testa THE EUGENE CITY GUARD. ETJUK N'K C1T V. ORKiON." . BAOTBOAY. JULY UL, 1877. BUSINESS. Matters of a penonat character charged for at' regular adver tising rates, to be paid invariably in ad vance. THE CBOVEU INVESTIGATION. The more you. polish s diamond the more. brilliantly it shines; so it is with the character of Senator Grovcr iff this investigation. The' searching investigation urged on by all .the power and haired of the Custom House ring, has resulted hi a com plete vindication of Grover's cliarau ter, and 'demonstrated that he is as innocent of any corruption in his elec tion to the Senate as a new born babe. The rumor, the jnsinustions, the direct charges made by tlu . Republican party through its leaders have all been dispelled, 'and proven to be false, hike fine gold, tho character of Sena tor Grovcr has stood ti.,e most thor ough test and hag come out unscathed. He stated before elected that if he could not bo elected fairly and hon estly, he woud..n.ol have the place, and tbe testimony has established the Jact that he wa.s elected honestly be yond a question. But while tho tea- uraony nas ciear'y esiaunsuea me fact that Senator Grover 'was hod efctlj elected, and free from tho leant atain of corruption ; it has, also, dem onstrated that the leaders of tho Re publican party went to every length to procure ialse testimony against Sen ator Grover. It was proven that they suborned witnesses to commit perju ry in order to have any testimony . at all. The Collector of .Custom at Portland was engaged in the dirty and corrupt work ol buying a wimcs paying his fare and board, and bow much more no one can tell bill' him self. This mnn, Stiles, was the pet of the Custom House ring, the bought villain who. proven by a host of men whose character are above suspicion, to bo a perjured, scoundrel. Stiles wa boirght, paid to swear falso against Senator Grover, and that, too, by some of the leaders of the Rcpiib lican party.- They exhausted all their power to bolster up the character of the villain, but they could' hot' save him; it was demonstrated he com mitted perjury in his testimony against Grover. He Is a lit subject for tho Penitentiary, and his suborn rs should liiud in the same place to seep him company. It was further found that ,the only man who attempted to bribe any member of the Legislature was a lie publican One Armed lfr.ovvii-!iii was trying to bribe Wilson not to vote for Grover. Ho said he was in fun, trying to see what bo could do Republicans are always in fun .when they are caught. That is immensely thin. Another blaok scheme of perjury was unearthed by the .testimony 0011 ceding with it some of the leaders of the Ui-puhliuahs. A certain W. II. Higby, of Corvallis, a fellow the Re publicans nominated and ran for Dis trict Attorney in this distriot at the last election, deliberately cult red into I corrupt scheme of perjury with one K. A. Lake, a black leg and villain, to prevent Senator Grover from getting bis seat as United States Senator. Higby drew an affidavit that he knew was f'also, and procured the man Lake to swear to it by promising him mon ey; sent the allidavit, it scorns, to Washington so that it sheuld be use against Grover to prevent hira get ting his seat. Higby was a shining light in tho Republican parly; mail flaming slump speeches lor the party during the last canvass. Ho ha adscon led from the Stale no doubt gone to make bloody shirt speeche for tho Republicans, where tho mora uiinima is noi no irupiesi. i uese are ugly Tacts agaiost tho Republicans. All tho corruptions Si-ems to be on tneir side in this invesiiga:ion, and taking all the testimony produced be fore the Commission, it reflects more upon the 'epublieans and their party i... if. i i ii than any one else. Wo feel liU onn gratufaiing Seimtor Grover on the unblemished character he has estab lished under I he' most searching in Yestigat ion of his enemies. ' Skssibli The X. Y. JArald, has this bit of true and sensible talk about the Grover Investigation : "Thus far ODly bateh of rumors has been un earthed by the Oregon Senatorial In vestigating Committee. The lest thing that body can do is adjourn and come home. It vu appointed during the Presidential contest last spring out of pure party spite and for the purpose of giving a few gentlemen summer trip oaths (inini of.iL . t - i Gamnmebt. . r. J I HOW SILVEII WAS DIMIOJETIZED. The change of standard front gold and silver to gold, say the Stdidaid, was accompanied by two acts, oeither of which explained the sinister pur pose of tho schemers. Tbe first step in the demonetization of silver was the act of February 12, 1873, 17 U. S. stat, at large, p. 424, "revising and amending the laws relative to tho mints, assay offices and coinage of the United Slate." Section 13 oHIkb act continues ' the standard fixed by the net of January 18, 1837, and sec lion 15 provides that the silver coin of. the United Stales shall be a trade dollar, a half do'lar, or fifty cent