co'Jtrcl of this paper. It has been cus
tomary on assnrntn
the control of a miner
'
to give a long salutatory, promising what,
the editor proposes doing and what he
will noi, do. We will deviate lrom this
practice, and simply say that the paper
lu.s been under our control ior.the past,
mx weeks, attd we propose to keep it in
the same line as long as it remains in our
charge. Xur past record is familiar to
most of the readers of this paper. ad we
deem it unnecessary to make any extend
ed remarks on this occasion, prefeiring to
be judged by our acts rather than words,
li isQio new business to u having been
engaged in it for over ten years in
this Stale. We wis)) to say one word to
the citizens of this (own and county. A
newspaper in a county the size of Clacka
mas is an imperative necessity, and should
be supported byvery one who has an iu
teiSt in the future grow-ih of the couutv
at heart. We shall1
ma,ce the paper a
county newspaper, and while wed
expert to please thostwho are politically
opposed fo us. we will give them enough
county and other news ami misct iianeous
reading matter to pay t!,euiior their sub
scription. The larger the cii eolation ot a
paper, the more eif.-ctual wiil be i s iniiu
ence. The subscription I. si of ihe Entk.u
1 KTsk is at pre.-ent as large as aii count v
paper in the Stale. et we feel sail-tied
that IfK-re are many in this county who do
notrtaiize the importance ol sustaining
their county organ. We hope Unit every
Democrat in the conn y will not only iaNe
it as ti pleasure to support his party organ,
but a duty, and we desire all liberal and
thinking men wfto feel an inien -m in the
progress ol the county, of the opposing
party, to give us their stippnit. i'uning
aside politics, they are as much interested
in a live paper being published here as
the Democracy. We promise to make the
paper interesting to till classes, and hope
to receive the heretofore liberal support
of the paper, with additional increase.

i he badical press has much to say about
frauds perpetrated aijthe lat- election.
It is tCtiO'orioiis facT that there never was
a party iiQhis State or iinv other that has
been guilty- of as much rascality, illegal
, voting, purchasing, importing, exporting.
aud intimidation, as the Radical party of
0 Oregtvn were during the last campaign.
They charge on Ihe Democracy fotil play
in certain counties. The truth of Ihe mat
ter is this: In Yamhill, Per. ton. Marion.
Douglas, Clackamas and Washington coun
ties, the Radicals had evrrvihinn- their
own way, these counties being in then
hands. In Mubnomah their roughs took
possession of the9oi!s and prevented hun
dreds oi Democrats from voting. In Yam
iiill they voted more illegal votes than
their majority is. In Denton thev did ihe
tame tiling. In tins county the
same
thim
In Marion Miey polled at least 10a
votes illegally.
TI
to Democracy dealt
fairly ia everv county
thev had control
of. It is a notorious fact that when the
illegal votes are thrown out in thts and
Yamhill (whith will be done)

Com'n out on the Chinese Question.
The Oregonian is becoming more bold
in i:s advocacy of the Chinese rights since
the election. In its issue of the 13:h it
s:iys : "
In the Pacific States and Territories it
has been the fashion to tax and otherwise
oppress one c!a.-8 of toreiu f-i the Chi
nw, in an uik on-u utiouul manner, a ad
to deny them all mean o redress tor
wronzs lX might be heaped on them
Congress has provided a remedy by enact
iuji a law which gives Chinese in this
country civil riMs. that is. such right.
as will enubie them to make and enforce
Contracts, etc., and jrive them lull security
in peton and property. The I.)emouratic
paper alit ded to pe;ik?. of this as if it
were an outrage ajjjainst the superior
nce."' It evidently lens that there are
not civil rights" enough to go round."'
and that white people ought to have ell
there ;uo. It. further says : IJy (his law
the Chinaman is e.xprtssly placed on an
eqna'.in will! every o?he: foreigner com
iiig to tins country. :tnd iiieSia'.e.s are pro
fobbed tiom mikii'g any distinction
against h'm in the matter of taxes, licenses
and immigration."' Now in point ! fact
the sut"S la-ver had any constitutional
j power to in ike
my distinction against
' 1;'ia-
they have sometimes usurped
that power: and the object tif this law l
to enable the Cliinim.iti to defend himselt
against thos? uti ..otistisutioital and op
pressive laws, which some, of the State.
and Territories have enacted. Hut. sas
ttiis oracle, A State can no-7 pass no law
i npo-isig any special burdens or exactions
lip-m the Camaui an'? Of course a State
cannot. It never could consistently wt h
the Consti anion of the United States. lint
i:i vioia'inn of the Constitution (his thing
fi is sometimes been done. The present
law ot Congress is intended to prevent a
repetition of it. We quote aaiii : A
Sta'e can now hamper him (the Chinaman)
with no restrictions that do not applv
equally to the white foreigner, nor can it
- ! oo-truct his immigration
bv iinv other or
i greater tmpeittments tnan those winch lie
iii the way ot the unnaturalized German
or Englishman or Irishman." - .Right again;
I but th
announce no new rule on
this subject. Xo S'ate ever had the right
or the constitutional power 1o hamper"
the Chinaman '-with any restrictions which
do not apply equally' to the while for
eigner.'7 Xo State ever had the right, to
throw any impediment"' jn tJr way of

