The :hamora of tb campaign," mani
fested in the eowrw of the Democratic pa
per! of onr State,are rather interesting and
instructive, s indicating the tendency of
the times and illustrating the utter de
moralisation which baa overtaken tbe
prty and foreshadows its defeat. The
Democrat is manfully and with some de
gree of ability proving to a demonstra
tion that tbe favorite Democratic dogma of
repudiation is both wicked and absurd.
In tbe prosecution of , that righteous the
ory Bellinger has utterly demolished tbe
Herald. Tbe work was begun too late,
however, ke should have demolished the
Convention that so greedily seized repudi
ation and fastened it 'upon the prty
Bellinger is more Quixotic than the veri
table old Dolfi ever is said to have been
"Watkinda, as a second Saocho Panza,
endeavors to back up the denial of re
pudiation in Grover's Organ, but tbe ol
scenity of that journal enltivates a Dem
ocratic element that' eren repudiation
could never reach. Meanwhile the Her
ald is simply idiotic. The sense of dan
ger and apprehension of defeat, and fail
are to get the State printing to do, these
things have "overcome it like a summer
cloud," and what little wit it had, and
imported from Salem, has no longer a
trace of reason in it. Prove this for
yourselves by forcing your eye to peruse
ny of its atttempts at wit.
We admire tbe spirit of the Democrat
la "taking up arms against & sea of
troubles," but it is too late in the day,
to "by opposing end tbem." . We admire
tbe spirit of tbe man who struck Billy
Patterson, also of. the other man who
butted the bull off tbe bridge, even tbe
indiscretion of tbe noble bovine who
stood with levelled horns to try a bout
ith the locomotive bad a merit in it, but
the fate of the animal, and the scattering
of his remains, indicate what will be
come of the Democratic journalist who
argues that tbe 8th resolution of tbe
Democratic series has in it no trace of
repudiation.
An Unfair Attack.
O'Meara pretends to have discovered
from , the business manager of Grover's
Organ that the leading editorials of that
classic sheet are furnished by tbe founder
of tbe " Oregon style" himself. We are
aware that, to keep tbe "style" he organ
ised alive in tbe affections of the people,
be agreed to join tbe "association,' so
far as providing tbe sinews of war, and
assisted in making the preliminary ar
rangements, bnt that was only from i
eorpi (Ttsprit. No one who knows bim
will believe (?) that while be - vigorously
denies having responsibility for its edito
rials, he is so cowardly as to skulk br
bind bis iron frrnt and plated glass win
daws and mske obscene attacks upon po
litical opponents. It is some other per
eon who furnishes tbe malice and the
data to point the indecency of those
graceful paragraphs. Wby should be
waste even . money on a party that as
fully repudiates bim as it would tbe na
tional debt. Every dog bas bis day, and
if be should really be the author of the
Grover editorials, it is because be fails to
recognizze that his day is past. lie
would only resemble some worn out ca
nine who, having been vicious and wick
ed in bis prime, is still vengeful enough
in toothless, purblind old age to snarl at
all humanity and bay; tbe moon., Wbea
this man assails,it will be in open day,as
it has been ' before, and probably with
about the same effect. In the words ' f
the immortal bard, " Prythee 1 Go
marry .'. '": j , ' '
The Candidates and the Roughs.
