Alexander Del Mar makes an esti
mate of the result of tho Presidential
campaign highly favorable to General
Hancock. He gives the Democrats all
the Southern States, with Jev York,
New Jersey, Connecticut, Indiana and
California. TliU is simply adding Cali
fornia ta the list of Northern StnUs
Tilden carried fonr years ago. This
estimate gives Hancock tweuty-four
mora than enough electoral votes to
elect liim. Del Mars doubtful list in
cludes Pennsylvania, New Hampshire,
Iiliuoi-", Nevada and Oregon. Del
Mara reasons for putting Illinois and
Pennsylvania in the doubtful list, with
out iucluding Ohio, may be siifdcient
tor himself, but do rot seem based on
existing -oliiic.il facets. At" the last
lection, thb Republicans Lad a major
ity in Ohio of less than one-half of one
per cent, of the entire vote, or about
SJ00 in a total vote of nearly 700,1)00.
Pennsylvania and Illinois Vent Repub
lican at their last election by large ma
jorities. All the Democrats have to do to take
Oregon out of Del Mar's doubtful col
umn is to make a change of les3 than
7i0 fioiu George's majority ia June,
and Hancock will Lave the electoral
vote of the State in November, l'.y
industrious effort this is surely an easy
matter of accomplishment. Remember
we have an, aggregate vote of nearly
38,000 to work on.

John W. Forney, the veteran Re
publican editor and politician, very
much doubts Garfield's ability to carry
the country, and remarks: " It is not
rate or outic to tell liie truth at all
times, but it can ne ver do any hatm to
ntter the thought that is certainly at
the portals of every honest Republican
heart this day. The defeat ot Grant at
Chicago was a blunder, and the nomi
nation of Garfield does not improve
with time. Exactly as men's resent
ment against Grant begins to cool, their
anger at bis unseemly sacrifice begins
to warm. The Republicans are already
on the defensive from -Maine to the
Mexican border. Not to be irreverent
about it, the men who" consummated
this crucifixion are startled at the enor
mity of their guilt, and I fear the day
is coming when they will call tijon the
mountains to fall upon and hide them.
Mr. Forney says the Republican jmr-
ty deserves defeat for taking a man
Jike Garfield for its standard-bearer.
THE KflTF. I1IC.
This vear Salem is all in smiles the
State Fair was a "rand financial sue-
cess. The receipts are in excess of any
previous exhibition, aud will enable
the Society to pay all premiums and
perhaj cancel their indebtedness. The
weather was propitious, the exhibits
were generally first-class, and the races
x-ere the best and most interesting ever
witnessed in the State. The best of
oviler was maintained by Chief Marshal
Downing and his corps of assistant?,
an unusual scarcity of roughs and
-drunks was a notable feature of the af
fair, and in fact everything contributed
to make it a grand success.
We heartily -congratulate the man
agement on their "happy hit" this time.
WIVrtB, A JLEADKK.
The Republicans are in a bad fix.
They ha7e no leader in the present
campaign. Garfield asked Don Cam
eron to take the chairmanship of the
national committee nd run the ma
chine, but lif peremjtorily declined.
Then he interviewed Logan, but the re
sult is not yet known, but it is very
doubtfiil if he will accept. The leaders
see that it is going to bo uphill work.
Zach Ciiaudhf ran the campaign four
years ago, and wrung victory from de
feat ; but there wasn't another man in
the party that could have done it.

preme Court were (sworn into office on
Monday last by Frank E, Hodgkiri,
Notary Public, and received from Hon.
R. P. Ear-hart, Secretary of State, their
certificates of election. The drawing
for choice of terms resulted as follows :

