terto Marry Against Her WILL.
The community was startled and horrlfied
yesterday bya report that Thomas II. Irvine,
a farmer OF this county, and for many years
president of the Richmond Stage Company,
had attempted to force his daughter, a hand.
some and sprightly little girl. some fourteen
20 airs ofage, to marry q young man by the
name Of Broadwell Keith, and she persistinp
In refusal, he held pistol to her head and
allowed Keith to lavish caresses on the an
| willing girl. Even then she would not con-
sent to marry him, and tho father shut her
up In room with keith, and told her that
"she would hn Id glad to marry him when
he had gotten through with her." She
made her escape from the room, and Keith
ran after her and brought her back to the
house, and Irvine locked her up In an upper
room. Her stepmother had gone to Mr..
Henry Bowman's, who lives near by, 10
escape her husbands cruelty, and the poor
little prisoner managed to send her, by q
negro woman, the following note, written
hastily on scrap Of paper;
"DEAR MA; For Gods sake, come home,
or send somebody here; for pa Is trying to
mako Broad. Keith sleep with mo. What
on earth will dot Please come or send
He will not let me come down stairs. Oh
what will | dot lam In the hands OF God
| until some one comes to help me, Please
oh, please send me some help! He has burst
the bolt of the door already"
Mrs. Irvine gave the note to Mr.. Bowman,
who Immediately went to her rescue, and
| seeing her at the window Of the room in
which she was confined placed ladder,
which happened to be at hand, and she came
down on 1t, and thus escaped the clutches OF
her unnatural father and an INSCRIPTIONS
lover. Mr.. Bowman brought her to town
and placed her at Captain Boards, where
she found protection and all the sympat hy
and tenderness which kind-hearted people
would naturally SHOW to one In her forlorn
condition. Warrants were issued for the ar
rest OF Irvine and Keith, and they were
brought to town by Deputy Sheriifs Gochrane
and Dldlako, and the trial set for yesterday
afternoon, but the hearing was postponed
till this morning at 0 o'clock. Irvine was
released on bail, but Keith was sent to jail
In default Of 5000 bail. There is great in
dignation In the community against Irvine
and Keith, and all felt that Iryine's offence
Is incompatible with sound mind. He has
been drinking great deal lately, and this
certainly has crazed him, for he has not
heretofore been an unkind father.-Cincin

THAT QUESTION OF REMOVAL.

The Statesman, In answer to our par
Agraph, asking that the State Fair be
changed to more central part of the
State, says:
The fact that Albany is above steamboat nav
IgatiOn makes Salem more central ut present, and
It would be poor policy to change the place for
holding the Fair each year. The place chosen
should be improved for the purpose, and a great
deal Of hotel room is needed in the near vicinity.
Those who go to the State Fair don't
generally go by the river. Probably
not more than one or two hundred,
principally Portlanders, do so. The
citizens of Southern and Central
Oregon can not possibly go any part of
the distance in another way than by
land.
1t Is not asked that the place for
holding the Fair be changed from
place to place each year. Has Salem
forgotten that the present Fair will be
the seventh, In succession, held there
The place chosen should be improv-
ed for the purpose, and if Linn county
does not make improvements equal to
what Salem has done, then we won't
ask change. And hotel room is de-
Eirable thing, but the number thus ac-
cOmmodated at Salem,-or for that
matter, that would be SO accommoda-
ted anywhere-is but an infinitely
small part of the crowds that visit
State Fairs. The multitude that spread
their tents upon the grounds adj
iacent to the Fair premises, are the
ones whose convenience ought to be
consulted. These are the patrons and
supporters of the Fair, and they do
not depend upon hotel accommoda-
tions either.
The state rights democrat. [volume] (Albany, Linn County, Oregon) 1865-1900, 1869-10-09
conmodit,

