Everybody will want to hear them speak, and the Court House will be filled. Every man. woman and child Is interested in tlte result of the coming election. Speaking at 1 P. M. . The National Republican Convention vt called to order on Tuesday at 1 P. M. by the Chairman of the National Republican Com m. mo. r . uotir. 01 Massachusetts, na elected temporary Chairman. Amoni tlie Vice Presidents wipmre the name of Hon. O. F. Toninklns, of Ilarrtobntg, Oregon, ana among the Secretaries the name of Ron. 1.:. Ireland, of Astoria. The work of the Conven tion, perfect inn ' omrxn brat ion, etc., took up the nay, and nominations would not be reached until yesterday. If so early. . Jt -was thought Staine chances, with Washburne as second on the ticket, were on top. We will probably know to-day. ... r . The only thing that onr Democrat !c friends can urge against the Republican candidates for the Supreme bench Is that they are too young. Thls-ts no objection at aM. If a man at thirty-ove baa not a Judicial mind he never will have; In fact at that age a man has reached his prtirte. btsmi.id Has matured; all his pnw ri are Vigorous, an j he is more likely to make a competent judge than at fjfijr or sixty, when decline commences. They have youth, strength and ability oa their side, and in each are the superior of their opponents. ; Ail good men nnlte In condemning the spirit manifested by certain papers and correspond- lts. In the presentcavwM, we mean the low - d groveling spirit of "abuse and tnendacity vard toe candidates ea both the Hepubli- I and Democratic tickets; This kind of campaigning" is simply a new stylo of black, mailing, and all parties who have engaged in this cowardly mode of "getting even" deserves a eoat of tar. and leathers and then to be kick ed into tne Pacific ocean. Them no-snuled brainless Idiots have no more claims on human ity than a hyena, and. when ever they force themselves, through any chance of fortune, into society, the. very moment they show their forked leagues that moment it should be torn out by tbe roots. Ticket. We are not Surprised at the issuance ol bogns tickets by the Democratic leaders. They see that the popster voice is against thein, and are ready to craop any straw that offers aid in their distress. But we are snrprteed to see that on the Srean back" ticket Lsned by thm, only the names of the Democratic Slate and dlWict candidates appear. Have tlte riemocratic managers given ttp all hope of their county ticket? Or are lliey, willing t o sacrifice the coanty candidates in the hopes ofelect iiig part of tlte State ticket ? - . . Tkat B11XUU. A man named Jack Houston, of Scio, has Is sued some handbills which contain certain charges against Mr. Mason, Democrat ic candi date for t'owrtty Clerk, hnt did not append his name to the bills. - The bills were printed, we believe, in Portland, some weeks njro, at the instance of the above named gentleman, no one else having anything to do with them whatever. It aas and is u private matter for which Mr. Houston is alone responsible. ' We have nothing to say of the contents of the hand bill more than this, that tbe Republican can Cjklates, Individually or collectively, had no part or lot in tne matter In any wav. shnnenr reform. Tbe Republican party is not making a tight in any each manner. and we emphatically . deaownee tt as none of our thunder; and when any insa charges that Mr. Battm or either of tbe 'bacan candidates Or their friends bad - eay iHf d b the matter, he lies, Every man on tbe Bepubikan ticket is at least the equal of bis opponent in honest y and capability ; every one has lived for years in lanaeosmry, and Is identified with the inter stoef Its citizens. Tbe ticket from beginning to end is entitled Xo the faithful snpport of every bon est , st might for a rd citizen, who de sires reform and retrenchment in State and county aitalis, and certainly no Republi an can have a valid reason for not giving every matt on the ticket his earnest and bearty sup port. .Weaprcal to every right thinking man in the county to carefully weigh the questions at issue ; the great need of reform; the past -Cfiljdpc of those in power; the argent needs of tbe present ; and after a careful suvey of the whole, subject, be he ever so blind and zealous apartisan.wearef ally con vinced he will he Induced to vote the Republican ticket, as in the success of t ha t ticket is the only hope of equal and just taxation and an economical w managcineut of the State and county affairs.

