The Strength of the DemOcracy-Where
Is it,

is it!
The Marysville Express and other haters
of Douglas are everlastingly talking OF the
seventeen Democratic States, which are OPP
posed they say) TO Douglas, as though the
remaining fifteen were not worth being
counted These Seventeen Democratic
States" $50 called by the Express and its
confreres), are the fifteen slave States and
the two free States of California and Oregon.
Well, now, we don't eoncede California to be
opposed to Douglas, for we all know full
well that the State was carried, in the last
campaign, b yvirtue of distinct recognition
of Douglas as a sound Democrat. But ad-
hitting that California is against him, still
how does the count stand? Douglas said, in
the Senate of the United States, when he
was accused by Davis and others of acting
against the Democratic majority in the Senate,
that he cared not for that, for he was supper
ted by vast majority of the Democratic
party of the Union. Let us see if he was
right or not. Granting that the seventeen
hlotOSi SlalhlSd ny bHc In press unu It's W
workers are against him, what is their Dem
ocratic strength, in Presidential contest
The Southern States polled, in 1856, lS,Sl9
Democratic votes. The Free States, exclu =
sive of California, polled 1872, ,O4S Democrat
ic votes, or nearly double the other
Where, then, does the Democratic strength
lie? What become of the seventeen
vaunted States in comparison with these fig
ures Add California to the Slave States
counted, with her Democratic vote, in 1856,
of 1886, and it leaves the vote of the Free
States larger than that Of the slave by 429,-
564. A subtraction of the vote of Oregon
from that number would still leave majori-
ty of hundreds of thousands in favor of the
| Democracy of those States admitted, by the
Administration papers, to be for Douglas
II, then, the strength of the Democratic party
to such an overwhelming degree, is to be
found in the Douglas States, we humbly con
ceive that this cant about the Seventeen
Democratic States" is worthy of mighty
little consideration.

ARRIVAL OF BILL.-Our dog Bill arrived,
yesterday, all safe and sound. He came pas
senger on the stage from Fosters Bar, under
charge of the polite driver, Mr. Lynch. 1t
didn't take him long to find the DEMOCRAT
office, after he got out of the stage, and he
came without stopping to get shaved or
shampooed. A little shaking Of himself got
him pretty well cleansed of the dust, and he
presented very respectable appearance
But in any style in which he could have
come, he would have been welcome He was
greeted on his arrival with one universal
shout from the compositorial fraternity.
while the door of the sanctum sanctorum,-
rare circumstance, was thrown wide open
for his admission. Bill wagged his tail until
it was numb, and his eyes spoke volumes. 1t
was some time before the excitement subsi-
ded, but it did finally, and ended in a calm
feeling ofinward satisfaction all around the
office, in the knowledge that Bill was at
home and was happy.
Oar readers may be surprised at our max
ing so much fuss over dog, but the fact is.
Bill Is one Of those rare CANNES that have al
most human sense, and the like of which are
not whelPed into this breathing world once
in thousand years.
P. S.-Bill brought along with him dis
patch in writing, explanatory of the circum,
stance that he had not arrived sooner. and he
seemed to be aware that the document con
tanned matter appertaining to himself

ALLEGED MURDERs.-Some person who does
not give his name, but says it can be had if
necessary, has lately arrived in San Francisco
from Humboldt Bay, and publishes a COM
munication in the Bulletin, in which he says:
Some time in February last, man named
L., who has stock ranch on Van Dusen
river, had an Indian boy, whose family lived
whiting half a mile of Humboldt BaV. LIS
boy would occasionally run off to visit his
relations This incensed L. so much. that he
went down one morning and slaughtered the
whole famlly-of about six persons-boy and
ALL He then mada a raft of logs. nut the
victims on it, marked it to w. II. Mills-who
was known to be opposed to indscriminate
slaughter of the Indians-and started the
bodies down the river.
Messrs. n ell and Hood, two good men. who
have stock ranch on the outside and adioin
ing L., had about their premises, 70. the last
two years, an old Indian called Ukillaboy.
lie acted as faithful guardian to the ranch,
always giving timely warning of the ap-
proach of theving Indians, and always being
ready to assist in tracking them up, while he
was ready to assist about the place, to the
best of his abilities. Well about the 26th of
April last, the old Indian, feeling perfectly
secure, paid L. friendly visit, and was inn
mediately lied up and shot in cold blood
without any explanation This so incensed
MIR. Neil, that he drove off his cattle to the
Matole, leaving L. on the outside; since
which time the Indians have literally feasted
on LIS cattle
All of the bucks who formerly lived around
Eureka with their families, having ties that
han.,d than, 20 tho hog, aud tho saftlarnants
here, have dispersed to the mountains, and
are now seeking vengeance as thieves. for
| their kindred slain 1t will cost not less than
half a million dollars to dislodee the 500
theving Indians from the Bald Hills. Men
who detest and abhor the thugging system,
from circumstances which surround them, are
silent. Two or three men who were on the
last Grand Jury which sat at Eureka, were
Thugs.
The man L. is the same person who boast
ed OF having killed sirty infants with his
own hatchet at the different slaughter
grounds. Thisis the same man who peddled
whisky to the United States soldiers and the
Indians not Is months ago, and on the same
ground that is now annoyed by the thieving
sayages. The Indians, since the recent grand
massacre at Eur .ka, have done damage to L.
OF not less than $1,000; in fact, he will be
compelled to leave for some other range for
his stock.

OF some of the attrocious deeds that have re-
Gently been perpetrated in Humboldt county.

several other smaller amounts The diggings

and rockers are generally used The miners
make from two to six dollars per day A
good many have gone there from San Ber-
nardino, and general furor is pervading that
locality about the mines The Star also saws
that discoveries are being made which ex-
