The two parties have again met at "the polling places throughout theBtate and the result is a splendid political triumph. The dis1!nguished joung Representative in Congress, H. C. George, has been endorsed by his con stituency by a heavily increased ma jority; thus attesting their faith in his ability and endorsing his manlyr hon- 1 est and efficient course as a worker for the people's interests. The vote oyer the whole state indicates that it is sol idly Republican, and as it fills up with civilized people with live, progressive ideas the Republican strength will in crease. While they may win a few county officers, especially in counties remote from the civilized centers of population, the Democracy may, for once and all, understand that the state, is henceforth to be governed and con trolled by" the party of progress and economy. The election is a severe n liuke to the party that so shamefully squandered the public funds during eight years of its administration and fellows that it is no longer considered worthy of public confidence. It now only remains for the Republicans to prove, by the strictest integrity and honest administration of public affairs, that it is worthy and its lease of pow er will be long in our young and pros perous State. If the conduct of the present State officers, (again elected). ror ine past lour years be taken as an index then we may look forward with confidence for a pure and economic ad ministration for four years more, and we believe no citizen of the State will be disappointed. The Contily llcction. "We presume there will be a large amount of bragging done by the Dem , ocracy of this county and many mutual congratulations at a substantial victory. Why should they not win? They have ft clean majority on the State ticket of over three hundred and a candidate -with" a. half way claim to respectability ought- to be ashamed if he could not -'get almost as large an endorsement by his party. Mauy however have fallen greatly short and some ought to feel particularly proud of the vote received. - This is a clear indication that thinjrs are mixed and changing and that the ti.ae is coming when whisky heads and imbealm can no longer secure election in Jackson county biniply because they are in with a ring, and when men will no longer be lashed with a party whip into the support of improper candidates. The Republicans of. Jackson county de serve especial credit for their pluck in standing up against such a solid major ity and the day is coining when they will lie able to defeat it. We bow to the will of the majority as all should and have no fault to find hoping that tho public interests will notsuffer. The Legislative ticket elected by the Dem ocracy is tne most respectable one for miny years and there is reason for a little hope that the interests of this end of the State will not be as complete v neglected as they have been, and that our Representatives will not be swal lowed up and lost at the State capital. Tho Democracy miy laugh but thev .ought to cry with shame because their majorifies are not larger than they are. A Forced Isne. A large number of the actual local politicians of this county saw fit, un necessarily, to raise the Court House qustion. at the last election. Men rode day and night warning Democrats and Republicns not to vote for Cook or Ficke as thef were in favor of building a Court House at Jackson ville, and they must be defeated. Thus the issue was fairly made and forced on the voters. Being made it, of course, was accepted and the anti Court House advocates were liaudsomu ly beaten. The logical conclusion is; that' the majority have decided1 in fa , xer of a- new building and while, can didly, we know nothing whatever of .Mr. Cook's intentions or of his opinion, it does seem as if the people have pointed out his duty and we presume he will do it without squandering the people's money or increasing the rate of'taxation in the least. It is reported that General Winfield Scotb Hancock, of Pennsylvania, the Democratic candidate for President in 1880, is to be nominated for Governor of Pennsylvania by the Democrats. -General Hancock was the guest of Jere Black, at York, Pennsylvania, last Sat urday and Sunday, and a prominent Republican from Harrisburg, who is now in New York, says that there was - a conference at Black's house of many Democratic leaders in the State, and that it is believed that the object of the conference was to nominate Han cock for Governor. This gentleman says that Hancock's military record would discount that of Beaver, and that the fight between the Republican fac tions would make biB election pretty ,sure. Once elected Governor for Penn sylvania, it is believed he will be in a (Straight line for a re-nomination for President uit t, u u is -Ti?rttjVYi: Oregon Republican. ."wtost nn-rix-o Stato TAolE.ot jQloottsci. MAJORITIES RANGING FROM 1,500 TO 3,000. LEGISLATURE REPUBLICAN ON JOINT BALLOT. The latest news recefved from the- State election held last Monday shows that tho -Republicans have elected the entire ticket by majorities ranging from 3,000 down to about 1,500. Congress man George leads the ticket in every county heard from and he is ttie first Member of Congress ever elected to a second term from the State of Oregon. Treasurer Hirt-eh and Justice-of the Supreme Court Lord run some behind the balance of the ticket but their ma jorities will come up to 1,500. The Legiilature will be very close but the latest returns up to the time of going to press stato trie Republicans have a majority of 14 on joint ballot... This makes a clean sweep for the Republi cans in the State and also-alio a which way the wind blows on the Pacific Coast. "Very meagre returns have been received here from the different county's and the following is the best we can give this week: In jckson county the DemoeratS' elect their entire ticket by from 150 to 35 majority. Josphine county elects Thornton, Republican, to the Legisla ture by 40 majority, and Nickersou and Crcckett, candidates for Clerk and County Judge on the People's ticket are also elected by small majorities. Nothing definite has yet been heard from Lake county, but from the scat tering returns