During the discussion of the resoles tions, Case, of Buenavista, in an able speech denounced the back pr;y steal, salary-grab, Grant od all, this de sunciation was backed up by arguments unswerable, by Lafolletfe and others, but before it proceeded tar, the hot blood of the opposition jraa aroused, and the ticeserver, aod emporizing portion of the convention came to their feet, Smith, of Uuenavista, leading the van, declared that (Jrant was not in fault for signing the big steal bill, for the reason that he as President of the jJnited States, had no power to veto any act oi Congress, no matter now eorrapt it might be, unless ho could put it on grounds purely unconstitutional, and this measure being within the constitutional copo of Congressional power, could not le vetoed. Tljis argument was attempted i bo braced up by the bflance of the re id and butter brigade, by logic which would nauseate the mind of a man of integrity and sense, and finally in order to demonstrate to the i-orld in general, and Oregon in .particular that, the convention was in a "perturbed' state, some honest member ' offered a resolution condemning the unlawful and disgraceful acts of our late Senator M ilch elljCommitted by reason of 'youthtul indiscretion," anl it was tabled instant' er. A resolution was offered declaring that, the man who would wilfully practice bigamy in Oregon, was fit only be a mormon, arid was also tabled with a vim. The convention finally and adjourned still 'perturbed." We mppohe the whole proceedings of thin convention is what miht bo called, V It- political neutralizing. DUE TIIR EN LET US IMtAV. Thero has been a great deal said about the costs to tho county of the , " Whitley cases" and wo doubt not but what certain bucholio individuals hnvo derived great satisfaction from ventur ing their vjrteous (!) specn in regard to the tnatter, bu does anyone raise the cry of economy when a few ouo horse speculators and polititions gctto gather and"wool gather" our County Court and work through an appropiation of 3800, that will only benefit at the very best about fifty men in tho county? The men that were chiefly instrumental in getting the appropriation out of the tax payers pockety, do not pay 10 cts. in taxes in ten years. ' ' Farmers look into this young "Tarn many Tiny," and seo to it, that such men hereafter addorn their Home firesides, as we havo enough lejtka to lool after without being directly robbfl. i is a bad precedent to establish, this thing ot appropriating the public men. ey for the' benefit of half a dozen.

The- resolution is very rld m its- tone- and contains no more- th3n any delegation of honest, high- minded, mdependcofc men ought to have said, m every Connty Conven tio in- the State, and it should have bsen said at the earliest possible moment for the honor of the State, and yet because one county in the State by its representatives ia convention assembled dared to proclaim the simple truth, the tigey gets mad, ho gnashah his teeth, he laabeth bis tail, and then, as though unsatisfied, he growls out the following threatening warciug to his former worshipers : Mr. Mitchell's faults and follies (to call them by no harsher name) are things of tho past. Malice and fatae hood have exhausted themselves in magnifying and misrepresenting them, and adding fabricated particulars to' the known facts. In spite ol all defutners, he can nnd will sustain himself ia the Senate. And mark the prediction : ll a fight is made against him he will b sustained by the Republican party of Oregon through its State Convention, the highest authority of the pnrty in the State. This must grind hard upon the good sense of many honest Republicans, but you must take it gentleman, or with ns repudiate these corrupt scoundrels who have fully ptvsesed themselves of your organization. What a princely stvle these ringiU's exhibi t in governing their dupes, the method is this: when the majority of its members begin to show signs of dissatisfaction, and talk of new orani zations, they are at once directed by their masters, to remain and correct the evils of which they complain inside tho party, not out of it, and when a would be, obedient people undertake to' .1 4 . carry out tnc suggestions oi tries': devils, and begin to denounce their lecpption and corruption, they are immcJintely threatened, if tkey preset in that thiug, the open high handed lawlessness of which they complain shall be publicly sustaiucd ami main tained in the next State Convention. If Republicans will yield to this clamor of tho ring in the above extract, in the name of god, humanity, and ct mmou dooency, lay no further claim to political honesty and independcuc, but remain at yot;r wonted wallowing in the mire, and be content with licking, as ever, your masters focf.

If there is any one person responsible above all others for that measure, let those preachers of . J righteousness shout aloud and paro not, Thou art tho man Mr i'resideut." If some one must be thrown to the pack, let Presi dent Grant be chosrn as the victim. It is his right. He has earned the honor of matrydom, He got the chief bone fit of the bill, and he a'oue could have defeated it, and he therefore is its beat representative. It was a Republican measure, pissed by Republican votes, and approven by a Republican Presi dent. The iurty, as such, is as much responsible for it as for any act they may claim the credit ot parsing since Lincoln was elected. Face the music, gentlemen ! Only if you arc too cowardly to do so don't imagine that, you cau swim Grant and ttink Rutler. They are in the same boat and so is the Republican party. That's rather spicy, but the trtuh is, none but a knave or a fool would at- tempt to deny it.