It will be remembered that lion. D. P. Porter, Republican candidate for Assessor, was elected to the ofikia of Assessor of Linn county in 1S63, and is therefore per fectly familiar with tle dntles of the office. In 1861. one hundred am forty-seven days was consumed in assessing lite comity, at a cost ot $441. Mr. Porter came Into office and made hi fitst assessment In 1SG2. lie acvomplislied his work in one hundred and five days, forty-two days less time titan liia predecessor hi 1861, thus saving to the taxpayers of tlte county one hundred and twenty-six dollars. And the assess ment was more thorough and systematic than ever be lore, and gave the fullest sat isfaction to the property owners ot the county. And this is the kind ot a 111:111 tl.e Republicans have nominated for the office of Assessor. AtsJ we say it with pride, po more honest or competent man Mian Mr Porter tor tlie position can be found in he county. Careful in his w ok. . - m possessed of sound judgment, no man in the county has' a clean r or more correct idea of values, and therefore his assess ment will be impartial' and satisfactory to all. The present Assessor charged for 400 days for the last assessment, at a cost to taxpayer offl.20O.' Should Mr. Porter be elected to the office or Assessor, tlie cost of our -next assessnint - will be reduced one-half. Taxpayers-should look to their interests hi this matter, and elect a man who will do the work more satisfactorily, and in at least half the time. "Economy is wealth." Out ol Tbelr Own tbe We Judge 1 Mr. Stewart, our-Greenhack friend, re lies upon his In attfy to elect hlin lo the Coltnty Judgship ; Judge Flinn relies upon his undisputed qualifications and fit ness, to secure tlie votes ot the PEOPLE for tlie office ; Lark Bilyen says he is a Democrat, and deems that an all-snfficlcnt requisite, and relies entirely Upon tlie col or ol his politics fr his election. In all candor we ak the people of Linn county if they do not require something mure of tlie candidate for County Jndge than the mere fact that a young ad untried man has voted the Democratic f n-ket Do not the voters ot Linn county realize that the office ot comity Judge is tlie most Import ant office in the county ? If this question be answered in tlie affirmative, as it mtit be, will the mere announcement that the candidate for the office is a Democrat be deemed a sufficient claim upon the people for thsir suffrages ? , Can the people of LI tin afford to take the cliances on such a man ? It Lark Bilyeu. during the few months lie lias been engaged in the prac tice of law, or his triends,can show wherein lie lias evinced any fitness whatever tor a nn-political office, inch as the County Judgship, let him or them bring it to light. Let everj' tub stand on Its own bottom.' Judge Flinn lias, through years of success ful practice at tlte bar of Linn comity, ac quired a name and reputation tlmt places him at the very head ot the legal profession; and that lie possesses every requisite ot abil ity and thorough - understanding of alt matters that will be brought before him, no man will deny. Is it not best to be on the safe side ? A vote lor Flinn is a vote for economy and the careful and under standing management of .county affairs. Sftarleusi Tickets. Tickets were printed the other morning, long before people generally get up, that are calculated to deceive voters. Ostensi bly tliey are Greenback tickets, but tliey Contain tlie names of Whiteaker, for Con gress, the Democratic candidates for Presi dential electors. Supreme Judges, as well as Circuit Judge and Prosecuting Attorney tor this district. Of course this is a me.in business, and now that we have exposed it. mar not be used its extensively as it otherwise might have been, but they were to h:ive been sent out over the county "where they conld do the most good." and are doubtless now In the hands of parties who will use tliem. This makes at least one fact plain tlie Democratic leader know their case is desperate, and they intend to use any means to elect at least the political jiortlqp of their ticket. Let every voter scan his ticket well before plac ing it In the ballot Wx. Prof- J. L. Gilbert, oneot the eldest and most successful educators in the State, is the Republican candidate for Svliool Sit prlutendeut. It is not necessary for us to say one word In commendation ot Prof Gilbert, because he Is well known in most every portion of tlie county, and his quail ficatlons are undisputed. His pure moral and temperate life are - not among his smallest recommendations for the office. We hope lie will he elected, for we need just such men in office men who are in terested in the great' cntise of education. and who will use ail their ability and en ergy fii "perfecting and making broader the grand scheme of universal education. He Is not a politician wtHise entire time will bn enerossed in working up scliemes lor party advantage htit a Christian gentle man who will take pride In doing well tlie work of his office, sm! advancing the grand educational Interests Of Linn county, Vote for Prof. Gilbert and you will not regret your vote Let every Republican constitute himself a committee of one, to labor for the success of the ticket from now until the close of tlie polls on election day. See that every Remtblican is at the polls and votes on tlmt day. Republicans bave been remiss In this duty in the past don't let them forget It on Monday. The Portland Standard gives the name of John Clay pool as tin! author of the scur rilous article which appeared in that paper a lew days ago. signed "Cumutx."

