q The Unionist says that Hon.
John Minto brought to town a few
days ago, the best lot of wool ever
produced
in Oregon. It was fine
Merino, put up in good condition,
and will challenge comparison with
any clip ever housed in the State.
GThc total weight was 1300 pounds;
and the heaviest fleece in the lot
weighed nineteen pounds. M. A.
Stratton & Co. were the purchasers,
nntP the price eighteen cents per
pound.
They ship it to Lozan
EreresPSan
l'rancisco. Wc think
it not very creditable to our Oregon
0
manufacturing enterprise that such
a superior lot of home produced wool
should be allowed to pass by all our
factories, to swell the sljle and credit
of California establishments. It will
no doubt come back to us ia the form
of " Superior Cassimere" of Califor
nia make, while our factories will
continue to import coarse Mexican
:ud half-breed wool from California
to work into fabrics for our own con
EumptLon. When snch a valuable
taple is produced by Oregon Farm
ers, Oregon manufacturers ought to
buy and use it. To do bo will profit
themselves as well 33 enrich the
State. That lot of wool will bring
f'fl'J fivc atl(3 sixty cents a pound in
New York or Boston. Our manufac
turers let foreign buyers take it at
eighteen, cents. Shall wc wonder
beieaficr that Oregon fabrics are be
low par in the market.
A JUEMOC11ATIC TRIUMPH
AVIIAT IS ITi
The so-called Democratic party of
Oregon has carried the election in n
majority of the counties in the State.
Jo. Smith is elected to Congress, and
our State Legislature is largely
Democratic 1 3 there a man in Ore
gon, or any where else, who can tell
us what this triumph means? Do
those Union men who have assisted
in bringing about the " defeat of the
Union party, know what they have
been in favor of? Has any Demo
cratic speaker, or writer, told the peo
ple what they propose to do? Is there
anything in the platform of the party
in this State which indicates an affir
mative policy on any of the real is
sues now before the people? In
short, do the people really know what
modern Democracy is ?
Democratic speakers raid writers
have not hesitated to tell the people
that they are opposed to " negro
equality," " negro suffrage," and a
" bonded aristocracy," but they have
not told them how they propose to
avert this long catalogue of imagina
ry evils. We believe that thousands
of men in Oregon have voted the
Democratic ticket, under the impres
sion that they were simply voting
Rgainst certain abuses, and temporal
ry errors of the Union party. The
statement has been made and con-;
stantly adhered to, by Democratic1
leaders that the Union party is com.
milted in favor of negro suffrage in
all the States, and some Union men
have been induced to believe it and
have voted with the Democracy"
to avert the imaginary terrors of ne
erro suffrage. The ; Democracy"
have acted upon the plan suggested
in the Albany Democrat that a "lie
well told, and constantly adhered to,
is as good as the truth,"., and the re
sult of the election seems to justify
the assumption.
The magical name of" Democracy"
has been used to collect together ev
cry dement of opposition under the
war cry of " nigger" and " bonds!"
But let us see if we can ascertain
what is ttie controlling element of the
Democratic party. If we can, we
vill be able to form some idea of its
affirmative policy. The controlling
idea of the party was frankly related
by Mr. II. W. Vaughn, a Democrat
ic candidate for the Legislature, in
one of his speeches in the late can.
vass in this county. When pressed
for an exposition of the affirmative
policy of the Democratic party, he
said :
" I will tell you what wo propose
to do. We propose to turn nil re
publicans out of office, and put Dem
ocrats in their places !''
In this statement we find an ad
mission that the controlling idea of
the Democratic party is a determina
tion to get into office. The truth is
the species are hungry, and the desire
for office is the "ruling passion, strong
in death."
But if we will carefully study the
history of the Democratic party du
ring the last seven years, and find out
who are its pi t sent recognized lea
dcrs, we shall find that the control-
ing element of the party is made up
of that class of men who either open
ly favored secession, or secretly con
nived at it, who opposed coercion,
used every effort to make the war
what they declared it to be a fail
ure, who rejoiced at our defeats,
and mourned over our triumphs, who
laughed at our calamities, and
sneered at our success. We shall
find that its organization is control
led by secessionists ; and every man
who has voted the Democratic ticket,
has cast a vote which is interpreted
to mean an endorsement of all the
party has done, as well as all it has
refused to do.
The leaders of the party know that
the uegro equality war cry is all a
humbug, used merely to secure votes,
and put Democrats in office. Their
object is to roll back the tide of civ
iliz ition as much as possible. They
have opposed every step, and will
undo all wc have done, so far as it
shall be in their power. There can
be no doubt that the ultimate object
of Democratic leaders, is the restora
tion of slavery, and the repudiation
of the national debt.
In this county, those objects were
very poorly disguised. They sigh
for the good old days when the froth
ing hound was on the fugitive's track;
when girls with blue eyes, and flaxen
hair, in whose veins there yet linger
ed the slightest trace of African blood,
were sold at the auction block to the
highest bidder.
To accomplish these objects they
scruple at nothing. In Ohio they
have disfranchised all disabled sol
diers in kcspitals, and all students in
colleges, simply because they know
such men never vote the Democratic
ticket.
We have no argument with men
who arc naturally and instinctively
secessionists ; their proper place is
in the Democratic party, but to all
Union men we say: Come out from
among them !.-..

