In a letter to Lafayette, ritien in April, 1778, he said: "I e&n see no propriety in precluding our selves from the services of any man, who, on some great emergency, shall be deemed universally most capable of serving the public." The "Times" slops over in sickning adulation of "Tom Kent." As a man is best known at home we will state: that Mr. Kent was beaten over thirty Totes for Justice of the Peace two years ago in Jacksonville precinct, by a Republican, while the precinct gave 8G Democratic majority. We don't pretend to say why, but perhaps the "Times" can? The "Times" remarks with great wisdom, "the people of Oregon have tried Whiteaker,0 Prim, Kelly and Burnett, and they have not been found wanting." Why, they have always been found "wanting" generally wanting office, and Kelly wanted SI 0,000 to buy a Republican elector with. The "Times"' either perpetrates a travesty on truth or is dealing out some of its Juvenile "taffey," There is a well established maxim that; "a man's character is best estima ted by his standing in his own com munity." The recorded fact, then, that E. B. Watson ran "five hundred and one" votes ahead of. the Republican &tabe tietel -in Jackson county, at the general election in 18.78, is a sufficient answer to all the- slime and slurs of the "Daily Standard" and "Democratic Times." Truly a man is best known Hgjhere he is known; and JjCjjaWat. son's vote in this county is a handsome recognition of his ability and 'honor. The "Times" wants to know if we refer to the late Republican candidate for Governor when we speak about "swamp land grabbers." Not by any means. We refer to such men as Gov ernor Thayer who filed on 100,000 acres and when he found his act un. popular sneakingly assigned it to H. C. Owen. We refer also to the scoun drels who professing Democracy robbed the settlers of Lake, by passing the law; and before it was approved by the Governor filing on it for their own in dividual benefit presenting the spec tacle oE legislators, under tho guise of Democracy bribing themselves; and these men are slobbered over by . the ''Times" as standards of decency and patriotism. i We again demand proof from Dem . ocratlc journals, that John Whiteaker did not accept a bribe from Teal & Goldsmith in the shipo of "ten Bhares" in the Lock and Dam Company, and that those shares were not voted for him by proxy at meetings of the stock holders. The SsffTuret. affirms that he did accept the bribe, while a member of the Legislature and the "Statesman" referring to the article remarks: "What is intimated in the above ar ticle from the Oregon Sentinel is founded upon facts that cannot be con troverted. Those who have any doubts .ujion the subject are referred to' the istock books of the "Willamette Falls, Canal and Lock Company," which are open to inspection in Portland. Mere denial of these charges will not avail jn the face of all the proofs." "The fact that an honest Democrat like Gen. Lane is opposing Whitpaker is, in itself, suspicious and any Demo cratic paper that supports him has more effrontery than honesty, A MATTER FOR COMJUATILATJOS. The late Republican Convention did itself honor in the nomination of Hon. ?!.. George, for Representative in Congress. It is refreshing in the midst fit ifeo blurted and stained records that fxw&ikop optical arena to now and then .tare the opportunity of raising to responsible official position a man whose life is pure and xslean. Such a nan is Hon. M. C. George. Reared in Oregon his whole history is before s .and there is nothing in that history that seeds explanation or excuse. JJx. George' is a man of fino ability, splen did address, an eloquent speaker, and what is better than all his moral char acter and sterling integrity is unques tioned and abovn reproach Christian dvooate. rBRTC COMPAKATIli: IVDlhTKT. There are two candidates before the people of Oregon for the position of Representative in Congress, M. C. George and John Whiteaker. Each has served in the State Legislature, and the latter is now serving in Con gress. The partizan friends of Mr. Whiteaker claim for him the greatest measure of industry and uf efulness but as "a tree is known by its fruits" the record of the representative must be the index of his industry. John Whiteaker had tee honor to i-erve the people of his county in two different sessions of the Legislature, and we de fy any person to show that ho ever drafted a single bill or that any bill in troduced by him ever became a law. Indeed, instead of being the servant of the people he was the friend of corpor ations and lus mSRnotaiil&rervice was in aid of a bill that took from the school fund of Oregon ?2C0,000 for the benefit of the Lock and Dam Com pany. Mr. Whiteaker has had golden opportunities in Congress. His party has been largely in the majority and if his industry and efficiency had beep near as great as his partizan zeal, the people of Oregon should certainly have heard of one act in behalf of our ma terial interests. On the contrary, not a single bill pvor introduced by him during two bessions of Congress have ever become laws, which is not credita ble to his ability or influence. How does the record of his competi tor, Mr. George, stand 1 At the last session of the Oregon Legislature about four hundred and fifty bills were in troduced; thirty-nine which became laws by the approval of the Governor after their final passage. Nine of these laws were either drafted or in troduced by Mr. George and two other bills, introduced and passed by both houses, failed only because they were not enrolled in time, which was no fault of his. These are solid facts that will be hubstantiated by any member of the last Legislature. We will not use any arguments but leavo the com parison, between the industry and ef ficiency of the two candidates, to be drawn by sensible men, who desire the people, and not a party to be repre sented in Congress. SOMETHING (HUILOOULD. The "Times'' is so busy smirching and trying to befoul candid.Ues.