EDITORIAL NOTES.
Voto for Rtiloy itntl Rinehnrt.
Son that the names of Turner Oliver
nml W. 11. llull'innn tiro on your ticket
when you go to voto.
A man who will pray for prohibition
on Sunday and work and speak ngniiiHt
it on wouk days is about us inconsist
ent a mortal as wo know of.
Tho La Ornndo Journal should
squirt onco nioro at J. W. Norval, and
quit. Soino men have tho unhappy
faculty of doing more, harm than good
to any caupo thoy osnouso.
Tho Gazette is only making votes for
W. 11. HutVinnn when it keeps harping
on that Antolopo precinct episode
There- to nothing in it, as everybody
known. When tho Gazette can find
nothing but Mich a feeble, charge, as
that to bring against Mr. Hutl'man it
is in a sail strait to bo sure.
A call has been made for tho Dcin
ocinlio County Convention of llaker
county to reassemble to-day "for tho
purpose of designating who shall bo
tho candidate for representative."
From what wo can loam, Hindmnn is
tho choieo of a majority of tho party,
but IlainoB suits the wire pullers tho
lest.
Tho llaker City Jievrille says : "J.
II. Haley, a schoolmate of tho editor of
this paper, is a candidate for joint
senator of Union and Umatilla coun
ties, on tho democratic ticket. jjJ. II.
Haley is. a man of unquestioned ability,
integrity and honesty, and ho will
ably and earnestly represent his con
stituents if elected, and wo think ho
will bo."
In Judgo (toodall's letter in this is
Buo will bo found a statement concern
ing Tun Scout'h delinquent tax of
1885. It in a correct statement,
Judgo (ioodall lias not shown us any
favoritism, nor do wo beliovo ho will
do so to any man when it conirs to
bueinesH. Wo honestly boliovo that if
the great Jehovah's name appeared on
tho tax list, Goodall would make him
"unto up" and run tho risk of boiug
rousted thiough all eternity for doing
The La Onuulo Guz't hits got riled
up and wants to 1 ct us a humJrrd dol
lar that wo can't tell who is giing to
be elected thoro now! The Gacrilr
Iuib evidently made a rui'su mice the
assessor was around lurt. At that
tiino the proprietor wcio not worth a
hundred cent. Wo arc plensod at
this evidence of its prosperity and
would not bankrupt it again, if wo'
could.
Just why the republicans so strenu
ously oppoao the prohibition party wo
arc at a lots to know. The claim that
it will draw more largely from tho re
publican than from tho democratic
ranks is certainly fallacious. Union
precinct in largely democratic and at 1 that can only bo overcome by conccn
tho recent election gave amajoiity for trated and vigorous action. How of
prohibition. La Grande precinct is ton we bear men who are successful
largelv republican, ami it ijavo a ma in biUMiiess, and shrewd in every day
jority'ngaiiwt prohibition. hat is one " fu,
illustration of it, and we have nodoubt j '1U tanlf question is too deep for
that the state is full ofumilaroi.es. ' I cy uu't ki anything
J. II. Ihiloy, democratic candidate
for joint fonator, has invited his oppo
nent, A. It. Mattoon, to make a joint 1
canvass of Umatilla county. We un
derstand that Mattoon declines, on the
ground that he don't know much about
the political situation, and says that if
Haley wants to discuss tho relative
merits of Stavor it Walker's farm im
plements w'ith those put up by other
firms, ho will "go him a round."
Mattoon is no Moses. Mattoon knows
ho don't know much, and don't pro
tend to know moro than he knows,
but what ho does know he knows just
as well as tho next man knows it. I To
knows enough to let Kaley alone.
Mr. J. 1). Guild, republican candi
date for assessor, called on us this
week. Ho has had the misfortune to
lose one leg, but the deficiency is arti
gcially supplied and ho does 110L use;
crutches as fconio may suppose. On
tho contrary, ho gets around with
about as much ease and as rapidly as
anyone else. It does not prevent him
from plowing, teaming and doing other
kinds of work 011 his farm. Mr. Guild
is a fair penman, has taught several
terms of school in this country and in
Kansas, and served as asfoetor there
for some time. l ie appears to bo a
man of moro than ordinary intelligence
and wo arc inclined to believe that tho
people will not miss it much by elect
ing him asucssor.
ACT U'lSJ Li".
The election which will occur iu less
than two wcoks from this date will be
tho most important In its results of
any that has occurred iu many years."
Insignificant as tho State of Oregon
is when compared to some of its more
populous neighbors, it is being
watched by tho entire Union with con
siderable interest and the voico of its
pcoplo as showing the tread of popu
lar opinion iu regard to new and vital
issues, may bo tho cause of important
changes iu tho policy of tho United
States government Every man should
feel that bo has an individual interest
in the matter and that upon his actions
as well as at that of every other citi
zen rests the safety, piospcrity and
freedom of this fair laud. As tho
hosts of Napoleon, beneath tho Pyra
mids of Egypt, wore reminded that
the heroes of forty conturios were
looking down upon them, so should
our peoplo bear iu mind that, not
only tho departed patriots of our own
country, who resisted all attempts to
enslave them in former times, but tho
tolling masses of their living brethren
as well, are looking at them now and
expect them to act vLoly and well.
Wo havo but liltlo fear that this will
not bo done. Our faith iu tho good
sense and honesty of tho peoplo of tho
republic Is great, llrave. patient,
generous, forbearing and slow to act ,
but onco thoroughly awakened to tho
knowledge of a wrong, that wrong is
knocked out of existence with an alac
rity that is truly rofroshing.
