Tt knowo in all parts of the Un ion that Oregon is comparatively a new State, anj that there are many locali-. tics where capitalists can -invest their money with the certainty- of realizing princely f octanes in the near future. Since there is a liktiiihood of the Hum boMt Hroad going into Rogue River Valley the region of country about L:nk river is one of great importance. Link river is a stream containing half as much wafer as the Willamette sit S ilem. It connects the upper Klam ath" Lake with the lower one, and is about a mile long; in that distance there is a fall of sixty or seventy feet in a succession of cascades. The bed if the stream is solid rock. The dif ference bctweeu high and low water mark is not more than thirty inches. XVe consider it the best water power in the State. ' The Lake above is about forfy miles long and in places twenty mites wide, with water sufficient to float boats as large as any on the Willamette river. Williamson river is also navigable for a .considerable distance. There is more navigation in the Klamath Lake coun try than in the Willamette Valley. On the east side of the Lake fine grazing lands stretch away for miles. On. the west lie 'the 'Cascade " Mouu tains with a heavy growth of timber down to the very brink of the Lake. The timber for lumbering purposes eatmot be excelled, and jt is easy of ac cess too. Rafts can be made of any size Jand floated to the mills on Link river The distance to carry these rafts is not more than 15 or 20 miles. If the railroad is built to that neigh borhood, lumber mills would have Ne vada and all the intervening country for a market. Aside from the lumbering interests, there is no locality offering greater in ducements to parties desiring to erect woolen factories. The wool is produc ed on the spot, and only the dye stuffs mast bo imported. Link River, some day : will be. the location', of a thriving nianufacturing city. Election Returns. The offioiat vote of the State has not yet been announced, and we have not heard the official count from all the counties west of the Cascade Moun tains. Ve give below the majoiities estimated and official, as we have been able .to gather from our latest exchan ges. . The vote is on Congressman : Countiet. . REP. Jackson.. 224 101 260 Douglas .....,. fcino Linn. A Benton 15 M'asco S Umatilla ....... Union....,.,, t 245 67 Columbia............ Multnomah......... 404 Clackamas 67 Clatsop ......,... fll Washington 135 Yatnbill 27 Marion, U5 Polk,. ..... fll 40 U'.70 Josephine -t.,.,. Baker "1052 Democratic majority.,., 3! In this repprt some counties are not given for the reason that we have no reports from them. We think the re sult will not vary many votes from tnese figures Three precincts heard from in Grant county, give 41 Repub lican majority. There is doubt about hof the legislature will stand. If Grant county has elected Republicans and the contest iti Wasco shall be in favor of u?, we will have a majority of one in the House. Theodore Clay, son of Henry fjlay the statesman, died last month in a Kentucky Insane Asylum, aUthe ad vanced age of GO years. . He had been an Inmato of the institution for thirty years. ' Ho was a young man of great 'promise, and at the age of 30 was one of the most promising lawyers at- the Kentucky - bar, but having formed an attachment for a young lady who dis , couraged bis attentions and refused his proposals, he" became insane and so re mained until the time of his death. The OregQnian thinks that Slater's majority in the State will be about 200. !Lay Delegati u. The Methodist- Conferences of the United States have all voted on the quastion of Lay Delegation, with the following result: Ayes, 4,947; nays, 1,627, counting the vote of the Hast Maine Conference-as now reported for ty-three to fourteen, but that body hav ing ninety three members, the thirty six, should auy considerable number of them record their votes in the negative, may change the relative, proportions to the defeat of the measure. As- the tally now stands there is an excess for the measure, under the three fourths rule of the discipline, of but twenty two. The Conference of Germany and Switzerland, which is to meet on the 10th of June, to attend which Bishop Simpson is about to sail for Europe, has vet to vote. This Conference has forty-five members. The great and grave question, therefore, is seriously to affect ,and 0 radically to change the government of