KELLY & WELLS. WILL SCON BE SHOWN. The work now being accomplished Id a political sense will be shown op in a short time. Everywhere we hear : of no friendship being shown by one i wing of the Democratic party for the other, and it is certain but few efforts ! are being made by the leaders of ' either wing for a compromise which -will have the effect to heal up the ! breach and send the party into the Held united. There must come up a I third element, and there uoust be a third "wiug" in the party.. organiza ; tion, and the third party must come In as a compromise. We do not mean that the Democrats will be compelled to go outside of its ranks to find this i compromise, or that it shall, to effect i a compromise, take up others than ; Democrats ; but we mean that to take ; either Thayer or any one else outside of those who constitute the honest el- i eratct or. we party will be to Kick up a . row that- must eventually end r la the party going into the contest di- ' vided. Thayer will demand an In ; dorsement of bis administration and , a chance of election U the United ; States Senate, and there are Democrats ( who do not like Thayer and yet will ! . grant this much for the sake of harmo- i ny ; and; there are other members of i the ; party who will strongly oppose packing upon the shoulders of the par- i tyintne race Thayer and bis failings - : and who will admit of no comoro- mise unless it la distinctly understood ; that the Governor and his acts shall i not -be defended by the party, or an I Indorsement given to either. Whether ; those who have the party's welfare at i heart will succeed in securing control, i and whether after success has crown- , ed their efforts the Thayer wing will Sjiot bolt the party will be known only i lifter the conventions have met and I ' tlie-policy of the party announced. !. Without- doubt. Thayer has been ! very Independent of his party during ! . his term of office, and there is no !! doubt bis independence began before : his election. He has despised or treated with contempt all suggestions made I ' by bis party's members. Soon it will be seen whether through the power he ; has enjoyed in the Governor's office, I he has beon able to control the ' party, or the party will control him In i the end not only by repudiating the j responsibility of. his administration, I J-iy also ln compelling him to after wards support the party which made him what he is. i But the Democrats are not the only ones planning and working for the fu ture, Republicans are just as busy They are laying their plans aa assidu ously. Even Thayer's partner would like to repeat his trip to Washington as a congressmen, and he would not i object, to being elected Senator of having his partner elected. To a more or less extent the very faction that fought the return of Mitchell to the United States Senate, is now working for official preferment. Per haps some will excuse the members thereof with this regard on the grounds that having been a long time away from the public and official table they have become quite hungry. This is only the excuse of every office-seeker. They may win in the conventions, and they may not. The danger to the Re publican party is that they may all turn traitors as tbey did before and find a iwouthpiece In the Oregon ian. J he danger, however, is lessened by the failure of last year of the faction to send Corbett or a O rbett man to the Senate, and in electing members to the State Senate they will not sac riflce the party so'ely to gratify per sonal nullce as before for the simple reason revenge secured in this way would be a too eostly article They may be so . crazy, however, and in their madness prefer general ruin to particular success of the opposition inside the party, thus placiug the party on an equal footing under any circumstances with the Democaracy. Time will also show what will be the , result in this matter. The location of the harbor of refuge on the coast is yet unsettled. It is about time a decision was made. Con gress will soon meet, and a delay in the selection of the desirable point of location should not be continued so tbat the matter will not receive se rious consideration at Washington at an early date. So far s ape Arago is concerned, Nature made it a natur al harbor of refuge, and it is used as such half the year. Under these cir - cu instances we cannot see why Cape AragA will not be selected, and why, when the whole country Is anxious for a decision, and anxious to build a railroad to the bay, that the decision is delayed. - - : ! The Jacksonville Sentinel is author ized to say that Mr. Jay Beach, f Iiinkvllle, will trot Almonta against Stevenson's Sir Walter for $500 or $1,000, race to be mile heats, best three In fivrf, over ths Yreka track, or By bee's track at Jacksonville. Race to be run any time between now and Christmas, under the rules of the Na tional Trotting Association; $250 or $C00 forfeit to bo put up within the next 20 days. WHAT HAVE TKEj DONE. Let us see what Independents have done for themsei7ta in Douglas county- Prior to the beginhitig of Inde pendent