Or'FtOIAL PAPER OF CLACKAMAS COINTY.
REGON CITY, OREGON, NOV. 1S72.
o
The Ilcsult.
O
The Grantites had an election
throughout the United States last
Tuesday, and as appears from the
returns published elsewhere, there
was but little opposition made any
where to their verdict that they de
sire to be the slaves of a corrupt
ring for the ensuing four years. AVe
had hoped that the American, pqg-
le were sick of the Present-Taker
and his venal follower?, but the re
sult last Tuesday shows otherwise,
and the people have endorsed the
rarty in power that is, those who
exercised the right to vote. In our
own State, Greeley is defeated by
about 2,500. This result docs not
by nn means indicate that the
Grant party is endorsed by a ma
jority of her citizens; but when
the returns are all in, the contrary
will be easily sbown. In every
county in the State Democrats de
clined to vote for Greeley, and the
vote of the State will show a de
crease of more than the Kadical
majority obtained, Uesides, there
were probably from 300 to 400 O'
Conor votes polled. Hence we do
not consider that the vote cast last
Tuesday was any test whatever of!
the strength of the two parties in
this State, and we presume that the
mhio state of affairs existed in all
the other States. The Liberal vote
cast in Oregon was very small, und
Greeley's strength was almost en
tirely from Democrats.
"While we advocated the support
of Mr. Greelev by the Democracy
not because he was a Democrat,
but because he had been nominated
by our party convention we do
not question the Democracy of any
irtat who saw fit not to vote for
him, and all such will readily and
cheerfully in the future act togeth
er when the issues are between
(S)
Democrats and Democratic princi- ;
pies. The issues presented in the
last election were not such as could
reasonably have been expected to
receive the unanimous endorsement
of the party. We consider that
the convention committed a seri
ous error by nominating Greeley.
The defeat sustained should bv no
means discourage the Democracy
of the country. Both the candi
dates who were defeated have been
prominent Radicals. They have
taken with them out of the Admin
istration ranks thousands of its
leaders. They cannot godxick to
Grant, unless they phi' the part of
cowardly sycophants. The- will
continue to add new recruits every
day during Grant's next term, and
when the election of 1870 occurs,
they will either bring their entire
strength to the Democracy, or will
attempt a ticket of their own. Let
Democrats closs up their lines.
Make read to fight shoulder to
shoulder hereafter. United and re
inforced, we must continue our
work. The defeat of Mr. Greeley
is by no means the death of the
Democracy, nor is its mission end
ed. Truth is eternal. Neither
defeat nor victory can add to or
take from it. Though all mankind
may at times apparently reject it,
the truth must ever stand firm, and
iu the cud be triumphant. In sup
port of the declarations and prin
ciples of the party opposed to the
Administration have been support
ed by the best and purest men of
the country. Money and offices i

Our Xew School .Law.
Decidedly the most meritorious
measure passed by the last Legis
lature is the law creating the office
of State Superintendent of Public
Instruction, a State Board of Edu
cation, and otherwise amending
Bur very defective school system.
The present law is peculiarly adapt
ed to the wants and condition of
our young State. Xot cumbersome
and unwieldy like the school law
of California and other States, but
compact and simple, only endeav
oring to supply those wants of
which the State has in the past so
deeply felt the need. There are still
some defects in the law but what
law has not defects? AYe do not
altogether approve of the manner
of selecting the text books for the
State, but at the same lime we re
alize that a fairer proposition than
the one leaving the selection of
text-books to a vote of the County
Superintendents could hardly be
offered. If the several County Su
perintendents before making selec
tions, would call to their aid and
assistance I lie most experienced
teachers of their counties, they
would doubtless secure a series of
text-books that would give great
er satisfaction to parents and
teachers than if they relied
on their own judgment in
the matter. This assistance they
will doubtless call for.
There are other defects in the
law of minor importance, we might
mention, as in the election of Di
rectors; we think it should be spec
ified that the polls should be kept
open a certain number of hours,
especially in populous districts in
order that all might have airoppor
tunity to vote. As the law now
stands the polls may be closed
within five minutes alter being
opened, thus debarring some from
the privilege of voting.
These are some of the defects of
the law. Y'e will not attempt to
show up its good points as it has
too manv to enumerate in the
s10rt soace
a single article. On
the whole we congratulate the
State on having secured so great
an improvement in the school law.
