CONGRESSIONAL MOVEMENTS.

The opinion seems to be prevalent,
that nothing of importance will be done
by the present Congress. The late
Democratic successes have. checked the
forward movements of the more Radi-
cal members in the direction they were
running, and now they seem more
intent on watching the movements,
and specializing upon the probabilities
of still further success of the Democ
racy, than in legislating for the coun-
try The Democrats, being in the
minority, are not trying to accomplish
anything, further than to promote
their own partisan interests, and gain
political power. The Republicans
might, If so disposed, take steps that
would check the advance of the oppo-
sition, by judicious legislation on the
revenue, and other great questions
which are ngitating the country, but it
is hardly probable they win do it this
session. The Republican leaders seem
to rely for prestige chiefly on the rapid
isy with which the public debt is being
reduced, and the opposition are cndea-
vroing to make capital from this same
source, by taking the ground that this
is being done By oppressive taxation.
Both are maneuvering for the adsan-
tage in the coming Presidential cam
paign.

WE HOPE NOT.


The Oregon City Eatsrprise gives
publicity toa report that the Browns
ville and Elleudale Wooden Companies
were about to consolidate, and remove
their factories to Oregon City.
The people Of Polk county must BY
this time have learned by experience
the material advantages to be derived
from the manufacturing interests of the
country, and the disadvantage people
labor under when deprived of them !;
and it is to be hoped, in case move of
that nature is on foot, it will be
thwarted BY some move on the part of
Polk, ct least 20 far as the removal of
the Ellendale factory 10 concerned.
The people Of Brownsville and vicinity
are, of course, able, and should be
allowed without eensure TO do as they
please, but we certainly think the
people are acting against their own
interests, if they allow either of these
manufactures to leave their present
locations. m a8

To our Readers.

As we have remarked before, there
Is nothing which tends more to the SUBJ
etantiai benefit of town aud country,
than lively, energetic, local paper !;
and our desire il to publish one that
will come up.to fair standard among
country journals. In doing this, We
need the co operation Of all energetic,
stirring men.
We ask all residents in this county
especially, TO lend us aid in the matter.
and we promise to satisfy them, or not
demand of them to continue their
assistance. We would gladly receive
from anyone disposed to grant it, sub
scription for our paper; any advertis-
ing they may have to be done, and
also any Communications, which may
be Of general interest We have often
heard persons say, when speaking OF
incidents which had transpired in their
immediate locality, /" that if they could
write articles fit for publication. they
would make an effort to inform the
public through the press.
To such we would say, stop not on
any such pretext. II you have any
thing of general Importance, send it
along, and we will make note of it.
We have plenty of time to re.model
any article that may be furnished US,
if requested. In case any correspon-
dence be sent giving information on
any subject, and not requesting correc-
tion, we shall publish them verbatim, 1t
we publish ut all. We would request
all sending contributions to make them
brief and to the point.

hope it will not come out in such colos-

sphere of usefulness will also be ex-
tended; and We hope it may prove
itself equal to the task, and soon be
compelled TO give Us warning of anothes

.nfranchisement of the African wonld

acknowledgements of the African wonld
be but step towards the enfranchise-
ment Of the American Indian and oil
the more degaded nations that might
be flooded upon our shores. In this, as
in all other predictions, we End we..wero
not mistaken, for already we hear
the American Indian knocking for ad>
mission into the nations councils, and
Senators gravely discussing the feast
5bility of their admission. l4 !
We further predicted that start in
this direction would be followed up by
the prime movers Of the scheme, until
the Mongolian, as well as all others
would come 10 for their share Of the
spoils, and that there would be no
stopping until we reached the point
where all nations, regardless of nation
ality, should receive the full benefit of
the elective franchise. This prediction,
in common with the others, is in fair
way to be realized already are our
Senators canvassing that very question.
When these questions first arose, we
know we were blamed by many true
hearted Republicans for taking such q
stand, and were kindly told by them,
that we, in their Judgment, were mis-
taken. We. of course, valued their
esteem, and appreciated the kindness
which prompted them to warn us oi
the effect of onr course, but we felt sure
that the people would eventually como
to orr aid. And now, we see We were
no more mistaken in that than in the
other. The most radical press in the
country are coming out on President
Grant in harsher terms than ever ap
peared in the columns of the REPUBLI
CAN, and the people are clamoring fol
change in the policy of governmenta
affairs. In what respects we think the
people are disaffected, and the remedie.
therefor, We will speak at another time
MS our columns will not admit Of tot
long an article on one subject, however
mOmentous.

HOW ABSURD.


The following paragraph, taken from
the Charlton Democrat, has been copied
by quito q number Of the Democratic
papers Of Oregon, tostry to delude the
people into the belief that the Republi-
can papers who favored revenue
reform, are edging round to the Demo-
cratic party:
"Quite number of influential Rad
zeal papers are trying to founder around
to the Democratic party. They indicate
this disposition by coming out fairly and
souarely in favor of free trade. They
might just as well hoist the Democratic
standard at once. The only important
point now &C issue between the parties
is this one. The Democrats have advo-
Gated the cause of the people, and are
bound to triumph. The Republicans
have attempted defence of the odius
self-aggrandisement of New England,
and are bound to fail j" '5ss 5ssa'
Our Democratic friends seem to not
realize the fact that journal, as well
as o person, may advocate q reform in
the organization to which they belong,
| without thinking for q moment Of leav-
ing that organization. Let the policy
be adhered to, that when person
belongs to party, he must endorse any
| aud all measures which the leaders of
that organization may dictate, and that
| if the party to which he belongs adopt
any measures, no matter how obnoxious
they may be to him, he must aequiesce
Herewith without demur, then We have
lost the great prerogative which belongs
inherently to every American citizen;
and We might as we'll prepare for q
monarchy at once. The great object of
a public journal should be, TO discuss
oil great questions in which the people
in the aggregate are interested, fairly
and impartially, so that the people may
come to intelligent conclusions and to
think that because journal or an indi.
yidual tries to inaugurate measures of
reform, that il should Immediately go to
the opposition is the greatest absurdity

