Last week he devoted a speech OF
four hours In an elaborate arraign-
lnent OF President Grant, officially
and personally, expressed in lar
guage both severe and bitter. lie
charged the President with being a
giit-taker, a nepotist, a selfish plens-
ure-secker, spending his time with
fast horses in travelling about the
country, and lettering at seaside re-
sorts. These charges have been
made before. They have rolled out
in clouds from Democratic presses
and from the lungs OF Democratic
orators. They lave been answered
over and over again TO the entire
satisfaction of the people; ard now,
their rc-uttcmrce by Sumner, only
shows to what depths Of meanness
a lig man may descend when he

a GLORIOUS VICTORY.

1t is now clearly established that
the State has gone largely Repub-
lican. Judge Wilson las been
elected to ong,'ess by a splendid
majority, AMI thirty-tllree of the
tolty-ninc representatives. in the
State Legislature lave been elected,
and it is thought that we have a
majority in the >enate. We lave
a two-third vote IN the House, at
any rate. he victory is most
glorious one. 1t is far beyond the
most sanguine anticipation. We
were almost sure of carrying the
State, but just that, and "nothing
more" We had not expected so
many votes in our favor. It had
never crossed our mind that every
county in the tate would chronicle
Republican Gains. he result is all
the more pleasurablc from this fact.
1t shows the spirit OF reform is not
restricted to localities, but per-
meates the whole mass. 1t shows
that the people in every valley and
mountain-side, lave opened their
eyes to the real interests Of the tate.
No more class legislation, says this
victory. No more oppression. No
more fraud. No more dishonesty.
No more lethargy. t means re-
peal that | itigant iniquity. Wipe
out that swamp Land monopoly.
Attend to that Lock and Canal
swindle, and, losing sight of self,
let every effort of the legislature
be to promote the public interest.
The influence of this victory upon
the country at large will be most
potent. 1t will cause the hearts of
millions ofRepublicans torcjoice. 1t
will in a corresponding degree dis
courage those Of the opposition who
have anxiously looked for the moral
support tlat a Democratic victory
would furnish. II is tie opening
GUN of the Presidential campaign,
and gives no uncertain sound. The
country understands it. Republi-
cans understand it. Liberals and
Democrats understand it. 1t not
only means reform in tie manage
ment of state affairs, but it means
Grot 0ad prlgres. Oregon, by
tbs ictory, plants herself squarely
upon the platform Of true Republi-
canism. Democracy, as an nlde-
pendent organization, dies with this
defeat. She will now merge into
the Greeley 'rown party, as sold
White Hat" and "Woodpecker''
will manipulate that organization
until next November.
