THE KLECTIOXS.
The returns from the elections held
in Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana
ehdw'a Democratic gain. . Pennsyl
vania and Ohio have probably gone
Republican by small majorities. In
diana is doubtful. -
WELL. STATED.
A late number of the "Washington
Standard very tersely and truly stales
the case when it says the oft-quoted
expression, "Whom the gods would
destroy they first make mad," finds
illustration in the action of the
'Straight-out" party movement in the
East. -' Under date of Sept. 25th we
observo a long address to the Democ
racy of the United States, emanating
from the managers of the Louisville
fizzle. It opposes the Baltimore plat
form as not Democratic, and declares
that the watchword is not beat Grant
but to beat Greeley. It affirms that
" if Grant is elected the responsibility
will rest upon the Baltimore Conven
tion, which refused the people a Dem
ocratic candidate or a platform."
llere we see the motive laid bare.-
It could not be longer concealed, and
a virtue is made of necessity in, the
avowal. Grant is to be benefitted and
the movement is wholly and unqualifi
cdly in hfs interest. With the assurance
of their master spirit who once don
ned the robes of righteousness for a
similar purpose of evil, they profess
to be better partisans than the great
leaders and powerful masses of the
party throughout the country, while
all their efforts are directed to a sin
gle purpose, to betray their former
political associates into the power of
their most bitter opponents.
The Baltimore Convention, com
posed of delegates from every State
in the Union, elected by the voice of
the people under the usages and forms
sanctioned by the experience of time
and of all parties, is accused of betray
ing the popular will, when it is well
known that the State Conventions,
(we belieTe without a single excep
tion,) instructed their delegates to
vote for the platform and nominees of
the Liberal reform Convention Tield
at Cincinnati. It is not disputed that
these State Conventions were rejrular-
called and fairly held, nor was there a
murmur of complaint, nor a doubt ex
pressed as to the propriety of such a
course, until the National Convention
bad met, and by an unanimity unpar-
alled in the history of party politics
given expression to the instructions of
their constituents. The assertion
made in the address is, therefore, void
of truth, possesses no foundation in
fact, and is a direct assault, not mere
ly upon the Convention, but the peo
pie, who have risen in their might to
sustain it. ' "
SHiXTS BLACK KTT-KX.UX. r
"We have a forcible illustration of
the spirit in which the supporters of
Grant and Grantism are conducting
this campaign in the behavior of the
negro Grantites toward any of their
race who dare to- advocate the elec
tion of Horace Greeley, whose servi
ces in the cause of human freedom in
the days when Grant was an upholder
of negro slavery they appear to have
completely lorgotteD. A black Gree
ley speaker named Gross, who is now
we-rking for the success of the Liberal
ticket in Ohio, has been exposed to
threats and violence from the time be
began bis speeches in. that State. In
Cincinnati he was threatened with as
sassination, and was obliged to call on
the authorities for protection. In
Springfield he was advertised to speak
on the 3d alt.,, and on his arrival was
met by a crowd of nearoes who
threatened to mob him if he should
make a Greeley speech in that city.
He was as suited while going to a car
riage, and on- hi , way to- the City
Hall, although under the- protection-
of the police, was followed by a crowd
of about three hundred black and
white Grantites, yelling, "Hang him
"Shoot- him!" Kill the d d traitor
and the like. At the close of the
meeting this mob made at rush for
Gross, withf the avowed determination
to murder .him,.and it was only with
great difficulty that' the police suc
ceeded, in saving" his life.. Suppose
this had. occurred in Alabama,, and
Gross had been a Grant instead of a
Greeley speaker,' Irf that .case how
the organs would have howled about
the Ku-Klux and the' unrepentant
gpirit of the rebels lS. F. ikomineL

