we say he has not met the issue. One posi-

teaches the dogma of universal salvation
Mr.. Fry does not deny this but admits it,

Bible. We shall not debate this question
with him. It is not in issue lcgitimqtely,

discussion of this, or any other question for.

The Oregon city Enterprise.

The editor of this Radical sheet has some
thing derogatOry to say of us in a late num-
Der. we know oil about this brindle-h haired
genius. He is now a ranting, r~ed.mouthed,
blatant Radical, although prOfesscdly pub
fishing a neutral paper and under the Gov
er ofnsutrality he advocates the radical pro-
gramme with whatever ability he possesses.
Yet we can prove that he published, on this
coast, notmany moons ago, q ''copperhead"
paper. About q year ago, when we were
starting the Herald, he SEN a friend to US,
more than once, and through him sought the
position of local reporter alledging that,
though at work for PittOck, he was as true a
Democrat as could be scared up, and that he
was working on the 0regonian to obtain his
bread and butter. We refused to employ
him because first, we doubted his democracy,
and second, because we did not deem him fit
for the position. One thing we disliked in
him was his peachdnt for nosipg round and
prying into affairs that did not eonssrn the
public and then giving them publicity.
This red-headed, brandy-soaked specimen
Of humanity was, q few moons ago, very hos
tile to ~mOnOpOlies, particularly the Ocean
Steamship Company. Yet he now favors
one, with all his limited ability, not a whit
better. Is it because he has been bought
over? Some time last spring or summer he

on the Ocean Company, that one of the cap

one of the wharves Of Portland. He made
no attempt at resistanee-although he had
every chance to do so-but, picking himself
up, he ~ferociously seized his a and

tee of the affair, at the time, and ever since
he has detained US whenever he had anything
like a fair pretext for so doing.
This cowardly scoundrel has something to

of Christianity. But this white-Iiyered libel

At . recent session of the County Com
mssioners OF this County, the Whitcomb
voting Precinct was abolished, thus com
pelIiug the voters ia that Precinct to conc
TO Brookville TO vote, as they formerly
did. We can assign but one reason for
this, and that Is, the voters of that Pre-
c;nct almost unanimously vote the Union
Ticket. BY abolishing the Precinct, il is
no doubt supposed by the Democracy that
many will fail to como to Brookvillc to
vote, on account of the great distance; and
as the East Fork is unbridged, the voters
OF that entire Precinct would likely be
ursLie to vote in case Of high waters.
We hope that not one Of the Union men,
Of whitcomb Precinct will fail to come

They adopted platform Of plaiitudes, Of
which The following will be found to be

always have been, are in favor of restoring
slavery in this country, but if that can't be
done then for the Government to pay our
friends for the loss Of all their slaves.
3D.. That the Democracy of Ohio arc
in favor as they have always been, of grant.
ing pensions to the widows and orphans Of
the confederate soldiers.
4ih. That the Democracy Of Ohio arc
10 favor, as they always have been, Of the
right of secession.

they have lately discovered aud fer fear
they may be misunderstood, are in favor OF

Paying the Public Debt in eroeubsoks

The Copperheads Of Indiana and Obi,
profess to be in favor OF paying the public
debt In grcenbacks, but their style OF pay
mcnt is to set the printing presses in mo.
ton and strike of greenback currency to
an amount cqualing the bonds, and say 70
our creditors, at home. aud in Europe
"Take this or nothing" They know that
such an issue Of greepbacks would be
comparatively worthless, because IL would
be impossible for the Government, under
the most oppressive taxation possible, to
redeem them in ten years.
We propose that the Government shall
apply all its surplus Of greenbacks to the
redemption of the public debt, by giving
our creditors the option Of accepting them
for their bonds. Moro than $500 900, 600
could be redeemed now in that way. if the
Secretary of the Treasury would, or could
make the offer. Is not this plan perfera.

THE ELECTION.

: Let IL be remembered that next Tuesday
Is the day Of election, and It is expected
that every man will do his duty. Though
our ticket Is small. Ii is an important one,
Some may say that We caunot carry the
election any way. and it is useless to try.
This is not the propersPirit; 1t Is bad poll
cy, aud not right in principle. No true
man will fail to do his duty through fear
that success will not crown his efforts
Let no Union man stay away from the
polls on next Tuesday for any such frivo-
lous reasons. Our cause is the Same now,
and no less just than thatfought for during
the rebellion, and IL is as much our duty
toyotc to maintain II as II was to 6ght to
gain Il. Had the loyal people folded
their arms and given up when dark clouds
lowered over and around them as they did
oiten during the rebellion, We would not

defeated In tho field, they hope to finally

pect Of success as there has been for
number Of years, but We do not wish to
urge that as reason for voting We
urge il as duty. We believe our cause
l. just and noble one, and that It is
duty to vote for it. The question as to
whether or not we will succeed. need not
be discussed. Let our duty be done, no
matter what the result may be.
We have worthy men on our ticket,
which the enemy have not; and in voting
for such men as compose our ticket, We not
only support our political cause, but a:
the same time sustain the cause of morali-
