TESCIPITiTS AND TJ2TDUE HASTE.
We notice with feelings of mortifi
cation tliat many Eastern De'mocr.-Uio
exclianges which come to onr table
are already flying at their mast-heads
the nominees of the Cincinnati Con
vention the greater nnmber of them
without even accompanying the names
with the customary announcement
of " subject to the decision ot the Na
tional Democratic Convention." If
the Baltimore Convention sees no
other alternative but to form a coali
tion with the Liberal liepublicans
and endorse the nomination of tlree-
ley and Brown if in the wisdom of
that Convention it is deemed neces
sary to the salvation of our couutr to
., furl the battle-scarred Democratic
banner for a season and form an Alli
ance with those ot tha liepublicans
who have deserted the regular organ
ization of that party it seeras to ns it
will be time enough then to run up the
" Dolly Vardea" colors and begin the
fight upon the issues which such
an alliance will necessarily beget,
without now rushing into the anus of
the Greeley movement and forestall
ing the action of our regular Conven
tion. "We have surely fallen upon
evil times when Democratic papers
can be found flying a Republican tick
et at their mast-head before the masses
of the great Democratic party have
.given expression to their views
through a regularly authorized Coa-i-ention.
Upon this subject the Sonoma (CaL)
.Democrat very sensibl 3 observes that,
while the indorsement of Greeley and
Urown by the Baltimore Convention
is possible, it is not a matter of such
certainty as to justify time-servers in
flying off the handle, as some of theia
have done. It is ; not surprising that
the South, weary with waiting for a
release from her persecutors, shouhl
accept with avidity any candidate
that offers the hope of an escape from
.the intolerable tyranny ot the present
Administration; but why Democrats
in this State shooM be hi such uu
" seemly haste to indorse a life-long op
ponent, in the Cincinnati nominee, is
-surprising, when it is apparent to ail
hat the political tide is turning ia our
iiivor.
The Democratic Convention will
meet on the Otb of July. In this
body the wisdom of the party will be
assembled men of experience, who
have carefully considered the situation
.and are able to act intelligently
thpir dftrisinn will b the vorl nfpnm-
iiaand to all true Democrats. Mean
lime let nothing be said or done
which will create distention; let us
wait with patience until they have de
cided for ns. We hope and. believe
that they will avoid all entangling
alliances and. nominate a ticket that
all Democrats can heartily support;
such a course would accord with our
individual wishes. : If, on the contra
ry, they should adopt the Cincinnati
.platform and its candidates, all Dem
ocrats should occupy a position to en
able them to go into the contest de
termined to win without regard to
their individual preferences. There
is no necessity for haste, we have the
.advantage so far. if we only wait
until ear chosen Convention appoints
standard bearers.
'PUBLISHERS' COSVEXTIOS". On
the 27th Sane, 1871, the North Pacific
Coast Publishers'' Association was or
ganized at Salem, with A. L. Stinson
President, U. E Hicks Vice Presi
dent and Mart. V. Brown Secretary
and Treasurer. The Association ad
journed to meet on Thursday, Jone
27, 1872 next Thursday. As it is
only a few days until the time ar
rives, and as we. Jiave heard nothing
whatever in relation to the matter,
we presume all interest in the late of
the Association has died out. This is
jas it should be. As Treasurer of the
concern we had 5 of its : money in
onr stocking alter the adjournment of
the Association last year; and now,
after taking an inventory of our finan
ces, we think it would be highly cred
jtable to our official integrity if the
.Association would never meet and
-call upon us for an exhibit. We don't
.see low we could make an exhibit
that would ' aggrandize" us very
much. So if the other four members
of the "North Pacific Coast Publish
ers' Ass'n" are willing to let the corpo
ration go by default it w uld certainly
be in very bad . taste for us to raise
our feeble voice in opposition. I Pro
vided the Association shall not asso
ciate next Thursday we shall then
take it for granted that it is a "dead
issue" and shall appropriate the funds
of the concern to the promotion of an
object which we have long and fondly
cherished in our bosom and which
ave know will meej; VHIi the warm
approval of the quartette pf noble and
geaerons gentlemen who were asso
ciated with us in the defunct Associa
tion, to-wit: the founding and estab
jshment -of a .'home for indigent and
invalid newspaper publishers. . When
ever th 3 a hojne" is sufficiently ample
in its dimensions and. appoioutments
to accommodate a Urger number than
.tbe late Treasurer of the late North
Pacific Coast Publishers' Association
tie public shall be duly notified.