Yesterday tbe steat.er Reliance came np
tbe river bringing three distinguished
demecrati, Mr. Ffcisehner, candidate for
State Treasurer, Mr. Patterson, ditto for
Bute Printer, and Judge -Stoat, who once
represented Oregon Democracy in tbe
Lower House cf Congress and is now a
'prominent aspirant for the United States'
Senate These gentlemen were apparently
in charge of some naif a dozen roughs
democratic voters, of. course -and evi
dently were conveying tbem to some point
on the upper river where their , services
are needed on election day. Tbe would-be-Senator
was cheek by jowl with the
migrating crowd, and with the greatest
familiarity entertained them and was en
tertained in tarn. The 'intelligent voters'
had a bottle, or ever so many bottles, full
of liquor, no doubt furnished by tbe lib
erality of the distinguished gentlemen
who stood guard and stood treat alter
nately. Occasionally the Senatorial aspi
rant tipped the bottle with them on the
guards, and they repeatedly drank at the
bar, sometime,, with bim and sometimes
without bim, so that when the boat ar
rived at Salem, they were, hippy enough,
and the Judge was as happy as they. One
of these worthies was so jovial that he
danced a pa it setd in the ladies cabin ;
we.ebeerfully do the Judge and the two
Slate Candida tea" "tli e justice to say they
did not" dance with their voting friends,
though, they evidently "paid the fiddler."
We state these facts with the greatest
reluctance. These distinguished gentle
men 'bear fair reputations ; their names
are prominently before the people, and
their friends will much regret to learn
that tbe demoralization of Democracy bas
brought tbem to be boon companions ind
' bail fellows well met whb every vagabond
who carries a vbisky bottle and bas a
vote. Such scenes as these nosy well
make the recording aogel weep, bat thta
the Republican victory which is to follow
tbem Will maste mm smile again.
Marion County Democratic Ticket.
We do not wish to slight tbe Democrat
ic nominees of Marion county, by failtnVt
to notice them particularly, bnt they will
attract so little notice in the canvass,
that they do not deserve to occupy much
Space previously. The candidates for
Senators, are Capt John F. Miller, "a
retired artist in Indian vouchers,"and
-U. S. Senator, B. F. Harding. The
latter Is toan of very little pretense
and of few words. During the time te
filled a seat representing Oregon in the
National Coogress, it cost tbe Govern
ment not over 25 cents to print his
speeches delivered on the floor. He drew
bis salary with great regularity, and ad
mired and supported Lincoln, and was
so fear foT that the Government would
go to peices, that be sold bis savings
and as be was very saving they amounted
to thousands of dollars for 40 cents on
tbe dollar, coin. This incident makes
bim a subject for equitable adjustment
Tbe unktndoess of some or the Delegates
was manifest in tbe refusal to consider
him a democrat, bnt Bill Watkinds took
tbe returning prodigal on his .back, swore
to bis legitimacy and packed bim through.
Tbe "retired artist" bas the advantage
of Ben. Harding in this, that be always
looks as if be knew a great deal more
than he does, whereas, Ben. looks less
wise and knows much more. Carrying a
wise appearance is the forte of our "ar-
tUt," and he would certainly overawe
tbe whole Legislature with the owlish
wisdom of his aspect if he could get a
seat in it. But their chances are not
even desperate, they have just no chance
at all, and if they and all the balance
were twice as wise as they look, and
looked twice as wise as they do, it
wouldn't pay us to waste valuable time
discussing tbeir prospects.
On the Trade-
N
The Democracy of the State, who have
put tbeir ticket in tbe field in good (aitb,
will be pleased to learn that the Salem
clique and tbe Grover Organ are working
simply for the election of L. F. Grover as
Governor, and are devoting tbeir energies
entirely and exclusively to that end. If
there is such a principle known as " hon
or among thieves," the "association"
- have never learned it. They are satis
fied that tbe situation is precarious, and
' to be or not to be successful in electing
Grover, is the question they ponder. Mr
Slater wll be delighted to learn that any
number of Democrats in Salem are will
ing to vote for Wilson for Congress to se
cure votts for Grover for Governor. We
have beatd of this before, and tbe evi
dence becomes plainer as tbe election
draws nigher. It is as plain as a nose un
-tbe face of a man that Bill Watkinds,
having the promise of being Superinten
dent of tbe Penitentiary in case of Gro
ver's election, is spending every hourf
time and every dollar of money he can
spare to insure that result. Of course
every vote ezchanged so as to win one
strengthens Grover's desparate chances
and Watkinds is not tbe man to lose bis
own chance and waste his own money
As be has tbe say so here in ail things
and as the Salem clique have no love for
Slater, the latter gentleman's cliance? in
Marion conoty grow small by degrees and
beautifully less. Now tbe Salem clique
and tbeir organ all belong to Grover
and we thus have the interesting specta
cle afforded us, of two men occupying the
highest place on. tbe Democratic ticket
and one if them virtually attempting to
- sacrifice the other to secure himself.
