New Hampshire democrats have nom

As shown by Hermann's own letter to
Ed. McPherson.whlch we published a few
days ago, that gentleman's election was e
cured two years ago by Jo. Simon's money
Jo. wants this $1000 paid back, so that he
may secure his own election thU year to
the Utate Senate. And yet the friends cf
Hermann and Jo. Simon are giving vent lo
continued righteoua scrccchings about
Cleveland's sack.
A few days ago some one started the hf
port that I.C. Dickey, former Sheriff of
this county, but now in the employ of the
state at the penitentiary, had written a let-
er to a friend in this county urging the Ce
feat of one of the candidates 011 the demo
cratic ticket in thia count v. Mr. Dickev
having heard of this report writes us that
the report is absolutely false and without
any shadow of truth. He writes that he
ill give a reward of $500 for any such
letter. He says he is a democrat and wants
all hia old friends In Linn to "whoop 'er
up" for the whole ticket.
We are asked by a republican friend if we
are unqualified! v In favor of the Mill's tariff
bill. We answer, no. It Is not iust the
kind of bill we like. Wc would place coal
on the free list. Wc would restore a part
of the duty on wool and make many other
changcs,but the whole bill will be a com
promise, as every one of sense must know,
end no one has a right to expect that he
will get such a measure as he approves
paaaed. But so pressing is the need of tariff
reduction and surplus reduction that every
svett-wisher of tke country will make up
his mind to be content with a measure,
whether it meets his approval in all its parts
not.
The Herald still keeps up its fight on the
County Court for allowing claims in full at
times,and not doing so at other times. Alex.
Brandon.onc of the Commissioners, and re
publican candidate for re-election, was pres
ent when these claims were acted upon and
decided upon their allowance. There seems
to be no escaping the conc.usion that the
Herald seeks to defeat Mr. Brandon as well
as Mr. Whitney .for Mr. Brandon is equally
responsible for this action of the County
('urt. XVe are of the opinion thet the tax
payers of this county will find no fault
with a Court that labors to conduct the af
fairs of the county economically. What
Mr. Brandon's friends throughout the coun
ty may think of this clandestine warfare
made upon him by the Herald we are not
now aare, out It will soon come to light.

Senator Dolph will report a hill from the
Committee on Foreign Relations, of which
he is a member, within a few days to carry
the new Chinese treaty into effect, which
will undoubtedly pass both houses without
delay. The designation of the limited num
ber of ports at which Chinese may enter
into the United States in Senator Stewart's
bill will undoubtedly be adhered to. In
that event, Chinese coming by way of Met
Ico or British Columbia will be apprehend
ed and sent back.
The provisions of the treaty allowing
Chinese laborers the freedom of transi
across the country wi'l be comparatively
harmless if the Secretary of the Treasury
will make proper regulations, and if neces
sary furnish the Chinese an escort. If this
provision is rigidly enforced, few Chinese
laborers will cross the country and the ex
pense of the escort to those who do will be
comparatively light. The proposition of
Senator Stewart to make the Collector sole
judge of the right of Chinese to land, with
an appeal only to the Secretary of the Treas
ury, will also probably be adopted and the
courts will, if possible, be relieved from
further jurisdiction in the matter.
Can't 1 1 1 rcit. There is no use talking,
Albany and Corvallls people can't hitch,
can't see anything in each other worth
commending, they are at eternal outs and
there isn't much use of their attempting to
plow together. The following is what the
ViineMMy of the entertainment given by
the young people of Albany at that city last
week. The ladles who got up the enter
tainment there had their porters printed on
a hoy's press and the Tim man was mad
aud then he has ubout the same affection
for Albany that we have for Corvallls
' Those ho expected a program equal to a
company of professionals were perhapsdis
appoiuted ; their temperance melodrama,
The Hatchets, was very light and didn't
need much acting ; their flower drill was
very nicely rendered, and they got out, per
haps, all there was in it, while the singing,
by some, was not above the average, but
taking everything Into consideration they
acquitted themselves very creditably and
are entitled to the thanks of our citizens, at
least, for their assistance in a charitable ob
ject, even if they fall short of their deserved
praise. A special train had been chartered
at Albany and o er fifty people came over
and wc hope they enjoyed their trip."
A Wnoi'i'XR. - Much dissatisfaction is
expressed here from the fact that word has
just come from Albany that the democrats
have refused to divide time with the re-
Cubllcans in the coming county canvass, as
usually costornary. Brownsville ccr.
Orfgouian. n invitation to the Republi
cans to divide time has been published in
the Democrat for nearly a month.
Remark 4i REi.tr. Mr. Pres. Bow
man, who lives oppsite this city, in Benton
county, tells of being on a ylsit to his neph
ew's, In Polk county and while there was
shown the head of a steer which his father
had ia a team in crossiag the plains In 1847.
The horns have slipped off but Mr. Bow
man declares he would have known it was
old lake's (that was the animal's name,)
head by the shape.
Mr. Bihii'm Case. -Mrs. Bush, of this
city, who was taken before Judge Walton
at Eugene City for selling liquor without a
license was held to appear before Jurhjc
Deady at Portland next Tuesday. Three
or four Albany men were subpoenaed as
witnesses, not much to their good taste,and
one of them, a young man was held under
$100 bonds to appear at the Portland trial.
As he could not furnish them he slept in
the Lane county jail. A married man Is
also said to be mixed up in the matter ;
but we did not learn the names of any of
the witnesses but one.
Towards Or Ko4k -Reports from Call
forn'a indicate that things have fallen
rather flat The prospects of a wheat crop
arc very poor and mapy are discouraged.
A man traveling through the State saw
twenty teams headed for Oregon. In
Southern California the boom has fairly
burst to pieces. One man who paid $0000
for a Los Angeles lot has just been offerd
only about $a$o for it. Discouraged peo
ple have their eyes towards Oregon, and it
behoove us to be ready. We want no
soap suds boom though.
Divided. Tbe voters f District 24 are
completely divided on the question of a
new school house. Mr. Cooper Turner
Informs a Democrat man that they have
already voted two school houses by a
scratch, the last time thefirst of the week.
but each time some mistake was made and
another meeting will now be called when it
is proposed to vote for another. That will
make three, hut only one will be built.
Considerable feeling Is said to ha ye arisen
out of the matter.
A Version. - - It Is now claimed by
some that young Miller killed Wright at
the Bay in self-defense, it being said that
the Wright hoy first attacked the Miller
boy, giving him a black eve. That the
tVsTlIt t. a a e st aa
tinier dot naa cameo tnc unite two
years. Before the cae is tried it will be
reported that XVright committed suicide.
