"We are not upon it,"

ScRATCHING-Wa INDUCED in by the
free and independent voters of Linn to
unlimited extent on Monday. One man
voted for Geo. Il. Helm, scratching the
balance Of the ticket, others divided
their vote aud voted half Of each ticket.
Trading was INDUCED in to greater ex-
tent than we ever saw before. Republi
cans traded of J dees Boise and Powell
to such reckless extent, that both gen
tlcmen ran far behind the ticket and are
doubtless defeated This was done through
no dislike to Boise, but through the belief
that his election was certain and they
could trade ON him with impunity As
to the county Offices, had Republicans
voted the straight ticket, making no
trades, we could have elected the County
Clerk and Judge. through the help of
disaffccted Democrats. with ease. Demo-
Gratis who had promised to vote with US
for those offices, made as an excuse for
not making their word good. Repab-
licaus are scratching their own ticket"
But, to their honor be it said, Democrdrs
generally kept their word, aud not only
voted portion Of our ticket but done
what they could for its success Regret
is expressed, after the work is done, al
the defeat OF Judge Boise-it was entire.
ly unexpected, and takes all by surprise
From it we may learn this le-son-when-
ever you commence the ts scratching .
and trading off " business. you thor
oughly delnoraize the party aud the en-
cmy gains Oh the whole ticket. OF the
two evils trading" is the most to be
deprecated. Scratch" if you will, but
never trade. We were in hopes that d
different result would follow in Linn
county We did hope to elect portion oi
our county ticket, and greatly reduce the
Democratic majority on the State ticket,
but if you have tears to shed, prepare
to she'd them now" Selah

FesTIvAL-The ladies connected with

FEsTIvAL.-The ladies connected with
the NJ. E. Church projected a Festival,
on Friday night of last week, which
proved very successful. As there we're
more provisions left after the Festival,
the ladies gave lunch on Saturday aud
as the provisions held out, the lunch ta-
BILE was kept loaded with good things
through Monday, until the larder was
exhausted. The profits arising from this
series of lunches amounted to between
eighty and one hundred dollars, and the
ladies deserve praise for the manner in
which the undertaking was carried
through. This money win go to put the
church in thorough repair.

SUcCEssFuL.-Latc dispatches an
nounee the re election of R. p Boise to
the judicial Bench of the Third Judicial
District. Owing to the trading INDUCED
in BY his friends, spoken of in another
place in this issue, he is elected by very
small majority. Indeed, on Tuesday the
election Of Judge Bunham, his opponent,
was pretty generally acceded This will
be good news to the political friends of
Judge Boise; aud even Democrats will
be better pleased in the election of Boise
than they would had Bonham succeeded,
and numbers have expressed them
selves in our hearing.

THE RIVER OF THE WEsT.-This is
decidedly the most entertaining volume
VIC have perused for some time. The
life and adventures of the celebrated
trapper and mountaineer, 10. Meek, SO
full of thrilling adventure. is fully por-
trayed, as well as condensed review of
the early history of the Pacific coast.
We consider tlis the most interesting
work that Mrs. Victor has yet produced,
and no one should fail to get it who can
read Mr. E. b. Purdom is agent for
the sale of the volume in Linn county.

FoURTH.-Whats say our citizens
shall we celebrate the coming Fourth
If We intend to celebrate immediate steps
should be taken in that direction. A
meeting of all interested in taking proper
measures for the celebration of America s
natal day, should be held at the Court
House this evening. We have but few
grand gala days, aud those few should be
properly observed. IF we are to celebrate
we cannot commence too soon. Let us
throw aside party feeling and prejudice
for once, and have a good, old fashioned
Fourth OF July celebration. 1t will do
US all good The cultivation of little
more soclablity will do US good as com
munity. The barriers OF prejudice have
been broken down by few kind words,
and whole communities made the happier
thereby Let US forget the prcjudices OF
early training and education, and unite
as the family of one great brotherhood in
an interchange of good feeling and fel-
lowship on the 4th of July, 1870. Will
you do it?

ELECTION DAY--Passed off quietly.
So far as we have heard, there was but
one tight in the the county, which was
regular ring fight" where the two men
stripped and went in to decide which had
the most muscle and endurance. The
fight occurred at Brownsville, between
two Democrats, and was caused 'by a
dispute in relation to horse race. The
day was intensely hot, and the principle
cussin, we heard was in regard to the
:" Oregon style" of voting, which COM
pells man to stand from one to three
hours awaiting his turn to vote IF the
incoming Legislature will attend to this
matter, they will receive the thanks OF
the voters of Oregon. Voting by ballot
is much more comfortable, expeditions
and satisfactory all round.
