"a DESPERATE GAME. This is the
caption of an article in Saturdays Cour-
Ter, from which we copy the following
extract: --

that they were going to vote for McFadden,

THREArs.-We understand that pet
ty official has at empted the game of in
timidation as last resort to bolster up
the waning fortunes of Garfelde. A
few days ago, IN individual vested with
a little brief authority over Uncle Sans
mail bags, declared that if the saloons
dared to go against Selucius that their
business would be broken up by Gun
f1iaaaly, legislation" but that if they
pursued the opposite course, all would
be we'll. We are pleased to learn that
this attempt at bribery was properly re-
buked. The attempt to carry water on
both shoulders will prove miserable
failure. A bid has been made for Good
Templar votes in farming out the county
nominations, and now an attempt is
made to sell them out to aid Garfelde.
Both parties interested, We believe
have too much sense to he deceived by
such transparent lodges.

AppRopRIArE--Among the numerous
pet names bestowed upon the Great
Apologist, Garfelde, the latest is " Luz
gubrious,' doubtless suggested by his
forlorn and woe-begone appearance in
the present canvass. He puts us in
mind Of q prize-cock which has been
worsted. His head is bowed down, his
spirits broken. his tail-feathers draggled,
and his voice but shrill imitation of
the lusty crow that has sounded in for
mer contests. We want no better evil
dence than that afforded by the candi-
date himself that the battle is conceded
to our gallant standard-bearer.

OUR COUNTY TICKET.

We believe the PEOPLE on Saturday
last nominated the strongest and hest
county ticket ever placed before the
voters of Thurston county. The nom-
inees, each and every one of them, can
fill the requirements of the Jacksonian
test of honesty and capacity. Many Of
them have been tried in the several
spheres of action where their services
are now demanded, and we have yet to
learn of single official act, that has
not been wise, prudent, expedient or
lawful.
The candidates for the Legislature
are especially deserving of support, as
they have all served the public in that
capacity, and will bring the aid Of ex-
perience to bear in securing wholesome
Legislation. In this respect the ticket
is in marked.contrast with the legisla-
tive nominations of the Official Ring,
neither of which candidates have had
any experience in the position to which
they aspire. The remainder of the
Ring ticket, with one or two exceptions,
is open to the same criticism. In the
place of such men of tried ability as
Messrs. Billings and Phillips, it is pro-
posed to substitute those of little or no
experience and of doubtful capacity
for the important duties they must as
sumo if. elected. - .
The peoples nominees are chosen with
special reference to their fitness for the
several trusts. They are men who the
people know to be honest, and in favor
of reform of the abuses that have crept
into the administration of public affairs,
from the highest to the lowest. They
are opposed to the clique or ring inAu-
ence; opposed to political chicanery;
and in favor of a return to the habits
of thrift and economy that ruled in
days gone by.
1t is pretty generally conceded that
the Official Ring nominees do not stand
a ghost of chance. It has even been
intimated that they were only put up to
be knocked down by the leaders of the
ring to the best bidder. In other words,
that they were put forward as conve-
nient medium of barter to secure votes
for Garfelde. If some of these confid-
ing victims do not find that they are sold
on the evening of the 5th of November,
we will acknowledge that we have not
carefully read the signs of the times.

THE LITTLE JOKER.

Probably the most chameleon-like
record presented by any candidate in
the present canvass, is that of Col. W..
H. Wallace, the Ring nominee for
Councilman in the counties compound
of Pierce, Mason and Chehalis. He
came to the Territory in 1853 Wing,
and ran for Congress on that ticket i'm
mediately upon his arrival here. In
1855 he was Know-Nothing, in 1857
a Freesoil Republican, and in 1859 he
was a candidate for Congress on the
Douglas Democratic ticket. In 1860
he again Topped to the Republicans and
was appointed Governor. Alexander
like, painting for more worlds to con-
qner, or Ferry-like, having an ambition
for many Offices, he again ran for Con-
gross as Union candidate and was this
time successful. His only act as the
peoples Delegate was to divide the
Territory, that he like Sancho might
become governor of a province-the
province of Idaho. After the expiration
of his time of Office, he returned to this
Territory johnson man, having re-
presented it in the. Philadelphia Con-
vention. He opposed Lugubrious by
might and main, but nomination for
Representative on the Garfelde ticket
made him the warmest of his support
ers-ostensibly, huthe never lost IN OPP
portunity to stab him in the back. His
duplicity defeated him on the legisla-
tive ticket, and he, concluding that des-
perate situations required desperate
remedies joined THE Good Templars
and was their delegate to the National
Lodge, but Qike Garfelde) never re-
Taxed his association with his boon COM
panion Or his Partially for the flowing
bowl" Processing to be a Republican,
he has signiied his intention of await
ing the action of the Louisville Conven-
ton before declaring which candidate
was the Simon-pure. In local politics,
he was aBoltert to Boilers, to the Ring n
staunch. supporter of Lugubrious. A
few days ago Ferry gave orders to Bal
lard and Harmon to elect the Colonel to
the Legislative Council, and the work
goes bravely on. Poor old soul, he re-
lies upon getting the votes of each and
every party, he has ever affiliated with,
and anticipates his election with conf
dence. What disappointment is in
store for him! How his tail feathers
will be clipped when he falls into the
hands of his enraged constituents!

