EDITORIAL NOTES.

The Oregon City election last Monday
resulted in a Democratic victory. Per
consequence the Republican papers
think it has no special political signfi-
canoe, while the Democrats profess to
see IN it fore-shadowing of the general
result in the State election next June.
1t makes all the difference in the world
with the opinion Of the party press
which side gets whipped.
The Multnomah Republican primary
election last Tuesday was carried over
whelmingly by the Holiday wing. The
county ticket will be nominated to-
morrow Saturday..
The Cincinnati Convention has met
and done its work Horace Greeley was
nominated for President and Gratz
Brown (Jasper's uncle) for Vice Presi-
dent. The nominations "might have
been better and they might have been
worse" We are really disappointed
that our friend Jasper didn't get the
nomination for President, or Vice Presi-
dent anyhow. 1t would have been such
compliment to Oregon!

CORRESPONDENCE.

This department of the NEW NORTH
WEST is to be a general vehicle for ex-
change of ideas concerning any and all
matters that may be legitimately dis
cussed in our columns. Finding It practi-
cally impossible to answer each CORES
pOndent by private letter, we adopt this
mode of communication to save our
friends the disappointment that would
otherwise accrue from our inability to an
swer their queries. We cordially invite
everybody that has question to ask, a
suggestion to make, or a scolding to give
to contribute to the Correspondents
Column.
Sylvia A., Amity: Yes. Bishop Lawn
is as becoming as anything. Embroid-
cred bands on such a dress would be
fashionable and becoming. You have
good taste.
Harry c.: Don't do it.
Mary E.: Your conduct is all right in
the matter. The gentleman-if he be a
gentlemdn-respects you for it, whatever
he may say.
Sylvester c.: We would not advise
you to come to the city if, as you say,
you have good home. If you can con-
tent yourself there it is better for you to
stay. There are many temptations to a
boy like you in a city, especially if
friendless and unaequainted. However,
as we do not k1,ot0 everything connected
with your situation, we cannot give any
definite opinion in the premises.
Sarah E. You will find something
about the latest fashions in another
place. We suppose there is no necessity
for fuller statement of them here.

A SHAMEFUL PROCEDURE.

The manner in which the Republican
primaries were carried last Tuesday for
the Holladay wing was anything but
creditable to the victors. Nearly hir-
teen hundred uotes l0ere polIed. The
Republican vote two years ago, at the
general election, was not quite one
thousand. Then considering that in
the primaries last Tuesday many of the
rank and file Of the honest portion of
the Republicans did not vote, there is
no way of accounting for the tremendous
majority for the Holladay ticket except
the most unblushing, shameful and dis
graceful use of corruption and importa-
ton. Will the honest portion of the
Republican party tamely submit to this
outrage?
Another feature of the contest is this:
During the struggle the Holladay fac
tion has been fighting-ostensi5ly-for
only one object-the Sheriffalty. Not a
word was said about what men should
he sent to the Legislature. That ques-
tion was studiously kept in the back
ground. The sequence will be that to-
morrow Saturday. an entire Holladay
ticket will be nominated. The candi-
dates for the Legislature, if elected, will
do Holidays bidding and vote to send
some tool of his to the United States
Senate. Ben Holiday, more than any
thing else, desires to have man in the
Senate Chamber from Oregon who will
assist him to bind our beautiful, young
and growing commonwealth with the
iron bands of his monopoly. Are the
people willing that he should carry out
his programme?
We have spoken thus plainly because
this is a question which rises above all
mere party considerations. We have
no choice between Democrats and Re
publicans-as such. But we do desire
to see the people arise in the majesty of
their might and effectually rebuke the
ofiicious intermeddling Of the one man
in Oregon who seeks, by the aid of in
timidation and money, to bend every
thing to his will.

MANS RIGHTS.
BY DIR. MARY E. WALKER.
The following notice recently appeared
In fba VVooI,fno,fo,, Cyo,-.

The following notice recently appeared
in the Washington Star:
"The Man Question, Is the subject OF a lee
ture to be delivered by Rev. G. d. Boynfon at
the Assembly Church, corner / and 5th streets
y. T., Tomorrow night We have neard a good
deal OF the woman movement" :" and Il Is about
time the other sex had n chance.
The substance of his lecture may be
imagined by what followed.
1t would seem that, when ''Man's
Rights" are so well defined and so we'll
protected by law, all men ought to un-
derstand them without further instruc-
tion, and would feel perfectly secure
from any invasion by women. But the
presumption is that the mass of men
either do not comprehend the magnitude
of such rights, or else that they need to
be warned that there is danger of their
being usurped. But, whatever the case
may be, the fact is before us that the
Bev. Mr.. Boynton felt that there was a
necessity for giving public lecture on
the subject. This was all right, for he,
not because of his manhood, but because
of his ability to talk, had a right to dis
cuss any subject he chose. Thus far
does his right extend, and as much
farther as he can use his God-given
powers without injury to Others. But
we protest against his assuming to de-
prive any one else of the rights that
they have derived from the same source
that he received his own. There is not
only want Of the most ordinary jus
tice in such action, but a want also Of
that Christianity which is set forth in
the words, GAS ye would that Others
should do to you, do ye even so to them"
Were we to speak of the clergymen as
body and say that the "leaders" among
them were all "free lovers" it would
evinee anything but a true Christian
spirit, although Mr.. b. must admit that
there are elergymen who are practical
"free lovers" and in his own denomi-
nation, too. This he would dare not
deny, since these mems practices have
caused them to be expelled from the
church, or at least have deprived them
of the ministerial standing. The for
giving Of seventy times seven" for such
vile offenses against Gods laws has
never been practiced in any church
where such wrongs to society and to
woman have been generally known. 1t
seems that in the number of times that
churches forgive offenders they do not
come up 10 the Bible standard.
But 1 am not deciding at this time
whether the churches are right or
wrong in determining for themselves
how often with safety they may forgive

