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.

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. Now the Legislature
stands as follows:

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.
