WAS HE A REBEEa= Among the most
blatant of the henchmen of the Grant
party is John A Logan Of Illinois. But
short time ago he was talked of as a
possible candidate for the Presidency, to
be nominated by the Liberal Republi-
cans; but speedily discovering that 9th
ers had the inside track, he renewed his
allegiance to Grant-and is now one of
his most contemplate sycophants. III
connection with his present political at
titude, and as proof Of the corrupt ma
ture of the man and his brazen effron-
terry in assaiiing the people of the South
and the national legislation, designed to
release them from their present enslav-
ed condition, we extract the following
n,orccau from the Kansas City Times:
"That's lie, John, and you know it.
You induced my husband to join the
rebel army, and he lost his hfe by ta-
king yonr advice" This was the Ian
guage employed by Gen. Logan's own
sister when he was declaiming IN South
ern Illinois that he had never sympa-
thized With and given aid to the South.
Yes, and this same Logan went to
Richmond towards the hast of April,
1861, and proposed to join the Southern
army if JEFF. Davis would make him
Major General. Davis refusing he re-
turned, raised regiment in Southern
Illinois and was made Major General of
the Union Army by Lincoln.
1t is just such unscrupulous adven
turers as this that the election of Horace
Greeley will forever squelch.

NORTH CARoLINA.-The State election
in North Carolina takes place to-day.
If the expenditure of money can carry
the State for Grant it will be done--for
money taken directly from the Federal
Treasury has been carried there for that
purpose. The usual sum sent to United
States marshals in the several States Of
medium size, like North Carolina, for
the contingent expenses of the United
States Courts is $4,000 each. But upon
inspection at the Department of Justice,

CoNsIsTEScY.-The most Jealous, and
unquestionably the most able supporter
of the Grant party in Oregon, is our
old friend James O'Meary, whose paper
was suppressed by military authority
during the war, for giving aid and
comfort to tie enemy" No man has
more to say of the Inconsistency of sup
porting an old political enemy. Has
Mr.. O'Meary forgotten to remember
who were his enemies then, and from
whom he draws his support now? =? In
stead of filling lis columns with extracts
from the New York Tribune, denunciao-
ry of the Democracy. suppose he should
quote a few from James O'Meary, writ
ten about the same time, giving his views
of the Republicans with whom he is
now acting. 1t would be quite as inter-
esting to his readers and undoubtedly
fully as effective.

Democratic Convention.

The Kalama Beacon gives currency to
TO a'rumor that Democratic Territorial
Convention will be held in that city for
the nomination of q candidate for Dele
gate to Congress, the nomination of
Judge McFadden having relapsed in con-
sequence of the postponement of the
election from June till November. We
hope and believe that no such Conven-
tion will be held; that the authorities
having in charge the Democratic organi-
zation will take no measures which will
draw party lines in this Territory i'll the
coming election, and that the same good
sense and sound judgment will be dis
played in their future action which char
;.cterized their last Convention; the first
in the United States to endorse the action
of the Cincinnati Convention after the
adjournment of that body.
The fight is good one as it stands.
We want no more of party in this Terri
tory; no more of ring combinations to
defeat the popular will through the in
strumentality Of party caucus; no more
the use of public offices as, rewards for
party services to unscrupulous politi-
clans. The uprising of the people thro'
the length and breadth of the country
which has no parallel in the civil COM
motions which have preceded it's
simply a popular protest against party
and its abuses. The candidates for
President and Vice President cast off
their patty shackles and stand forth
as the free epresentatives-sf free peo-
pie, pledged only to administer the Gov
ernment for the whole people, regard
less of party considerations. After their
election-which it is sacrilege to doubt
no faithful public officer will be dismiss
ed from the public service on party
grounds: no incompetent will be ap-
pointed for party services.
In this Territory the issue is preem-
inently between the people and their
plunderers "a junta Of spoils gatherers
fastened upon the public treasury by a
recreant Delegate in Congress, for whose
services the office-holders have every
thing and the people literally nothing
10 show.
Judge McFadden was not nominated
by any Of the usual appliances of party
Conventions; he was in no ordinary
sense party candidate; the Convention
but reflected the spontaneous will of the
people in presenting his name and he
reluctantly consented to become the can
aidate. He will be sustained regardless
Of former party affiliations, and there is
no need OF any new convention to ascer-
tain what is apparent to all, or to en-
barrass the contest with any old party
prejudices.
There is no Dem DC attic party or any
Republican party. These distinctions
have been swept away by the flood of
revolution in the popular sentiment,
and party endorsement carries with it
no prestige except to these who hope to
profit by party success. The party of
the future is Democratic Republican and
al other combinations must go down be-
fore it.

N. P. r. r. Surveys.

Col. Morris, Chief Engineer of the
Pacific Division arrived in this city from
the Skagit Pass on Thursday last. We
have no doubt, from the vigorous man
ner in which the surveys are being push
ed, that all the engineering problems
West of the Rocky Mountains will be
solved by the first of October. There
are six parties in the field in the Pacific
Division, exclusive of those on construc-
ton.
The party under Capt. Sheets, which
ran tie line up the Skagit, met Wards
party coming from thu East, II miles
beyond the Summit on the 10Th inst
Ward remains on the Summit TO devel-
ope the pass by more detailed survey,
and will then run eastward to the Cour
D'Alene Pass. -
Capt. Sheets was in this city on Sat
urday last fitting out his party to run a
line from the Snoqualmie Pass down the
Snohomish river and on to a connection
with Habersham's line on the Shore
line.
Capt. Birnie was also in town on Sat-
Hrday, and reports his party at the
crossing of White river. The hne from
Hodgdon's, the present forty mile ter
minus, to White river is very favora-
Bile one easy of construction and with
long tangents and light grades. This
line will be continued along the West
shore of Lake Washington and thence
over the divide and on north till a con-
nection is made with the lines of Sheets
and Habersham.
Habersham's line is now about ten
miles North of Tulallip and will be run
on north to the British line.
Nothing has been heard of Harry
Steelman who was lost from Sheets par
ty on the 18th of June. Every effort
was made by Capt. Sheets which was
possible, both in person and through
persons sent over the route the lost man
must have traversed. There is no long
er hopes of his recovery, and the inn
preston is that he was murdered by In
dians. The R. R. Co. have offered a
reward for the discovery of the murder
ers, and it is hoped the Governor will
do likewise. las

Prosch; will not have to wait long to re-
turn the compliment. The Courier, as
every practicle publisher knows, is now
sustained at an expense of not less than
$1,000 a month, drawn from the public
treasury, and must go down as soon as
its supporters go out of Office. The de-
feat of Garfelde will be death to the or