Thorols but ono question now before
tho Amorican peoplo to bo disposed
of, but that is a question of vast im
portance One in which tho sacred
lights of every citi.on is involved.
U is a question of taxation unjust
taxation, compared with which tho
Stamp Act, which so raised tho ho of
our ancestors In llostou harbor, is as
nothing. Tho spirit of Injustice is
identical, but tho method adopted Is
far more dangerous, because hedged
about with tho sophistry of designing
demagogues who would load tho unin
formed and unsuspecting to boliovo
that It Is a blessing instead of a curse.
An cnoinv advancing openly wo may
know how to withstand, but when ho ,
comes unttor tito guiso 01 moiuoriy
friendship we tire takon at a disadvan
tage, Let no man bo docelvod. On
ono side iu this contest arc arrayed all
tho millionaires monopolists rail
road kings and the pimuitos of that
monlod aristocracy which a mistaken
system of government has forte-red.
On tho other side arc tho tolling hon-
est masses of the people. On one
side is brought to bear all the iiiilu- ,
euro that money can procure, on the i
i other is opposed the voice of the pco- j
I pie, backed only by tho consciousness ,
I of justice and right. When sixty .
! million dollars tiro wrested from the ;
' people each year, in excess of the
) needs of the government there is a
gigantic wrong to bo righted. Rut
when we rolled that the proness that
puts that sum into the IT. .S. treasury '
drops at the same lime a much greater I
amount into tho pockets of a favored j
class under the plea that our "infant J
iiiiln.-tries" arc thus protected, it at j
once becomes apparent that resistance
will bo made to any move having for
its object the mitigation of the evil,
uuuui 11, aim win navu iu k:uu it iu
the party loaders. What an admis
sion for any man endowed with ordi
nary reason to make! In it are the
germs of that weakness that dcrna-
fcgogucs make use of, and despots fos
ter to their interest. AViUiaui Lloyd
Garrison trulv says:
There is
nothing iutiicate in freedom, free in
stitutions, the law of interchange, llio
measure of reciprocity. It is tho leg
erdemain of class legislation, disre
garding the common interests of the
people , that creates confusion , sophis
ticates the judgment , and dazzles to
betray." He is correct. Keason is
the safeguard of mankind, and ho
who cannot exercise it, or is afraid to
lest he offend sonic man lie esteems as
a leader, is in a fair way to become a
slave.
Wo trust that every reader of Tin:
Scout will fully investigate this ques
tion for himself and at the ensuing
election throw off nil servile allcgianco
to party or party leaders and vote as
hiseasoii directs him, whether it be
right or wrong. Mis verdict when
agregaled with thoso given by his
neighbors, and tho average drawn,
will bo the right one. Then will
demagogues and money sharks, who
only thrive on the credulity of the
people, wake up to find their occupa
tion .gone. The toiling slaves in the
factories of our cities, who pay iu
sweat a tribute to their masters, and
are doled out just enough bread to
keep life in their bodies, will find a
measure of relief, although in their
ignorance they may not know from
whence it comes. Tho fanners and all
the 'workers who compose the bone
and sinew of tho country, and whose
exertions are guided by reason, will
bo glad in the consciousness that they
are the arbiters of their own fortunes,
and that a mark of servitude in tho
shape of a revenue stamp, is not to be
found 011,' every thing they cat, drink
or wear. Then will there dawn an
era of prosperity such as we have
never witnessed, and our people di
vested of every species of slavery will
grow broader minded as tho years ad
vance, and our land wilt be a glorious
one indeed.

The First Sign
Of failing health, whether in tho form of
Night Sweats and Nervousness, or in a
senso of General Weariness and Loss of
Appetite, should suggest tho uso of
Aycr's Sarsaparilla. This preparation
is most effectivo for giving tone and
strength to tho enfeoblcd system, pro
moting tho digestion and assimilation of
food, restoring tho nervous forces to
their normal condition, and for purify
ing, enriching, and vitalizing tho blood.
Failing Health.
Ten years ago my health began to fail.
I was troubled with a distressing Couch.
NightiSweats, Weakness, and Nervous
ness. I tried various remedies pre
scribed by different physicians, but
becamo so weak that I could not go up
stairs without stopping to rest. My
friends recommended mo to try Aycr's
Sarsaparilla, which I did, and lam now
as healthy and strong as ever. Mrs.
K. L. Williams, Alexandria, Minn.
I have used Ayer's Sarsaparilla, in my
family, for Scrofula, and know, if it is
taken faithfully, that it will thoroughly
eradicate this terriblo disease. I havo
also prescribed it as a tonic, as well as an
alterative, and must say that I honestly
bolievo it to bo tho best blood mediclno
e.vercompounded. W. F. Fowler,M.D.,
D. D. S., Greenville, Tenn.
Dyspepsia Cured.
It would bo imnossiblo for mo to de
scribe what I suffered from Indigestion
and Ileadacho up to tho time I began
taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I was under
tho caro of various physicians, and tried
a great many kinds of medicines, but
never obtained moro than temporary re
lief. After taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla
for a short time, my hcadacho disap
peared, and my stomach performed its
duties moro perfectly. To-day my
health is completely restored. Mary
llarlo'y, Springiield, Mass.
I havo been greatly benefited by tho
firompt uso of Ayor'a Sarsaparilla. It
ones and invigorates tho system, regu
lates tho action of tho digestivo and
assimilative organs, and vitalizes tho
blood. It is, without doubt, tho most
reliable blood purifier yet discovered.
