T - l'HE OREGON SENTINEL JACK.ONVIt.t.K t "Wednesdat, July 21, 1880. FOR PRESIDENT, JAS. A. GARFIELD. Of Ohio' FOR VICE PRESIDENT, CHESTER A. ARTHUR Of New York. PRESIDENTIAL ELECTORS, GEO. B. CURRY, of Grant E. L. APPLEGATE, of Linn. C.B.WATcON.ofLake. Owing to the great unpopularity ot English in the Hosier Slate, an effort is being made to induce him to resign in favor of McDonald; he refuses to yield. (j Gen. Garfield'8 letter of acceptance will appear next week. It is a manly plain spoken and courageous document and has the ring of the true metal nbout it The Oregon Legislature which meets the second Monday in September is politically composed as follows: Sen ate, Republicans 16; Democrats 13; .Independent 1; House, Republicans 39; Democrats 21. Republican majoriiy in Senate 2, in Houso 18; on joint ballot '20. .A. Democratic paper says "Han cock is an experience d and able Gen eral." True. But what is it that the American people need most in time of peace! Is it an experienced and able military general, or an experienced and able statesman? Certainly tho latter, and Garfield is the man. The Hartford 'Courant" says: "The people of the country are called upon to decide between the two great par ties, to judge of their tendencies as hhown by their deeds. This is the only question of the contest, and it can not be obscured by any bide issues. And here is just where Gen. Hancock is hopelessly handicapjied." Gen. Hancock, the valiant soldier and upright citizen, stands in a very different relation to the people from Gen. Hancock (he Democratic nomi nee for President. In the latter ca paeity he is the 6guro head of a party into the hands of whose actual leaders it would be dangerous to entrust (he administration of the government. The Chicago "Times" (Dem.) says zne xujjiutmcan parry will enter I lie" contest with an important advantage over the party that has passed by all its statesmen and taken for its standard bearer a soldier witlno experience or 'known faculty of political leadership. Therefore it is that the nomination of Gen. Hancock is a mistake if not a blunder. Ho is not the man for leader of a political party in this or in any other political emergency." President Chadbourne of Williams College says: "Tho college life of Gen. Garfield was so rounded, so pure, so in accordance with what it ought to bo in all respects, that I can add nothing to it by eulogizine him. It was a noble college life; there are no stories to bo told of Gen. Garfield as a college stu dent On the contrary, everything about him was high and noble and manly; the man in college gave prom ise of what the man is to-day.". The Mississippi "Star" thus gives the world a sample of the true-spirit of tho Southern Democracy: "Inaugu rate social ostracism against etery VKte man North or South that gives his support to the building up of the Republican party, discountenance any man who will go on or assist in mak ing the bend of any man elected on the Rpublican ticket; refuse to have dealings of any sort with the Republi can party, and show the world that you are in truth and deed a true Democrat1' Says the New York "Times:" "The situation in all important respects may be regarded as simply this: The t o parties go before the country on what they have done or failed to do, with the assurance on the oart of the Re publicans that all tho best tendencies of the party will be promoted by the election of its candidate, and with the probability on the Democratic side that the tendencies of that partv toward error in doctrine and in prac tice M'ill find no restraint from its can didate." Something over two years ago Gen eral Garfield, at Faneuil Hall, express ed his opinion as to when the work of the Republican party would be done There is nothing ambiguous about the language he employed. Anyone can understand what he meant 'when he Raid that tho work of the party would be completed, then, and not before: "When it is just as safe and just as honorable for a good citizen of South Carolina to be a Republican there, as it is for a good citizen of Massachusetts to be a Democrat here." is ensr. Hancock a i'i;svma.ma.nt Tho Philadelphia "Press" asks this question, and says: Though Gen. Hahcock is credited to Pennsylvania, he has been but a nom inal resident of the state since 1840, when a lad of sixteen he began his four years' cadetship at our National Mili tary academy. The forty subsequent j ears of his life he spent successively in West Point, Indian Territory, Mex ico, Missouri, Utah, California, Vir ginia, Louisiana, again in Missouri, then in Dakota, and again in New York state, but in Pennsylvania he has been only a transient and occasion al visitor. He can, therefore, only in a remote and technical sense, be count ed a Pennsylvania candidate. What are his opinions in regard to a protec tive tariff is altogather unknown. Whether he has any opinions or has given the subject any thought nt all has not yet been made pub ic, nor is it of special importance that it should be. Whatever his private views may be, the declared policy of his party is against a protective tariff. If there fore, he should be elected, free trade would necessarily be the policy of his administration. This fact may strength- enGen. Hancock's candidacy elsewhere, but not in Pennsylvania. This state lus no majorities to give to any candi date on a free-trade platform. This is true, even though the candidate chauced to reside within her own limits forty years ago, and though leading a roving military life, has never since acquired a permanent residence elsewhere. TTEAVr.U' VOHDKNCC- Gen. James B. Weaver, Greenback candidate- for President, spent Sun day the 11th of Ju y in Chattanooga, Tenn. He was en-routo to Scottsburg, Ala., where he spoke the following day at the opening of the canvass in that State. He was interviewed by a "Times" reporter and spoke very can didly of the coming campaign. He is confident of his ability to carry Ala bama, Tennessee, Texas,, Mssisipp, West Virginia, Missouri and Arkansas, and says he will make heavy gains in Maine, Michigan, and Minnesota. He si 8 if he does not receive a majority of electoral votes neither of tin other candidates will, and the matter will again go to the House of Repre sentatives. If thrown into the House hu will stand an equal chance with the rest. De Ia Matyr, he claims, has the balance of power ther, aud no conces sion wiirrueiroemaneuynis partisans favorable either "to Democrats or Re publicans. Should no agreement be reached thero the matter Incomes a constitutional questicn, and it will rest with the Senate to dispoeof it He says he will stump every State he can before the election, but will confine himself to no section. Kearney, he says will lend him his support and give him California be ond doubt. OFFICIAL VOTE OF OltCCO.V. C0NGUKSSJ1A!.: John Whiteaker 18,181 hM. C.

