CHOOSE YE THIS DAY. '
The time for discussion has passed
and the time for. action ia at hand.
Tho enemies and tha friends of free
government are again in hostile array
and will rood join in a contest in
which is involved interests more vi
tal than any ever before presented in
a Presidential canvass. The country,
though in apparent profound peace,
slumbers over a volcano. It is not
when armies are marshaled and pano
plied for trenchant, bloody war that
the liberties of a free people are in
danger, but when a cold apathy per
vades the masses and venal rulers
lore them on to vote away their birth
rights ; then, indeed are they hasten
ingdownthe declivity ofgovornmental
ruin. Liberty once aroused to dan
ger is nnconquerable, and is only lost
by the snpineness of its friends. The
great governments of antiquity ex
pired reclining in the lap of luxury
and ease and drifted away into an
archy and final chaos on the tide of
echoing plaudits, for venal rulers,
from a deluded people. Is the fate of
this great nation to be but a repetition
of th history of those that have gone
before? Have the people learned
nothing from the sad lessons found on
the record of the past, and attested by
xne decaying monuments which mark
the places where States and Empires
fell? Great Heaven ! We can bat ad
dres3 our countrymen in the laugua
of Milton :
"Awake, arise, or be forrcr fallen."
Loolc around and witness the social
and political corruption in the halls
f legislation; in tlie courts of justice;
in Cabinet and in Senate and still
higher in tha Presidential mansion
where sits an inebriate and corrupt
Chief Magistrate bartering the offices
of the government for gold. Then go
to the down-trodden, grave bestrewn
oouin ana view states in ruins; laws
perverted or wholly set at naught by
men appointed by the President and
sworn to administer them with a just
and impartial hand. View the people
of oar own race and blood" under
the dominion of if norant, degraded
and misled negroes. Hear their ap
peals to their brethren for aid. and
then, determine what is your duty in.
. ine present! ensis. .
The picture w& have presented is
not overdrawn. Frauds bribery and-
corrnption rule the hoar and' public
ponderers are boldly and defiantly
retained in positions of honor and
trust after having been convicted ofi
embezzlement and theft. ' .
The Democratic party' posses the
power to redeem the nation and puri
fy the channels of administralion.
Who can donbt that it will rise in iu
majesty and strepgth and stand as it
has ever stood, the bulwark of the
peoples' rights-and the friend of liber
ty and truth. The issues presented
in the present contest are too easily
Jy defined to afford" any voter a pre
text for staying away from, the polls.
There are but two sides to the ques
tion. Greeley with peace- anLgood
government, or Grant with one-third
of the Union in bondage and the ofii
ces in the hands of thieves and out
laws. T - -v .
oyeraocrais, liberals, patriot of
every name and creed, the choice is
before you. Can you falter? When
interests so dear to yourselves and to
posterity are at stake? Shall it be
raid that Democrats, actuated by
garty pride and prejudice failed to
stand by their country in" its hour of
peril? Every obligation held aacred
by freemen calls upefn Democrats to
cct-ia- the present crisis. Look at the
,ooui!;,6e justice outraged; liberty
banished; your kindred impoverished,
insulted, persecuted, down-trodden
and appealing. to yon for suecor. A
Tote. -withheld: from. Greeley is a prac
tical endorsement of the, wrongs -they.

ABOUT POLITICAL RECORDS.
Tho small number of Democrats
who decline to support Horace Gree
ley for President, assign as a reason
that his record is not Democratic.
They say that Greeley was an origi
nal Abolitionist, which is true, arid
that is the only important issue, of the
past, npon which he differed with the
most ultra Southern Democrat.
