First Blood. Below will be found
tho official rosnlt of tbo election hold
in this city yesterday. It will be seen
that every man put in nomination by
tho Demociacy is dof'eatcd. Of course
cur Uuior. friends claim a big victory
and feel mighty jolly over it.
For our part we heartily rejoice
over it. Thiri paper did all it could in
its humblo way to keep politics out of
our municipal election. Tho Democ
racy, in thoir arrogance thinking that
a Democrotio nomination was equiva
lent to an election, would not listen to
such counsels, but making politics tho
only test, throw tho gauntlet by put
ting a strict party tickotin tho field. Of
course there was nobody left to oppose
them but tbo Union men, and it was
thought tho Union men could not do
anything serious, all alone by lhem
solves at the Dulles. So tho mighty
Democracy went in to win, and then
they would have the prestige, they
said, in tho coming June election. Alus
for the. frailty of human hopes and
Democratic prestiges they bad'nt
counted noses right, and the Union
voters rolled op a majority that will
put the prostige part of it on tho other
bide, if anywhero; and we have no
tears to shed.

IDAHO AND MONTANA ITEMS.
We compile from the Idaho States
man of the 20th of March, the follow,
ing news items:
Maj. Marshal, of the 14th Infantry,
has arrived at Fort B ise to take
command of the f-ub-diatrict ot Boise,
Capt. Walker is thereby relieved.
Political aff'iirs in Montana are get
ting mixed about a bad as in Con
gress. Tho Union men do not recog
nize the approaching Territorial Con
vention, and are preparing to defeat
at Washington any measuro it may
doviso. They ulso declare that they
will not rccoguize any acts passed by
tho Legislature that convened on tho
5th of March.
A largo party of Irish had arrived
from Kootenai and commenced "jump-
ng" claims in Elk and Bear Creek.
They seized and burned the Recorder's
books.
Victims who lost their lives by
freezing at the time of the Sun Eivcr
stampede continue to be found.
The acting Governor is unable to j
obtain commissary storos of the mer
chants and business men to carry on
tho campaign against the Indians.
Tho Irwins are playing at Virginia.
Captain Walker and Lieut. Fepoon
are going again to -visit Lo on the
Owyhee in tho course of three or four
days. They will this time be able lo
mako a more prolonged and successful
stay, as tbo feed is gelling so that
their horses can stand the march
longer. The Captain and all his men
are anxious for another brush. They
know pretty near whore to find it and
aro going after it. There are plenty
of Indians along the Owyhee lo be
found any time within a few days ride.
The Montana Post has tho following
tern in regard to Indians up in Mon.
tana :
From a letter from Georgo Steele,
of Benton, dated the 2Gth ult., wo
learn that the Piegans and Bloods, of
treaty-making notoriety, aro still
camped there, and are stealing every.
thing they can lay their hands upon.
Jerry Mann and Dupont, who had
just como in from Milk River, report
another party ot- white men missing.
who should have been in twenty days
ago. It is thought the Indians have
killed them, as the savages told of a
man being killed near the Bear s l aw
Mountain, two weeks sinco.
A Correspondent of the Salt Lake
Vedette says :
It is unfortunate that tho Govern
ment had not posted a small forco at
l'ort licnton, and this probably would
have been done before, had. not their
ears been abused with steam treaties,
entered into with the beggar portion
of tho different tribes. A large camp
ot riegans are reported ton miles be
low Fort Bonton, numbering eight
hundred warriors, who are said to be
anxious for a fight with their "white
brethren."
In addition to tho nominations al
ready published, the following gontle
men wero selected by tho respective
delegations at the Stnto Union Con
vention as candidates :

Tax election yesterday, though a
spirited contest, passed off quietly
without a single disgraceful or un
J plesaant feature.
A Hoax We are afraid eome
body has been April fooling the local
of the Oregonian, if so, they "done it
good." Bead the following :
We have news of tho discovery of
quartz within ten miles of tho Dalles,
which bids fair to rival tho mosivuluin
bio discovery in tho upper country.
We were shown a specimen of the rock
on Saturday evening, which, if it be
genuine, and exists in quannucs as
eprescnted, wo aro willing to- ad-
init has enough in itsell, to more Uiyn
pay off the national debt, within one
year alter tho mine is successfully
openod. Tho specimen whs so rich,
being covered on nearly three Rides
with gold, and on the fourth with a
soft globulo resembling korurgyrito,
that we wore in doubt about tho pos
ibility ot a ledgo being found, so val.
uable, and yet so liillo being said about
t, but our informant stales ibat the
jcrsons in the secret were not dis
posed to say very much about it ut
prescfit. Tho appearance of the gold
s very dark, and would indicate an
alloy with copper.
