SIIELTOJf, , CHAPTER I. , In presenting the biographical sketch of a noted individual in this county, Wf, I give, aa; the first chapter, the fol lowing frpra tho Weekly Domooratic Press of the 21st inst : We have a few men in this county, formerly Democrats, who are engaged in the exportation business. J. O. SheU ton, the , go-between f-r your gentle Jasper, appears to bo a;kind ol loader. What adornment on the Godandmor" r ali'y party', when we see it engaged in such dirtybusioes as this. 1 To see it employ such a simple creature as Shol-tonf- proves conclusively that "what it lacks, in knavery it makes up in fool. This creature Shelton, some time ago, Was a leader in a Good Templar lodge, upending a portion of his time in a gro cery y between these two he vibrated. While, under, the influence of one, ho made ! an issault on a saloon keeper, and when governed by the other, he courtdd the parsons daughter. Failing to kill his man, and blast the prospects of the fairi Jf. 0. pegged out and, for a time, gave over the pusujt of hapra ness, in the $hape of a wife, and spent his time fighting hid shadow on the wall. , With ;an empty pocket and a broken heart, out ot love, out of cash, he sucked tlie last dropiofi ten cent worth of whisky and left ; After the passage of infamous Fifteenth Amend ment, Sheltou turned up agaia in pur suit of a wife In his eye; tho 4uskv maid ; of the forest became lovely and he looked upon B. T. Whitson to see what could be done in his behalf. Whitson informed him that of that kind, he had hardly enough . to supply local demands and referred him to la folic tt. 5 J. Os "prospects are lovely and in consideration of his labors, in behalf of the glorious Union, soon af ter the, Ides of June, he is to lead to Hymen's bloshing altar one of the fair est of all the fair daughters, rolling in pleasure,' lice and dirt, on' the banks of the cvermurmunnjr lamhill. - site is the chosen veasel, a kind of swivel, on which to turn the Union of the races, in . the bosom of domcstio bliss. At present he is engaged by the Abolition partf to do its dirty work j and illus trate the term- "the Christianity and Spirit of the age." ... We will write no more on this point, as tho upright and virtuous Gault promises to expose all rascals engaged in trying to defeat the wish of the people. AH we have to sy is, if Gault fails in exposing these rascals, Sheltan, Matheny and othors he is as bad if not worse than the mean est man in his party. Come, Gault, no craw-fishing; give these fellows thun der, expose them ox your honesty is damned. ... . ... . ,. ..:. .... CHAPTER II. $io, wo won't fail nor craw fish but proceed at onco to give a full history of a man y ho proved himself so political ly ishonet asi the subject of this bi ographjr, and epecially as we have been, able to learn more facta than were at the command of the writer abjove quo ted, . .r,w.. n order to make it more correct and yeliWe, we .rust gO ibacH toi 18Q4, when Shelton sold himself to the Dm ocrats and exposed the Unioa League. About six months after that the Repuh lieans bought itn, when he exposed the Knights of the Golden Circle by furnishing, the alphabet of the organi 'atioi Folr 1t1eJrtoct' of aoouVa year from this tirao, h(0 tooted th,e spy ! of the; Government, and. was in the,' habit of m'ceting two prominent RepublicAos in .. the 'fire-proof vault in the Court House, in thia place, and detailing; to them ajVtha .was, transacted by th'e or gaoijatio About the, cjfpirtion oft this time he found, it necessary .to emigrate to Oali (vrnhf because the victims oi his treaeb ery were about to prepare a corpse for a special funeral, r. -r-y-r Recently, he returned frora; Califor nia, saying that hef had voted for Grant; that he ras a Republican and shouU vote 'the Republican ticket and pro duced a letter, purporting to bo from a citizen of California, corroborating this statement. He represented that he was strapped and wanted to stay in the county, until i after the electioa and wanted to borrow" some money to get himself something to cat. Whereupon Mr. Boone loaned him some. . Since then, that is to say, about a week ago, the Democrats bought him, and he is now very prominent in the canvass and is except Mr. Ilayden tho mast talkative, man for Democratic principles, now in the. county, :; Apart from his oratorical powers he has shown a remarkable fitness for, making, aflSda- vits, exhibiting his own Worthlessncss and want of honor. Moro' than that, he, by his sworn scatemcot, gives it out that the Republicans can "' buy ; hira again before oleotion, if thoy desiro so tO dO. . ml , v-: VV. - Bv the attention with which; ho is received and prominence given him, he is the most truthful man in the can vass. ' ' .;' . . ..