OFFIC'iAL PAPER OF THE STATE
OFFICIAL PAPER FOR BENTON COUNTY
Corvallis, Nov. 19, '80.
B. CARTER,
IN SU3MISSI3N.
The test of a man's true character
is the way in which he puts up with
things. Any man can be brave ami
cheerful in sunshine, when no cloud
crosses his path. But let him see dis
aster looming in front; let him have
to sit, as the Turks say, with the
linger of patience on the lip of
silence ; let him find cherished pos
sessions trembling and passing away,
then is the time for the real grit to
show. Strive, of course he will ;
light, of course he will, (if he be good
lor anything.) so long as effort can
avert what be believes is disaster;
but when he has struggled bravely
and has dono his level best, and yet
finds his efforts fruitless and that
Nature and circumstances are too
strong for him, then comes the test.
These observation apply to indivi
duals, and to parties, and to localities,
loo.
The great Democratic pirty has
met a crushing defeat such an one
as were it an actual army would drive
it pell mell into a hasty crowd of
fugitives, arms lost, colors gone, ar
tillery taken, camp in the victors'
bauds, seeking vainly to keep cohe
sion and organization together. Let
us see how the chiefs bear themselves
in this stress. How does General
Hancock take it ? Like the true sol
dier that he is, "The election is oyer,"
he says, " and it would be folly to
reopen it." The Bulletin, Republi
can paper though it be, says of him
this week, "There is nothing of the
trickster in the composition of Gen
eral Hancock. He is as manly in his
acts as in his utterances, as brave on
the political field as on that of battle.
He may commit blunders in both
arenas, but they are nevertheless
those not dictated by unworthy
motives. He abides by the result of
the election with a sincerity that is
unselfish and patriotic."
Contrast this conduct with the
miserable exhibition of those " trick
sters" by whom the Democratic
cause was so utterly broken. See
Chairman Barnum, ad Messrs. Kelly
& Co. Mark their mutual abuse ;
see how each one accuses the other of
spilling the milk, and how loth they
are to recoguize that the milk is
spilt.
Read, then, the respectable Demo
cratic press and see how, with one ac
cord, they agree to recognize results
fairly, and how they repudiate this
contemptible cry of fraud, fraud,
New York is lost by fraud.
Notice the strains of those organs
that were loudest and deepest in
their scurrility whilst the contest was
in progress. Can they bear defeat ?
Is there one particle of greatness in
their composition ? See how they
attempt still to impose on their de
luded readers ; how they try to be
little the results gained ; how they
catch at every straw blown them by
Chairman Barnum and his crew.
Now that all is over the lesson
will not be lost on our Democratic
friends, and through them our com
mon country will be the gainer if
we all learu that great causes are
never won by trickery, fraud, mis
representation, abuse, or the unscru
pulous use of the money-bag ,r
barrel.
We were never bo confident of re
sults as when we saw the sluice-gates
of lying opened on General Garfield
after his selection at Chicago. To see
adversaries driven to use such wea
pons would inspire the weakest war
rior with courage.
We may draw similar encourage
ment in the railroad war now being
waged with the O. R. & N. Company
and their Portland backers. .
Just such means are employed as
we have seen recoil with fatal effect
on those who used them in the politi
cal fight. Just such results will most
surely follow.
And as we counsel now modera
tion in victory, and the speedy allay
ing of the burning feelings drawn
forth by the vehemence of the politi
cal fight, and the cultivation of the
friendliest possible feelings towards
onr defeated Democratic brethren, so,
after our local fight is won, and our
emancipation from bondage achieved,
shall we strive to inculcate friendli
ness and brotherly love towards am
bitious and shall we say selfish
Portland. But not till then.
SOUTHERN SENTIMENT.
Commenting on the result of the
election the Atlanta, Georgia, Con
stitution says: "It is the result of a
series of blunders, beginning with
the Potter Committee and ending
with the surrender of the party to
the selfish whims of an element which
had John Kelly as its carumaudhig
general. It would appear that the
line'of sectionalism has been sharply
drawn by the voters of the North,
but there is nothing depressing in this
fact. We are willing that the North
should draw the sectional line in poli
tics if the South be permitted to draw
a line with regard to the progress
and improvement of their conditions
and forces which make a people hap
py in their fields, their workshops
and their homes. We have a pros
perous future before us, and to this
we should look intently. We have
the cause of public education to pro
mole and the weltaie of a great and
growing section to foster. The South
expelled little more from General
Hancock's administration than it will
ask from General Garfield's. We
want nothing more than simple, ex
act, absolute justice. If the new
President owes nothing to the South,
he at least owes something to the
country; and we shall be glad to see
him cancel the debt by giving us an
administration as fair, just and clean
as that of Mr. Hayes."
A WAIL FROM NASBY.
The Lord is agin the democracy.
