OLYMPIA, SATURDAY MORNING. AUG. 13, 1870.
The Prospect of the Country and what
we Propose to Do about It.

There remains TO longer any doubt but
that our Territory is entering upon an era
of prosperity that will fulfill the expecta-
tons Of the most sanguine eff her people.
The thorough explorations that are now
being made by scientific men in the inter-
est of the Northern Pacific Railroad, have
attracted very general attention to the
Sound country. The increase of travel,
and the Frightening of business prospects
at all points on the Sound, indicates this.
During the past week, two ocean steamers
have arrived at our docks, bringing large
number Of passengers, many Of whom come
to settle here, and full cargoes of freight.
The California actually refused enough
freight at Portland for another cargo, and
We are informed that sufficient business has
been offered to justify the Haho in making
another trip to the Sound, and if the trade
continues as encouraging, she will be placed
permanently on the route All this activ-
ity indicates the beginning of healthy
growth, which will speedily develop our
Territory, and as Garfclde would say,
"cause the hum of industry to resound
where the church going bell finds an echo
in Tie hearts of God fearing people"
Believing this to be the auspicious time,
when every effort should he made to hasten
the prosperous era. when our citizens
should Invite enterprise by exhibiting
their faith in their works, We are pleased
to announce that we shall soon be enabled
to make the STANDARD just such paper
as the growing importance of our local and
Territorial interests requires. We have
completed arrangements by which Beriah
Brown. Esq, will hereafter write for our
paper, and aid in making it proper and
influential exponent of the interests of our
people. This shall be made the paramount
cejeet-an object in the advocacy of which
We trust We will have the sympathy and
SefPott va all pa!tles anu all CTeeus. In
about couple of weeks We expect to issue
the paper under these new auspices, and
We confidently expect a support from the
public which will Justify US in the increased
expenses Of publication. Mr.. Brown has
had upwards Of thirty years experience as
journalist, and ranks in ability second to
no public writer on the coast The proprie.
torship Of the paper will remain as it is,
and the general policy of the paper pre-
ciSely the same as heretofore. 1t is GU.
intention to make other improvements at
no distant day, and in all respects to keep
pace with the progress of the times.
We trust that our friends throughout
the Territory, and every man who seeks to
promote the common interests of all, will
lend us their aid in extending our circula.
ton, as the most effective means of hasten.
ing the good time coming"

THE WAR NEws.-It appears from the
European dispatches that Napoleon's star
is set. How the mighty have fallen, and
how sudden the prostration. Difficult it
is to realize that the proudcst monarch of
Europe should have so signally failed in
conflict of his own seeking. 1t is hardly
possible that he will be able to retrieve his
lost fortunes. We await the next move
with great interest.

Democratic Victories.

1t appears that the Democracy achieved
signal victory in Illinois on the % ult.
in the election of majority of the Jud ges
Of the Supreme Court Of that State, al.
though the telegraph has neglected, or We
have failed TO note, the fact AS the
judges are elected for nine years. this
gives the people of that State assurance
against the rcrnicious results of unre.
strained, unconstitutional legislation. which
has become so common under Radical rule.
The st. Paul Pioneer in abiding to this
victory, says:
This is not their only triumph in that
state. The new constitution Of Illinois was
framed 10y 4 Democratic convention. In
that body politics was not matter of con.
test. because the Democratic majority did
not ob.rudc partisan discussions. and did
not urge the reforms that they projected
as party measures. But the instrument
which they adopted in all its best features
is purely Democratic 1t ensures purity
in the legislature; itplaces effectual chains
on the railroad, warehouse, and other mo.
nopo!c>; it guards the State Treasury
from thieves and tax grabbcrs; it limits
the salaries Of public officers to reasonable
sums, and provides for the payment of all
official fees into the public treasury it re.
stricts the State debt to comparatively
small sum; it establishes minority repre-.
sen,ation, and it bears other marks of
Democratic parentage that are indelible
and unmistakable. This from State
that gave Grant fifty thousand, or sixty
thousand majority, prepares the way splcu-
dldiy for u series OF Democratic victories
in the future in purely political contests,
and when party lines will be sharply drawn.
The people of that State like those of
Minnesota, are strongly opposed to a
protective tariff, and they are beginning to
learn that they cannot secure its overthrow
by continuing the Radical party longer in
power.
In North Carolina, too, the Democracy
have triumphed, by the election of four of
the seven members from that State in the
next House of Representatives. This re-
suit is specially gratifying, as that State,
under the military rule to which she was
subjected, was regarded as one of the most
doubtful, and not included in the estimated
gains in the political complexion of the
next Congress. 1t will be remembered the
State was declared under martial law upon
some prctext, the object being to carry the
election, and it appears from the dispatch,
that the election was attended with riots
and blooashed," the natural sequence of
such display of despotic power. But
the people have triumphed.
The judicial election in Tennessee has
also gone Democratic, and Radicals carpet
baggers are tryngto invalidatc it.
The good work goes bravely on.
