W 11 E KIN' IKit, of M'lllrvmnh county. E. B. SKlPWUKfil, of I'onluu, count. Ai TO -MOXKKYIMi.' The Herald of yesterday morning y : "A very irregular piocess of contet :ng an election is going on at ".ie Court Hous..'. At the instance of judge Whiiney.vho was defeated for the o.ike of Courty Judge last June,a little partv of demoo-ats, consisting of T. J. Stiles, editor of the Democrat, W. R. Bilveu and Judge Whitney, together with Judge BlacUburn, met in the coun'v court room vesterday morning ?nd insti tuted an election count of their own. They deserve c.-edit, perhaps, for permitting Mr. Blackburn to be present. They proceeded to take the ballo.s from the clerk and af ier unsealing them entered upon a count of the same, etc " This mean, contemptible insmua ion is intended ;oand does convey the 'dea that the "edi.or of the Democrat" had assumed to manipulate the ballots cast fo' CounLy Judge. Nowforthefacis : On last Sail". -day Judge Whitney informed the "edi .or of the Democrat" that he and Judge Blacl -burn had agreed 'o recount .lie ba'lols cv t for County Judge, as allegations ?nd slate menu had been made that many misir'-.e-in the various par:s of the couniy had been made in the cojnt. The "editor of the Democrat" stated tojude Whi-.iey tiirt he would like lobe present at the count. OT course as a newspaoer man the "ediior c t the Democrat" desired to get the result of their count. Judge Whitney said it wrs all right and that he would like to have the "eiitor" totally the coi'nt. Of course the "editor" would do this, as that was what he Intended to do for himself. Now this was a".l the ' ejitor" h?d to do in making up what the Herald calls a "returning board." The Herald says "they proceeded to lake the ballots from the clerk and after unseal ing them,entcrcd upon acount of the same.'' Now the truth is that Mr. Blackburn him self went to the clerk's office and carried the ballots into the county court room, and unsealed them and read them off and allied them. If there was ii rei'la,-,.'y o.- oome- hing worse, as the Herald vaguely inti mates in the proceeding, Judge Blackbu. n was chief in i', as he did mote of Jie "mon keying," (whatever that choice word may mean,)than any one else. The whole article of the Herald was written in that dramatic style as though something clandestivcly revolutionary was going on. "They pro' ceeded to take the ballots from the clerk," says that paper with a half hidden innunen do that force was used to get possession of them. The "editor of the De.mocrat"w.-s not present when Judge Blackburn obluined the ballots in the clerk's omce,but ft is easy to imagine the affable manner with which he asked permission of the clerk to take the ballots to the County Judge's room, and to see politeness scintillating from every point of the clerk's physiognomy as he granted the privilege. The Herald man talks as e i expert about "monkeying business," and it is evident that no man is better qualified both by nature and habit to exoatiate upon the business than he. The effort of the Herald to connect the "edi.or of the Dkm ocrat" with instigating the recount 'a characteristic of him. We had no mote to do in instigating that recount than the Herald man had. SMALL SENATORIAL POLITICS. The Senate Committee has agreed o re port Melville W. fuller's n-Tnc to the Sen ate without any recommendation ei'hc favo-ing his confirmrtion o - reommend injj his r'i'cc.ion as Chief-Jrs "ce c" the Uni.ed Slates.

Fuller an impropcrand und'.i able p: to fill the highest judic'al ofli.-e in 'he le- public they would be derelict indo'y and fal:2 to their oaths in failingto recommend his rejec ion. Genereal Ben Harrison's argument for the Republican policy of e-.trac.ing r-H the revenues from the waj,cs of labor by laying taxes on the workinj, man's clothe and o. ti er necesaries, instead of laying them on the incomes of piillipnarics monopolies and toll-taking col point ions, Is thils quoted f -oni one of his speeches by one of his sii;i,o.t ers : "I cannot find myself in synipal.iy with this demand for cheaper coats, w hich seems to me necessarily to involve a chcip er man under the coat." General Ha-ri-son's theory Is that labor is e'evated and benefited by indirectly ta::ing its wages, but every kax on the income of the invest ed capital of the multi-millionaires, who have to go to Europe to spend their sur plus, he denounced and opposes as confis cation or communism. The adoption by the Republicans of the Americans flag, in handkerchief form' as a set-off for the old bandana, may be rcsen cd, and with good effect. Already veu may hear the celebrated order of General Dix paraphrased and the use of the Stars and Stripes as a handkerchief rcproha ed In the words : "If any man dares to blow his nose on the American flag, smash him on the snoot." It is not elegant lnrgusgc, but indicates a readiness to defend the use of the bandana and check the use of the American flag for a similar purpose. It has been nearly si weeks since Ore gon went republican, and yet the blessed advance in the price of wool that was to fol low a republican victory has with stupen dous stuliborncss failed to materalize.
