The Portland Journal, recently
Btarted In Portland, Is rapidly becom
ing a newspaper and a very attrac
tive one.
Welcome to the "Woodmen of the
World and their friends! They pos
sess one thing that always Insures
success, plenty of energy and a knowl
edge how to apply It.
Interests of the county have no rep
rescntation on tho board, ho should
be elected to succeed Sir. Gtlllland
whose term has expired.
With the usual whine of the Wll
laniette valley the Salem Statesman
utters a cry against the new tax law
In the Interest of the proverbial "poor
man" who pays taxes. It says th
new tax law may be a good thing as
a whole, but it Is pretty tough on
many a poor man." How can It be
The "poor "man" can take advantage
of every feature of the law. "Poor
men" who own property should pay
taxes on the Bame terms as others
who own property. In short, poor
men do not have to pay taxes, only
on such property as they may own
The new tax law Is an excellont mea'
sure. It Is an Incentive to thrift and
good methods. It is the next best
thing to local option In' taxation, al
lowing each county to assess the tax
as Its own people may elect. Home
rule in taxation, as in everything
else, makes people self-reliant,
strengthens them in being self-gov
ornlng and increases their capacity
for taking care of themsolves. Those
who depend upon government by the
Jew, are always whining qvor what
the government is expected to do for
them and never caring to acomplish
anything for themselves. Laws . that
foster the independent spirit are the
corner stones of American instltu
tlons.
LINCOLN'S ESTIMATE OF JEFFER
SON.
The citizens' ticket in Portland is
headed by Robert Inman. a stalwart
democrat, for mayor, and as ho is
a popular man and one of extraordi
nary ability and fitness for the office
he may be elected. In any event he
will make an interesting race against
Judge George H. Williams, the repub
lican candidate.
The democrats in Umatilla county
will make a strong effort to carry the
county for the entire ticket and, judg
ing from their earnestness and vigor,
their efforts are not going to be with
out results. They have a good tick
et, a platform that means something
and they do not propose to keep
their light hid under a half bi-sbel.
Such a thing might happen the
democrats may be successful at the
polls in Juno, elect .tho state ticket
and a majority of tho members of
tho legislature. If such a thing
should happen, C. E. S. Wood would
bo. the ,next United States senator
from Oregon, and that would be a
good thing for tho state and tho peo
ple. Mr. Wood is a lawyer of ability,
fearless in his advocacy of the rights
of the people, a picturesque charac
ter, and - a man -of delightful person
ality. Strange things havo happened
politically, and one may happen in
June.
Two years ago the people of Uma
tilla county elected a democratic
judge, G. A, Hartman, with tho re
Bult that tho duties of that office have
been looked after for tho past two
years in a business-like way, and the
dobt of tho county has been gradu.

tho good of jtljo couh,ty and thq benoflt
of taxpayers, ono of these commls
alonors Bhould bo a democrat, and
the voters would do tho right thiiig
if ithey elected James Nelson, the
' democratic candidate for commission

The principles of Jefferson are the
definitions and axioms of free socl
ety. And yet they are denied and
evaded, with no small bIiow of sue
cess. One dashingly calls them "gilt
tering generalities." Another blandly
calls them "self-evident lies." And
others insiduously argue that they ap'
ply to '"superior races." These ex
pressions, differing in form, are iden

