M EM B ER OF CONGRESS.
By the death of the Bon. J. G
Wilson it becomes necessary that the
people of Oregon elect a member of
Congress -who will have to takf his
•eat on the assembling of Congress
in December next, and as the Gov
ernor has called a special election for
Monday, the 13th of October, it be
hooves the people to be casting about
to see who are candidates for the po
sition.', as well as to satisfy them
selves as to who the proper man is
for the position. There is no doubt
but both parties will make nomina
tions. Parties are very equally bal
anced in Oregon, and if the Demo
cratic party wish to succed in elect
ing their man, they must be careful
in their selection. Wo want a man
Well qualified, and who is not mixed
up in any splits or divisions that may
have been.heretofore in the politics
or local affairs of any of the county
or State elections.
The people of Eastern Oregon
claim that, as Hon. J. G. Wilson was
elected from this portion of the State,
they should be consulted in relation
to the person who is to fill the vacan
cy, and if an Eastern Oregon man is
not taken, that their wishes as to who
the man shall be from the Western
portion of the State. The Democra
cy of Eastern Oregon will contend
for the nomination of a man from
their portion of the State, if it is pos
sible that one can be found whose
record is good, who is qualified and
who can unite the entire Democratic
strength of this, as well as that of
other portions of the State.
We
have no doubt but we have many
such.
The candidates that we have heard
mentioned as likely to come before
the convention are, J. H. Slater, J.
W. Nesmith and Geo. R. Helm; these
are all good men, and we believe that
we could make choice of one of them
who would poll the full Democratic
rote of this section of Oregon; but,
we have to mention the name of an
other gentleman in this connection,
who we believe can poll a larger vote
in Eastern Oregon, as well as in all
other portions of the State, than can
either of the three above mentioned,
that man is Hon. L. L. McArthur.
He is an Eastern Oregon man by res
idence, but in all of his public acts
he has shown himself to bo just and
true to all portions of our State.
Baker county claims his as one of
her citizens, and would take it as an
honor conferred upon her if the Dem
ocracy of Oregon, in convention as
sembled, would tender him the nom
ination for Congressman, to fill the
vacancy occasioned by the death of
Mr. Wilson. We know not whether
he would accept the nomination, as
we have not consulted him in relation
thereto, but are .satisfied that if he
concludes to let his name be used,
and-should .be nominated, be can cer
tainly be elected. He is honest, ca
pable and true, and is loved and es
teemed by the whole people of this
portion .of the State, and they would
delight to honor him with their suff
rages for any office within their gift.
I f Judge McArthur will not permit
his name . to be used in this connec
tion, we hope the Democratic con
vention will be judicious in its selec
tion, and give us some other man for
whom we can do battle, knowing at
the time we are laboring for his suc
cess, that he can unite the entiro
Democratic strength of Eastern Or
egon. With a man as our standard
bearer, who is not connected with
the petty divisions which have here
tofore caused the defeat of portions
of the Democratic ticket in some of
the counties of Eastern Oregon, we
can give a Democratic majority east
of the Cascade Mountains, of One
Thousand, and Baker county will
prove herself, as shu always has done
W etofore, the banner county of
intern Oregon. We always, in this
®l«ct our whole Democratic
ticket. Baker and Umatilla counties
were the only two in the State that
cast a Democratic majority at the
last Preidential election. Onr Dem
ocrats are as true as steel, and all
they ask is agood and true man, who
can unite the Democratic party in
other portions of the State, as well
as in this, and she will again give
him her two hundred and fifty or
three hundred majority. McArthur
can carry this county by a much lar
ger majority.
D efen se o f O fficial D ish o n e sty ,
As a public journalist it is onr du
ty to keep the people advised of pass
ing events which have a bearing up
on their future prosperity and well-
fare, both politically and otherwise.
Although we publish a democratic
paper, we are not so much the slave
of iparty or of its so called leaders,
that they, or either of them, can
force ns into the support of any man
«for offiefl whom we have good reason
to believe has or would betray the
confidence of the people. The taxes
that the people have to pay, directly
and indirectly, are enormous, and a
man who is the cause of the increase
of these taxes will not receive the
support of the people, or the demo
cratic press, for any office where he
is likely to have an opportunity to
increase the burdens under which
our people are already staggering.
The Credit Mobilier robbery and
the increase and back pay steal have
been condemned universally by the
democratic press, as well as by a ma
jority of the American people. In
almost every instance the perpetra
tors of these foul wrongs have, where
the people have had an opportunity
to exercise their power, been laid
upon the shelf, there to mourn over
the false step they made in voring
for, or taking the proceeds of either
of these dishonest and thieving acts.
