DIsGRAcEFUL.-A Good Templar
writes from Salem to the Portland
Herald as follows:
1T seems that Wilson had learned
in Oregon City that by reason of his
well known incorporate habits the
students and teachers of the William
cite University were dissatitfed with
his nomination. This caused the
Judge TO squirm, and to make an eff
fort TO set things to rights about the
Institute. lie at once imposed him
self upon Professor Catch, y of the
principles of the Univerity, to obtain
that gentlemans consent to deliver
Of bis meaningless harrangues to
Ia students of the Institute-and at-
ter having yhiskied up at the Opera
Saloon several times, as can be proven,
he repaired to the University and
commenced his harrangue in his usual
nncouth style. After he had finished
his discourse he returned at once to
the saloon, just as The dog 10 bis
xomit, or the SOW to her wallow.a-
Such proceedings. as these are certain
~ very cheeky, bnt nevertheless they
are trne, and cannot be successfully
denied

THE Salem Statesman

THE Salem Statesman literally
crawls on its belly in its abject at
tempts to coax the Disguised Repub-
licans of Marion county to support the
spurious ticket of a faction of Radi-
Gals in that county. That paper ex-
hibits a piteous spectacle to the pub
lie gaze, and still the outraged and de-
cent members of its party refuse tx
walk under the party yoke. The In
dependent Republicans of Marion art
bound to win.

some competent person of legal cru
dition briefly explain this subject
through some public journal. There
are yet many who want to know just
what the rights and liabilities of the
II. r. Go. are, and what rights are
left to the people. We want to know,
too, whether State and village subsi-
dies are common and necessary, or
whether this special practice is q mere
financial piracy and blk. The peo-
pie desire to understand, SO as to do,
as well as exact, what is right.

This Is at it should be. No man under

Senator Nesmith, and probably no
one is more able to show him up to
the people in o tyue mirror.

THE Oregonian has for the past
week been welding the party club
with great yehemence over the heads
of the Radicals in Multnomah county,
but the power of that paper is felt 10
more in its party, as i is well der
stood hat its control ard & ctlon
has been transferred to Mr.. Holla3ay.
Its war-cry finds no more an echoing
shout from the Republicans, and its
power for good or evil is limited
to meagre influence which its
masters money exerts upon the NOR
cenary brigade of whom Old Flax
brake is the head and Jimmy O'A1eara
the tail. Vale, Oregoniaa!

GOV. GROVER AT B A

The largest audience of the cam
paign greeted Gov. Growers appear
ance at the Court House, in this city,
last Wednesday evening. The Gov
crnor, although still bearing traces of
his recent indisposition, spoke for
nearly two hours, in that clear, logical,
convincing manner which has rem
dered him a formidable thorn in the
side tof Oregon Radicalism and Il
correspondingly popular champion of
Democracy. He reviewed the recent
State administrations of Gibbs and
Woods-the two Radical Governors
who interviewed between the last and
the present Democratic administra-
tions-showing up their negligence.
their delinquencies, their extrava-
gances and their rascalities in n truth
ful and glaring manner, placing the
Radical party OF this State upon u rec.
ord which for shameless disgrace has
scarcely any parallel. He stated that
upon the advent TO power of the pres
ent State Administration the Indem.
nifty School Lands, the University
Lands and the 100000 acres OF lands
for internal improvements were all
yet unsolicited (save 10000 sores
selected under Gibbs administration.
Thus all of these vast tracts OF land.
which should have been years ago Sc
lected and disposed of anil the money
placed at interest, had been entirely
neglected until our present Demo-
c. attic Administration took charge of
aft. IRIS. Now, in less than two years
of Democratic rule, these lands have
all bee selected and the titles 10
them sec. rely vested in the State. and
the proceeL' will be appropriated to
the uses for which they were guar
anteed.
lie next paid his respects to that
great Radical Ogre, the Swamp Land
act, and showed cont 'usiyely that it
was a wise and benchccnt measure,
and the only n which will insure
the drainage and cultivation of the
erstwhile useless and worthless swamp
and o~verfiowed lands surrounding the
myriads of lakes and water cou. SEES
throughout our State. lie said tn &
by this act alone the State would re-
alize one million dollars, which the
Democracy stood pledged to appro-
pirate to internal improvements and
the public school fund.
The Lock Bill next received the at
%tention OF the speaker; and we have
seldom heard a subject so we'll venti-
lated, Sc fully explained and SO ably
defended as was this measure, at his
hands. He refnted all the Radical
clap-trap about the "school fund
swindle" of the Lock Bill by showing
conclusively that the money was not
taken from the school fund. but from
the grant of internal improvements
He showed that the completion of
those Locks and the opening OF the
Willamette to free navigation was the
salvation of the commercial interests
OF this valley, and was a measure
which should embalm the proprietors
and champions of that measure in the
hearts of Oregon's sons and daugh-
tiers for generations yet to come.
Our limited space forbids further
mention of the many excellent points
which his remarks contained. His
auditors listened with wrapped atten-
ton throughout his entire speech, and
retired from the meeting with ample
food for future digestion.

Another Falsohood.

The Republican, in late issus, SAID the pre"e'
csssor of Geo. c. Ward reported an error Inst IN
1871 of "about 200 names" The record proves
that he reported 1885 names a. errors, only about
22O OF which were names Of negroes. But the
Republican, although We called it's attention 10 the
faisebood, refuses to correct its statement. now
adds another fasehood to the rst in the following
which We cut from that paper of to-day:
LARGE ERROR LlsT.-The 9S5 names allowed
George q. Ward, and the 1900 allowed A. diven'
as errors noticed heretofore by us, were SIMPLY me

That paragraph is purposely printed to m'''ead
the credulous and to influence political animosity'
with the view. no dsa p create prejudice against
the Collectors and the Levy Court, or cause men
to recklessiy vote OH forged and illegal receipts-
Let all who do 20 be punished severely.
How utterly regardless Of truth the editor OF the
Republican must be to make such assertions the
reader can Judge, when We inform him, as he per
hap. knows, and as certainly every intelligent vo
ter in the city does that there are but from SIR t.

The Election on Tuesday.

Every Democratic and Liberal voter should 60
to the polls and vote on Tuesday afternoon. The
Radical party have laid their schemes deep and
cunningly ly-their secret leagues are worked with
special view to securing the election officer', and
to gain positions in which they can defraud and
cheat They are new. We are told, by the aid OF
government officers and government money, i'm
porting negroes from these political leagues into
nearly all the States that vote in October with
view of voting them illegally. They will make
the same efforts in Delaware. They did it before
and will repeat the operation on Tuesday. Let
all who would prevent our County and State fall
ing into the hands of the corruption,sts attend
the polls on Tuesday.

most shocking manner. He was at
work repairing the road when his team

out Of the wagon. In falling, one OF
his feet became entangled In the trace,
and the man was dragged about a mile
aud n half by the horses. When he
was found he was quite dead, aud had
probably been so during the greater
part OF the frightened animals career.
When the remains were discovered,
nothing In the shape Of clothing ex-
cept his shirt remained on his body,
everything else being torn of. One of
his pockets, In which was a purse con-
tanning $40, was found half a mile

mutilated and mangled In the most
horrible manner. On Sunday, Coro-
ner Cory summoned a jury, consisting

age. sober, industrious, aud possessing
the confidence Of all who knew him.
At the time Of his death he was under
engagement to marry a Miss Neville,
OF that township, and had furnished q
house aud made everything ready for
housekeeping In anticipation Of that
happy event, which was TO take place