PXDLETOif, Oi, bet 5, 1672
Editor Democrat ?
The canvass was openod io Eastern
Oregon at this placo On the 2nd inst.
As per appointment published in the
valley papers Hon. Geo. It. Helm ad
dressed the citizens of this vicinity
upon the political issues of the day,
and, judging from the effect of his
speech at this place, much good will
bo accomplished by his speeches and
happy results may be looked for on
the day of election. I noticed in the
audience several old straight-out Dem
ocrats who camo in scoffing at the
idea of votiug for Horace Greeley
who were, before the close of the
speech, cheering as heartily as his
most zealous supporters. All present
were much pleased with the speech;
Republicans admitting that the sub
ject was well and fairly handled.
Straight-out Democrats say that tho
subject was presented to thera in a
different light from what they had
once heard it, and regular Democrats
were indeed jubilant. , The Grant
Electors failed to put in an appearance
and Mr. Helm will have to make the
canvass alone. They have I suppose
adopted the passive policy in refer
ence to the campaign, thinking that by
so doing Democrats will not come
out on election day, but let them de
lude themselves in this way if they
will November will tell whether
they have not failed in their calcula
tions. From here Mr. Helm went to Wes
ton, where I am informed he had a
very large audienco for this country,
and was iu one of his happiest moods,
throwing hot shot into the radical
camp, and causing them to writhe un
der his scorching hits at Grant's ve
nal administration, while shouts of
applause from Democrats and Liber
als made the very welkin ring. Mr.
neim seems to have anticipated the
wants of the situation in this coun
try and I predict as the result of his
canvass an increased Democratic ma
jority from Eastern Oregon. The
opposition to Greeley among Demo
crats is gradually giving away, "while
Republicans are becoming lcsszealous
for Grant and ere the ides of Novem
ber will have almost entirely died out.
Roll on the ball let the canvass bo
come hot and all will be well. T.
GRANT'S INDIAN FOLIC T.
. One of the results of Grant's Indian
policy may be seen in the following,
which we take from the Arizona Mi
ner, of .Sept. 21st:
The horrors of military prisons lave
been descanted upon until mention of
Libby, Anderson vil'e, Camps Doug
las and Chase have unstrung the
nerves of tender hearted people and
fired the hearts of men of iron nerve,
yet, since the days of sectional cruel
ty, scenes have been enacted in the
Indian country. parallels to which can
not be found in the history of the late
war between the sections, one of
which was tho horrid scenes enacted
at Fort Sill, in the Indian Territory,
where, at a council between Quaker
agents and Kiowa Indians, several
white females, captives of the savages,
were" brought into that post, lashed
upon the backs of Indian ponies, with
strips of raw-hide, which strips were
drawn bo tightly around the naked
bodies and limbs of the poor women
as to cut into their flesh, and this tor
ture lasted nearly all of one day, in
the open air, under a fierce sun, in the
presence of numerous soldiers and
several officers, most of whom boiled
over with rage at being compelled to
witness such a scene. v
Finally, sufficient money to ransom
the poor, suffering white ladies was
raise Jf and the Indians, the Quaker
agent and the commanding officer per
mitted the poor creatures to be tir.
bound.
Bravo men, wo are told, were there,,
but the fear of being charged with
mutiny kept them from performing
the acts which no humane man should
have shrunk from, na' matter what
punishment might have followed-
In our own unfortunate Territry,.
men, women and children have been
roasted to death; impaled npon thor
ny plants and trees, but the Fort Sill
affair is one of the most horrid wo
have ever described.

