Politics In Washington County.
The political situation in this coun
ty is mixed. Patched and piebald
don't describe it. Republicans, In
dependents and Democrats growl
inside their own pet circles like for
ty tom-cats on a moonlight "jambo
ree," or mercilessly pelt I heir oppo
nents with sharp quillets of the
brain. It is rich. Vfe are growing
fat as Falstafifon the fun. Here are
Independents on the Republican
ticket who are trying to read their
titles "straight" to mansions in the
Republican skies, with a lone Mitch
ell apologist on the same ticket who
in the general disgust for his adulter
ous master turns Judas; and Demo
crats on the Independent ticket who,
as Republicans Democrats assert ,have
been instruments for Holladay, and
would like to be tools for Grover,
and who want to split the county,
and one of whom was a candidate on
tho Rc publico-Democratic fusion
ticket two years ago. Such another
Pandora's box of inconsistencies and
absurdities was never known. Eat
dirtl Why, either ticket would choke
a brick -yard dirt-mill to swallow it
all. About the only consistent thing
in all of it is that Hughes and
Humphreys favor opposite tickets!
Porter, Sweek and Chenette are mad
at the entire "caboodle." Colonel
Cornelius says nothing but, like the
fellow who was kicked down stairs,
does a deal of thinking. And Cave,
-whoa month ago was red-hot for the
nomination of Bowlby or Humph
reys for Senator, is so "straight" now
that, compared with him, Mitchell is
as crooked as Babcock's whisky.
But there are some good men on
- both tickets and we hope they will
be elected. The people- will soon
have an opportunity tohearfiom the
opposing candidates and judge for
themselves.
Grant in His Cups.
It was to be expected. Tlie tele
graphic dispatches stating that Grant
has taken to his cups in his difficul
ties, though it does shock, does not
surprise any one. A man who was
intemperate from his early youth,
whose associations were low and im
moral, whose instincts were as low
as his associations, and whose only
ambition lay in fast horses and
bull dogs in his enps would im
pulsively act just as Grant has done.
And that he has appointed and kept
around him such villains as Babcock,
Shepherd, Belknap, Harrington,
etc., was entirely consistent with his
character. While we do not believe
that he has shared any of the profits
of the "swag" or directed the opera
tions of the thieves and pub.ic plun
derers that swarm in every depart
ment and hold possession of the
White House, yet he is not such a
fool but that he has long known
of their villainies and indirectly as
sisted them; or if he has been igno
rant of their crimes and corrupt man
agement, it is only explainable on
the supposition that he has been
drunk, as the dispatches state, and
for charity's sake and the smutched
honor of the Nation, we would
prefer to believe this supposition.
Such is the consequence of electing
immoral men to office.
Independent Appointments.
Last Monday the Independent
county central committee appointed
the following candidates to fill va
cancies made itt the ticket by declina
tions: John Richardson for State
Senator; T. B. Handley for Repre
sentative; Dr. F. A. Bailey for Co.
School Superintendent. It is our
opinion that the ticket would have
been much stronger by nominating
Mr. Handley for State Senator.
State Tickets.
The Republicans, both Independ
ent and "straight, " are well satisfied
with Williams, and the Democrats,
though many of them do not like
Lane, will generally support him
as it will be a square fight. The In
dependents in this quarter will swal
low the Republican electoral ticket,
though a bitter i ill, if Bristow, or
Blaine, or both, be behind it.
Last Wednesday, May 3d, the Sa
lem Woolen mills were destroyed
by fire. The manufactory was the
property of Wm. Griswold, and was
Talued at $12 5,000. There was $7,
500 insurance on the buildings and
machinery and $75,000 on the mate
rial in course of manufacture. The
loss of these mills is a great one to
the State.
Grantism Approaching Its End
Some individual in any Adminis
tration may yield to temptation, but
public opinion has been making that
excuse very long and patiently for
the Adinistration. When it was
known that somebody about the
White House held scandalous rela
tions with Corbin, that was passed
as an exception. Some body dis
graced the party in the Leet and
Stocking affair, in the seleetion of
Casey and Murphy, in the sale of
arms to the French, in the Santo
Domingo aiTair, in the transactions
of Bout well, Richardson, andAker
raan, in the Secor business, and in
the Chorpenning claim; but these a
patient, public opinion called excep
tions. Attorney-General Williams
rode in a landaulet, but that was an
exception. Secretary Delano and
his son John caused a shameful scan
dal, but that was an exception.