We, ot course, expect to defeat tbem
both, and if tbey didn't feel it in tbeir
bones tbey wouldn't be ready to sell out
eacb other, but tbe Democracy of Oregon
may as well know what to expect.
Statistics. Wo; have received from
the Board of Statistics, Immigration anJ
Labor Exchange of Portland, a copy of a
pamphlet on " Oregon, Its Advantages
as an Agricultural and Commercial State."
This work, though inferior in mechanical
execution, is far superior in practical in
formation to tbe Statistics of Oregon
which have been so widely and judicious
ly distributed. The author makes a re
markably candid and truthful statement
of tbe climate and condition of the peo
ple of Oregon. Besides this there is a
statistical and correct statement of tbe
markets, prices of land, wages, cost and
routes of travel, etc., compiled from va
rious sources, and all going to make np a
volume of which at least 100,000 should
be published. We need a population of
producers. That population is in need of
just such a field as our State offers them,
and tbe question is, how shall we furnish
them with the needed information ? The
reply is, just put sucb publications as
the one we speak of in the hands of every
man who is looking for a home. Tbe
work is for gratuitous distribution, and
we suggest to tbe Board that letters of
inquiry are frequently addressed to tbe
Statesman from tbe Northwestern States,
and we sbonld be pleased to receive afew
copies of their - pamphlet to be sent in re
. plyto such Utters.
.' Too Slow. A gentleman of this place
has shown us a copy of tbe Wilsoa Coun
ty Courier, published at Kausa?, and sent
by a brother who is a lawyer in that
place. That paper claims to be located
on tbe "outpost of civilizition," and is
evidently so far out as not to be posted at
all. It was directed to "W. B. MtMahon,
Salem', Oregon Territory." Now, consid"
ermg tbe fact that Oregon was a State
when Kansas was not even a well organ
ized territory, we would suggest that in
tbe latter place, tbey procure a later ed
ition ot tbeir school geographies. When
the newspapers are so wofuliy ignorant it
is not strange that tbeir readers lack in
formation concerning tbe Pacific coast.
We have mailed them a copy of tbe Sta
tistics of Oregon and hope to bear again.
'Gross Misripissbmtatios. Of course
Ben, Hayden couldn't say his piece here
without dishing op the pretended bill to
enforce tbe 15th amendment, which bas
been published in all the Democratic pa
pers. As there is no bill containing the
provisions be recited now pending before
Congress, and as no such bill bas ' been
passed this session, a simple denial winds
up this clamor. We learn by the dis
patches that there ia a bill pending for
- the simple purpose of enforcing tbe pro
visions of the amendment, and designa
ting the courts that have jurisdiction ia
soch cases. It is necessary to have legis-
lation to carry out Constitutional provis-
" ions, and the bill now pending is necer
firy'.propef and entirely unobjectionable.
. A Little Capital. ;
For tbe lack of something to look like
argument, and lor fear that a people
prospering as we are under the present
administration should tire of j genial de-
nunciations,and frantic shrieks about op
pression; our; Democratic neighbors.are
sometimes driven to some desperate at
tempts at making a point. For instance,
we lately bad tbe following heartrending
account of the conviction of a man for
an offense against tbe law of tbe land:
"This poor man. ignorant! of the law
governing the manufacture and sale of
spirituous liquors, because of bis ignor
ance of his liability under! this law,
which be bad never seen, and if he bad,
could not have understood, was sen
tenced to what? Pay the amount or the
"tax" with reasonable damages? io
everything he had vat teized and confiscated ;
sold Kr ibe beotfit of tbe spies and oni
cers, and last week, to complete the in
famy, this poor gardener was tried by
Judge Deady's Court, at Portland, and
sentenced to pay a fine of two thousand
dollars and costs, and be imprisoned in
the county jail for tbe term of one year."