History repeats itself, and what has
been in one portion of the States will
certainly occur in other portions, un
der like circumstances.
In every
instance where a member of the last
Congress, who voted for or received
the back pay, has come before the
people for re-election, he has either
been defeated in convention or at the
ballot box; and wherever politicians
are so unwise as to force these men
upon the people they must expect
nothing but a disgraceful defeat.
If the democratic party sustain these
acts by placing men forward as its
standard bearers, who have been ac
cessories to the robbery of the treas
ury, after the act permitting the
theft was passed, it should and will
suffer defeat. There are but few
men who are bold enough to defend
either of these dishonest acts, by
openly and publicly defending them,
and among these few stands Matt
Carpenter, U. S. Senator from Wis
consin, of whom nothig else could
reasonable be expected; and for his
course he is more to be repected than
are those who received the “ swag;”
and have not the manliness to defend
their acts.
The men who voted against this
salary steal, because they thought it
wrong, and then took the additional
pay, are, if anything, more to blame
than those who voted for the bill. It
is not to be expected or desired that
democratic papers will defend polit
ical friends in the commission of an
act that they condemn when perpe
trated by a political opponent.
Below will we give a short article
from the Illiuois State Register,
which, we have no doubt, speaks the
true sentiments of a great majority
of the American people, in relation
to the parties who have received ben
efits from the provisions of these
dishonest an thieving measure. The
Register, which is one of the leading
democratic paper of Illinois, says:
“ If President Grant has the least
particle of gratitude in his moral—
we beg pardon—in his mortal com
position, he will straightway give
Matt Carpenter, of Wisconsin, the
best paying office in his gift. Why?
Because that learned Senator has had
the daring, we will not call it cour
age, to make what he calls a defense
of the Credit Mobilier robbery, and
particularly the increase and back
salary steal. As for the defense its
elf, it is an exquisitly sophmore and
specious argument, exactly suited to
the comprehension of the President,
and in language and logic up to
Grant’s ablest efforts.
“ It is marvelous that a man of Car
penter’s position, regardless of his
supposed talents, should venture to
attempt the defense of a measure that
stinks in the nostrils of every honest
man in this country, and is regarded
abroad as the most infamous robbery
ever committed upon an indulgent
constituency. Senator Carpenter is
a lawyer, and, perhaps, has been well
fed for undertaking so perilous a
defense. Whether paid or not, he
has earned a reputation which few
Washburn’s new building to be used
for the purpose, by Mr. W. P. Cop-
pens. As items in these parts are
scarce this week, we will employ a
portion of our time talking about our
neighbor, Mr. Bull, of the Sentinel,
who says that “ natural damphools”
always calls names, and makes the
assertion true, by calling us names.
Well, it we be a pbiste, true to our
nature, we have got a conceited Bull
dog into a fight. He classes us with
the nauseous (and spells it naseous)
animals that feed upon carrion.—
Be that so, we are having a good
feast on him—and he thinks we
could excel a squaw in digging
camas. We believe so too, if Mr.
Bull was allowed to keep the squaw
company while we were digging.
He says: “ A Southern Oregon
paper advertises under the head of
“ Wanted,” a Jackass. If the person
advertising had seen Jo. Gnomon he
would have saved the cost of that ad
vertisement.”
The above is true, for we should
have referred him directly to the
Editor of the Sentinel, he being the
only thoroughbred we know of.
His dying groan is—after asking
pardon for getting into trouble with
us—“ But Editors, you know, are
human.” If we are rightly informed
this self-stj led Editor is oftenerseen
in a condition better representing
the brute creation, than the human
family. Last week he called for his
Itemizers to assist him.
Now, just to let the readers of the
D f m o c r a t know how well Mr. Bull
is calculated for an Editor, and what
some of his correspondents think of
him, we give the following.
One of his correspondents (whose
name we omit) wrote him a private
letter, and, at the same time sent
him a few items for publication, and
Mr. Bull not being able to distin
guish the differance between private
and public matter, published the en
tire letter, and his correspondent
says if he ever writes him another
it will be to give him a cussing.—
S(c)entinel men.
JO. GNOMON.
men will covet. He has attempted
the impossible, and as a proven thief
cannot be regarded as honest, he has
failed—miserably failed.