A company of German and Ameri can capitalists are negotiating with the N. P. Railroad company for the pur chase of something over one hundred thousand acres of laud, mostly lying- east of the Pulouse river. As soon as they secuietitletolhelandsthev will sink artsian wells in the centreof each section ihat is not by nature provided with a sufficient quantity of pure water. It is the-intenteution of the company to offer liberal iududucements to immi grants and asssist in the speedy settle ment of the lands through which the O. R. fe N. Co. propose to run their line. It is stated in a Washington dis patch that documents are now in the course of prepartion and will shortly be published officially, to prove the truth of the statement that General Hancock entered into a conspiracy with Fitz-John Porter and other Democratic Generals to resist the removal of Mc Ulellan from the command of the Army of the Potomac and to depose Presi dent Lincoln and Secretary Stanton. The outlook for Peru is "becoming gloomier every day. Its troops are 'eaten in every contest in which they are engaged; its ports aro blockaded or bomliarded; its vessels are reduced in number to one wooden corvette and a half a dozen steam transports, which are compelled to hide in Clloa; its ally' Bolivia, appears more than ever inclined to turn against her. NOTES IV LAKE COIXTT. Just returned from a two weeks yisit among our sage brush neighbors, we will give some of thejmpressions received. From Linkville to Lakeview we heard nothing but sad statements of the heavy losses of stock during the last severe Winter, but as it is the season when the Assessor is enquiring into the financial standing of the pop ulation, we apprehend that some of the accounts are a little exaggerated. Many place their loss at sixty or seventy-five per cent, some at fifty, others as low as ten or fifteen per cent This seems to indicate a proportionate dif ference in the care and thrift of the ranchers, or else shows the fact that some localities are singularly favored. At all events, there seems to be plenty of cattle nil over tho county and in splendid condition, the grass being bet ter than ever known, and the losses will not be felt much this vear as steers; wintered through well, and a large amount of beef will be driven out next Fall. Tho""greatest present calamity is the almost total failure of -crops in Goose Lake valley. Putin very late on ac count of the backward Spring, they were scarcely well up till they were blighted by a cold North wind, ami a continued drought will keep gruin from maturing. Some thrifiv fanners have soun English rye grass, on the high sage lauds, aud it will make a heavy crop, one ton of which is superior to four tons of the native swamp hav. If others would follow .the example, the producing capacity of Lake county would be increased fa fey fold ami huV creds of thousands of acres of lamls, now compaiatively aluelcss, le proper ly utilized. Linkville is growing rapidly. It is now strung out nearly a half mile to the .Eastward, has three hotels, two saloons, two stoies and two livery stables, besides harness and tin shops, drug store and jewelry establishment. Here we saw the smiling face of Curly .Webb who runs a liverv stable and is apparently doing a thriving business. Our mode of locomotion was one of those sad looking quadrupeds without ancestral pride or possible hope of pos terity, but noted for appetite, and when leaving he whispered in our ear that "Webb" gave him more oats than he could get away with, and when an animal with as little conscience as a mule admits over feeding, the stable keeper will do to stay with. J. N. ?. Ji;ij.r;s rnnnino the other stable- bill will soon start for Walla Walla with a large baud of horses for that mai ket. Judging from the immense travel head ing in that direction, one would think the whole world was going there. Lakeview has trebled in size during the last three years and contains now over a hundred houses. J. H. Hoffman, our late townsman, is doing a good business and is happy. Hunt &. La tham both, forinerally of Jacksonville are running a furniture and wagon shop successfully. Tenbrook & Camp bell are keeping the "Overland" aud set the usual "good table. Lakeview boasts of no church, but singular to say its two saloons aro scrupulously closed on Sundays in obedience to the law, and the day is therefore one of rest and quiet. Business in the Land Office is very dull, Conn the Receiver, being engaged in merchandising and and the Register, J. H. Evans, has commenced putting up eight hundred tons of hav to keep himself out of mis chief. Paisley, a new town on the Chewaucan ri er forty miles North of Lakeview, bids fair to be quite a place in good time. It is evidently a warm er climate than nny other portion of Lake, for in the garden of Mr. J. P. Cochran we saw tomatoes in full bloom and watermelons and cantelopes doing well. A good hotel is kept here by W. H. Miller formerly of Linkville, and the delicious trout on his table is the only thing that, could turn one away from tho tender, juicy leef of the bunch" grass region. Stock suffered but little in the Ghewaucan valley, the. snow full being light and the ranchers having driven their bands to tho desert, beyond Lake Abert, where they win tered well. There eems to be a feel ing of depression among the people of Lake but it is more on account of short crops than fromloss of stock. There is no reason for it however, as the nat ural seisons of the county will soon bring prosperity again. As a general thing the streams and swamps are un usually full and in many places it will be nearly impossible to cut the wild hay crop. Mosquitoes are very husb and if any of our readers don't believe it let them go and feel for themselves. We have as much admiration for Gen. Hancock's soldierly career as any one, and that admiration dates back some 16 years, to a time when thpse new-born admirers who are now "pointing with pride to his soldierly record" to quote their own language were execrating the "brutal butcher," as they styled him then, for sending his soldiers into the "shambles" and for "desolating Southern homes."
