H. Y. KIRKPATRICK. Editor - and - Proprietor. Cm ELECTION. Once again the City Election is ucar at band. On the 4th of De cember next the voters of the city will be called upon to choose their ofl'tcers for the next year. is cither the tantl nor the silver, tbe Chinese nor the Hawaiian ques tion, willindtiencethe voters. They will undoubtedly conduct this elec tion, as all elections should be con ducted, on strict business principles, giving their preference to the best men. At present the town seems to be peculiarly free from factions political and otherwise. This is as it should be. Past etperienue has convinced us ot the folly of i bringing into elections questions of i&tjuor and anti-hquor, church ani anti-church. The people, of this place at least, have more than once demonstrated the fact that they will not be dominated by petty act'.ons. Let men run on their merits for the offices, and hot upon their supposed preference for this or that faction; Let. "saints" and "sinners" vote for the best men whether the best man happens to he a "saint" or a "sinner,"- as the voters have more than once been christened. " The woods are full of candidates, uirt me candidates nave not yet cuiHiciently declared themselves for publication. The list will be given i:ater.

How disen chanted we become with the "dear Brother in Black' when we are asked to share our bed and board with him! In a private letter to a populist friend in Umatilla county, Gov yejnor I'ennover says: "Of course I am a populist; and as nine-tenths of the people of Oregon favor the same doctrines, they are populists, and it is therefore quite reasonable tu exiiect a sweeping populist vic tory in Oregon, if we only keep in the middle of the road."
