DEMOCRATIC RATIFICATION MEETING.
On last Saturday evening tlie rem
nant of the nnterrinWd Democracy in
Linn county, about sixty in number,
visited Corvallis for the purpose ol
assisting the Democracy of Benton
in a grand ratification tntctinir at
this place. The crowd headed lv
the Second Brigade Band, assembled
at the court house, and numerous
cheers went up for Hancock, of coursi
every Democrat present desired to
make himself heard, yet the peact
and quiet of the city was not partic
ularly disturbed.
About 9 o'clock the meeting was
called to order by Judge AfcFadden,
who nominated Mr. E. Skipton for
chairman. Mr. Skipton them came
forward and being introduced, made
the following speech :
Gentlemen we are called to geth-
er to ratify the nomination of our
stand aid bearer, Gen. Hancock, lor
for President and English."
Shortly after this, Judgu Burnett
was called for and made a red hot
Democratic speech, which was fol
lowed by W. It. Bilycu, Judge
Strahan. J. J. Whitney, J. K. Wrath
erford and VV. S. McFadden,each in a
speech similar to that ol Judge B. ; as
each of these gentlemen hud to pay a
tribute to the memory of the late
Samuel J. Tilden, and assure Un
people that Gen. Hancock was their
first choice for President consider
able time was occupied by these
speeches, and as one of the features of
the demonstration was to be a torch
light procession, further oratory wa
rendered impossible, and the proces
sion was formed, headed by the
Band, and marched through tin
principal streets of the city, each
person carrying a lighted torch.
The night was lovely, the music
good, the torches binned brightly,
and the whole performance seemed
to go off quite pleasantly to all en
gaged in it.
It is impossible for us to form any
correct idea of the number of per
sons in the procession as it was get
ting late anil ihey seemed to be anx
ious to get through, and therefore,
walked too rapidly for us to count
them from any one point, and as
nearly, or quite 250 torches had been
prepared, we did not undertake
the task of counting those that were
left in the court house yard.
The Democrats did ratify the nom
ination of Hancock and English in
Corvallis, and " Don't you forget it."
The Democrats were reasonably
fortunate in their selection of tin
candidate for President. But oli
my ! that man English ! We will
have to give his record in broken
doses, and will administer a very
light one now, by saying -lie is from
Indiana, and not Connecticut, as so
many Democrats are still claimii.g.
REPUBLICAN CP1NILNS.
From the Worcester Spy.
Gen. Garfield will command the
entire vote of the party, and will be
the next President of the United
States.
From the Toledo Blade.
Of the Appropriateness of' the
choice, of tfte worth and ability of
the man who has been thus named
by unanimous vote as the standard
bearer, there can be no question.
From the Portland Press.
The- name of Gen. Garlield is a
tower of strength, and no m;in, ex
cept Senator Blaine, could be more
acceptable to the Republicans of the
State of Maine
From the liostoo Advertiser
No possible soln'ton of the diffi
onlt problem at Chicago could have
been more satisfactory than is the
nomination of Gen, Garfield for
President.
MCNEY MAKING AND MCNEY SAVING.
It is one thing to make money. It
is quite another and more difficult
task to save it, or rather to create a
surplus and wisely invest it. Proba
bly the most gigantic money making
scheme on record in this country is
that conceived hy the Government
at the inception of the war, ami which
resulted in the printing and circtila
lion of $500,000,000 of paper money,
declared to be legal tender, and so
received in most of the States. What
ever may le said about the legality
of that issue, it is generally conceded
that it was a forced loan, rendered
necessary hy the exigencies of the
case. In t'ais emission there was
some $40,000,000 to $50,000,000 frac
tional currency. The war drove sil
ver coins otii of existence, and most
of them went to foreign countries.
Canada was especially burdened with
i hem, so much so that they were at
last received with a discount. To
provide for change, the Government
authorized the use of postage ami
revenue stamps, and on March 3,
!863, Congrtss gave its authority for
the issuance of a po.-tal currency in
the denominations of 5c, 10c, 25 and
50c notes. The maximum amount
wis fixed at $50,000,000, including
the aforesaid stamp. There was
$20,000,000 of this paper issued dur
ing the first year, and more or les
for every subsequent year until 1876.
The largest amount outstanding at
one time appears to have been $45,
881,296. On the 20th April, 1876, a
law was passed authorizing the re
demption of this paper money by
giving in exchange silver Coins of the
same denominations, except half
dimes, the coinage of which was dis
continued in February, 1873. The
amount of fractional paper currency
outstanding oiP the 1st June, 1880,
according to the report of the Seen
tary of the Treasury, was $15,592,,
934. In round numbers, therefore,
about $27,000,000 has bee li ledeemed
and cancelled, and silver coin given
in exchange.