Such is tbe case that it would make
out, and thus attempt to fasten odium on
some one connected with the Republican
party. But a few facts, which are well
known to all in tbe neighborhood of the
occurrences referred to, and even in evi
dence on the trial, will cause that highly
inflated story to collapse like an over
blown bubble. That "poor old man,"
" poor gardener," etc., is aged about 28
years and owns about $20,000 worth of
property. Poor old man 1 He under
stood tbe terms of the law so well that
for three years be regularly gave notice,
took out license, paid special tax, ind
stamped bis barrels according to law
Tbe fourth year he tried to make a saving
of a considerable sum, and instead of be
ing hunted up by spies, the Department
badhis own notifications of '67, 'G3, and
'CD to show where and in what business
he was. On being visited, be stated that
tbe barrels contained wine, and 'on their
being found to contain brandy, said itbad
been made under the old law. His prop,
erty was neither seized nor confiscated,
excepting that made in defiance of law,
nor has any of it been sold.
With these trifling corrections, tbe
statement quoted is correct. No comment
is needed, except to add that the defend
ant was tried by a jury of his peeri ; he
bad tbe assistance of tbe ablest of coun
sel, was dully convicted, and was Ben
tenced to tbe lightest penalty of tbe law
in such case provided. We do not know
the politics, of the pariiea concerned, nor
do we need. To know in order to say that
it is difficult' to see bow a, 'sworn officer,
whatever bis political preferences, could
have, acted otherwise tnanwas done in
this case. The only possible 'argument to
tbe coutrary must be that Democratic
officers would not arrest a man, no matter
haw open might be his violation of la
Dishing tip a Record.
The Com viercial devotes balf a column,
in the following stjle, to tbe political
record of one of tbe " association of gen
tlemen (so-called)." It is wasting words,
however, upon a "dead duck."
Now, let us take a review of the political
record of II r. liusb : tie came to Oregon
with tbe promise of tne publie (Territo
rial) printing; on his arrival here be was
installed into clerkly position in tbe Ter
ritorial legislature until nis press ar
rived. This whs under Democratic ad
ministration, and from that time down to
1859 be was Territorial Printer, by Demo
cratic votes to maintain him in tbe rich pay
inz office, out of which be accumulated a
fo ia.ee. In 1853 he was elec ed, and in
1859 he assumed office as Slate Printer
for the new State of Oregon, elected by
Democratic votes, lo 1859, when certain
of the office until 1802, be failed to sup
port tne Democratic ticket; again, id
18G0, be failed to Eupport the regularly
nominated Democratic candidate fur Con
gress, Col. G. K. Shiel, acd in the au
tumn of that year advocated tbe election
of A. J. Thayer, for Congress, in order
to prevent Col. Sbiel troin getting bis
seat in the House. He went to Washing
ton with Mr. Thayer, and managed to gt
bim admitted in place of Col. Shiel, i
tbe extra session of July, 1881 ; but tbe
seat was finally voted by tbe House to
Col 5biel. In 1SG1, Mr. liusb juined the
Republican party, and in-18C2, alter the
death of Harvey Gordon, who bad been
elected State Printer by tbe Republicans,
Mr. Bush was elected by the Republican
Legislative Arstmbly of Oregon to tbat
lucrative position, which be bad beld iiy
Democratic election in 1858 to tbat time,
and be continued to hold offices as State
Printer, by Republican votes, until 18G4.
About that time be again changed front,
and has, since 1865, acted now and then
with tbe Democrats.