rule there certainly was a large county indebtedness. That coun ty Indebtedness has no longer the frightful proportions It evinced prior to the first Independent j success In Douglas. In fact there is nothing now of. the county debt. Tl4 first Inde pendent doso was that of a skillful doctor, so far aa the health of the pa tient was concerned. The disease was a mixed one ono embracing a mix ture of dishonest Republicans and dis honest Democrats, and the Indepen dent doctor prescribed a jmixture of bonest Republicans and honest Demo crats as an antidote. ; . In this case it has been proven that the remedy was better than the disease -inj fact, cured the disease to that extent that it drove It entirely from the body politic, and made in opposition a champion so healthy that since then the disease has been afraid. to put lnja bold ap pearance- In other words,; the county indebtedness created through conniv ance of the ring, and divided in the wsy of profits pocketed by both seem ing Democrats and Republicans through Independent and mixed man agement has dwindled'to nothing; in terest-paying warrants are not to be found or are . very few, and to-day county warrants are worth their face- To be Independent theB, .the people people have wiped out a. large county Indebtedness. They have the satis faction of knowing that none but bon est men have held office. They know that this year they pay but 21 mills on the dollar in the shape of taxation ; and they have the nope, based upon an almost absolute certainty, that their taxes next year will hot go above 17 mills. - :."!-.: '-.-I An as Independent expresses It, there Is no doubt but thai Indepetid enlism pays. -., EDITORIAL DEADHEADING, j L. "Old Hill," of the Salinfts CCal.) In dex, gets off the following in regard to editorial deadheading; "One o the beauties and charms of an editor' life is his deadheading tt on all ocea sions. No one who has ever tasted of the sweets of that bliss can begin to take in its klory and its; happiness He does $100 for a railroad; an( gets 'pass ' for a year, and rides $25 worth. and then he is looked upon as a dead- bead, or a half-blown 'dead-beat.' He puffs' a theatre or a concert troup $10 worth and gels $1 iu 'cotnplimen taries.' If the hall is crowded he is begrudged the room he occupies for if the complimentaries were paying tickets the troupe would be so much la pocket. He blows and puffs church free to any desired extent, and does the poster printing at half-rate?, and rarely gets a 4 thank yon ' for it It goes in as a part of .his duty as an editor. He does more wiirk gratuit ously for the town and community than all the rest of the population, and geUcuised for it all ; but a man who donates a dollar for the Fourth of July, base ball club or church, is gratefully rememberd. Ob, it Is a sweet thing to be an editor. lie passes, 'free, you know.'' The question now is with politicians, "Who will the Independents' support in the next contest for county offi cers?" Well, our answer is : the best man ; and before the timej comes the best man's name will not be made public for the reason it will not be known. The Independents do not set up primaries, Btock conventions or lay plans for any man's advancement. They, however, have the sense belong ing to thinking men, and their pur pose is, under all circumstances, to show a determined opposition to all dishonest and incapable office-seekers. And having the balance of; power, the independents will carry any election they desire to. ; Another ca.-e of accidental shooting is reported by an exchange. The ac cident occurred last Friday A young man named Fisher, working for An drew Millard, a well-known resident of Cowlitz county, amused himself on the afternoon named by snapping caps on a shotgun, supposed to bit empty, at Mrs. Millard and Miss Burt, a visitor, and frightened them. The ladies beg ged him to desist, but Fisher said he would snap one more and -quit. The cap exploded the charge, 'which en tered the heart of Mrs. Millard, killing her instantly. . , j The defeat of Robinson; in New York is now considered in the East as having settled Tllden's chances for the Democratic nomination fori the presi dency of 1880, and Democratic journals are satisfied that Bayard, of Deleware, is the coming man. If Bayard is nOm inated for president, Hendricks will hardly have an opportunity to decline a second pTace,.on the; ticket more than once. Bayard is the strongest man the Democrats have, and '.there will be found plenty of men who will gladly join Bayard in the race. The editor of the Chicago Inter- Ocean is very careless in his remarks. For Instance, amiably refers to the editor of the Times, of that city, as the hoary-beaded old Reprobate, whose life has been a war On purity and patriotism." The editors of the Standard and Oregonian, in their dis cussions, have never improved upon this, and they should at Once sub- sbscribe for the Inter-Ocean that they may more effectively blackguard each other. j The New York Herald, a Sort of ad viser general to the whole American people, and a good share of the