MART. V. BROWN, EDITOR. FRIDAY JANUARY 21, 1881 tuf. f.lkctoku. qj r.vrzox. Much now i being said on the quos tlon of changing tkekw prorMing for Preaitlential Electors and allowing the people to choose a President direct, :md thore is unquestionably a growing dis position in favor of changing the Fed aral Con ti itloa in this respect. At a late gathering of Indiana Democratic editors to map out a future policy, this Htm the first recommendation. The oalvoVj action to it that has much -weight is that it would he a departure from the system established when the government was for!nel. Then it i thought better to entrust the choice of sident to an el oral college, and theory was thai the countrv would more likely to be well served than if our rulers were voted for bv the peo pie direct. Hence in the selection of Presidential electors cure was exercised to nominate gentlemen of more than ordinary intelligence and weight of character, who would be better able to judge of the qualifications ot candid. ties fer the Presidency than the great DMM of citizens. Tnis idea has now become obsolete. Presidential e'cctois Lave practicallv become QOiasaUfcee men to receive ibe votes and place to- OS in the ballot box. An elector who should ercise his own will a:id discretion in casting his vote tor Preside: and dis regard the implied instructions under which he acts, would be regarded as a monster, and would be hooted at. But to change the present feature of keep ing up State lines and adj aaling tbe Presidential rote by a:i apjiortioninen! . measured by the Congressional delega tion, may be thought to infringe against State right. It would be a departure, bat it is difficult to percrive any valid objection in the way. The bottom principle of the Government is i! it derives its jowera from the popnlai oonsent and that a majority moat rule. This seems to Ve applicable to the choice of national ruleis if to anything. Nor ia there anv reason why one ei i - sen's vote should be aifocted by that ut any other, whsther a resident of one State r another. Under the present system the majority frequently does not rule. Mr. Buchanan did not re ceive a majority of the j-opular vote. Nor did Mr. Lincoln at his first elec tion. Mr. Hayes also came far sburt of it. The same is probably true of Mr. Garfield. These facta are certainly worthy to be considered. If the pOfHfr- lar will is entitled to rule iu theory, it ought to in point of fact.

There ia '.j no formal resignation of position, but under the weight of ad vancing years, and the parsait of long cherished literary taak. Lord Bea consfield is rnxious to be relieved of the hard work of active politics, in order to hare more leisnre for other matters, ft is also believed that Gladstone will shortly be called to the House of Lords place of rest md quiet in his old His heaith bj in a condition that :auses alarm to his tamiiy and friend. The Marquis of Hartington will suc ceed him in the trying and arduous position of leader of the Hoeae of Com mons. With Disraeli and Gladstone no longer in actire politics there will be a chance for the yosager men to shew of what they are mad. None of them, at present, give feigns of being in any sense comparable with the two aged st-tesmen soon to eek retireassnt.

