At the Presidential election Grant only lacked 164 votes of getting the electo ral vote of Oregon. There are upwards of two hundred colored voters in Oregon. Nine-tenths of this class vote the Republican ticket throughout the United States. This is the reason why Democrats howl for a “white man’s government and this is one rea son why we favor the Fifteenth Amendment. Our colored population show they deserve to be enfran chised by voting against rebels and democrats.— DowelVt Washington Letter to the Sentinel, January 17<A. S fbakino L ast S aturday .—On last Saturday evening Hon. JH- D. Fay addressed the citizens of Jackson county, at the Court House, on the po litical questions of the day. It was one of Mr. Fay’s happiest efforts ; in which the principles in- volv d in the Democratic platform were ably sus tained, and the corruptions and evil designs of the Republican party thoroughly ventilated. The idle sophistry of George L. Woods vanished like snow before a noon-day sun and he was routed from •very position, while his official acts were portrayed to the audience in such truthful and glowing col ors, as to cause Woods—who was present—to Writhe like a poor worm in hot embers. Mr. Fay then proceeded to photograph the noble Palmer, which was done with artistic strokes, and the hide ons thing held up to the ecorn and contempt of the entieai publio. Mr. Fay then administered a bit- tor pili to the fnsionists, and closed amid the firing of guns and tho cheers of the assembly. Old Dowell commenced his leading editorial last week by saying that the “New Ticket” was gotten up in the interest of the Republican party ; and, at length, continued to present to the publio the merits of the several candidates running uponit. He calls it a “People’s Ticket.” Dowell is the mother of it; Bill Ish— its father. How many God-fathers and old grannies were in attendance when it was born, he don’t say ; we learn, how- ver, from other sources that a few sore heads were around, simply to do the dirty work. A. H. Martin heads the ticket. Dowell says he is a Democrat; we say he has a poor way showing it. Mr. Martin was tendered a place on our Leg islative ticket; he declined upon the ground that it did not pay enough. To go to the Legislature, said he, “won’t pay; I work for money.” Ilg has accepted1 a similar position upon the Republi can ticket, and the inference is that he has been bought, and we say emphatically that a Democrat who can be bought to run upon a Republican ticket, can be beught to vote for a U. S. Senator in favor of Chinese suffrage ; furthermore, we have it from the best of sources that ho obligated himself to support Old Williams for the Senate, before he was permitted to go upon the ticket. “With the Republican Committee, we went down into the camp of the enemy, and rescued E. II. Greenman.” We are glad that Greenmun has been captured by the enemy. Arnold like, he has been s eking an opportunity to betray his friends. He never was anything but the tale-end of the Demo cratic party, or something under that. Mr. Smith, of Oregon. I Following is the extract from Mr. Gastons Rail road letter to the Oregonian which was suppressed by that paper. It contains pretty good evidence whether or not Oregon Democrats are opposed to railroads. We copy from the Herald : We print here the suppressed parts of Mr. Gas ton’s letter, and commend it to the attention of all lovers of tair play, whether Republicans or Demo crats. We italicize the words that the Oregonian omits : “After Fitch's epeech the floor was then first given to McCormick, of Mo., for three minutes, to state the position of the Public Lan >s Committee in favor ef the bill ; thirteen minutes to Smith. who had the management of the bill, to answer ques tions and push the bill to a vote. It being near five o’clock when Smith got the floor, and the House becoming impatient, although by general consent he was authorized to take hl* own time to explain, yet feeling the great importance of reaching a vote before adjournment, which would have defeated us, af er a few telling sentence», repudiating the Dem», cracy of Holman, and wtth a few of tho»e gesture» for which Smith's long arms are remarkable, a id by which he teemed to b reaching out to the “crack of doom,” he called the previous question upon Ool- mati,» motion to refer. (Other matter.) Although »»» poor health, Mr. Smith managed the contest in the Haute ably and successfully, and he denerve» the gratitude of the We»t Side people. * * (Other mat ter ) The Oregonian intimates that Mr. Smith »— troduced hi» bill to embarrass Senator William» and the West Side