- . ' , ; :' ' - l-' ; -;' CHAPTER III. This chapter will.be filled out by the Salem Press, when the subject of this sketoh is bought by the Republicans The ABoeIatlon of Gentlemen Called) Have Lied Again. (So- In the Daily Press of the 23d, it is stated that' the resolutions of the Union Republican Convention, at Dal las, declared in favor of a white man's governmcnt.1 f This 'is another Iving tale of the "gentlemen (so-called);" but we aro not surpr)scd aa this h in perfect consonance and .keeping with theirjijiate proclivities. They also say that Congress' and f the Fifteenth Amendment declare in favor of unirer- sal suffrage. This is also, fle and in harmony with the. habits of the so called gentlemen. The 'troth! i. there is no ioconsutency fo be found in the platform of our: party in this county, but the resolutions express the honest sentiments of our party. Tho first w simply the formal part, endorsing the State "platform. This is done by all Covnty Conventions in both parties, whether they endorse it in every par ticular or not How is it about the 8th resolution ? Who's lied about that ? and who has acted the hypocritl The other three resolutions are the pet measures of the party in Polk county, and stand outside and do not clash with our State platform. The first declares in favor of economy in the administration of all our political affairs, tho good old denioeratio doc trine. The second declares hat we are opposed to so patching up our Consti tu tion that the people of this State will be financially ruined by bankrupt cy. W hat have you to ay against that, you lying clan ? And the third declares that, while we cheerfully ac quiesce in the laws oi the land, we are opposed to any further extension of the elective franorrise to any save the white races. What is there here of which you so mournfully complain ? Do you And fault with us becanse ' we da not declare- ourselves outlaws as you did in 1801, or is it because wo are opposed to any further i cxtensioa of the ballot to any except white persons,1 the very principle yoursay- is correct fi3"Coe out and explain, you sneaking falsifiers. The truth is, i n' th is respect, we only speak our honest sentiments as a party. We were, opposed to extending the bal lot to other races of men at all, but the majority has decided against Jus and 'ike good and 'law-abiding citizens, we are willing to submit aud oboy&th? and now say in i our rcsolutioas like honest men that we are opposed to any further extension in that directiopi'and intend tpi. fight it so long as theses Uon is before the people and remains a debatable ine j and what is mbr,e, we do not inten you shall outdo us it op position it, because, 1st, we think it Wrong upan principal, and, 2d, are op posed to it as a matter of policy, foB we know that when the thing is r regulated three-fourth of . all the Negroes In diani, Chinamen, Malays and. tr.au -cat rs will ote theDemocratio ticket np "birds of a feather will flock together." -.-And now,-ta dispose -cf-you? -dirty sheet, and of tho boldest exhibition of unwashed lies ever penned by-things lm human' fehape, we say o this "asso ciation fof gentlemen (so-qalled)" that, while Iwe must and are willing tosub 'mit to the law "while it remains such upon our statute books, we have the proud consolation of knowing that this new (angled, repudiationpuntewified, State 8Upreraaey Democracy Uf tisVdnb roit and take it , too- together with every nullifier, secessionist .and rod handed traitor in the land. Preaching and Practising. Mr. Editor : While Jn my medi-. tations to-day, a spirit of wonder .came into ray mind,- and I was led to wonder if you ever heard a Democratic Divine preach, with all the eloquence the sub ject should demand, that ffighteovsness, Temperanee and ; Tru) Justice might prevail in the land, then fall oohis knees and pray,' with all the vehemence he could command, that such a state of things might be brought about here in our.country. , I wonder if you ever knew this same class of Divines accept calls to deliver temperance lectures, extoll the cause, urge the Lodges to exert all ttfeir influ ence in behalf of so worthy a . cause. I wonder again, if you ever went to the polls on Monday morning, when their warm, fervent prayer had scarcely got cold since the preceding Sabbath, and deposit a ticket for men to fill high and responsible positions who arc con stantly propagating the vices the Di vine so loudly prayed to rid tho coun try of. ; I wonder what you will think of the following transaction : Mr. S. was golhg to move to Southern Oregon j he had a note on Brother B. for 100, due one year from date wl'h ten per cent, interest.- Mr. S goes to Mr. W.; says he , Is going to leave and roust have money I wijh to sell the note on B. Says Mr. W. what will you take? fc?ays S: I will take its face. Cant give it; B. may fall and a great many ex cuscs are made, and finally offers S50 S. reluctantly accepts, saying he . has tried variously to do better. The year volls round i Mr. W. cala rri Bro. B. forhis money Says Bro. B., I aai in favor of 1 equitabl adjustmtnt;. you only paid 550 for the note, that amount I will pay you, interest on the sirrie j if you can get any more by law, go in. Mr. W., knowing he is at the end of the rope, takes 855. ? The Rev. Divine,; hearing of the transaction, calls a meeting of a num- Ver of, the old, long-flietd brethren to deal with Bro. B., who tries to defend his case by the principle equitnMe, f$c. but the vote is taken and Bro. B. slides overboard. The Rev. Divine gets on his knees and prays again, loud and long, in favor of rightemtnts, temper anc and true justice, warning Bro B. of the consequences of such conduct; Monday, election day, Divine on hand in big glce-votes for .the above de scribed candidate, standing on repudia tion , or equitable adjustment, just as poor Bra B. did a lew days before. (Parsons, contrast the abovo transac tion with that of the Government with the bondholders.) ' ; J Do you wonder if there are infidels all . around these same Divines f and the number increasing ? I say let them traverse land and ?ea, let' them go up to their great ; convocations and 'pray, and groan and groan, and pray, to sake one convert, but . sad it is, when they have made him he is more the child of hell than kiore, with ' suoh surround. g8.x::? ?
