&f aW J wlit 3cui0crat. MAIiT. V. BROWN, EDltOK. FRIDAY. .JULY 18, 1879. SOV. ALI EN'S IE ITIt. Last Friday, Hon. Wm. Allen, ex Governor of Ohio, died after an illness of very luief duration. He was in Chillicotlie on Wednesday, apparently in most excellent health ami Fpirits, His first mention of illness was on Thursday morning, but he cii.l not re gard his condition of sufficient conse quences to receive attention until four in the afternoon, when ho had symp toms of a chill, and Pr. Scott, hia son- in-law and physician, induced him to take some medicine and go to bed. Mrs. Soott remained in attendance on him, although. Governor Allen consid sidered it useless and urged her to re tire, lie was up several times during the night. About 1:30 in the. morning he arose suddenly, left his IkhI and, staggering into a chair, died without a word. Dr. Scott had seated himself iu an adjoining room, and responded has tily to Mrs. Scott's call, but before he reached the governor's side he was dead. As soon as hia death was known, Gov. Bishop issued a .very eulogistic proclamation reciting Gov. Allen's pub lic services, and directing that the flags of the capital be displayed a half-mast, and closing the state offices on the day of the funeral. Gov. Allen was an un flinching Democrat of he old 'school, and under his leadership Ohio was wrested from Republican rule a few years ago. The Republican press de famed him during his life, but now the X. I". Times savs : "Amid acerbities and excitements of constantly renewed political struggles, it is well to recall the fact that this man, now beyond the reach of nraLse or blame, was honest consistent and courageous." as wo xt BErisE. There has been a great deal of posi ti naaorf ii-in nd eouallv positive de nial of General Grant's willingness accept the Republics nomination for President. Ex Secretary Boric, who has been his traveling companion for the last year in his peregrinations around the world, fhas probably had better opportunity to know Grant's in clinations on the subject than any one in this country. That gentleman has recently returned home to Philadelphia. A paragraph in the New York Tribune says of him: "Ex-Secretary Born who has been absent with General Grant in his tour of the world, has reached his home in Philadelphia, hav ing left the rest of the party at Shang Lai on May 21. He has come back confident that General Grant will be the Republican candidate for the Press. dency in 1880. 'I made op my mind to ask him to decline the honor posi tively,' Mr. Borie tells a Philadelphia friend, 'but I lacked the courage. My friends said there was no use in making the experiment, and even Democrats coincide with them. The General does not allow the matter to bother him. He knows it- is talked about here, but he never allades to it in any way. If the nomination were urged upon him as a necessity, I do not think he would refuse it.' " Refuse ! Did he ever re fuse anything t Why should he refuse the Presidency, if be can get it f TBE BEMOKATIC POSITION. A Republican exchange wants to know in what condition the actions of the late Congress have left our party. The condition was never better. That Congress has placed our party on the position that the people can bo- relied on to secure free and fair elections. The Republican position is, that the right of the Executive to interfere by means of the army and partisan scrnti ners at elections is absolute, and that the people must stand aside. The Re publican doctrine was notably executed in 1876, when, by means of the ma chinery illegally created, they set aside the will of the people and the electoral college, and stole the Presidency. They openly propose to steal the Presidency again by the same method, and the Democratic position is that they shall not do it. AS IS J 1ST ACT. In compliance with an Older from the department of justice at Washing ton, signed by Attorney General Dev ens, authorizing the removal of George Reynold's, the convicted Mornion biga mist, from the Nebraska penitentiary to the Utah territorial prison, Warden Dawson, of the Nebraska penitentiary, last Monday delivered over the priso ner to Marshal Shaughnessy at Kear ney, who proceeded westward with him. Reynolds will be confined in an adobe building containing four cells, about four miles from Salt Lake City, where he will have ample opportunity to see his family and friends at frequent inter vals. This removal was brought about by the efforts of Delegate Cannon, of Utah. What does law amount to when administered thus! THE " BESTOX DEMOCRAT.' Our talented friend Chas. Moaner, late of the Roseburg Star, has taken charge of the Benton Democrat, and we safely predict that under his manage ment that paper will assume a conspic uous station in the front rank of pro vincial journalism in Oregon. The Democracy of Benton should give it a liberal patronage. ni LL WORTH F PKBtSAl. The following reply of the "Washing Oar ton Post to the Now York Tint? on the Electoral Commission is well wor thy of an attentive jwrusal: We agree with tho Timet that the Commission "was clothed with authority to exam ine the grounds of tho Electoral dis pute." But the Times, and everybody else, knows that tlm first thinj which the. Commission dkl teas to decide that it tfWJ NOT o the very thinj it uw create to ,to"rttmiiM the yrotmt of the Jiopule." The Democratic party had its choice either to resist this out- rage on tho part of the Commission, and thereby incur tno aiiuost riss oi piuuguig mo i-wuiiHj ww lutionary strife, or to accept the jveaee- U,tA,. -,..,- r 1- Kit is rar.idlv ful levolution which the Commission ! decreed when it refusedlo 'examine the 0( grounds, and gave tho otlice to tho can- diaate ticicatea at tne jions. it pain- It patri- olically decidetl to adopt the l'ktter course so lar as 10 auuiis .ir. njjra c facto title, but it was nover gumy oi .. . . . .. . r - the wrong, the ndamy of ag-eing,evon by implication, not to hold up and do- nounce at all times and m all places the crime committed in setting asme u tne election oi io.o, u.e mi-u . w sharers in tliat iniquity, ana an w I imgn ticome me accompnc . . . i; e. 1 fact. On the contrary tho Democratic party, from the very first, regardwl it as a solemn duty to keep this colossal crimo of tho ago before tho gaze of the people, that it might become more and more hateful as time should pass, and that silorce might not bo construed in to consent or approval, and thus courage reitition. There was never a more imjHrauvo u,y u. . """ ciation of all the varied inUmtes that constituted tho Presidential theft.

