had much to do in bringing about cur psrseni
trouLles- We believe that to-day We are on
the popular side. We believe that we are on
the side Of Mr. Lincoln and the Union. We
believe furthermore that there is nothing in
the Presidents record to warrant suspicion
that he was disposed TO interfere with the
rights Of States until the exigencies of war
compelled him SO to do. In proof Of our as
sertion. we have only to request these gentle
men to call to mind the fact Of annulling by
the President the proclanations Of Fremont
aud Hunter, and the removal Of several Gen.
erals from department where their presence
was offensive to the Union or conservative
sentiment, or where it appeared that their
acts had been oppressive. 1t is evident
to all sensible men that lis extreme measures
We're wrung from him BY those upon whom
they fell with all their blghting force.
We say. let US unite. Lot there be, how
ever, no Paul Prys or ciques in our camp.
In conclusion, We say once for all, we are
glad the Constitution allows Congress and the
President, in this emergency to abolish sys-
tenn which has ever been source of untold
evil in our land, system which has corrupted
for almost century tho public service in a.
most every department Of the Government,
and has tainted the political atmosphere ever
since the formation Of the Republic. ,-...
u The Democrat deals our contemporary
on the hill rap for publishing news taken
from the Ovegonian as " Special Dispatches"
to the P. Tribune. At the risk Of being de-
nounced as coppery. We must concur" We
have observed the peculiarly" but never
deemed such transparent deception as worthy
Of notice from US. While there are "tricks
in all trades" we are not inclined to deny our
friends resort to them whenever they please,
knowing as W. do how anxious they are to
convince people Of their enterprise" The
Democrat must remember that the gentleman
who is supposed to preside over the organ"
has but recently made his appearance in the
wilds.of our Territory. fresh from the land Of
azure abdomens, and Of course knows more
about the conduct Of newspaper than any Of
US. This is likewise true Of a few who con.
tribute to that "privy purse" Probably our
ideas Of honesty are rather Puritanical; but
we cannot look with favor upon the plan Of
placing as the head Of = column the glazing
capitals. especial Dispatches" and after
giving about quarter Of q column which is
really paid for, to copy from two to three COL
umns from exchanges. leaving the uuinitiated
to infer that It ill came "over tho wires"-
not facetiously but literally. Nobody has
ever been asked to contribute one dime to-
wards paying for our dispatches. We are
not upon the town" yet, and hope We may
never be 20 rednced. - t. f... D. B..