Garfield's Congressional record It)
besmirched nil over with uniqttltl's.
In addition to his CroditMobilicr nnd
Do Golyer bribes, his back-salary
steal, etc., lot us examine another
Infamous transaction of his after ho
became chairman of the eominltteo
on appropriations, and, as ouo of his
purchasers said, "held tho purse
strings ef tho nation." Tho forty-
second congress, in which the repub
licans had large majorities In both
house?, has gone into history us mem
orable for scandalous legislation.
Among many disgraceful nets was
that authorizing tho infamous San
born contracts, by which informers
and spies wero enabled to selzo the
books of merchants, and, by conni
vance, to blackmail them, and at tho
samo timo to plunder tho treasury of
immenss sums. Tho law was the
result of a corrupt combination be
tween certain members of congress,
certain treasury oRlclals, ami one
Sanborn, with one Jayno as the mas
ter workman. Soino idea of the
magnitude of their operations may
bo fornicU from tiro fact that Sanborn
drew from tho treasury nearly CI 75,-
000 for three month's service.
But for Garfield's direct complici
ty, that infamy would havo rover
disfigured tho statute book. Tho
job was done in this way. Sawyer,
then carpet-bag senator from the
south afterward assistant secretary
aud a confederate or Sanborn'- ring,
Introduced an amendment to tho leg
islative, 'executive, and Judicial bill,
authorizing tho contracts to be made.
It was a "rider" and not lit any -way
germain to the bill. Put tho repub
licans then had the chronic habit of
mounting their very worst legislation
as riders on regular supply bills. The
bill, thus amended, was reported to
the houso April S, 1S72, ami tho job
was badly beaten.
Then camo tho line hand of trick
ery to play its part. Mr. Garfield,
instead of allowing tho bill to go
back to tho senate, where tho action
of tho house might bo concurred In,
moved directly for a coxaralttee of
conference, so as to let six men legis
late coerclvcly for three hundred,
with himself as chairman on the
house side. Of courso tho Job was
put back on the bill.and It passed, the
senate, where it had originated. Rut
tho house stood firm, and again, by a
majority of one, refused its absent on
a call of the yeas and nays. Twice
defeated, the bill was recommitted to
tho"same conference, and when next
reported had a lung tail of verbiage,
attached to deceive some and toojer-
ate as an excuse for others whose
prejudices had meanwhile been con
quered. Mr. Garfield then apirtied
the previous question, and drove the
bill through by ten majority. Addi
tion, division, and sileme won the
day.

Jilor Democrat :
I have just read in your pajK-r the
request that came to my oflico for me
to send money to tho Republican com
mittee for election purjioses, and I de
sire to correct several errors. My jiost-
oflicc is Howell Prriric not Silverton
and as for my age and salary, neither is
imjortant. I did not send that letter
with a request to have it published, but
an old gentleman who is stopping with
me was in Salem a few daj-s ag", and
he told Home parties in that city that 1
had such a document, and they wrote
to my deputy to send it to town and
they would have it published, so I sent
it withont note or comment. As fur
my political proclivities, I have voted
but one lime in thirty-seven years, but
I denounce all such, documclits from
any political jtarty. If I have . to jay
political assessments to hold a little
nine-jeany'iostoirice they are entirely
welcome to the ofiice, as I am heartily
tired of it. I am old and crippled, but
I would try to live without the office.
In correcting tltcse errors I do not
wish to throw any blame on the gentle
men who had the letter published, fis
they are my warm fi ienda.

The Orrjouian, by unwonted slu
pidity,designates Garfield as a "hog;"
but we can hardly bring ourselves to
this descent In showing up tho Radi
cal Presidential candidate'- ofijeial
waywardness; His record undoubt
edly shows evidence of the possesHion
of porcine proclivities of no obscure
nature evidence which might justi
fy the. Inelegant journalist uf the
Oreyonian in designating him -as a
"Hog;" but we are- constrained to
confine ou selves to a higher piano of
journalism and speak of Garfield only
as "one more unfortunate" whose
easy virtuo has been discovered jusT,

invincible against tho assaults and art
of the deyierate and crafty adversaries
of tho Democratic cftnse. "ltia suffi
cient in itself. " No more Chinese im
migration !" These are the four bold,
n lain, resolute words, thorough in their
directness ' of expression ; eloquent in
all that they imply ; impossible of mis
interpretation ; proof against miscon
struction ; absolute in their vigorous
and verile declaration that, after the
triumph, under Hancock and Kngliah,
under tho next Democratic administra
tion, by tho power of tbo graud old
party of tho Confctitutiou tuul good
government, in its year of victory and'
its fullness of the now life, with tho
blessing of Heaven upon tho reinstated
cause, there shall bo "No more Chinese