'TIELDnrO TO CLAOU."
The Oregoniati, in obedienca to the
behests of its railroad "boss," mak
an onslaught upon tho Radical plat
form, adopted at Philadelphia, becanee
its sixth resolution "opposes further
grants of lauds to railroads and mo
nopolists." That paper calls this res
olution "an obvious yielding to the
senseless clamor" that prevails in ihu
Hast upon the subject of laud grunts.
Now, as this resolution is iu exact
conformity to the opinion of President
Grant, as expressed in his nunual
message, of courso the Oregonian
writes the President down as the chief
f the "senseless clamorciV upon this
subjaet.
Of course tho Oregon railroad king
sees danger to his plundering schemes
iu this official expression of the Kadi
cal partv, and hence his" organs
throughout th State must raise their
Toioes in chorus -nd protest against
it. What avail will bo the expendi
ture by Holladay of teas of thousands
of dollars to carry the elections in
this Sate it his Kcpreseocattves and
Senators in Congress are to bo muz
zled in this matter of land grants, and
if their efforts to secure to their mas
ter vast tracts of the publics domain
are to be thus throttled iu their very
ineipiency ? Nothing bufrniu to onr
Tailroad king would follow such ac
tion on the part of Congress; and.
with his fall down would tumble the
foundation and support of the Radi
cal party of Oregon. Hence tho Qr
egonian frantic howl against its Na
tional Convention. for incorporating
such a ' senseless" resolution into its
platform.
We hardly think' the Orrgonlrn
need to tear its nether garment over
this matter. As the lladical party is
notorious for breaking its pnblio
promises and pledges to the people,
it is hardly probable that it will nt
this late day soil its record by living
up to the spirit of this land grant res
olution or any other portion of its
promises embodied iu tie Philadel
phia platform.
A Deeuved Compliment. Hon.
W. B. Laswell. of Canyon City, Grant
county, has just been elected for the
third time to the office of Prosecuting
Attorney for the Fifth Judicial Dis
trict. This year he had no opposi
tion, and received almost tho entire
vote of both parties ot the District.
He is a Democrat of the straightest
sect, but in the discharge of his offi
cial duties he knows no party and
panders to no prejudices. He is a
young man of more than ordinary
talent, and has already achieved for
himself ah enviable reputation in th
practice of his profession.
A Slight Difteeexce. At the
Portland city election last Monday
there were G35 less votes cast than at !
the State election two weeks previous.
The Jlerahl in Fpeaking of this dif
ference, sagely remarks: The differ
ence iu the result of the vote over
that ot two weeks ago is accounted
for on the ground that ' tho railroad
hands arc all concentrated in Douglas
county, and that the high price of
axle-grease would have made it a rath
er unprofitable investment to have
brought them here on vesterdav.
IvE-bect! The Eugene Journal
says Attorney General Williams "con
tributed largely to tho success of the
Republicans in . the late election."
We last week stated that Williams
contributed a large sum to carry the
election, and we are now pleased to
see our very trnthfnl republican cotem
porary of Eugene so promptly corrob
orate our statement.
. The Oregonian of last Thursday
publishes VoorheesV speech against
Greeley as a Grant campaign docu
ment. It occupies fourcolums iu that
paper. Democratic statesmen, like the
distinguished Indianian, Voorhees,
could not bo in worse business than
furnishing literature for Radical papers
and political pabulum for Black Re
publican stomachs.
; The Senatorial Contest. It is
now thought that our distinguished
fellow citizen, Dr. E. K. Geary, will
be Williams' most formidable oppo
nent in the coming Senatorial coutest.
As between two republicans we would
have no hesitancy in preferring the
election of Dr. Geary to that of the
demagogue and political prostitute,
Williams.
Ex-Senator Buckalew has been
nominated by the Pennsylvania De
mocracy as their candidate for Gov
ernor. The nomination is regarded
as a very strong one. The resolutions
place the Democracy on the Constitu
tation, Jefferson's Inaugural and Jack
son's FarewellAddress, but are silent
on the question of nominations by the
Baltimore Convention.
. A court at Hongkong lately con
demned a criminal to be killed by
wakefulness. , The culprit, a strong
and bealfcby man, was kept awake
constantly for fifteen days,' his suffer
ing for the last few hours being of the
most excruciating character. , At last
he dropped down, and the heart
ceased to beat. . Roasting alive is mer
cy compared with such torture.
.Tlssliarshest thing that has been
said ofMr. Greeley is the remark of a