Secretary Llobeson was accused, but
men thought that partisan hatred
might have prompted the accusation,
and that if he was guilty that was an
exception. The district of Colum
bia was outrageously robbed, but
when Shepherd was appointed a
Commissioner, and Safe-burglary
Harrington met the President as a
welcome guest, men called these ex
ceptions. Minister Schenck drags
the flag of tho United States through
I lie gutters of London in order to
escape from a British Court, but
that was an exception. McDonald
wenjtto jail, a deceased but trusted
friend of the President was named
as a party in a plundering conspira
cy, and the President's private Sec
retary was indicted, and was saved
from the pennitentiary only by the
evidence of the President, and a
most extraordinary order from the
Attorney General preventing evi
dence for the Government; but these
it was charitably said were excep
tions. Then the private Secretary,
thus acquitted, visits the convict
McDonald in his cell, and returns to
announce to the Senate of the Uni
ted States "a message from the
President" even while these words
from lips so long silent in the priso
ner's dock, were yet echoing through
the Senate Chamber, and Senators
were crowding to congratulate him
upon his escape from State's prison,
in another room in tho Capitol a
witness was presenting under oath
and with unanswerable documentary
evidence, the proof that the Secre
tary of War had for years been sell-
ing tne oinces in nis aepaiimeni.
No, Repuublicans! this will not bo
passed as an exceptional case.
Grantism has come to judgment at
last. This infamous abuso of the
public service for personal and par
tisan gain has borne its inevitable
fruits. Xrw York 2'ribune, March

A Good Nomination.
The nomination of Hon. R. Stott
of Multnomah ccunty for Prosecu
ting Attorney for this District meets
with general satisfaction in this
county. He will poll the entire vote
of both wings of the Republican par
ty and will receive a good many
Democratic votes besides. He is
a native of Washington county
was raised and educated right here
among us, and knows our wants and
will work for our interests. He was
elected to the Legislature the last
election on the People's ticket in
Multnomah and assisted materially
in shaping and securing reform leg
islation whereby many thousands of
dollars were saved to Washington
county and the Stata. His Demo
cratic competitor, Fred Strong,
Esq., is a worthy young man to
whom we have no objection, but
Mr. Stott has been so closely identi
fied with our interests in the past
that we feel safe in giving him our en
tire support. He has received a colle
giate education, and has been for
several years in the practice of law
in Yamhill and Multnomah counties,
and will make an efficient Prosecu
ting Attorney. He will carry this
county by at least 300 majority.
Rhode Island Election.
The Rhode Island election resulted
in the choice of Addeman, Republi
can candidate for Secretary of State,
supported by the Prohibitonists, by
11,000 majority. There was no choice
for Governor and Lieutenant Gover
nor by the people. Lippett, .Repub
lican, will probably be re-elected by
the legislature, which Li five-sixths
Republican, and is understood to be
largely in favor of the re-election of
Anthony as Senator. The following
is an approximate for Governor:
Lippett 8,212; Howard Prohibition
ist, 6,227; Beach, Democrat, 3,472.
The House contains 03 Repeblicans
and 9 Democrats; the Senate 27 Re
publicans and 9 Democrats. Exchange.
REPUBLICAN STATE CONVENTION.
Last Thursday the Republican
State Convention assembled in Port
land, and organized by electing Hon.
Cary Johnson president and Joseph
bimon secretary. The following
platform was adopted:
The Republican party of Oregon, in con
vention assembled, mike this declaration
of its principles and policy:
Jitsvlved, That in this Centennial year of
Amesican Independence we again affirm onr
devotion to those fundamental principles
upon which the Republic and the Republi
can party were founded. A molly these are
1. Unswerving fidelity to the constitution
and the perpetuity of the Union.
2. The preservation of the liberties and
equal rights of all citizens throughout the
nation, and the impartial administration of
the laws in every part of the country, for the
protection and enforcement of public and
private rights and the punishment of vio
olence and crime.
3. Pure and economical administration
of every department of the government.
State and National, and we pledge the
support of the Republican party to all
measures honestly proposed und wisely de
signed to promote the moral and material
prosperity of the people.
4. That a well instructed people alone
can be permauently free, it is therefore es
sential that the public school system shall
be maintained in order that every child may
receive such education as will fit him for
useful citizenship, and we are unalterably
opposed to any division of public school
money for any purpose whatever.
5. That while we are in favor of revenue
for tho support of the general government
by duties on imports, sound policy requires
such adjustment of these imposts as to en
courage the development of the industrial
interests cf the whole country, and we com
mend that policy of national exchange
which secures to the working man liberal
al wages, to agriculture remunerative prices,
to mechanics and manufacturers an ade
quate reward for their skill, labor and en
terpnse, and to the nation commercial pros
perity and independence.
