A- VOPL'LAK TlHtllPlt,
fi6 efcctfoti u-hicli has just passed
ovei1, i one of tho most remarkable
litiil struggles ever known.- With
n vote of more than forty per cent, be
low that polled at any general eleo
tion ol the last six years'it has result'
ed in the largest majority on record
in favor of the people "against cor)o-
,' rations. Au independent journal,
published in one of the coast counties,
; said, several weeks ago, that '.' the peo
ple are always honest, generally right
and never unpopular," and Iho late.
, eloction has abundantly proven the
forco of the assertion. It was unlike
the great popular unprising of Call
; fornia in September: becauso Call
fornia resorted to ' an independent
movement, knowing that the corpora
' tions endeavored to move within party
linos. In Oregon, the victory was on
a strictly Democratic basis tho right
;. of tho people to govern the people. "
more withering rebuke was never
Lefore heaped upon a bloated mush-
room-aristocrat and his hireling satol
jv Iitcs; a more vehement outburst of
popular indignatiou never beforo
! crushed down a heartless demagogue
j who cared not how soon his party was
, burjed in the ruins his own hands
had dragged down npon them. : Hol-
laday and Mitchell are entombed in a
common grave by the honest yeo
i manry of Oregon. ' All that most on
... i . .
l . "uuicd piny nu uggies, was sunic in
the wretched ambition to foroo down
the throats of honest Republican
voters men who were sincere in their
convictions and did not espouse Radi
calism in t.llrt Tinrta n Jnnrln
v mtiuui ai, ell-
dorsement of a heartless bigamist.
llie Jiepublican convention professed
to deal with the "Bluff Harry" of
uregon, merely as an Oregon man,
sinking his antecedents in the Eastern
. States; so the voters of Oregon took
them at their word and reproved the
Convention that aBked them to en
dorse the brevet Mormon. This
proves that no matter how corrupt
rtiay be tho leaders of tho Republican
parly, the masses of that party havo
yet somo honesty. They refused to
inarch in a procession headed by a
. renegado secessionist, harnessed to a
Kadical plunder-cart. They refused
to endorse bigamy, seduotion and em
bezzlemont, believing that to do it
was equivalent to giving their money
to the blacklegs, their daughters to
soaucers, their wives to the brothel
A-copers ana their nouls to tho dovil.
Another remarkable feature of the
election was this: Corporations al
ways Jiave their own creatures, and
tneir Hireling newspapers- ring the
charges on "discarding old partv
uckb ana selecting " men fresh from
tho people." They put up just such a
wan as this to, bear tho standard of
tho railroad oohorts, and ho was beat
en into, if possible, worse obscurity
than that whenco he emerged at ihoir
dictation. Iu spito of tho corpora-
lion organs whining about "profes
sional politicians," the peoplo of Ore
gon have given- their fargest recorded
majority to a "professional politician,'!
iti tho most expansive sense of the
term. By this wa mean not an ob
scure wire-puller vlio " controls half
the votes of some ward whoi o grog
vercomcs prejudioos; not a smooth,
bland manipulator of dark-lnfttorn cau
oubsos in tho upper stories of disroput
able groceries; but a man who has
made the science ot popular govern
ment the study of a life-timo and- who'
thoroughly knows the Wants of his
constituents, and how to, realize their
expectaiona. In fact, General JsTosinilb
is not so much a lawyer as a law
maker ; and the very highest authori
ties in tho laud such men as J rum
bull, Fossonden, and ,Chiof .Justice
Chase have paid cheerful tribute to
his cardinal ability as a'legislator. ' "
If Mr. Ilolladay and Senator Miloh
cll are not of that class of nien vjio
"forget nothing through magnanimi
ty and learn nothing by oxporioiioo,''
they will meditate well upon 'tl)e
wholesome lesson dealt out to them b'y
tho plain, unpretentious men of Ore.,
got). The, latter is not so oulpable,
because he feared expulsion Irom tho
Senate, and an -emlorisomoiit by the
peoplo (which ho failed to Receive)
was his only hope of sal'Jionl The
former deserves no- pity. Had lie
contented himself with developing tho
resources of Oregon with his rail
roads, ho could have had almost any;
kind of favorable legislation from
i-ilhor political party. As he has Been
fit to mako his house an asylum for all
tho political mendicants of tho Radical
party; his railroad-building a soliemo
of colonising eleotions and defeating
the popular will; and his wealth (?) a
source of social corruption, we ques
tion if the sober and sensible portion
of tho oommunity regret his lminilia
lion. To sunt up tho situation; 'tho
people are masters of tho fluid and the
corporations thoroughly rebuked tor
their oppressive insolcnoo. A victory
tmbonght by corruption and unstained
by the taint of bloodshed, it affords a
stronger evidence than ever of the
power of men who know tho obliga
tions of citizenship and falter not in
their just performance thereof.
THE ASJTOtllA EXCURSION.
Tho farmers' excursion from 'Al
bany to Astoria, last week, was one of
(he most pleasant and satisfactory af
fairs of he kind which has over oo
ourred in Oregon. True,' the party
was not so numerous as was expected,
but it comprised a goodly, number of
our most prominent and extensive ag
riculturists and their wives, and' was
just expansive enough to be comfort
able and sociable. These are they :
C. . P. .Burkhart and wife, Jason
Wheeler and wife, S. Montgomery
and wife, Milton Houston and wife,
Albert Bales and wife, Martin Lnpor
and wife, Lewis Luper and wile, Geo.
Simpson, Blevins Bros., Oliver Bush
nel,, Newton Houston, George W.
Cline, W. B. Westlake, Thoi. Mon
teith and son, Stephen Powell, and
the editor of the Democrat.
Starting from this city, by special
train, on Tuesday morning, and re
maining oyer Tuesday night at Port
land, we arrived at Astoria, by the aid
of tho staunch steamer "Annie Stew
art," on Wednesday evening, whore
the citizens received us with wild
cheers and other manifestations, of
hilarious, enthusiasm. Here is what
the Astorian says about our conduct
while there:

On Thursday evening a largo gath

were made by Col. Taylor, W. D.