received it is probable that the Democrats will carry it by an increased majority and elect their county ticket throughout. Best infor mation obtainable for District Attor ney shows that the vote between Mer ritt and Kent will be very close in Jackson county, probably not more tfean 10 either way. Josephine coun ty will probably give Kent about 40 majority and Lake is expected to give him about a hundred more, making his election sure. George's majority in Multnomah county is 3,060 Moody, gets about 1, 400, Lord, 1,000 and the entire Kepub lican legislatio and county ticket is elected by about 1,000 majority. Dispatches from Dallas report all of the Republican Representatives elected- In Washington tho Republican-State ticket has nearly 300 majority. In Clackamas it has 175 to 200. In Linn the Democratic majorities on the State ticket are, Fenton, li)0: Smith, 250. Democratic Legislative 175 majority. County ticket 190. The Republicans elect one Represen tative, (Sappington,) in Washington county. Humpreys is beaten by about 70, and Tucker by about 30 or 40. In Clackamas county the Republicans lose the Senator and one Representa tive, and elect three Representatives. Myers, (Dem.) is elected Senator by 90 majority over Apperson. In Marion rounty the Republicans have a majority of about 700 on the State ticket and a'so elect their entire Legislative and county ticket. Douglas county elects the entire Re pepublican ticket with the exception of County Judge. The vote on some of the county officers was very close the majorities ranging down as low as twenty. Latest from Josephine From R. M Garrett, mail carrier on tho Waldo route, we learn the following election news: Of the candidates elected honors seom "to be easy as both parties have elected five of their candidates. The Republicans have a little the best of it, however, as they elect their Represen tative, Thornton, by 34 majority. They also elect F. M. Nickerson Coun ty Clerk by a majority of 34. Garrett Crockett, County Judge by 140 major ity, and both of the County Commis sioner's elect were nominees of the In dependent party. The rest of the Democratic ticket with the exception of Dan Sheehan on the People's ticket for Coroner, was elected. T. B. Kent for District Attorney carried the coun ty by a majority of. 70. The Court House question seemed to figure quite conspicuously 'in the different precincts of the county at the election last Monday. The result would indicate that now buildings are necessary..

SOCTBEB5C OEEGO.1. Extension of the O. S: C. R. R south to the California line a work now in active, progress will develop one of the best sections of Oregon, a section long settled and fertile, but which has progressed but little for twenty years because of its complete isolation. The series of valleys, run ning north and south, which commence at the southern end of the Umpqua pass and extend to the California line, nre highly productive and possess a more equitable and a pleaanterc'.imate than either western or eastern Oregon. Rains are seasonable and unfailing," but less frequent than in the Willam ette valley, and the excessive dryness of eastern Oregon is unknown. There is a happy mean between the extremes of wet and dry the climate of Cali fornia without its blighting drouths, with a little less sunshine and with cooler nights. The most considerable of these val leys is that of the Rogup river, a rap id and unnavigable stream, which runs north for nearly forty miles and then turns abruptly toward the ocean. The width of Rogue river valley is from two to fifteen miles, and throughout its length of forty miles or more it is dotted with "places" which, though; rich in soil, yield but little. The only market iu-tliat for bread, rtgftaUa. and meat for miners, who, to the num ber of six hundred or more, operate in the country, and of tho overland stage company for for.ige. The only way "out" is over a difficult mountain road, the distance from Jacksonville which lies in the heart of the valley and is its central productive point to the nearest railroad station being one hun dred miles. Exportation of products is of course an impossibility and what cannot be consumed at home is worth less. It would not be surprising if a country so cut off from tho world should stand still while the regions better situated have advanced; and the surprise is that within itself it has grown rich not rich in the sense of many and great enterprises and in a great population, but in a quiet and wholesome thrift. The land will produce anything which grows in- a temperate climate grain, including corn, which thrives nowhere else in Oregon; fruits, in cluding the grape, which, also, will not ripen elsewhere; vegetables of every variety, including the .sweet potato, and of tie finest quality, and pasturage of the best character. The wool of this whole region is of fine quality and is manufactured by a small local factory at Ashland. Lands are cheap verv cheap compared with the prices com monly paid in the "Willamette valley, while they are equally well "laid" and productive except for their .Isolation. But the railroad to be completed in two yeare will work a wonderful trans formation. Population will pour in, old lands will be cultivated, new lands opened and prices will advance. Within three years there will be a Southern Oregon boom No lands in Orpgon are better worth buyin" at this time, or belter worth holding on to thin the lands of Rogue river val ley. No section of the northwest offers a finer field for investment or settlement than the region about Jack sonvil'e. "Oregonian" At the recent yearly meeting of the Friends in Providence, Rhode Island. a paper was read showing that 'there are 400,000 opium eaters in the United States, and that about 300,000 pounds of the drug are imported every year. In China there are over 2,000.000 opium smokers, who spend 3125,000, 000 a year for the "pleasure." The British government in India derives a net revenue of about $40,000,000 from opium. The British forced the opium naoiD on tne unihese, and have been instrumental in introducing t.tin Ar, everywhere. BUYING fr0m 20 00 a set 2 50 8 00 100 -rf50 ' '2 00 "75 50 IC it ... .