piece; a quarter, or twenty-five cent piece, and a dime, or ten ceut piece; and the weight of tho trade dollar shall be 420 grains troy, the weight of the halt dollar 12 grains (gram mes) and tho quarter dollar aud dime shall be respectively one half and one fifth of said half dollar; "and Buid coins shall be a leg.il tender at their nominal value for any amount not ex ceeding five dollars in one payment." A grain, gramme) js equal to 15.431 grains troy.: liy this act the old dol lar, the unit, was dropped andthe trado dollar introduced. The trade dollar contains 378 grains of pure sil ver or CJ grmns moro than the old dollar', which contained 3711 grains of pure silver. , Yet the now dollar was not legal tender for any amount exceeding five dollars, whereas the old dollar was a legal tender without limit. This act did not, however, af fect the old dollar as a legal tender for any and all amounts. It stopped the coinage, but, so far as it was in circulation, the old dollai remained a legal tender for any amount. Next in order is the "act to revise and con solidate the statutes of tho United Stales in forco on the 1st day ot De cember, 1873," approved June 20, 1874. Section 3,511 makes the gold dollar ' nt the standard, weight , of twenty five and eight-tenths grains. the unit of value; and section 3,513 re-euuols,- without change, the provis ions of section 15 of the act of 1873. relating to silver coin. Section 3,514 continues the standard established by the act of January 18, 1837, and sec tion 3,510 prohibits the issue of gol or silver coins other than tho'eofthc lenominaiions, standards and weights sot forth in the title to which the sec lions above referred to belong. Sec lion 3,585 makes the gold coins of the United Slates a legal tender in at payments nt their nominal value;- am section 3,580 provides that "Me silver coins of the United Mate shall be a legal tender lor any amount" not ex ceediug five dollars in any one pay ment.". That wna' tho provision of law which destroyed the old dollar as a legal tender. The provision ol seo lion 3,511, which makes the gold dol lar a unit, is a reproduction from Ra tion 14 of the act ol February, 1878, which first made tho gold dollar tb unit. . OM - 1 1 I i ueso greni anil injurious dinners were made in so quiet nnd sly a man nor that no attention wus ealle I in them. Then greenbacks were the only currency in the Fast, and but little interest was fell in the subject Those who were in the secret, bow over, understood their importance. riiey knew this demonetization would put silver down and gold up. There fore tho money siandard was changed from the double to the single express ly to buil gold lo nude Julian dearer. Already Us ellVot is felt, but its lull force will only be appreciated up-n resumption of sjm-ie payments, with mlotr excluded from the both. When dollars are dearer, the debts payable in tin. m are magnihVd. So the people Jtre plunged fleeper in debt by this means, and they are lo be sqaccr.ed by tho process ol paying in ono tuvUl only. This, too, makes the task ot resumption heavier by depriving us1 of the use of the moro abundant ol the precious metals. Resumption jn gold would be tho success of a trick ot experts ami sola-mors who have presumed upon the ignoranoe ot the general pet pie. Tho Grover Inv'ti;aiioii, mv the Walla Vnlla Matniuin, thus lar has established tho fact that umartinc , 4S- uml r uYk'it J. W. Ncmnith acted foolishly and maJe declaration! which ie it unahle to aiistain by a scintilla of proof. Ilecollfctini tho history of NeHiniih'a election lo t to Senate and the corrupt combination with linker, bo N the- last man ia tim vorld ho thould venture to hiut corruption. Netmith had many fr'u nJe who were iapofed to forget the paat, but hia onhaudtome conduct in regard to the Grover election revives all these reeol t ectiom. ' - J IXDIA.V A. dirpatch to the Oregonian, from Gen. Howard, dated the 14th init, 4vt: By making a forced march I met the enemy at 1. r. m., yesterday, abodt 300 strong, in a deep canyon near the month of the Cotton wood ou the sonth fork of Clearwater. opened fire at once with a howitzer and suc ceeded in starting the Indians from their po sition. Passing around a traverse canyon for a mile and a half, I began' the battle in good earnest, and dismounting formed in ra vines and behind rock barricades, well pre pared. For seven hours every charge we made ground on them. Still at night onr position was not a very good one, at the en emy lay contiguous to my communications and I was short of rations.' This morning, by a determined effort, we regained our spnng of water from tome sharpshooters, Thit afternoon I gave our lines to the care of C pta'n Perry, commanding, the cavalry of Captain Miles, the battalion of infantry, and drew out Captain Miller t battalion of ar nuery acting as luiontry. Just as we were ready to recommence offensive work, Capt, Jackson with a pack train appeared in sight beyond the