THE CONVENTION.

The Democratic Convention completed its
session at noon on Thursday. Its proceed
ings will be read with more. than ordinary
interest. The platform certainly does moi,
possess the merit of brcvity. As much
might have been said in less space, yet it is
very clear and emphatic enunciation of
Democratic doctrines, and will not disap.
point the expectations Of the party.
The ticket is one of the very best ever
submitted to the people of Oregon. Mr..
Slater has an extended and favorable nc
quaintance in the Willamette Valley, where
he once lived. lie holds high rank in his
profession ; is a plain, practical man ; a close
thinker, logical reasoner, an industrious
worker, and in NIL that he undertakes an
EARNEST and an homes. man. lie received u
very flattering evidence Of the attachment OF
Eastern Oregon for him, having received the
united support of that section for Congress.
Not the least gratifying circumstance, to the
newspaper fraternity, connected with his
nomination. is the fact that he is an old
newspaper man. The line of promotion, in
politics, can scarcely be said to he open to
printers and editors, and members of these
branches will derive peculiar qualification
to note the selection of man once of their
number for place on the State ticket.
Mr. l.. +. Grover, the candidate for Gov
ernor, is one of the most, if not the mos,
popularity known man in Oregon to-day. lie
is man of scholarly attainments and ripe
experience. It can be said of Mr.. Grover,
that he will not only be an excellent candid
ate, but an excellent officer. With the greatest
dc ference to Ex-Gov. Whitaker, who filled
the Office with such honor to himself and sat
isfaction TO the people, Mr.. Grover com
bines in more eminent degree all the quail
itics necessary TO the Office than any man
who has ever filed it. No better evidence
could be given Of the great good
sense and patriotic purposes of the Conyen.
ton, than was given in his selection. III
was Oregon's first Representative in Con.
gress; nc will be her second Governor.
Dir. Chadwick is universally esteemed
within the circle of an acquaintance wider
than the limits of tbs State. lie is prnp
er man tor any place within the g.ft of The
people, and was the choice Of three Suutlicrr
counties for Congress. Mr. Flcischner is 6
prosperous merchant of Portland. Ills Sc
lection is a deserved compliment to financial
ability and business integrity. Mr. Pa;ter
son of the Herald is entitled % the credit
sinsularly enough, ofhaving carried his nom
ination in spite of the opposition of major
itY Of the Multnomah delegation. lie is {
book-keeper by profession. and is one Of tbs
prnprietors of the Herald, which paper owe,
much of its success and present prosperou,
condition TO his efforts.
With this platform and this ticket the
battle will not be hard nor the issue doubt
full. There is in store for our opponents ar
utter route, for ourselves an easy victory.

p PAIN KILLER.

after thorough trial ny innumcrable living wit
nesscs, has proved itself THE MEDICINE OF THE
ACE. 1t is an internal and external remedy. One
positive proof of its efficacy is, that its sales have
constantly increased, and wholly upon its own
merits. The effect of the Pain Killer upon the pa
tient when taken internally in of Cold Cough,
Bowel Complaints, Cholera, Dysentery and other
affections of the system has been truly wonderful,
and has for il name among medical prePa-
rations that never be forgotten. It's success
in removing pain, as an external remedy in eases
of Hurns Bruises, Sores, Sprains, Cuts, Stings of
Insects, and other Of suffering, has secured
for it such host of testimony. an almost in
fallabie remedy, that it will be handed down to
posierity of the greatest medical discoveries
of the 10th century. n2Sw4