CAPITA. COniJESPONDEXCS.
, Salem, Oct.. 9, 1872.
After a threo ' day's recess to per.
mit tho members to rest in the bosom
of their families and procure a change
of linen, tho Legislature yesterday ve
stimed "biz"' with a buzzing velocity
which promises fruitful results.
Three bills passod tho Senato yes
terday, viz: A bill t authorizing tho
Governor to appoint Gen. K. L. Ap
plegate Commissioner of Immigration
for Oregon. This bill instructs tho
Commissioner to provide himself with
facts and statistics in regard to tho
many distinguishing inducements for
settlement in our State, and to travel
in tho Eastern States and Kuropo, cir
culating documents and delivering
lectures. Gen. Applegato is one of
tho oldest settlors of Oregon, and,
with his knowledge ot tho country
and well-established' ability as a pub
lic lecturer, is certainly eminently
qualified for the position. Great
good to our Stato must certainly re
sult from this measure, provided it
shall pasRs successfully through tho
Legislative hopper. Another bill
which passed the Senato yesterday is
ono introduced by Senator Stratum, of
Benton, to change tho time of tho
Legislature to the first Monday in
December. This is a measuro which
in my humbler judgment should bo
coiuo a law. Under tho present ar
rangement tho Stato Fair occupies at
least a week of the session, tho Su
premo Court a great portion of the
attention of the legal munis of the
Legislature, and thus the valuable
timo of the session is flittered away
without any special good being ac
complished for tho people or the
State. There may bo objections to
the proposed change of time, but cer
tainly tho rood to result from the
change will overbalance thoso objee
tions.
Among the few commendable pub
lie measures which are pending before
this body wo observe a bill, intro
duced by Senator Strahan, to exempt
homesteads from enforced sale for
debt. Oregon has long felt tho need
of a judicious homestead law, and it
is earnestly hoped that this Legisla
ture will have sufficient wisdom to
pass such a measure. Mr. Strahan's
proposed bill appears to fill the meas
ure of this want to the fullest degrce;
and its failure to pass will bo a public
calamity.
An attempt is being made by the
Republicans to oust Senator Strahan
from his seat, and fears arc felt of tho
successful accomplishment of their
revolutionary designs. If Strahan
should be unseated the Dt-mocratic
lines in tho Senate would be broken
and the Radical majority would un
doubtedly kick out Monroe, of Was
co, ami Myers, of Clackamas, and ad
mit the- Radical candidates who wcro
defeated Ly the people at the polls.
A bill has passed both houses de
signed to protect property of married
women against the debts and liabili
ties ot their husbands. Tho outrage-
ous features of this bill will be readily
understood when it is discovered that
by its provisions the wife is not com
pelled to take in washing to secure
money for the payment ot her bus
i band's whisky bills! First thins
j you know some unfeeling wretch will
introduce a bill requiring we poor un
protected men to support oar families
and pay our own debts besides !
Mrs. Duniway's suffrage bill was
revived yesterday in the House and
that lady was by courtesy given an
opportunity to harrangnc tho members
upon the merits of the bill. She ex
coriated Caplea and two or three
other Radical members for their op
position to her pet measure, and threat
ened to cive them "more toncne" if
they didn't speedily embrace her
views on the suffrage question. The
bill Mas referred to a special com
mittee, and it now looks liko Mrs. D.
would carry her " permit." It is
thought that she has corralled a ma
jority of both houses and is certain to
secure the passage of her bill.
. Salem, Oct. 10.
The bill to appropriate $100,000
for tho erection ot a State capital
passed the Senate yesterday and now
oniz awaits the Governor's signature
to become a law. Salemites are ex
ceedingly jubilant at this consuma
tion, as- it settles the location of tho
capital at their fcerg. Well, we are
not sure, but it is dpgood thing no
capital city of a State in the Uniof
ever amounted to any great shakes.
The bill to repeal the Portlaud Po
lice law which was enacted two years
ago will doubtless pass the Senate to
day and become a law.
A personal rencontre occured on
the street in this city last ngiht, and
excited considerable interest. From
what I can learn it appears that Eu
gene Semple, State Printer, and J. H.
Lappeus, Chief of Portland Police,,
met on tho corucr near the Cheme
keta House, angry words followed,,
when, Lappeus, stru'ek Scorpio" with
his cane. Tho latter drew a pistol'
but being in too close quarters to
shoot he used it as a club and knock
ed Lappeus down ,with it. At this
juctur&r Hon. J. D. Fay, President of
the Senate, rushed into the arena and
began striking Semple over tho head
with his cane. Semple gave Fay a
blow which sent him to grass, and be
fore hostilities could be resumed par
ties stepped forward and separated
tko belligerents, Many rumors are
afloat as to the cause of tbis-djagrace-fulaffxyr,
but as I can givp-Ho.aotbea-
tie Information upon tho subject I
shall not attempt to repeat tho idlo
rumors horoi It is feared that tho
difficulty is not yet ended, as much
bad blood bus been engendered
among thd friends of both parties.
Mr; Sefhplo has tho unqualified sym
pathy of all disinterested parlies, as
tho attack upon him is looked upon
as having been unfair and unjustifia
ble. Tho Governor's reception last night
was a brilliant affair and passed off
with tho most flattering eclat. His
Excellency and his amiable and ac
complished wifo entertained their
multitude ot guests with rarest taste
and elegance, winning the most ap
preciable plaudits of all. It is seldom
that such an event passes off with such
rare enjoyment and felicity to all con
cerned as this one.
As only a little moro than a week
yet remains of tho session, tho legis
lative sausage mill is grinding with
terrific rapidity. Many of tho pend
ing bills will never bo reached, but
doubtlcs a sufficient number will puss
to cause tho people, to regret that this
session was ever held. M. V. B.
UVOVK NOTE OC THE CAMPAIGN.

Greeley.

It is estimated that the Grunt vic

from what was colloctcd in tho State.
In Monroe county, Wis., tho Re
publican county officers, including
County Judge Sleobo. haov gone over
to Greeley.

loss over 7,000.
Tho voto of Maine has increased
20,000 Binco the last election by the

Tho Legislature of West Yirginita,
to meet on Thursday, Nov. 21, will
contain 3 Republicans out of 21 iu
the Senate, and 17 Republicans out