Iudiosn' position. Miller pushed ont in skirmish order, met the train and es corted it successfully; they had hardly formed a junction with ut when the .artil lery battalion, already lieyond the enemy's flank, made a rapid movement taking Gat ling gum and howitzer along. ' The Indians made one -desperate effort to flank Miller, but failed and then gave way. Everything was tbeu .poshed to the pursuit We .shelled them rapidly from the high bluffs as they escaped from the left bank of the river, and followed them, escaping in every direction, at far as the river, and are now across and going into camp at 6:30 r. M, The losses of the Indians appear to be thir teen killed and quite a large number wounded, We have Capt. Bancroft and Lieut. Williams wounded; also eleven 'enlisted men killed and 24 wounded. Their campt were, aban doned in great haste, leaving much plunder. The Indians fought as well at any troops I ever taw, and so did ours, not one man fail in in duty. I now believe that I am in fine. condition, just at toon at Green appears from Boise, to make thorough work with these Indi ana. They are making for the Snake coun try, and I for concentration at Mount Idaho. Troopt have never done more rapid cam paigning or better fighting than these. . A" dispatch from Walla Walla the 15th mat., says: Yesterday about noon a man named An derson was driven from a fiold, where he .was making hay, into Lewiston, abijut three miles away, by hostile Indians. The whole of Lewiston turned out in hot pursuit, and when the courier left for Una place that city was entirely deserted by able lsxliud men. Ml. Lelund, a prominent citizen of Lewis ton, and a gentleman who has every advan tage of knowing, estimates the loss to settlers in the late unpleasantness with Joseph in the following maimer: Henry Eifry's building on John Day creek; Harry Masou's, Titman's (Jersey), Sam Benedict's and H. C. Browij's on Salmon River below Slate creek, besides several small cabins, have been burned to the ground- Capt Baker's and Jack Manuel's buildings on White Bird. Cpjaj-flallo, 4 Bar ing's, Chapman's, Cearley's,lIouser's, White's, Davis', McDermott's, John Swans', and Hon, S. S. Feun's (delegate to Congress), on Camas prairie: and tome tjiy all north and east of Swartz' farm have been burned also.- The bridge and Jerome's, Wall's, Silverwood's and Deinpster't buildings on the north side of Clearwater, and one building at the Kamia tub-agency have also 1-ieen .burned. This gives twenty-three and three stores and trad., ing houses. It it estimated, by those who claim to know, that at the time Elfrut was killed he had about his prtmises nearly $5,000 infold, dust and bars, which it sup posed to have been taken. Altogether S-JOO.'- 0tV) would not cover the nronertv losses al. ready suffered at the bauds of the Indiana. A dispatch from Kamia, Idaho, dattd Ju-' ly 14th, says: Chief Joseph has moved over the moun tains and has sent a messenger to !eu. How ard, to the effect tli.it he desires to surrender. White Bird, Looking Glass, Tahoolhoolshnte and others, want to get to the buffido coun try in Montana, and will not talk peace. Tliey fired uB Gen. Howard to-day while talking with Josephs messenger, KalkaJ- tuiihiu. - In response to Joseph's message, General Howard tent the following reply: ., ( , "Joseph may make a complete surrender to-morrow morning. My troops will meet him at the ferry. He ami hit people will be treated with justice; their conduct to bo completely investigated by a court comiKiscd of nine of my army, selected by myself. Col M. P. Miller is designated to receive Joseph and arms." The following dispatch was received from Walla Walla last evening: Two hundred mounted volunteer brought down the mail and escorted Mr. Randall ml five children, tl. e widow and the or- pliant of the late Capt ' Randall, fmm'Mount Idaho to Lewiston. Tliey 'report having teen fifteen Indians crossing Cainai lYaine on the 1.1th, towanle Salmon river. The people of Warrens, Idalio, are ont of prtVit ions. A volunteer arrived at Lewiston on the 13th, brings Hbe following newt: Capt MoCortville- with bit volunteers, ami Capt Jackson with hia cavalry, were ordered to proceed down the Clearwater to Dnnweilt furry and croee and OHu'e up behind Joseph, They had pruceeiled five miles thit tire of Kamia, w hen a messenger overtook ' them, from lien.