OF XSIE Ji.iH In consequence of the unprecedented flxd aud consequent high water the mails have been completely "bottled up" in the post offices for the past two weeks, hence the past two issues of the Democrat, sharing the fate of all VvVj foot mail matter, has lain dormant in the Albany post office and could not be sent forward. Nobody is to blame for this but the "dork of the weather," and as he seems to have a life "hit," we suppose there is no use to ask Ha te remove him especially since it has been discovered that he is from Ohio ! Mas. W. J. Dyer, daugbter of Mr Sam. A. Clarke, ol the Willamette Far mer, died suddenly at her home in "Walla Walla Last Monday. ' Minnie" as she was so well and favorably known in salem and Portland was a bride of less than a year, and her death will be sincerely mourned by a larjre circle of Oregon friends. We tender m the bereaved parents our most sincere pympathy. SiTTlxo Bull and his whole tribe of treacherous reptiles have surrender, ed to the government troops, and now the demand for grub, blankets, scalping knives and breach loading rifles for the ext Bummer's campaign by the tribe ill be enormous. i.om: to mm rUkCS erru Jtis. SbSQ the Presidential election the iVmoeratie DMM as well as all recog nized organisations of the party, have made it a specialty to expose John Kelly's treachery, and give him tho "grand bounce." until now there is none so poor within the j rty lines to! do the great Tammany Sachem homage. And this utter dethronement o( the once jKwerful metropolitan politician should teanh him and all other politi cal manipulator! t wo important lessons. Indeed these lessens might be taken home to a few of our Oregon politicians, and their moral applied with good client, t ne lesson to be learned from Kelly's fall is that in political, as iu all other affairs, there is a law of retribu tion which sooner or later wi'l assert itself beyond possibility of escape The other is that there is a point be yond which the one man power cannot gO. The Tammany leader in the pride of his pewer undertook to dietau? to tho Democracy of the nation !s standard bearer four ears ago, but after exert ing himselt to the utmost tie was tte feated by the spirit of reform, which was found embodied in the peMOa if Gov. Titden. That defeat, however, only nerved him to make a more des pei ate ell. . which, unfortunately, was tOO successful. When routed at St. LOOM ho was w ise enough to keep in ;.ide the lines of the Democratic party, not dajiog then to raise ojienly the standard of rfolt. Bat, no' withstand ing, a largo majority of the jssople had unmistakably indicated a detormina tion to ergraft into our nationality the spirit of reform as its distinctive force, and well knowing that it pointed to Got. Tildeu as its exponent as well in IsSO as ia 1 nml with oven more potency, he set his machinery la me tier, to s'.itle it through the ordinmy .I.An.ld ..( MHAM .1 I t I hit t! A 1 , ,1; in that he Stiack an open blow at it by defeating Uov. Robinson Usf year, whose oti.v l . i i 1 r mas lU.it no was a friend of the reform candidate for the Presidency, and whose reelection he rightly jodfsd would generally be re garded as a renewul of a detensiaatten to repeat the poaalac verdict of lc7fi Success then emboldeneii him for Strong er efforts in the saai" direction, aud in . ph, w i'.'u a power behind him which was recOgBtsed by Um na tional Deuiecracy us too poererfal to be grappled with, he was enabled todivurt the popalar mind from its projier pur pose, end for a Usee bkhSt the Irenes in spired of a national lefbffli ndministra tion under Democrati; auspices. Now swift retribution 1ms oeertahea him. and th grave which he prepaied for others . has swallowed him up. The lesson is an instructive one fur all party Alrttrira. and dcaervf-a to be Studied not only by boame, bat by their blind supporters. Iaaaerslup ia politics, wkaa under the guidance of patriotic parpoMf ; I superior wUdom, skill aod exaoutivo force, is not a thing to be deprecated. When, however, SS is the case with ; - il Mr. Kelly, it uHSumea te act from the j blind impulse of power and personal prerogative it beoSBies a nui-'ance to le j abated and a danger to le overthrown. The caucus system was never designed to become a piece of mechanium for thwarting the public will, and when it becomes such it loses its BsOredneai and ban outgrown its usefulness. Wboa used, as it has been in New Yark city, merely to register the decrees of a siogle dictator, it has no claim to popular re gard either in action or uei tJaMBt. Its design whs and is to represent the vir tue and intelligence cf the peopbi, not to crucify them. It is beginning to be felt that loyalty to principle is a higher duty than devotion to a mechanical contrivance which is made te turn out leaders abo have not other crrdentiala than those which ate purely official. The spirit ot uMlepeadaaee is abroad ia he land and will not allow the one man pow?r to rid iu triumph over the necks of the jeople. The Desaoeiatic j arty, as a rule, makes no war on any organization with in its line ; bat the fate of the proud leader of Tammany should be a warn ing to that organization and ail others, that something beside capacity to lead the blind multitude is needful in lead sbip, and that it party organizations prostitute their influence and opportu nities, they as well as their favorites will go by the board. The people, not the machine, jaaat rule in this country, and will. Jmperialtm has BO place in American politic?, a'id ie-.-'St of all in the Democratic party Whenever and wherever it shows its head it desei res a blow, and will be quite likely to get 1 it sooner or later. nrsTRora eek iot.pe.dz e.

The potato hug, srmy worm, giasshopper and protracted drouth, In turn, leave a large number of the people in a condition bordering on absolute want, A heavy responsi bility rests on s number of Republican colporteurs who induced thousands oi negroes to leave their warm, congenial, sunny Southern homes, whero they had steady work, good wages and plenty to est, end go to Kansas where they are freesing and starving.

The oue great truth which the negro needs to under stand is that his future well-being does not depend upon any particular party, but always upon himself.