In vain we prayed for short crops,
and in vain our supplicaehens went
up for rinderpest and hoof rot among
the cattle on a thousand hills.
In vain we implored for a potato
rot and potato bugs, or anythihg
that would distress the Yank and
meke him howl for a change.
L, the more we prayed for dis
tress the more there wuz prosperity.
The crops were good and the
prices therefor bully, and what kin a
dimekrat do when there is no trouble.
Wo preached hard times and thev
shook jrold and silver under our
noses.
We said to the laborer, lo, you are
oppressed, ami he jeered, showin uv
us a savins' bank book.
The smoke uv the furnace wuz to
us the smoke of the torment.
The clang uv hammers and the
weeze uv the engine wuz our funeral
knell.
We sent Blackburn and other
brigadeers to the north, but the peo
ple put their tongues in their cheeks
and wagged their heads in derision.
We sed lo; we hev a voonyuri sol-
jer for our candidate.
And they ansered, sayin, verily he
hez changed his yooniform.
We offered 'em free trade and they
answered, sayin, give us tariff.
We offered 'em soft money, but
they replied, sayin, no soft money in
ourn.
We offered lo take the government
off their hands, but they sed it wuz
doin ver3f well now, thank yoo.
Gone is the post offices, and the
custom houses shel never know us
agin.
Gone is the hope uv penshuns and
the payment uv our war claims.
Toledo Blade.
HOW HE RECEIVED THE NEWS.
On the afternoon of the 3d a
meeting of Republicans in Chicker
ing Hall, New York City, sent this
message to General Garfield : " James
A. Garfield Republicans of New
York City assembled in meeting at
Chickering Hall, send their most
hearty congratulations to the Presi
dent-elect, and assure him of the
handsome majority in the Slate ot
over 40,000. Down goes ' 329.' "
From this time the President-elect
felt more free to express himself. He
said, after one of the most favorable
dispatches : " Gentlemen, this result
means three things. First, that the
American people believe in the na
tionality of the government ; Second.
that.lhey believe in a good, honest,
healthy financial policy ; Third, that
they are determined not to narrow
and disgrace the sphere of American
politics by endorsing a campaign of
personal aouse.
The tide ot emigration still con
tinues to run this way. News from
Eastern States say that the emigra
tion to Oregon and Washington in
the next year will be enormous.
0RRG0N AND CALIFORNIA WHEAT.
The shipping houses of Portland have
sample bas. sent them from the San Fran
cisco Produce exchange, of the way wheat
is firadert in that market the present year.
The samples are number one, two and
three, and the editor of the Farmer is
struck with the fact that the best shipping
wneai, mar&eu ao. 1, is not nearly so good
an article as the average clean white wheat
of the Willamete valle. In the California
No. 1 there is a proportion of shriveled
grain and some cheat and oats, while onr
average valley wheat is plump and clean if
it has passed through a well known ware
house. It really seems then that with the
quality of Oregon valley wheat abuve the
average, there should be a price o:':ered for
it above what is paid for California No. 1,
because our wheat is really worth much
more, or there is no trust to be put in ap
y f i - . i .
pea ranees, uur oesi is certainly equal to
California gilt edge milling wheat, which is
quoted as high as-$l 52J per cental, and
vet the quotations for our valley wheat are
31 421 45 per cental only. Astorian.
The assessment roll of Umatilla

A MODEL FUfJESAL ORATION.
A Chicago Tribune 3poci.1l from Hartford,
Conn., gives Mark Twain's funeral oration
over the democratic party to an overflowing
amheuoe. Coming, as it did, immediately
after the addresses by two clergymen, the
audience did not at first comprehend its
humor. The following is the address:
There are occasions which are so solemn,
so weighted with the deep concerns of life,
that every licensed jester mii3fc lay aside his
cap and bells and renumber that he is a man
aud a mortal; that even his light butterfly
career of folly has its serious seasons and he
cannot ilee them or ignore them Such a
time, my friends, ia this, for we are in the
ner presence of one who is a paisenger from
this life, one whom we have known long and
well, but shall know no more forever. About
the couch of him who was stricken are gath
ered those who hold him dear and who
await on the coming of a great sorrow. The
breathing is faint and grows fainter. His
voice becomes a whisper. I cannot record
the languishing ebb and flow of the rem
nant of hi3 life. His lips are pallid, and
the froth of devastation gathers upon them.
His face is drawn, his cheeks are sunken,
his form is still, his feet are ice, his eye is
vacant, he picks at the coverlet, he babbles
about the green fields, the death rattle is in
his throat, his time is at hand. Every breeze
that conies to us out of the distance, near
and far, and from every segment of the wide
horizon, is heavy with voices of mourning
and sornuv accomplished; and the burden
of the mourning is that the aged and
stricken democratic party is dying; and the
burden of the lament will be: " The mighty
is falleu, the democratic party is dead !