A. S. Mercer, Jason Wheeler, C, P.
Burkhart, and- several others, upon
the subject of tonnage and tho im
portance of securing dirtict transporta
tion from Oregon to the great mar
kots of tho world. Friday wbb spent
in visiting the distinguishing points of
interest about the city, in "yanking"
tom-cods" from their watery beds
and in chasing clams, oysters, etc,
about tljo streets. The writer hereof
caught up with a largo herd of clams
at the rosidonoe of Mr. J. C. Coo, and
now tho places that formerly know
thoso clams know them no more ior-over-ahl
Friday Might a grand ball was given
in honor of tho excursionists, at Spir
itual Hull, - at which tho chivalry of
Astoria vied with each other in
rondariugspooial attention aud oourte

At a meeting of tho excursionists,
held at the rooms of tho Astoria Far
mers' Company, on Friday, tho fol
lowing preamble and resolutions wore
presented by M. V. Brown and unani
mously adopted :

A PEftSONAt MATTER.
It WiiV be observed that the Ore-
gonian and Statesman, the leading
Republican papers of the. State, have
no word of censure to cast upon the
editor of this paper for his part in the
Forest Grove affair. : The JiuUetin is
alone in its vindictive attack upon us.
It may appear like egotism npoa our
part to parade the following article
from the Evening News belore our
readers, but as it sets forth some mat
ters in a proper light we herewith re
produce it:
The llulletln' finally Justifies Mr. Thompson
in caning Myers ; but at the same time, as if
to compensate Itself for the correction that it
Is compelled to make In Thompson's case, it
attacks Mr. M. V. llrown with Increased and
characteristic niftlgnancy. To show the ridicu
lous extremo to which personal hatred of Mr.
llrowft carries tho Jiullctin editor, It is only
necessary to state thatthc paper, alter virtually
Justifying Thompson In performing; the act,
and mildly censuring Blodsoe and Trotter, who
went unsolicited by Mr, Thompson or Drown
and without tholr knowledge "lo see tho fun,"
by saylnji that they acted "outrageously Im
proper," it proceeds to borate Mr. iirown, who
went at Thompson's urgent solicitation, with
tho most piireniiled vlndictlveness. Of course
there Is an explanation of all this. The Bulletin
editor and Mr. Hrown are personal enemies.
There were hostilities between them through
their respective papers In times past, In which
the former found that ho hart caught a tartar.
Matters wentfarthcr: the llulletlnehargetl Mr.
Brown, with gross misconduct In his ollice as
Htate Printing Kxpert. Jn the KeptibJIcan
Legislature which followed, an investigation
was Instituted. Mr. llrown passed through the
hands of his enemies unscathed triumphant.
Tho discomfited Bulletin editor blS been
smitten with maniacal fury toward his victori
ous opponent ever since.
It, Is not necessary for tfs to state that no man
stands higher In tho. esteem of his feliow
cltlzens than Mr. Brown, He is a man and a
irentleuTan in every Instinct of his nature
;enerous in ms intercourse Willi nis leiiows
iri
honorable and fearless In thi discharge of his
duty. The rage of tho
loreacu mm.
"Bulletin" Is Impotent
"An Iowa Unioh Man," publishes
a card iu the ' Bulletin in which he
makes some allusions to the political
record of the editor ot this paper
during tho lato war. The card is da
ted at Ilillsboro, in this State. The
writer undertakes to make 'specific
charges and even goes so far as to
quote tho exact language which ho
protends was used by us somo twelve
years ago (when we were about oight
oeu years old). Really, it is flattering
to us to know that we aro of so much
consequence to any one that he should
take pains to remember language used
by us when a boy: Such an incident
is certainly calculated to feed ono's
vanity if tho incident wero foundod
on facts ; but iu this instance. there is
no such foundation, aud even tho Jiul
lctin wns so ashamed of the lie which
it hao eyidently concocted, that it
placed it In an obscure corner oh the
fourth page, among the commercial
news and advertisements.
; A person can't bo expeoted to reply to
all tho lies which aro daily cooked up
in that JiuUetin establishment, but this
is such a glaring fraud upon truth that
wo take occasion to allude to it. Of
ootirso the Jiullctin penned the lie in
its own office, or elso it would have
given the name of the "Iowa Union
Man" (so-called) so as to. lend some
semblance of truth'to tho statement.
If tho Jiullctin will furnish tho public
with tho namo of its "Iowa Union
Mau" wo will exonerate its editor
from the ohargo of having invented
tho falsehoods contained in tho card,
otherwiso he oannot ovado tho patent
fact that tho card spokou of was in
vented in his sanctum.
