4rc FRIDAY. JUNK 17, 1870, THE ELECTION. " The official reports from Baker, Coos, Grant, Josephine, Tillamook, : Umatilla, Union and Wasco have not been received. The official vote from the other counties give Palmer 91 ma jority, Wilson 296. Add to these the reported majority in Coss and Curry, 50, and the highest probable majority in Tillamook, 25, and Palmer will have 166, and Wilson 371. In Jo sephine county we have, according to the Sentitul, 79, majority, ' while the lowest figures reported for the coun ties East of the Mountains are: Ba ker 160, Grant 50, Umatilla 248, Union 190 Wasco 30 total 757. This gives Grover 591 majority, and Slater 386 in the State. Full official returns will vary this probably but little. TniTtlistATlJBE. The result of the election is much more gratifying than at first supposed. Instead of twelve majority on joint ballot, late returns show that we have seventeen Two years ago the House stood 29 Democrats and 18 Republi cans; Senate, 13 Democrats 9 Re publicans.

MbI S. C. Simpson, of Salem, has assumed editorial charge of the Ore- con Herald. Mr. Simpson was en gaged upon the Herald during the greater part of the canvass and ad vanced that paper to the position of a Signified and influential journal. He lias contributed a splendid effort to wards our splendid victory. Mr. Simpsoa is oae of the ablest men in Oregon, And his connection with the Herald promises for that paper a fu ture of great usefullness to the party and State. . The Oreypnian, before the election, tried to establish - the fact . that the Democratic party in Oregon ; was pledged to repudiation. The State has gone Democratic by a majority vote of some five hundred, . and the same party have - the Legislature on joint ballot by a majority-of seventeen. Is hd Oregonian willing to confess that the State is committed to repudi ation by these majorities, or will it ad mit that it has misrepresented the ma jority of the people of Oregon. Tbx Oregonian admonishes us with the fact that "the Republican party .-has already begun the next campaign." 'The Republican.' party did the' same thing two years ago; "Your party may begin the campaign as early as it likes, eu't will end it for you, .. M'FAKfcAKD ABROAD. Daxiel McFakiand, who committed an act of insanity, stealthily and with a pistol, upon Richardson, continues to obtrude himself upon the public. His whereabouts and intentions are telegraphed to all the papers from Chicago on the 13th inst. He is evi dently "doing" the big cities of the country, and it is to be hoped that Chicago will not be less , careful nor less appreciative, of , him than New York has been. Those who have read the World have doubtless been much affected to know that on a ' certain Wednesday morning he rode down town alone; that he had a copy of the Tribune in one hand and a copy of the World in the other; that he would oc casionally read with an unsteady eye a few pages of the supplement to the Tribune, clasp it to his knee and com mence muttering; that lie rode all the way to Vesey street; then walked quickly to a printing office; stayed a long time; that he entered the office of Mr. Gerry, on Park Row, and remain ed there some hours; that he left there at precisely 2:30 o'clock, and so on ad nauseam. For all of these highly in teresting and important details the world must forever remain indebted to the enterprise of the New York re porters. Chicago cannot do more, she owes it to herself not to do less. One half of the world has an un doubted right to bow down aad wor ship whomsoever it pleases, but this does not abridge the right of the oth er half to say just what it thinks. The jury found that McFarland, at the moment of the killing, was insane and acquitted him. We aro therefore to conclude that a man found to be sane would have been convicted for doi just as the prisoner did. However ludicrous thi3 thing of making insani. ty the patent to heroism may appear. it is mucn less ludicrous tnan serious and alarming. The theory of insanity has been pushed so far in this countiy that the killing in anger has almost become conclusive evidence of the in sanity. It is coming to this that men must shortly go about with their lives in other people's hands. The capri ces of the human mind are so great, and its purposes so perverse, that the man wnom you meet in the street or highway may conclude, with perfect safety to himself, to practice a little insanity upon you by proceeding in the most impromptu manner to shoot you in sundry disagreeable and vital places. This doctrine, established through the ingenuity of lawyers and the sympathies of juries, has gone nearly to the extent of granting im munity to a certain class of assassins, A few years since Daniel Sickles shot Keys in the most cool and cow- dly manner. The worldapplauded him because it said that Keys had de stroyed the