V. B. Carter, of the Corvallis Gazette, is
preparing to commence the publication of a
monthly p'apor, to be devoted to the temper
ance cause, and to be the organ of the I. 0.
of Good Templars.
A Fizzle. L, Stout and Judge Wait tried
hard to raise a crowd In Corvallis last week,
to tell men how to vote ; but the people did
not appreciate being bored, and so would not
attend,, which causod the rally to fizzle.
What has become of the Index t We have
not seen its familiar face for about a month.
We are inclined to the opinion that its Dem
ocratic boiler must havo " busted " from an
over-dose of bad whisky bat we are mis
taken, for the editor of the Index belongs to
tUo (intemperance society.
Fay said in bis speech at Eugene City that
he would be In favor of admitting Jeff. Davis
to a seat in the United States Senate if be
should, be elected by Mississippi or any other
Southern State. .Do' the citizens of Wasco
. county desire to be represented in Congress
by such a man as this ? We think not, and
will so decide on Monday neit.
" Things, have changed very much in the
latt tour years, f our years ago we naa a
great war npon our hands." Lane, in hi
tpeeeh at the Court Uoute tn Eugene City.
Should'nt b surprised. Four years ago
you would have gone South to fight with
Davis & Co., if yon could have got there.
Your bree-thren were there so the family
were represented.
Wi learn that Lieut. W. I. Henderson has
bwn' transferred from the 12th U S Infantry
t&' the" 1st U. S. Cavalry, in the regular army.
-State Journal.
Wonder if there are such things as exam
ining boards In the regular army ? If there
are, we tbiuk Lieut. Henderson's chances of
getting Into any regiment are very slim.
We see it going the rounds of the press
that the Grand Lodge I. 0. O. F. had an ex
cursion to Celilo, while In session in this
city, by Invitation of the O. S. N. Company.
'ibis is a mistaicer iue invitation was ex
tended by Columbia Lodge, of this city, who
paid the Company for the trip. This, we
believe, originated in. the Oregonian, and
should be corrected injustice to the members
of Columbia Lodge.
Ever citizen of this county who desires
to see our local interests advanced must vote
the whole Union ticket. The candidates are
all honorable men,, and are well known to
every citizen. True, there are some good
men, and some we personally respect on the
other ticket, yet they are in bad company,
add will have to be classed with the com
pany they keep. The proof that some of the
candidates on the Democratic State ticket
are disloyal, and have taken treasonable
oaths, is overwhelming. The standard bear
ers dt' the Democracy say they are for "prin
ciples"' and "not for men." They are for
the ptinciplos of their oath-bonnd, treasona
bio associations. The Onion party are for
men and principles. It is for the voter to
choose between, the black sheep and the
wuito. -
Jons B. WHr.LSR, whose name is notorious
'throughout the coast as a traitor to. his
country, an advocate of a FaciBo Republic,
ana a plotter or treason), has bis thumb
paper posters out to speak at the Court House
on Saturday. We learn that he intends
going with the Rev. Carvingfork Smith to
Brownsville on next Tuesday. We wonld
adviso our Copperhead friends to endeavor
to procure a piece of .Airs, euratt's old dress
or a lock of hair from the bead of J. Wilkes
Booth for their speakers to exhibit.. Great
enthusiasm could be raised among the faith
ful by exhibiting such precious Democratic
relics. Albany Journal.
A man of the same name is " posted" to
speak here on Saturday night. The Rev
Carvingfork is not announced ; ' but we have
a natural curiosity from Polk here, who lbs
vwuiuvrma siuton occasionally.
.-.. v
Speaking Last Etching. The candidates
for the Legislature addressed the citizens at
Cbapin's Hall last evening. The Hall was
well filled with anxious listeners to the speak
ers. Mr. Hogue opened the debate, and took
the ground on national affairs as has all the
candidates of the Union party. On local is
sues he showed, and we think to the satis
faction of all present, that in regard to the
petition for the reduction of the salary of
the County Judge, that it was gotten np
through personal and political motives, and
not for the benefit of the tax-payers of this
county. He stated, on authority, that somo
of the names attached to the petilion were
forgeries, and, as good authority, he men
tioned that of J. E. Kelly, who, he said,
never signed nor authorized the signing of
bis name to the document by any one. We'
also noticed in the reading of the names that
J. W; Blakely was" not satisfied with his sig
nature'once, for his name ngpears three timee
on the petition. Thus it will be seen that
the whole thing was gotten up through po
liiical and personal prejudice, as stated by
Mr. ITogue. On the matter of county finan
ces he showed that when the present county
officers came into office that this county had
a heavy debt banging over it ; and that now
we are out debt and the county scrip is
worth ninety-five cents the value of sccip
four years ago was forty cents on the dollar.
