The. Next Presidential Candidate.
, ,
e notice some of onr exchanges arc j
discussing the probable chances ot tins
or that man for the nomination at the i
hands of the Democracy in 1S72. This'
may be proper enough, but our idea of ,
the matter is, that papers have but little
to do with if, and that it should be their
aim to present the views held by all prom
inent men of the party, and leave the
selection to tne wisdom of the delegates
yvho are to place in nomination the can-'
didate3 for our support. We feel assured
that the next National Convention wiH
profit by tha experience of the past, and
select men as standard bearers of the De
mocracy in whom the people have confi
dence. The compromise dodge of giving
one section the platform and another the
man entirely adverse to the principles
enunciated in the platform, will not be
agijda resorted to. If the Convention
should so far forget its duty to the coun
try as to nominate a man not in complete
unison and harmony with the principles
of the party, another defeat awaits us.
But If the party representatives will be
true to the trust that is confided to them,
a glorious victory will be achieved. No
snub, men as Chase have any right to be
even mentioned in connection with our
standard bearers, and no matter what the
platform might be with such a nominee,
he would be defeated. The recent elec
tions have Iveri positive evidence that
our defeat two years hence will be our ,
own work. The people want men who
can rally the strength of the party in
every section of the Union, and not men
who are calculated to catch a Radical
vote in the New England States and lose
thousands in others. It has been the rn-ac-tice
for the past two Presidential elec
tions to nominate candidates to pleasu
Radicals, and thus discourage and drive
from the support of the party the active
men in our ranks. It is a matter of humil
iation to every Democrat in Oregon to
remember lha.t they were forced to sup
port a man in lSu'4, who was placed in1
nomination contrary to the wishes of
nine-tenths of the party throughout the
Union, on a platform of principles, and
no sooner had the nomination been made
sind the platform adopted, than this indi
vidual repudiated the doctrines set forth
by the Convention. In 1SGS the party
was again obliged to support two men
who had not the first element of popularity
among the masses. They were not Dem
ocrats at heart, and one was the represen
tative of the money element of the coun
try, while the other was a live-long Abo
litionist. With such men as our standard
bearers we can never be successful. It
it is necessary to place Democrats in the
field for Democrats to support, and when
we can get a united support from our
own party, and show that we are true to
ourselves and principles, then we shall
gain strength from the opposition, and a
glorious victory will be gained. Had we
gained the elections for the past ix years,
we should have had an empty and worth
less triumph. The men nor their views
were in harmony with the people, and
they did not receive the cheerful support
of the Democracy much less could they
expect any strength from the opposition.
We want representative men placed on
our National ticket in 1S72. whether they
be from East or West, men who have
been true to their party and principles,
men who can rally every vote of the
party, and with such, our victory will be
easy and when gained, will be worth
having. We want true and honest men
selected to go the National Convention
untrammeled and uncontrolled by iac
ttons or cliques, and with men who hava
the sympathy and principles of the
masses at heart, we can be-successful.
Witlmio others can or should success at
tend us. Men who have been in common
fellowship .with the Radical party until
its corruption has insured its destruction,
who have forsaken the rotten kuU for the
O purpose of position from their former
enemies, can never receive the hearty
support of the Democracy. Give us
Democrats to support in the .future and
we can go into lbi campaign with every
assurance of success. True and good
men are in the party to select from, and
. we hope. tb.t the choice may be a states
man of which the Democracy may feel
proud. No man's man who has not been
all tbe time in-fellowship with the party
sh'ould even be mentioned favorably bv
the Democratic press. One Republican
is as good as another, and if the two
tickets ate composed of Abolitionists, it
will make but little difference which will
be successful.
Coxc'edei. The New York Herald
which is generally posted in such -matters,
Ct oncedes that the Democracy will
elect the next President. It figures from
Ohe late, elections, and giving the Rad-
icals Pennsylvania which will surely be
carried by the Democrats, it still gives
the Democracy a majority of the Electo-
ral votes.

The Result.
Frcra lale eastern 'exchanges' we learn
that Democratic victory at the late elec
tions was most complete and much better
than was reported by the loyal telegraph.
We have carefully examined our ex-,
changes,' and from thera wt make the foK
lowing as the complexion of the next
House of Representatives, while we gain
not less than five Senators, and probably
seven. ; -.