world besides, takes its pen in hand to say it "will go so far as to assure him that it does not believe tbat 'any third term Republicans wants or exnecta General Grant to assume Khe Style and title of Emperor or United States." iriL i.tpg Of tlie The business outlook over the coun try continues satisfactory and most promising. In nearly every New England manufacturing town the mills have been put in operation, and are working full fores on full time. Employers and employes arei prosper ing, and all are satisfied with the sit nation. ; . ;: j v Our exchanges announce the Indict ment of John A. Carr for attempting to bribe a member of the Portland city council. Carr is not a man who would allow himself to be caught In a manner very easy, and it will be a matter of surprise to us if his convio- vlction follows his indietment The warehouse of Gaston Ferral, Albany, was destroyed by fire on the 12th Inst. The total loss footed np to $36,000, and the fire was the most destructive ever known In the place. WHEN YOU WILL DIE. It Is not every oae who asks himself the question s ? how long have 1 to live," because, strangely enough, it is the belief of most persona that their lives will bo exceptionally lengthy: however, life assuarance companies are aware of the credulous weakness of those whose lives they assure, and have, therefor,: compiled numerous tables of expectancy of life for their own guidance, which are carefully referred to before a policy is granted. The following is one of those well authenticated tables In use among as surance companies, showing the aver age length of life at various ages of persons of average health, and in the second column we are enabled to peep, as It were, behind the scenes of an as surance office and gather from their table the number of years they will give us to live. This table has been the result of careful calculation, ana seldom proves misleading. Of course sudden and premature deaths, says the K Y. Mercury, as well as lives nnnauallv extended, occasionally oc cur; but this is a tame oi ine average expectancy of life of an ordinary man or vtomsn; Aire, Years to live. Ago. 50.;. 60 . 70... 80 .

SOUTHERN OREGON MINES. Reports received from all part9 of Southern Oreeon are favorable to a prosperous mining season. From every point we hear that heavy smr storms have visited the mountains surrounding the different camps ; and that they came just in the nick o' time," when the earth was charged with water from heavy rains. Snow of itself, without the earth has been btfore thoroughly watered, amounts to but little; but snow following a heavy rainstorm and several nights of heavy frosts insures about three times asurface flow of water and is three timi s longer in duration. There have been heavy rain storms in the mountains, iheavy snow storms, every flake from which has only made the white cover ing deeper and more solid. It is the opinion of the miners that the season's run beginlng earlier than usual will extend three months beyond the time occupied in making the last year's runs, and that the yield of the precious metal for 1SS0 will exceed that of any year dating back a period of eight years. The dead body of James McKillup was found on the 8th inst. on the farm of Mr. E. F. La to son, near Wil liamina, in Yamhill county, partially buried beneath a huge pile of rails, and horribly crushed and mangl ed. He had been missing since about the 20th of October. In driving down a hillside with a heavy load of rails, his wagon was upset and he being caught beneath it and its heavy load is supposed to have been instantly killed. The wagon still lemained, and attached to it was one ot the horses, the other having escaped. The official count has given the New York election to the Republicans. They have elected every one of their candidates for State officers with the exception of the candidate for State Enquirer, and have a large majnrity in both branches of the Legislature. -A woman who was called as a wit ness in an assault case tried in the Edinburgh police court recently, on being asked by the magistrate what was the profession of her husband an swered promptly: "My husband Is a bankrupt, sir." Rev. Wm. McKay.- after reading several notices from his pulpit in the Methodist church at Genoa, Ind said there was another matter to which he desired to inform his con Kregation. His wife had eloped with Mr. Hat ton a neighbor. n 1 ' A white man in Maryland shot at a negro with murderous intent, but in stead of killing him killed his grand child. The republican papers declared this to be another democratic outrage until the discovery was made that the white man was a republican. s During the past six months the Chinese have emigrated into the Sand' wich Island in such large numbers as to create considerable alarm in the little kingdom. Nearly 2,500 of the Celestials have landed at Honolulu in the above period. Senator Grover has announced to the Albany Democrat that he will retire to private life at the expiration of his senatorial term of office. We have beard before the story " why jack lost his supper."
