For President of the United States, JAMES A. GARFIELD, OF OHIO. For Vice President, CHESTER A. ARTHUR, OF NEW YORK. For Presidential Electors, GEO. B. CURRY, C B. WATSON, E. L. APFLEGATE. It was not our purpose to make any exultant remarks over our good fortune, in the recent political con test, or to answer any of ilie growl ing remarks maIe ly either Demo cratic journals or individuals ; but we can not longer refrain. We con stantly hear it charged on street coi ners, and it meets our eye in every Democratic paper we read, that Re publicans bought their recent victory; that the result was only the triumph of dollars and cpnts, etc.. etc. Now we listened to this for quite a while without any response, but now feel it our duty to come to the front in the defense of the Democratic voters of the State. The charge that Repub leans bought voles necessarily im plies that the Democrats sold their "votes, which we do not believe. We believe that the average Democrat is honest, and the number of votes the democracy accuse us of buyirti with the money claimed to be used for that purpose brings the democrat down to about the price of a scabby sheep. This accusation we most em phatically deny and we earnestly in sist that Democrats Ftop vilifying their own party supporters. OUR STANDARD BEARER. The Republican party is to be con gratulated that, through its represen tative, it has selected for the stand ard Ivarers, gentlemen well known throughout the country, but whose patri nism and standing, carry with them no bitterness and no. partisan feeling. We are proud to acknowl edge as our leader a gentleman who is known throughout the land as able, as eloquent and as a thorough-going Republican. We are proud to ac knowledge as our leader a man who was recently a candidate for United States Senator in his own Slate; a man who was so thoroughly imbued with the honesty of his political standing that he refused and refrain ed from advocating and advancing his own claims, ami who is in har mony with the Pacific Coast on their particular issues. We are prom of the work of 1 lie Chicago Convention. General Gar field Senator Garfield President Garfield for he lias so many titles of honor we know not by which to call him has as strong a claim on the affections of the average Ameri can as any man who was ever put forward, without his own action, for the suffrages of a nation. No mai can read the record of his life. No man can read the history of that barefooted farmer's boy we say, " a farmer's boy" Ids father died when he was tod young to remember even his father's face, and he w.s a widow's son, upon a desolate little farm, near the shore of one of tin great lakes, in Ohio a barefooted boy, he earned his daily bread, and as he drove his horses on ilie track of the great Ohio and Chesapeake Canal, he studied and fitted himself for the occupation that was before him. He educatediiimself. Our platform talks about the necessities of education as necessary to American liberty. Over thirty years ago thnt man discovered that principle, and lie educated him self. By Ins own labors he fitted himself to become a member of one of the great colleges of the land. He worked in the summer, and he studied in the winter, and eame out ranking amongst the first in the class, without the aid of any mortal dollar except those his own hard hands had earned. Not born in the purple, not born with education forced on him by those who determined to educate him but he knew its value, and he fought its battle for himself. He was by turns in one occupation and oth er, and in all successful. Successful in early life, successful as a soldier and successful in the halls of Congress he will prove himself successful as the chief executive of the United Slates. We remember him as he fought the rebels in the field ; and ably and bravely as he fought there, he fought even more the impenitent Democracy in the halls of Congress. There were a great many names before the Chi cago Convention whose friends de sired their nomination ; but it seems that the hand of Providence guided the mind of the Convention to this man as the most fitting representa tive of Republican principles and the life of the Republican party. Those other gieat men must join the band of illustrious names such as VVtb ster, Clay, Chase, Seward and others of whom it has been and will be written, "Too great to be President of the United Slates." We honor him none the less, but we go into the fight now united as we would not have been united had, perhaps, any other man than James A. Garfield received that nomination. We have never seen the standard of the Re publican party higher advanced than it is now, nor the party better united; and it will go forward to victory in the coming contest. THE TENTHCENSUS. Regularly appointed officers of the United States are now engaged in t aking the tenth census of Oregon, and every State and Territory in the United Stales. The first Federal census was taken very loosely in the year 1790. It was little more than an approxima lion of the number of inhabitants then in the United States. From that time to 1850 a similar ennmera tion was taken every ten years. Ii 1850 an attempt was made for tl first time, with tolerable success, to collect statistics of manufactures, immigration, migration, agriculture births, deaths, occupations, and clas sification of age, sex, condition, edu cation, etc., as well as general popula tion. In I860 and 1870 still further improvements were made in statisti eal methods; and this year (1880) it has been the intent of the Act au ihorizing the census and making ad equate appropriation "of money there for, to very considerably improve on the accuracy and amplitude of all formei enumerations. But there can be no accuracy- unless the heads of families and households cordially aid the census officers by giving prompt and truthful replies to all the ques lions that will be propounded. There is no good reason