This is why the leading men of the Democratic party speak of Mr. Hayes as a l-raud ulent President. If they lacked cour age to thus sjak the troth, the masses of the jiarty would soon repudiate their leadership. It is quite enough that the majority of the American people endure the wrongs tliat rob them of the con trot of this Government, and keeps that control in the hands of the jstrty beat en in the election. For tho Time to expect them to be silent and thus stul tify themselves and encourage revolu tion is going too far. Mr. Hayes will get no further courtesy than such otli- cial lesognition t fjhis tie facto title as is necessary to the projer running of the mechanisn of the Government.

A dispatch to tlio Oreymian, dated New York, July 10, 1879, contains the following important information : " It is stated by the Northern Pacific Rail road Company that the rapid develojc ment of Washington Territory and the demand for railroad facilities have de termined them to commence the con struction of the road from tho Colum bia river eastward to Pen d'Oriello lake, a distance of 200 miles. They accord ingly issued a circular calling for an additional $2,000,000. Tho subscrip tions closed yesterday, the entire amount having been taken by stock holders. The construction will begin i as soon as the line can be located. Ten thousand tons of steel rails wero pur chased to-day for this road." MOKK ItW BOATS. . , . i X " York of an official character, that the Oregon Railroad and Navigation dir. pany will immediately begin the exten sion of their narrow gaugo line in the directioA of Idaho. Other narrow gauge roads tributary to the Columbia will be built, including a line down to Portland. The company have already contracted with John Rorcli for another new steamer, larger and faster than any along the Pacific Coast. Chief Engi neer Henderson, of the Oregon, has gone East, and writes that the ma chinery has been selected for the new boat, which will be the very best, and that the new steamer will surpass any on this coast, and equal to those on the Atlantic. This looks like business on the part of tl owners of our transpor tation interests. Standard. HOME "OJf HBWttU." Senator Jas. II. Slater has arrived at his home in La Grande from Washing ton. Senator Grover has not yet re turned, but may be expected soon. Hon. John Whiteaker will arrive at Portland to-night, on his return from the extra session of Congress. He didn't make as quick a trip returning a3 he did when going Eastward, but he doubtless enjoyed it much better.

Numerous smokes are Beento rise from th bot tom indicating tho presence of a consid. entitle tsxly of Indians. The approach es to the Indian camp are ihiough tqi rocky detilea necessitating the utmost caution in approaching tlio place. The last heard of Col.

This naturally produces some uneasiness, though no Indians have been seen only their smokes and signal fires on the mountains. Mr. White thinks that the presenco ol a smalt volunteer com pany on tho route- between Indian val ley and Warren's would niako'that sec tion of tho country safo and be of great assistance to the settlers. 1 Te says that the ciojis along the route are looking splendid.

Just befosn sailing for Kurojsj Repre sentative llc-tanou, who, whatever else may bo said of him, is one of the ablest Republicans in the House, said to a Dcmoctatic Senator, in private conver sation : " There, is no doubt in my mind but that you Democrats will eventually beat us on this issue." He r.,f..rred to tho troons at tho noils and tho election marshals question. And tl. ,liv all of tbem : but Chan- Her and Coukling hope, as ono last des- J ' ' rbanee. to fire the Northern l.Mrt with tho old falsehoods and M-ei- udices against tho South. To sum up tho session, so far as this contest is con cerned, it ends with tho jurors' test oatti law repealed, tho use of troops t the iolls prohibited, and tho Federal deputy marshals ncd supervisors with out an occupation. Tlio Democrats have thus attained all, in substance, that they asked for at the commence ment of tho fight. It is said that since Congress left Hayes and Devens -are concocting a plan to call another session in September, just before tho Ohio election, the idea being to issue a mes sage setting forth the terrible results of tho failure to give him marshals, and to thus influence the election. But should this be attempted, nobody i!l be de ceived by Hayes' sophistry. One of the most graceful and satis factory last acts of the session was the almost unanimous passage of Mr. Mc Kenzie's (of Kentucky,) bill removing the duty on quinine. Two or throe bills covoring this object wero intro duced early in the session, one by Mr. McKenzie himself, but they went to Fernando Wood's Ways and Means Committee, and, like some other good measures sent thore, never saw day light again. But perseverance wins, and in the interim of waiting for ad journment Mr. McKenzio introduced another bill on Monday, and it went through both Houses with a ruhh. A profit of about $700,000 per year has been monopolized by three or four Gnus for several years past, and it was a creditable job placing it . on the free list.
