From the inoipiency while our co temporary traors the cause to the present, the Democrat haa been of the fsiluro to their aotion with refer- the unfaltering and devoted friend and ence to other vessels as well as the promoter of the best interest of oity Dolphin. Tbe wbola truth in a nut and county. The faot is indisputable shell is that Roach agreed in his on that every enterprise calculated to bnild I tract to construct tbe vessel in accord- u;t the county and city has received anoe with the acts of Cong: ess of March the individual support of the Democrat. 3 and August 5 1883.

IWAir LAMM. Toe people of Grant and Ktatnath count i--s wi'.l be much interested in a recent decUiou by Secretary Lamar in a swamp Und case from California; it ongbt to strike terror to th souls of the swamp land flood of Oregon. After setting out the facie and citing the statutes oa the subject, the stcre tary siys : A careful consideration of all the evidence shows that the said tract Is subject to periodical over flows in the winter or spring months, but the overflow subsides so as not to render the land unfit for cultivation by reason of tbe overflow. The land, therefore, is not swamp and overflow ed land within the meaning of tbe swamp land set, and tbe claim of the state must he rejected." This decis ion will cause to revert to the public domain nine-tenth of what his been gobbled in this stale under tbe swamp lind act. Ex. OTH BxrsLUurr Arroiussu. Hon. Jason Wheeler of this city ha been appointed agent at the Warm Spring Indian Reservation in Eistern Oregon, vice Alonz Qesner removed. This is a most excellent appointment and one that will meet with hearty approval by all who kno'v Mr. Wheeler. He fills the Jefferson ian test, honest and competent." We suppose our friend, Alonzo Ges- ner, will now change his mind. When he was appointed he boasted to ue about his success, whereupon we predicted that a democratic presi dent would remove him before bis term expired. 'The wills of the Gods etc." are, and the Disaemiiuitomy that tbe Secretary of the Navy and tbe Attor ney General are r sponsible for the fail- are. Now' tbe Diseminator st-sms not to have learned that Roach has already been paid over $600,000 on this self same Dolphin, and that only a few thousanJs of the contract price remaiu unpaid. No, gent)eman,a nw ordei of doin; governmental huninnss hsr been introduced and government contractor! are extec' i and required to f iltill tbeir oniraots ai vrictly as private con traders arereqiiivl lacks. I', in- been the custom iu tim m pis', to allow John Roach to s-tbmit work without examination or impeachment in return or which x'raordinary favors, he hiM contribute! muniticeut sums to elect the republican tioket from tim t timo. The advisory naval biaid ajyjintel to etamtne the veasel with a vine to ii acceptance retried that tbe workman ship was not up t ib lequiremAul of toe contract, and while the boar I wis free to admit that the plans and sp-citi- cations were tneaei, yet the veu t?x- bibits structural okaM avjt to be attribute! to f tuity plans but to their execution. Tbe truth is that Rscb has hid a free and emy iking in th way of government contrscta to a long time, and this cry "n hmuj-I. i create sympathy. But whether Wuitiiev'a re fusal to accept th-i Dilphi-i lid or did not cause the failure, does not esUSt in to tbe question, f r if it diJ, an 1 Whit ney knew before band that i'. would re snlt thus, yet as an official be could do nothing else hut ref ts j to accept.

I O-.1.U IU h sI,M A new industry has been introduced into Oregon, but it is, we believe, as yet confined to Portland and strange as it may appear, two nerspaper estab lisbments are tbe movers in this enter prise, and what is still more strange each denies having enterd into the bus iness, though evidently each seeks pop ularity and consequent, profit in the business. It appears tbnt ii is much like the ''moousbining," business, it pty very well until caught in it. It is called "date raiting." For further par I tan Ian call on the Oregon'utn md N tot. The first election of this year will b in Kentucky on next Monday when a treasurer is to be elected. For a num ber p reasons we expect to see the democratic majority greatly reduced, it reuuolicins have made a vigorous fight. The democratic state central committee nominated a candidate for treaaurer without o tiling a state convention at all. This created mucb discontent at tbe time. There is more or less grum bling iaon,,' democrats at the way state sli'iirs have been managed tbe last few years, all of which will weaken tbe democrats if tbe republicans of that state hsve life and energy enough to take advantage of them. The disreputable, political charac ter of the Oregonian is fully shown in Its repeated and persistent efforts to mak some sort of political capital for Us patty out of the death of General Grant. It would hesitate not a mo ment to speculate with Grants repu tation, If it could add the much need ed strength to the already rotten and trembliag ship of the republican party. As evidence of whit we say, we have only to refer to the very bad taste shown in IU columns in a dozen ways since the General's death. Wo bear the remark made on al' si lea that the Standard ia improving, and s it is. We hope to see it take a place in the front rank cf journalism. Secretary Manning has done an other good thing in refusing to send more money tu the Pension Agents than they really need fur the pay ment next succeeding the requisition. Heretofore Urge sum have been drawn by the agents when they al ready had in their xsceeion amounts quite sufflcent for the need of the service. As a reult, Pension Agent have been able to lot large Hums of money lie idle in the banks probab ly iu return for favor conferred. Tnere i absolutely no rexoo for this scattering of the pubUc money. The place for it is in the Treasury, where safeguards have been provid. ed for it and whero reponibility i more direct than when it is scntered from one end of the country to tho other. Besides, the Treasury i the place for public money until it hi needed to pay expenses for which ap propriations have been duly mule. Salkm, July 2.V.I., 188.V I i-.ii tu draw attention to a point hi. It I have not Keen noticed in con nection wiih tbe (jueation of the pio posed extra session of the Legialative arsamidy. It ia thia : Should the Governor issue his call fjr the extra seabion and more than cue-third of the members of either house refuse to attend, what would be the reault 1 The constitution requires the pres ence of a quorum which is two thirds of all tbe membeta elected to either house before any. businens can be done. In the sbseuce of a quorum neither bcuse could organize and elect officer. And I submit, that un'ecs a constitu tional quorum should attend volun tarily ,tbe lieguslative tension wuuld be a complete fizzle. It msy be suggebtcd that less than a quorum msy adjourn from day to day and send olfioers to luing in absent members ; but they cnooi elect an officer until a quorum meets. I deem it the duty of every Demo cratic member aud anti-maehine He publican to iff use to attend the propos ed session, if one U; h-ll. Republicans may attempt to disguise it, but every intelligent paesosj knows that tbe interests o( the tate do not re quire the extra aeidon. Gov. Moody urel the KftiuMican party will be hM rerpanaibl. f i the extra session, nhouM he eill it, and I am pleased to know that notrly !! the Democratic pse'a are OQt ;uken in tbeir opposition to it. I hope that tbe Standard under its new management will have the courage to denounce tbe proposed session, and wid not be sfratd to criticise such men as Mitchell, Dolph, Hirxch and Co., wbeu criticism is merited. In this part of the sute Democrats feel greatiy the need of a vigorous,daily journal, free from all railroad encum brances and Uepublicin entanglements, and they ho;e th'. the new manage ment will ranke the Standard such a paper.

