EX-G0V. WHITAKER

The Eugene Guard, in commenting
upon a personal attack upon Ex-Gov-
ernor Whitaker in the Jacksonville
Times, says:
Governor Whiteaker is not n candi-
date for Congress and the Times on
tains the first intimation that his
friends and neighbors have had that
such a thing was talked of or thought
of. Those who know him best, know
that he is controlled by no narrow
selfishness, and no petty local preju-
dices or jealousies. His patriotism is
as broad as the nation, and every part
of the State is equally dear, and the
wishes of every section equally sacred
with him.
We add our endorsement to the
above in regard to Gov. Whiteaker's
unselish patriotism, and are confident
that the Democracy of Oregon must
echo the sentiment. 1t is much to be
regretted that Mr.. Fay finds it neces-
sary to attack the record and charac-
ter of so true a Democrat and honest
a man as John Whitaker, and the
party will not fail to hold him respon-
sible for such a reprehensible course.
If Mr.. Fay's Democracy is as earnest
as he so yehemently asserts, he can
surely find in the enemy's ranks a
sufficient field for his caustic pen,
without turning its point against our
partisan champions. "Let us have

A MER1rED REBuYE

In the Herald of the 10Th inst. we
find an article which We reproduce
in another column and to which we
refer our readers. For truth, ability
and classic castigation it has never
been surpassed in the annals of Ore
gon journalism. The editor of the
Bulletin, against whom this philippe
is directed, has ever been prone to
use his power as a journalist against
any one to whom he cherished a per-
sonal hatred, regardless alike of truth
and the amenities of journalism. in
this article he has been summed up"
and despite his wrigglings in reply
thereto flor answer he cannot) will
be pronounced a used up man. The
full measure of justice, we think, has
been accorded him, and no more; and
we trust that, depraved as he is, he
will profit by the lesson. No mar
that has ever figured prominently in
this State rs n politician or otherwise
has ever been spared by this Ishmael-
lite of the press, if torsoo:h the dis
like of James OMeara has ever been
incurred by him; and we feel sure
that Col. Taylor's "Vindication' finds
a response in the hearts of all we'll
disposed men in the State. Malevo-
lent III his hatreds, INSCRIPTIONS in
his assertions, cowardly in his in
%stincts, depraved in his conduct and
reckless in his judgments, this prince
of ingrates has from behind his tripod
sent forth his shafts envenomed by
his personal spleen for years past, and
never before has been dealt with as
he so well deserved. There is a les
son to be learned from all this, aud
it istersely expressed in the language
of the poet when he says, Time at
last sets all things even."
Time has rewarded James O'Meara,
and placed him where he properly be-
longs-among the list of those whose
diabolic maleyolence have recoiled
upon themselves and rendered them
objects of loathing and contempt
We commend Col. Taylor's article to
the careful perusal of all our readers.

STOCK IN EASTERN OREGON.

A correspondent of the Herald,
who dates his letter at the Dalles,
Feb. 18, speaking of the condition of
stock in Wasco county, says that the
loss of stock has been greatly exagger-
ated. He adds:
"What few cattle have died were
emigrant stock, brought here late in
the season from the Willamette, then
in poor condition, and confined to the
section OF country Immediately ada
cent to the Columbia river and south
OF the Dalles, on the Des Chutes and
its tributaries. From Fifteen-mile
Creek south to Mutton Mountain
there is at least four thousand head;
the largest owner being Mahoney,
Mayes, Todd and Slows, who have
met with no loss, out OF the whole
number. In the section OF country or
range between the John Days River
and the Des Chutes, extending from
the Columbia south Of Antelope Val
ley, on the line of the Dalles Military
road, there is estimated to be at least
five thousand head of cattle, and
owned in good part by Messrs. Eaton,
Price, Pearson, Barnum, Donnell,
Finegan Bros, Tucker and Ward
AS far as the four latter persons are
concerned, they have met with no
loss, nor have they attempted to feed
the other parties | have not heard
from. Mr.. Donnell, who is just in
from that section, says that he will
guarantee that the entire loss in that
direction will not exceed thirty head.
Beyond Antelope towards Canyon
City, there are immense herds, and
there has beenDo loss whatever. Gold
smith and Teal may lose ten ortwenty
head. Clane, in the Big Bottom Of
John Days has over one thousand
head, and writes that his stock is all
right-will not lose any. On Bridge
Creek, Mr.. Sutton writes, under
date Of February 18th: We have
had a good winter, our stock is all
fat. / have not lost even a calf
There has been no loss anywhere
around here. | have not fed any, and
would like to get a chance t 0 sell my
hay. Mr.. Sutton has about two hun
dred head Of fine stock. Mr.. Wood,
of John Days, near the South Fork,
and partner Of Grant Bros, Of this
place. writes that they have had a
very mild winter. Have not been
compelled to feed their stock, al
though they were prepared to do so
if necessary. He desired Dir. Grant
to make a sale, if possible, of one hun
dred head of very fine beef steers,
which ne now has on hand ready for
market. Messrs. Wood g. Grant
have about five hundred head of stock
cattle. In summing up, | hear of no
complaints, except from those who
have no stock to lose, and natural
croakers. The settlers, generally,
are in fine spirits, and are looking for
ward TO the next season as the most
prosperous they have ever yet expert
enced. These notes refer to the
country south of the Dalles. | have
not had opportunity to hear from the
country on the north side, embracing
the Klickatat and Yakima, but am
satisfied that all will be right in that
direction"