When tho JCuow-nothing party, of
which the Radical candidato for Vice
President was a member, organized
for the purpose of a crusado against
foreign citizens, Horace Greeley threw
the mighty influence of the Iribitne
with tho Democracy to crush out tho
dark-lantern organization. Again
when the clouds of civil war began to
darken tho national horizon in 1860-1,
how earnestly did Greeley plead for
conciliation and compromise. He en
dorsed the famous Crittenden Com
promise, and in .doing so, stood side
by side with John J. Crittenden and
John C. lireckeuridge, of Kentucky,
and most of the Democratic Senators
Never until hostilities were actually
announoed by tho firing upon Fort
Sumpter did Greeley fav or an aggres
sive movement of any kind. Until
the dogs of war were actually let
loose, Greeley's voice and pen were on
the side of mutual concession and
peace. After the war began, he, like
tho earnest, honest men on both sides,
stood by the record of his lite, and of
necessity was ioroed to abide the
arbitrament ol the sword. IJnt dur
ing that fearful ordeal, all remember
how he watched and prayed for the
return of peace. Who can forget his
earnest riiorts to enter into nego
tions leading to that end when Hol-
comb, Campbell and Saunders pre
sented themselves at Niagara as South
ern Peace Commissioners. When the
South was finally forced to yiold to
superior numbers aud resources, and
the institution of African slavery
ceased to be an issue. Greeley's first
demand was for universal amnesty.
And the people of the South are more
indebted to him than any other man,
living or dead, that a human holocaust
of their representative men was not
offered up on the altar of Iia.lical
vengence. Jefferson Davis was re
tained in a dungeon and nearly every
Kadical leader gloated over the uf
fering and humiliation of that great
but fullest man. Horace Greeley de
mauded his release and offered to be-
come his bailor in the sum of $luO,0Uv
, 5 i
and the ghouls who thirsted lir tho
blood of the vanquished chieftain were
forced .10 yield up their victim.
When Grant began sending his
thieves and carpet-baggers among the
Southern people to rob them of the
little that remained of their substance,
he denounced the outrage and when the
cries of that tyrant-cursed people be
gan to moan through the branches of
the Northern Pines on everj. Southern
breeze, begging for deliverance and
redress, Horace
Greeley baitencd i
t ... i
among them to speak words of cheer
and hope to the oppressed, and burl
defiance in the teeth of the oppressor,
and to-day ho stands tho foremost
champion in all the land of freedom
and reform. His enemies may hawk
at and deride him, but they cannot
rob him of the laurels he has won by
bis advocacy of peace and his defence
of the down-trodden South.
Democrats, here is the record of
Horace Greeley, so far as tho present
is concerned. Look at it; read it
ponder over it and determine for
yourselves whether your records wil
be tarnished by voting for 6uch a
man. Will they not rather be brrcht-
ened, burnished and rendered glori
ous by showing to the world that
Democrats can rise above prejudice,
above mere party traditions and mem
ories when patriotism demands- the
sacrifice.
Democrats, as yon value tho liber
ties of your country, the memory, of
your patriot fathers, the traditions' of
your sainted mothers -and all yon
hold dear on earth; go to the polis on
next Tuesday and vote for that gseat
souled man Horace Greeley nd
posterity wilt bless you
HOPE FOR THE PARBIERS.
liast week Jlessrs. Jos. Teal,' B..
Goldsmith and others filed articles of
incorporation for the establishment of
a Steamboat Company to ply a line of
boats on the Willamette river, . Be
tween Eugene City and Portland;
The capital stock is $100,000. Two
of their boats are expected to be
running in a conple of months, or as
soon as the Locks are completed.
This will bo cheering news to the
farmers and shippers of the Willam
ette Valley, and will infuse new life
into tho-n. Now let our people go to
wrk, organize and pledge each other
to- falroniz this opposition to the
grinding monopoly which has had
them thrott!d for the past two years
with a grip oi. iron. It ' will require
patronage to kep p,a successful line
of opposition boats,-, and our people
aid in their ppwer to-further the en
terprise.
. tftUHiBB OP ELECTIO.W
Some inquiry has been made re
garding the manner in which to pro
ceed to hold . elections in Precincts
where the judges appointed last Junek
have removed op fail to act. When the
honr for opening :the polls arrives, if
one or more of the judges are absent,
the voters present may.proceed to -fill
such vacancy,, or tcchoose a .full
board if jiecetary, by election. '
READ THE FIOVREH.