coming within its borders. The Courts
!...
have n.liy settled these questions.
Xever-
i heless some of the Slates have enacted
laws to discriminate against the ChlueH'.
and the ubteet of his counter law of Con
gress is to prevent a repetition of these
unconsihuior.al acts. without obliging
the Chinaman to carry every c ise up to
the Supreme Court ot the United States,
in order to enforce his t ights against un
constitutional State legislation.
There is a great deal of loose writing in
the Democra'.ic pre?s on thi- subject.
i hey assume that a Stale has heretofore
had fi riuht to bar out Chinese or impose
special burdens on Iheni. when such is bv
no means the fact. The States, since the
adoption of the ('onsti'uioti. have had no
i tght or power of the kind.
The Omjr.uUm comes to the rescue of
i: Celestial friends, knowing that the De-
..........r .i-i..... . ii 1 ...
ii.oc..;cy 01 un, .-ore m,i maKe an eiiort
to protect the white men from this influx
of the heathen rat-eaters into our State.
If there is no wav bv which the white men
j Can be protected in their rights through
- --
legal interference, we are in favor of tak
ing the only alternative. Tin.' heathens
can not and sha;l t ot enjoy the. "equal"
rights of other foreign born citizens, and
if the Radical party af mpls to force this
upon them they will resist it with all the
power they po.' -ess. The American white
men are optui-ed to making this a mop
grid Government, and the part- in power
may as weil understand this matter now.
We bciieve with Hon. Frank Pixley. on
. I.: . , : .. : -1 . ,
'"I; qu'-s inn, u mere is no oilier wav.
take the torch and eesfrov i!ie ships t'mt
bring the heathens to our State."' They
are an injury to the white race, and if we
wi-h the Caucasian race to predominate
in this land, we must lake ell'eetive mea
sures to protect them. But the above ar
ticle i.s remarkably co jl to come so s :n
after the election. The Or,tntirir would
not havj dare I to thus openly advocate
the rights of the Chinese before the elec
tion, knowing that i's only show fcr suc
cess was by deception, and hem-e strenu
ously endeavored to cover up its designs.
There is one thin: that fhis advocate o!
Chinai-m may understand, and that is
j that the people of Oregon will find a wav
to protect the white men. and that un
friendly legislation against the heaihetis
will be enacted, and enforced. When
Congress rebels agun-t, the righ's of a
sovereign State, that State his the right
to set at defiance the powers that be. We

In the campaign just closed, the Demo

Radicals, and they claimed that the debt
had been reduced over SlUO.OOO.OtX) since
fj rant's inauguaration. The above state
ment on the 1st of May shows that the
debt at that time was larger than when
(Irani took possession of the affairs of the
I nation, and instead of iis decreasing, it is
1 . ,
larger than it was on trie 1st ot April and
steadily on the increase. The people will
find a way to reduce it ere long if the
Radical Congress does not.
DrscHAnuixu. Ben. Iloliaday has dis