G. That the best interests of all citizens
of every condition and pursuit imperative
ly demand the speediest return to a specie
basis of values and currency, and we hail
with gratification the act of a Republican
Congress definitely providing for that end.
7. That we are in favor of untiring pros
ecution and punishment of public fraud and
crime, straw-bidding and peculation iu of
fice, wherever existing, and we repeat the
injunction, "Let no guilty man escape."
8, We demand that our national candi
dates shall be men of tried integrity, who
will carry out this great policy of reform,
and preserve inviolate the great results of
the war.
9. We arraign the present State adminis
tration and its supporters as corrupt and
profligate. They have robbed the common
school fund; they have been guilty of par
ty legislation; they have squandered our
patrimony in lands, and heaied upon us a
debt of over $300,000 in direct violation of
the constitution.

didate for the XLV Congress.

The Democratic Platform-
The following is the platform
adopted by the Democratic State
conventoin held at Salem on the
2G, ult.
Tlie Dmicrrari of Oregon in Convention as
sembled reafirms the platform of principles
adopted at the last Democratic State con
vention, and adopted the following in ad
dition to the same, to wit:
7fc.Ww, That the action of the Demo
cratic House of Representatives of the Uni
ted States, in ferreting out corruption and
bringing criminals to justice, merits the
commendation of every true patriot.
Resolred. That the large influx of Chinese
immigration to the States of the Facific
Coast of America, has been a curse to the
country; that the Chinese are a people that
are not, and can never be brought to have
any interest consistent with the welfare and
prosperity of our Government or its institu
tions; and that we pledge onrselves to use
our best endeavors for the adoption of such
measures as will prevent and cure this grow
ing evil.
Resolved, That our inestimable system of
common schools, and our no less valuable
schemes of religious toleration, are the
workmanship of Democratic hands, and the
fruits of Democratic policy; that it is the ex
clusive right and duty of the State to pro
vide for the education of its children; and
it having been a principle established in
the formation of our State Constitution
that no public funds of any class should be
used far sectarian schools or societies we de
clare our faithful adherence to this principle
and oppose any invasion o it, that is the
inalienable right of every citizen to worship
God according to the dictates of his own
conscience, and no political disabilities
should be incurred by reason of religious
belief; and while e defend these principles
and institutions to the fullest extent, we dep
precate all attempts to raise sectarian is
sues as utterly uncalled for and reprehen
sible and meriting the emphatic condem
nation of every good citizen.

TELEGBAPHIC SUMMARY.
Astioch, Cal., May 1. A fire oc
cured here which was the culmina
tion of an excitement which has been
growing since last Saturday, when
one of our doctors informed various
parties that several boys had visited
a Chinese house of prostitution on
the outskirts of the town and were
now, in consequence, under his treat
ment. In a short time their parents
heard of it and extreme measures
were talked of, but better counsel
prevailed. On Saturday morning
thirty-five or forty citizens proceeded
to the Chinese dens and notified them
to leave town before 3 o'clock, or
trouble would ensue. This all prom
ised to do, and several of them start
ed up the river in a sail-boat for Stock
ton and others taking the steamer for
San Francisco. Among the latter
was one woman who was nearly gone
with disease. A boss Chinaman was
sent with them, but much against
his will, it required tho efforts of two
men to get him cn the boat. It be
ing supposed that the woman had
left for good, the excitement subsi
ded. However, on Saturday after
noon, it was reported that the wom
an who had started for Stockton
had returned which revived the ex
citement of Saturday but nothing oc
cured to break the quiet of the Sab
bath until about 8 P. M., when aery
of fire was raised, aud it was soon
apparent that action had been taken.
Chinatown was on fire, and a crowd
of curious lookers-ou assembled, to
gether with the fire company, but
little was done to stay the progress
of the fire, and all but two of the
buildings were destroyed the in
mates fleeing terror stricken. How
the fire was started no one knows.
To-day the remaining buildiugs have
been removed, and Antioch is now
free from this degraded class.
Baton Rouge, La., May 2. At the
municipal elction held at Plaqueinine
yesterday, tho entire Democratic
ticket was elected by a lare majority.
Clark the governor's private sec
retary received the following telegram
this afternoon: Bull Kagle ai.d
hostile chiefs aro doing their
utmost to persuade the young men
all to leave tho reservation. It
is feared a raid on tho fron
tier settlements is contemplated.
Sitting Bull is getting large quan
tities of ammunition from a baud of
half-breeds camped near Bear Butte,
northeast of the Black Hills. Gen.
Croock's expedition will start out on
or before May 15th. It will be di
vided into three detachments. The
main one under Gen. Crook in person
will leave the U. P. R. R. The hoc
ond part under Gen. Jno. Gibbons,
will move down the Yellowstone. A
vigorous and active campaign will be
prosecuted all summer.