why they should not do so. The object of these ques ttous is lo secure the greatest possi ble amount of statistical mfbrmalioi touching the population, material condition, educational, moral and mental status of the people, their in dustries, trades, employments, and whatever else will be of use to them ill and to the enlightenment of Con gress, the Government, State, muni cipal and national, to know. Taxa tion nas noining 10 io Willi it. JNo person's taxes can be to the extent of one cent increased or diminished i " i . . nj nits answers to ne giver, to the questions the census officers will ask. Every question is ordered and direct ed by law, and nothing is left at the discretion of the officer. The Gazette, for the foregoing reasons, earnestly entreats household ers, hotel keepers, directors of man ufacturing establishments, superin tendents of public institutions, and all heads of families, male or female, to make prompt and truthful answers to every question that may be pro pounded, and in all reasonable ways to aid the officers who may call on them in the dispatch of the business in hand. If there is an idiot or an insane person in any family or house hold, or one whose blodd is tainted with an incurable malady, whether mental or pliysical, the fact should be slated in reply to the , question ; but in no case is it required that the name of any such unfortunate shall be given. The purpose of the census is not to disturb the tranquility of families or expose the crimes and misfortunes of individuals, but to col lect the material for as accurate a photograph of the country as possi ble its population first, by age, sex, condition, religious, mental, moral and physical ; its wealth and indus tries, and how they are represented and distributed anmong the various cities, towns, counties, State and Territories. District Attorney. In onr last issue we were unable lo give the re sult of the election of District At torney for this District. Since then tl returns of Coos and Curry coun ties nave decided the matter in favor of our opponent, by a small majority. Mr. Hamilton is a man of learning and ability, and will, we doubt not, make an efficient officer. We feel grateful for the complimentary vote received in this county and the Dis trict, and extend to our successful competitor our hearty congratula tions, hoping we may have " better luck next time.'1'' n,SwA,S ot grasshoppers have appeared in tne VViiJow creek country, Happy can von and the Walla Walla valley?

Stanton and Macky are making a fine job of the Newport and Corvallis road. Jos. R. K. Irvin has rented the Ocean House, will be here pr. steEmer with fin nit ure, fcc, about the 25th. Peter Abbey has eularged his hotel and is ready to receive and entertain th oublic in good style. The entire frontage of Newport is being pro lected by a well made bulk-bean which will add both to the value ot property, and the general appearance of the town. Several improvements ate noticeable and some building con templated when the appropriation is made and the certainty of railroad connection. Yaquina Bay will move and keep pace with other favored portions of the State. The political cauldren has ceased to boil, and that which the people considered impure has been skimmed off. Finding myself elected for a trip up Sad River, I went to the of fice to find the sailing day it seems the entire Democratic State ticket being dubbed, "Honest," had con eluded to not mix with the " com inon peril" and iiad chartered a spe cial boat, this boat is noted for being extremely democratic in build and style, no cabin, no stateroom, no nothing's, except it is her imraenoe poop deck. In order lo supply the public dispatches will be forwarded from stations along the route, siged by one or more of the ''Honest" gen tlemen and duly " endorsed" by- Kelly. Having expended all my loose change in the " late unpleasentness,' 1 concluded to charter the only re maining vessel and had just closed the contract when McFadden wrote to say a number of his particular and personal friends wished logo up the eame stream, and as there was a good many of them, Mac thought a reduc lion ought to be made. Now Mac lias always been devilish kind t-o me, and feeling rhat he may be in condi lion, some day, toreturn the favor, I consented, so when the whistle blows be ready; we will make Ham mond's bar the first day, and if then is as much water on it as the candi dates tried to make the Soap creekers believe there was, we can get over all right Rialto. Newport, June 12, 1880. NEAR PHILOMATH. Ed. Gazette The political war fare has come to a close for the pres ent, so man can do no better than lo return to the most "nolde" of all me nonie woiks to the unties or right of the "plough handle." The people of the United States pay annually over $100,000,000 to foreign countries for sugar and syrup, while there is nojjeason in the world why they should not produce at least ihe sugar they consume. If sorghum cannot be successful I y grown in Ore gon, why not try sugar-beets? Pu- yalltip valley (Washington Territory) is making great efforts to establish the tact at home that beet sugar, to any extent required, may be made in this country. Willamette valley, with her soil and climate, must, by any body who knows anything about su gar beet growing, be considered per fectly adapted for such an enterprise. Sugar manufacturers of America are willing to pay more than those of any other county in the world for roots; they pay in California at the factory over $5 00 per ton, and farm ers can afford to grow the beets for less than that. There would be only one difficulty inN the way, which is dmply ibis: Our farmers don't know how, and wont learn. Good farmers would average at least 20 tons in Willamette valley, and even as much as 35 and 40 in some of the bottoms near the rivers per acre, careless land-skimmers could not. Manufacturers could pay a good price for the roots grown