This issue Of the STANDARD commences
the eleventh volume. It has now been
published by the same publisher for ten
successive years, without the omission Of a

any less than a full sheet. 1t is now by
far the oldest newspaper in Washington
Territory, and with single exception, the
oldest north Of California upon the Pacific
coast. Prom first to last the STANDARD

in view of the Immediately impending
growth Of the Territory in population and
business, it is the determination of the pub
Usher to keep the paper fully up to the
public requirements as news and business

The October Elections.

The news at first Of the October cleo.
tons in Ohio, Pennsylvania and Indiana,
says the New York Herald, seemed more
favorable to the Republicans than the latest
and more complete returns of the vote
show. 1t now appears that the Democrats
have gained in all these States, not largely,
it is true, in the total popular vote over
the previous corresponding election, but
still their gain is positive and important
The State of Ohio remains Republican,
though the Democrats claim to have elect.
cd two members of Congress more than
they have at prcsent-the Congressional
delegation being now fourteen Republicans
and five Democrats, and in the next Con-
gress it will be twelve Republicans and
seven Democrats.
In Pennsylvania the Democrats claim to
have gained eight members Of Congress.
In the present House of Representatives
the Republicans have eighteen members
and the Democrats six. According to the
election returns thus far the former will
have ten and the latter fourteen in the next
Congress.
Indiana is now represented by seven
Republicans and four Democrats. The
election has reversed that, and she will
have seven Democrats to four Republicans
next Congress.
So that appears the total gain in three
States is thirteen Representatives, making
a difference in the balance of the two par.
ties in the next Congress Of twenty-six
votes. 1t seems, too, that the newly elect.
ed Legislature of Indiana will have De-
mocratic majority of some six to eight votes
on joint ballot, which will ensure, probably,
the election Of Democrat to the United
States Senate. These are the facts as far
as the election returns show up to this
time, and they are pretty complete. 1t is
but fair to say, also, that these Democratic
gains have been obtained in spite of the
increased strength of the Republican party
from the recently enfranchised negroes.

Too Late.

The Oregon Republican, which adhered
to the Republican party in all its ;nuova-
tions upon the Constitution and revolutions
ary measures against the essential princi-
pies Of republican government, has finally
awakened to the inevitable fact that the
policy Of its party can only.rcsult in the
destruction of the Government. 1t says:
We firmly believe that the principle of uni
versal suffrage would have a direct tendency
to destroy our present form of government, as
the doctrine of State supremacy and peaceable
secession.
And again:
We repeat, then, that the line of race is the
only just and equitable line that can be drawn,
and there is no escape from this conclusion
This is the only way by which we can maintain
order in society situated like ours.
What does the editor of the Republican
now propose to do about it? Like thou
sands Of others he has subordinated coun-
try to party, and supported measures which
he knew would be fatal to repubhcanism if
persisted in to their logical con .lusion, and
he aud they have all the while protested
that they would not do this while they
were doing it. At every stage of these
proceedings we have heard these men de-.
clare that they would never support such
and such measures, and we have subse-
quently seen them eating their own words
and stultifying their professions under the
dictition Of Congressional cabal. They
would not support the war for the abolition
of slavery, but they did. They would ne
yer consent to the subjugation Of the South
and the abrogation Of the State Govern.
ments, but they did. They would posi-.
lively never consent to the enfranchisemeut
OF the negro, but they did And finally.
they declare that they will never, no never,
consent to Chinese naturalization, but they
will, if they do not embrace the only other
siternative-co-operation with the Demo.
cratic party.
IF negro suffrage is right in principle,
sod naturalization of Africans is right.
what logic or justice is there 10 excluding
the Chinese residents from the same priv.
ileges? The party is fully committed to
the principle in the Fifteenth Amendment.
which makes citizens of an Cinnamon born
in the United States, and the privilege of
naturalization is as certain to be conferred
upon Chinese immigrants as the Republi-
can party is to have another four years'
lease Of power. That party found it neces-
ssry to 60 into the last Presidential contest
upon the explicit pledge Of no Congress.
ional Interference with the right Of suffrage
in the adhering States and among the frs,
fruits Of fts success was palpable violation
Of this pledge. The question Of Chinese
sufage is manifestly held ia abeyance for
. like purpose Of deception add fraud. On
vhat other hypothesis can be explained
The last amendment to the naturalization
hvs-vhich eonfers the right of na,urali-
satiea spoa the immigrant or import from
Affiaa, and excludes the China psn-usder

ures ever received the approval of the
popular judgmcnt, tu, have oil been forced

suffrage. Of finance, or Of protective tariff
from party politics; submit each to a pop.
ular vote, free from all party commitments,
and there is scarcely a county in the United
States, outside of New England, in which
majority Of the electors would endorse

PORTLAND PoLICE.-The Legislature
Of Oregon passed an act creating police
commission for Portland, and the Governor
appointed A. b. Hallock, William p. Burk
aud j. IL Hayden Police Commissioners
under the act. James III. Lappeus is
to be Chief Of Police While VIC recognize
this as decided improvement upon the
present police management in tina, city.
We fail to understand the principle which
justifes Democratic Legislature in as
Stunning control over the municipal author
tiles in the matter of police regulations.
We know it has been done in New York
and St. Louis, but on those occasions the
Democrats unanimously protested against
the principle a. an an,i'republican Invasion
Of municipal independence which is the
sole guarantee of personal liberty. What.
ever may have been the motive for this
questionable exercise Of State power, the
Democratic party cannot afford TO s,ultify
all its previous professions BY following a
Radical precedent upon question vital
to the principle Of republican rovernmcas.

yer, about year and a alfago. 1t falsely
charges Coffee with shooting an unarmed
man in the back" and represents the act
as "the most cowardly ever perpetrated
within the limits of the Territory" Our
readers generally will recollect the circum-
stances attending the shooting. Coffey
was in company with his brother.in.law,
Lewis Vanvlcet, returning from Demo-
cratic Convention, when the party were
met at the steamboat landing in Vancouver,
by Fletcher and his two sons, with the
publicly avowcd purpose of whipping Van
vlcet at sight. The attack was made by
Fletcher and a general melee ensucd, the
Vanvlcet party being on the defensive, in
which Fletcher received wound from the
pistol of Coffey. The quarrel originating
in party politics, on the eve Of an exciting
election, of course party feeling entered
largely into the trial of the case; yet there
were very few Of the more reasonable men
of either party who were not astonishcd at
the verdict under the circumstances a
citizen of the highest social position and
moral standing, forced into the position of
defending near relative against lawlcss
assault by a superior force, was for that
act tried and convicted of an infamous
crime and sentenced to an ignomnious
punishment! The injustice Of this verdict
was SO manifest that the leading citizens
of the county, without distinction of party,
Immediately and almost unanimously Joined
in petition for Executive clemency in
behalf of the prisoner. Governor Solomon,
being stranger to most of the petitioners
and not knowing personally of the merits Of
the case, delayed decision until he had
an opportunity to visit Vancouver and iu-
vestigatc the matter. This he did, and we
believe he granted the pardon with full
conviction Of the Righteousness of the act,
actuatcd by sentiments and considerations
which do honor to the head and heart of
the man. 1t is evident to any close obser.
yer of passing events that this act of the
Governor is not the cause, but the pretcxt,
for an assault intended to impair his party
standing and influence. lie can see the
fordshadowing of his political fate not only
in this open assault Of Garfelde organ,
but in the avidity with which the neutral
papers of Radical proclivities seize upon
every triac calculated to cast odium upon
himself and his nativity, and the covert
mutterings of the Puritan and Know Moth.