Captain Bancroft, who was wounded on the 11th inst, in the battle on the Clear water, hat since died from the effects of hit wounds. Diipatch from Gen. Howard, dated Camp M. P. Miller, Kaiuiah, L T., 6 P. M., July 16th, eayt: Majority of hostile Indians have fled by Lolo trail eastward to the' buffalo country. Thirty-five men, women and chil - . ., ' 1"""" "" dren, nave voluntarily surrendered them - selves. He directs information Ut be sent to Gen. Sherman and posts east of Bitter Boot mountains. . On the 16th, IWd Heart, a Nes Perce chief, with sixteen warriors from Joteph't and Looking Glass' bands, with 23 women and children, surrendered themselves to General Howard. ' They were made prieonert and told that they would be tried; that the mnr- derers of white men and outragers of women must be punished; Joseph did not surren der, at he proposed to do, but instead, start ed for the buffalo country wkh other host.le emits. The prisoners had but two guns end no ammunition or supplies. It it thought by some that this party who surrendered got separated from Joseph and wer left without horses, arms and supplies, and were corn pulled to aurreuder. Monday, 16th, all the mep that Gen. Howard could mount wore se'njt iu pursuit of the fleeing hostiles. They have about 24 hours the start of the troops. Prisoners says that Joseph's men are get ting short of ammunition, and that Joseph and White Bird had quarreled, and that they would likely separate their forces. , , TIIE SOL lllKHN BLACKM. We commend the ltllowing extraet from a letter -written by Smalley, tho Southern correspondent of the Kadi' ca N. Y. Tribune to that pap. t, to tbe attention of .the sniveling fanat ics who are si outing over the. ''re sults of the war." This- state of soci ety is iho chief "result of the war," and Northern ignorance, fanatic-ism, viudieliveness and cupidity are solely responsible tor it. Head it, it is good, reliable Hadical authority : Northern people who judge ot the negro race by the few siecimens of iutelligeat colored bar bers and waiters they see at home, always have their theories as to the condition and capabili ties of the race, suddenly unsettled when they study the pure African type of the plantations iguorant, ragged, dirty uUtcks, with counten ances so brutal as to be repulsive, nnd persons and clothing so disgustingly and odoruusfy un clean that their presence is untmpportuble. However enthusiauticallv one niav lavor the principle of equal civil rights, he does not want vi nue in a railway car wun sucn. creatures as these. Fortunately, he is not obliged to, for tliey go into the car provided for them of then own accord, and seem to have no desire for the company of the whites. Occasionally a respect ably dressed colored man or'womun rides in the same car with the white passengers, no one ob jecting. Color prejudice appears to be slowly giving way, but the prejudice against close as sociation with' such dirty, bad-smelling people as are the majority of the plantation negroes may be exacted to continue oi all time. 1 he whites at the houth sav that all nei?m..s Will steal, but thit. is an extravagant generaliza tion, ior every wnite man or wom.-.n who re floats this common saying will, if cpWioned, a lmit to having known colored people who were scrupulously honest. Nevertheless, it cannot be denied that Uie'' blacks as a class are much more given to stealing than the poor ig norant whites. Southern pr.sons and peniten tiaries ore full of negroes, and in more tliuu oue Southern State there is a serious agitation in favor ot reviving the whiiiniuir-ixwt as a imniMh. ment of theft, to relieve the community from the heavy burden ot' stiDDorthn; an mint nria. oners. I have found convincing evidence that the heavy preponderance of blacks over whites in louuty juils una btate rruous is not the re sult of any unfairness on the n.irtof Jud-resnm! juries in the trial of the former. In addition to proofs of this given in former letters, I may cite the Mississippi State Prison, which, under Republican administration, had on mil about one thousand convicts, o61y one-tenth of whom were whites, and now has about two thousand (effect of improved adniinintration of Justice), but shows no okange in the proportion of blacks to whites, ten to one beiug still the ratio. In most of the old slave States a large number, not all, of the convicts are hired out to contractors for work on the railroads, leveea and plantations. The system is not a good one for correction and discipline, but the States are too poor to build prisons have enough in hi.l.l all the negroes guilty of grand larceny. It may well lie doubted, as I said before, if, on the whole, the rnvmes are making any sub stantial progress. They are in the best enndi- while in regiona where the black jHipulation is woii in sections wnere tne whites predominate, linHiruoiiiuiy neaviuHt wcy are liarely one re mm e Irom Afiicau iKvrliannin. They sHak tin KllL'lish laninuure and lirofess a rwlii-ian that (, Tliey siH-ak the I f- nominally I liristian, but in their way of living they are essentially barbarians still. To give theui H)litical asorndency over the whites was the most horribly grotesque experiment ever tried on the science of government The only hie of their getting forward in the path ot eiv ilLtition, with anything like rapidity, lies in the pniapact that the tide of emigratii will be de flected from the Weet to the South, and the whites, thus reinforced liv lnnm nnmlanJ tiers from the NortVru htates and Europe, will become as dominant in numbers aa tW are mrw in intelligence.
