3 M9C A' HE OREGON SENl'INEL JACK8CN"VH,l.K i Wednesday, August 25, 1880. FOR PRESIDENT, J AS. A. GARFIELD. Of Ohio. FOR VICE PRESIDENT, CHESTER A. ARTHUR O'f New York. PRESIDENTIAL ELECTORS, GEO.B. CTJRRY, of Grant. E. L. APPLEGATE.ofLinn. C. B. W VTON, of Lake. EDITORIAL MlSCELliANY, The- South, having repudiated all its own debts, will try to repudiate our national debt when the rebel Generals become matt rs of the Government It is hard to shake off a bad habit The New York "Tribune" says: "The Republican administrations have paid offono-third of the debt contract ed through a Democratic rebellion. The people feel like trusting the same party to pay off the remaining two thirds." The men Garfield most resembles as an orator are Abraham Lincoln and Daniel Webster. Now that the full light is being turned on his speeches of the past, they are found to abound in splendid passages, not elocutionary effects, but heartfelt truths nobly ut tered. The South was awarded thirty-five additional representatives in Congress because of the colored vote. It propo ses to suppress this vole and steal the thirtv-five seats which represent it. This is called "reconciliation," and the process is declared to be a "free and fair ballot." The man who demurs to this stylo of politics iS a "stirrer-up of sectional strife." There is not a man in the Republi can party who isn't confident of victory and who isn't willing to take off his coat and work to help win it That is what makes the outlook so bright. Then, too, Providence is once more on tho Republican side. The bountiful harvests, the briskness of trade, and the demand for labor all contribute to mako Republican votes. The N. Y. "Tribune," of Aug. 20th, '- V1B llff'TI lSSllPtl tn by the Republi- State Committee of Alabama, which sets forth with remarkablo clear ness and exactness of statement .tie fraud committed by the Democrats at the late election in that State. This a'ldress presents sufficient attested de tails to furnish every one who reads it means of estimating the sum of the Democratic villainy just perpetrated in Alabama. This manufacturers of New Jersey becoming alarmed by the prospect of disorder that would follow the election of Hancock, have organized themselves at Trenton, so as to promote in every possible way the success of Garfield. They havo issued an address calling upon the vast army of workmen, me chanics, merchants, manufacturers, ag riculturists, and capitalists, to labor to maintain the present unparalelled prosperity-of our country. These clear headed business men foresee tho dan gers of a rebel raid upon the United S.ates Treasury. The Baltimore "Gazette" can't un derstand why the Boys in Blue should prefer .Garfield to a "real general." In the way of thinking 'that prevails among. Americans generally that man is the "real general" who leaves his home and his civil avocation, whatever it may be,- in the time of his country's peril, and buckling on his accoutre ments goes to the front and wins fame and glory by his acts. The man who is born to the life of a soldier who is trained up from youth as a profession al soldier and goes into his country's battles with-halfa heart is. not a "real general." Give us the man who is a hero by reason of his own volun tary acts, and not tho man who has greatness jut upon him by tho unas sisted force of circumstances. The facts about "Order No. 40," about which so much is now said are siniply these. When Hancock assum ed command of the military depart ment of Louisiaua and Texas, in 1867, ho conceived the idea of making some very radical changes in the stato of alFuire as he found them. Gen. Sheri dan had, while in command, merely used his military authority to sustain he loyal people and their local gov ernment, which had been chosen by a majority oi tho voters of the state. Hancock issued a general order, num. bored 40, which reversed this and boosted the rebels into power instead. The order was all right enough, "osten sibly, perhaps, but infamously wrong in puqwse and application. It was tho practical working of this order that endeared Hancock to the South. CK SICk SEX.1T0R e THE POLITICAL sitcaiio.v iv thc cast. Senator Grover has been heard from. He is still confined to his sick room in the State of New "Xork. In a letter to Wm. H. Watkinds, under date of Aug. 2d, he writes : I am working along slowly. Cerebro spinal inflammation, in chronic form and serious, is difficult of cure,ind constant treatment is required. I am afraid I will not be able to work in the canvass this Fall. In another part of his letter he says: Hancock and English will carry New York, Connecticut and New Jersey .sure. It is all right they will be elected. Wo had no idea that bodjly afflic tion, such as Mr. Grover has-been heir to for the past two years, had any tendency to make enthusiastic. To bo shut up in a sick room, away from the world and perhaps buried in a pile of partizan newspapers, must afford supe rior facilities for becoming posted on the drift of public sentiment But thero is nothing like a sick man get ting" his daily political inspirations from that immacculate of all Demo cratic authorities, the New York "Sun." What a pity our invalid Sen ator does not live near enough to that other staunch and truthful, Democrat ic authority, the Portland "Standard?" How much more intense his enthusi asm for Hancock would be, and how very cheering to the "faithful'' he could make his sick room letters. We regret Senator Grover's continued physical and mental inability, which has so lpng prevented him from occu pying Iiis seat in Congress, and has deprived Oregon of her share of rep resentation in the national legislature. In-justice to the people of the State of Oregon, wo ask, would it not under tho circumstances, be patriotic for Mr Grover to resign the seat he does not fill, and thus give some one else a chance to represent Oregon in tho