If there is one porsou more than Another that should cry out, "Save me from my friends," it is Mr. M. O, George; for his organ, the Oreonfon, in its'zeal to serve him, published a portion (only four columns of closely printed matter) of his (speech delivered here on Wednesday evening last Had the speech gone unreported his party friends could have made use of those finely spun, oily phrases to his advan tage, and that which rnoro than coun teracted them would not bo brought forward to show the hidden dragon. But it is in black and white, and the author must stand by it In this speech Mr. George places himself squarely and tirnily on the same grounds taken by advanced Re publicans, viz: a strong central govern ment In taking this position Mr. George evidently does so without con sidering its disastrous effect on his election prospects, for knowing Mr George as wo do consider him to bo far too shrewd a politicians to espouse on tho stump that which is calculated to endanger his election. If evidence of this is wanting, see his remarkable reticence on tho high tariff grounds of his party, for no one, better tlian Mr. George, knows that Oregonians as a whole are opposed to protection tariffs, but a tariff' for reve nue only. Mr1. George favors a pro tective tariff and advocates it when m a district where wool growing is a spec ialty, and is bs duhib as a lamb, or else bleats faintly for o tariff revenue when in a district with conGicting interests. Does not Mr. George know or real ize that the very large bulk of tho nat-1 uralizcd citizens of these United States sought this country to escapo the curse of the strong central governments of Europe? In Europe ita beauty(!) is un folded to the greatest possible advan tage in tho proscription which it pur sues against sects or sections holding contrary views from the powers that be. Mr. George's puritanical zeal should not have allowed him to r.o far fight for hia favorite doctrine as to awaken mintnist in the very large mass of voters before they were educated, by tact, to a more thorough belief in the cry of old as now practiced by some nntions in Europe, "that right makes right In his advocacy of strong central government Mr. George very rightly "drew a comparison between our insig nificant army and the powerful armies of European countries." One of the first advances made by strong central governments is to strengthen the army. This is the way by which the strong central 'governments of Europe are sustained; this is the way in which the advocates of a like form of government in this country expect to overafre, when the time arrives, the citizens of this re public. Does .Switzerland require a standing army to keep her the most re publican country in Europe? There, love of liberty and country without persecution has kept the republic intact for ages past and will for time to come, or so long as a standing army is not kept as a menace to the liberty of the people. We have not the patience to attack, at more length this strong central gov fernment idea of the puritanical repre sentative of Che advanced Republicans, and besides, we are satisfied that the intelligence of the mass of voters will not admit of its finding a foothold by which lilrty shall eventually be stung to death by the viper which it warmed into life, iraBl'i Nnl Term. If Grant should be re-elected the people will e another Administration the Baltimore Aeif assert, such as he eave 'the country before.

A ! 4 .' b sflanaaaat ffti1 PaWI t ArJciniatraHoil Credit to Whom It Is Due. Mr Georgo appears very anxious to deprive Gov. Whiteaker of tho credit due him for pressing the bill providing robato on tin, and misrepresent tho his tory of tho matter. Tho bill was intro duced in both houses of Congress, the one in the Senate by Mr. Slater, the other by Mr. Whiteaker in the House, The latter was passed without delay, owing to tho work of Mr. Whiteaker, and not the gentleman who was sent to Washington by tho fishermen as stated by Mr. George, That gentleman played but a small part in the matter. There is no use in Mr. Georgo attempting to belittle Gov. Whiteaker's labors in Con gress, and while we think Mr. George a very pleasant gentleman, and of some! ability, yet we may be allowed to say that he has his full growth, aud that Gov. Whiteaker will continue to im provo even in his advanced years, and liis abilities as a legislator are as good asany lawyer's of no greater caliber than that possessed by Mr. George, and he willfjml that such "nice, tall, slender young men" as himself aro not wanted in Congress. Standard TbtFfople agree. The Republicans of tho United States, the Cincinnati Enquirer thinks, have gotten themselves into an inhar monious position, lhe discussions ot their journals have, if wo take thoin all in, disljarrcd all tho Republican candi dates for the Presidential nomination. The people of the country only need to go so fur as the jierusal of the Repub lican journals of tho country to learn that neither of tho Republican candi fates ought to bo nominated or ought to be elected after nomination. There is plenty of Republican testimony to show that Blaine and Sherman are lad men and corrupt men. There is, to those gentlemen, an uncomfortable amount of evidence as to both of these ointa If we may believe Republicans no republican candidate for the Fresi. deney that has yet been named ought to be uoininnted for tho Presidency by tho Chicago Convention, or elected by the people afterward. Million! For the i'acKic Coast. The house naval affairs committee on the 13th inst. agreed to recommend the passage of Representative Whiteaker's joint resolutions authorizing the secre tary of the navy to appoint a commis sion to investigate and report as to the desirability and expediency of establish ing a navy yard on tho northwest coast Chairman lnttliorne lias pre pared it brief written