It never occurred to us before that it was just the thing for Smelling Committees to twist their noses sky-ward and de clare that they smelled something. jyhen they didn't ; we were opaquely impervious to the consideration that Mr. Amis, and his military colleague would never have signed the Report had they not known how pure and true it was ; but our greatest error was in being ignorant of the fact that G ro ver and the ilercury people had them telvet examined the Report, and had pronounced It a work of unusual litera ry merit. Ignorance is no excuse for crime, and it was in our criminal want of Information on this subject that we became a prey to sledge-hammer taps f of tlie direst, force. And then how wickedly foolish of us to believe tliat the people, who pay the printer, should care anything about how the Report was made or what testimony was in or out. It is clear enough now : they were to sicken with the salute of an imaginary stench whenever the Smell ing Commission were observed to be wreathed with indigent wrinkles to lose themselves completely lit the petti fogs of the Commissions' Attorney.and only emerge in time to. rote the' 'Dem ocratic tickeU'June 3d,' 1872. We call upon O. J. Carr to rise to explain. Did you as a defeated candi date and sorehead, conspire with John F. Miller and others, Monday evening May 6th, to bring out Sara Allen and F. . Eldridge as fuion candidates for Representiitive3?' Did you promise di rectly or indirectly" to vote for F. E. Eldridge or any other. Democratic can didate for Representative, in consider ation of John F. Miller's, or any other Democrat's vote for Sam Allen, Billy Laughead, etc? Did you promise for yourself and for other Republicans that you and they would carry out the arrangements then and there made be tween yourself with certain other bolt ing and disorganizing Republicans, and John F. Miller and certain otlier Democrats . If so, who are tlie Re publicans whom yon thus pledged? Don't be bashlul, O. J. Carr. Come to the trout and let Republicans of Ma rion -county know whom you liave promised to bargain oil', in favor of the election of filler's G rover to the U. S. Senate. ' We have Just discovered what Undo Sum. .Allen has been having worms about he wasn't nominated for Rep resentative by the Republican Conven tion. He is now an independent can didate, and looking, of course, to the Democracy .for votes. His trouble about Billy Laughead was, of course, a mere subterfuge and an excuse behind which lie entrenched himself, tor the purpose of disorganizing the Republi can party. .Sow, that he is an inde pendent candidate against tlie regular Republican wmineesy without excuse or extenuation, the Republicans of Ma rlon eounty will know how to. value hitn. Let Republicans note the col nci dence, that his name appears at the sameatme with that of F. E. Eldridge, Democrat, and Jn the Mercury, Demo cratic newspaper. Does, any body doubt that this lias been done by collusion. aud with a nrctual understanding to trade? Republicans who are such up on principle will keep their iiands clean of tlie unholy alliance; Ttnnux so.viSATiojm.

The oatnmittee met, 'and after hearing the evidence in relation to charges of fraud in such nomination, decided that the charges were hot mistained, and by restfixrtioa called upon the Republicans ofJ4arkm county to support the ticket asftfemuted by the eounty eonventfon. riitf resolution was voted for by eleven iut 6t . the. sixteen committeemen. (W(0t the eleven Iiaving been original supporters of Mr. Laugijead. 'lTie re sailltbehig known, a few traitors to tlie Ltttt)Ucaa party, propjed at once to UM Call for a Peoples' convention to nominate a fusion ticket, to be com poe3 of bofting Republicans and Dem ocrats and to be supported by tlie eaiue elements. The niaof Mr. Xaughends friends, to their honor be It said,' re rosed to sign the call or to enter into any league by which tliey would be called upo .tit) vote for Deiuocratic SeprMilSrvii. " TImi maitpr. then Mrt)ed dowa to about this conclusion with thU clAspof Mr. Laugliead's frieiids : That they would vote straight for Jos. G. Wilson, the representative ticket, aud tiie couuty ticket except for Clerk; for clerk, tliey would vote as tliey pleased. But there were a few men, includ ing O. J. Carr, Sam Alien, and others whose names we shall probably men tion sitortlr in this connection, who never ceased to conspire with the Irnocracy for a fusion ticket. They made promises to John F. Miller, R. II. Dearborn, W. H. Watkinds, A. Bush and- other Democratic leaders, that they wonM bring to the support of such a ticket, 250 Republicans, though they knew such promises could not be fulfilled. Finally, they did agree with tlie Democracy to bring out Sam Allen and F. K. Eltlridge to gether, aud they pledged to this ticket the support of Win. M. Laughend and his friends. Whether this was done by and with tine advice and consent of Mr. Laughead, we cannot say. It is time now, for hint to come by the front and say whether it was or not. We do not believe that tliere are tuany j Republu.iis so devoted to Mr. Ijui- ! head, as to be willing to go Into such an arrangetnont for lii sakr.

