Onr readers all remember that for the past three months we have been from week to week giving a summary of Radical stealings as they have come to our knowledge throngh the tele SPaph and other sources. Well, as the quarter 13 now up we have taken pains to run over our files anl aM up the several amounts, and are even our Belf astonished at the prodigious ar ray of figuresSGl,6S7,000 ! And of course we hav'ut heard of half of the stealings, because the majority of the rogne3 get away with their booty and embark in some other business with the capital, leaving their tracks so well covered up aa to elude detection. In the light of these facts it is safe to assert that in the past three months the startling sum of one hundred mil lion dollars have been stolen from the people's treasuries by Radical offi cials ! If this is "the best Govern ment the world ever saw," God pity the worst ! The Oregoniah and Statesman, fly into terrible tantrums because we mention the u wavs that are dark" of certain late Radical State officials who got np a snug little " corner" on the jieople's money by disrupting the Legislature before an appropriation bill Was passed; and the former j journal attempts the pitiful dodge of j threatening to expose some Demo- j crat, whom it asserts" is another," if , we don't refrain from a further al"- lasion to this matter. Now, as we are not defending Democrats from any disruptable actions of which they may have been guilty, we beg to de mur being snuffed out in this way.- The late Republican administration of j Oregon has committed gross abuses upon the public confidence, and its party must be held responsible; and if any Democrat is likely to suffer ex posure in the operation, let him stand from under or take the consequences. You can't muzzle the Democratic press by any such an empty subter fuge as that, Mr. Oregonian. We Coxcur. The Salem Mercttry, in copying and endorsing our article of last week in favor of suitable legis lation to regulate freights and trans portation tariffs, urges the coming Legislature to pass- a law requiring the Radroad Company to fence their track. This should cetainly be done. Hon. Geo. R. Helm favored such a measure at the last session, but ' was choked off by the specious cry of "un friendly legislation, and 6ince that time many cases have arisen where the people have suffered annoyances and losses by the want of such an en actment. - Jonas Davis, Esq , , of Shedd's Station, a fewdays ago lost a valuable cow by a train of cars rnn--ning over her, and now Mr. D. is com pelled to bring suit against the Com pany tor the recovery of her valne. Nearly all other States have a fence law, in respect to railroads, and it is regarded as a benefit both to the peo ple and the Company. The Northern Pacific Railroad company has jnst closed ft contract with the locomotive establishment of Baird & Co., of Philadelphia, for fifty first-class engines ; for the road. The Philadelphia Post congratulates its readers on the fact that in addition to these and some forty other engines, the Northern Pacific Railroad compa ny, have '. already purchased : railroad material in Philadelphia to the amount of $5,000,000.' r : " V ;1; ' ' Senatorial. -Last week Senator Sherman was re-elected Senator by the Ohio Legislature, by 6 majority. over Gen. Morgan, the Democratic candidate. In Iowa Senator Harlan was defeated for re-election by Hon Wra. B. Allison. " This shelves the infamous Harlan, we hope, forever. " WHAT A EE THE ISSUES? s Radical newspapers affect to be lieve that the Democratio party is so terribly demoralized that it will be nnable to center upon a consistent and barmonious platform in the ap proaching campaign. The Orcgonian asserts Shat tho only platform which Democrats seem to have is "How to beat Grant." We confess, as an hum ble member of that party,, to a reason able desire to secure Grant's defeat, because we believe with his downfall will perish many of tho most iuupit tious practices that ever disgraced any civilized ' Government ; and we believe that a sufficient catalogue of abuses uuder his Administration cau be made up to satisfy the people of the necessity of a change in the Fed eral Administration. Grant's own imbecility, dishonesty and corruption, the present and rapid drifting of our Government toward despotism, the haughty deportment and arrogant measures of the executive, his efforts, regardless of right, liberty and justice, to secure the pepcrtnatiou of his pow er, tho inequality of taxation, the sub ordination of the civil to the military authority and a hundred other wrongs, all call for the overthrow of the party in power. This the Democratic party can easily accomplish. Rut in order to do so, it must have a platform that shall meet the approval of the puople. In its declaration of principles it must be careful to leave nothing unsaid, nor say too much. Honesty, econ omy, equal taxation, the reduction of tho tariff, protection to tho working man, the restoration and preservation of State rights; principles, the major ity of which are iguorcd by the party iu power, should be embodied in the platform; and then, with a bold, able, honest and competent representative ot true Democracy to head our ticket and lead us to battle, we must surely wui. 1 lie issues are last nemg mane np, and our prospects for a victory grow brighter and better every hour Let us keep up our organization, work diligently and unceasingly, rekindle our watchfires, raise the time-honon-orcd banner of Democracy high over all, and press determinedly on to a glorious victory. DEMOCRATIC UEWSPAPESS. It is the duty of Democrats in the country to support their county Dem cratic paper. If able to take but one Democratic paper, let that be the one published in vour county, If able to take other papers, give preference to those most earnest in defence of Dem cracy most earnest to attack Repub licanismmost determined in behalf of the people, and for the protection of their earnings. It is the duty of Democrats to stir port Democratic papers those papers that speak out openly, boldly; but it. is not the duty of Democrats to gup port papers which are timid, undecid ed, and utterly worthless. Follow not the bngle that srives uncertain sounds. Let Democratic newspapers be properly patronized and Democratic victories would be more frequent and more easily achieved. He who doubts the power of the press, would do well to study the effect of the great circu lation which Radical papers have had among the people all over this coun tFy, and he who doubts that tho more extensively circulated Dcmo- cratic newspapers become, the befter will be the prospects of the Democra cy, can have but little faith in Democ racy or in the intelligence of the peo ple. - - ' . Look at the Tariff Viixaixt! The prices in England and in the United States of SewiBg Machines, show how the Tariff protects the monopolist, and oppresses the sewing women: Price in En. In tho U. S. Wheeler t Wilson $15 00 $85 00 New Singer 32 50 69 00 E1U Howe ... 35 00 65 00 The above prices are for exactly the same classes of machines as sold in both countries this is according to the sworn affdavit in Cleveland of G. W. Wilson, the President of the Wil son Sewing Machine Company. Just think of that ! Two prices charged for the Sewing Machine paid mostly by toiling ! -that rich men may grow richer! . . ' . . Think of a system of taxation which makes us pay $85 for a Sewing Ma chine instead of $45- a tax, not im posed for the purpose of raising reve nue for the Government, but to pat money in the pockets of wealthy man ufacturers ! ' What is this but rob bery? ' ' n ; Mrs. DuxiwatJs circulating a petition for , signatures, asking Con gress to pass an act declaring women to be voters under the 14th Anicnd- bnent to the Constitution. Now, if wo uj ta Ke not, me courts are ine proper tribunals to apply to for a de cision : upon the question, ' and not Congress, The . latter body passed the act. and it was ratified by the States, and now the Supreme - Court of the United States must1 pass upon its validity and define who are en tiled to vote !under its provisions.- We do not believe that a declaratory act of Congress would have any effect whatever in establishing the status of women under that - Amendment. That measure, was passed for the ben fit' of ;the negroes, and the .women must wait for another amendment be fore they can , be placed on an eqnal footing with the 6alie "man and brother."