Kelsay (Union) is elected Judge in
the same.
In Washington county Logan
has a majority of 147. The majori
ties for the Union County Ticket
range from ISO lowest, to 232 high
est. Col. Cornelius recieved 170
majority for joint Senator.
We are not disposed to put on
a long face, and whine at the result.
For our own part, we did the best
we knew for success and while wc
are not given to complaining of neg
lect of others, we may be allowed to
suggest that a more liberal circula-.
tion of Campaign Documents would
surely have changed the result. The
Oregon Herald has been sent to
nearly every voter in this county for
eight or ten weeks past, at a mere
nominal cost; and where a man re
fused to pay for it has had it forced
to his address gratis. Say what you
will that is where the Democracy
made their gains. We trust that
the lessons of the past will have a
salutary effect on our party in the
future.
The Record of Monday, says:
The whole of .Friday was occupied
by Judge Boise at Chambers in hear
ing the argument of Messrs Gibbs,
Hill and Whitson, cn the application
of which we made mention Saturday,
ostensibly on the part of the State of
Oregon, but really on the part of the
west side Railroad Company, for
leave to bring an action in the nature
of a quo warranto against tho Oregon
Central Hail road Company. The
argument on the part of the Company
was to commence Saturday morning.
When the court then came together,
however, the proceedings was termin.
ated rather abruptly by the presenta
tion of an affidavit by Mr. Mitchell
showing that the same questions were
now under consideration by Judge
Upton in a case pending before him.
Judge Boise thereupon declined to
giant leave to bring another action
while one involving the same ques
tions was pending in another court.
So Mr. Gaston goes out of court
again. It is unfortunate that any
great public enterprise should be em
barrassed end annoyed by a series of
petty law suits such as have been in
augurated during the past year
against the Oregon Central Hail
road Company. The public who are
deeply interested will be relieved to
know that they have all proved
harmless. The great enterprise is
still progressing. About one hun
dred aDd sixty men are at work, and
I the contractors disbursing theirmonev
at tne rate of over live hundred dol
lars per day. This is an annoyance
to the enemies of the road, but thev
fortunately cannot bring any Jaw-suft
i that can stop or hinder it.
TELECiltAPIHC SEWS.
We take the following telegraphic news
from dispatches to the Ore-janutn.

The Pope has sent an agent to

this project.
The Philadelphia Board of trade
have reported at length upon several
very important demands of com
merce upon Congress. Among them
are enumerated:
The improvement of the commu
nications between the Pacific and At
lantic, by canal or railroad across the
Isthmus or Central America, such
works to be tronstiucted solely ou the
national account;
The removal of all obstructions to
the free passage of the largest vessels
from Lake Superior to L'ike Ontario;
The. improvement by national or
international appropriations, of all
the outlets of the Mississippi Valley ;
The removal of all obstacles to the
navigation of the Mississippi and its
tributaries ;
The subvertion of steam lines for
postal and commercial communica