have; but Tve thought more, am hard
er, for the last few weeks than ever be-
fore in my hull eventful life, and the
followin' resolution is the blessed re-
suit. Bein' as how many of the pertest
and best edicated women Of our free and
beloved county are a-tryin' to ride that
ere hObby-hoss called Woman Suffrage
(and an age of sufferin' it'll carry 'em to
eff my opinion is wuth anythingl, and
bein' as how innumerable facts like
mighty stumblin' blocks will be con-
stantly a-risin' up before 'em, and over
which it will be of no use tryin' to pur-
sue the uneven tenor of their way, there
fore
ResOlced, That / this day set out upon
a tour of observation, the object of which
shall be to search out said facts and
place them before the eyes of my poor,
deluded sisters, hOpin' therby to induce
'em at once to dismount and return to
their proper spere.
Agreeable to said resolution, began
airly this mornin' maxim preparations
for my final departure by givin' direc-
tions to the gals concarnin' the manage
ment of things inside the house, and to
Josh and the boys outside. He's my old

had better stay at home and attend to

way, so 1 jest told him that ''Duty was

neighbor Marks. She's in strong for

people say he is too; but kinder

the crops, and sich like, when neighbor
MellOr came in, and it wasn't no time
afore him and Mrs. Marks were engaged
in perlitical conversation.
''By the way, suppose you went to
hear Miss Anthony lecture while she
was in Walla Walla," said she.
81? No! never go to hear any on
'em lectur," said Mellor. 81 know
enough already to know that this ere
woman suffrage business will never do,
no, never! And Pll vote agin it every
time. 1 tell you men Grs too jealous!
Now, for instance, suppose some one
was a-runnin' for office that / didn't
like, and he'd seek private interview
with my wife and use all the eloquence
he was master of to persuade her to vote
for him right agin my principles, how
dye spose I'd feel then? Why, madder
than wet hen. And I tell you now
that politics will make more excuses for
men to seek private interviews with
other mems wives than anything else
under the shinin' sum-"
Jest at this pint Mr.. Marks stepped in,
and after bowin' very genteel-like to
me, askin' about the folks at home and
shakin' hands with Mr.. Mellor, he said
she was sorry he couldn't stay and jine

a-waitin' to be shown over the farm,

come to have a little private converse

wife's health, as it had been very poor
for some time past, and he know'd Mrs.
Marks was well posted in such matters" 4"
"All right; you are perfectly exeusa-
ble," replied Marks.
I'VE will not talk politics, my dear;
therefore you need not be jealous,n put
in Mrs. Marks, with one of her most be-
wilderin' smiles, and the pleased look

FASHIONS FOR LADIES.

In millinery we notice hats i'm the
windows with high, pulled crowns OF
lace, crepe and tulle, having slightly
dropping brims of gimp and cactus, the
whole surmounted by an enormous rose
at the back, from which depends a trail
ing vine and knotted lace and ribbons.
Dolly Warden calicoes, Dolly Warden
hats, Dolly Warden collars and Dolly
Warden dandies are all the rage. These
last are all bare on the chin, with viii
lainous side whiskers Of they can raise

walking, and at intervals a sort of moi
some smoke ascends from an ugly ORR

protrudes a machine called a Nicer

Dolly Warden dandy all the while imag-

TEMPERANCE IN POLITICS.

Much has been said by the Temper
ance people of Oregon in favor of voting
only for known Temperance candidates
for office. A great deal of talk has been
INDUCED in and high-sounding resolves
made, but yet, we fear, little will come
of it all. The Temperance men will
vote their straight party ticket, no mat
ter how many whisky candidates are
placed upon it. The consequence will
be that whisky Legislature will be
elected again, and no temperance legis-
lation can be secured.
Just wait till women vote, and We'll
see if a whisky candidate ever gets
elected! The Temperance Reform will
never accomplish anything except
through the aid of woman's vote.

PROGRESSING.

The scales Of prejudice are at last be-
ginning to fall from the eyes of the legal
fraternity. The Supreme Court Of the
District Of Columbia recently so modi-
fed its rules as to admit women to
practice as attorneys before its bar.
Already several ladies have availed
themselves of this opportunity. The
following, from the Washington Star, of
a recent date, explains itself:
In the Supreme Court Of the District, yester-
day Mrs. Belva a. lockwood and Mrs. l. J.
Hall-Grafain made application, through Fran
els Miller for admission 10 the bar. The appli-
cation was referred 10 MessrS- Hine, Appleby
and Fendall, the examining committee The
ladies yesterday afternoon passed sufficient
examination as 10 proficiency.
Commenting on this the Washington
Chronicle says:
1--WE have now a lady lawyer in the Courts
What would WashingtOnians have said TO this
In anti-bellum days?"
Truly the legal talent of the country
is progressing, even though it does
"hasten slowly"