GRANTS INDIAN POLICY.
mOmentOuS

To show the feeling exhibited by
the Republican journals of the State ON
the Indian policy of the President, We
give the following from the Oregon
Bulletin of the 7th. inst, After COM
menting for o whole column on the
question, ii winds up with the follow
ing language:
But Of all modes which the Gov
erument has ever tried, we view the
present experiment of dividing the
Agencies among certain religious de-
nominations, with the recommendations
for appointments to come through the
high dignitaries or the controlling
Boards or Vestrymen of the respective
Churches, as the worst. Paradoxical
as It appears, we think that in Gov.
ernment like ours, any union Of Church
and State, or any attempt to ALLOW the
Churches to run the Government, will
result in running it into confusion and
final great disaster. It will be wiser to
correct the abuses in the old system.
and steer clear Of the shoals and dan,
gers which thickly beset the expert
ment now entered upon. Or, If there
must be change, make it complete
one, and transfer the Indian Bureau 10
the War Department exclusively"
The abuses referred to, as the Buiie-
tan explains in former part Of the
paragraph, are those more particularly
arising from the dishonesty Of agents
in the disposal of annuities granted to
the Indians, in such manner as to be
a source of profit to themselves, instead
of to the Indians. The Corvallis
Gazette, another acknowledged Repub.
lican journal, in commenting on the
Presidents Iadian policy, gives vent to
it's feelings thusly,:
"The sword and the pruning hook
seem to fidsh alternately through the
Presidents dream of Indian ciyiliza-
tion. Bnt we cannot agree with. his
latest idea. 1t is, to certain extent, a
wedding Of Church and State, and as
such must be looked upon by every
thoughtful citizen. The power of
church organization is rapidly advanc.
ing in the country, and America may
yet become the theater of religious
intolerance and sectarian insolence.
Already they control society, and pro-
nounce its potent DEGREES, and instances
of ambitious chnrchmen grasping for
political place are abundant every.
where. The day may come when,
instead af political parties, migaty
churches will wrestle for the reigns Of
Government, and then, too, will bring
an era of blood and wrong. History,
with bleeding feet, will retrace the
pathway Of the past"
Much more might be added to this
list to show the antagonism Of persons

From the reports of the meetings
held in Portland for the purpose Of
raising the 100000 demanded by
Mr.. Holladay for securing . terminus
of the West Side Railroad in the latter
CITY, we would judge the people Of the
would-be>centcr to be very indifferent
on the subject. Oh course it is not for
us Gas the Buletin saysJ to urge the
residents there to prompt action in this
matter, and We do moi. propose to do it,
for the reason that VIC think there are
other points more directly on the nat>
ural channels OF trade which would
suit our convenience better, even than
Portland.
There is no doubt but the West Side
Road will be built, and it will suit the
people of the West Side counties better,
and not cost the Company any more, to
EFnn the road to some point on the CO.
lumbia River than to Portland and
that will save onr neighbors there the
trouble Of sending their small steamers

THIRD PARTY MOVES.

Much has been said by the journals
of our State concerning athird political
party for the next campaign. but no
definite conclusions have been reached.
The REPUBLICAN was charged some
time since with being in favor Of, and
endeavoring TO, break up the Republi-
can party; and some of the leading
journals of the State went so tar as to
read us from the ranks Of that organi-
xation, as far as laid in their power.
Because we had the boldness to object
20 some of the measures of that party,
and place ON record our predictions of
the evil results that would inevitably
follow those measures, we we're charged
with being traitors to party feaity, and
politely informed that We had better
transfer our influence to the opposition.
But failing to see the justice of the
charges preferred, aud unwilling to
accept the proffered advice, we have
continued to fight it out on the old line,
and now we begin to see, and we trust
our accusers will also plainly see, that
our predictions are coming true. We
predicted that the granting of the suf-
frage to the African would eventually
defeat the Republican party in the
Southern States. Has not that predic.
tion been verified? We predicted that
the placing of q military man, one who
had been engaged for years in the mill
tary service, in the Presidential chair,
would surround the White House with
military men, grasping for civil posi-
tions, and endeavoring to unite the civil
and military. Has not that prediction
been fulfilled to the letter? We think
il has, and more than equalled our
most fearful apprehensions. President
Grant seems not satisfied with uniting
the civil with the military power, but
he is endeavoring to unite the clerical
with the military, 30 as to make COM
bination that he, In his blindness
thinks will be impregnable to all as
saults. What man in the United States
would have thought, twelve months
ago, that Mr.. Grant would ever, under
any combination Of circumstances
have had any inclination, directly OF
indirectly, towards any branch of the
church, much less to lend his influence
for the uniting of Church and State;
O combination which has, from time
immemorial, been considered the mosl
dangerous that could be made. We
further predicted that granting the
suffrage 10 the African within our Dor.
ders, was but q step towards the enfran
ehisement of oil Africans who would
e@igrate 70 our shores, and to the open
ing Of the doors for their admission
And Ne ask our readers in oil candor
u we fell far short Of the TRUTH
