Jones, Master. J. P Ddkcar, Heiretary. TRUTH HURTS THE "TIMES." We hope the Jacksonville Timet editor b satisfied ainee he haa eallad aa a "hireling.' We don't blame him for aping the Great Horace Greely; we blame faint for in copy' lag be haa borrowed the old bero'a blasphe my and used but little if any of his style of argument : Tbe reason for the enlargement of Nicke 1 (or Manna's) eil en ia we published two weeka ago an outline of the plan laid by JJemocratio pol.tioisns to eontro the norai nat una for.Suprerae and Jndioial judgeships in the State and the first and Second diatriuta. It ia useless for u to indulge in the lan guage of the London or New York nVher- woman, or of the graduate of Five Points in answer to tbe billingsgate of one wbo must lave atndied much of tbe jargon of Fsgin, -the Jew a, pupils. ; : We have not stated that the timet haa been bought bj British gold," and "That'a what's the matter with Hanna." Tbe tenth ia, tba Itmet haa iU axs to grind, and thongh we have never uttered anything to tbia effect before, we wouldn't he surprisid to learn some day-and not "very late in the far distant future," that two Jndgrs are now tuning tbe grindstone. Considering tbe faoia in the ease up fur argument fairly, it seems to ua that it would be difficult for the limn or any one else to prove that this ia Bill Willis' or Sol. Abra ham's organ. There exists not scratch of the- pea to show this to be true, and aa to vie i unet and nin, we would like to know something on this point. No attempt to inquire into your private business, Char ley, but just to show your interest and what 'you may realise on Prim's election (possibly) to toe poHiuun be now oooupina. If it ia true that Prim ia trying to bulldoze his party into not only giving him the aom. inatiua bat also in providing for Lis friends, - Tfaomi sua and Uanna, we cannot see where, aa an ladependti.t journalist, wr could do wrong by announcing the fact This ia what T a . " . .... Auuepenaenta require ol uus newspaper. And supposing, friend Nickel 1, that it should not be true, after the conventions .have made the nominations, that Prim, Hanna and Thompson had not secured nom inations, would any remark we have made hurt themt A newer this question, Charley. And then let naclav the Tanks a litiUfi,. er with Ton. If Prim. Hanna and Thnmn- eon are . not seeking the nominations in .question, are not laying plana to force such nominations, why ia it the Timet, Judge Prim's acknowledged organ ia so ready and shows itaelf so apt to deny any and every and alt, reports, atatementa and the truth coneerning the popularity of theej men? Both yon and the tstar do not forget, however, to claim treat poqularity for the Judge, and even when denying that he is a cam I id te. ia the sa-e breath you sp.ak of him as "the most popular gentleman ia 8outhern Oregon! We might say that Mrs. Dunniway differs with the Times and Star but good people do not agree with either, aince oa one aide them was intermeddling and on the other bad eggs and rowdyism. We do not belong to Mrs. Dunniway 'a aide of the question, we speak only of Judge Prim's and the Timet' publio arts, and with out iateraieddliug without slander with out doing more than belongs to the provim of a free and outspoken journal, we enter our protest against the nomination by ANT convention of ANT man for a judicial office who will dirty his hands pulling wires 1 1 set up political primaries and stock county conventions. If this is what tlw Times ob jects to let ua here write it we ore not whether our. ideas of honor and right suit the Timet, the Star or the Llade, but we persist ia the statement that the wire-worker 4a not fit for the Judgeship or any other of fice, and it matters not ii such hare succeeded heretofore, do auoceed next time and then win the time after, their success will not prove that right has triumphed or that the worth of a principle has been vindicated; the result will be shown, only that there ia a bliud partizanism upon the part of some people, and that to be right ia not always to .succeed. . . These are the thoughts of "an obscore .owaiper,"it is true; but aa "obscure news paper" may tell tbe truth. New-papers sometimes live' and become notorious by the faculty they have of Windinif those wbo help them, and though they Income othe wiae than obscure they are sook.u of as the Irishman spoke of the lawyer suit the shark. But in the matter, we are williug to allow time to prove the truthfulnce of our prophecy, and we make it tbia way: Hanna and Prim will both receive nominations on the Demo cratic tickdt for Judge and Supreme J edge in the order we have stated them, and Thompson will bulldoze this district if he au. We have but a abort time to wait for a deuixiun in the matter, Mr. Timet. Let us sea what the sunvro'icns will bring forth, sua wh:ber after the result is known, yon hare the fairness to aokuowledve it. 3. 3. Whitney, Esq. has annonneed bis intention to institute suit sgainst Gen. ttsrt. V.

East Fork or North Fohk Coqciu.k, , August l, 187S. Ed. IsMtrRNWUfT: Aa job have fre quently extended to tne the aae of jour ool. nrnae. and kindly intimated few items would not be unkindly received, I a all deavor from this time (mi-ouoasiooally), aa time and matters of interest occur, to give them publicity through the medium of your exoetlewt pap r. We farmers, the bone and sinew of the land, are in the midst of our haying, and are happy at the prospect of Urge crops and splendid weather to care and house the same. Our haying and harvest here ia somewhat later than ia Douglas, bat we can boast of heavier crops. Wheat, oata and barley look splendid, and wi'h a few weeka of the present aumhiny weather "ye horny handed of toil" need not longer oomplain ot herd tiaes. This settlement has barn abundantly sop plied with game, consisting of ,1k, deer and hear by a few of our most successful hunters. Those most successful are Harve Minard. Ttylor Weekly, John Bturdevant, John Miller and Cnn-ket Krauts, and you can just bet your bottom dollar whenever either of these hunt freh meat is in abundraoe. wish I could send you tiiua piece of elk, don'l you? JKrutl Ed. The health of this community ia good; ia fact this is, in my opiniou, the healthiest portion ot Oregon. It is amusing to settlers here to listen to the murmurs, and sometimes expressions strongly ravoring of curses lung and loud which eminate from tourists visiting t hi sec tion in search oi good roads, presume. I am sorry to say, thiy don't find them, not murh. If there ia one thing more than another in which wa pride ourselves it i in having the worst roads to be found any where. I think if my individual assertion is not readily taken I could refer all to (sheriff Hugan, who, if I am not mistaken, found some few rough and muddy spots in his late pleasntn trip from Dora to Myrtle Point! What say you Hogaut To show we are not entirely beyond th e pale of tbe chuich we will state we have spiritual eonsolation administered in moder ate doses twice per month at the East Fork school house. The Donkards or triune Bap tist are the most numerous, I believe. We ot the ungodly also have an icasional un holy gathering for the purpose of tripping the light fantastic, I believe they call it. At a danoe up the North Fork a few evenings since, some of the boys oun-duded beer would help, or in Some manner conduce o, promote a festive feeling upon the oucaaion , and in consequence there were two kega of MeU's best duly on hand. One of the receptacles containing the liquid whi ch cheers but does not intoxicate, was drained, and everybody and everything was as mer ry as a marriage tell, so called; but upon a call being made for more beer it became necessary to tap the remaining keg and upon an examination, separate and apart &c, the spigot could iot be found a search was in stituted, the musicians being the first to respond thereto, and from that time until daylight no beer, no musio, no dancing and everybody felt they would aa soon live aa die. Daylight brought to light the missing link spiggot some distance from the house and then in the language of the poet "On with the dance let joy," etc. But enough of this, I will close, fearing to weary you with mv nonsense and in my next x may produce snmetctnir more readable.
