1 THE INDEPENDEiN j . HATUliDAY, NOV. 221, 184. The Salvutron Army Laving become a muHiince in England, the aiilhoiitit's are enJeuVorinp; to alnite llieni. PETITIONS are being extensively en" , culated to have a new county fora.ed .nu of a part of Wasco, Umatilla and Grant counties. The Democrats have the Iliihois legislature on joint ballot by one ma jority. This legislature- will choose a successor to General Logan to represent Illi.iois in the United States Senate.; The Oakland social club will give a grand Thanksgiving I'all at Brown's Hall in Oakland on the evening of November 27 th. A pleasant time is anticipated by the voting folks of that vicinity. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. H. Yander MLT will give a reception at their resi dence on Fifth Avenue the first week in December, for wLicii, it issaid, 1,000 cards of invitation will be issued. Alii 1 lons for display, but not one cent for chai ity. TIE editor of the Chicago Neivs Letter has fallen heir to 'I'OjOOO an nual rental in England. This is equiv alent to $100,000 income per year, and the poor Faber pusher can strut with exceeding pride over the graves of his rich ancestors. The Democratic party propose to and will protect the laboring men and wo men of America by making it unlaw ful for the moneved kings of ,this country to import pauper labor und r servile contracts. This is the kind of protection the country needs. The Election of Cleveland and Hen dricks is a verdict of the American people in favor of tariff reform. Will the Republican Senate daro to defeat the will of the American people thus emphatically pronounced at the ballot box on this important question. The Commercial traveler has suc ceeded the coachman as the hero of elopements. The latest case occurred in Rochester, N. Y:, rliere an heiress fled from her homo with a dashing drummer, who has already disposed of one weman by way of tha divorce court?. It shows the shrewdness of the drummer that he took a gnl w ho had a fortune in her own right. He will thus be troubled by none of the woes which befell the German coach man who can ied off Morosini's daugh ter. A CASE which shows the hardships of the "law is that of John Ainsworth, who arrived in San Francisco not long ince. He did business in Alaska and disputed a bill presented by the Alaska Fur-Seal Company. When the col. lectors of tha company called for the coin he bulldozed them with a i" pistol. He was ordered to be taken from Oon alaska to Sitka for trial and was finally taken to San Francisco, lie claims thai he was never foimally tried. In the effort of tha company to punish Ainsworth, they will give him a chance to see a good deal of the scenery of the coast. Coxklixo's friends hope by the aid of the Democrats to retain hun to the United States Senate. The Mitchell Republicans of Oregon are figuring for a like result for thtir favorite leader. May the good Lord deliver us from such a, coalition. AVe condemned the action of Demociatic members support ing the prince of Republicanism in the past, and will do so in the future. ! The principals of Democracy are too pure to le contaminated by such a by bred political monstrosity as Mitchell has shown himself to be. Jf th Republi can par'.y desire to return Hippie Mitchell to the United States Senate, all well and good, but never let it be said of the Democracy of Oregon, you did it. Walkeu Blaine is continually giv ing his papa away. When down to Washington the other day looking" out for a house for the old gent to live in, be stated that his father knew of his defeat the morning after the election, and resumed work on his history. It is possible that in reviewing the success of the steal of 187G in his "Twenty years in Congress" that it suggested to him the dispatch which he rent that day to the National Republican Corr--irittee lo "claim everything until a new plan can bo formulated." iThe "World, Times, Herald and Evening Post charged that Blaine and the Na tional Republican Committee afterward conspired to claim New York state and are daily repeating the churge that the Tribuno was a party to the fraud,! and that its so called forgery of returns places it at the mercy of the Grand Jurv. The Tribune maintains silence oa th question. KELEiiD LEGISLATION. Since the election is over would it not be well for us to turn our attention lo needed reformation in our state laws. The time for Uie legislature to meet is fast ; approaching. Their are some rave defects. in our Statu organization that need reforming. There are matters 0f -leater concern to us as a state tli'aii the fighting for personal pi i feiei.ee for i United S;ates Senator. The las; term of legislature was occuph d aluios1 exclusively over a sijuabble to eltcl Hippie Mitchell, a peisou who can s .-aicely claim citizenship in this state it is bandy possible that the titn-j thus occupied prevented much vicious legis lation; there were many jobs before the legislature that failed lo pass. Certain it is that some needed leforms were de feated for want of t L :n 3. Certain it is that a Federal Court has decided a much needed and necessary law ( The Mortgage Tax Law) unconstitutional on a mere technical quibble which could have been obviated by a little care. And this county lost its taxes on the foreign mortgages recorded in this county by reason of this decision and the lack of backbone in our tax collec tor. Altho tgh the supreme court of the state has held the law valid, it needs some action on the part o: the legislature to enable the counties out i side; of Portland to collect the taxes r due o them on the.se forei 'ii mortga. ges.' A mortgage is an interest in th- land it covers and the State, of right, has and ought to have jurisdiction fur the purpose of taxation. The same projection and the same riviledges are extended to the foreign capitalist who has his money invested in our State that is accorded