One rear (whoa ndt paid m advance)... THE REWARD OF LOYALTY. Betrayed by its managers, deci mated by blundering leadership and diminished by 'deliberate trea son, the democratic party of Ore gon come3 oat of the election with Jess than one-lliird its old numeri cal strength, with its organization destroyed, deserted by'its leaders, nd with nothing to show for its struggles and its sufferings but its clear record of loyalty to party principles and its legitimate claim to share the spoils of the national victory, to which it could contrib ute nothing but fidelity and good will. . , , At the last gubernatorial elec tion the democratic party ot Ore gon cast over 33,O0D votes. Its vote for the Cleveland electors last Tuesday will reach barely 13,090. The rest have been stampeded by Pennoyer and Murphy into the populist camp. The democratic party iu Oregon has been betrayed deliberately to build up a people's party. The Weaver vote iu this state will not be les3 than 25,000. It . is relatively as strong as the democrats were before they went to pieces. Indeed, the republican plurality over Weaver will prob ably be less than the republican trturalitv over the democrats at tli rrmrressional election last. June. The people's party has superseded the democratic as one of the two leading parties of Ore gon, relegating the democrats to the limbo of third party obscurity with the prohibitionists, at the very time when the people's party drops out of eight in national af fairs and the democrats achieve complete control of the national government. This should make strange divi sion of the spoils of victory. Those leaders who have taken two-thirds of the democrats into the people'8 party fall heir naturally to control of that organization. Pennoyer should reign undisputed hence forth, as leader of the second party in the state, as autocrat ot tue za, 000 voters now ranged under the Weaver banner in Oregon. What ever glory there may be now, whatever proiit there shall be hereafter in leadership and con trol of the people's party in Ore gon belongs to Pennoyer, Murphy and their, associates. They will call and superintend its conven tions. They will manage its cam paigus. They will reap the fruits of any future defeat ot the repub licans in the state elections. If the republicans shall lose the legis lature two years hence, Pennoyer will go to the senate, and if Her mann and Ellis shall be defeated, their successors will be men who voted for Weaver last Tuesday. That is the reward of their deser tion of Mr. Cleveland in the day of trial. , Those democrats who did not . desert Mr. Cleveland should reap the reward of their steadfast loyalty to democratic principles: of their refusal to vote for Weaver find the Omaha platform, in the face of iusidious temptation. They should receive whatever share may be due to Oregon of the spoils of -the national victory. They . are lew, out . they are enough to Jill the federal offices in Oregon and what other places Mr. Cleve- "' T-..

They are all that is left of the democratic r party m -.this state, and the demo cratic. party v is about to begin distribution of lederal patronage. 1 be men who voted for Cleve land would ask nothing of Weaver Jf he were elected president. The . men Who voted for Weaver have no right to expect anything of Cleveland. .1 here is uo fear that Governor Pennoyer will commit eucli . an impropriety. lie will hold himselt as sternly aloof from . the democratic president as he 1 r it. j . iias irom uie democratic ex -president. He will indorse no appli cation for office to the man he did Jus ritmost to defeat. : All self-re specting Weaver democrats should imitate bim. Oregonian.

On the 15th inst. at Portland, Or., before the state bar associa tion, a summary of all county re ports was read, showing that dur ing 1891 there were 2,110 marri ages celebrated in Oregon and 58 divorces granted, or abcfut five marriages to one divorce, uon- necticut has about 11 marriages to divorce; Massachusetts, 30; Ohio, 20 1 Rhode Island, 11; Ver mont, 16; New Hampshire, 10; Maryland, 62 ; Kansas,k 17 ; Wis consin, 21. It is. worth while to compare these figures with those of the old world. Belgium. : averared 181 marriages to one divorce ; France, 13S marriages to 46 ; England, 718. In some years Catholic' Ireland averages over 20,000 marriages-to one divorce; Berlin, in 1885, had 19 marriages to one divorce, while Stockholm for the same year had 34 to 1. - In- 18S5 there were 470 marriages in Russia to one divorce; in Switzerland, 22; m iselgium, 138; in Prussia, 59. Italy grants her wedded sufferers uo absolute divorce. No individual in the United States has taken a more active in terest in the establishment of than Albert A. Tape, of Boston. He has devoted much valuable time and made a practical study of the methods to secure the best roadways.- Mr. Pape is sending out petitions to college presidents, railroad presidents, postmasters and others, requesting them to sign the same, and, also, aid in getting others to sign the said pe titions, asking that there be found ed in the city of Washington road department, an institute of road and a permanent road exhibit, and- a comprehen sive exhibit of road construction and maintenance at the world's Columbian exposition in Chicago. Good, roads are a matter of vital importance to the people of Ore gon, as well as the entire country in general, aad people should in terest themselves in asking the the government to maintain a road department similar to the agricul tural department. No part of the country feels -a more urgent need for improvement: in roads than Oregon, and our people should aid in impressing the gov ernment with the paramount, im portance of doing practical work to attain . the desired end. " Good thoroughfares are a sure index of higher civilization and conse quent prosperity, and a united effort iu tlu3 direction can' only be productive of the best results. A Washington dispatch speaks right out in meeting as follows, and the hungry democrats smile as they contemplate its full mean ing: : ''Democrats who profess to know say that Cleveland will not be nearly so lenient as he was in 1885 in the removal of republican office holders and the appointment of democrats a3 their successors. With the exception of the . classi fied service, which is under the control of the civil service com mission, a clean sweep will be made as rapidly as possible of all republican office holders. Little attention will be paid to the -so- called tenure-of-office which al lows a republican or a .democrat to serve out his full term before his successor can be appointed." A special train of twenty cars of walnuts " has been shipped from Lo3 Angeles. Nearly 20,000 pounds of walnuts were placed in each car; -and the estimated value of each carload is about $2000. This is the first train of this char acter which has been - shipped across the '-continent'and the oc casion is, an interesting one -to shippers of California products. The huts are the products of - the Los Nietos orchards.