The Oregoaian continues to hold
forth in the interests of protective
tariff and cheap labor-wants every
thing high but wages. Horace Gree
ley is still drawing on to an indefinite
and tedious length his "essays," to
prove that those laws to keep people
from buying where they can buy
cheapest are just and statesmanlike.
And now comes the Salem Statesman
with a word for free trade and fair
wages:
at is not the money q man earns as wages
merely. il is the comfort he can command with it
that makes him satisfied. Il is the system that
will make the laboring man comfortable and inde-
pendent we should foster, not that which will
make the rich richer and the poor poorer. The
advocacy of the free trade is at present confined
TO no section and TO no party. It may result in .
reorganization Of all parties"
How is it that there is not unity
among these brethren. The Statesman
wants the laborer to earn sufficient
wages to make him comfortable and
independent. The Oregonion wants
him to earn Chinaman's wages-that
will bring his mind and body to the
degradation and enslavement of the
Chinese laborer?
o, the consistency and the honesty
of these radical politiciansl A pro-
tective tariff to keep up prices
Chinese immigration to reduce wages
there is platform upon which they
invite the people of the Pacific States.
What motive can induce men to sup
port it. What inducement can move
the Statesman who talks against it, to
vote, and ask others to vote for it
Can you expect man to be comforta-
BILE and independent-to become a
contented and useful member of soci-
ETY.. when you make him pay protect
i've and revenue tariff prices and Work
for Chinaman's wages ?-when one
days work only pays for one days
rent, in O respectable tenement, or for
one-fourth of pound of tea which
has paid the tariff? Cheap labor is
and always was the attendant of de-
graduation and slavery. The most de.
sirable condition of society is that
which gives most largely of the neces-
sites and comforts of life in exchange
for labor. AS you decrease the value
of the mans services, in that proper
ton you take away his manhood. The
Statesman has spoken the truth; why
does not the Orego1aia,a speak it?

pellant; and Mulky, appellant, rs.

questionsin these two cases were ident-
cal. III. Kalla and Mulkey brought
damage suits against their respective
counties for injuries received by reason
of defective bridges in the public high
way. Held that county is RESPONSE
bio for damages sustained by reason
Of defective bridges, when it is appa-
rent that the County Court had been
negligent about repairing the same.
The fact of negligence isa question for
the jury. The County, and not the
Supervisor, is liable for injuries sus-
tanned. The County may post notices
warning the public of the dangerous
character of the public highway, which
viii convey such intelligence to the
traveller as will Bar him from recover
ing damages for any injuries sustained
by passing over the dangerous bridge.
The case from Multnomah county was
sustained and the one from Benton
county reversed.

An evangelical christian named
James Campbell, hailing from the
progressive domain of New England,
has published work defending polyg-
ANY, This is about the newest thing
Upon an old subject out-if we except
Geo. Francis Trains recent rattle in
behalf of the religion of the Latter Day
Saints.
Mr.. Campbell says that Polygamy
was tho normal and universally per-
mitted condition of the days of the
Old Testament, and that the polyga-
mists were the holiest of men. He
stoutly charges that monogamy is the
relic of barbarism, and that polygamy
is the proper and civilizing institution.
And Mr.. Campbell is meeting with a
reception that is not little surprising in
these enlightened and ndprogressive days.
This book is not likely to make q revolu-
ton, and derives no Importance from the
possibility of such an influence. New
theless it is q little curious, and shows
the existence of startling ideas in most
improbable places.
Since We are to have q population
from Asia, it may not be altogether
reasonable to expect to escape from
the civilization of Asia. Her extremes
in the pursuit of opposite courses, are
meeting between New York and San
Francisco. Idolatry assails us in the
front-polygamy in the rear. The
material that these ideas command is
not despicable by any manner oi
means, and very few centuries may
disappoint the anticipation of the
wisest men of these days. The coun.
try that built the great wall, that del,
uged Europe with her cast off people
has In its numbers an argument thai
may overcome the incest philosophy
and the profoundest reasoning. A sin.
gular short-sightedness seems to pre-
vail concerning the Chinese problem
But few men consider the character oi
those people and their fabulous mum.
bers-one-fourth of whom, if turned
loose within our limits, could trample
out the civilization of this country and
transfix it, as Asia has been for ages
transfxed. with superstition and des
pOtism. But things don't happen il
that way. The rust does not eat away
the polished steel in day. Time is like
~ to become great deal older thar
now, and though the people now living
will suffer from the intrusion of The
swarms from Asia, yet It may be man.
generations hence before the crownins
features of Chinese intercourse ar,
realized The temple of the Mormon
may yet give place to the Joss Hous'
of the Pagan, and the polygamy ofth'
Latter Day Saints melt away like
mist before these people who make tn
virtue of their women a merchantabl
commodity.
