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superseded the democratic as one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-.. J J "xl." 1
tuna may . uun& proper to give
' his supporters in. this state.
- These' are their due. 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

&AR1&AGE AXD DIVORCE.
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."

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

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. '

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. Ex.