The downfall of thousands of our youth is directly traceable- to bad literature.

W DEMOCRATIC SLATE.. Now that republican office hold ers will be expected to retire after the 4Xh of March next, it is sur mised Corvallis democrats will soon have their slate made up for federal appointments. The fact will be forgotten that the Corval- Jlis precincts did not. vote for tlie Weaver electors, and there will be several applications for the bil let of collector of customs at Ya quina bay; however, the position of health officer will e given to a restdeni on that side of the moun tains to promote harmony in the ranks of the democracy whenJthey hold their county convention in 1894. H. G. Davis will probably expect to get the appointment of register of One of the U. S. land offices in eastern Oregon, while Hon; S. T. Jeffreys will be offered the receivership of the Oregon City land office.. There will be several quiet consultations as to who will get the Corvallis post- office, and Barney .Martin will probably get an appointment in the internal revenue department of this district as a reward for his zeal in getting up jubilation excur sions and tne way. lie writes up victorious campaign poetry. las uaicacr) lrioune Unas a secondary cause of Cleveland's election in the fact that of the new votes cast in the northdn states, by a careful estimate 400,000 were those of men who have become naturalized since 1888 and voted for Cleveland, to not more than 50,000 who voted for llarrisou. There were naturalized" this fall in the city of New York 80,000 foreigners and 15,000 in Brooklyn and 5,000 in the rest of the state. Nine-tenths of .these persons, or 54,000, voted for Cleveland, and about C000 for Harrison. This gave him his majority in - the state. Thirty thousand men have been naturalized in Cook county since the early mouths of 1891. Five- sixths of these, or 25,000, voted for Cleveland and the democratic candidates. . This, - the Tribune thinks, makes it clear where Cleve laud got his majorities. The re publican party has been accused of temptiug hordes of foreigners to this country by the bait of, high wages and easily gained property. If so, it appears to have nursed a viper in its bosom. Oregonian. One of the greatest regrets a citi zen of the Pacific coast must feel at the outcome of the election is the entrance into power of an ad ministration hostile in sentiment to the Nicaragua canal as a nation a! enterprise. The construction of that great waterway - tinder the auspices of the government would do more for this region "than any other project or policy ever mooted, but the fiat has gone forth, and a congress has , been 'elected from which, nothing in this direction may be expected, and a president who has already given the enter prise a heavy blow .by defeating the treaty with Nicaragua. It is a positive and distinct losa to every person living West of the Rocky mountains. Portland Chronicle. - A London cablegram states that the talk formerly indulged in about the futility of the interna tional . moii3tary - congress is no loncer heard, and the belief is srowinlr that the conference will accomplish ... important results There whs a. great deal of partisan criticism of the project in the United State when it . was first made public, but - the trend of events has led the-people to see that it is the only craclicaLplan of solving the 6ilver problem. ' No one nation can re habilitate' silver, The world must unite upon, one plan, if the white metal is ever to be more than the material for sub sidiary coinage. ' Chauncey M.

The reasons given for the repub lican defeat Tuesday are various and cover considerable ground The most convincing one is, the Cleveland electors polled : more votes than those on the Harrison ticket.