The GREAT EASTERN VAR1ErY TROUPE.
This excellent company of male and
female performers gave an intertain-
ment in Columbia Hall. on Tuesday
evening before a fair audience. The
dancing by the several ladies' of the
company was better than average, and
the singing and music excellent. Mr..
Hochgurtel, the manager, informs us
that after visiting the several towns on
the Sound, and Victoria, they will re-
turn and give one or more performances
here.

"PUTs HIS Foor IN IT. This is the
inference of the Beacon, (the Railroad
organ), in reviewing the manifesto of
Rev. J. r. Thompson, published in the

"He undertakes to lecture the Olympians

Co.. in which he intimates that the Company
will act somewhat Punic toward that locality.

LAMENrABLE FrzzLE. The attempt of
the clique to get up little enthusiasm
over the arrival Of ,Garfelde was q most
marked failure. After several days
preparation and persistent drumming
only forty-three persons could be found
to join in the display, and one-third of
them were officials Of high and low de-
gree, and fully one-half the remainder
were supporters Of McFadden, who
joined in for little sport. The caval-
cadc paraded the entire length of Main
street without a single cheer of welcome,
and lodged off on q by-street to escape
the embarrassing GOODNESS manifested
by our citizens. The days of Felukeus'
influence are numbered, hispolitical sun
is setting, and its last rays illumine the
horizon with a twilight that must soon
be succeeded by the darkness of night.
Let us witness the gathering shadows
with pity for the prostitution Of the
brighter gifts of genius rather than with
feelings of hatred or malevolence to-
wards the weak man who was their pos
SCISSOR. The victors can afford to be
magnanimous, and we trust they will
exhibit charity that will maintain our
self respect and secure the respect of
others.

GARF1ELDE's SpEEcH.-We gave q syn
Opsis of Mr.. Garielde's remarks last
week, in advance of their delivery.
More important duties prevented us
from listening to hisrehash of promises
and apologies, but friend informs us
that our article did not do him injustice,
the only material omission was in not
anticipating the bitter vindictive spirit
towards his political opponents. And
this is the best of indications that he has
lost all hope of success.

FAREWELL VOLUME TWELVE.

Another milestone in the course of
time is passed; another chapter in the
worlds history is written. Twelve
years! How much happiness and mis-
cry can be crowded into that brief pc
Rod! What momentous events can
transpire, and leave their impress upon
the habits and customs of nations and
individuals in the few short years that
have passed since we made our advent
in journalism. Our nation is remod-
eled. The ideas that then prevailed,
are but the vague membranes of to-
day; the people that then were in bond
age are now the peers of their masters,
and those who were mighty in the coun-
sells of the nation and surrounded by
the evidences of wealth and refinement,
are now DISTINGUISHED, bankrupt and
dishonored. But what may not the
next twelve years bring forth? Who
can predict the edicts of fate? And
who will deny that the compromising
influence of time makes all things
even?
You, dear STANDARD, are now twelve
years old. Right nobly have you sus-
tanned yourself in all the emergencies
and perplexities that have arisen. Dur
the twelve long years that have elapsed
since we started forth on our somewhat
Quixotic attempt to conquer the world,
you have never failed to address your
readers on time. We have vanquisheds
many wind-mills-you and I, dear
SrANnARD-and have demolished giants
lin their own estimation), and paved
the way for human progress! Have
we not cause for congratulation? Do
you not feel proud in your new and
comedy dress, of the battles we have
fought together, and the hardships, as
well as the pleasures, VIC have suffered
and enjoyed? More than one-third of
the years usually allotted to man have
been spent in your service. The same
hands that gave you being have minis
tered to your wants all along, and will
continue to labor for your support.
Should you not be grateful and thrive
and grow the under impetus that will be
given to every industry by the now era
SO soon to dawn upon our Territory
Yes, we will pull together and endeavol
to show before the elapse of another
twelve years what we mutually, dear
STANDARD, know about newspapers.

THE RECEPTION.

The largest display that ever has been
made by our citizens on any occasion.
was that Of yesterday afternoon, in hon
or of our standard-bearer, Judge Nc
Fadden. Twenty three stages thronged
with people, large proportion OF whom
were ladies', went out to receive the
chicftain, and escort him to town, be-
sides carriages and those mounted on
horses. This large concourse was COM
posed of the PEOPLE, citizens of every
shade of opinion, who by this demon
stration signify their desire for REFORM
The approach of the immense escort
was heralded by firing of cannon, ring
ing of bells, and every manifestation of
Joy. The Judge was conducted to
apartments at the Tacoma Hotel, and
the vehicles andpeople lined the stIee's
and sidewalks. After music by the
band, the Judge was called for, and
in response appeared on the balcony
and made few remarks, thanking the
people for the ovation in his behalf.
The late honr at which this is written,
prevents anything like review of Lis
remarks. They were timely, and greet
cd With repeated cheers. The Judge
speaks to-day at 2 o'clock, in Columbia
Hall: Go, everybody, and hear the
great speech of the campaign.

due to MIR. Charles Schaffer, recently