George never d'.d anything in his lite of any Im portance that is kuowu to the world, al though he has been a member of tlie State Senate, unless it was tlie record be made as G. ff, G..T, of Oregon, from which po sition lie has now fallen, and it is said, can tip tlie tumbler now as glibly as any other professional drinker." Now, such a con temptible lie as is contained in the last clause of the aliove quotation entitles its author to the appellation of chief of mean litir. We veot ire the assertion tl at the editor ot tlie East Oregonian pours down his hot throat more liquid Are in one dram than Mr. George has imbibed in an entire life. The editor finishes the above quotation as follows ; "We think, how ever, this is a mistake, tor we don't think George Is a man of sufficient calibre to become an expert at drinking. He is ot that class of men that -came over in tlie May Flower and landed on Plymouth Rock.' Yes. he is of a class of men that hi.ve brains, character. Handing and worth a class of men as far above the compre hension of tlie groyellng who indited the slur as 'lie difference between the past and eternity. Mr, J. .1. Charlton will make a most excellent Slieriff. lie is a mat) of sound judgment, goodhard common sense, and liberal education. jfe-Ms a temperance man, and white quiet and unassuming, he has the will and tbe "sand' to perform every onty devolving npon him as said of ficer faithfully, honestly and coirectly. He will get tlie solid vote of his neighbor hood, where his nomination is looked upon as a most excellent one. On tlie 01 her hand Mr. Miller, tils Democratic opponent, will not receive the endorsement of his own precinct where he is best known. Is it necessary for us to say anything more in regard to Mr. Stiller ? When a candidate cannot get the rote of his own neighbor hood, is there any inducement tor ottier precincts to cast their voles for him? And won't he be badly left! Democratic papers ask the votes of the people for Whiteaker, asserting that lie has accomplished so much for Oregon. But what has he done what has he ac complished ? If he has brought forward one sinxleTOPiisure in tlie interest of Ore gon, tell lis what It Is. The boast tlmt through Whiteaker influence the $40,000 appropriation for Yaqnina Bay was secured is tint true. Every matt, woman and child In Benton and Linn counties, at least, knows that the appropriation "was secured through tbe influence of Col. Hogg, an of ficer In tlie confederate service a man of talent and shrewdness, and consequently ot more influence than our entire delega tion In Congress. Gov. Whiteaker has never accomplished anything since he oc cupied his seat hi Congress, except draw his pay. If he has his friends don't know it. neither do hW enemies. Even now all kinds of false rumors and downright lies are in circulation as to what this or that Republican candidate should have said or done, and tha efforts to ndslead tlie unwary voter on Monday next will .be more than quadrupl.-d. Every conceivable mode of deception tvlll be resorted to in the effort to defeat tlie Republican ticket. Men who bear good Characters, and who would scorn to do a mean action In any dejmrtment of business, Wl!l on Monday next stoop to the lowest kind of trickery and deception to gain a vote tor tlie Democratic ticket. . Let every voter prove all things and hold fast to that which 1 good." In the present canvass Capt. N. B. Hum phrey has proved himself to be one of tlie ablest debaters in this conr.ty. His ever ready wit and scarcasni has captured his audiences, and his truthful and honest dis cussions ot the political i-wttes between the Republican and Democratic parties has convinced scores of Democrats of the errors of the party, and of the Imperative de mand tor change inthe county government. Affairs in New Mexico, according to late telegrams, are in a desperate state. Victoria and his band of not less tlian 330 warriors.

We dor.'t grumble at this style of campaigning It it suits our contemporary, so be it. A party of colored people have returned to Georgia from Liberia, and they pro nounce that "prooiled laud" ot their race a deludon and a snare. "It is a good conn try to go to in quest of starvation.