United States Senate how Trier WILL 10TE. A hardy German in New York writes a letter to the Chicago "Trib une" about the feeling among his countrymen in that State, from which we clip the following: You are right in saying that the German-Americans of this State hold the balance of tho political power; and as they were opposed to the "military" idea in the Republican party, so they will remain opposed V the same idea in tho Democratic party, comparing, aR they do, the difference between the two candidates-one a volunteer patriot and the other tho professional "sab reur" of tho arm of Government. It is not all to the credit of the Democracy that the "sabreur" whom they put up happens to have worn the blue; they could not do otherwise; but there is enough of the gray in his com plexion since he turned out the John sonian idea at New Orleans by orders, and signified his readiness to obey any orders from tho "great fraud of 1876," if the latter would pretend to have been elected on the 3d .f March, 1877. Do not give yourselves any alarm or uneasiness about the German-Americans of this Stnte, for they are first, last and all the time for their material interests, and the Democratic party docs not furnish them guarantees to mako them Democratic mongrels in this national crisis. On a question of State or municipal administration, they divide them selves with Democrats and Republi cans, because they choose to select the best individuals to office, according to their sense of right and wrong; but on a question of national importance, striking at the existence of the public credit and the par; specie value of the dollar currency, thee Germans will be found on the side of the Republican candidates, who they know absolutely represents their idea 'of national sol vency, as he represented their idea of a "united" nation. Put it down, Mr. Editor, that the vote of New York State will be saved to Garfield by the German-Americans. m Our cotemporary of the "Democratic Times," with an air of assurance, says! "The Mexican war veterans are all for Hancock" "If he refers to tho MexL .can war veterans residing in Southern Oregon, wo think we can show that our neighbor is mistaken. There are Dot very many of this class of citi zens among us, but what there is of them, is pretty evenly divided between Garfield and Hancock. No use draw ing on your imagination, neighbor? to prop up your favorite candidate. It don't pay to try and make the people beliove an untruth. Canada is again without royalty. Princess Louise evidently found the free air of America uncongenial, and sho has taken her departure for more royal shores. Thus ends the first ex periment of transplanting a scion of the British royal family to American soil. "JLSB 8TTLL THY TOME." As soon as anybody who has ever been known to vote tlw Republican ticket gives in his adhesion to Han cock tho fact is at once heralded abroad in the Democratic papers, and a great ado is made about it, as show ing that tho Cincinnati nominations are . gaining favor with the people. We have heretofore avoided publish ing'tho list of prominent Democrats who havo declared for Garfield, for the simple reason that we thought our space was too limited to justify pub lishing the same. But we think we are safe in saying, that where one Re publican goes over to Hancock, there are five Democrats who declare for J Garfield. The fact is Garfield h steadily growing in the estimation of the people, 'notwithstanding the per sistant charges of corruption and brib ery heaped against him by the dishon est tyros of the Democratic press, and which charges have time and again been disproved as utterly groundless. To show how little effect these accusa tions have, even among sensible Dem ocrats, we need only mention that the papers published in the East teem with accounts of changes of lead ing Democrats to the side of Gen Gar field. The principal cause alleged is the danger to the country that will fol low upon the accession of the Demo cratic party to power in all the branches of the Government Col. John C. Bell, of Salem, a life long Democrat, and who was the Dem ocratic candidate for State Treasurer in 1866, has announced his intention Of voting for James A. Garfield for President The Democratic "Messenger," Fre mont, Ohio, one of tho most outspoken Democratic sheets in the State, has come out for Garfield and Arthur. It says "that a bona fide vote of the American people will loudly call on General Garfield to take the reigns of the Government for four years, from March 4, 1881." Captain William B. W. Hallet, heretofore a prominent Democrat of Rhode Island, has resigned his mem bership of the Democratic City Com mittee of Providence, having decided to act with the Republicans hence forth. David D. Bruce, Esq., a leading law yer and a Democrat of some promi nence at Pittsburg, Penn., has de clared in favor of Garfield and Arthur. Nearly every Republican club in Pennsylvania can number from four to twenty Democrats on its rolls, who will vote for Garfield and Arthur. Church Repairs. The Louse of worship of the M. E. Church, is the oldest Church edifice in Southern Ore gon, having stood since 1853. For a quarter of a century all denominations who had any desire of doing so have freely worshipped here. But time is telling on the venerable structure. Within the past two years somerepa;rs have been made, among them a nsw roof and a now floor, but there re still other needful repairs which should be .made before a great while. Some of the plastering overhead has lately come down, and more threatens to follow; the window frames also are warped and outof gear, and window lights broken. We understand the ladies have for some weeks been advising among them selves as to the best method of raising funds to repair the old pioneer church house, and tliey desire us to say that they soon contemplate giving an en tertainment for that purpose.