Who and vvhat is he that is soon to be dead ?
A footsore, political wanderer, a political
tramp, an itinerant poor actor, familiar with
many disguises, a butcher of many parts.
In the north he played "Protection and
Hard Money," in the west he played " Pro
tection," "Free Trade," "Hard Money"
aud " Soft Money, " changing the parts ac
cording to the exegencies of the times. In
the south he played "Tariff for Kevenue ;"
in the north aud west. "The Apostle of
Freedom ;" in the south, "The Assassin of
Freedom;" aud mouthed the sacred shib
boleths of liberty with cruel and bloody
lips. His latest and final appearance upon
the natiou's stage was "Forgery," a f.iree
in which he was assisted by the whole
strength of the company. It was a poor
piece, indifferently played, and so it failed,
and he was hissed and abused ; but he lies
low, and blame ami praise arc aiike to him.
The charitable will spare the one, the judi
cious will reserve the other. Friends, this
is 110 time for jest and levity, but a time for
bended forms and uncovered heads, for all
stand in the hkj presence of majestic death,
a momentous and memorable death, a gxisiy
and awful death, for it is death from -which
there is no resurrection. Heaven bless us,
one and all ! Heaven temper the blow to
the afflicted family! Heaven grant them a
change of heart and a better life!
THE GREAT RIVER GF ALASKA.
Alaskan explorers report one of the
largest rivers in the world the Yukon as
navigable for-steamers 2,500 miles, and 500
miles from its mouth it receives a very large
navigable tribuflry. The basin formed by
the confluence is twenty-iour miles wide.
The Yukon is nearly as large as the Missis
sippi. Indians are-e very where; the war be
tween the tribes is continuous. There is
snow for six months, and, without roads,
dog-sledges rind good traveling. Game
abounds, and Indians have an easy life.
From seven to nine dogs make a team, the
old one byng the leafier. The driver has 10
watch this dog. If it gets on the scent of
game it is off, and the whole team is de
moralized. Off they scamper through the
woods and thickets, npsettina the load,
smashing the sled, tearing the harness aud
giving the driver days of hunting to restore
the status quo. So vast a country, traversed
by navigable waters, will tempt the restless
and speculative adventurers to explore it.
It is a significant circumstance that
of the 457,557 immigrants who came
to the United States during the year
ending with last Junf, nearly 100,000
were from the British North Ameri
can provinces. Canada sends us
more immigrants than any European
country, except Great Britain and
Ireland, and nearly a third as many
as all Europe. Of the arrivals 346,
747 were from Europe, 101,681 from
America W3& 5,839 from Asia,
An Open Letter. The following letter
explains itself: "Editor Standard: On
returning from Port Orford iny attention
was called to a report of my remarks at
Lebanon, stating that I ' called Gen. Han
cock a traitor,' and. that he was ' no more to
be recognized as a follow American citizen
than Benedict Arnold,' and that ' the two
men should be classed together on the pages
of history - to be read in contempt, ' "etc.
Had I ever entertained such sentiments,
although never having expressed them, I
should remain silent, but as such views are
not and never have been entertained or in
dorsed by me, much less expressed, will you
please give the denial as much publicity as
you did the report. " Respectfully yours,
M. C. George.
A grand Indian pollach has been
in progress on Squaxon island, a few
miles below Olympia, this week.
Some 1000 Indians assembled there,
making indiscriminate presents of
blankets, flour, clothiug, etc., to each
other. A number of Olympians, in
cluding Governor Newell and his
family, went dowu to witness the ex
ercises. The unearthly veils of the
joyous savages could be heard for
miles around.

Hair Vigor
FOR RESTORING 'CRAY HAIR TO ITS
NATUHAL VITALITY AMD CCL0R.
It i3 a most agreeable drrssiiuj, which
is at once harmless and effectual, for pre
serving the bair. It restores, willi the
gloss and freshness of youth, faded or gray,
light, and red hair, to a rich brown, or deep
black, as may be desired. By its use thin
hair is thickened, and baldness of leu
though not always cured. It checks falling
of the hair immediately, and causes a new
growth in all cases where the glands are
not decayed; while to brashy, weak, or
otherwise diseased hair, it imparts vitality
and strength, aud renders it pliable.
The Vicon cleanses the scalp, cures and
prevents the formation of dandruff; and,
by its cooling, stimulating, and soothing
properties, it heals most if not all of the
humors and diseases peculiar to the scalp,
keeping it cool, clean, and soft, under
which conditions diseases of the scalp and
hair are impossible.
As a Dressing for Ladies' Hair,
The Vigok is incomparable. It is color
less, contains neither oil nor dye, and will
not soil white cambric. It imparts an
agreeable and lasting perfume, and as an
article for the toilet it is economical and
unsurpassed in its excellence.