“ The line of bis defense of official
robbery, made in a speech of two
hours’ length to a small audience of
some three or four hundred curious
listeners, is nothing less than a slan
der upon the intelligence of the peo
ple he misrepresents. Indeed, the
few who attended his speech making
is evidence that the honest people of
Wisconsin would not come to listen
to his hollow hearted haranguo.
Efforts had been made to draw the
people together. Notice of the speak
ing had been published faraud wide.
The speaker had devoted much pains
taking to his effort, and expected
thousands of hearers and abundance
of vivas. Yet with all this parade,
this pomp and circumstance, less
than five hundred people were pres
ent. Well for the Senator that it
was so. The address could add noth
ing to his fame, except this—that his
pleading was that of a lawyer, who,
attempting to make the worse appear
the better cause, proved that he had
over estimated his own powers, and
infinitely under estimated the good
sense, sound judgment and honesty
of liis constituents.
“ We do not propose to require
readers to read through a speech de
fending public robbery. As a whole
it will be read by few, probably by
^one others than those whoso duty
as journalists require them to handle
all sorts of unsound, dishonest and
offensive things. Butas a sample of
the logic of this eight columned ora
tion, we ask attention to this. Sen
ator Carpenter stives to make it ap
pear that those Congressmen who
have declined to receive the back pay
salary of the increase, are guilty of
violating thb constitution. For, says
fhe instrument, they “ shall receive”
a certain compensation for their ser
vices. Under this he holds that re-
tusing to receive is violative of the
federal constitution. A speaker who
can indulge in such logic may not de
serve the name of knave, but he cer
tainly ought to have that of fool.
“ One other point should benoticed.
He claims that the increased salary
is no more than the services of a fit
Congressman are worth. He says he
made $10,500 ih three cases before
the Supreme Court, which, with his
increased salary, aggregated $18,000.
Had he not been a United States Sen
ator he would not have been employ
ed in these suits. His official posi
tion led to his employment as coun
sel. But he fails to tell us what he

July 12th 1873.
E d it o r D e m o c r a t : —As some gob
bled sensational story may reach you
in reference to the accident suffered
by the stage leaving here for Uma
tilla, on July 1st 1873, in charge of
Arthur E. Hill, driver. I give you
the result of my investigation. The
driver left Boise on time four o’clock
P. M. with Mr. John A. Post, ourP .
M. seated on the driver’s box, Dr.
Newsom and two chinamen inside,
with the usual baggage- and mail.—
To avoid the numerous ditches of the
bottom road, the driver went by the
foothill road, the wind blowing
freshly follows the coach and made
it impossible at times to see the road
ahead. When about seven miles
from Town, Hill discovered at the
last moment as his wheelers entered
a dry ditch that the samp had been
deepened, since his last trip of the
day before, putting his foot on the
break with full force as the coach
wheels were near the edge of the
ditch, the downward lurch was so
severe as to throw the Driver off his
box and still holding the reins in his
hand attempting to hold his team
—the hind wheel of the coach passed
over his arm, seriously bruising but
not breaking it. The horses freed
from the driver’s control and start
led by tbe ratling coach, started at a
run down the level open road, Mr.
Post still keeping his seat on the
box, put his foot on the break,
and speaking gently to the horses,
brought them to a halt in about one
third to a half mile distance, the
lines in the mean time dragging the
ground, which he gathered up when
he stopped tbe team. Dr. Newsom
becoming frightened whilst the hors
es were running with Mr. Post on
the box—jumped out of the coach,
but fortunately was able to walk to
the coach where it had been stopped,
and continued his journey to Baker
City without any apparent difficulty.
Dr. Newsom as be told us bad been
in poor health whilst at Boise and
Silvor City, incapacitated for a time
on this account from working at his
profession.
Arthur E. Hill the driver has been
in tbe Company’s service for years
and given entire satisfaction in every
respect, by his sobriety, industry
and unwavering attention to his du
ties. I handed him the way pocket
just before he drove off, and found
him just as he always looks steady,
quiet and sober. I have never heard
of his drinking and have never seen
him drink under the most trying cir
cumstances, this is the first time
that Hill has ever suffered the shadow
of an accident and had Dr. Newsom
only kept his seat as he should have
done, he would have been just as
safe as if in his own office at Baker.
I am glad to add that Hill has
again fully recovered the use of his
arm and is again at his post, where I
trust him with utmost confidence. Ar
thur says though that when he has
a freshly dug ditch to cross he would
prefer the wind did not blow the
dust in thick clouds before him, and
give him chance to see the opening,
before being pitched down head
foremost.
