The Democratic County Convention met
i'estcrday nnd raado nominations for County
officers;, but we havo been unable to obtain
;he names or tho candidates or a copy of the
jiroccedings of tlio Convention. :
Speakino. Gen. llumnson and Col. Gates
nddrossed a crowd of citizens in front of the
"Mount Hood Saloon'.' last night, on the
issues of the day.-':.' A large bonfire was built
in the street, and our democratic friends
seemed to enjoy themselves generally.
Grant County Union Nominations. Tho
I'nion Convention of Grant County niet at
Canyon City, on May 1st. All the precincts
were represented. The following are the
nominations for county officers : For Sena
tor, L 0. Sterns ; for Representatives, T. II.
Brents and M. M. Mckean; for Clerk, A. II,
Morehead ; for County Judge, Fcrd. Adams ;
for County Commissioners, I. II. Wood nnd
Ilobt. Husband ; for Sheriff, M. V. Berry j lor
Treasurer, V, C. Sols ; for Coroner, l)r. J.
limner ; fur Assessor, M. I). Wbitticr.
Wb noticed yesterday an ox-train of ten
wagons, und two large pack-trains, loaded
up tor the John Day country. These teams
belong to Mr. Lockwood, who has been
teaming on this road for some time. They
were loaded at si four of our wholesale houses,
and is but a tithe of what the trade of that
rich mineral region would bo had teamsters
nnd packers any protection fur themselves
nnd their stock against the depredations of
the thieving Indians on the road.
'. .Personal. lions. Hufus Mallory, James
D. Fay and Lafuyette Iano, arrived in town
yesterday from Umatilla, and will address
the citizens of Dalles on to-morrow (Wed
nesday)evening. '. Owing to the condition of
the, roads tbeso gentlemen were unable to
cross the country to fulfill their engagement
at Canyuu City, on tho 6th inst , so the
"dear peeps" of that section were deprived
of a treat in not hearing tliem discuss ihe
all-absorbing topic So much for living
where 'you ore hemmed up by Indians on,
. one. side and mud oh tho other. , ..
Times jn Boisk Uasix. The Idaho World
Bays the ditches are now full of water, nnd
the mining community are busy at work.
Very few idle men are to bo seen on the
streets, giving the town an air of quietude,
in remarkable contrast with that presented
a year ago, when the town was crowded
with an idle, restless population with but
little to do, and with little disposition to
work when work could be obtained. The
claims in Elk an Moore's creeks still afford
work for a large population, and tho banks
of both streams are rapidly caving in under
hydraulic pressure. The claims on the bars
heretofore neglected, are generally paying
better. than even, their mast sanguine owners
anticipated. The supply of labor' is nearly
equal to the demand, though in somo locali
ties more menare wanted than can be found.
Wages continue at six dollars per day, and
.' serea dollars, at night.
Horsr Thiep Caught. Marshal Keelcr-rc-
' ' turned, last evening from the upper country,
having in custody. Uonry Uotnnn, the thief
who stole Messrs. Bush andDoone s horses
rit' Salem, about two weeks since. As soon
ns informationiof the theft reached here, sus
picion was at once attached to Iloman, who
had loft town a few days previous, and Mar
shal Kceler, arming himself with- a warrant,
Btarted in pursuit of the thief. On arriving
at Umatilla, ho procured the assistance of a
man who was acquainted with the country,
and started: after tlu thief whom he tracked
forty miles, and succeeded in capturing two
men who had the animals. After an examlr
T nation, at UmaliJlu, oue of the men was dis
charged, it appearing that he had. nothing
to do with the theft.' The other was turned
over to the- Marshal, who brought bim and
the horses to this city, and' locked the Aowt-
bre up. ' In this; as in all other matters that
requires the prompt action of aapllicer, Mar
shal Keclor- has shown himself a valunblo
man for the position he holds In our municl
nal covernment.. : We would, suggest to the
Valley people that when thefts like this are
committed among them, that they immedi
ately furnish descriptions of their stock to
the officers here, and in very few cases will,
they fail to arrest the, thieves should they

TUB ISSUE,
The great n:ui of those who oppose the
President's plan of reconstruction, as well
as other measures of his administration,,
seems to be to impress upon the public mind
that President Johnson desires the Imme
diate admission of every Southern represen
tative who presents himself for a scat in the
National Congress. They also attempt to
make it appear thnt he is responsible for tho
non-trial of J elf. Davis on tho charge of
treason. In his speech, on Friday night last,
Hon. David Logan accused the President of
these things, when he knew, or plight to have
kuowu, thnt the contrary was the truth, lie
misrepresented the President all through his
speech on every issue that has arisen be
tween the Executive and Congress. On the
other hand, we find that in Southern Oregon,
Mr. Woods, candidate for Governor, has
taken sides strongly in favor, of the Presi
dent, nnd approves of his acts, with a single
exception the veto of the Civil Rights Bill.
Tho Sentinel says that Mr. Woods goes fur
ther than Col. Kelly in the endorsement of
President Johnson. He agrees with tho Ex
ecutive that none but loyal men should rep
resent the Southern States, and the Presi
dent has asserted that Congress should bo
the judge of the qualifications of its own
members ; whilo the Radicals in Congress
have time and again declared that men of
the most undoubted loyalty nnd patriotism
shall not be allowed seats in that body from
the Southern States. The Sail Francisco
Call, always an ubie. supporter of tho Gov
ernment, asserts that the leal issue is be
tween true liberal republican principles, the
real representative system of govcrnmen, and
the oligarchical system. The Radicals con
tend that a few who adhere to u certain set
of theories respecting the negro, shall inuko
laws lor and govern all that portion of man
kind residing in the United States ; while the
President and hid supporters say that all
communities have a right to be represented
nd heard in the making of laws which are
to govern all, insisting only thut the com
munities shnll select to represent them, men
wfiiTaTe FoTsteeped'ru'tfeiisou'ptlia'have not
been guilty of treasonable practices. Upon
the success of the principles contended for
by tho President and his friends, depends
the success, maintenance and glory of our
republican institutions. Those principles
arc the solo foundation of our institutions,
their very life-blood ' .and without their gen
eral acknowledgement and triumph, our in
stitutions must fall to the ground. . If tri
umphant, tho principles contended for by
tbc Utdicals will destroy our institutions as
certainly as -day follows night, for those
principles are as antagonistic to true repub
licanism and liberty, and consequently Na
tional Union, ns absolute right is antago
nistic to positive wrong. With the triumph
of the principles contended for by the Presi
dent, partisan Copperhcadism can have no
sympathy whatever, for, as wo understand
the political element known under that ap
pellation, it was in earnest sympathy with
the rebellion, nnd nothing would now please
it so much ns to seo the principles which
governed it triumphant, for the destruction
of the Union and overthrow of republican
Institutions would follow as a matter of
course.! In fact, if the real leaders of una
dulterated partisan Copperhcadism have any
interest or sympathy in tho Issue now pend
iug between tho President and the Radicals
in Congress, it must bis on the side of the
latter, for the success of tho radical princi
ples will most assuredly produce, though by
diiterent means, tlie very remit tor which
old-fashioned partisan Copperhcadism has
fought nnd contended, viz : the destruction
of tho Union and tho- ovartbrow of rcpubli
can institutions.
