Tbe Democracy have no cheater
cause for felicitation than is afforded
them by the recent endorsement of
Grant and his administration by
the late Radical State Convention
of Pennsylvania. . If it were left to
the Democracy to name the Radical
candidate for 1S72 it is more than j
probable that Hiram Ulysses would j
bo the man, for he is certainly de
veloping tbe most astounding politi
cal weakness and has been steadily
losing ground with his party almost
8 nee the day of his official exaltation.
Reviewing tJe situation to-day an
impartial judge could not but fix
upon him as among the weakest of
those named for the Republican nom
ination. Under his administration venality
and corruption have been the distin
guishing features in government af
fairs and the interests of the people
have been wholly subjected to con
siderations of party success. Demo
cratic papers are not alone in charg
ing this, but leading Republican
organs unite in exposing the corrup
tion that prevails in the Government
under Grant.
The Cincinnati Commercial, a jour
nal of undoubted Republican charac
ter, upon this very point says:
"Corruption is not confined to high
places, nor is it bred in low places.
Jt'oliical otHcc of every grade is naught
continually, not" for its honors, still less
for it. usually meagre salary, but for
the opportunities for emolument which
ill V'V liO. UtU lit UI1UII1VA AU
the race for nominations, and the suc
cessful candidate is the object of envy
to his competitors, not because they
have lost an opportunity to do the
country service, or t link their names
with progress of reform, but became
jrrand chance for money-makinjr has
been lost. Administrative offices,
legislative offices, ami even judicial of
fices (the last refuge forjustice and hon
or in our political system), have come
to be sought as opportunities for ac
quiring wealth far more than as hon
orable arenas for the exercise of talent
or of virtue."
Even tbe judicial ermine has not
passed through the reign of corrup
tion . which has . prevailed during
Grant's term without being sullied.
Suspicion now lowers upon the
highest tribunal in the land and a
cloud darkens the fair fame of a
judiciary that from the foundation of
the republic has been held sacred
and incorruptible. But we have
Hepublican authority that it too has
fallen into disrepute and is as venal as
the legislative and executive branches '
-of the government. For all of these
things Grant is responsible and the
degradation of the Supreme Court
was consummated by hi3 direct con
nivance and order.
With the weight of odium that his
public acts have brought upon him,
. it would be an easy task for the De
mocracy to defeat him in 1872, even
with the force bill in his favor. The
Democracy therefore can have no
serious objections to his re-nomination.
- They are disposed rather to
favor his re-nomination, that an issue
may be made between imbecility,
corruption and national dishonor, as
represented by Grant on the one
side, and ability, . parity, and in--tegrity,
which' will find sn embodi
ment in Hendricks, Pendleton, Thur
ram or some acknowledged man of
lbs same sahoel on the "other.
"With such a condition of things
tie Democracy will assuredly succeed
-without an effort. The respectable,
intelligent thinking men of the Re
publican party will no more swallow
Grant again than would the Democ
r icy that cartoon upon decency and
p ilitical integrity, Ben. Butler.
Thosbo have watched the signs of
the times cannot fail to have per-
ieved how utterly low Grant has
r-if r ti. --i- i

the government, that there should
remain no doubt of the certainty of a
change in the policies that have pros
- trated and disgraced the country.
uith this view Democrats could
hardly refuse to applaud the re
nominationof Grant.

