For Vice President, JJliISgJEW WTIiSOBT. For .Presidential Electors, "W. D. HARE, of N'oshinjiton Comity. A. B. MEAOHAM, of Umatilla County. J. F. GAZELY, of Douglas County. '"I would sum up the policy of the Administration to bo a thorough enforcement of every law; a faithful . collection of every tax provided for; economy in the disbursement of the same; a prompt payment of every debt of the nation; a reduction oi taxes as rapidly as the requirements of the country will admit; reductions of taxation and tariff, to be so arranged as to afford the greatest relief to the greatest number; honest and fair dealings with all other people, to the end that war with all its blighting consequences, may be avoided, but without surrendering any right or obligation due to us; a reform in the treatment of Indians, and in the whole civil service of the country; and finally in securing a pure, untramm elled ballot, where every man entitled to cast a vote may do so, just once, at each election, without fear of molesta tion, or prosecution on account of his political faith, nativity, or color." U. S. Grant. Oregon Railroad Lands This Act is generally misonderstood. Our citizens complain that they will have to pay tha company any price it may asu lor their lands. This is a great mistake. In California this is the case; but in Oregon it is just the reverse. In Oregon thev are bound to sell them to actual settlers only, and at no greater price than $2 50 per acre. The original act of 1866 al lowed tho company to charge any price it pleased, nnd tho California company complied with the original grant by completing the first 20 miles of the road and filing its assent to the terms of the grant. The Oregon com pany did not do this, and it applied foa an amendment. Congress granted the desired amendment, with tho ex press proviso that the sales of the lands should be confined to actual hcttlers. It is in pamphlet acts of 1 869, page 1 09: "Be it enacted by the Senate and Bouse of liepresentativespftlic UniteA States ofAmcrua in Congress ossein bled, That section six of an act enti tled "An act granting l.-nds to aid in the construction ol a railroad and tele graph line from the Cential Pacific Railroad, in California, to Portland in Oregon." approved July twenty-five, eighteen hundred and sixtysix, be and thy same is hereby, amended so as to allow any railroad company heieto fore detognated by th legislatuie of Oregon, in accordance with tho first section of said act, to file its assent to snch act in the Depaitment of the In terior within one year from the date of this act; and such filing of its assent if done within one year from the date of the passage hereof, shall have the same force and effect to all intents and purposes as if such assiut hail been tiled within one year after the jiaswi.'e of said act: Provided, That not bin-' herein shall impah- auy rights hereto fore acquired by any railroad company under said act, nor shall said act o'r this amendment be construed to enti tie more than one company to a grani of land: And provided further, That the lands grained by the act atoie.-aid shall bo sold to actual settlers only, in quantities not exceeding two doiluis and fifty cents per acre." Gexeva, June 123. It is now stated that when the Hoard of Arbitration meets again on Wednesday, the Amer lean Agent will maintain that "the tribunal can adjourn likonny tle, court by tho powers conferred .by the provision under which it was consti tuted, to enable it to determine the question ol the admissibility of indi rect claims. If England persists in its reiusal to proceed with arbitration America will press her judgment by default. Hon. X ItNeil, against whom Fay centered all his effortsln tho late cam paign in Jackson county was elected by the enormous majority of 380 votes! -Lafayette Courier. Eailroad Enterprise. We clip the following from the Bul letin, -which clearly shows that the people are not being defrauded out of a dollar, hut that those having our railroads interests in charge have been working in earnest for the good of the people, and have succeeded in enhanc ing the value of the property along the line of the road, from hundreds to millions of dollars: "Now let us investigate whether the companies have acted in good faith in their engagements and honorably ful filled the obligations they assumed: The original grant was voted by Con gress in July, 18CG. No railroad was built up to Jnly, 18GS. That vear the grant passed into the hands of the Company which Mr. Holladay con trolled, and by July. 1870. there were completed, equipped and operated nearly fifty mites of railway up the lllamette Valley! And at this time less than thrto years from the time when JMr. Holladay commenced his railroad enterprises in Oregon, there are twomilrnirln in AMv a..i;v ..,.. . . ....!... !ar operation; one of neailv tico han. drcd miles in length, extending clear into the heart of Southern Oregon, and the other penetrating the rich and lovely valleys of the West Side tier of counties. AH along the line i f each railroad is 6tretched a line of tele graph, commodious warehouses, pas senger depots, shops, and other stiuu tures have been built all of a sub stantial, neat and handsome character, and for every stiokc of labor, for for every particle of material, and everything else used in this immense work of construction, tin- cash in coin has been paid in full! And the Com panies have on hand a vast supply of railroad iron, extra rolling stock, and cxerv thing needed to build and equip and operate the roads as the track is prepared; their car shops :ind machine shops, aud their baw milN, aio eon stantly turning out whatever is requited in construction; and hundreds of men are daily ami constantly employed in the multifoira "and various depaitments which are peculiar to first class rail roading entpiprii.