Separation of Church and Slate
Kn-laud.
Mr. Jacob Bright one of the
Liberal members of Parliament
from Manchester, has been making
a speech to his constituents in favor
of the disestablishment and disen
dowmeut of the English Church,
in which he brought forward a new
and original argument. He said
that Parliament, being omnipitcnt
with regard to the Church, could
do with it what it liked; and then
he proceeded to ask, what was this
Parliament which had such ex
traordinary power over a religious
institution '? Answering his own
question, he said it consisted of
two chambers for the most part
composed of the richest men iu the
kingdom. The Xew Testament
told us that a rich man should
hardly enter the kingdom of heav
en ; yet these men, laboring under
special spiritual disabilities, assum
ed to be the fittest person to ar
range and control the machinery
by which other people were to get
to heaven! They could determine
what the Church should icach,
could altar its observances.arrange
and rearrage the whole ecclesiasti
cal machinery. Mr. Bright thought
the State or Parliamentary Church
the most singular institution now
existing in England, and undertook
to say that it was no longer a
question of whether, but only of
when, it should be disestablished
and disendowed.

Condition of Arizona.
A constant reading of the Ari
zona papers, with their endless cat
alogues of Indian outrages, brings
the following editorial extract from
the Arizona Miner of the 21st nit.,
published at Prescott, out of the
realm of exaggeration into that of
stern reality:
It will soon be ten years since we first
arrived in this Territory, and in looking
back over our Inn? residence here, memo
ry fails to point out one week in which
one or mure while men have not been
murdered by Indians, and in which valua
ble property has not been stolen or de
stroyed by the same people. For five
years of this time our duty as editor of
this paper has compelled, us to record
most'of the bloody deeds that have been
enacted, as well as to note and comment
upon the losses that have been sustained
by our citizens. And, again, it has fallen
to our lot to view the mangled remains of
many of the victims of savage ferocity; to
feel for those whose last dollars worth of
property was taken (rom them; to lose
property of our own; to be made a target
of by Apaches; to be un the watch against
surprise, and to have our hair erect itself,
and to stand, ride and walk in fear and
trembling of lurking savages. Need we
say. then, that we are tired of the unpleas
ant duty it has forced us to perform?
Scarcely.
The article then recounts the
outrages "within past few weeks,"
which exhibit ten men killed and
about a hundred cattle, eight mules
and several horses stolen. The
melancholy part of all of this is that
a pet theory at Washington con
demns those who have the temerity
to live in .and open up this Ten itory
to be robbed and murdered by the
ruthless brutes for whom the "peace
policy was inaugurated. The In
dians on a reservation start out
and murder and murder and rob
right and left. Instead of swift
punishment being dealt out liberal
ly, the savages are besought
by the agents, v, ith tears in their
eyes to come in and bo fed out of
the public crib.
The stage robbery on the road
from "Wickenburg, in November
last, by which six persons were
murdered, was stated at first to be
the work of Mexican. This view
was supported, we learn by those
interested in proving the Apaches
wingless angels. An investigation,
balked at first by the peace policy
authorities, has now been carried
out by that stanch Indian fighter,
vieneral' Crook, which fixes the
guilt on the Apaehe-Mohavcs. A
stratagem was resorted to for the
purpose of capturing the offenders,
which did not completely succeed,
as the Indians suspected the ruse,
and, at the attempt to arrest one of
their number, showed light. The
result was seven Indians killed and
a soldier mortally wounded. Since
then one hundred Apache-Vumas
have returned, to the reservation,
"anxious to live at peace with the
wiiites, but determined to kill Ira
traba," tin Indian who gave infor
mation about the Wickenburir
massacre to General Crook. These
red gentlemen are to be fed, and
have been mildly .requested not to
kill Jratraba. Is it not timo all
this child's play with human tigers
should cease? Vast territories are
rendered worse than wilderness by
this policy. In a wilderness men
may perish struggling against the
odds of nature; but in addition to
these difficulties we have a premium
put upon murder through this poli
cy, which the cunning Indians
themselves laugh at. Indians who
adopt no other life but one of mur
der and rapine should be extermin
ated, on the same principle that a
city vagrant is sent to" prison.
Election lieturns.
The returns of the election up
to the hour of going to press are
meagre and indefinite. Enough,
however is known that the present
usurper of the "While House has
another four years in-anted him in
which to sell out the public offices
and to provide for his relatives.