There are yet to be elected 22 members,
in the States of New Hampshire, 3 ; Con
necticut, 4 ; Georgia, 7 ; Florida. 1 ;
Texas, 4 5 California, 3. Of these the Rad
icals will probably gel eight votes making
their strength in the next Congress 130
and the Democrats 112, giving them ' a
majoriy of IS. In these figures there is
included cn the Radical tfde all the
l Independent" candidates or Revenue
Reformers, who ntuifber about 12 or 15,
giving a majority, if these act with the
Democracy in electing the next Speaker,
in opposition to the Administration.
It is pretty evident that the next Con
gress will stand opposed to the President
and his policy.
The Court House.
We have not quite finished this little
job of the County Commissioners, and it
will not be until we convince even that
august body that they have perpetrated
an outrage on the people of the county
by their action. We have a little piece
of information here which is furnished by
Dr. Thessir.g, which the card of " explana
tion"' from the Commissioners failed to
mention. I It is to the point, aud gives
.another chain of evidence against them.
If the Commissioners were aware, (and
it is insinuated by parties that they were
rot, the County Clerk, Mr. J. M. Friser.
probably never presented the letter men
tion to the board), they are more guilty
of squandering the county's money than
we at first charged, or had any idea. We
were told in the commencement of this
controversy that we had misrepresented
the facts in the case, and we find that we
were very unfortunately deceived in the
matter, as the fuel. go to make up a more
complete case than we had anticipated
We were aware that the county could
have procured a Court House for $100
per annum, but did not know that they
could have had it at their oica price. The
facts we have already presented to our
readers, show that the clique" are
squandering $200 per annum on the
rent, and if a fair and just competition
had been opened, we believe the county
could have procured a Court House for
even less than that sum. The following
card will convince every one of this fact.
It is very easy for men to deny facts, but
to bring the evidence is another matter.
We have made the charge of corruption
in this mat'er, and so far, notwithstanding
the able denial of the facts by the C0111
misioners, we have proved our former
charges, and now only add the following
to show how much more guilty they are
than wo had ever charged them with,
and as the card is from a good Repub
lican, it may be regarded as good evi
dence against the Court. Here is the
card :
Oukcox City. Nov. 20, 1870.
Mr. Enixon S11: .---I wrote to J. M.
Eraser, County C!etk, before they rented
'.he present building, and gave him a pro
position to rent my building for a Court
room, but not getting any reply, I then
wrote to him, J. M. Eraser, again, staling
that I did not wish to be made a tool ot,
but did not want them to leave the build
ing, and lor them to take it at their cicn
price. Yours truly.

Disoi:gam.;-.ii. The Eastern Radical
papers, since the election, show positive
signs of the disorganization of the Rad
ical party. There is no limit of their
abuse of each pther. and from what the
indications at present are, we can see no
way for that party to hang together for
the next two years. Corruption has done
its work and the creature which procured
its existence through fnr.id, deception
and bloodshed, has finally become, a
stench in the nostrils of every honest man.
A most ignoble death awaits it in 1S72.
Having -had no principles in its com
mencement but phindt-r, the very first
defeat disorganizes and disbands the hun
gry Um-ves who have only been adhering
to the party lor ?ain. 0