Those who deny freedom for others
deserve it not for themselves, and
under a just God cannot long retain
it. All honor to Jefferson to the
man who, in the concrete pressure of
a struggle for national Independence
by a single people, had the coolness
forecast and capacity to introduce
Into a revolutionary document an ab
stract truth, applicable to all men and
all times, and so to embalm it there
that today, and in all coming days, it
snail be a rebuke and a stumbllnc
block to the very harbingers of re
appearing tyrany and oppression.
Letter In reply to H. L. Pierce and
other republicans of Boston, Inviting
Mr. Lincoln to attend a celebration of
Jefferson's birthday, April C, 1859.
These by their representatives In
old Independence hall Bald to he
Whole race of men: "We hold those
truths to be self-evident; that all
men are created equal; that tluy nre
endowed by their Creator with cer
tain inalienable rights: -.hat amim
these are life, liberty and tho pursuit
of happiness." This was their niaits
tic interpretation of the economy of
tho universt. This was their lofty
and wise and noble understanding of
tho Creator to his creatures. Yes
gentlemen, to all his creatures, to the
whole great family of man. In their
enlightened belief, nothing stamped
with the divine image was sent into
the world to be trodden on and d
graded and imbrulted by Its fellows
They grasped not only the Whole race
of men then living, but reached for
ward and grasped the furthcrfst pos
terity. They erected a beacon to
guide ihelr children and their child
ron's children, and the countless my.
dads who would inhabit the earth in
other ages. Wise statesmen as they
were, they knew the tendency of
prosperity to brood tyrants and so
they established these great self-evl
dent truths, that when in the distant
future, some man, or faction, some
interest should set up the doctrine
that none but Anglo-Saxon white men
wore ontitled .to life, liberty and the
pursuit or happiness, their posterity
might look up again tho Declaration
of Independence and take courage to
renew the battles their, fathers be
gan, so that truth and justice and
mercy and til the huninne mid Chris.
At-.. . .1.'! . - - '
uan virtues might not bo ext nmi sh
ed from the land! so that no jiian
would dare to limit and circumscribe
tno great principles on which tho
temple of liberty was, being built.
Now, ray countrymen, if you have
been tnu;ht doctrines cmMd Ing with
tho great landmarks of the Declara
tion of Independence; if you have
listened to suggestions which would
take away from Ub grandour and
muriate tho fair symmotry of its
proportions;, if you have boon lnclln
ed to 'boliovto that all men are not
created equal in thoso Inalienable
rights enumerated In our chart of lib-1
erty; let me entreat you to come;
back." Return to the fountain whose
waters spring close by the blood of;
the revolution. Think nothing of me; j
take no thought for the political fate
of any man whomsoever, but come
back to tho truths that are In tho De
claration of Independence. You may
do anything with me you choose, If
you will bur heed these sacred prin
ciples. You may not only defeat me
for the senate, but you may take me
and put me to death. While pretend
ing no indlfferance to earthly honors,
I do claim to be actuated In this con
test by something higher than an
anxiety for office. I charge you to
drop any paltry thought for any
man's Bticcess; It is nothing; I am
nothing; Judge Douglass is nothing.
But do not destro the Immortal em
blem of humanity the Declaration of
Independence. Speech at Beards
town, 111., Aug. 12, 1858.
Those arguments that are made,
that the inferior race nre to be treat
ed with as much allowance as If they
are capable of enjoylug, that as much
is to be done for them as their condi
tion will allow what are these argu
ments? They are the arguments that
kings have made for enslaving the
people in all ages of the world. You
will find that all the arguments in
favor for king-craft were of this class.
They always bestrode the necks of
the people, not that they wanted to
do it, but because the people were
better off for being ridden. That is
their argument, Turn it
whatever way you will whether it
come from the mouth of a king as an
excuse for enslaving the people of
his country, or from the mouth of
one race as a reason for enslaving
the men of another race, it Is all the
same old serpent; and I hold If that
course of argumentation that is made
for the purpose of convincing the
public mind that we should not care
about this, should be granted, it does
not stop with the negro. I should
like to know, If, taking that old De
claration of Independence, which
declares that all men are equal upon
principle, and making exceptions to
It, whore will it stop? If one man
says it does not mean a negro, why
not another say It does not mean
some other man? If that Declara
tion Is not the truth, let us get the
statute book in which we find it and
tear it out! Who is so bold as to do
It! If it is not true let us tear It out.
(Cries of No, No.) Let us stick to It,
then, let us stand firmly by It, then.
Let us discard all this quib
bling about this man or the other
man, this race and that race, and oth
er race being inferior and therefore
they must be placed in an inferior po
sition discarding our standards that
we have left us! Let us discard all
these things and unite as one people
throughout this land until we shall
once more stand up declaring that all
men are created equal.
leave you hoping that the lamp of lib
erty will burn in your bosoms until
there shall no longer be a doubt that
all men are created equal. Speech
at Chicago, III., July 10, 1858.

to fire a hot shot at W. M1. Pierce by
reference to the "perquisites" he re-
cloved while clerk of Umatilla coun
