PALLAS, SATURDAY, JULY 6. jb i v is j-1 a;j , NOiH I NATI O NS VO 1812. For President, OF ILLINOIS. For Vice-President, HE2NHY -wixsoav OF MASSACHUSETTS.' 'PRESIDENTIAL ELECTORS.,' A. H. Meacnam, of Umatilla County, YV. 1. llaie.-of Washington County jas. F. Galley 'of Douglas County. All aUuiit Mollatlay. Wfl do wish for their own good, and the fieasurc at; least of their readers, that' ouricadiog uewspapers would de vote more of their space to matters in which' the people are directly interested ind oot be quarreling over Ben Ilolk iay. Ooe side iu speaking of hint can not say too much in his favor; a "mu- nificent benefactor, as he has spent niore time and money fbrrtho benefit of Oregon than any other mau in it." 'A man with a bushel of braius, as he has . evidenced by the immense amouut of business which lie is constantly carry ing on; compared to which the Stew arts', the Yauderbilts, the At tors, the Goulds, aud even the llothsehilds dwindle iqto insignificance." " An in comparable philanthropist," devoting his 'immense lortune, and the great in- ' . . tellct which he possesses to tho au- vancemcutof Oregon, with no hope or desire for remuneration. These and other like laudations have filled the columns of sor9 f our principal pa pers, until it has become disgusting to the' public, Ou the , other hand, the opposition arc indulging in equally a3 absurd inuendocs and barrangues He js called a political moutcbauk, an ex tortioner, ah aristocrat, a aan who re. gards nobody's rights but his own : pay iio attention to the feelings, desires, in clinations. but those of lien Holladay. At one 'time he is represented as a monicd king, running the finaucial af fairs bf the State at his own will and pleasure", at another, he is bankrupt, his railroad a failure aud his entire in terests, in the State not Worth a picay une. Now, we ask in all candor, when s this senseless twaddle going to oease ? ' Ben Holladay has done much to tie yefop the resources of the State, xt why has be done it ? Was it exclusively tor philanthropic feelings and a syur jiathy for the people of the State in theif isolated condition ? No one would claim for a moment that such was the fact. He has had the good fortune to obtain "control of the railroad interests of this State, whieh, iu common with all 'others, 'bad to be controlled by some body, and by the assistance of munifi cent grants from tlie General Govern went, aud liberal private aid, is being eaabled-lo complete his enterprises. He VoVkVfor ftis roouey and he reaps his reward. lie Jbas in a few instances shown liberality, as in the donation to the Sisters' School in Portland, for which He should receive due credit. He has also, in some instances, shown an overbearing spirit which should; be dis. countenanced ; his good acts should be acknowledged, opposite actions censured bat the" press of the State might find something more interesting to spend th.eir time and space upon than, to have it all devoted to Ben Holladay. The Pemocratic press of the country are resortiDg to every means in their flower, to ? prejudice the minds of the people against Hon. Henry Wilson, the Republican nominee for the y icc-1'rcsi dency. His private character is unira ,pcachable, his public career is withou jhlot or blemish, o,nd they cannot abuse him for cither. They, are compelled to resort to something other than these for ' their accusations." But as vindictive feelioga can always find some cause for complaint and means of gratifying it, so in the present instance. ., The great cry 1 cow ogainst this great rnanis that he is of obscure, parentage. Taking advan tage of this fact it has been promulgated through the opposition papers that Henry Vikon is the illegitimate son of a ! wandering giptcy. Various names have been giveu him, one runror de clares that liis name is jColbraith, an other, Oolbaithc, another, Eastman; seeming o bo willing to have it any thing but1 the one which reYilly belongs to him. lie has, however, made al name which luckily can withstand all slings of these would'be-annihilators, and which will be untarnished by any thing said by those, who, uuable to raise mortals to the skies, seem disposed to drag those down, who, through dint of their energy, have attained an elevated position. Obscurity of birth in a couutry like ours is no barrier to emi nence, if the person desiring has the ability to attain it. The field is open to all, and as general rule those who work will win. The flings of . calumny when unsubstantiated by facts, fall powerless and the effects generally re act upon the slanderer. School Law Changes. One