Maine promises to give Grant and Colfax 20,000 majority or more. The Democratic papers object to General Grant because he used to chop wood for bis living. In fact they don't like wood choppers, any how. They have not yet forgotten that the Illinois rail-splitter split up the Democratic party in 1860 so efTectually that they have never yet been able to pick up all the chips. New York has had Presidential candidates at five of thg elections during the past GO years, and in only j, one instance has the candidate been elected Mr. Van Buren, in 183G. De Witt Clinton had 80 electoral votes in 1813, Ilufus King 34 in 1817, Tan Buren GO in 1841, and none in (! 849. The printers of Chicago have organized a Colfax Club, with affili ated societies in every town in the country in which half a dozen printers can be found. Stand by your crafts jnan, says the Sacramento Record, he is the type of a patriot, and justi j&s our support. Stick to him, and when presiding over the Senate he w ill so rule as to chase our enemies from the land. We have a good imjiression of his devotion to coun try, no man having given a clearer proof of faithfulness. With Grant, he wii? lead the great column of the Union boys to victory, aud press tho tncmyCfrom power. The adoption of the repudiation platform by the Democratic CoriTens tion, says the N. Y. Post, was im mediately followed by a fall in Gov ernment bonds of about one percent. Every holder of the National debt had his property reduced in value; lo$ing, in fact, two months' interest on hi money by this one rash vote of three hundred irresponsible poli ticians. The total immediate loss in value was nearly twenty million of dollars. If the mere threat of a dis united and powerless faction costs the country so much, how much would the triumph of such a party cost 1 Nor is there any compensa ting advantage to any person what ever ; the loss of National credit ben efits no one, but is pure loss to the bondholder, the Nation, and the world. Weohave never had the wevil in Oregon, but the following bit of advice may be of service to our read ers. We quote from the California Farmer : Fumigate Your Guaineiues. As there has been more or less wevil in various parts of the State at different times for the last two years, and as there has been considerable loss on this account, we would suggest to warehousemen and grain growers the 0 greafimportance of thorough cleans ing and fumigation of all their places of deposit for grain, now that they are empty or nearly so, and thus prepare them foRDa greater safety he re the new gram is deposited.