There has been so much said about the scarlet fever at ibis place, wo wish to inform tho readme of the DkmocKAT the true ftots of the case. There has been but two cases or goat lot fever at Sodaville. Ttom worn Mr. A. Laedy's little children, one of whom died about two wouks ago.

Johnson and Alex andor, ou visiting hr Isst evening, ex pressed hopes of her recovery, but this nrntug she seems no better. We sin osrely hope that the little sufferer may soon recover. The exaggerated reports about scarlet fever at this place has undoubtedly pre vented some pursuits from coming here, but, nevertheless, there are a good many campets. Homo of those who are camp ed here are Mr. Knery and familv, of LaFyetta ; Mia Jennin riazier, ot Halem ; Mr. D Peebler and wife, form er residents of this city, now residing near Lebanon ; Mr Wbburn aud fami'y, of llrownsvilb, and Mrs. Wash burn s sister, Mrs. Stump, of Salem ; Mr. Lyons and family,of I mlependence ; Mt i.

The great "one cent" cry of our re publican friend will readily fall to pieces when you consider the fact that It nukes no difference whether you do a losing or a prosperou busi ness, your books If properly kept must and wilt balance just the same, and your cash account will agree with the cash on hand no matter how foolish or how much your extravagance has been. You will readily see that the appropriation of two and one-half million to the navy can be accounted for by debiting the navy department with that amount and if the vessels which were refitted an J built with never amounted to anything and were only a bill of uselea expense, the government will be out that much, yet this faa will not prevent the books from balancing and tho amount of cash on hsnd agree with the b dance shown by the cash account.

The whistle of the steam thrasher is sn every day greeting. Mr. J. H. Bimpson has harvested bis entire crop. Mr. John Archibald was hauling wheat last week, and when crossing Lake Creek biidge the stringers gave way, throwing himself, wagon and tesra to the ground, which was some 8 or 10 feet. So far as we can learn, no serious damage was done. The "Little Sunflowe t" is very anx ious to know what haa 1mcoimm nf Brickdust." Her trip to Scio is ail very well understood. Preparations are being made for a Sabbatb School concert, to come off iu the near future. Mr. I. T. Keighten bad quite a mis hap last week by falling fjum the bay mow. Luckily he was only s.ightly hurt. Rev. Mr. Culp delivered quite an able sermon on "Sabbath Keeping" to a good audience on last Sabbatb. Rosebuo. Tho steam thresher can be heard In every direction but we aro sorry to learn the yield is not up to the ex pectation of the farmers. About 5,000 bushels of wheat has been received at tho A.

Quite an excittnent occurred In Tangent last Friday over a small blaze on the roof of p. w. Ryan's dwelling. No serious damage done. As Mr, John Archibald was crossing Oak Creek bridge, last Friday, with a load of wheat, the bridge gave way and horses, wagon, and wheat went to the bottom, a distance of 10 foot, fhe horses and wagon were more or less injured. Prof. J. B. Horner aud wifo, were the guests of Mrs. P. A. Mo8es this week. A pair of old boots were found be tween Tangent and Albany, supposed to belong to A. D, Barker, who was wrecked on a R.

Every body ia threshing. A. H. Morris had his hand bsdly cut last week, while feeding a thresher, by the band cutter. He is running a ihresber in the vicinity of Hjck Hid. He says wheat turns out 1?0 bushels per acre. Frank Propai'a fall wheat yielded 27 bushels per sere On a late trip to Lt Mortis' I found tbe county pour well kept. Grain looks well over in Canada.
