DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM. .The Democracy of the Statue of Oregon, In council assembled declare: First That we favr the forfeiture of a'J unearned railroad and waon road grants and the opening of the land to settlement and occupancy by those en ti tled to the bencflts of the various laud Uws of the United States. congress of laws made in the interest of tho people, ....... "W . . v. . ' " ... I D - I rejuiitinjt iuter-suto commerce, and also si tie la w. ! cou.ruiuug Mm rcuuiuung iares aim i.eigui ujiyu uii transportation lined, and preventing discrimination in favor of or against j arsons or places. Third That we look with alarm upon the unau thorized assumption of power and jurisdiction of United Stat ci court s in interfering with ofiijers col lecting the revenue of the State of Oregon. Fourth Tliat we are in favor of the mortgage tax law, and believe the principle of taxation enunciated therein It correct, a ad ought to be sustained. Fifth That we favor the passage of such laws in relation to tho assessment and collection of taxes as wlU make the assessment and taxation of property equal and uniform throughout tho State, and demand I the strict enforcement of such laws when enacted. Sixth That the power conferred by the federal I constitution upon congress to enact tariff laws was 'given for the sole and exclusive purpose of deriving revenues for the suppo rt of such government, and that the enacting of any tariff law for any other pur pose, such as taxation of one class of people for the benefit of any other class of people, is as entirely un warranted by the constitution as it is repugnant to Justice aud inimical to the general welfare, and we 'therefore favor a tariff tor revenue, limited to the ni eassities of government economically administered, and a gradual but persistent reduction of the exist 'li.g protective' duties. ' Seventh That the improvement of our coast har bnrs, the Columbia river aud its tributaries, U of Vital importance to the commerce of the whole Stat of Oregon, and we earnestly ask that an adequate ap propriatton h. made hy our present congress to heg.a the work i tha I nlnmiaa. rtvr h:ir imi:riivpnipnt.4 I already too long neeleeted.

' Eighth That (we favor the abolitiau of the prison j coniraci system, ana me prcsciii cooiio traae con ducted on tliis coa-f, as degrading to the wage-work ers of the country. Ninth That for the purpoFe of preventing growing frauds In our elections, and to preserve tae ruits of the ballot-box, we favor the paasac of a registry law. Tenth That we are in fiuor of more efficient me chanics' lien laws. i More Wool It is really amusing to hear Repub lican oracles talk to the honest wool growers. Occasionally they find some weak-minded man upon whom they can partially succeed in making an impres sion. It is urged that the reduction of tariff on wool caused the low prices of last year. The fact is tho United States imported less that year than many in the past and would have imported none if it were not that a special quality were required. But whilst the price cf wool was not satisfactory there' was no per ceptible decline in woolen fabrics Cause: Congress did not see fit to lessen the tariff oa manufactured goods. This is wholly unfair to the producer and consumer and a Democratic Congress should right this wrong. Meanwhile let the people interested in raising sheep emember that it was a Republican Congress that reduced the tariff on wooj and Democrats are not at all respon sible for the same. Doirt let Repub licans pull the wool over your eyes any more. i M.J... .J .Poor Blaine! Since the New York Herald, Henry Ward Beecher and other eminent lead- sense, political frauds and lies and rsot the God and morality party have presidential schemes have' so far occu rred the tomahawk over the head of pied the attention of grave and rever Jim Blaine, it is thus the Post goes for end senators, whilst a nio3fc just ant! him: meritorious measure has beeu consigned "The Post last evening contained a two column reply from William Walter before this same bill has passed a Dem 3?helpa to its arraignment of Blaine, cratic house and twice before has a Re- April first, which hks caused so much cemment, Phelps answers the Post'd charges regarding Blaine's alleged con- 'nection with the Little Rock and Fort Smith railroad, on which other charges war and was fought mainly by Demo hinge. Phelps says: 'The bill was a cratic soldiers is to reach the ulimate just one. Blame s friends had no in- tereet in it when ft ' passed toe house, Eighty days after the house'adjourned reaiember the immense territory se Blaine asked his friends, who had ia cured to our government through the the Meantime taken hold of the enter- prist, and had offered him some inter- est, to let him iu as a partner. They reftiied. They did, however, sell him a block of securities on the same terms they sold them to others. Blaine' letter was written long after the trar.s- action. To give it a semblance of evil you assign the date of it six menths before 'it was actually written.' " The Post, replying to Phelps, cites tho letters, foitifyiDg its original charges', declares Phelps ia unfamiliar with the fact?, and lays the letters show that Blaine had been in pursuit of an interest the year before the bill passed, and that ha did not tell the truth