"I would cum up the policy of the Adminis
tration to be a thorough enforcement pf every
law; a faithful collection ot every tax provided
for; economy in the disbursement of the same;
a prompt payment of every debt of the nation;
a reduction of taxes as rapidly aslhe require
ments of ihe country will admit; reductions of
taxation and tariff, to be to arranged as to af
ford the greatest relief to the greatest number;
honest and fair dealings with all other people,
to the end that war, with all its blighting con
sequences, may be avoided, but without surren
dering atiy right or obligation due to us; a
reform In the treatment of Indians, and In the
.whole civil service ot the country: and finally,
in securing a pure, untrammeled ballot, where
every man entitled to cast a vote may do to,
just once, at each election, without fear of mo
lestation or persecution on account or his P-
litical faith, nativity or color." U. S. Giukt.
"ONE MAK POWEK."
The above words have been ohucked
into our ears pretty lively for the last
few days, by the disorganizers and
but stop, that is all : we were about to
add the word "Democrats," but we re
member there are no Democrats ; no
Democratic party; no party or party
principles of any kind, outbide of the
Republican party. Everything that
has been started in opposition to the
Republican parly, so far, is a negation,
a denial, a drawback; a stubborn mon
ster, having all the propensities of the
long eared species save his usefulness;
a thing without energy, "without a purpose,-without
courage, without policy
or principle; a dead weight upon tbe
living, active energies of the people.
It is from this batch of tailings, con
sisting of chaff, cockle and cheat, with
Greeley for their stock in trade, that
we hear the words ''One Man Power I"
The parrot can 6ay two words, viz :
"Pretty Polly." Darwin's men have
eaten so freely of the crow of late that
they have got back to three, and repeat
them about as often and as understand
ingly as the parrot does the two. Tbe
dry goods merchants would do well to
notice this fact before laying in their
stocks, as a majority of these crow
caters will be covered with feathers
before they will heed another suit.
But really, what do they mean by
Iho words, "One Man Power?" A
few of the wiseacres attempt to tell us
that they have heard of a man of won
derful power, living in the northern
part of the State, who has a railroad
scheme on foot in which he is going to
absorb every other interest, and to re
duce the people to a state of poverty,
and then to subjugate them and sell
them out as slaves. These few wise
acres, by starting this most ridiculous
and absurd idea, have got all the feath
ered tribe croaking "One Man Power."
It is a true saying that nothing can be
started, howeverridiculous, but it will
have its followers. "William Miller, by
constant traveling and preaching, in
duced 50,000 persons to believe that
the world would be destroyed in 1843,
and it is not strange that these wise
sages are able to make these pin feath
ered crow-eaters believe that one man
could. subjugate a little State like Or
egon. But how do these alarmists propose
to avert the danger they prophesy ?
Do ttitiy propose to submit to the will
of & majority of the party in power,
and by thus submitting, conform to the
wish of a majority of the people of the
State? If so, why all this clamor?
But no; they don't propose to do any
thing of the kind: on the contrary,
they aro doing their best to thwart the
will of the people, that the party in
the minority may carry the day. In
stead of being in favor of a majority
of the State ruling, they are in favor
of the very thing which they pretend
to condemn, viz: the "One Man row
er." They propose to take a man and
run him in one party as long as he is
the choice of the party, then jump bim
into the .opposition and run him there
as long as he is the choice, and then to
jump him back; and by thus jumping
bim'from one party to the other they
lope to keep him'continually in office.
If there is any sense in the words "One
Man Power," they really mean that by
keeping a' man constantly in office, it
throws the whole power of the State
into hia hands, where he virtually has
the people under his thnmb, and if he
chooses to be 3 tyrant, can do so vrith
impunity. That this can be done, no
one of any sense will pretend to donbt,
when he reflects that the two opposing
parties are nearly eqnal, and in all prob
ability will ever remain so; and that
the man who is snccessinl enough to
be elected to the United States Senate
has it in his power to favor his friends
with fat offices and obligate them to
him. so that they will vote for him un
der all circumstances, that they may
retain their offices by securing his elec
tion. If it is honorable and just and right
for an aspirant to disregard the choice
of his party, and accept the overtures
of the party in the minority, then we
have nothing to say, and would advise
every one to drop all conscientious
scruples about honor and justice, and
to hereafter work for himself alone, re
gardless of the rights" of others. The
winning party, in this case, must for
ever submit to the choice of the minor
ity or suffer a defeat, for the minority
hold the balance of power and tbe op
posing party being not able to elect
one of their own choice will seek to
defeat the largest number of their op-
ponents, and go in with the minority

to accomplish their object. Under this
rule our Senators, instead of being the
choice of the people, or any considera
ble portion of them, will be the choice I
ot one or two men, or one more than
the difference between the numbers of
the two parties. It that difference be
but one, then the Senator is the choice
of but one man; it it be six, then four
men, and so on. And this difference
will, in ninety-nine cases out of every
hundred, consist of office holders whe
are at the mercy of the aspirant. If
the diborganizers are allowed to rule,
then a man once in office is always an
officer. Why don't the disorganizers
be consistent and cry "one term," on
this Senatorial question, like they do
on the Presidential ?