EOUTIIEEU DEMOCEAOY.
Ltxx Co., Ok., June 15, 1872.
Editor Democrat :
I have just returned from nn ex
tended tour through tho Southern
StateB. I was iu Kentucky, Tennes
see, Alabama, Georgia and South
C u olina, and had the fullest opportu
nity of making observations ot tdVairs
there ami conversing with representa
tive gentlemen of those State upon
tho sublet of national political af
fairs. At first I was struck with as
tonishment nt tho unanimity with
which the Democracy of that section
endorse tho nomination of Greeley
and Brown ; but after making closer
observations and having fuller oppor
tunity of conversing with publio men
upon tho subject, I ceased to wonder
why the Democracy of the South wero
so unanimous in support of tho Chv
cinnnti nominees, and began to mar
vel why tho Democracy of tho North
did not look upon ttlfo subject with
moro favor. Tho pooplo of tho South
iiavo been so crushod by tho infamous
act of iho present administration-
hvo suffered such gross outrages
frou' Presidential tyranny have en
dured so many exactions and oppres
sions from trpct-bag governments
set over them b Federal interference
and difranHii9onunt for opinion's sako
that they arockmorous for a change
it tho federal adnvu.'stration and are
willing to throw asidtf all past dif
ferences upon question 4f political
policy and unite with t.'Y class of
voters who will assist in free them
from tho galling thralldom wi. 'ch an
arrogant and .Hellish Presidcntia.1 ty
rant and hU tools havo for yeas.'
forced upon them. Several mouths
ago, when tho revolt occurred in
tho Radical party and men ri'present
tiug the cream of its intellect and
character withdrew lrom its tightly
drawn party liu". tutd inaugurated the
movement which culminated in the
nomination of the Cincinnati ticket,
the people of the South saw in this
movement a hope,, for their escape
from tho opproMon of a military
President, and casing aside all for
mer prejudices which might militate
against the success of thin "new de
parture,' arc now a unit in support of
this Liberal movement. I need only
refer you to State after State that have
instructed their delegates to Baltimore
to support Greeley and Brown toMiow
you that I have not overdrawn the mmi
timent of the Southern Democracy in
respect to the Liberal lleform candi
dates. True, many of the .Southern people
admitted to me that Greeley was not
their first choice; but they say that
to them it is a matter of freedom or
slavery, life or death, to be rid uf
Grant administration; and they see
no other way of doing it than by sup
porting Greeley. They would be
glad to be informed of any other way
to defeat Grant, but none has yet
been made known and the prospect of
any other mode of succt-s grows
more and more obscure. They there
fore consider it important to remain
no longer lukewarm, but to organize
at once for the campaign with Greeley
as their standard-bearer. They ap
peal to the Democracy of the North
to imitate their example in the sup
port of the Liberal ticket, and assist
them in throwing off the yoke of op
preBion which has since the war made
them more abject slaves to military
tyranny tlian the down-trodden peo
ple of Poland.
Now, sir, I am a Democrat ; have
always becu true to the standard of
my party, and have stood fast by my
colors when contumely, insult, and
even injury was heaped npon many
thousands of ns for opinion's sake. I
challenge any man to show a better
or more consistent Democratic rec
ord than myself. Yet when tho peo
ple of my own native South my own
loved home of former days, before
the frosts of many winters had sil
vered my hair with tho hue of old
agi; are aufl'ering oppression and
tyranny such as no people have ever
before endcred under a civilized gov
ernment, I cannot hesitate as to my
duty. I shall cheerfully fall into line
and cast my lot and my voto with
those who are seeking to defeat the
military tyrant and inaugurate such, a
reform in our national affairs as will
guaranty the fullest rights and privil
eges to those who have for years suf
fered because of being deprived of
them. I look eagerly forward to the
Baltimore Convention, in the hope
that it will legalize the already
pledged support of a large class of
Democrats to tho Liberal movement.
With much respect, I am, sir,
, ; Yours very truly,
Daxiec Bkixgle.

tribute of manhood, was as lar above
Geo. II. Williams as the heavens 'are
above the earth. He was one of God's
noblest works on honest man. Wil

for himself lasting infamy by his con

honest man who sloeps iu his lonely
grave on the bankot tho Willamette,

shall come upon him, Geo. H. Wil