Domocrats and Liberals who may
have felt some dispondeney when
they heard tho result of the October
elections are invited to examine tho
following carefully prepared table
based npon tho most reliablo data at
hand. The States set down for Grco
ley ore morally certain to give him
thoir electoral votes, if a fair election
is had. If through fraud wo aro
cheated out of ono ol more of them,
we are still likely to win in somo of
tho States set down to Grant. Neith
er Ohio, California, Nevada, Illinois
nor Florida aro certain to givo Radi
cal majorities, and if wo can poll a
full Democratic vote in Oregon the
State is ours. Examine tho figures,
and on next Tuesday let the friends of
reform do their whole duty and a
glorious victory awaits us :

Much
..isi
figuring has been done on
the probable result of tho approaching
contest, but when tho battle is over
we venture the prediction tho above
will bo found not far from correct.
Many well informed Kastcrn papers
give a bettor showing, but we prefer
to base our calculation on certainties
and there is nothing better authentica
ted by past results than that tho States
set apart for Greeley in the estimate
have majorities favoring the cause of
reform.
RADICAL. NIMERITY.
It will be rembered that dtirinir all
the bitter strife of the political cam-
paign preceding the last Jone cloc
tion the stock in trade of the Radical
orators and journals was tho "stu
pendous swamp land swindlo" enact
ed by the the Democratic Legislature
ot two- years ago. From the forntn
and tho tripod it was denounced in
unoparing terms as a swindle and a
robbery, and Radical candidates for
mo legislature sworo with uplifted
bands that when the Assembly met
I , T 7 l"e V r l
tho swamp land act from ihn !.,.
books
Well: the Legislature of 1S72 con
vened, with a Radical majority, and!
what is the sequel ? An effort to re-!
peal this act was not only ?iot ttttemj
l, bnt almost every Radical Legisla
tor had an appropriation to ask for
out of tho swamp land fund to aid
him in some scheme or job in which
the stealings far eclipsed tho general
good to bo accomplished. Waon
: " " ' " were "cectl.
bridges over streams wlmsn nrl.1
ness would scorch a camel, railroads
where the foot of man had never
. j
trod and where he could nevpr ncm.
trate.were asked to bo built out of j
I ;
the swamp land fund by individuals
who had sworn to tneir constituency
j
that sooner than " permit that odions
swindle to remain longer a law their
dead bodies should bo taken home
from the capital in a hearse!"
As a further example of the insin
cerity of the Radical members of the
Legislature we publish on the first
page of this issue a joint Memorial
which was introduced by senator
Cornelius, of Washington county,
who, in the last campaign was one of
the most violent and unsparing de
nunciators of the swamp land law ;
and this Memorial was supported by
every Republican member of both
Houses.
The recent Legislature has fur
nished many other noted examples of
the insincerity and demogoguery of
tho Kadical politicians, but we deem
the foregoing illustration sufficient for
the purpose,
As hypocrites, tricksters, deceivers,
demagogues and traitors to all their
professions on tho hustings and be
fore the people the Radical members
of the recent Oregon Legislature are
without a parallel in political history.

To thr. Electors of the United States :'
' It becomes a duty to appeal to you
in view of appalling frauds pcrpo-
trated on the bnllot-box in tho
groat States ofPoinfiylvania, ;Ohio,
and Indiana, on tho 8th of October,
inBtant.
Let tho fa:ts bo aubmilled, that
judgment may bo pronounced.
It is not even denied that tho
partisans of Gen. Grant have boon
furnished with vast amounts of
money for electioneering purposes.
Tho taxation of official Btipondaries,
tho contributions of national banks
and of wealthy monopolies depen
dent on the Administration for favor,
and tho aid of heavy Government
contractors, havo furnished thin
wealth which has boon used to cor
rupt the pcoplo, or by fraud to de
feat their will.
A largo number of votes were
brought from Kentucky and Illinois
into Indiana, and their ballots ill
egally cast therein in favor of the
Kadical ticket. In Ohio tho work of
colonization was carried on from
Kentucky, but perhaps not bo exten
sively ns in tho -adjoining States.
In Pennsylvania so ntupeudoux were
the frauds that tho olection was a
farco. Colored men were brought
from Maryland, Washington, and
even from North Carolina, by
the thousands to voto in this State.