-Uiat it has overlooked the following: Portland, Nov. 28, 1876. To W. T. Pelton, No,15rGramracr cy Park: Certificate will issue to one Democrat Must purchase Republican elector to recognise and act with Dem ocrat, and secure vote and prevent trouble. Deposit S10.000 to my credit. Kountz Bros, 12, Wall street. An swer. J. N. H. Patrick I fully endorse this. James K Kelly. And this same James K. Kelly, tho man who unb'ushingly "endorses" an infamous proposition to buy an elector and makes himself guilty of an attempt at bribery is now a candidate for ju dicial honors. He fully acknowledged hisguilt on the floor of the Senate and seeing the just indignation of Senators of both parties, abjectly begged for mercy, which by the exertions of Mr. Mitchell, was given him. Now the "Times," that wants its candidates so very clean, has "fully endorsed" him to the public a a model of judicial purity. Can it be reasonably expected that men who "endorse" brib ery are fit for Judicial positions and is it unreasonable that here should be a loud outcry and a just protest against their decisions? The "Times" by up holding this man, approves of "bribery" else it would spurn him, as ho was spurned by every Democratic Senator, and it places itself where it is depriv ed of the right to question the char acter of any candidate", just as nature has denied its editors the right to measure anyxanditates ability. AT IT AGAIN. We had hoped that the "Times" would ha e confined itself to the truth in the conduct of a very f-bort cam paign, but the two beardless juveniles of that concern, that dish up their advice to old grey-bearded men every week can do.no better than re-iterate a silly lie&bout Judge Watson. Wo refer to tho insinuation that Judge Watson at tempted to naturalize Chinamen and is in favor of their naturalization. This lie was published in the "Times" two years ago but it was so palpably false and without foundation; that its circu. lation added largely to Judge Watson's immense majority just as it will do'tbis year. We do not say that the editors of the "Times" originated this flimsy falsehood. Indeed they are incapable of originating anything: and are only an echo to Mmiebody else's bark. We find no fault, however ,w ith their course; they may hae a monopoly of it and if they imagine that they will be sustained by this community in trying to dra" down every man who asks for position" because he will not wear the collar of the 'Times" and the "rins" thm rliru fates to It, they are badly mistaken: THE I'EO PLC'S CALL. Elsewhere will be found a call for a people's convention, to be held on the 25th inst. This mode of selecting can didates for county offices w as tried two years ago, the selections made were handsomely notified by the voters and the result, so far as those elected are concerned, has been a county adminif tration notd for economy and strict attention to duty. County offices are not political in any sense, and it is coi -ceded that they are always best filled by men who owe nothing to party, who are under no obligations to rings composed of little politicians, who have to make neither promises nor combina tions, pull party wires and, are n spoi. sible directly to the body of the people Experience has proved that what may be done directly to tho people them selves, without the intervention of men, who make politics a business, should be done by them, and is best for their interests. It is their duty, therefore, to control the appointment of their own servants, so far as lies in their power, withoutinterference from rings or cliques, m . LTf I'OSTAL KOLTES. Washington, May 1: The follow ing new postal routes are created in Southern Oregon: Linkville via Tule Lake, Scorpion Point, Dry Lake and Burgood's ranch to Fall river mills, California; from Linkville via Plevna, Klamath ferry, Miller's ranch, Dorsey's ranch, Fair child's ranch and Ball's ranch to Mt Shasta California. From Drews valley via Barnes valley to Langell valley; from Linkville to Mount Shasta; from Lwkvillo to Fort Klamath. The lat ter is already established and service has been performed on it for seyeral years; Ed. 11 HAT UKL4.0N .IIIaSED. It is not generally known that Oregon lost the glorious opportunity of furnishing a President. Theol lowing extract from General Joseph Lane's speech at Canyonville, on Sat urday the 8th instant, seems to point that way; but perhaps Oregon's loss was the nation's gain. Gen. Lane said : When Lincoln offered me a Brigadier ship. I refused it, preferring to come back and work on my farm. Had I accepted Grant would not have been President. I would have taken his place 1" 4r m S 1'ROSI'LCTIIE CHANGE Our County Court have at last de termined to change the system of keep ing the county poor entirely. After a thorough investigation, they have con cluded that the proper way is to erect suitable buildings and have a few acres of land attached; so that thero can be fair competition in bidding for the care and support of the poor. Tho movn meets with the almost universal approval of the tax payers and it is only a pity it had not been made years ago. OREGON KinNEY TEA.