the strongest church in America, is left to the decision of fbf cigners, to a mission Conference. How its members will vote is unknown, but it wbelic'ved they will support the measure. That Bishop Simpson is to preside over them when the election shall be had is a favorable indication. The most intense interest will pervade the church, and not only the church, but all progressive people, until the de cision of the foreign Conference shall be known. This measure of Lay Delegation or iginated in Oregon about 12 years ago and w.as for a longtime denominated by Eastern church men, the Oregon Lay Delegate system. The measure is one that is purely , American 'aud peculiarly the offspring of a new country where the people have breached the air. of simple freedom. If the Lay Delega tion system shall be adopted, one more link in the chain of arbitrary rue will have been broken, and tlrtf people will, erelong rule in church affairs as they now do in State. ' The plan of lay representation and its operations, should it be adopted, a paper "of the church states in brief as follows: It goes only to the General Conference, which sits every fourth year, in the month of May the next regular session being in 1872. Each Annual . Conference is entitled to two lay delegates. The various districts in the Anuoal Conference elect delegate, which meet at the seat of the Annual Conference next before the meeting of the General Conference, on the secoud day of the session, and select by ballot two representatives, who shall sit in the General Conference with equal power and authority as the clergy. The cler ical and lay votes may be taken seper ately, if called for by the Conference, and in case the clergy vote oue way and the laity the other, the total vote shall decide the disagreement. Claries Dickens, the celebrated Eng lish novolist, is dead. There is perhaps no writer who has had his productions sj widely read, during his lifetime, as Dicken3 He had no equal in the mat ter of describing his characters, aud this quality has made his writings ap pear tedious to many readers. He lev eled his shafts of wit, sarcasm and crit icism at snobbiog, whether he found it in high or low circles, and yet he, him self, was a snob. America can never name Dickens as a friend ; his visits to this country were those of fault find ing and money getting. But with ali his faults, Dickens has left a literature that will be standard in its line. The Democratic News exulting over the late election says, Oregon is redeem ed, thank God, fiom the thraldom to which she has been subjected by the Williamses, the Woodses, and Gibbses, and Cookses. Just so and .we suppose, of course, the Neivs desires to pass the State qui etly into the hands of the Laneses, the Fayses, the Shielses, and the Whitea kerses, and Jpne3 familicse?! Go it you rebels, your rule will end in 1872. The Jacksonville News is particular ly severe on the Democrats in Jackson county who refqsed tq yote the Demo cratic ticket. By the tone of that pa per, it would sepm that Demoprats arp owned by the party, and must ratify what is set up 1 y the conventions, or, in other words, that Democrats are not freemen. ' Tue lilcction lu Wasco County. A correspondent writiug to the Ore gonian from Dalles City gives the fol lowing history of the proceedings had in that county on election day : Democrats ' pretend that the poll books from two Republican precincts, have not yet come in, and Republicans suspect that Democrats do not intend to have them come within the ten days provided by law. If they are not in it will be because Democrats deem it nec essary to keep them out in order to " elect" their candidates, to all of whom they will give certificates, which they can do with as much propriety and more honesty than many other things they have doue. According to returns, majorities in this county stand thus : Wilson 8 : GroverS; Chadwiek 5 y Fieischner G ; Patterson G; McArthur 2, Lasswell 3: Waldron, (Rep.) Representative, over Fulton. 