Tho railroads wcro crowded with
laborers from other States, whose
only duty was to cast a ballot for the
Krdical ticket. Repeaters by thou
sands from New York City thronged
tho streets of Philadelphia on tho
8th of October, and did tho work
assigned thera at the polls. These
men were pointed out by detectives !
to tho authorities of Pennsylvania,
ftn J their arrests requested but re
fused. Notorious Aew
York poli
ticians wero openly cheered in Phila
delphia by squads of theso New
York ruffians, on their way from
poll to poll to do their criminal
work. All this and much more is
susceptible of proof. Tho unpar
alleled registration in Philadelphia
carries its own evidence of intended
wrocg.
Prominent men in tho dominant
party openly boasted of these con
templated frauds in advance, aud
defied prevention. Emboldentd by
success, the crime that once was
worked in secrecy is now onenlv
perpetrated, and publicly heralded
as a stroke of genius by iU perpe
trators. Fellow-countcryinen, you are in-
sultirgly asked by those who have bo
successfully worked this iniquity,
"What are you going to do about it?"
Tho answer rpmninu willi T
not ueiuded with tue response thatj
........ I
both parties aro alike guilt v. This
is the weak evasion of the enemy
lct villainy such oa indicated be
I crushed, whoever may suffer. Let
no one for a moment believe that the
Liberal Republicans participated
in
these acts of violence against an
nouest election. Lvery suggestion
of such nature was condemned, and
so far as known such acts were in no
case attempted. The Liberal Re
publican party was organized to re
sist this very abuse, not to encour
age it.
Fellow-countrymen, the purity of
the ballot-box must be defended, or
dangers, the most momentous threat
en the Republic. The ballot is the
very corner-stone of our national
: .. i nrt ,. , - . ..
oiieicuce. w nen mat laws, ruin
envelops all. Unbounded wealth has
been the bane of nations before our
time, Has this disease by which
other States have fallen attacked us at
last in the most vital part, the sanc
tity of the ballot? Our people will
bow in submission to an honest elec
tion, but who shall declare tbat An
Executive chosen by dishonest means,
which annuls the popular will, may
command popular obedience? Cor
ruption-grows with its own success,
and as may be expected; let these
base deeds of the dominant party be
repeated in November, and who shall
say that the hour may not be fast
approaehing when some energetic
spirit shall thunder in the willing ear
of an outraged nation, that physical
resistance to Such infamy is obe
dience to God.
Fellow-countrymen, the remedy is
who in your own hands. Rebuke those-
in open day so shamelessly brin
this disgrace upon us. Our national
security demands your action. The
vote is yet in your hands," and the
insult to these three great Common
wealths may be avenged. ' In spite
of the frauds perpetrated, we have
carried Indiana, reduced the vote
greatly in Ohio, and lost Pennsyl
vania only by startling corruption.
The ' future is full of nromise.
Georgia priclaims in her great ma
jority that the suffering Southern
States, in their desire for equal rights
before the law, will give 12S electoral
votes to Horace Greeley. An honest,
Christian sympathy in the North? will
dd to this more than enough' votes
td. make his election sure. There is
every canse for encourogement, and
eveky reason to hope for success
. Lit there be no laggard now. - He
is a tvaitor who faUers as the combat
opens. Forward along : the entire
line, and by an . overwhelming vic-
for National Reconciliation and Re
form, but at the same time let the
lesson be effective and lasting, that
money cannot purchase tho oflico of

The Great 6taf of New York is
certain to go for Greeley.
All that is necessary now is to
bring out the Democratic vote.
See that no Democrat fails to ccme
up to the polls on election day.
Tho Indianapolis Sentinel aajs
Indiana will give Greeley 20.0001 ma
jority. One hundred and twenty eight
electoral votes from the Bouth will
be cast solid for Greeley.
Horatio Seymour and Geo. H. Pen
dleton are to make the last grand
charge in powerful rallying speeches
for Greeley and Reform.
The only hope of success the
Grantites have is in deceiving Demo
crats and inducing them to vote for
O'Conor, the sold-out candidate.
An Ullionis Radical, writing to
John A. Logan, declares Illinois
lost to the Administration, . and
thanks God it never votes in October.
