SCOTT VS. TtKKY.
8C0TT SqCIKsW.
Notwithstanding the humiliating re
buke which Harvey Scott drew down on
hit own head by hit inexcusably mean and
ltnarlihly dirty attack upon the democratic
party ,he still persists in repeating it, though
it is such as only cowards and slanderers
make. Blatherskite-like he attempts to
bring in a lot of rot that has no bearing
upon the subject. This man Scott at
tempts to hold the democratic paity
amenable for all the crimes and wicked
ness brought to the door of Terry. We
prove the utter fallaciousness of his logic
by making up the character of the repub
lican party from '.-.is character. As an ex
ample : When the"youthful indiscretions'
o! Senator Mitchell were brought to light
in 1873 and the moral element of the party
was put to shame on account of its hideous
nss, Scolty hastened to the republican
convention to be held in Albany ,and labor
ed with a zeal worthy of a decent cause to
induce that body to endorse Mitchell,
which it did. After this, not a prominent
leader in the party could be induced to
accept a nomination to congress.on account
of the humiliation, shame and disgrace
the party was put to by Scott's conduct.
Finally Hiram Smith was nominated, but
he was beaten overwhelmingly by a very
unpopular democrat. It would have been
m slanderous outrage upon the republican
party for any democrat to have said then
or now that Scott or eyen Mitchell was
then or U now a representative of the
methods, purposes and intentions of the
republican party, yet that would be the
inevitable conclusion of Scott's logic or
lack of logic. Every man who lived In
Oregon in 1S73 will remember the stupen
dous,who!esale frauds practiced that year
by Holladay to elect his ticket. Such bri
bery, corruption, intimidation and repeat
ing has never been known In the state.
Gibbs was U. S. district attorney .and such
was the wide-spread alarm created by the
manner of carrying the election that he
wis moved to make an attempt to prose
cute the guilty parties. At that time Scott
was cheek-by-jowl with Ben Holladay and
had been one of the chief managers io
electing Ben's ticket. Scott and his part
ners in the matter grew greatly alarmed
at Gibbs' attitude, and it was then that
Scott wrote the following letter : (We
repeat its publication by request.)
Portland, Feb. :6th, 1S74.
My Dear Sir : You will see that I have
been and still am making it warm for Deady.
I believe that if you and other friends of our
cause at Washington would acquaint Butler and
o her members of the house with these tremen
dous facts. Deady would be impeached. You
know that the Oregouian is constantly attack
ing Butler, and you know also that Deady is
tdiur of the Oregnian, Now if all these
facts were properly made use of we could scare
Deady, at least. What do you think about it?
All our friends here hope that somr thing will
be done 10 rid the bench of this "fleshliest in
cubus." Please show this to Mr Holladay.
Respectfully.
H W Scott,
And this is the man who seeks the
graves of such illustrious patriots and
statesmen as Jefferson, Madison, Jackson,
Monroe, Tllden, Hancock, Seymour, Mc
Clellan, Cleveland. Hendrltks and others,
and there pours out his slanderous venom
to appease his insstiable spirit of hate and
party prejudice
The State Democrat publishes Harvey
Scott's "fleshliest incubus" letter and then
adds : "On the other hand, some scraps of
past history, if truthfully told.would plain
ly show that Harvey was equally as perfi
dious to his friend Holladay as the above
letter conclusively proves that he has
treated Judge Deady. For instance.as It is
said, the little episode of Harvey's bank
account being enormously increased from
the corruption fund w hich, on the night
before the election, was lying piled up on a
table In Holladay's mansion. If all the
statements made In regard to It be true
Harvey Is a fit subject for the hotel
Downing, located one mile or so east of
here."
The Brownsville Times says.
"It should be the aim of every loyal citizen
to help the Government to exclude these land
monopolies, and if an agreement to the above
effect, were entered into there would be no
danger of any monopoly gaining possession oi
the land."
Our cotemporary seems to think that we
have two classes of citiiens a loyal and a dis
logal class. We have Lut one class all are
law abiding patriotic prcpte.

The Oregonia thinks that Mrs Maybiick

only an American woman; if she were a China

The Oregmim has defiled its columns
or a number of Issues with a lot of vene-
mous slime about the democratic party
that is a disgrace to decent journalism. It
seized hold of '.he circumstance of the
killing of Terry and rolled it as a sweet
morsal under its tongue. If no answer
had been made to Scott's slanders against
the democratic party he would have
straightway said they are true, for no one
dares deny them. Now that the Democrat
has not only answered his villainous false
hoods, but paralyzed him on his own
record, he flies into a towering passion,
ca'.ls names and says that because the
charges are denied that proves thai they
are true. Queer logic, but that is the kind j
Scotty deals in. Here is another sample:
If Teny represented the "mcthodj and
purposes" of the democratic party, then
Judge Field being a prominent and leading
democrat, is a part and parcel c f the dem
ocratic party, and according to Scotty is no
better man than Terry. Again, when
Terry was elected Judge of the Supreme
Court of Califoruia he was elected on the
Know Nothing ticket and belonged to the
same paity that Scotty did, and if belong
ing to a pa'ty makes him the representa
tive of its "methods and purposes," then
Scotty is no better man than Terry. "The
mountain was in labor and brought forth
a pismire, and so with the big bully that
runs the Ortgonia, and be his name
Nooks, ' or Stokes, or Stiles, or Scott, or
Shot, or Rot,or Pot, with a P,he has simp
ly written himself down an ass.