ports of Mexico, Central and Soutn
America ;
Further government aid to the
Kansas Pacific Railroad throughNcw
Mexico and Arizona ;
Putting the whi.-key tax down to
50 cents on the gallon.
A resolution was referred to the
Executive Council, providing fur ihe
uui versa and s multaneous adoption
of the cental svstem cf weights and
measures on the 1st of Auirust ne.t.
Pass Him A hound. The success
of the democracy has been too much
for the prudence of some members of
the Jones family. There is a fellow
named Tom Hook, living in Marion
county, who so far forgot himself as
to give vent to his " pheelinka" in
this wise :
" I believe that the assassination
of Lincoln was a justifiable act, and
I would be proud to vote for Wi kes
Boothe, or Jeff. Davis for President
of the United States.''
This same man was once in the
Union army, but says it is the only
act of his life that he is ashamed of,
and that he never shot at a southern
man, and would not have done so if
he had been called into action. Of
course he votes the Democratic tick
et ; such men always do.
The. Republican party neglected
to hang the leaders in tho rebellion,
and now sulFl-r for it themselves
They refused to pass a registry law
in Oregon ; thus allowing treason to
get the State from ns at the late elec
tion There is nothing to lose by
doing right. And, had the party
not failed in such respects, Beriah
Brown the Oregon Herald and De
mocracy, would have been tosday
unknown.
The Orcgonian " takes pleasure"
in referring the Lafayette Courier as
"just tho thing to suit" an Illinois
man who is seeking information re
specting the healthfulness of Oregon,
and as calculated to give a descrip
tion of this region. We Know of
nothing more calculated to disgust an
immigrant with respect to those
things, than to present him with a
copy of the Courier. Sometimes a
good citizen cannot spell April with
out an c.
The Corvallis Gazette, Jackson
ville Sentinel, Eugene Guard and
Journal, Salem Record, Oregonian,
Herald, and Bulletin, all speak in
praise of the exhibitions of the Mc
Ginley Family. It is seldom that a
Troup of performers come so well
recommended. The Gazette says;
" This company consists of Mr. Mc
Giuley, two daughters and a son, as-
siMca oy Johnny Graham and Mr.
Bell, violinist. Their performances
are entirely free from vulgarisms
Johnny Graham and Mr. McGinley
are excellent delineators of negro
character, while Miss Sarah, by her
songs, and Master Bobby, by his
dancing, never fail to bring down the
house."
The work upon the Central
Railroad is progressing in a very sat
isfactory manner says the Record of
last Saturday. Grubbing and grad
ing have been completed to a point
some two miles above Milwaukie, all
of which is ready for the laying of
ties and rails, including a piece of
heavy trestle work near Milwaukie,
COO feet in length. About 150 men
are kept constantly at work. A
first class saw-mill is being construct
ed cn the route, about two miles
from Portland, on the land of Mr.
Tibbetts. Logs to make half a
million feet of lumber are already
cut nearby it. In the same vicinity,
the contractors have erected a car
shop, 140 feet long by 3G wide; also
a machine shop 30 by GO, in which
there are already planers, saws, etc.,
for all kinds of wood work. The
machine &hop for the manufacture ot
iron work is not yet built, but
the Compauy has, probably, a much
better machine shop coming than any
at present in Oregon. The in
terest felt by the people of this valley
in the enterprise is quite satisfactory
to the Company. Now that the ex
citement of the election is over, the
matter will be thoroughly presented
to all the counties on the line of the
road. Friday morning Mr. Burrage,
civil engineer, with a surveying party,
commenced the location of the road
from Salem, up Mill creek, towards
Jefferson. The intention is to estab
lish surveys ail the way to Eugene
as soon as possible, and complete the
grading as fast as possible.
The Roscburg Ensign says:
The internal wealth of our State is
fast developing itself into a degree of
magnitude that will in but a short
time, compare favorably with any
State in the Union. Not only are
almost all kinds of manufacturing es
tablishments in successful operation
in our vallies, but the mountains too,
are turning in their share of the in
creased productions, in the rich ore
and placer nuggets. Bohemia is
opening out with good prospects of
as rich a yield as even its n.ost san
guine claim-holders had anticipated;
there is already, and will continue to
be a great rush for that locality; and
nr dvubt many a " poor laborer"
! will grow licit from its auriferous
j production. There is now being
shipped from this place, for that
j camp a largo Mitk of goods; Mr. C.
i W. Fitch will soon have open a
conveyancer and recordvrs office, in
j which he will be prepared to transact
all business which the miners of the
district may stand in need of having
done; their laws and regulations will
j be enacted as soon as a sufficient
! number of officers can be present;
and lhe work generally is being com
menced in real earnest and we enter
tain no doubts about the woiking of
these mines, proving a great acces
sion to the interests of our vallies in
creating and maintaing a business
which has hitherto been carried on in
a district almost exclusively out of
our reach and consequently benefit
ing us but little.
The General Agent of the North
Western Insurance Company of
a ar j
Milwaukie. Wisconsin Mr. M. G.
Elmore, and Mr. Oscar Kilbourn,
Special Agent, gentlemen well known
to many of our business men, are o i
a visit to this city says the Unionist,
for the purpose of introducing the
company they represent. We have
been shown a list of parties insured in
this company, in Portland, to all of
whom they refer, and among which,
are the best business men in that city.
With such references and upon the
terms they propose to do business, we
bespeak for them a corresponding de
gree of success here.
Mr. Shanahan has just returned
to Portland bringing with him an ex
tensive assortment of everything per
taining to his line, including a large
and beautiful assortment of carved
brackets, albums, engravings, pic
turcs, sheet mv.sic, picture frames
and moulding?, etc., etc.; he has now
another c f those beautiful stercoseop
tic views of Oregon forty scenes in
all representing the finest views of

two may be profitably epent in ex
amining these different articles of

serves success for his correct taste and
perseverance. See advertisement.
Messrs. Thomas Russell, and
William Kalow, of Sibley county,
Minnesota, have spent the last fort
night in Benton and Lir.n counties,
looking out a location for themselves
and quite a number of other families.
We need a few hundred such enter
prising, energetic men, to till the now

by a paragraph in the Gazette.
The Commissioners of Multna

An association to be known as

protection of creditors against the

The Ifcrald sensibly denounces
the emigration of 39 persons from
Oregon to the Argentine Republic,
and says: " It is scarcely possible to
imagine anything more absurd than
expeditions of this kind. After the
history of Adam's emigration to
Palestine, and of the emigration from
the Southern States to Brazil, it will
be safe to predict that in a year or
eighteen months at farthest, after
these people have landed in that
South American country, they will
be beseeching the United States Con
sul to send them back. There is no
use of fool hardiness or obstinacy
in anything of this kind. They had
much better, by a thousand-fold, re
turn to their former homes, and con
tinue to be good cit'zens of Oregon,
instead of dropping down in the scale
of humanity by taking up a residence
among a half civilized people in South
America."