1ETTEE FEOM B. P. DOWELL.
Salem, Oregon, Sept. 24, 1872.
Friend Kelly: Last night thirty
four members met in caucus, and on
the first ballot Hon. John H. Mitchell
of Portland received twenty-seven
votes for U. S. Senator. It was then
made unanimous. This only lacks two
of electing him Senator. I hope the
balance of the Republicans will join
us to day. I have but little doubt of
his election. The following are the
resolutions of the caucus, and Mr.
Mitchell's acceptance :
Wueeeas, There are forty-three
Republican members in the present
Legislative Assembly, therefore
Jiesolved, That it shall require twenty-two
votes to nominate, and the per
son who shall receive twenty-two votes
in this caucus shall be declared the
nominee of this caucus and of the Re
publican party as candidate for United
Stale Senator; and we do jointly and
severally hereby pledge ourselves to
vole for and exert our influence to
secure the election of such person.
Jiesolved, That the vote in this cau
cus for candidate for U. S. Senator
shall be viva voce.
On motion it was resolved to go into
the nomination of a candidate for U. S.
Senator.
Hon. J. II. Mitchell was placed in
nomination and received twenty-seven
votes.
On motion of Mr. Brown of Marion,
Mr. Mitchell's nomination was made
unanimous.
On motion, the following preamble
and resolution were adopted unani
mously.
Whereas, We the Republican repre
sentatives of the Legislative Assembly
of the State of Oregon, are informed by
a letter written by the Hon. George H.
Williams that ho declines an election
to the Senate of the United States, a
position which he has filled during six
years with great ability, and in a man
ner highly creditable to himself, and
reflecting honor on our State ; there
tore, Jiesolved, That while we regret the
voluntary act of ihe Hon. George H.
iviuiams, aecuning an ciecuou lo me
Senate of the United States, we recog
nize the fact thai he occupies the high
and honorable position of Attorney
General where his services are valuable
to the people of the nation ; that we
have confidence in his integrity, his
patriotism, his ability and his states
manship; that we regard him as a true
and earnest Republican who has faith
fully labored to promote the best inter
ests ot the whole country and to ad
vance the growth and prosperity of our
own State while a member "of the
Cabinet, and that we are grateful to
Presidcut Grant for placing in his
vauinei one so wormy ana so nolo to
preside over the Department of Justice.
On motion, a committee of two was
appointed to wait upon Hon. J. H.
Mitchell, inform him ot his nomination
and request his presence.
ME. MXrCHELL'fl ACCEPTANCE.
The Committee having waited upon
Mr. Mitchell and informed him of his
nomination, he appeared and accepted
tho nomination, in the following terms:
"Mr. President, Fellow Republicans,
members of the Legislative Assembly J
of the btate ot Oregon:
I can assure you it is with emotions
of deep gratitude that I have received
the announcement from your Commit
tee, that through the generous expres
sion of yonr confidence I have become
your candidate, the candidate ol the
Republican party in the Legislative
Assembly, and of the Republican parly
at large in the State of Oregon, for the
high position of United States Senator.
I am, gentlemen, profounbly sensible of
the high compliment embodied in the
result of your deliberations ; and for
this generous manifestation of your
confidence in me as a man, as a citizen,
and as an humble member of that party
to which we are all proud to belong,
you will each and all please.accept the
free gift of a grateful heart. It fs
scarcely necessary for me to say that I
cheerfully accept the nomination so
generously and unanimously-made by
you, and should that nomination be
ratified by you and your fellow Repub
lican members now absent, as I have
no doubt it will be, and should I be
called upon to 'act as one of your
representatives in the highest Councils
of the nation, although I should ap
proach the performance of tho impor
tant duties ot that exalted, position
with distrust in my own ability and
with fear and trembling, I can asRure
you, gentlemen, it would be my earn
est desire, my fondest ambition, to so
regulate my conduct as to cause you
never to regret the choice you have
made this evening.
To maintain the integrity and to
labor for the Republican party, to aid
in pieserving forever, imperishable as
the stars, those immortal principles
which underlie its very existence; to
strive for the elevation ot our young
and noble State to labor to develop
its resources; to stimulate its energies;
to vitalize its industries; to widen its
influence; to construct its railroads; to
enlarge arid protect its commerce ; to
build up its manufactories ; to encour
age its agriculture; to unfold its min
eral wealth ; to augment its power and
maintain its dignity and exalt its fair
name at home and abroad ; these, gen
tlemen, are things the accomplishment
of which should receive my earnest
consideration, my studied efforts, and
should attract my loftiest ambition.