immoyable stand ; but with especial
delight, r tho lsw of promise for tho
glory of the victory buto to como to tho
party in November, tho Democracy of
California hail and applaud this joyous
token of their triumph in the H1iticai
firmament, to inspire them in the con
test and to bring to their 'organization
thousands of votes from tho ranks of
the sons of toil, whoso battle is white
free labor against coolio servility and
degradation, and whose constant prayer
and unceasing cry is now proclaimed by
the great Democratic "party of the Re
public, in motto form, as the chosen
watchword of the Democratic legions
of California. " No more Chir.ese in
migration !" It is the knell of Repub
lieanism and its twin barbarism on this
soil.
The Ofcjouiitu one day last week
contained the following endorsement of
Arthur, the Republican candidate for
Vice President :
"Sonio of the democratic organs are
greatly concerned over the nomitmtioa
of Geu. Arthur for vice president. They
need givo themselvin no uneasiness o
this account. Gen. Arthur's repnta
tion has never heoti tiMuiiletl, und is
alove reproach. 1 nn administration
tiought a change in the New York
custom house, wheie Gen. Arthur was
collector, necessary as a matter of iioli
cr, but tHi chargn was ever brought
affecting his integrity."
Not wishing to "throw mud' at the
Republican candidate, but simplf seek
ing to bhow thi-t the OrjgiUn editor
u either inexcusably ignorant or' else
willfully lii-a, wo reprint the following:
"Von have made the Custom House
a center of lmrtisau Klitical manage
meut." R. U. Haves to Collector Ar
thur, Jan. "I, l!79.
"With a deepsente of lny obligations
under the Constitution, I regard it as
my plain duty to susjend you in order
that the oihe may 1 hontly ad in mis
tered."- It. 15. Hayes to Collector Ar
thur Jan. 31, 1 S7U. '
"Gross abuses of administration have
continued ami increased during your
incumbency. John Sherman to Col
lector Arthur, Jan. 31,179.
"Pei-sons have been regularly mid
by you who have tendered littlu or no
service ; tho expenses of your ofiice
have liicreael while its receipts have
diminished. Rribes, or gratuities in
the shajie of brilnrs, have been received
by your subordinates in several branch
es of the Custom House, und yon have
in no case Hitptiorted the ellort to cor
rect these abuses." Secretary Sherman
to Collector Arthur, Jan. 31, 1S79.
The spectacle of Arthur paraded on
that platform with its civil sen-ice
f dank is one that the best Republicans
down this way cannot, at once, contem
plate with patience. iSjrinofieul He.
The nomination f Arthur's 1 was un.
wise as representing hostility to the ad
ministration of Mr. iliyes,and a kind
of politics not acceptable to discreet
Republicans. It is but right to ac
knowledge the disapiiointment with
which the news of the completion of
the ticket was received. Harper'

Tho Republicans claimed that it
was owing to tho treatment tho black"
received In tho south, while tho dem-

bring tho colored tnen north to help

this was particularly tho ca.o in In

to go to-morrow. I am in a bad con

I do not know what to do. It Is
well known that I havo udded twq
thousand votes to tho republican par
ty In . Indiana, and through, my
agents, now at work, will add at least
ten thousand during this month and
next. I set out last fall to direct the
exodus from other states direct into
Indiana, and I havo succeeded in do
ing It. iust think about It. I car
rled over two thousand men there
myself, and I am still directing oth
ers to go there. I talked with Post

Register Jordoif; and In fact, all f
tho republicans In Indianapolis on this
subject, last summer, and tho matter
was talked over. Yoorhees tried to
mako me expos tho men, but I be
lieved It to bo honest and right, and
told him I did, and I think so yet.
I therefore use nobody'- namo except