Careful estimates show that the
average life of this fractional curren
cy is fifteen mouths. When 1 lit
amount outstanding was from $40,-
000,000 to $45,000,000, it was found
necessary to print about $36,000,000
annually to replace tatte-ed and torn
notes. The expense attending this
work was reported at $1,410,740 per
annum, exclusive ot the cost of hand
ling. In fact, this it m was adduced
as an argum nt for changing to silver
coin, it being conclusively shown
i hat it was far less expensive to main
tain fractional dollars in silver than
in paper, as the natural abrasion on
silver coin was not over 1 per cent,
in. fifty years. Fractional paper cur
rency was used in this country for
thirteen years, say from March, 1863
to April, 1876. We have never seen
my estimate of the cost of maintain
ing this currency for that period, lie-
yowl the estimate given for line year
after the issue bad reached from
$40,000,000 to $45,000,000. This was
lor. the fiscal year ending June 30,
1875, anel, as be-fore remarked, was
$1,410,746. Calling it only half that
imoiiut, or, in round numbers, $700,-
000 per annum, the cost for thirteen
years would be $9,100,000 for furn
ishing change money tor The people.
But as the expense was met by simp
ly an increase of paper issue-, the real
cost was nominal, except as tiial pa
per is eventually redx tue d in coin.
Some of this fractional currency is
being spnt in almost daily for redemp
tion in a dilapidated condition. Dur
ing the nwiilh of May $11,653 was
redeemed, and since the 1st January,
$81,369. The public debt statement
for June 1st charges the Government
with $15,592,934 outstanding. It
would be a difficult task to find even
$1,000,000 of this am.mnt. The last
report of the National Banks for
April 23, 1880, showed that they had
only $395,738 in fractional currency
United States Treasurer Gilfillau had
only $58,000 on the 1st June. Thus
$453 748 is all that can be traced.
There- may be $100,000 more in the
hands ot the people. It is now Ho
wards of four years sine-e the print
ing ot these notes was stopped. If
the average life of this cwency is
only fifteen mouths, it is easy to ac-
count lor the diflcre'.ice between the
amount known to be in existence and
the amount charged as outstanding
on the Treasury books. We think
that $15,000 000 of the amount owt
stamiing might be safely writ' en off
on profit and loss account. All that
fails to turn up lor redemption is so
much profit to tin- Government. If
ii rust $9,000,000 to print, circulate
and maintain this fractional currency
for thirteen years, ami $15,000,000 is
beyond the power of red emotion
from being worn out, lost, or other
wise destroyed, then the Govi riiineut
has made a cb-an $6,000,000 by the
operation. We doubt whether any
one e lse has made a similar amount
of money in the same interval so
easily and with such little risk and
so little capital. & F. Bulletin.
THE "BOOM BUSINESS.
The Clearing house figures indicate
that the bottom is prety well out of
what is known as the "industrial
boom." It will be greatly to the
ad vantage of this country when we
conclude to go out of the " boom'"
business altogether. There is not
the least necessity for everybody to
run wild when an 'improvement" is
observable in any branch f business.
As a matter of fact, " booms" are
delusive. They lead to unnatural
inflations and reactions. Pretty soon
there will be a number of persons in
various parts ot the country who will
be croaking about hard times once
more. In proof of what they ad
vance, they will be pointed to disas
ters of various kinds that are hap
penning aiouud. But these disasters
will be the natural result of the
' boom" itselt. The parties who
purchased at high figures will not be
able to realize what they gave, and
will have to go under.
But if there hail been no "boom,"
there would have been no reaction.
The increased sale of agricultural
products, re'sultinging from the fail
ure of the crops in Europe, would
h 'Vt infused new life ino various
branches, without creating a fever all
around. Some time will have to
elapse before these speculative ten
dencies are eradicated. They are a
direct consequence ef the paper haze,
which has so long obscured the visum
ot the Eastern people. At this time
it has assumed something of an in
termittent form. Every unusual move
ment appears to be sufficient to recall
ir. But as experience is accumulated,
there will be less ami less liability to
go .ff" "at halfcock." The great
movements of commerce and maim
fact tires are slow and gradual. They
will not take anybody by surprise
who keeps his eyes open.
NEAR PhlLCMATH.