We do not charge tbat Mr. Bush pro
fessed Democracy when he first came to
Oregon as a consequence ot tbe office
voted to bim ; tbat be observed the same
profession of party faith until 1858, only
to again obtain the office ; or that it was
because of tbe spoils thrown to bim and
voted to bim by tbe Republicans from
1860 down to 1864, that be went over to
-that party and remained with them dur
ing those four years. Tbe singular coin
cidences which mark L 13 change of party
alliance and party apostacy wherein
office and rich pay invariably accompan
ied each turn be made migbt create tbe
impression in many minds tbat, as with
Judas,, it was the price of silver which
actuated bim ; but we do not say it was.
We think, however, .hat a man who bas
eo crooked and ; so impeachable a politi
cal record ought to be tbe last one to at
tempt to assail the political record of one
who never yet, in -twenty-five years of
somewhat active political life, neither
abandoned nor betrayed his party, nor
voted any other than a Democratic ticket,
as we have done..
Old Anthony Wayne, when be beard of
the treason of Benedict Arnold, wrote to
a friend '
. " I can't say that I was much shocked
on tbe occasion. I bad long known the
man; as early as 1776 be produced a
conviction to me tbat honor and true
virtue weru strangers lo bis ooul and,
however contradictory it may appear, he
did not possess either fortitude or per
sonal courage. ; He was naturally a cow
ard, and never went into danger but when
stimulated by liquor, even to intoxica
tion ; consequently not capable of con
ducting any command committed to bis
charge." , ; " v . '
Spiakiho Last Nisht. We were agree
ably disappointed at the speech of J. W.
Johnson, Esq , last evening, and frtm
the way a number of men looked who
slunk out ULable to stand his best hiti,
we thought they too were disappointed
also. The speaker ia frightfully Demo
cratic in all his views except when he
comes to tbe vital 8ih resolution.md then
be is sound on the bird. He showed the
scheme of national fraud op in a remark
able clear manner. But the lateness of
the hour prevented an extended notice of
his remarks.

.' halleldjah(I).
En. Statbsmah : . The campaign has
opened in Polk county ; the huge masses
of Democracy hava-responded to the call
of their Chief. The time-honored princi
ple are rushing triumphantly over all ob
structions yea, evea the Eighth resolu
tion" and " Eqoitible Adjustment." As
tbe day drew to a close, one migbt hare
seen the faithful wending their way to the
Court House in solid phalanx. The Par
son took the lead, chanting in tbe most
Boul-thrilling tonts that glorious air,
" Away down South In Dixie." The rear
was brought up by tbat eJortoua old
Democratic stand-by, Clingham. jAs'hey
filed away in tbe dnsky twilight the sight
caused my eyes to fill with tears; I
thought of tbe departed glory of tbe
Southern Confederacy, and in ruminating
upon that subject my mind naturally re
verted to an organization which we per
fected on this coast, known as the Jones
Family, tbe patriotic principles embodied
in their cede of laws ; alas 1 the rising
generation died with the Order, but tbe
spirit remains still.
We were soon comfortably seated,
there beiog six Democrats and fifteen Re
publicans. Tbe house was called tc or
der by the Parson, who remarked tbattbe
audience would be addressed on the mo
mentous issues of the day. Upon this an
nouncement there was a stir upou the
bench, back of the speaker's desk, and
who should rise up, as if by magic, to
electrify the audience, but " Great Un
washed ' bimself. After divesting himself
of seven comforts, three neck-lies, four
blankets, a bed-quilt and Be ven shirts, he
seemed to breath easy, not, however, un
til be bad rent asunder the fastenings of
all tlie buttons of the only remaining
shirt. Upon this, tbe Republican per
tion of tbe audience cbeered tremendous
ly, they believing in their disgusting ig
norance that tbey were witnessing a feat
of legerdemain. As soon as tbe noise
subsided the- great man was delivered of
an utterance.
