The Republican State ticket was com posed of the best men in our State, who fought manfully for the sur premisy of Republican -principles and was defeated only by a small majority,uothwithstandihg the ranks of the party were sadly depleated by the premature action of the In dependents. Whatever the Inde pendents may be able to do in the future, it must be patent to every one of any political sagacity that they could not reasonably expect to carry this election. Hence every Republican xotc thrown away on the Independent ticket was a vote in support of the Lock swindle, the Portland Police Bill, and the Liti gant Act. "W6 .object not to reform, but ex perience has taught us that the surest way to xrain the top "of the ladder is round bj' rouud. The transition from one principle to another higher should never be so far extended as to cause the loss of the one already possessed. "We were unable to preccivo how the ludepeuts could or would make any improvements on tho principles advocated and carried out by the Republicans. But if there were honest Republicans who sincerly be lieved that they could improve up- onwhat they had gained by going into tho Independent movement why did they not stop short and save what they already possessed when they saw that it was impos sible at this election 'to gain the point they .desired.. The Republi cans supporting tho Republican State ticket were known to be large ly in 'the majority of those support ing the Independent ticket before the day of election; and as it hag ever bcen.Rcpublicauism to abide by the will of the party, it became their imperative duty as Republi cans to save the State from corrup tion by supporting the Republican ticket, and in their failure to do so thoy Iiavo cast the blame of the de feat upon themselves, and thrown a cloud of political oppression over our youug State that will take years 'to remove. It is well known that it has ever been one of tho -first principles of Republicanism to cheerfully sub mit to the will of a majority of the party. If they had been in the ma jority'thoj could have the thrown, and justly too, the blame on the supporters of tho Republican State ticket, but they being sadly in the minority, and knowing the fact, they alone arc censurable. HOW THEX PLAYED IT. The couut shows how croakers for a straight Republican ticket in Jacksonville and adjoining precincts played it The count shows but two straight Kepublican votes in tho precinct This was in keeping with their programme and -contract with tho leaders of tho Bedrock party. They were to deceive the Republicans through tho county by croaking principle and while the Republicans in the out-side precincts were voting the Republican ticket straight, the faction in Jacksonville and adjoining precincts, where the programme was understood, were voting for the Bedrocks. This double game would, of course, de feat any party, and should forever, politically, damn its plotters. " Wm. E. Osbom liaOecn re-appointed by Gov. Grove as Commis sioner of Deeds for Oiegou,to reside in Brooklyn, New 'York. THE COUNTY ELECTION. y . The County election has resulted in the defeat of the People's ticket and the election of the Bedrock Democracy. The People's ticket was selected with care from the ranks of the Democratic and Republican parties by a Convention called for that pur pose. The candidates were about equally divided, as to party "princi ples, and embraced, without excep tion, men with known ability and integrity. It being evident that a straight Republican ticket could not be elected, a very large major ity of the Republicans favored an amicable division of the officers with those Democrats who have heretofore indirectly aided and pro moted the election of the Repub can ticket- Every Republican who stopd the brunt of the battle two years ago, and who was familiar with the feelings, actions and pur pose of the Independent Democrats, then felt that it was not only right, but that it was due to those Demo crats as a matter of gratitude that they should in some part bo re warded. On the other hand there was a faction sprung up calling them selves the Stright -Republicans, whose leaders being counselled and actihor under the direct advice of the Bedrock Democrats, who suc ceeded by the vilest falsehoods 'and slander in deceiving many good Republicans of the true intent and purpose of those who favored the People's movement. Old Repub licans who have been from the first organization of the Republican par ty, and who arc still the bone and sinue of it, were accused of attempt ing to 6ell it out and destroy the or ganization, when in truth and in fact they were, earnestly working to preserve its principles and its good effects by doing the only thing practicable that could be done un der the circumstances; because they prefcred a part to none; because they prcferod known Democratic fxiends to known Democratic eni mies, the ringleaders of this faction who were and had been working in the interest of the Bedrock Demo crats for week before the election, had the brazen cheek to call thorn "traitors." And now that the elec tion is over, they, to show the ex tent of their ingratitude toward the friends that placed them in offico two years ago, and that they never were sincere in what they profess ed, they boast longest and loudest about defeating the Peoples and electing the Bedrock Democratic ticket, .and even go futhcr and de clare that they never expected to elect a man, and that they accom plished all they set out to do, name ly, the election of tho Bedrocks. In this they tell the truth and con firm what their secret counsels with the Bedrocks compelled every one who saw their mancevering to be lieve weeks before any of the Con ventions were held. It is to be de plored that any Republican should allow himself to be made a tool of by the enemy by blindly following a spiteful faction that had neither truth or honor. There are doubt less many good men that were de ceived jinto this movement who .in nocently mistook a name for a prin ciple, falsehood for truth, and an imrrate for a man, who can now have time to regret at their leisure for thus acting lastely and blindly, and without reason or judgment The Lafayette Courier, of tho 5th inst, gives the account of the -escape of John Russell, who was con fined in the Yamhill county jail. His escape was made through the feed door, the lock of which he broke with one of the cross-bars to his bed frame. He was indicted in 1872 by the Grand Jury for horse stealing and arson, for the first of fense he served one year in the Penitentiary. SWEET CONSOLA110N. The office holders factidn can now have the-swect consolation of know ing that thoy through greed and causeless spite defeated their real friends and placed their enimies in office- RETURNED. Judge Tolman has 'arrived home, and iB in good health and fine spir its. Though defeated be has made a good canvass, and we believe that he is the real choice of a large 'ma jority of the voters of the State. If the vote had been between him and Grover, he would have been elected by a large majority. Tho Judge has made many warm friends during the campaign, and is, to-day, by far the most popular man of the three condidates. He will be ever highly respected by his friends and neighbors in South ern Oregon whether in or out of of fice, and can ever have the consol ation of knowing that it is better to live in the hearts of the people than in office with their censure and con demnation, which must be the fate of his successful opponent. WHO DOUBTS THE TRUTH OF THIS Napoleon met one day an old soldier with one arm ; he stopped and said to him, "Where did you lose your arm?" "Sire at Auster litz," was tho reply. "And you were not decorated?" asked the Emporer. "2fo, Sire, I was for gotten." "Then," rejoined Na poleon, "here is my own cross for you, I make you Chevalier," "Ah, Sire," exclaimed the soldier, "your Majesty names mo Chevalier be cause I have lost one of my arms ; what would your Majesty done if I had lost them both ?" "I should have created you officer of the Legion," answered Napoleon. thereupon tho soldier instantly drew his sword and cut off his other arm. As it every old soldier didn't have three arms Shoulder arms ! Present arms ! Arms at ease ! What's easier ? A dog supposed to be" mad was at large in the streets of Pendleton the other day. Several shots were fired at him. Minutes ol Teacliers'lnstltate The following minutes of the Teach ers' Institute wero sent in for publica tion. The Institute was held at Ash land. June 5th aird 6th.