Terrible Cjrelwes Storms of wind and rain are of frequent occurrence In almost all parts of the world doing more or '.less ; damage to property and destroying human lite. . On. the 29th ult., a severe storm passed over Siifileld and Enfield. Conn., destroying barns, -tobacco sheds, etc,. and uprooting orchards and trees. One brick building was blown down and McCittiis green house, the larg est in the State, near br in Tttompsonvilte, was nearly destroyed. : On tlie same day a cyclone passed a few miles northwest of Evansvilte, 1 ltd., blowing down buildings, and killing Yank Wassomand Joe. Dcig. and severely injuring Mrs. Walter. On same date, near Calvert, Texas, the storm blew down houses and fences and ruined crops. Corn and cotton were stripped of blades and leaves, and oats leveled, witli tlie ground. On the night ot the 20th, a terrible cyclone visited Savoy, 011 the Tex as & Pacific destroying the town, killing nine persons and wounding sixty, and it is feared that some of the wounded will prob ably die. . At 1 : 30 on the morning ot tlie 29th tilt.. In BriH'kette, Texas, a most dis astrous stottn commenced, ami soon all the .town except por.lons'.ou two hills was io undated, the wattr 00 Main street being from Ave tt eigilffeer deep, m-hing down tlie street withalJfKVt uieredible rapidity. Tlie floor of cver business house was from one to five feel unuW water. More than twenty people were drowned. During tlie prevalence of a furious storm at San Saba, Texas, 011 same date, the family of P. M . Rount ree long refuge in a cave, resulting in tlie drowning of two ot tbis . little hoys, aged three and" six years respectively. Mrs. R. and little daughter and a young lady with tliem were taken nut In a drowning condition. Aud this is but a partial history of -a day's doings. What next ? As the camp'algn progresses it liecomes very plain to our. "Democratic Mend that the odd is against tiietn. Time was when to get the nomination for office at the hands of a Liun County Democratic Con vention was equivalent to an election, no matter how that nomination was obtaiued. Times have clianged. and now tobeehcted on the Democratic ticket, tlie candidate must be above suspicion even; he must have every necessary qualification to fill the office for which he is a candidate with hon or and credit, and he mu-t withal be a man who has tlie respect and confidence of his neighbors. If a candidate fail in apy of these h; will tail of an election. The Iemocratie County Convention, for some cause'. vIt is immaterial . what,, nominated several candidates who are looked upon as no filling the bill, and on MoimIhv next they will be left : and it will veri'y be Blue Monday to tnem.

Let us lay aside party prejudice and vote for SI. C.

It Is asserted that tlie Democrats In cer tain precincts are ftiarrncted to swop off all ilie bala'nce ot the ticket, if necessary, so that the election of Mason aud Miller is secured. This statement comes from Lebanon. The balance of the ticket may not like this who knows! Vote for J. B. Waldo. W. V. Lord and E. B. Watson for tlte Supreme - Bench, be cause tliey are coro-ictent. honest and true, and are not sin'rched with jobs, political trickery or deceit of any kind.

' Overfet Sine Mark. Every species of detraction and abuse has been heaped upon our candidates for the State Senate and County Clerk: Every old gossip's hint or tale that tlie malicious double-tongued slanderer collld invent has been dragged to the view of tlie public through the Democratic press, generally by some cowardly, white-Hvered sneak who dared net sign his name to his lying contributions. As they liad reason to be lieve tliat the Democrat would not print the!? dirty lies, they forwarded their ex cresences to Portland, tor publication., ,Bnf the authors of the foul libels liave overshot the mark, ftud what they intended as ef fective campaign arguments, have proven veritable boomerangs which in their re turn have increased tlie votes for our can didates.' We have heard but one express ion since tliese vile publications appeared, and that was ot universal condemnation of such low mendacity, and contempt for the coward that penned them. By tlie rise of such sneaking lies Capt. Humphrey andJ . . . in , . 1 sir. xx.oanm win receive nt least one hundred Democratic votes in Linn county more than they would have received, had an honorable course been pursued. The Democrats ot Coos Bay will doubt less forget to vote for Mr. Whiteaker. as he has through neglect -iir incompetency' tailed to get ft recommendation from the committee for an appropriation to con tinue the harbor- improvements at that place. Senator Mitchell secured $40,000 from the last Oingress to begin the work, and it was commenced with tlie expecta tion that Congress would appropriate suf ficient from time to time to insure the completion of this much needed improve ment within a few years at most. But Whiteaker has not asked tor anything, and as Congress will probably adjourn In a few days, tlie people of Coos Bay will hare to wait until next Congress, when Mr. George will be tliere to look after their interests. Now let the galled jade wince. The New York Star, the Tammany mouth piece, says, leferring to Tiiden : "We believe tliat the Democracy ot the Union is still manful and honest enough to affirm as a canlinr.l principle of its politural faith that no fraud, no coward, no trimmer, no lax-evader, no corrupt iouist. no occult cipherer, no selfish Intriguer, no railroad wrecker, no 'national calamity.' no tomeiitor of discord, no traitor to Democ racy can make himself dictator of a Na tional Democratic Convention." - The court ot inquiry in tlie case of Cadet Whlttaker have made their final report.