There is no longer any doubt as to
the result of tho Lousiana election
Great bodies of freedmen are joining
the Greeley f usiontsts in all parts of
the Sfate. "
In Oregon -Democrats were- de
spondent at the result of tha October
election. In St. Louis Mo. one hun
dred guns were fired in honer of the
result by Democrats.
By its advocacy of Liberalism and
its support by Liberals, the Chicago
inoune lias made" money enough
since the great conflagration to pay
lor- its new printing " palace. So
much for the nnmber of Illinois
Greeleyites.
The South is rising as one. man for
Greeley. No man has ever lived
who is rnore popular in the south to
day thatt Horace Greeley. This
ought" to 'have some influence with
Northern. Democrats; for- if the
South larvos Honest Old White Hat,
what has he done' to Northern Dem
ocrats, that they should talk about
eating "cr6w?"
The carelessness" of Democrats in
Ohio and Indiana in October, which
jeopardize ' those ' states; has been
worth everything to ' the Liberal
cause. It wiifatf like Bull Bun did
on the NorthVV-There is now a rally

and valuabj work will now be done,

VET6 OP THE BILt) TO REPEAL TtlE
L,iriiANT ACT.
Following ia the Governor's veto
message to the bill passed by the
recent Legislature to repeal the Act
to Protect Litigants:
The act of October 24th, 1870,
provides that tho proprietor of a
newspaper designated as the official
paper of any county, shall file
with tho County Clerk of saM
County n written stipulation ac
cepting tho conditions of the Act,
together with an approved bond for
the faithful performance of the legal
and judicial advertising for said
county, and when such action on the
part of a proprieter of a designated
newspaper has taken place, "the
Governor shall without delay, by
proclamation, appoint and confirm
said newspaper as the medium throu
gh which all jndieial and legal adver
tisements for aid county shall be
published for the term for which he
may have hem eltx-fed."
If this proceeding amounts to a
franchise vested for the period
named as has been held by high
judicial authority in other States,
under like acts or it id in the nature
of a contract, and rights have vest
ed under that contract, a repeal of
the law conld not devest those rights,
nor annihilate or impair the privi
leges so acquired. Conceiving that
in any event the repeal of said act of
October 24th, 1870, before the
period expressed for its termination,
will throw the litigation of the State
into confusion and lend to create a
multiplication of collateral tuits and
proceedings to determine the right
of publishers and litigants, expensive
and disastrous to all parties connect
ed therewith. I have concluded to
witbold my signature from hail bill."

THE CANDIDATE OP RICH HEX.
As the candidate of the rich men,
Ulysses S. Grant is a success. He
has never entered a poo: man's houe,
or allowed his children to since he
became rich himself All his ansocia
tions and iriendxhips are with the rich.
Like all men who have wealth thrust
suddenly upon them, he attaches to it
a false importance, and the unaccus
tomed luxuries of horses and dogs fill
him with a Vulgar delight. But more
than this, he has been initiated into
the value cf money a a political pow
er; he has seen the highest honors in
the gift of the people purchased as
deliberately as nun purclia.se cattle;
he has witnessed the a!e of State
Legislatures, and Congress itself
bought wholesale by the bribes of the
Criedit Mobilier. The Icftson so easi
ly learned is boldly practiced. The
President depends for his continuance
in onico npon money alone in every
election district in the United States.
It was unlimited expenditure of
money in .orth Carolina, distributed
under the pretence that it wa for the
use ot the Judieiary, that produced
the montroi:s frauds and bogus
counting there. It was money cor
ruptly spent in Maine that saved his
majority in that safe quarter" from be
ing cut down to alarmingly low fig
ures. It is money that he is now
squandering in Pennsylvania upon
which he relies for knocking the
Greeley progress is the head in the
dreaded election of October. Never
before was such an expensive cam
paign known in the United States.
Whence comes the thoer of wealth?
From the taxation of" every person
employed by the Government, no
matter how humble his position and
how mall his salary. From the
Treasury of the United States, which
I IRak.eB u,c loan upon the security that
i it in ensure ursni ? re-eiection; and
from the vrst speculative, gambling
rinjjs ol the rich men, who invest m
Grant stock with the expectation that
success will return them dividends
proportionate to the risk. JSjrirU of
the Times.