A very pleasant affair came off on last Tuesday evening at the Congregational Church in this city. The Rev. Thomas Con don, in behalf ol the scholars and teachers ol the Congregational SabLath school, in a neat and appropi late speech, piesented the Hon J. G. Willson. Chorister of the Sabbath School, with a beautilul silver headed cane. The Judge replied with a halt hours' ad dres", in his usual happy and felicitous manner. The church was crowded with the Sunday School children and thier parents, and all seemed well pleas ed with the affair.- The cane was made by L. C. Uenriclisen, Jeweler, Portland, and is a periecl beanty. Kn graved on the h. ad is the following sentence: Piesented to the Hon. J. G W i.lson by the Congregational Sunday School of the Dalles, Oregon, June 1872.- Mountaineer A Magnificent Caravansary. The GrandPacific Hotel, now in pro cess of constiuction in Chicago, will he a splindid affair. It haB on "tour sides, looking to each point of the compass, over 1,000 feet of street frontage, ot which 750 feet on the east, south and west fronts are built with tho olive tinted Ohio sandstone. Tho building will rise 100 feet to the cornice, and the decks of the principal loweis that crown tho Mansards will be 124 feet from the level ol the street grade. As a hotel it will provide COO rooms for guests, and its floor will ri quire 7A acres of carpets. o Industrial Ansiv. The following'is estimated as the strength of the grand army of mechanics and laboers employ ed in the work of rebuilding the city ol Chicago. Carpenters, 15,000: brick layers 10,000; plasterers, 3,000 ; paint eis, 4,000; stoneters, 5,000; ordinary laborers, JO,OG0. Total, 57.000. It requires five millions of men, half a million of horses, and eight thousand cannon, maintained at an annual ex- pence ot seven hundred millions of dollars, to preserve the piece ot Europe This i3 exclncive of the cost of forts, arsenals, ship, wagons, tents, hospitals, etc., etc An extensive' bed of coal has been discovered twenty miles cast of Rose-burg. A Doublc-barre'ed 'Wail of Anguish from Brick Pomeroy. Brick Pomeroy gives vent to his rage and anguish, in the .following manner: Look at the Democrats of thc'United States! A pack of fools! A congregation of cowards under the lead of thieves! Three millions of men afraid to move! An army of men without a leader a mob without a head a host with out a name or idea! Where are the captains the gener als the leaders the organizers of the parly? A-Ieep, drunk, stealing or making bargains with political enemies! Where is the National Democratic committee, with a life giving address, and counsel, and help, at each State campaign? Sleeping with Augnst Belmont's dogs or horses; sucking soup from the bones gnawed in his bank, or buying gew gaws for their mi-tresses with money made by them from sly little bargains with the Administration. v. Where is the working head the collector, helper, organizer the Chair man of the National Executive Com mittee, of the Dtmocxatic party of the United States? Buying ami selling blood! Dealing in bonds! Cutting coupons from the twenty eight millions of dollars' worth of United States paper he holds for himsell and the foieign masters, who look upon our land as theirs! He i working against tho Democratic party. He is payi g money to secure ami in sure a lit publican ictoiy. lie is helping other Democrats make people believe that political victories can be won by intrigue and idleness, rather than by work honestly planned and well continued. God hates a coward! Then God hates the Democracy ol to day, for it is but a lazy, aimfess, shiftless mass of Cowardice, afraid to move, to speak, to act, to say, to do, to plan, to think, to organize" to fight or even protest again t outrages the most damnable ever inflicted upon a people. No Committee! No pluck. No organization! No woik. Nodispo-ition to dare! No care for the luture! No wish to help the neotilo out of slavery to the rich and dishonest! .No addresses! No help or suggestion to those who are Hying single handed to cirry States against a centralized power rot ten in corruption! No sending able and eloquent men liorn State to State to talk to the peo ple, infuse life and to help win victories tor Democracy! No care, on the part of the National Committee whether Democrats win or lose! No promise of a National Conven C.'on, but all but two ot the National Uoiu'wuee woiKing and spemling mon.-y aiust one!