when ho said he bought the bone's at precisely the same rates as others paid. Tho letters, though damaging, fail to establish tho absolute correctness of th Post's inferences and charges. we had hoped there was one good, honest Republican statesman, but alas! hones of that kind arc snm-js and delu- aus, ..... .. j r . -: i '- Republican State Convention- - The loniination for congress f lion. D. Hemmnn by the convention of fed eral officers incumbent and federal oiS- cers hopeful and expectant, was not mnch of a surprise to us, nor indeed did it iithftr shock or alarm us. The J selection is of course somewhat gratify ing to tho pridv of the Republicans iu this section, howevar distasteful it way be ehewhere. PortUnd ".vas coninelleJ to yield then, only to get good, glori ously even on the day of election. If the Republicans of the soft, vihv washy j ilk think they can run rough shod over the stalwart element of that party they are mistaken. If they think they can either cajole or drive them to the polls they overestimate their diplo macy and power and count wilhout their host. There is a dav of vtn geance aoeau aim U19 SIUUUIU, fiuij limit, 1 . I 1 " i.1 1 1 astute - Binder may be the vicarious ex- aiople. Really, ''uneasy lies the head that wears a ere wn." The Democrats of Oregon are satis- fied with John Myers and will stay by him to a man, horse, foot and dragoens. Mr. Hermann will do well if he gets three-fourths of his party vote. Upon the receipt of the news of his nomins- fwn w e LCard a prominent Republican . , . . , , TT leulanl" wiiai, la uo, iib was reared a Democrat and at majority be came a Republican ca use, to get of fice, j After holding offices for a num ber of years got mad and left that par tycause, he had been kicked out of office. Staid mad and abused Dem- ociats and Republicans indiscriminate ly trying to organize a new party cause, wauted to get office. Then he returned to u and beslobbe.ed the pat ty with praise cause, wants to get of fice. He won't do not for this eld R blican Ny.- for Josel,h, if he y 1 ' knows it; m, fiO, no!' " Personally pap,r nQ unffUaJIy ref- mr i idfjetl there are many Republicans who support kirn and his election is quite improbable. Of their nominee for supreme judge we have but little to say. As we hero tofore suid, we regard tho office non partisan and hold it aloef from and above Dolitics. Judrra L. Flinn of Linn is a good old gentleman, quite sensible and practical, but in point of learning, legal abili'y and general fitnes he is not to be compared to Gov.! Thayer. Lawyers of both' par ties willron firm what we say and we look to their influence and the intelli gence of tha people to elect the man best1 qualified for so important and ex alted position and that of course vill be Thayer. J D. L. Watson for prosecuting attor ney of this district was natural enough. It was the result of the bargain and sale spirit which inspired the conven tion. Many Republicans remember the day and the hour when in the ceurt house here he denounced his own par ty cruelly and even beyond reason. No Democrat was ever so savago. He is is a hail fellow, well met, but there are many reasons why he should not te elected. He is a relative of Elon. J. W. If a'mlton, his competitor, and that is much to be said in his favor. Unjust Delay. The bill to pension tho veterans of. the Mexican war still hangs fire in the senate. The pleurb-pneurr.onia meas- ure, southern outrage, Dr. Lasker non- as if to the tomb of the Capuiets. Twice publican senate treated it, with silent contempt. This is simply shameful. Te antagonize the measure because the war with Mexico was a Demecratic mental and moral height of the average i Republican statesman Cannot they j sacrifices of those brave young soldiers, now old and feeble men. Do they not realize the fact that it was through tne wealth obtained from territory thas acquired that it was possible to main- i tain the integrity of "our union) Can it be possible that they are too unwise or too perverse to see these things) It teems to be their policy to pass this bill whea the last old veteran "sbuffies off this mortal coH" and goes down in- to his grave in poverty, "unhonored and unsung. " The Mexican veteran has yet a vote and so also his many friends. They should cast that vote whenever opportunity presented itself, in such manner as to silently but po- tentJy rebuke their eruel and cowardly enemies. 1 -. 1 11111, "...n jn keeping with the instincts of the Republicsm partv, the Fitz John Porter ,..,,, , , , bl3 b? tae Prese,it occupant cf the i White Houfe to le "made to cut a tigure in the National Convention. ' Uan th3 People Control? Sometimes it occurs to us that there is a deep laid scheme in the Republican party to altogether change the fo-ceaud character of our government. It ap- pars that all the leaders no matter how j alone of oneanother uo matter how they differ on miuor questions are as a unit on tho perpetuation of the j Republican party at any cost. ThU is a jrand secret of party success, but one which will inevitably cause the down fall of the government. , The centrali zation of power in the federal govern ment is the one controlling idea of the Republican party. This is not from any reason of justice or right. It is simply to make of the general govern ment a vast machine to keep the Re publican patty in power.