THE DUTY OF DEMOCRATS.
Speech of Charles A. Eldridge, Of Wisconsin,
at sheboR-an, on His denomination for
Congress.

That faithful and clear-headed Democrat
ie statesman, Charles A. Eldridge, of Wis
cOnsin, was nominated for Congress At
Shehoygan on the 9th ult., for his sixth
consecutive term. He made q speech on
accepting the nomination, in which he spoke
as follows of the duty of Democrats at the
present time
Gentlemen, in view of such state of
things, in view of ell these alarming facts,
supported and maintained as they are by
the most undoubted authority, what ought
the people to do? What ought the Demo-
cratic party to do? Is there any doubt of what
is our duty-of the demands of statesman
ship, of patriotism? As for myself, have
no longer any doubt or hesitation in answer
ing the question. We should support with
all our might and vote for Horace Greeley.

Beiah BrgEn, formerly editor of tho
leading orgaf of the OregepD DEM ocracy,
butRhs is now engaged ID, publishing
paper On thessound, gives Burnett the
following rub:
-" AS aAcitizen,i 10 his own limited
sphere in life, Mr.. Burnett is unexcep-
tionable. As Representative in Con :
gress of State Of the coming import
ance and large interests of Oregon, he
you'd be simply NoNENTITY, shame
and disgrace to the intelligence of the
people Of that State. Any intelligent
man in the State, who had important
business to transact in Washington,
would never dream Of selecting him as
an attorney to attend to such business,
Or either of the three others who en-
tered the Convention aj competitors for
the nomination.
1t has come to this, that men are Sc
lected by party Conventions for the
highest Offices in the land, who have
not the capacity to achieve distinction
or credit IN the ordinary avocations OF
life. Mr.. Burnett has grown UP to
manhood in a rural district of Oregon,
where he has, enjoyed few advantages
of education and but very limited in
tercoarse with men from whom he would
be likely to learn much which would
fit him for the important trust of mem
ber of Congress. OF the conventional
ties of refined society he is almost to
tally ignorant, and in the social inter
course which the office to which he AS
pires would necessarily force upon him
he would be entirely out OF his depth
and consequently without influence.
OF Judge Wilson, Mr. Brown say:
g Mr.. Wilson, is not q great man
but would make by far the most rcspec.
table Representative and when il
comes to the alternative between State
interests and party feeling, the foruer

improvements.

Ever since the formation OF the Re-
publican party, olr nation has steadily
advanced ID the Of way improvements
and permanent institutions. Internal
improvements have been accomplished
which astonish the world Railroads
connect the Atlantic and Pacific State.
Ten years ago the thing was pronounced
an impossibility, and the gen tleman who
advanced ethegideafa Professor ina Uni
versity, was pronounced insane, and
also cashiered his position. The idea
was.fostered by the Republican party.
and at the earliest moment the gigantic
undertaking was attempted, and with
what success il met every one knows
The pemoeAtie party opposed the
scheme with every means in their pow
er, and had it not been for the energy
and pndaunted courage 6fthea Republi-
cans having coptrol of the affair, Ore
gopiaps wo0ld be compelled to-day to
take three smpnths instead Of three
weeks. to make. trip East.
Does notstbe above appear to be a
good reason Why The Republican party
should be successful {?
A&si1. eneafes home, have we an
example of the way that Democrots are
10 1ayor of internalimproyements At
no time, when they were in the ascen-
dsncy, was any record made of their

day they are opposing every scheme

persons. They do not care TO improve

The Nepubieahs Of Oregon have i'm
proved every opportunity to make Ore

is no use for the Democratic patty to
entertain hope Of success, so far as
carrying the state is concerned. They
get very badly whipped by the Repubh-
cans in all their efforts at stumping,
harmony exists not in their ranks, and
their leaders have not the ability to
heal the differences that divide the
party. Curl is yolng man and a
pleasant speaker, but he will have to
keep better posted, in order to avoid
making himself appear so ridiculous by
his wild assertion.

The Puget Sound Courier has well
written article concerning the respcc-
tive positions taken BY both. parties in
Oregon. In conclusion it says;
Unwittingly Mr.. Burnett and his
Democratic co-adjutors are doing their
best to reduce us 10 the condition OF
svassals of England and of her slave
like labor. Under the prctence ot
.helping labor he is striking it the most
fatal blow by aiming to deprive il OF
the aid of capital aud TIE energy and
enterprise that follow capital when cn>
ploy ed, as il eaanot be when discovered
sfrom labor, as he would make it, Suici.
dal policy Such man the friend of
Tabor, lie is its most deadly enemy
Such party the champion Of the
workingman! 1t is his assassin. Mad
ness aud idiocy or the most deplorable
ignorance must possess the minds OF
the Oregonians, if they. can approve
and endorse such doctrines By their
votes in the coming election.

It seems that the Democrats are very
proud of their cham piou, Burnett
from the fact that he is Missourian.
We haven't learned from what county
in Missouri he is from, bat we are pos
tive he is not Piker, because smart
men never leave that county. We
arc sure that he is the lost "Sage of
Grundy." Grundy never contained
but one brilliant statesman, aud he dis
appeared very mysteriously several
years ago, since which time nothing has
been heard of him, and now we are
sure that Hon John is the man. Tell
it to the world, then, that the "Sage Of
Grundy' is in Oregon, it may afford his
frieuds relief to know his whereabouts.
