THE FILTHY POOL OF PARTY POL
ITIOS.

Elsewhere we give the current account
of the latest preparation of fraud i'm the
very fraudulent canal and locks swindle.
Our politicians, Republican or Demo-
cratic, who are implicated in this rob
berry, will all land on the other side Of
Jordan" and experience orthodox per-
dition before they get their accounts
squared with inexorable justice. While
it is true that the Democratic Legisla-
ture did perpetrate the public school
land robbery, it is also true that Repub-
lican members, whose names we can
give, aided and abetted the nefarious
transaction; and we know prominent
Republicans in this city who are largely
interested in the same, without whose
influence the equally guilty and greedy
Democrats would have failed in their OBJ
ject.
Another overwhelming proof that eX-
isting parties cannot be trusted. Gen
tlemen, men of honor and rectitude,
come out, we entreat you, from the
meshes of designing schemers and plant
yourselves upon a platform where honor
and honesty shall unite to enhance the
best interests Of the people, and no Longer
aid in promoting the pecuniary plethora
Of legal robbers.
The new Northwest. [volume] (Portland, Or.) 1871-1887, 1871-11-24
WHAT THEY COST.

How would the following, from the
Bulletin, apply TO Eugene since we have
something of the same kind i'm our
virtuous little town. "The lager beer
cellars where female talent f?) is en-
ployed to sling beer, and the low melo-
dions, entail an indirect cost upon Port
land of about two thousand dollars per
month. They are rendezvous for thieves,
rollers, suffers, dead beats, etc, and i'm
order to watch, catch and punish them
the city has to pay $4,000 per annum.
If these places were clOsed-and they
can be closed if the City Council so will
tit would be found that the thieves
wouldn't remain here. They would
seek more cOngenial localities, and we
would be permitted TO live in peace."-
State Journal.
Brethren, you must give it up, Alone
YOU cannot make and enforce such laws
as society must have, if we would save
our sons and daughters from ruin.
Women would make paper kites of all
city charters licensing such dens, and
they would cause the women who in
habit and tile men who patronize them
to flee to the mountains. Wen have
none of these things in the good tim,
coming.

LETTER FROM SAN FRANCISCO.

My Dear Mrs. Dumiwdy:-Though [
am personally a stranger to you, yet l
feel so deeply interested i'll the cause for
which you labor-which is the cause of
huDonity-that | feel that we ought to
be acquainted. can do but little in the
cause, and that little in a quiet ocdy, but
l am constantly employed. speak and
act spontaneously, Quaker like. yes
terday saw Laura DeForce Gordon and
paid her for one years subscription to
the NEW NORTHWEST. am interested
in the paper-first, because / like it /;
second, because iCOBldn engineers it;
and third, because Oregon was my place
of residence as long ago as 1887. In May
of that year l entered the mouth of the
Columbia river and made my home in
the Willamette valley for nearly five
years. l cooked the first meal of victuals
on the spot now known as Salem; aided
a mud oven for baking bread for COM
pany of men-who went there and put
up sawmill for the Methodist Mission,
under the jurisdiction of the Rev. Jason
Lee, at his request-as I was at that
time one of his cO-workers in the mis-
sionary cause-and a small cause il
seemed, compared with the one in which
we are now engaged, in which one hall
of the human family are asking for the
right to assist in moulding the destiny
of nations. We have now become so faI
advanced i'm the work that it can nc
longer be laughed down. Your paper i
being extensively circulated here. MIS-
AnthOny is in the hearts Of the people
and the California papers do not men
ton her name. We hope she will sOor
. return to us.
Now, Mrs. Duniway, if there is any
thing in this letter worth publishing
you are welcome to it 4; if not, the pape
will do to light your Office fire.
Yours respectfully, etc,

THE EUGENE JOURNAL" IS IEDIG-
NANT,

Somebody, who has evidently been to
the hurdy house a good deal, tries to
palSate his own sins by duplicating
others in the same very questionable
'pastime," and says in letter to the
OregOHidR, that nearly everybody OF the
male persuasion in this city are patrons
of the hurdy gurdys. At least this
would be the inference from his letter,
as he speaks of little else, and enumer-
ates a number of classes to be found
there. The correspondent might have
imagined that he saw great many peo-
pie there, but We dissent from his gen
eral accusation.-EUgeRe Journal.
The gentlemanly editor of the Jour
nal, who is so far advanced in the social
scale as to speak respectfully of Woman
Suffrage, very naturally objects to in
situations like the above. Never mind,
Bro. Journal! When the women of Eu-
gene City exercise their high preroga-

Has THEFT BEEN COMMITTED ?

Once in a while political newspaper
is seized with a spasm of virtue, and
gathers courage to say something con-
demnatory of certain measures of certain
members Of its own party. The OregO-
nidn of Tuesday says:
The Enterprise of Oregon City in its
last issue intimates that five per cent.
proceeds of sales of public lands that
accrued during the Woods administra-
ton, were Stolen This has been re-
peatedlv hinted by the Democratic press.
WHY'S not the proof of il published and
measures taken to prosecute the guilty
person or persons?
II is our own belief, from information
that has come to our knowledge, that a
sum of money arising from sales OF pub
lie lands i'm Oregon and transmitted 10
the State some five years ago from
Washington was stolen. This sum was
from five thousand to seven thousand dol
lars, and we believe that the evidences OF
the theft have been for some time in the
hands Of the present State officials, who,
instead Of taking measures TO recover
the money and punish the guilty are
putting of this duty i'm the hope of being
aole 10 use the matter for political capi-
ial IN the next election.
NoM ihls business Is very simple. If
d IlielI mas been perpetrated it is eX-
Clisig S'lSy TO trace it, Governor
Grover and others know all abont n
democrats assert that they have known
It long time. The person or ,1o,,eo,,l nl-o W.
implicated are under bonds to tba sIolio Sfote
ana the money can be recovered it ; ea.:s e.nte
Is commenced therefor. If I'll II Sull 1.lt
been embeZzlement the preso,', tirSie mas
officials, who, it is intimated, ba,eo oIate e-te,
of it, are not only culpable bnt P@lool @
criminal, for neglecting their Main 6,'.sl Ereli
They are now among the ones To hIa,',Ss'
They are shirking, neglectin, or dafns
ring the performance of an official dn1,
simply for the reason that they tbini
this matter will be a good thing 4
spring Just before the election. Thu
they are giving the guilty chance 1
escape and increasing the danger tina
the money will not be recovered but tina
il will be utterly lost to the State.
If any person or persons connecte
with the Republican administration {
this state have been dishonest or delin
quent, we demand that they be punished
NO Republican will attempt to shiel