report in advance of the proposed action, setting forth what growth end importance may be exweted from it The commission is 1 of course to designate what point on the coasts of Oregon and Wai-hing- ton is most suitable. If this navy yard is established on this coast, millions of dollars will lie expended in the work. Workingmen, do you wa .t any such public works on this coast? If you do, vote for Whiteaker. lie bus started the ball rolling, and no one can add as much to its momentum as he can. Democrat. nU Wx four!. The attempt to drag politics into the canvass for Judge of the Supreme Court, is only deserving the advocates of strong central governments, and .hould be frowned down by returning a large majority for the best candidates irrenjiective of party. We have con versed with many of the leading law yers of this city, and each and all say that the prese lit Supreme Court is the ablest and most thoroughly honest that Oregon has ever had. This is evidenc ed by some of their decisions being re produced as authority by law journals at the East, and also the absence of any adverse criticisms of case decided by them, notwithstanding that a so called lawyer sent to two law journals at the East, copies of one of the Court s decisions for unfavorable criticism. Sunday W'lcom. . ... The few sorehead-i who are opposing Judges Kelly, Prim and IMijigT, find their efforts to defeat them of little :i Tl l f ! avail, j u! ii', oi iiiru uiijivouiu uicm . , . , . Jn are nrrV'f " h a character as will e$- ero any infW.r .fiber for pxxf r The Supreme Court. The following opinion from tho Wil Immite Former, as to what a Supreme Court should bo, expresses tho senti ment of every honest man; and th well deserved and sensible compliment to the ability and integrity of Judges Frim and Kelly must find an echo ia tho heart of every truo man in tho State of Oregon. With this avowal from the Ihnncr every truly indepen- Ident or uou-iKith.al paper in the Statu has pronounced in favor of tho Demo erotic nominees, while on the contrary every self-styled, brnzen-lunged "ind depeudent" paper, whose proprietor is owned body and soul by sonio unscru pulous Shylock, has come out for the juveniles. We append tho Farmer ar ticle: , The judiciary of a Stats should nut be subject to tho caprice of politics or the schemes of politicians. If there u any department of government where the voter should judge for himself, in dependency and calmly, it is certainly m the exercise of suttrage for the elec tion of a Supreme tribunal tlmt will be the last resort for determining the rights of tho people. Here, merely po litical consideration should l sccon; dary; experience ami legal attainment purity of life, and excellence of charac ter, should be the qualifications for the judge whoso decision is beyond appeal should bo above reproach in private life and he should be a man in whose hands the people can know that their rights are absolutely safe. We believe that corporations should be protected in every reasonable and proper right, and have no wish that unjust restrictions should lie placed up- on them. Capital and enterprise must be suitably rewarded; but while this ia truo it is also true that corporations need to be close! v watched and held amenable to the highest principles of public policy. , Tho Supremo Court, wore than any other should combine legal experience with perfect probity and puro moral character. Tho man who ignores the claims of society and practices vice and intemperance- in public is not fitted to be a judge, and if such are nominated they should encounter disastrous de feat. The man whose immoral life has been a shame and disgrace to society is not fitted for tho Supremo Bench. Tho Fanner is not in any senso a xirtisnn journal, but it cannot ignore great public questions. These remarks aro suggested by assertions made in a weekly paper that the Farmer opposes Judges Frim and Kelly, who are can didates for tho Supremo Bench. We not only do notopposo them, but sincerely respect them, and have no sympathy with the partisan warfare made upon them. We have no sym pathy with tho party that has placed them in nomination but looking at the question, as we havo stated, from a" standpoint superior to partisan politics, and having hud nn intimate personal acquaintance with both these distin guished gentlemen for many years, we do not hesitate to say that we honor their private lives, respect their expert ience at the bar and their connection, with the Supremo Bench. The indis creet reference to the Farmer by ' tho, journal referred to, has forced us to speak' where otherwise we might have remained silent We are satisfied that decisions already rendered by these gentlemen place them reliably on the siJ.o of the people and that is a good deal in their favor. . When a supreme judge hos wisely, deliberated and adjudged a case, after, a careful consideration, it is,' of course possible for a few disappointed litigants to cry out "briWy" and denounce tho court THEY could not bribe. It looks very much' as if that was being done now. '1 here is scarce another feature of the corning election we should care to par ticularly criticise or condemn, but the election of a Supreme Court is of such, great importance that we have no hesi-j tation in recommending that in this! connection tho fanners of Oregon shall rise aliove partisanship and demand of candidates the legal experience and' personal qualifications that can alone entitle them to popular support - It Baildrd YlieiT. Pennsylvania is usually reckoned a Republican stronghold. It is in real ity the Utica Olttrvcr declares, a close -State. Tlie Democrat have carried it three times during the post seven yean ! If the party -is united in November, and if it received any accessions from the Germans by . reason of Grant's nom ination, it stands a good choice of car rying it this yeaf.