The contest that has just resulted in
my nomination has, as between the
friends of the respective candidates,
been spirited and somewhat prolonged,
but it is gratifying to know that a spir
it of good feeling and harmony, free
as a rule, with few exceptions, from
that acrimonious discord so often oc
curring in healed political campaigns,
even in our own party. And although
a few of our Republican friends have
as yet declined to join you in your
deliberations, I have faith in their pat
riotism and integrity of purpose to
believe that they will yet deem it for
the best interests of our whole party to
cheerfully acquiese in tbe proclaimed
will of the majority.
To those Republican members of the
Legislature who have given their influ
ence to my competitors up lo the pres
ent time, I cheerfully accord motives
prompted by judgments looking to the
highest and best interests of the
Republican party, and the material
prosperity of the whole State. I should
have been gratified with their support
from the first, but I am capable, I trust,
of holding in high regard an open,
manly opponent, believing as I do that
such an one will cheerfully acquiesce in
the decision of a majority. It is with
in the party that all differences of opin
ion as to men should be settled.
The preservation of harmony in, and
the perpetuity of the Republican
party are of infinitely more import
ance to the people of this State and
Nation than is the personal promotion
of any living man. And it is alone by
standing together as a unit, strong and
as one man, that the Republicans in the
present Legislature will be enabled to
maintain tbe harmony and promote
the welfare of the Republican party.
And 1 have full pride in the political
integrity, and the faith and patriotism ot
every Republican member of the pres
ent Legislative Assembly to believe
that they will, foreetting their per
sonal preferences, unite as one man,
and thus procure a complete triumph
lo the Republican party ot this Slate
in the aproaching Senatorial election.
In doing this you give a mighty
impulse, an irresistible stimulus to that
patriotic influence now pervading the
public mind, ard which will continue to
increase in power all over the land
until Grant and Wilson, our present
National Standard Bearers, are tri
umphantly elected.
But I did not intend to make a speech.
So, again thanking you sincerely, and
gratefully, for this generous manifesta
tion of your confidence and esteem, I
bid you good night, hoping and trust
ing that all your deliberations may be
characterized by that true spirit of con
cession and harmny so essential oto the
preservation of the unity of iheRepub
lican party and the general good of the
State and nation.
On motion of Mr. Mallory, the fol
lowing address was adopted unani
mously :
"Pursuant to the Constitution, the
Congress has by law provided the time
and mode of choosing Senators to rep
resent the States. In compliance with
the provisions of that law, the Legis
lative Assembly ot tbe state of Ore
gon will be required, to-morrow, to
cast its vote for a person to fill that of-
fjoe.ibr six years from the 4th day of
March, 1873. A somewhat radical dif
ference ot opinion has existed among
the Republican members of the Legis
lature as to what is the best and prop
er course to be pursued in selecting a
person to be voted for by the Republi
cans in their respective Houses, as well
as in Joint Convention, a large majority-
amounting to nearly three-fourths
of all the Republicans in the Legisla
ture favoring the caucus, and the re
maining members opposing it. A large
majority of the Republicans ot the
Legislature, recognizing the necessity
of unity of action to insure success and
to avoid defeat, and recognizing, alito,
the.fundamental doctrine upon which
our government is based, that majori
ties must rule, and not unmindful of
the fact that it was through the use of
the party machinery of caucuses and
conventions that they were elected to
represent the people in the Legislative
Halls, met in caucus pursuant to the
call of its President, after public notice
thereof had been given in both Houses
of the Legislature, on the 23d inst.,
and by a vote of three-fourths of all
the Republican members of the Legis
lature nominated Hon. J. H. Mitchell,
to be Voted for as the Republican can
didate for U. S. Senator.
It is now most earnestly hoped that
the nomination will meet the approba
tion and secure the nnited support of
all the Republican members of tbe As
sembly. That a nomination mady by
such a majority is the best indication
ot the choice ot the Republican parly,
cannot with reason be disputed. Per
sonal preferences ought to be given up,
and tbe will of the majority be obeyed,
if we hope to maintain our organiza
tion, or ever achieve success as a party.
The contest has been long and animat
ed ; but since it is impossible that all
should win, there is no other rule for
settling who the winner shall be, either
in principle or by precedent, than by
the majority. Let this be done, and
we shall demonstrate not only to the
wily foe who is most ambitious lo com
pass our defeat, but more especially to
our faithful conotiiuency, that we can
not only win a victory but preserve
for them its fruits."
On motion the caucus adjourned.