here, as those raised in Puyallup valley, a country pretty near ihe same as ours, proved to be superior to any others ever grown in America. The Puyal- up beets showed to possess 13 per centage of sugar, and this simply means one per cent, more than any other country of America ever has proved ; and almost 2 per centage more than the best result ever known u Europe. Tlie most celebrated sn gar beet larmer in 1 huringia and Hanover (in Germany) and in the bottoms of the Loire (France) never produced a beet that had contained more than 12 per centage. By sowing beets, farmers onght to lay out the rows closer than 22 or 24 mriies, and the seed with from 8 to 9 nches intermediate space. The rows ought at least not Oe so close as to prevent the use of a one horse culti vator. The soil ought to be plough ed at least ten inches deep, the part of the beet that has to grow above the ground, is no account for sugar. As some of the greatest benefits of the beet-sugar business we have to enumerate the deep tillage, clean culture, and lie necessity of rota tion which it involves, making the crop substantially a clear gain, Jhe other years of the rotation producing a larger quantity of other products ever before. Liberal. Near Philomath, June 11, 1880. ITEMS FROM SUMMIT AND TUM TUM. Ed. Gazette : Early Monday morning duty called us to leave thp " heart of the valley," and direct our course toward the green hills of the Coast Range. Taking passage on the Yaquina stage, which leaves Cor vallis at 6 o'clock, after an hour's ride we come to Philomath, where fresh -orses was hitched to the coach and in twenty minutes we were off again, and making good time, con sidering the condition of the roads. By noon we find ourselves at the Summit House, kept by Mr. Geo. L Crain, who also is postmaster. Soon a sumptions dinner was ready, and the edibles disappeared, when subjected to our sharpened appetites, with wonderful rapidity ; but the table is well supplied with good thing, and eventually a satisfied feel ing overcomes us and we are led to believe we have eaten enough, not withstanding the proffered fourth cup of coffee, etc. Abqut 1:30 o'clock the stage again moves on, but having reached the point around which lies our field of labor for a short time, must content ourselves to see the coach roll out of sight and disappear around the mountain.. We have already extendedtnir of ficial visits to a large number of fam ilies, have received kind and courte ous treatment at every place, and good lodging and accommodations at the hands of Mr. Crain, at the Summit, Mr. J. Skaggs, near the head of Mary's river, Mr. A. Porter, on the Yaquina and Mr. G. McFad den in Little Elk valley, at whose residence this letter was written. We should not fail to mention the hospitable reception and kind treat ment we received at the camp oi Wallis Nash, Esq., on Rock creek, a tributary ot the Siletz river. Mr. Nash has a tract of 3,000 acres of land on Rock creek and vicinity and is erecting a residence on the same, about five miles from the Ya quinarotd; he has a wagon road completed to within a half mile ol camp, which road has been complet ed at a heavy cost, as some of the cuts and grades were very difficult to excavate. Mr. Nash is making a rangemeiits to fence part or all of his land. He expects to move bis family hence as soon as the house can be completed. There are two companies of hands woiking on the Yaquina road near the Summit. Mr. .Porter is work ing on the hill near Mr. Aldrich's, and Mr. D. Johnson's crowd is work ing near, and east of the postoffice. The road will soon be fixed in good shape, and pleasure seekers going to the coast, will have a smooth roac over which to pass. "Mr. 'frapp, also has a force working on the lower part of the road. Respectfully, High .Land. Little Elk, June 6, 1880. GRAND CHAPTER R- A.

NEW STAGE COACH. PREPARED BY R. P. HALL & CO., NASHUA, N. H. Sold by all Dealers In Medicine. A Hasty Shot and Narrow Escape. On Monday morning, about 1 o'clock, the watchmnn, Davis, and Wm. Igo, formerly the jailor, who had been watching certain parties suspected of mischief, and fully be lieving that they contemplated burglary, left the Palace saloon and crossed over between Abegg's and Moxley's, and Davis then left to go and get some coll'ee, telling Igo to keep a sharp watch. Soon after Davis left, Igo observed a flicker of light reflected upon the vt'indow oi the saloon or Hunker and oquier, which soon was extinguished. He cautiously approached, and iookiing through the win dow he observed a man by the light of the window upon the oprxisite side behind the safe, and stooping down as if attempting to open the safe. Igo says he hailed him, and receiving no answer he aimed his revolver at him and fired, and soon discovered that he had shot at Charley Allen, the bar-keeper, and hit him in the shoulder, inflicting a very severe wound. Igo immediately went for Dr. Kelly and rendered all the aid and assistance he could for the wounded man. Allen was taken to his room and the wound examined, but it was impossible then to tell where the ball had lodged. On Monday Dr. Kelly succeeded in finding and extracting the ball. The bone is somewhat shattered, but though it may require some time to heal, and possi bly may stiffen the shoulder at the joint, yet it is hoped that no further injury wilFiresiilt. Allen is a little deaf, and says he saw Igo and spoke to him before he shot, and that Igo did not speak before he fired, or if he did so, Allen did not hear him. Allen had got up from hia bed and gone to the saloon on some errand, and used no other light then that of a match as he first entered to see the direction he wished to go, which soon burned out. There is no doubt that Igo's suspicions were much aroused, else he would have used more deliberation before firing bis pistol. Allen's eseape was narrow. A man should be certain before he tires, in all cases. Idaho Papur. Mrs. President Garfield.