It was not tho a mo;; ut of corruption
money that went iuto Garfield' jockct
in the Credit MobUier ofiair, tho Dos
ton Pout alleges, but tho fact that he
was in the ring ami was deemed at the
timo to le a man whose votes and in
fluence could bo bought for money that
smooches him. He did get and still
holds dividends on stock which he says
he i.ever held. Contrast his conduct
with that of another Ohio gentleman
When Salmon P. Chase was Secretary
of the Treasury, Jay Cooke purchased
for him some tharcs in a Pennsylvania
luilroad, which f.o proposed to hold as
an investment. Contrary to his expec
tation Mr, Chase was unablo to pay for
it. Cooke continued to hold it, but
finally sold it at a profit of 81,200 and
sent a check for that amount, proposing
to treat the advance purchase made by
Cooke as a tempoiary loan. Mr. Chase
returned the check, saying ho could not
accept the favor. In his letter ho re
ferred to the fact that he had been
clothed with remarkable powers over
the currency, and. that he had deter
mined to avoid every act that would
occasion suspicion of availing himself
of his knowledge ond position to put
money into his pocket. - His closing
paragraph was, "In order to bo able, to
render tho most efliciont service to our
country, it is as essential for me to be right
as to seem right; and to seem right as
well as to be right." Note tho contrast.
WuE!f Chittenden had secured Gar
field's services for the Ifticago paving
ring, ho wrote to KcClellan and De
Golyer as follows: "To-day and to-
night's work has secured tho assistance
of Genoral Garfield. Yon can not over
rate this accession. He is the Chair
man of the Committee on Appropria
tions and holds the putse-stringa of tho
National Treasury. Through him must
como every dollar of appropriations,
need not say that I now feel oei tain of
success." This "accession" enabled the
paving ring to filch $ ,250,00 from
the publio Treasury.

Following it a lats dispatch from
Washington :
The increase of salaries of jtontnua-tt-rs
in Oregon under the new adjust
ment provided by law gives tho follow
ing result : Albany, $2,t)00t an in
crease of $.".00 ; Astoria, 1 1,000 ; Ba
ket City, 81,100; CoryallU, $1,200, an
increase of $100 ; Eugene City, 8 1 ,300,
an increase of $100; Oregon City,
$l,:00, an increase of $100 ; Portland,
$3,0(M), ru increase of $100 ; Salem,
62,000; The Dalles, 1,800, an increase
of ?3'Mj.
Sj it seems our Oregon iostmasteri
are to Ihj enabled by an easy method to
"come out" on the assessments made by
tho Radical Campaign Committee. This
opportune "raise" on their salaries
comes just in good time, and will assist
materially in swelling tho funds of the
comiption committee at Washington.
Of course a largo class of tho people
may feel inclined to "buck" at the use
of their money in this way, but we
don't see how they are to help them
selves just now. These salaries have
been opjortunely and conveniently in
creased just on tho heels of the Radi
cal committee's assessment ; the demand
for the money comes with the sanction
of Civil Service Reformer Hayes, and
as a consequence tho joor Nisbys of
tho country must "como out H
IB XATI0iAl pr.uj.
In the countries where it Is owed it
Is equal to about thirty dollars for
cverv Individual, or ono hundred and
fifty dollars forevery family. Con
sidering that in many of those Coun
tries labor Is paid at the rate of about
23 cents per day, it would take two
year8 of such labor from all the heads
of families to pay it. England bos a
debt of about two thousand five hun
dred millions of dollars, equal to about
seventy-five dollars per head of her
population, or $375 per family; and It
would take all the wages of an ordin
ary English family at about a year and
a half to pay it ycro It to bo paid.
In the United States the Interest pay
ing debt is about $.,CO.Q,000,000, or
about $30 per bead $180 per family
per year. The average earnings per
family are probably $G00 per annum,
so that the load is lighter here than
elsewhere, und it would tike not
quifo four months earnings of the
averago family to pay it.
BFIELD'S "EASY VIBTI K.
The courso of Garfield in that De
Golyer business brings out prominently
h is easy virtue. When confronted with
the evidence of having been paid a
largo sum for inserting into an Appro
priation Bill, of which lie had charge,
the item for pavement contracts, he
boldly claimed the fight to be retained
as counsel on matters seeking legisla
tion. Such moral obtuseness as that is
not what the jieople want in their rep
resentative at theyhite Jfouse. When
ho quit preaching, he evidently stepped'
down from a . high moral pedestal, as;
many others have done before him.!
Even his best friends have sufficient re-'
spect for popular intelligence hover to
associate his name with reform.
Fred Douglas, the Chicago Xews as
serts, Raid to nn old friend, as lie was
leaving the Palmer House with his
grip-sack in hand, and with all the ap
pearance ot a broken-down man: "I
scarcely dare to . speak; my heart is
bruised; they-have deserted my people;
they have lost the country." He was
asked to call upon Mr. Garfield to con
gratulate him, but instead, with bowed
head and dejected mien, he took his
solitary way to ilie depot.