puri.y of Sickles' wife, and it pointed with grateful pride to a sickening confession of shame, pub lished over the unhappy woman's .sig nature. Subsequent events go to show that the world was imposed upon by the artful Daniel ; that the pretended confession was extorted from an inno cent wife, as the price of a guilty hus band's neck, and oh the dying bed and with her latest breath, the long- suffering and martyred woman cast the foal aspersion from her name and proclaimed her innocence. Sickles is un whipped of justice, and a sense of the outraged laws of God and society can only find compensation in the re jection and the hope that there is ! a hell. ' The Cole HUcock affair fallows in the same footsteps . An estimable and useful citizen is murdered. The as sassin sacrifices his wife and saves himself. The jury pronounced Cole insane and the murdered man whose mouth can never open in his own de fense, guilty. The McFarland case stretched the rule much, farther. In this case, the wife; after years of intolerable abuse culminating in that last and greatest outrage a blow in the face summons her father, her friends and the man whom the law calls her husband, and informs that husband of her - full and resolute determination to then and there forever separate hferself from him. ' McFarland signifies his acqui esence. The woman procures, . at length, a divorce and then, in order to keep her from znarryiag another man and after; vainly trying to sell her sto len letters to the New York Democrat for $1C0, to be made a sensation of McFarland skulked into the Tribune office, shot his unsuspecting victim and walked forth to receive , the plaudits of vthe mob and a verdict of insanity and innocense at the hands of a jury. We honor Mr. Briek Pome- roy for saying that " those who are better than we may sympathize with such men."' It is time .that steps were taken to prevent the removal of all the long es- tablished safeguards of human life. If murder is to be no longer a crime because ' of insanity . that comes and goes with the act, then, as the least se curity that the Legislature can give society,, let make a law it punishing insanity, when it takes this form,'-with severe' penalties.' .1 .- , ". ...V.'1 ' " EXIT WILLIAMS. Mr. Geo. H.. Williams is receiving a little practical and experimental knowl edge of the vicissitudes of human life and the transitory character of earth ly greatness. . ' It is a severe lesson, but, we trust a thorough one. He was elected to the Senate after a ten years struggle. During that time he was alternately the tool and the sport of politicians. , The"war brought the so-called Union . party into power strong in numbers, but wofully weak in brains. ' Inspired wholly by the prevailing madness and a lust for of fice, it, unaccountably, had the pru dence to invite to its ranks and pro mote to its leadership every Demo cratic politician who could be tempted to sell himself and betray his party. However small these men were in the Democratic party they were Titans by comparison when they were surround ed by their new associates. Williams, from his equivocal position, whero he had been about equally engaged in exj ressions of devotion to the Union, and in cursing, in tho vernacular of the profane, the imbecile administra tion of Abraham Lincoln, saw his op portunity, and, for once, before it was too late, improved it. After one de feat, which came near converting him to peace Democracy, and when the contest had descended to such men as Pearne and Williams, the latter was elected. The Senator has never risen above the politician. His career in office is fully described in one short sentence A man of talent, a demagogue and trickster, whose practices wero often disreputable sometimes contempti ble. He was unscrupulous and shame less in the means by which he attempt ed to secure his own reelection. He reinstated Simpson and Lafollett in the agencies from which they had been removed, for the sole purpose of car rying for himself the Legislative tick ets in Benton and Polk counties. He ana liis menus are enargeu, and we believe properly, with having placed a, corruption fund in each of the coun ties of Union, Wasco, Multnomah, Yamhill, Polk, Benton, Douglas and Jackson for the purpose of corrupting electors, debauching the election aod defrauding the people. The tele graph has informed him of the result that attended upon these means, and has, we hope, called to his mind the old adage : "Corruption wins not more than honesty." With Mr. II ol laday to back him, with the Grand Ar my of the Republic to back him, with President Grant and the federal pat ronage within the State and the 15th Amendment thrown in, to bock him. Senator Williams is the worst beaten man of his day. Gbaxt Covxtt. Following are tho majorities (official) of the vote in Grant county all Democratic, except two.