implies
tcu ia the
"Prevailing Disease."
""We Lear frerfivent comf hunts against
the citizens of Salem in ; connection with
the small-pox. It appears that the dis
ease had been in that place for a number
of months, and a steady -effort was main
tained by the people and physicians e-f-that
place to cover up the actual existence
of the disease', and not until after - it was 1
pronounced such - by physicians from
other parts of the State, was the precan
lun taken which ought to have. been, and
by which a number of deaths and much
sickness might have been ' averted. "The
fact of the matter is, that the people
throughout the 'State justly feel indignant
at' the manner which this matter was
covered up, and now, by this . very screcy,
and deception, the dreadful malady has
become scattered through the entire
State. In all parts of the State we l.er
of parties having been .taken down with
the disease1 who had been at Salem. Had
the fact been, known iu time, precaution
might have been taken,, and the disease
prevented from spreading through the
various-par ts'cf the State. It is charged
by many that this matter was kept private
for the purpose of pecuniary gain to the
people of Salem. If.it had been known
(hat such a disease, existed in that place,
many persons ..would not have visited
either the Stati: Fair or been about the
Legislature, -and that body might h ive
taken the precaution and ''adjourned un
til such a time as it would have been pru
dent to come together. Whether these
charges or -just or not, wt! are not pre
pared to say. It looks, however, as
though there is some ground for them.'
We do not believe that any person would
so far forget his duty to his fellow-man as
to wilfully expose him to this dreadful
disease foF the consideration of money,
and are not inclined to censure the peo
ple of Salem, believing that they were
innocently deceived in the matter by the
physicians of that place, who ought to have
known better. Put the most redlculons
part of the matter is, the farther denial of
the existence of the malady in that place.
The Statesman continues to . term it the
'unknown disease.'' Whether the peo
ple of Salem know by this time what the
disease is or not, we cannot say, biit the
innocent fculferers, for the lack of knowl
edge jof the physicians of that .place, are
satisfied wliat their aillictions are and j
have been, and that it is, nothing, more
or less than the small-pox. While we are
not desirous to censure the people o!
Salem, we cannot help synipaiizing with
those who have been taken down with
disease from which they might huv-e been
spared had the truth been told in the
start. "Further deception in this matter
becomes criminal, and we hope the truth
may be told in all cast's hereafter, and
let the precaution be taken to check the
disease and not to smother its existence.!
Letter from Governor Haight.
We publish the following pointed and
forcible letter of Governor Haight, of
California, to Governor (J rover, upon his
late veto of the Portland subsidy bill :

Stu : Yours ot the olst tilt, came to hand
a few- days since, 'with the punted slip
containing your Veto message, for which
please accept my thanks. I was luuch
gratified" to see your vindication of Con
stitutional limitation, and of s .u.I princi
ples of government.
In accordance with yor.r request I en
close herewith a message of my own. and
also two letters ' on the same subject.
They indicate briefly the views which
seem to mo correct, as to the scope and
natt.ro of the taxing power, and as-to the
validity of Midi measures as the one from
which you hold your assent.
The provisions iu the Oregon Connti
tution. prohibiting in terms bonds ot
credit and -donations of bonds by coun
ties or ci ies to corporations, does not
exist iu the Constitution of this State.
The objection here, as you will notice,
rrsts upon the, broad ground that money
only cau be raised by taxation for
pubic purposes, and that donations to
private railway corporations, are not such
a purpose.
The great struggle, at present seems try
be. to determine whether our general and
State governments shall be administered
in the interest and for the benefit of a
priviledged few. or whether they sh .11 be
administered, as they were designed to be.
for the benefit of the whole people,
It is strange, that any one. and still
s'ranger that any Democrat, should advo
cate sjsiems which, like protective tariils
and railway subsidies, interfere with na
tional liberty, deny to citizens the unre
stricted right to dispose of the fruits of
their own industry , ami levy contributions
upon the tax paving and laboring com-
munifvfor the aggrandizement ot inwi-
1 . . , . Tl... m'lr... r.f. it,,.
Democratic party certainly is to rebuke
and defeat this policy, and it seems to me
our success has been much retarded by
the tergiversation ot those in our ranks,
who are recreant to the doctrines and tra
ditions of the party, and fail to compre
hend its spirit.
I 'sincerely trust that in our National
and State platforms this issue may be
presented in its simplest and most, iuteiii
gable form, stripped of side is -nes and
dead issues.
The right of the individual citizen to
dispose of the proceeds cf his labor with
the Joast possible interference by govern
ment, subject only to taxation for legiti
mate public expenditures 5 to buy
wherever he can buy most favorably, and
to regulate his subscriptions and dona
tions to coi p orations according to Ids
own judgment, of what interests require,
is the essence of our "political creed.
JNo compromise
m reference to it is
possible. .
This assertion of individual liberty, by
a natural and logical sequence, involves
the advocacy of a local self-government,
and opposition to centra'ked irrespuiioi-
Kl, nfiu'f'!' - - '
Your stand against this species of legal -

so he replanted it. when it braught, forth
seventeen fold, something unufual in the