- Imagine this great army of federal officers di rected by the untiring industry and shrewdness of a politician like Arthur, backed up by the corporate wealth of the country, and you have but the nu cleus of the Republican party. Can the people cast it off? Can they elect and inaugurate a president opposed to the Republican partyl With but the idea bourn in mind that the federal government and the corporate wealth say uno, the jeople cannot," one oan appreciate the herculean task before the Democracy and the people. It has been the beast of the Repub lican party that ( they keep in power through the blunders of the Democracy From this they admit that the people are heartily tirtd of them. The found ation of all these "blunders" is untiring zeal for the interests of the people, With the office-holders, the aristocracy of the new world, and the unlimited corporate wealth arrayed under the banner of Republicanism; who have the Democracy to aak for aid but the people? Let he people, once for alj make a change in this government next November, to vindicate their rights and to prove te the world that they appre ciate the maxim: "Eternal vigilance is the price cf liberty!" A Warning. Theology teaches us that sins are of emission or commission and so law de fines crimes. Both as a Christian and observer of law we are constrained to characterize the action cf the late Re publican convention held in this city as willfully sinful and maliciously crim inal. Hon. Mr. Otev of Wilbur, al though a Republican, has some of tho instincts of a putiiot and would have omitted to perform his duty had he failtd to introduce to the convention the following, which wo reproduce for the careful perusal of our readers: Whereas, The bunion imposed upon our agricultural population by the rail road corporation, in the matter of high freights and fares, is grievous to be borne and the only avenue ot redress is through our local legislature, there fore bo it Resolved, By the convention assem bled, that our senators and representa tives from this county, be and they are hereby instructed to use all honorable means to aid in passing such laws as will remedy the evil and ueh as are just to the corporation and satisfactory to the producing class. The Republican convention commit, tad a wrong when it deliberately tabled this most wise and just suggestion. For one thing, however, they are enti tled to credit and that is in doiu this wrong act they did it openly and above boird. In this regard there was a marked departure from their usual pol icy. Heretofore the secret of their success has been in their deceit, cun ning and artifice. Whenever it was thought necessary to make god prom ises they made them only to break them, and, Judas like, they would ba tray the people with a kiss. Why this gi eat .change we cannot divine. We conjecture that the Re publican party of Douglas county feels over confident of success believing that the people were more than ever gullable and ignorant, or they have concluded that defeat is inevitable and that it might be well in the dying mo ments to purge the soul and tell tho truth for once. But" no matter as to .heir motives, the ugly fact remains that they do not want our senators and representatives to use houorable means to aid in passing such laws as will reg ulate freights and fares and relieve the people from intolerable burdens. It may be possible that corporations C2n purchase enough votes to secure the continued ruccess of such a party, but we cannot realize such 'a deploiab'e state of affairs. The people, and more especially the agricultural class, aie disposed to be honest and they cannot concent te be false to themselves and unfair to others. We do not defcpai of the mass of intelligent voters. This situation, we can. observe, has long been anticipated. For years and years the dominant or governmental power has fostered, cherished and nourished monopolies and corporations until we find that we aro no longer a govern ment of the people, by the people anJ for the people, bat, on the contrary our political system is a mere machli run by rogiiQ3 and controlled by the aggressive and doraineg ring power of ill-gotten wealth. Only a few days ago Hon. M. 0. George vehemently protested against the forfeiture of un earned rail road;, land grants. He was true to his masters and licks the til ken band of cernofation authority. This condition of things, we repeat, is abso- fc utely deplorable and we sympathise with the people in their distress The remedy is solely with them.- There is not a right without a remedy and the voteis can redress the present griev ances at the polls next J une. But do not hesitate too long, for truly delay is dangerous. It is our duty to advise with the -r- i , l 1 1 i masses. We nope to o auie 10 proe everything we say to them through our paper. Cussondra had the power of prouhecy, but coupled with it was the decree that none were to believe her. With us we trust it will be different. We do not deceive the people when we warn thorn uo longer to trust the Re publican party. Already it has had power enough and te retain and to in crease it woulJ be unwise, unpatriotic and even suicjdal. Citizens, be thought ful, be vigilant and prudent, be on yoar guard and soon the sunbeams of prosperity will burst through clouds of adversity now around and abuyo you.