His position on the Senatorial questioa is as
we noticed a day or two since. He is thor
oughly a friend, of J. W. Nesmitb for re
electiona friend that will be found when
he is wanted; not bound up by party cau
cuses, but free to cast his vote for he man
who is by far the choieeof the people of this
county.
Mr. Uumason followed Mr. Hogne through
his argument in national affairs. He said
that the Democracy was always on the side
of the Constitution and the laws ; be did not
want red banded traitors admitted to Con
gress nntil they were pardoned then be was
In favor of admitting them. This, be said,
Is the position of J. D. Fay and his party.
Now, this sounded rather bad, coming from
Judge Hmnason. Did be think two years
ago that the Democratic party was on the
side of the Constitution and the taws? We
think not. If be did, he certainly acted
wrong in bis opposition to and denunciation
of it at that time. Was not the Democratic
party the same then that it is now? They
say their principles never change. If they
were opposed to the Constitution and the
pcrpetui.ty of the Government two years ago,
as then advocated by Mr. Uumason, are they
not still opposed to them? We caunot see
by what presto change arrangement this par
ty is brought to be the Union party of the
country if we take their doctrine for it- that
their principle- never change, Mr. Uumason
grossly misrepresented J. D. Fay's position
on the admission of Representatives to Con
gress. Mr. Fay has declared In every speech
he has made that be is In favor of admitting
everybody who presents credentials with
out questioning ineir loyally :. ana we
are compelled to take bis as the doctrine of
the party. We have not space to follow Mr
Humason through his entire speech. On our
county affairs be dealt some time on bis pe
tition be said he was the author of it ; he
drew it upand ha4.it circulated, but he failed
to explain how the name of the Democratic
candidate for Governor J. K. Kelly came
on it, and bow it was. that I. W. Blakely's
name appeared on it three times. He thought
the salary of the County Judge was too high
that f COO a year was sufficient compensation
did not know why the salary had been in
creased to $1,200 ; no persons petitioned or
asked the Legislature to do It. We are cog
nix-ant of the factsin thecase,having been Sec
retary of the Convention that put Judge Den
ny in nomination for the office. In that Con
veatlon he was solicited by Messrs. Newell
Logan, and others, then prominent men in
the Union party in this county, to withdraw
from the nomination for tho Legislature and
they would, give him County Judge, an
promised, in our presence, to have the salary
Increased to the present figures. These are
the facts in the matter, and we wore of th
opinion that Mr. Hmnason knew all about it
He favored the re-eleoiion of J. W. N'csmith
to' the United States Senate, "first, last and
all the time" Will he ot Mr. Dodge refuse'
(o go into and support the nominee of.th
Democratic caucus? ? Not much..
Mr. Koegel was next called for, and made a
short speech. ,He had the utmost confidence
n the integrity of President Johnson, and the
ial adjustment of the present questions by
the party in power. He was sound on the
Senatorial question; being a "brother chip" of ;
NnRfniLh'H. hn wmilfl vntn fnr him. Air. llflB- i

and at different times " brought down the
ouse." ,
Mr. Dodge was also very brief, in fact be
ad notbine to say. He appeared much em
barrassed, and without his mentioning it, any
person could see that it was bis ''Drat appear
ance on any boards." He said he was a Dem
ocrat; always bad been one; endorsed the
platform of the Democratic State Convention ;
would favor the re-election of Mr. Nesmitb ;
was in Washington last winter; saw the Sec
tor ; found bim a last friend of Eastern Ore
gon. JJe would work in tlie Le6lslalure, if
elected, for the interests of this county. Mr.
Dodge did not enlighten us how he stood on
any political question, nor on-our county af
fairs further than is noticed. Bring one of
the "true blue," we suppose he swallows
verything in the name of Democracy, even
treason, when dUguisod in that shape. Mr.
Hogue was replying to Mr. Humason's speech