The Washington correspondence
of the Boston llrrabl says the next
President, if he bo chosen from
among candidates now prominent,
is not likely to be a poor man. On
the Republican side, Blaine is rich
est; Bristow and vtife are worth a
quarter of a million; Hayes is still
better off; Cokling is believed to
po9?ess over $100,000 while Morton
and Wheeler have smaller fortunes.
Tihlen on the Democrat side, is
wealthiest, he being put ilowu at 4,
000,000 or 5,000,000; Davis owns
more than "1 ,000,000 and Thurman
has a large fortune; Bayard is well
to do, while Hancock is in comfort
able circumstances.
New York, Beecher lectured at
the Academy last night; in tho aid of
the new Soldiers' Home. The house
was jammed in every part. Beecher
received a great welcome. Thirteen
thousand and seven hundred dollars
was raised in a few minutes.
Sax Antonio, Texas, M:iy 5 Col.
Quiutana, with 200 Federals occu
pied Neueva Loredo. Col. Forney -er,
with 300 Revolutionists, is outside
preparing for an attack. Consider
able excitement exists at Plegeras
Negras. The Revolutionists, with 300
men are waiting outside for rein
forcements before attacking the place.
The most of the Fedral custom house
officials are in Eagle pass, Texas for
safety.
Washington, May 5. Sargent's
speech on the Chinese question made
a good deal of impression on the
Senators and has since been the sub
ject of frequent reference especially
his showing that the Chinese do not
come here for citizenship, and their
corrupting influence on the morals of
communities; but the accounts of vio
lent expression on this sbject coming
by telegraph, are tending to destroy
the efforts made here. It is very
important that the people of tho Pa
cific coast should restrain all expres
sion of mob passion, so as to give
their friends here a chance to secure
them relief from existing evils.
Winnemicca, May 5 Rover, tho
murderes of Sharp, has at last re
ceived his sentence. When asked
by the court could he give a reason
why the sentence of death should
not be passed upon him the prisoner
arose and, produceiug several doc
uments, read to the court eight dif
ferent points, iu which, he alleged,
unjust and illegal testimony had been
admited into court, and also that tho
jury were biased and prejudiced from
reading journals containing com
ments upon his case, which papers
weve distributed broadcast through
out the country. Hover closed his
remarks by quoting peices of poetry.
Judge Bonafide replied to the xris
oner in a solemn and impressive man
ner, that 12 jurymen thorougly and
searchingly exaimed, and found to
be unprejudiced ami unbiased, had
found him guilty of murder in the
first degree beyond a resouablo doubt.
The court then passed sentence to
the effect that J. V. Rover be hanged
on the ICtli of June next. Rover,
rising, exclaimed, "Judge your fcen
tence I cannot help; but you will
know the truth of this matter." An
impression prevails that Rover is
touched with insanity, or otherwise
a hardened and confirmed villain.
Population of Japan.
The most noted cities of Japan
are Trkio, the capital (formerly
called Yedo, Kioto, Ozaka, (or Osa
ka), Xagoya, Hiroshima, Saga, Kag
oshima, Kanagawa, Fukuoka. The
above named f re cities of the first
class, each reckoned to contain at
least 100,(100 inhabitants. Nagasa
Kumamoto, Fukui, Kurume, Yoko
homa, Gifu, and Yonezawa, rank in
in the second class, having more
than 50,000. Hakodate (Hakodadi),
Matsume, Niigata, and Iliogo, have
from 20,000 to 50,000 each. There
are probably fifty cities more, con
taining on an average more than
20,000. The population of Japan
has never been properly ascertained,
the Japanese method being merely
to count the houses, and average 5
persons to one house. Such a "cen
sus" was taken in ISO I, and gave a
population of 3J,0(0,0(iO. A hasty
estimate made by the Department of
Education in lHT'J, and about 33,
000,000 souls were reported. For
eign travelers and those who have
long resid p in Japan assign 20,000,
as the highest, and 15,000,000 as the
lowest figures. Shikoku, Kiuslmi,
and the central provinces aro thick
ly populated, especially along the
the great roads. In the north part
of tho main island tho poj illation is
thin, and in the whole of Yezo, Ka
rafto, aud the Japanese Kuriles, ac
cording to the native estimate?, there
arc fewer than 00,000. Tokio (Yedo)
contains 80O.000, Kioto 507,331,
and Ozaka 530,885 souls. Appbtoii

Tho reduction in the navy bill
amounts in reality to neatly $5,500,
000, and the appropriation is so fixed
that the department cannot spend
more than its appropriation during
t lie coming year.
