Surveyor-General Arnold has given the democracy of the etate of Oregon to understand that he is surveyor-general ; that he purposes running the office to nit himself ; that he will keep his- re publican clerk as long aa he pleases, which he says will be daring bis own incumbency of the office; and that, to put it briefly, the democracy of Oregon could go to the d 1 for all he cared. Mir. Arnold boldly asserts that when the administration appointed' Mr. John C. Arnold, the democracy of Oregon was sufficiently recognized. He further states that the work of the office is of a "technical and scientific character," which Mr. John C Arnold evidently thinks is reason enough' why a democrat should not be entrusted with it. ; We ' heartily agree with Surveyor General Arnold, and admire the manner in which his elibre cuts of Saxon speech alice the Gordian knot; but, as we stated once before, General Arnold stops short of the legitimate and logical con clusions of the premises that he sets np. Arnold should set forth this same state of facts to his superior in office at Wash ington. He should state frankly and fully that the work of the office was of a "technical and scientific character;" that it was lust technical enough for a republican and too scientific for a demo crat; and he should append this state , ment, to emphasize it, to his resigna tion. If the work in the office is too technical for a democrat, and Surveyor General Arnold asserts it is, he should tarn it over at once to a republican There may be, though, some salvation for Mr. Arnold. It was asserted at- the time the administration ran its fine- toothed comb through the Oregon de mocracy's hair in search of talent, that the murks upon Mr. Arnold's back (po litical marks) were not such as to con vey the idea that be belonged to the old breed. In fact, the straight-out tin terrified ticklers of the democratic scalp asserted that certain dark spots indi cated a leaning towards republicanism that was superinduced by the fact that he bad lately left that fold, and that his yearnings after the flesh pots of th old party were only permanently over come by the generous supply of leeks and onions, manna and quail, and other toothsome morsels found in the pickings of the office of surveyor-general of the great state of Oregon ; morsels which he felt would be more delectable and de- glutitory when the culinary department which possessed both "technical and scientific characteristics" was presided over by a republican chef. Of coarse it is none of our pie. It is a matter for the unterrified, the untechni cal and the unscientific to settle among themselves. It is gratifying, however to note the charming franknesa with which the local talent selected by toe administration for the most obese offices in the state, with one accord come to the front and admit that they know enough to draw their salaries, but that the dem ocratic ranks do not contain .a man brainy enough to do the work. It is perhaps true, though we really always supposed the old gag about democrats not being able to read, while having perhaps a legitimate foundation in truth, was but a playful and humorous exaggeration. We are astonished, and withal pleased, that the demonstration is made - that the gag - was true. . It makes as think better of our fellowmen, when those fellowmen are democrats, because it serves to excuse them for many acts of foolishness. We can now understand why they wanted free trade, and Wilson, and Gresham, and Queen Lil, and whole lots of that kind of trash that they had no use for. But this is a digression. We appreci ate the position Mr. Arnold is placed in, and admire his bold stand in the inter ests of the people. We haye not the pleasure of the eurveyor-general's ac quaintance, but we know he is the man for the place, and so does he. He is monarch of all he surveys, and he in tends to run his man Friday, to suit himself. Against his office door the stormy waves of a wild and raging de mocracy may beat, but they beat in vain. The storms may. whistle round his fortress, but what cares be? His salary is assured, and he has a princi ple, in fact all , the principles he has behind him. Judge Moore at Spokane recently de cided that all persons in Washington who had been divorced and had married again within six months; were illegally married, and consequently, not , married at all. As there are some forty cases of this kind, the decision has caused quite a stir. The case will be taken to the supreme court, bat in the meanwhile parties whom the decision affects do not know whether to get married again, or not ; and if they do not, they bardly know just what position they are occu pying. " ' -: Governor' McKin ley says that if the republican party comes out for free sil ver he will have nothing to do with the nomination. It is quite probable that Governor McKinley will have nothing to do with the nomination, no matter what the republican party may see fit to do concerning silver. .. There are much larger fish In the republican pond than W. McKinley of Ohio, Tom Reed of Maine for one, and Allison of Iowa for half a dozen. Judge Stephens of Portland has broken the record by actually sending Rev. J, C. Read, who was acquitted of the charge of attempting to rob a bank, on the ground that , he was insane, to the asylum. Evidently the moral wave struck the feet of the goddess of Justice, for the thing is entirely out of the usual order. -- ' - - ? - ,; Kucsld Is Displeased. It was the general understanding that the members of the state board who vis ited the site for the Eestern Oregon asy lum last Saturday, were highly pleased with the selection made by the former board. But a Salem dispatch to the Sun contains a different report, and this lat ter report will no doubt call for a more complete ' explanation from the secre tary of state. . The dispatch says : ,. "Sec cretary of State Kincaid is greatly dis pleased with the site of the Eastern Ore gon branch asylum. He states, that the location is bad, the land low and not adapted to the raising of such articles necessary for an asylum, and theclimate is anything but favorable for the benefit of the insanes' health. The other mem bers have not returned to Salem, and their opinfon on the, subject has not been ascertained." The Major I'd make him apologize or fight. The Judge That's the disa greeable part of it.