Road. I, of course, do not know hi» motive» ; but I do know that from the day the IK'Z- Hams’ bill pa»»ed the Senate, Mr. Smith labored faithfully and manfully to »ecure the postage of our bill; and by hi» courtesy, moderation and general good standing here, he secured for us what no other Democrat cou'd, a large num'ier of Democratic vote», when hit party was against ns on the question. I trust I have »aid enough on this subject, but no more than candor and justice required.” R emember , That W. K. Ish, in a public speech at Ashland on Thursday alternoon, assert ed that the Speckled-Legislative ticket was con- e mted in order to assist Geo. H. Williams to a seat in the U. S. Senate to vote for the amendment to the Constitution, rescinding the $50,000 inde’ ted- ness prohibition clause in the State Constitution ; to favor the guarantee by the State of the payment of the interest on Ben. Holladay’s Railroad bonds, and to further Mr. Ish’s private interests. Voters, Lookout. Voters of Jackson county, we have it from re liable Republicans that Dowell ami Bi>l. Ish forced C. W. Kahler to sign certain papers before they would cansent to let him remain upon the ticket tor County Judge. There is some deep-laid scheme at work to routo the tax-payers of this county out of their hard earned money, and we warn them to lookout. Mr. Kahler running upon the Dowell birth is a different man from Kahler running upon the Republican ticket; while upon the latter he was responsible to his party and the people. In leaving it, and signing written articles, he becomes responsible to Dowell and Bill Ish only, and is bound to assist the n in their hellish schemes. Contract Taken. Smith A Howard have taken the contract to make the coffin, jn which to bury the first birth of Dowelland Ish. Funeral will take place at 10 o’clock Monday night next. Old Mike will preach the funeral sermon from the well known text : ‘Thus passes away the political corpse of the Dowsll birth.” Friends and acquaintances are respeotfully invited to attend. News Items. To Weak-kneed Democrats. The Eneign says that Wheeler, of Nevada, was to start on last Monday with 1,000 head of oattle. ■* The members of Capt. Goff’s co. K. W. T. M. V.» who were in the Indian war of 1856, are requested to meet in Salem, July 4th* 1870. The corner stone of the New Mint at San Fran cisco, was laid on the 25th ult. The building ia to be finished in about one year, at a cost of a Mil lion and a half dollars. The Fenians have again invaded Canada. A fight took place at Freelingsburg, on the 25th ult,— Fenians victorious. - The Statesman speaks of potatoes grown near Humphrey's Fery, that have no tops—no growth* above ground. Mr. C. Miller of Baker county, was drowned in' Burnt river, on the 28th ult, says the Bedrock Democrat. Mosby, tn ex-Confederate Colonel, is at present organizing Fenian cavalry. A Democratic daily paper is about to bo started at Washington, with a capital of $100,000. < Both Houses of Congress have agreed to adjourn' on the 15th of July. The Herald says that “among the two-hundred and sixty-seven Chinese coming by the Herman* Doctor, seventy-five are prostitutes.” China has long been looking for some distant and convenient part of the globe, to which to send her increasing millions of pirates, thieves and prostitutes, and has found it at last, and secured by a treaty. t In Portland they have freo concerts at the pub lic square, nearly every afternoon, by the 23d I d «- fantry Brass Band. Do not listen to what these men tell you, who say there is no political issue—no groat principle, involved in a county election. The idea that you can be a consistent Democrat and defeat your own county ticket, is absurd. Nobody but a Black Re publican or a sore-headed Democratic place-hunter would h ive the effrontery to assert such rubbish. Wh it a humiliating thing it would be if the Re publicans were to carry the Legislature by one or two majority on joint ballot, just because Jackson county had elected Republican representatives, thereby re-electing that bag of conceit, George II. Williams, to the U. S. Senate. You may rely upon it every man elected (if any are) upon that Zebra ticket will cast his vote for Williams, be cause Williams is Holladay’s lackey in Congress, and Ilolluday is furnishing the money to aid the bolter-. Rebuke them by casting an unscratched ballot for the Democratic nominees, and show them that “as Jackson goes, so goes the State.” C ramond . Suffice it to say, that Governor Woods complete ly used Mr. Grover up, and clearly refuted all charges against the Republican candidate for Gov ernor.— Ensign.
