W ith such roots of bitterness in the Radi
cal ranks, unreconciled, as the old Tolman
and Thompson war, the Dowell and Apple
gate,feyd, the Haines and Dowell fight, the
Colver and Jacobs controversy, the Ray and
anti Ray, Sutton and anti-Sutton, Hanley
and anti-IIanley, Drake and anti-Drake, and
Maury and anti-Maury cabals and factions,
the Coolie organ unblushinglv talks about its
Opponents being “badly split up.” Good
Lord, how thia world is given to impudence !
“O, wad some power the giftie gie us,
To 8ae oursel’s as ithers sao us ;
Twad frae money a blunder frao us,
And foolish notion.”
The Sentinel on the Situation.
State News.
Our strictures on the conduct of one or two
Democrats afflicted with a /mini a for office,
and pandering the vilest intrigues in order
to obtain their wishes ; and our Charges that
these men were in secret league with the
Radicals, has been verified in an unexpect
ed manner, and very much sooner than we
anticipated. Had there been a denial of our
assertion, wo should, of course, have been
compelled to the proof. But not only has
there been a failure to day, 15tit our Radical
cotemporary« has kiudly relieved us of the ne
cessity of proving that the programme adop
ted bv certain aspirants for remunerative
offices was conceived at tire Radical headquar-
ters, as a means of creatiqg a division in the
Democratic ranks. Usually, beneficiaries of
an admitted treason either deny their com
plicity in the crime, or are entirely silent.
Treachery of all kinds is so abhorent to hu
man nature that there are few, even of those
who are benefitted by the crime, who care to
defend it publicly. Any other course argues,
either a conviction of success and recklessness
of public opinion, or a stupidity as remarkable
as it is fatuous. We were, therefore, unpre
pared for the bold defence which the Senti
nel made last week of thé trtiitors, schemers
and disorganizers whom we have been expos
ing for the last two weeks.
That that virtuons sheet should seek as it
has often done before, to create discord in our
ranks, and fan the flame to the highest pitch,
we expected. In this course lay the only
road open to the success of Radicalism in this
county. The thorny path had been trodden
with bleeding feet by the Radical party in
years gone by, only to meet repoatedly with
hopeless defeat at the end. As the ¡only
road affording a hope we fully expected to see
them once more on their dolorous way to disap
pointment. But tho admission of a league
between the persons we referred to, and/our
colored brethren, implied by the valorous de
fence of the Sentinel, we confess, surprised
us. In assuming the cudgels in behalf of
tho.se we denounced, it admits a sympathy,—a
congeniality of feeling,— a combination of
means, and a common end to be gained, in
the destruction of the uuiry of the Democratic
party. This is precisely what we warned
the Democracy of Jackson was in contempla
tion.
With the verification of our charges afforded
by the Sentinel's position before it, we ask
the Democracy of Jackson to ponder well
the situation. An important election is ap
proaching, both as regards the State and this
county. In justice to ourselves, and to the
State at large, we should poll the largest pos
sible vote. To do this, we must have unity
and peace ; and unity and peaco can only be
secured by turning a deaf ear to the schemes
of disorganizers and traitors, and “hoisting
them with their own petards.”

“A D ivide ? H ouse .”—Our Coolie neigh
bor is suffering from his regular biennial at
tack of nervousness in regard to the alledged
divisions in the Democratic party. Says our
neighbor, solemnly : “It is apparent, that
the hitherto infallible and invincible democ
racy of Jackson, is badly split up.” Now,
as our nervous cotemporary has been saying
the same thing every two years for the last
six, we respectfully submit that it is a little
frayed on the edges, denuded of nap—in fact,
threadbare. As certain as the election ap
proaches, the ominous announcement appears
in the columns of our cotemporary, and as
regular as the election comes, the statement is
“coppered” with a democratic majority of
from 100 to 280. A reference to old files of
the Sentinel will show this. This terrible
announcement used to scare us some six
years ago, but we have become so muëh ac
customed to see it since, that now we don’t
scare worth a d—darn. “Shoo fly, don’t
bodder me.” •

Heretofore farmers have found it to be a
difficult matter t) clean flax seed - with any
machinery that they could obtain. Mr. T.
Duval of this place ha9 determined to make
a machine that will meet the wants of the
flax raisers. Ilia fanning mill resembles the
common fan, except that the “shove” is lon
ger and shake forward and backward instead
of sidewise as in the wheat fan. The screens
are three in number and fasten with a thumb
screw instead of groves, by which arrange
meat they can be set at any angle, The
meshes of the first two screens are long and
narrow, and those of the third are small •and
square. It is thought that Mr. Duval’s fan
ning mill will clean grain of any kind ; diff
erent riddles being the only change necessary.
Tho cost of this new impliment will be about
the same as tie common fanning mill.
Yesterday tho amount of State tax assessed
against Lane county for the year 1869 was
paid into the State Treasury. Eitan county
also paid the last installment oi the tax for
the same year together with the half mill tax
of 1867, which the ceunty refused to pay un
til the State sued and obtained judgement in
the Circuit Court for that amount.
Yesterday, articles of incorporation for the
Albany Canal and Manufacturing Company
were filed in the Secretary of States office.
The business in which the corporation pro
pose to engage is to construct a navigable
canal, with all necessary locks, gates, etc.,
with tow path and keep the same in repair.

Yes’erday wo saw i very intricate and
beautiful piece of machinery manufactured
by Mr. Rudawalt, under the directions of Mr.
J. Fetzer formerly of Lyons France, but for
the past ten years a resident of Salem. The
machine is a part of a loom for weaving silk,
linen and even woolen fabrics, when any
design for figure work is to be executed. It
is an improvement on the Jacquard apparatus,
and can be ^t ached to the common power
loom. Mr. Fetter has filed in the patent
office a caveat for a patent on bis improve
ments.
A Dramatic school has been opened in

The amount of Oregon wool shipped to
San Francisco during the year 1869 was
1,039,400 pounds. Ths receipts of wool from
this State in 1868, 421,460 pounds, show
ing an incaease of 611,940, or more than
one-half.
Judge Olney and D. P. Thompson are in
Washington trying to gobble 500,000 acres
of land, ostensibly to aid in improving the
Willamette.
Messrs. Snyder & Co., Book binders, deliv
ered yesterday to the Secretary of State, a
large lot of Public documents, Senate and
House Journals for the Legislative session of
1868. The Secretary will probably in a few
days mail the same to whom the law directs.