SUPEELATIVE CHECK.
One of the Radical papers of Ore
Democratic party was dangerous and
"not to be trusted with powerl"
Now we would -like to ask if the
mongreli are the special custodians
of the affairs of this country for "all
coming timev" that they presume to
say who shall and who shall not be
"trusted with poVer." Democracy
has lived through many long years
of history; it has weathered the
storms when all" other adventurers
were wrecked; it made this Govern
ment what it was when the present
traitors and usurpers forced them
selves into power; it 6hed its influ
ence alike upon all States; guaran
teed to States and people their
inherent rights, and at the time
when Bjch men as Butler, Grant
Logan and the other leaders of the
Radical party betrayed the Democra
cy into? the hands of their enemies,
this was the most prosperous and
happy country "that e're the sun
shone on,n and, now, for the Repub
lican party to rise up in its in
fancy, as it were, and solemnly de
clare that the party which has lived
through generations shall not be
"trusted with power," in the temple
built with their own hands, is a piece
of impudence and arrogance that
would be astonishing if it came from
any othef source than a Massachu
setts fanatic.
The Democracy have been entrust
ed with national power in years past,
and are now in power in nearly one
half of the States of the Union, and
their glorious record is a sufficient
refutation of the Radical lie that they
cannot be trusted.
THE LATE SUEEENDEE.
.We publish elsewhere the Ohio
State Democratic Platform, which
our readers will perceive is almost
identical with the Yallandigham abor
tion to which we alluded last week.
It seems, however, that the State
Convention was by no' means a unit
in the adoption of the rotten mongrel
concern, and that nearly half of that
large assemblage uttered their pro-,
test and recorded their totes in op
position to it; but the noble minority
were voted down, and Yallandigham
achieved his victory and it was a
most despicable achievement and one
which cannot foil to result disastrous,
ly to the cause to which he has al
ways professed devotion.
The Joint Committee of the Senate
and the House of Representatives,
appointed to investigate the alleged
outrages in the South, instead of vis
iting the Southern States to see the
condition of affairs for themselves,
have appinted a sub-committee to sit
in "Washington and take testimony.
The first act of the Committee was to
vote its members eight dollars per
diem, and ten cents for every mile of
travel, coming, going, and diverging.
Witnesses are to be allowed two dol
lars a day and ten cents a mile for
travel; and on those terms there will
be no difficulty in finding men to
swear that there isaKu-Klux gong
in full operation in every county in
the Southern States. This farcial in
vestigation will cost the country
thousands and thousands of dollars,
and will probably result in a mass of
contradictory evidence, of no value
whatever, except as a pretext for the
continuance of th iniquitous law at
tempting tc constitute Gen. Grant
Dictator.
G east's smut machine, the Senate,
has again adjourned, after perform
ing all the dirty work that the dirt
iest of 'administrations had cut out
for it. It is no wonder that the
Senate is so fit an instrument for a
vile President when such men as
Morton, Cameron and Chandler rule
it. Morton is physically elemented
by his loathsome and disgusting hab
its; Cameron is known to ascend the
ladder of notoriety by the use of
money; while Chandler is a notori
ous drunkard and blackguard.
Vhere could there be lour men,
better capable of corrupting the na
tion's political morals, than Grant,
Morton, Cameron, and Chandler?
We leave honest men to decide.
V ill somebody please , tell us
where the Radical principles leave
off and ' the Democratic begin in that
Buckeye Platform which we publish
elsewhere? We have taken a pair of
tongs and turned the thing upside
down, rolled it over on its back and
Hooped it down on its belly again,
but can't discover any starting point
from which to commence its dissec
tion. We are afraid to cut into it
for fear of severing an intestine ca
nal and filling the air K'ith a pesti-
1 jnce-breeding malaria.
.Caufobxia Chops. A dispatch from
San Francisco, dated last Saturday,
saysr The prospects of the wheat
crop for 1871 is freely discussed on
'Change to-day. It is conceded by
everybody that the late cool weather
has increased the prospective yield at
least 33 per cent. Many think that
the surplup for export this year will
fall very little, if any, short of last
year, and it is believed that there
will-be 115,000 tons more than is re
quired for domestic use.