The popular majority in the Union
will probably be over a half a mil
lion, und lie will get about two
hundred and seventy-five out of
the three hundred and sixty-six
electoral votes. If the rest of the
country can endure Grant and his
administration for another term,
we can. Following are the latest
returns :
Keturns from thirty counties in
Missouri, received at noon Thurs

Oregon and its Beauties.
We find the following beautiful
description of Oregon going the
rounds of the Eastern press, from
a correspondent : "Yesterday I
thought 1 had a pretty good idea
of Oregon ; to-day I think I know
very little about it. This is how
it came to change my mind : I
received a call from Gov. Gibbs,
who, by the way, is a true Chris
tian gentleman, but believes as
most Oregonians do, that it the
garden of Eden was not located
on the Willamette river, it was
through some mistake. In the
course of conversation he said to
me, 4 Well, you are going away
without seeing our State. You
Eastern men come here, spend a
week, see xi few of our mountains
rivers, und think Oregon is a moun
tainous, wooden State, whereas
thrte-fourths of it is prairie with
out a stick of timber on it.' Im
mediately I made up my mind to
be reticent about Oregon. I trav
eled a number of hundred miles
through the State. I saw some
things; I did not see those ptairies
good reason why, it took all the
time I had to spare to see a few of
the hills. O, Mr. Editor, I wish
you could have climbed with me
up Kobinson's Hill, back of Port
land. I have been to the tops of
the principal mountains in the
East, but I was never paid so lib
erally as by Kobinson's. Itself
capped as no Eastern mountain
could be, with cherry, pear and ap
ple orchards, it looks down on the
b e a u t i f u 1 W i ! la n 1 e 1 1 e r i v e r, w i n d i 1 1 g
around its base. Portland is wedg
ed in between the river banks and
the hill; a lew miles away the no
ble Columbia pours its Hood to
wards ihe Pacific. Away to the
north loom up Mt. Hood, Mt. Cra
gin, Mt. Adams, and Mt. St. Hel
ens, clothed in eternal snows of
white against the blue sky beyond ;
the sun' lights up their sides and
they glow like molten silver; now
the clouds descend on old Mt.IIood
and half of her 18,000 feet is hid
den ; lower the cloud descends, and
now we see the white peak and
base, while the black cloud seems
like a mighty girdle bound around
her. Turning, we look to the south
west, and see fur away the cele
brated Coast Kauge, to the south
east lie the Cascade Mountains,
while bills and valleys,covercd with
primeval forests stretch away to
the south as far as eve can reach
"i-iuiiiohanl in Washington Ttrrirory.
"While Ave have met with a de
feat in Oregon, our neighboring
Territory has come up most noblv
to the work and has uiven at least
1,000 majority to that old ami ven
erable Democrat, Hon. O. 15. Mc
Fadden, and retired to private life
the ' Silver-toned Orator,'1 Selucius
Oare'Ielde. "We congratulate the
good people of "Washington Terri
tory in having achieved this grand
victory, and having defeated one
of the corrupt and venal followers
of the Administration. J mitre
McFadden is a man from the peo
ple, an old citizen of the Territory,
honest and capable, lie knows
the wants of the people who have
elected him, and there will be no
neglect on his part to advance the
interest of the people who have
elected him by such a handsome
majority. I his is the first time
since 1SG2 that a Democrat has
been elected from Washington
Territory. All honor to her free
and noble citizens.
Ti:a"nks. A friend, on learning
that three or four of our patrons
had discontinued, their paper be
cause wo deemed it our duty to
support the nojnince of the party,
has generously plodded himself to
furnish us two subscribers for each
one- discontinued. Our friend has
our thanks, and we can assure him
and all others concerned, that no
matter how obnoxious candidates
nominated by our legally consti
tuted conventions may be to us, as
loner as we claim to run .a party
paper, the part if shall have the in
11 nonce of the paper.
Ci.ACKArA.s Cotntv. We have
not been able to obtain the official
vote of this county for this issue.
Grant has :lbout 200 majoriay. We
think that the vote cast in the
comity is fully 250 less than was
polled last spring, and there were
between fifty and sixty O'Conor
votes cast. Had Greeley received
the strength of the Democratic
party in this county, he would have
had at least one hundred majority.