chance which is very much needed in our school law. is one tp make provision for the support of a school at least six mouths every year. Our pres ent law compels each district to have at least three months school, but makes no provisions for its support, unless a ma jority of tho legal voters shall decide in favor of a tax, or in some other way provide for its maintenance. The dU rectors of .each district should have the power to levy a tax for the support of a six months school without, being com pelled to take a vote on the question. This would obviate all difficulties which are so common among our country dis tricts, and give the directors power to carry out a practice which is very much needed, aud which the majority of the people demand. In Illinois and many other Eastern States, this practice has been kept up for years, the principle being em bodied in the law, and everybody ad mits its efficiency and beneficient re sults. Under our present law the dU rectors have no power to adopt any ef fective, means to, carry on a school, but have to bo subject to the dictation, in many instances, of parties who are un interested in schools matters or are op posed in principle to the common school system. Instances arc common where districts have been thrown out of a school supported as it should be, by taxation, simply through the opposition of one or two infiueutial individuals who were not interested in keeping up a school, and lent their influence against it. An other advantage in a provision of this kind, it would present to the teacher a prospect of more regular and steady employment, and prompt many to fol low teaching as a profession and qualify themselves for it, who now only teach at times when nothing better presents itself, or when they have nothing cl-c to up. To manage a school properly re quires hard study and experience, and inducements should be o fie red to incite persona to adopt this as a prolessiou or we can never expect our common school system to attain that excellence which the very best interests of the public de mand. With a little attention to this matter now, the foundation may be laid for an efficient school system which shall redound to the credit of its originators, and prove of immense benefit to tho state. Greeley Fever in San Fran cisco. At a grand political rally held in San Frnncisco recently, for the pur pose of organizing for the great Gree ley campaign in California, thirty two persons were present.. This shows the tremendous outburst of . indignation which was to overwhelm tho present administration. Thus it is, all over the country. The anti-Grantites would or ganize a terrible opposition, but lack the numbers. Declined. The convention of La hor Reformers, which met at Columbus Ohio, the 22d of February, nominated Jud"C Davis, of Illinois, for the Prest dency. Since the Cincinnati nomina tions, 'Judge Davis resigns bis nomina tion, as he says, "to leave the friends who were generous enough to. affirm their voluntary support , free to obey their convictions ot duty, "unfettered by any supposed obligation." " This may or may not bo an indorsement of the Cincinnati nominees, as his friends may see fit to construe it. . . ' t Tho prospects arc that tho claims for indirect damages wiU be ruled out by 'the. Geneva conference.: Many have j already received a dismissal. Presidential Tickets. ; Tho political arena for 1872, perhaps, presents, a greater variety ol tickets, parties and candidates than has ever been presented to the American people. So far a,s Jheard from, we have the fol-r lowing list to report, with tho several parties by which they have been nomi nated : j Rep uhlica n s. For Presi de n t, U lysses S. Grant, of Illinois; for Vice-President, Henry Wilson, of Massachusetts. Liberal Republican . For President Horace Greeley, of ew York ; for Vice President, B. GraU Brown, of Missouri. Labor Reform. For President, l)a vid Davis, of Illinois ; for Vice-President, Joel Parker, of Now Jersey. ! Tempera nce.