Chief Justice Chase writes to a
friend in Cleveland: "I make no se
cret of my conviction that the hiLt-i.t
interests of country require the elec
tion of Mr. Greeley, or of my inten
tion to voto for him."
Tho Gloversvillo (N. Y.) Standard,
the first, and for many years tho only
Republican paper in Fulton county,
has come out for Greeley and Brown,
having "waited in vain for nearly
four years for tho fulfillment vt tho
people's prayer for peace."
A Portland chap, who was pur
chased at a low figure by Bon Holi
day last spring, excuses himself by
saying tho Democratic party needed
purifying. On these grounds bis
withdrawal from the party is certain
ly excusable. It breaths freer since
he left.
We are informed that petitions are
already being circulated among the
Grant members of 'bo Legislature
asking the removal of Messrs, Wake
field, Hinman and Bowlby from
their respetive offices, because of their
opposition to tho will of Holladay in
tho Senatorial fight.
A Radical of Missouri assured a
colored voter of Center, recently, that
the election of Grant to the Presiden
cy was a foregone conclusion.
"Why," said he, "three States Che
cawgo, Canady, and ono of tho Caro
lyny's have already gone for him."
That settles the question.
On the train of tho Caiholic excur
sionists to Kansas City, last Sunday,
a vote was taken on the Presidential
question, which resulted as follows:
For O'Conor, 3; for Grant, 47; for
Greeley, COG. Thus it will be seen
that the policy pursued by some of
Administration papers, in persecut
ing and caricaturing the Catholic
Church is beginning to bear fruit.
B. F. Dowell says A. C. Gibbs
was defeated for tho U. S. Senate in

He was defeated through the treach

Gen. B. F. Butler lately rnado a
speech to the citizens of Rocklaud,
Maine, during the course ot which,
wc learn by telegraph, remarks the
Baltimore O'ttzcttr, that, for some un
explained reason, "several ladies
fainted." What occasioned this sud
den swooning of tho female portion
of his audience is a profound mys
tery. It is well known that General
Butler is not a handsome man, and
never was, but we can scarcely sup
poitu that merely gazing upon his fea
ture was hufficicut to produce the
feminine collapse. There must have
been a deeper cause than this. Could
it have been that a painful vision of
Butler at Ndw Orleans, calling upon
his brutal soldiers to treat the south
ern matron '-like a woman of the town,
plying her vocation," came over the
iqiinsiers of Rocklaud, and diMolved
even their hearts to pity ? Butler's
oratory is not usually of the melting
j kind, r.nu wc arc inclined to think
.'that any f..ii.ting that might result
from his personal presence at a dern

j bo attributed to unconquerable d':

Gi-:s. Li:v." Wallacb has written a
long letter affirming that Gen. Grant
was not intoxicated at Fort DoneUon
and Shiloh. The point may as well
be yielded now, as Gen. Wallace is
an expert in this matter, and what he
does not know about being tight is
not worth the knowing. It was Gen.
II a! lock who complained of Gen.
Grant's disobedience of orders and
disregard of authority, in going off to
Nashvi'le instead of minding his men.
Gen. Wallace would have us suppose
that GenGrant weut to Nashville to
sign tho pledge ! A clergymen of our
acquaintance rut this whole matter
in the finest way. Ho said I'thcro is
something peculiar in tho appearance
of Gen. Grant at times, so that those
who do not know him well might eas
ily suppose he was under the influence
of liquor; and sometimes his appear
ance is calculated to deceive even his
best friends." A very unfortunate
peculiarity certainly. Tho General
has our sympathies. I'iltoris Golden
THE KEELING IN THE INTERIOR.
The S. F. Examiner says: Dr. J.
Campbell Shorb has just returned
from a tour through the counties of
Sonoma, Lake, and Mendocino,
where ho has been doing effective
work for the Reform ticket. The
Doctor was every where throughout
those counties enthusiastically re
ceived, and spoke to large audiences.
So great was the strain upon his
physical powers that ' he has been
compelled to halt for a while in his
triumphal oratorical career, until his
voice reeovers its accustomed strength.
Dr. Shorb says that the enthusiasm
of the Democracy is unbounded in
favor' of Greeley and Brown, and
they are not a whit less cordial in
their support of the ticket than the
Liberal Republicans, the number of
whom he was surprised to find so
great, especially in the vicinity of
Ukiah, Mendocino county, where
both- Democrats and Liberals are
filled with ardor in the Reform cause.
Ve rejoice that we have such a vig
orous campaigner as tho Doctor. If
all-our local ' leaders were, made of
his metal, and were like him full of
youthful energy,; enthusiasm, cour
age, and physical as well as intellect
ual activity, there would be such a
canvass in California this Fall as
never was before in our history.'
' The'' solid vote' of the Democrats of
New Jersey, from, the most reliable
accounts,:is sure for Greeley.- ;-;
