THE BCrrBUCAN PASTY.
In his speech at Chicago, placing
Sherman in nomination for the Presi
dency. Generald Garfield thus outlined
the career of the- Republican party:
Twenty-five years ago this republic
-was wearing a triple chain of bondage.
Long familiarity with traffic in the
bodies and bouls of men had paralyzed
the consciences of a majority of our
people. Tho baleful doctrine of State
sovereignty had shackled and weaken
ed the noblest and most beneficent
powers of the National Government,
and the grasping power of slavery was
seizing the virgin Territories of the
West and dragging them into the den
of eternal bondage. At that crisis the
Bepublican party was born; it drew its
first inspiration from that fire of liber
ty which God has lighted In every hu
man heart, and which all the powers
of ignorance and tyranny "can never
whollyextinguish. Applause. The
Republican party came to deliver and
save the Republic. It .entered the
arena, where the beleaguered and as
sailed Territories were struggling for
freedom, and drew around them a sa
cred circle of liberty, which the demon
of slavery has never dared to cross.
It made them frte forever. Loud
applauRe and cries of "Good."
Strengthened by its victory on the
frontier, the young party, under the
leadership of that great man who, on
this spot, twenty years ago, was made
its leader, entered the national Capitol,
and assumed the high duties of the
Government. Applause. The light
that shone from its banner dispelled
tho darkness in which slavpry had en.
shrouded the capital,"and to that melt
ed1 the shackles of every slave, and
consumed in the fire of liberty every
slave pen within the shadow of the
Capitol. Ourj great national indus
tries by an unprotected policy were
themselves prostrated, and the streams
of revenue flowed in such feeble cur
rents that the Treasury itself was well
nigh-empty. The money of the people
was the wretched notes of two thous
and uncontrolled and irresponsible
Stato banking corporations, which were
filing the country with a circulation
that poisoned rather than-sustained
the life of business. Loud jippjause.
The Republican parly changed all this.
.It aboUshwL, f" 'bMQjf confusioii
and gave the country a currency as na
tional as-ite flags and based it upon the
sacred faith of the people. Applause.
Tt threw its prottcung arm around our
great industries, and they stood erect,
as with new life. It filled with the
spirit of true nationality all the great
functions of the Go eminent; it con
fronted a rebellion of unexampled
magnitude, with slavery behind it,
and, under God, fought the final battle
of liberty until the victory was won.
Applause. Then after the storms of
battle, were heard tho sweet, calm
words of peace spoken by the conquer
ing nation, and saying to the conquer
ed foe that lay post rate at its feet:
"That is our only revenge, that you
join ns in lifting into the supreme
firmament of th Constitution, to shine
like stars forever and ever, the immor
tal 'principles of truih and justice that
all men, white or black, shall be free
and stand equal befole the law."
Loud applause. Then came the
questions of reconstruction, the public
debt and the public faith. In the
settlement of these questions the Re
publican party has completed its twen-ty-five
years of glorious existence, and
it has sent us here to prepare it for
another lustrum of duty and of victory.
The Chicago "Journal" says The re
port published a day or two ago, that
a Republican meeting, called to ratify
thenominations of the Chicago Con
vention, at Montgomery, Ala., was
forcibly broken "up by a Democratic
mob, is fully confirmed. Rotten eggs
and pistols were the chief arguments
used by these "chivalric" friends of
freo speech. Thus opens the campaign
in the "Solid South." And yet tlie
Northern friends of the "bull-dozers"
have the impudence to say that the
Republican party has fulfilled its mis
ion. The "Star" thinks a change in the ad
ministration of public affairs highly
necessary. That is precisely what the
voters of Oregon thcpgbt. on tho 7th
Inst School fund robbtry, swamp
land iniquity, official extravagancp,
abuse of the pardoning power, attempts
at bribery by Senators, acceptance of
bribes by legislators were proper
things to condemn but a. descent in
the administration of national affaire
to the practices of Oregon and Maine
democracy will hardly be thought of in
November.
The Hillsboro "Independent" tells
how that Ben Ingles fired at and
wounded a spike-buck; the deer made
off with Ben in chase, who overtook it,
.seized it by the hind legs and held on
until he'p came. From all of which
it is-,inferred that Ben Ingles is a fleet-'
footed -and brave fellow, but does not
nnderetand the natural history of a
ouiko.bucjf.
GARFIELD OJT CHINESE.
The following extract from a speech
of Mr. Garfield, delivered at Wheeling,
Va., in 1878, shows how he stands on
the Chinese question:
"I have seen in a space no greater
than the length and height in this sleep
ing car berth, in a Chinese tenement
quarter in San Francisco, the home of
tweh e Chinamen. In that space they
actually lived jes, actually lived most
of their time. There they crouched
(all doubled up,) and there they cooked
ate, slept, and, in a word, lived. They
cooked with a little lamp a mes of
stuff that they import from China,
which, like their rice food, is very
cheap, and a mere pittance in the way
of earnings on the street will supply
them fooa and clothes for an indeti
nite time. A few cents per day is
more to them than a dollar to the com
monest American laborer. Hence the
lowest grade of poor paid labor retires
before; them as it would before a pes
tilence.
That is not all. Thev have no as
similation whatever to Caucasian civ
ilization. Tho negro assimilates with
the Caucasian. He adopts our civili
zition professes our leligion works
for our wages, and is a customer for.
everything that civilization produces.
Hence (using a figure of physiology)
wc can take him up in the circulation
of the body politic and assimilate him
make a man and'a brother of him, as
the phrase goes; but not so in the
least degree with the Cliiuaman.
And this brings me to say that one
of the great questions that uow press
upon Congress and the country for
immediate attention and solution is
what shall we do with reference to
Chinese immigration? We have al
ways refused to citizenize them; shall
we continue the treaty under which
they are immigrating to our shores?
THE BLOODY SIIIUT.
Already in the outset of a National
campaign, the taunt is flung out by its
opponents; that thetevivalof the bitter
memories of the war is the only argu
ment of the Republican party. De
mands, not pouched in sadness but in
defiant insolence are made; that the
'bloody shirt" be buried out of sight
and the causes, the conduct, the wounds
of tho war, be entombed with it. This
can not be. It would be well, indeed,
for the Democratic part', if the.written
Ltoioi-y wt t:. jtua'i t't'j-&io were
forgotten, but how can it be? Can a
mother forget her travail, can she for
get her coffined dead? Can a uatiou
forget her slain? Should Greece for
get her Marathon Sparta her Ther
mopylae Or hhould Columbia forget
the graves of those who laid down
their lives for her; or even those
of the southern victims who were
crushed under the wheels of their
own over-weening ambitiou? Never!
So lontj as the flowers bloom,
and tho grass grows green, over the
dead of the rebellion, just so long will
it be remembered that those graves are
the fruitof Democratic ambition. Just
so long as the flag waves, no matter
how bright the sunlight that gilds its
stripes and" stars, it will bear one
bloody spot that time never will never
can obliterate; for it is the record of
the price of liberty and unity. Let it
stay. Call it the "bloody shirt" if you
will, but never forget the party whose
political crimes wrought the stain.
Rememberitsadl v;but not in bitterness;
as a warning like that, that besmeared
the door posts of Israel and do not
forget that it means death to national
unity should the Democracy e'ver ob
tain national power again. T)ie mt m
ory of the great crime of the Southern
Democracy and thoir allies should be
cherished,not in bitterness; or in anger,
but with a stern resolution that the
treacherous, pilote,wh(ouldhave
wrecKed us, shall never be entrusted
with the helm again.