-rVor President, James Black, of Pennsylvania ; for Vice Pres ident, John llusscl, of Michigan. Free Love, 7.For President, Vic toria C. Woodhull, of New York; jfor Vico-Presideut, Frederick Douglas, of Washington. Anti" Secret Societies. For Presi dent, Charles Francis Adams, of Massa chusetts ; for Vice-President, Charles F. Howard, ot Illinois. J Candidate's Oath and Pledges. Gen. Thomas A. Davics, of New York, No Vice-President heard from. IJimstlf. Vor President, George Francis Train, of Nebraska; for Vice President nobody needed. This completes tho list so far as heard from. How mauy more iself nominating eaudidates may appear U impossible to even conjecture. jThe Baltimore Convention' will meet next Tuesday to decide whether to put out a Bed-Hock Democratic Ticket endorse the nominations of the Cincinnati Cut), vention, or divide forces with Grant The endorsement of Greeley would uu doubted ly prompt a few Democrats to support Grant. The nomiuatit n j of a straight ticket would rally the eutire force of the Democracy, tut would take no force from either of the other 'uteat parties ; in that case, the various tickets in the Held might take enough frcm the Republican party to throw the elctiou into the House of Representative. In either case, the election ol urant is a oregonc conclu.-ion, and U, we think, so looked upon by the country. Itt building of Chicago. The newspapers chronicle the fact that this city is being rapidly rebuilt and in many instances in a more sub stantial and magnificent style than it was eforo the fire. Chicago, as a city of ruin?, is a thing of the past, and tte tourist who visits that city to see the effects of a terrible conflagration, will be doomed to d appointment. In lieu of chaired ruins and desolated places which 'have been pictured, may be found the handsome dwelling or tho magnificent business etructurc,the ruins and desolation being visible only Jn the memories of those who witnessed it, or in the pictures for sale in th ? galleries- Business runs on in its mrnal channels the hum of machinery, and the rush of the busy throng run on as in Chicago of old, and the time is not far distant when no traces of the great conflagra tion will be visible in any portion; of the city, bo rapidly arc losses repaired in these busy times, that the vacant places of to-day arc the busy ones of to-mor row, and the desert which now lies un improved may next week be the scene of busy life of business and pleasure. The North Pacific. From a late Olympia paper we take the following concerning tba North Pacific railroad. "There is a rumor on our streets that the Secretary of the Interior has writ ten to the directors of the N. P. It. It. Company, informing them that ns soon as they complete their railroad to tho waters of the Sound at any poirtt, that will be regarded as their choice of place for a terminus, and they will be proclu- ded thereby from holding Government lauds beyond such point. Heavy Verdict. The jury in the case of Cobb, Rlaisdell & Co.,1 against the Illinois Central railroad company which has been on trial at independence Iowa, for tho last three months, on Monday last, after being ot$ thirty seven hours, returned a verdict for the plaintiffs, and assessed their damages at $281,000. The caso grew out of a fail ure on the part of the railroad com pany to furnish cars for the transporta tion of grain belonging to .plaintiffs. The same suit, or one involving the same question, was tried at BJooming ton, Illinois, a year or two ago!, and also resulted in a verdjet for the plaintiffs. ' Stale Items.

Harvest has commenced in Southern Oregon. Crops are reported short. A man in Douglas county was fined fifty dollars for whipping his wile. The Oregoniun says the small pox has entirely disappeared from Portlaud. A welcome shower of rain seems to have visited all parts ofthe State last week. The body of the East Portland sui cide, Thos. Chapman, has been recov ered. Thomas C. Young U. S Marshal, has gone to Oakland on official busi ness. A large number of workmen have been drawn off the southern end of the railroad. The estimate cost ot a bridirc to be built across the Yamhill at Lafayette is 81,500. E. S. McCotnas, of Ln Grande, goes as Al Zeiber'a proxy to the .Baltimore Convention. Samuel E. May has been cleared upon the first indictments, upon the second the jury disagreed. Tho MeMinnville Wtst Side denies the report that work has been suspended on the railroad iu Yamhill. The Eugeoe papers state that every precaution has been taken to prevent the xpread of small-pox iu that city. In the Baptist Church in Oregon there are 20 ordained ministers, and 7 licentiates, 'ith 210 communicants. Two men were out hunting in West Chehalem laH week and killed a lare black bear and captured two young tubs The farmers of Yamhill don't want any hay pre.-sra this season.

Belding, who went from Linn county to Minnesota about a year ago, has become disgusted with that country and is on his way back to Oregon with his family. The Courier says "A letter to Mr. Thomas Huston, from Jackson county, states that crop prospects are gloomy in deed in Rogue River Valley. The drought is assigned as the cause." Barnum Lodge I. O. O.
