they had voted for the bill au
thorizes such a commission it could
never have been formed ; but, as this
-commission seems to be determined to
do its duty honestly in the premises
finding Hayes and Wheeler elected,
the choice ot the people, they will so
announce your honest Democratic pol
iticians would like to disorganize and
destroy the work of their own hands!
But we don't believe such counsels will
prevail, but the rote will be counted,
nd the Republican candidates duly
declared elected. 'Bah.
Apparently oar entire population
(male) turned out yesterday afternoon
to witness the Chinese exhibition on
First street. The most terriffio beating
of gongs, etc, aided by thousands of
exploding fire-crackerf, bombs, etc.,
created such a din that we began to
think the "wah" had really commenced.
This thing may be fun for the boys but
its getting terrible old with os, and
we'd willingly sell oar interest in the
how for a last year's almanac Give
us a rest. ,-"... .- ,. -

XOir AXD TIIEX.
In 1872 Sec. Chad wick gave to each
of tlie Presidential electors a certificate
of their election. In 1877 he handed
all tlie certificates (in one envelope) to
Croirin, who was not elected and had no
title to them under the sun ! And this
is why little Chad, has lost prestige in
his own party as well an the Republi
can. Secretary, now Governor Chad
wick, has cooked his political goose in
fact he' burned it to a cinder ! Poor
Chad!
HESIGXED I1IS OFFICE.
It lias been said that "Democrats die,
but they never resign office." But it
it is really true as is reported, that Bill
Watkinds has resigned his office of Su
perintendent of the Penitentiary, then
for once at least the saving above quot
ed is untrue. Thfi nlaoo maAa varMl nr.
by Watkhnl's resignation or removal
has been filled by the appointment of
Capt. IS. t. Burch, ot Polk county
We are in hopes that the
new Super-
intendent will be
an improvement on
the old.

Lato dates say that the Sioux under
Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse are verv
anxious to make peace, and of course to
be allowed to come into the Agencies
and be clothed and led ! The reverses
they have met with of late at the hands
of the soldiers, but more particularly
their sufferings from cold awl hunger,
have admonished them that it is about
time to make "peace," get filled up, re
blanketed and armed that they may be
better prepared to do good ecalping !
Give the poor Indian another chance,

An exchange directs attention to the
fact that the compromise bill mav not
be constitutional, but when five judges
of the supreme court have acted under
its provisions a maiorilv of the nnnrt
have declared it constitutional, and
there you are, you know. The framers
of the measure were careful to have it
declared constitutional by the highest
judicial tribunal in the country, by the
simple enfbrcemenfot its provisions.
On the 13th there were 76,000 stran
gers, in New Orleans, called there to
witness the carnival on that day.
The programme ot the day was fully
earned out, the subject of the process"
sion being "history ot the military prog
ress of the world." The period of time
covered was from 1,500 years before
Christ to date. It was a brilliant af
fair, requiring twenty-four cars to rep
resent the different scenes.
At the telegrapher's ball held in Chi
cago on the 12th, music was transmit
ted over tho wires, by means of Elisha
Gray's telephone, from Milwaukee, with
great success. The wires were run into
the several newspaper offices, and the
prints enjoyed the newest luxury mu
sic by telegraph. This is indeed a fast
age.
The suspicion of corruption in the
manner of Grover's election to the Sen
ate is so strong, that that body will be
compelled to investigate the matter. It
is confidently asserted by those who
are supposed to know whereof they
speak, that so great will be the
amount of corruption disclosed, ' that
Grover will be excluded from a seat in
that august body. And then this base
fraud will crawl into his hole and pull
the hole in after him.
In the matter ot the Louisiana vote.
the Democrats claim that two of the
Hayes electors were ineligible, as the v
held office at the time they were elect
ed. The tact will be shown that both
the electors resigned their offices, and
the board, afterwards, elected them to
fill vacancies. The Democratic Con-
gressmen sim.pl y oppose the counting of
the rote for Hayes to let themselves
down easy. After each terrible threats
of blood and carnage they must do some
thing to show they have a little cour
age left.