One important question to miners
which has never been satisfactorily
settled is, what constitutes $100 worth
of labor and improvements ? We often
hear of trouble resulting from claims
being jumped by parties who Hold that
the necessary amount of work required
by the IT. S. statutes has not been
done in the manner prescribed by law.
Some persons have expended annuallv
S75 or 80 for actual labor and 20 or
$25 for tools and other material, mak
ing the total of $100. The parties
who have re-located such claims hold
that actual labor to the value of $100
must be performed, independent of cost
of material used, etp. Therla.w on this
point is not very definite and allows of
a liberal construction. The following
is the literal reading of the statutes:
"On each claim located after the 10th
day of May, 1872, and until a patent
has beeu issued therefor, not less than
$100 worth of labor shall be performed
or improvements made during each

The Commissioner of the GenerafLand
Offiie has never, to our knowledge, de
cided as to whether the money expend
ed for ponder, fuse, toohs, etc., can be
counted as part of tho $100 worth of
labor required. Until such decision is
rendered, miners will have to be con
trolled by the by-laws of their own dis
tricts, each mining" district being ac
corded the right to make regulations
for its own government, not in conflict
with the laws of the "United States, or
of the State or Territory in which the
district is situated. Mining it Scien

THE CHINESE PL.lIVK.
The chief objection, made bv the De
mocracy, to the Chinese plank in the
National Republican platform is: that
it does not point out to Congress the
.proper method of restricting Chinese
immigration. This was hardly the du
ty of a political body; as Congress is
supposed to have intelligence enough
witli'n itself to devise' the proper mode
for the settlement of this question It
was sufficient that the Republican
party expresfed itself clearly against
the unrestricted immigration of an
alien race, unfit for American citizen
ship and placed itself on the record as
demanding -a modification of the pres
ent treaty; Any attempt to instruct
Congress os to the manner of restrict
ion vould have bpen resided ae oouim-'J
what presumptive .and would have
made the Convention a laughing stock:
It is enough to know that an impera
tive demand for Chinese icstrictiou is
made by the Republican party and
that the enunciations of the conven-i
tion can not well be ignored by the
members of that party in Congress.
Democracy, must have something to
talk about, however, and they mav
just as well amuse themselves with
this plank as with anv other, but "no
imperfections in it will save them.
from shipwreck.
TOE SENTINEL.
It is sneeringly remarked that the
"Sentinel", has returned to Republi.
canism since the election. This paper
never departed from, never wavered
in its advocacy of Republican princi
ples but is in no sense a party organ,
grinding out whatever music is set for
it by party leaders. Coming from a
race, whose swords have always been
wet with 'the blood of tyranny, we
would 'be ashamed to wear the collar
of political servitude. We deprecate
the tyranny cf party;and pily a-k men
to be supporters of Republican princi
ples, because they arc most conducive
to good order, good government, na
tional credit, individual freedom and
the w idest measure of justice to nil
creeds and clasps. We o.we no alle
giance to aifarty; because of the adopt-
;iori.o.a party name butrieel-impelled:
from a sense of right to stand by tho
policy that sav ed, restored and cement
ed again, the tottering fabric of States
into a solid and respected government.
In advocating an independent county
t cket we asserted Republicanism riqhts
in their fullest sense because we believ
ed it the best public policy; but in a
national campaign we must adopt the
code of political principles, that ac
cord best with one own sense of right
and justice.
HOW To KEEP A SITUATION.
Be ready to throw in an odd half
hour or an honr's time when it will be
an accommodation,- and don't seem to
make a merit of it. Do it heartily.
Though not a word be said your em
ployer will mak a note of it. Make
yourself indispensable to him and he
will lose many of the opposite kfnd
before he will part with you. Those
young -men who watch the clock to see
the very moment their work'ng hour is
up who leave, no matter what state
tha work may be in, at precisely the
instant who calculate the exact
amount tney can slight their work and
yet not get reproved i)J always bb