to the resident citizen and there is no reason whv they should not bo compelled to pay their just proportion towards support ing the State gnverment. hat say the farmers to this. Our members of the legislature should well beware of the Portland sharpers they will defeat legislation on this question if they can do so. It is the money sharks who are to be dreaded thev will exeinnt their capital from taxation if they can do so. These money chargers will bear watch- mg. We need a Savior to give them a second scourging. TIME FOR AH EKD OF IT. The Oregonian of last Saturday savs "Immediately i.ftcr the election tlie Oregonian saw that Cleveland hud a plurality in New " ork, and readers will bear in mind that it has had no faiih in assertions to the ctntraiy. Newspapers desire to publish fact-; thev ue great diligence and expend much money in getting at f.icts; and when the Sun, Herald and other jour nals found that Cleveland had a plural ity in New York, and agreed substan tially as to the amount of the -plurality there was no reason to doubt. There has been no sense in the action of the Republican Committee. All this time it lias onlv been monkeving and mak ing faces. Two davs after the election 't was sufficiently clear that Blaine was beaten. As soon as this wax apj.are.it, the Oregonian stated plainly that, though it desired another result, ii saw no reason to doubt, that the election had go:ie against Blaine; nor could it lind anything to support the claim of the Republican Committee to the con trary. No newspaper worth the name is willing to make a fool of lb-elf bv trying to maintain a claim in opposition to facts. It was nothing Jess than in sanity to nominate Blaine; it has been nothing less than idiocy to -vlaim his election after his defeat. Let us have some judgment in the management of the. Republican party hereafter, keeji down tile uproarous bumpkins who want "brilliant" and "magnetic" candi dates and who cry out against eveiy man of solid reputation and substan tial; character as an "old fvg ' "or an iceberg," and see if the exercise of good sense will not once nioro biiug the Republican party to the front as an instrument of good government. Let us hope that there have now been "lire works" enough to satisy "enthusiastic masses" of the party. Now let us have, as formerly, a course of action that will satisfy the sober judgment of the coun try, j No mor glitter and tinsel, no i more mirage, no more magnetism, no more electrical phenomena, but a policy suited to the people. In this policy heretofore, the Republican paity has been invincible In its recurn to it iies its only hope of future success. The! first thing for it to do is to give up idle hopes of an election w hich it foolibhly threw away in its nomina tions, get down out of the picture J clouds of a vain imagination, and plant itself on the solid ground of truth and common sense. The Blaine episode is over. It was a spree which the roust abouts of the Republican party were determined to have. Hid they hurt themseires only, small would be the regret." t We have in this comunity certain in dividuals who keep up monkeying antj making faces and are unwilling to ad mit the truth of the election. They allow their party prejudice to blind , their mental vision and really make themselves look ridiculous in the eys of all sensible people. In their blind bigotry they seem to lose sight of the last tvvmty years and want to tight the battles of the w ir all ove" again. True this is not a verv numerous 'class in our community and is chiefly co itined to verdant youths who ..'ere in their swad- u;ui:i cue iu s w r I'lilif .'In' II II VV !!! tllO ttllllllll ill tllf" last 'im tiled rtway on the plains of Appomatax, or old gray headed sinneis whom thousands of iniins from the scene of action afforded them perfect security ftoir. affright from the rebel yell they are no-.v want to talk about. These poor fellows are truely to be pittied. If they will only reflect upon die fact lint these lion hi Democrats are citizens with themselves of one cammon country whose interests are identical with their own; that the sou n try grew and prospered under their administration and paity policy for more than sixty years; that the terri tory upon which we no live and breath was procured for us b. a D !)! ocratic administration; that th5 prin cipal tenet upon which the party is or ganized is the greatest good to tin greatest number, with security to all and oppression of none. They can banish from their thoughts these horrid bngbeais that iiaui.t their walks b dav and disturb their nightly slum bets, and they too will rejoice with us all that lee countiv is safe. CAMPAIGN Jt'USDS- Gorman Says They "Were Kot Supplied by i Yanderbilt or Corporations- New Youk, Nov. Sei ator A. P. Gorman, Chairman of the Democrat ic National Executive Committee, slates that Wm. II. Yanderbilt hap not made any contributed to the Na tional Democratic . Campaign fund. 'Mv reasons for wishing to deny the statement that Yanderbilt contributed $150,000 or any other sum," says Mr. Gorman, "is that the story is put out with the malicious intent of creating a. false impression that Cleveland and Hendricks received aid from that class of contributors and set of influences whose aid, when given at all, was v hol ly and unstintedly devoted to the ser vice of ?'r. Blaine, while the campaign of Cleveland and Head ricks was d pendent wholly upon popular support, given for the most p.irt in small sums;. Sums wealthy Democrats did their fair share, as did alio some Independent Republicans of large means, but there was no aid from tle large institutions likely to strek from the National Gov ernment new favors in the future or a continuence of the valuable privileges already enjoyed by them. Any part in the campaign taken by such bodies a. id parlies was entirely on the side of Blaine and Logan." Insw Orleans Exposition.