1 Savage, Dem.) over Row land, 20; Wood, (Rep.) Cowiniissioner, 2; Fitzgerald, (Dem.) Commissioner, 12; Holland, (Dem.)Clerk, 14; 1 ird, (Dem.) Sheriff, ; 30; Ruuh. (Rep.) Treasurer, 2. . - All of the-men at work on the mints noTtu thx county over 00 days befyre commencing work were ruled out on the county ticket, and some on State ticket. Five votes wre rejected be cause they had not taken out their full citizen papers six mouths before the election, though they were honorably discharged soldiers, and had been ad mitted to citizenship within the last two months. Several Republicans were driven away by the judges, and not allowed to vote, although they were well known residents of the county and offered to take the oath provided by -law. We arc legally and justly entitled to not less than ten votes on the State and 40 on the county ticket that were re jectcd. He can throw out from ten to twenty that voted their tickets illegally. Not less than eight (perhups more) of their men were allowed to vote for' Rep resentatives, and five their entire, coun ty tiekef, in other precincts than where they reside. ..They have beaten us only by the most villainous aud outrageous frauds And if we submit now we can never hope to have another election with tf:e least decree of honesty or fairness. We shall go after them and crowd the rascally judges to the bitter e nd. I am entirely confident we can make it cost them dearly. . Upm a contest we will secure every county official, We are going to the bottom of the matter., During the late campaign the Al bany Democrat denounced Fay's re pudiation disgorgement, letter, and de sired that it should be distinctly under stood that Fay was not a Democrat. ; The election is over, and now Fay's organ, tbe Democratic News, claims that Mr. Fay, with his disgorgement principles, has succeeded by eleven majority, and comes back at Mr. Dem ocrat, and charges it with being a sub sidised 'sheet, and with lending its ready aid to defeat the Democratic can didate for State Senator in' Jackson county. Them's ,the licks ! Hurrah for the Democracy ; go after them Fay, for ii is as you say, the repudiation disgorge ment plank is all that is left of modem Democracy, stand by your c-jlors.' Skin him Mr. Democrat, for if Fay's dis gorgement principle succeeds, you are gone to the devil sure. Who will sue cecd Judge Williams, eh ? Shoo fly ! Gounsky, a tailor in Salem, wa3 ar rested this week aeharged with voting two times on election day. We have not learned the result of ,the trial, but from what evidence that was disclosed, it appears that Gounsky voted for State and District officers at Aurora precinct, and then in the afternoon voted at Salem the District and county ticket again. Election in 18G8 and 1870. The Oregonian in making comparisons be tween the results of the election two years ago, and the contest just decided, says : Two years ago the counties of Multnomah, Marion, Polk, Washington; Yamhill, Douglas, Lane, Linn, Clacka mas, Clatsop and Columbia gave Logan 7,449 and Smith 7,487. The Repub lican gain in the counties that have been fully reported, , a? -compared with the vote in the last election for Con gressman, is 574. The Democratic loss in the same counties is 145, which makes the net Republican gain in elev en counties 71JK v A Pennsylvania widower with four children married a widow with nine, and now he is browsing around after a divorce. He prayed for his own off. springs at family prayers, but wouldn't put up a petition for hers, jfnd she . "wont for" hiin with a skillet, We are gratified tj ascertain that Judge Boise is positive'y reelected. The contest in his District was very close. His majority is small, but sure. The colored vote saved him. ' Wc hope that Judge Boise will evince less dis position to oppose negro suffrage here after. t Or egonian. - v Judge Boise is our neighbor, and from what we know - of his course on the subject of negro or universal suf frage, we consider it far more consist ent than that of the Oregonian for the last four years : and further, we be lieva that Judge Boise, and not the Or. egonian, reflects the sentiments of three-fourths of the Union Republican narty in Oregon on that subject. We take te liberty to say this much, be- cause of our acquaintance with, aud our high appreciation of the ability, in tegrity, sound judgment and wisdom of Judges Boise. The Oregonian assertijthat the Al bany Democrat says Oregon- is "saved." Precisely so. Saved, we suppose, by tltc election of Fay, the gentleman from Jackson, who was read out of the party a short time since by the Albany Democrat. Put on your shield, Mr. Democrat, and wear it until after. Sep tember next, for we speak advisedly when wc tell you that Mr. Fay, the re pudiator, is on the fight, and will tear down your fortification at the next Leg islature. NE W AD VEll T1SEMENTS.