Tliere was an excited contest at the Republican primaries of Multnomah county, between the friends of S. B. Parrish and J. M. Cay wood, for the nomination for Slierilf. Now that it is over, we doubt not the late oppo nents will unite heartily in support of the Republican ticket, to be nominated next Saturday, and tlius insure a rous ing majority in June. Tliere is no otlier course left for consistent Repub licans. The defeated candidates should accept the result and our information from that city is to tlie effect that tliey will clteerfiilly do a. Bring old Mult nomah to the front, boys .' The Jacksonville Times ; charges Gov. Grover with the petty meanness and spite of refusing to allow his organ, tlie Mercury, to hoist the name of Judge Prim among the names of candidates at the lieid of its editorial column. Tlie reason ot the omissieit Is that Gro ver is running, hr this campaign for Grover and not for the Democratic ticket. Grover and hi crowd are ready to tradeoff Burnett, also, where- ever aud whenever a point can be made for Grover, candidate for V. S. Senator. Tlie Democratic iarty having de clared its hostility to railroad enter prises in this State, at the dictation of Miller and Grover, the people of Polk, Yamhill, etc.. who are still in wautof a railroads are naturally not immoderately cordial toward Grover. Wlien he spoke at Dallas the other day. nearly the entire crowd. Democrats as well as Republicans, left the house be fore he was half through, and Grover "cut it short'' and left in disgust. There was a very large assemblage at Dallas yesterday to bear Wilson and Burnett speak. Mr. Wilson is still suffering from bis late attack of acute rheumatism, but be has no trouble to get away witta Burnett oa any issue which that gentleman has yet offered. He could do that if he were no more than half Jo Wilson. He is in excel lent spirits aud confident tbat he will better bis vote of two years ago, great ly lu Southern Oregon.

Tlie ustul legal advertising for estate for In stance, is for three to six week my an average of four weeks. Tlie no tices avenge, say two squares each. Some of them are longer and some slwrter as everybody understands ; but for the purpose of Illustrating the rob bery which tlie Litigant law legalizes, we will take the time, four weeks, and the number of squares, two. For publishing such a notice, the organ Is allowed $5 for tlie first insertion and $2 tor each of the three subsequent in sertions, making a total of $11. This is ati outrageous price and is more than any of the metropolitan papers charge, and considerably more than double what any ot the country litigant papers can get tor mercantile adver tising. For instance, the Mercury, the litigant organ for Marion count, will not pretend tliat it can get any such price for any business advertise ment. That paper certainly does not charge its business nitrons who are not compelled by law to abvertise in it, more than halt tliat sum. Our charge for a two square advertisement In tlie Weekxt Statesman, four inser tions, is $5 ; does the Mercury charge more titan tliat for a mercantile adver tisement ? And ye,t, under the Litigant law it-gets (11, and the' party adver tising has not the opticu to advertise in the Statesman where lie could get It done for $5. We doubt not, the Farmer would also do it for $5. ISo, a person Iiaving legal advertising to do. is robbed under Democratic legisla tion of $G, every time he has occasion to publish a two square advertisement for four issues of the litigant organ. The Illustration Is so simple and plain that even the dullest man can see tlie infamy and outrage there is in tlie Democratic Litigant law. Yc ' - - Rev. C. W. Shaw, of Albany, called upon last evening and informed us that arrangements had been made with the Oregon & California Railroad Co., for a grand Fourth of July Picnic Excur sion, trains to start from Eugene on schedule time on the Fourth, and to take up delegations at all the way sta tions to Portland. At Portland, steps have already been taken, to arrange tor a general celebration, oa the largest gcale ever attempted h that city. Tick ets will be issued, good for round trip, the return to be made within five days, at very low rates less than half the regular fetes. Cars will l)e supplied at ail tlie towns and stations to accom odate such as may wish to go in local delegations. ' Arrangements have also been made for an extension of the excursion, fbf each as may de sire to go, to either Astoria or the Dalles., The entire double' excutslou can be made within the five days cov ered by the tickets.'.''

Tlie traitors to the Republican party were In council with the lemocracy la- night and tlie result of their In trigue appears in the form ot an "In dependent ticket, " which means simply a Democratic ticket, to be manipula ted in favor ot L. F. Grover for the U. S. Senate. While this ticket cou- tains the names of some Republicans, venal enough to agree to and accept the political infamy they are earning, we are satisfied that It also contains the names of others who will spurn it as an unclean thins;, contamina ting and disreputable. Such names have been used, of : course, without consultation or consent. and we shall look to see tlietn fitly re pudiate the insult tliat lias been offered them. The entire ticket will be found hi our advertising columns under the bead of Independent Candidates." Let Republican who would not sec die Legislature bartered off to L. F. Grover, now show the mettle tbey are made of. Let them come to the res cue of the Regular Republican ticket against this unholy and disgraceful al liance into which a few unprincipled Republican traitors would lead them. We have been told tliat, in attacking O. J. Carr aud the little coterie of Cay uses who are "bucking" around the county in favor of a piebald Republi- can-Grover Hckef we are liable to make somebody mad. vv e nope everybody will understand Jhat We are not attacking anybody except tlrose men who liave gone into it fusion and trade with Democrats.

As for tliose men wlx) have entered into a cor rupt league with Democrats, they are in the same boat with the natural ene mies at tlie Republican party, and uiust erpoCv the same treatment given to enemies.'

That is what the lite National Colored Convention at New Orleaiis said. It Is as true as that two and two make four ; and tlie truth could not have been better expressed.