were subservient enough to vote his ticket,

To Rkti hx. It is stated that the Radi
cal candidate for Stafe Printer, who made
a short visit to this State to see himself
defeated will soon return to Washington
to take his place on the j o'ice. In his
lettei to the Radicals from Washington,
he said that 'he Mongrel ticket t amid be
elected, and that the people of Oregon
would not endorse the Democracy. Won
der what he thinks now. He 1ms prob
ably changed his mind. The verdict is
certainly against his presumptions, and
shows that even such a sage as Ihe edi
tor" of the t(t!e Journal may be mistaken
in his estimate. K ght or four years ago
he might have expected to be successful,
but the people have. their ryes open now.
and Radicalism is at a discount, never to
rate at par again in Oregon. " Fare ye
well. Pro. Watkins."
Stoptko. -The Salem Press has been
discontinued. It was started for ihe cam
paign, and fuliy sustained itself in all its
promise's given at. the otrsjt. It dealt
heavy and fearless blows to (he Radicals.
Wehave.no knowledge who was its edi
tor, but. us a campaign writer, he is a sue
cess, and knowing the kind of material he
had o contend against, he compelled his
.'oes fo retreat on every side. Mr. W. II.
Watkinds was the business manager, and
t him much credit is due for the success
f the paper during the campaign, while
tie received much of ihe abuse from the
Radical papers. Pill is able to stand it
ts it was not tlte first time that tne Radical
hounds were 0:1 his track.
We are gratified to ascertain that Judge
Poise is positively re-elected. The con
test in his district was very close. IIi.
majority i- small, but sure. The colored
vote saved him. We hope that Judge
i.oise will evince less disposition to op
pose negro suffrage hereafter. Ore'joninn.
Thus it will be seen that a Supreme
Judge of Oregon holds his position by
v irtue of the negro vote in his district.
White voters of Oregon, what do you
think of this? The wishes of over 3.000
white voters are ovei ruled by fifteen or
twenty negroes in j-our State. Remember

Jud-je Shattuck's Letter.
Last week we published a letter from
Judge Shut tuck, in which he takes the
ground that (he fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments are " settled facts.' Nothing
can be a settled fact' un'ess it is based
on justice and right, and these amend
ments (so-called) never having been
legally adopted, cannot become ' settled
facts' before a free and independent peo
ple. If we were to accept every venal
and outrageous law passed by the Radical
scoundrels in power as settled facts."'
v. hat would be the need of an opposition
to them? They might declare that this
Government should be administered by a
perpetual power, and they be the power,
and the peaple should be silent, because
it is an "established fact." It is the duty
of every lover of. our former free institu
tions to oppose these would-be established
facts, and determinated resist them at all
hazards. The Radical thieves who ant
stealing our liberties would have an easy
conquest were the people all like the
Judge, ready and willing to "accept"7 their
infamous acts as settled facts. We do not
propose anything of the kind. We shall
continue to war on them, and force a re
peal by peaceable means, if possible, but
we shall never - accept" them as ' estab
lished facts.' We are gratified, however,
that the Judge agrees with Ihe Democracy
on the internal improvement and finance
questions, and. as the difference between
the Radicals and fi;e Democracy is so
great 01. these points, he will hereafter be
forced to act with the only national and
equitab'e party in the country the De
mocracy and we hope that he will put
on ihe whole armor, and not only oppose
the party in power on its ruinous financial
policy, but also in all its infamous and
illegal acts.
Absurd Pig-uring-.
The Radical papers just now are doing
any amount of absurd and
l'idit UlotiS '
figuring about the election, and what a
"glorious victory"' they have won. Pe
fore the election it was their boast that
they had only 1G5 majority (Seymour's
majority to overcome, and the 200 nigger
votes in Or-gon ias enough, but now lliev
fall back on Mr. Smith's majority and
cla'm great gain:, because the Democracy
will probably not get on Congressmen
more ihan 50:). and the majority on Gov
ernor will be 700. The only place the
Radicals have made any gains is the Pen.
Iloliaday railroad vote, which gave them
40.") in Multnomah county, and in 18(18 it
gave Mr. Smith near 250. Now anv man
of sense can see where the Radicals made
their gain-. It was in Multnomah county
that the Radicals gained, ami those were
money converts and Pen. Iloiladay's
slaves. The Radical editors are trying
hard to convince their readers that their
prospects are bright, and that success will
be theirs two years hence. Gentlemen, in
the language of a young Radical of this
place, before the election. " If yon. (ihe
Democracy) carry the State this time.'you
have us (the Radicals) for at least the next j
ten years." There is nothing more certain
than this fact. We carried the State this
tune against Federal. State. Congressional
ami railroad aid. and two years hence the
Congressional corruption fund. Pen. Iloi
laday's money and men. and Williams'
money will not be so plentiful, and con-
sequently we shall gain an easy victory.
Tiiis last election was won against great
odds, while the next will give us at least
a fair show. Will some of our Radical
mathematician-- tell us how much they
h ive gained in the State over Grant's vote?
That was the last election held in Oregon, i 'Oldest luhabitant' does not recollect any

in our gentle and affeciionate embrace.