He prefaced Lis remarks with a million of
benefits which this nation bad received
from the Democracy. He dwelt with
soul-atirricg pathos un the great and good
deeds o tbe leaders of tbe late "onpleas
antness;" from tbenee he descended from
bis lotly flight of eloquence down to tbat
horror of all Democrats tne "ritieentb
amendment." Here it was tbat be
"sloshed over," to use his own iuipree
eive language. He said tbat tbe time
was coming when our sods and daughters
mutf marry "niggers.". We would be
compelled to associate with tbe leprous
Chinaman'; but for bis part, he expected
to be dead and gone by the time tbat
these things were brought about. U
was interrupted with tbe most deafening
applause ; whether the applause was for ,
bis burst of eloquence, or for tbe remark
that be was contemplating "shuffling off
tVis mortal coil," I uever knw; tbe fact
is I was bathed in a fl )od ot ' tears, lean
ing upon tbe breast of tbe Parson fr
support, and I verily believe there were
but few dry eyes in tbe audience, with
the exception of those who were asleep.
Those tbat slept comprised tbe fifteen
Republicans and four Democrats. Here
the speaker subsided. S.

Wilson and Salter at Portland-
Happening to be in Portland on Wed
nesday evening, re attended the discus
sion at the Court Ilsuse between Judge
Wilson and Mr. Slater. Tbe latter opened
the debate, and devoted a great part of
his speech to tbe attempt to prove tbat
the general prosperity of the country was
at low ebb, which was due to our having
launched into a payer money policy more
ruinous than ever was known, by which
means six hundred millions of our debt
represented the bonus paid for money to
carry on the' war, which amount was
therefore unjust and should not he paid.
Slater's idea of adjustment is to issue
greenbacks for the full am'ouut and give
bondholders the chance to exchange the
old bonds for new ones for two-third the
amount to be paid in gold. We merely give
bis positions, but have not time to give
the argument in full. The greater part
of bis speecch was devoted to recon
struction, which Judge Wilson showed
,was fully accomplished, and therefore was
no issue. As to the amendments, as a
lawyer be pronounced tbe Supreme Court
wrong iu sustaining tbem, and be an
swered the common supposition tbat the
decisions of tbat Court are te be yielded
to, by the revolutionary appeal, that
"having reason to goby there was no
reason wby we should be f l ives" to those
decisions. Tbe Chinaman, negro end
Indian came in for tbe most of his atten
tion, and occupied much time. All of his
were assailed and triumphantly carried
by Judge Wilson, who even proved tbat
the Democratic party first urged Chinese
immigration to this coast', and having
power now in California, have adjourned
the Legislature witboujk doing anything
to hinder it. The great majority of the
audience were with WiUon, and gave all
his points due emphasis indeed be had
to ask them to spare the applause so as
not to deprive him of the use of his
time. All were delighted with bis sue
cess.' The points touched upon by tbe
debaters will afford us material for future
essays. .
j Tbibutb to Whom Tributb is Dos. A
friend furnishes the following interesting
item, with his ri flection on the subject :
Tbe greed of the Chinaman for gain bas
become almost proverbial. He bas ever
been stigmatized as ungrateful; regarded
indeed as a social evil a human vam
pire, if you please, receiving all and
giving back none of the favors shown
bim. These would, indeed, we fear, be
too often be of an indifferent character if
bestowed in kind, consisting chiefly of
kicks and cuffs, with added insults. A
little circumstance occurred a few days
since, in our . midst, which, if rightly
viewed, by one not too strongly preju
diced, might do much to remove such
false impressions lrom tbe mind. It is
perhaps not generally known that there
is -a class formed fcr tbe instruction of
these greedy Celestials as they are
called under the charge.of Mrs. Frambes,
assisted by several young ladies ot the
City. ;:, ;
All compensation for these service har
ing been steadily refused on the part ot
the teachers, tbe class a few evenings
since evinced their gratitude for services
so invaluable to them, by the bestowal of
of a handsome gift, amounting- ia all
coin and. presents to one hundred and
thirty-five dollars, thus evincing at least
their appreciation of tbe kindness of
these self-sacrificing ladies, and proving
that tbeir generosity coald at least keep
pace with the wonderful progress they
nave made ia their studies for tbe last
year. , .