I'rcxiJeoi, a Yice Prcsidout from each
Conjrronstonal District, and W. Ileisloy
u. Secretary. Genorul (. W. Morgan
submitted a series of resolutions as the
report of 17 out of 19 member of tho
Committeo on Resolutions, and moved
their adoption. Tho first and second
resolution are:
1st. Denouncing the extraordinary
mentis by which they were brought about,
we recognize as accomplished incta the
three amendment io fact to the Con.ttU
stution recently declared adopted, fund
the eame are no loogor political issues
before the country.
2d. We domaud the rule of strict
construction as proclaimed by the Dem
ocratic futhers, accepted by statesmen of
all parties previous to the war and embod
ied in the lUth amendment to the Con
titution, to bo rigorously applied to tho
Constitutions as itU, including tho three
recent amendments, shall not be held to
have in any respect altered or modified
the original theory of the character of
the Federal Government, but ouly to
have powers detonated to it, nud to that
exteot end no wore to have abridged
reserved rights of States: and as thus
construed, the Domocratio party pledges
itself to a faithful and absolute execu
tion and enforcement of the Constitu
tion as it now is, so as to secure equal
rights to all persons under it, without
distiuctiou of race, color or condition.
The third resolution deoUres that ab
solute equality of every State in the Un
ion ia a fundamental principle of Fedci
al Government. .
The fourth declares opposition to tho
attempts at ccntrulizatiou of the General
Government and adherence to that prin
ciple of maintaining perfect independ
ence between co ordinate departments of
Government.
The fifth repudiates the doctrine that
any law or legislative policy cf any party
is a finality, and declares the right ot
the people to alter or repeal them.
1 he sixth demands of Congress as
eminently appropriate, legislation on the
14th amendment and 1-ederal amnesty.
The seventh denounces the wo-called
bayonet bill and the Ku Klux bill as uu
coiiHtitutional and tending to eUbi'th
military despotism in placo of free gov
ernment.
The 8th opposes San Domingo annex
ation.
The 9th calls for a strict revenue
tariff.
The 10th condemns the policy of the
Administration in regard to laud subsi
dies, its financial schemes and national
banking system.
The lltb Uvors revenue reform.
The 12th declares that the bondhold
er should be paid only in the same cur
rency he loaned Government, whether
it be gold or currency: that currency
should be made convertible ioto 3 per
cent, bonds at the option of holders; and
as the true method of returning to specie
payments, custom duties should be pay
able iu legal tenders, whether paper or
gold.
The 13th is appeal to tbe people re
gardless of past party affiliations, to ral
ly under the banner of reform and aid
in relieving the people from abuses
which wrong and oppress ail but wrong
doers. Tbe 14th favors tbe calling of a Con
vention of States.
Yallandigham submitted a motion for
the adoption of the resolutions.
Frank Hejarde, in behalf of the two
members ot the Committee, moved to
strike out the first and second resolutions

that he did not consider it necessary
for him to reply, and proceeded to
sentence Mrs. Fair to be hanged on
the 28th of July. Mrs?air main
tained almost her -usual composure, 1
unt Mrs. Lane, her mother, wept
hysterically, while Mrs. Pitts Stevens,
and other strongr-minded females
present, manifested their sympathy
in a marked manner, Mrs. Stevens
embracing Mrs. - Lane, - and tel
linsr her she had done all she
could for her, daughter, then going
over to the reporters, said: "You
have npw what you want; now, havn't
you? You have got her hung;" it

Declixe 1.1 Bacon. The prssent
indies tioris are that bacon will be from
4 to 5 cents lower on the pound this
year in this valley than last. There is
but one solution to thfs decline in prices,
and that is, the fact that Mr. Crocs, the
principal dealer in Oregon bacon, has
turned bis attention to Chicago fur his
uxnal supply, instead of depending on
this State. He has already shipped to
San Francisuo from Chicago 300,000
lbs of ba-on, and has as much more
contracted for, to supply this and the
California market. Mr. Cross has al
ways been a liberal buyer in his line
from our farmers, but he found last
winter that thd prices were too high to
afford a profit on the largo contracts he
then had, and as Chicago prices presen
ted a margin for profit, he visited that
place aod pursued the course above in
dicated, c tVhile we regret this decline
in prices of bo con, it is but tbe leiti
rnatd result of tho opening of shipping
facilities with the Western States, and
our farmers must hereafter expect to
compete with the farmers of that section
to the California, market in Jarni pro
duce. And they may, before many
months, find the competition extended
to Oregon, in others articles than bacon.
Mr. Cross's sales in San l rsncicco, lust

831.000. mostly sides. Salem States