Is it not in questionable taste for
our neighbor I'VE the way to growl
at the Litigant Law when he is only
enabled to run his machine by the
aid of Government printing under
appointment from the Radical dy-
nasty at Washington? Only those
who are engaged in litigation patron
ize the litigant press, while every tax
payer in the land is compelled to sup
port these Radical papers who have
the Government printing to do, re-
ceiving therefor exorbitant rates.

There was a frog who lived in a spring,
He caught such a cold that he could not sing"
Poor, unfortunate Batrachian! In what a sal
plight he must have been. And yet his misfor-
tune was one that often befalls singers. Many
u once tuneful voice among those who belong to
the genus homo" is utterly spoiled by ''cold in
the head,' or on the lungs, or both combined.
For the aforementioned ''croaaer" we are not
aware that any remedy was ever devised but
We rejoice to know that al human singers may
keep their heads clear and their threats in tune
by n timely use of DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy,
and DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, both
of which are sold by druggists.

r, as follows, viz
4 JOURNALISTIC OUTLAW.

The individual who is employed by
his master to abuse and misrepresent
Democrats through the columns of
the Bugetin has so far forgotten the
instincts of manhood as to resort to
the most unblushing taljehoods in or
der to make a point against those
with whom his master has any differ
ences. He ignores all caution in his
warfare and slashes in with whole col
umus of mephitic diatribes, as barren
of truth as was Mephistopheles of de-
cency.
The last brazen falsehood to which
our attention has been directed is in
the Bulletin of the 18th inst, in which
it is stated that the School Fund of
Linn county, amounting to ninety
thousand dollars, is Kept at Salem by
the Board of School Commissioners,
to be used by Governor Grover for
the benefit OF his W political asso-
GATES and also as a corruption fund
Now this assertion is as barren of
truth as is the sandy Desert of Sahara
devoid of water. Linn county's
school fund is safely locked in the
vaults of our worthy County Treas
urer, and has never been in Salem
It is true that, agreeably to the pro-
visions of law, each county treasurer
in the State has been required to for
ward to the Stale capital the yearly
interest accruing from the school
fund, which interest is to be divided
between the several counties OF the
State, according to the number Of
school children IN each county, and
to be appropriated to educational
purposes; and in conformity with
that order our Treasurer some time
ago forwarded to Salem something
over seven thousand dollars as ac-
crued interest upon the School Fund
of this county, and of course that sum
will be added to the interest fund of
the school moneys of each county and
be Immediately returned to its proper
channel as the law provides.
This is all there is of the school
fund question, SO far as Linn county
is concerned. The ninety thousand
dollars mares nest of the Bulletin is
simply a fabrication, invented by the
elastic editor OF that paper for politi-
cal effect. 1t Is an insult to the good
sense OF the people of Oregon to sup
pose that any assertion from such an
unreliable source would have any eff
feet upon their political conduct OF
upon their judgement of public off.

from the Sacramento Reporter, upon

"Why cling SO tenaciously to your
organization, when you can, by aban-
doning it, secure the triumph of your
principles? In the first place, we
do not admit that such a result would
follow such a course, and if we did
we would still stand by the colors,
because We are not only proud of our
principles, but of u party, also
The Democratic party numbers more
than three millions of white voters.
To overcome this number our un-
scrupulous adyersaries had to arm the
ignorant negro with the ballot. The
Radical managers have exhausted
their power. They can bring no more
recruits into the field. Even the Chi
naman and Digger Indian cannot save
them. The Democratic party, how.
ever, is continuing to grow. It
is always young. It is irresistible.
It is uHterrifed. It is compact
Even if defeated in the next cam
paign it will survive gloriously. I,
must become dominant again at an
early day. A temporary coalition
with the Anti-Grant Republicans in
order to rid the country of the curse
of Grantism would not alarm US, but
disbandonment is not to be thought
of.