EorToR Gazette : When over the
thermometer shows above 100 in the
shade, as it did in some of the defiles
and ravines of our coast chain if
mountains these last few days, even
this so much talked of "mountain
life" becomes a little burdensome.
The forest assumed the silence of
death ; no bitd can be heard, squirrels
even seem to have lost their activity
of their movements, yes, the foliage
of the trees, hang bended at their
pedicles, as if in mourning; they
seem to salaam to us and to invite us
to join their requiem. If it was not
tor the ever industrious humanity
who became the mountaineers of this
coa..l, it would indeed, be as silent as
in a grave. Not that mountaineers
were obliged altogether te keep their
muscles in activity constantly, but
the advantage of having purer water,
purer air, and less patent medicines,
ditl in all ages and countries, charac
terize the highbinder as more active
than his lowland neighbor.
I drew rather a melancholy pic
lure in the beginning of my letter,
yet we have many precarious things
what make up tor the sufferings on
account of the heat. Our less tim
lered hill are to-da' yet perfectly
covered oyer with those wild, sweet
strawberries; and those who ever
enjoyed in the sport of gathering
them, that is, in the right company,
trau not do otherwise than feel jealous
at ns. Raspberries, blackberries, and
I don't know how many other berries,
drrtW near their maturity also, conse
quently we have "berry time"
almost continually. And, ho! how
delicious tluu little picturesque, sprin
kled inhabitant of our mountain
brooks, that is in taste insurpassihle,
trout or gre-g, looks to our eyes, espe
cially after captured and prepared
for our stomach's sake. Therefore
I say : give me the mountains all
the time1.
Yaquina Bay hns commenced te
draw her share of visitors by this
time. The roads to the coast are
veiled in a thick cloud of dust all the
time, formed by those rolling vehicles,
whose occupants all clamor, onward
to Newport! Oh! why can't we
have the railroad ?
Has Rialto taken his fellow-passen
gers. tluse democratic " Jaeksons,"
safely up Salt River? I hope he left
every one of them there and return
ed alone ; we want and need him
here with ns. Liberal.
Near Philomath, June 27. 1880.
An ingenious tady succeeded in
securing a beautiful ornament and a
plentiful supply of strawberries by
the following plan: Being limited
as to space she took a common flour
barrel, and planted it six inches in
the ground, having previously bored
about fifty inch holes around the
sides. She pnt good rich dirt in the
barrel, set the roots with tlie stalks
out through the holes, filling tip with
dirt as she proceeded until the barrel
was lull. The result is a barrel cov
ered with fruit, and as pretty an or
nament as one could desire.

THE BEST REMEDY
FOB
Diseases of the Throat and Lungs.
AYER&
PECTOR
Diseases of the pulmo
nary urgana are so prev
alent aud fatal, that a
safe and reliable remedy
or them is Invaluable
to every community.
Aver's Cherry Pec
toral is such a remedy,
and no other so emi
nently merits the confi
dence of the public. It
is a scientific combina
tion of the medicinal
principles anil curative
virtues of the finest
drugs, chemically unit
ed, to insure the great
est possible efficiency
and uniformity of re
sults, which enables
physicians as well as invalids to use it with
confidence. It is the most reliable remetly
for diseases of the throat anel lungs that sci
ence has produced. It strikes at the foun
dation of all pulmonary diseases, affording
prompt and certain relief, anel is adapted to
patients of any ajre or either sex. Being
very palatable, the youngest children take
it without difficulty. In the treatment of
ordinary Coughs, Colds, Sore Throat,
Bronchitis, Influenza, Clergyman's
Sore Throat, Asthma, Croup, and Ca
tarrh, the effects of Ayeu's Cherry Pico
tor a r, are magical, and multitudes are an
nually preserved from serious illness by its
timely and faithful use. It should lie kept
at hand in every household, for the pro
tection it affords in sudden attacks. In
Whooping-cough and Consumption
there is no other remedy so efficacious,
soothing, and helpful.
The marvellous cures which Aver's
Cherry Pectoral has effected all over the
world are a sufficient guaranty that it will
continue to produce the best results. An
impartial trial will convince the most scepti
cal of its wonderful curative powers, as well
as of its superiority over all other prepara
tions for pulmonary complaints.
Eminent physicians in all parts of the
country, knowing its composition, recom
mend Aver's Cherry Pectoral to invalids,
and prescrilie it in their practice. The test
of half a century has proved its absolute
certainty to cure all pulmonary complaints
not already beyond the reach of human aid.
