1t has turned out as we surmised some
time ago in regard to the management of
the election in Wasco county. The Dem
ocrats had every judge aud clerk of elcc
tion in the county. They were prede-
ternlined to use their power, and did use
it. First, they refused on the most
trivial and unfounded pretext to receive
votes. Men were ruled out who had the
most undoubted, lawful right to vote No
Republican was allowed to be inside
where the votes were received, anAz after
the polls were cl sed the canvassers delib-
erately threw out large number Of votes
This was the manner in which the s.elec-
tion was conducted Persons who
were at the Dales on that day state that
the Republicans would not have been al.
lowed to carry the county if there had
been two hundred more Of them who
we've legally entitled to vote. They who
| = managed " the thing were resolved to
succeed in their purposes at all hazards.
We shall be much mistaken if a Con
gresham or Senator. x elected " by a
fraud of this description. will ever obtain
the seats they covet - Ore3oniaa.

The committee of Congress on Re
trenchment has discovered that during
our civil war, and while we were assisting
the Mexican Government to drive away
its foreign invaders, that same Mexican
Government was carrying on systematic
plan of smuggling goods to and fro along
the border, taking cotton into Mexico and
in return supplying the Confederates with
arms and ammunition. There has been
great deal of false sympathy wasted on
this SO called Republic of Mexico" and
the good turns done, them By our people
have bean repaid with evil. People who
have returned from residence in Mexi-
co, declare that the people of that coun-
try manifest their hostility to Americans
whenever opportunity offers. Uncle Sam
will have to teach them one more lesson,
which will prove lasting one.

it is the opinion of this Institute, that Il ne
clause in the school law, requiring Teach
efs TO give public examinations on the
last days Of each quarter, and inviting
the County School SUPERINTENDENT TO be
present should be abolished Res0ired,
That the school law should be so amend
ed, as to nuke it the duty of the directors
of schoo, districts, TO levy such tax upon
the property oil their districts, as may be
necessary to enable them to make such
provision for schools and school houses,
as is now required by the law Resol0ed,
That the readin" OF the Bible should not
be prohibited in our common schools

The Chevalier ship canal project, for
constructing canal through the Isthmus
of Darien, is likely to meet with a back
set. It appears that the United States
Government has a prior franchise from
Nicaragua, obtained by treaty signed
by Dir. Seward in 1867, and one which
the Niearaguans could not sell second
time. This is the only franchise worth
having in their dominions and they ap-
pea- determined to make the most of it,
By selling it over aud over again to who
ever will purchase. The Chevalier sale
is said to be the fourth one on record.
