THE Salem Statesman says that
Ben. Hayden objected i'll the Demo

lamette Falls canal, lock and dam
swindle." Now, we beg leave to in.
form the Statesman that there is not
even a semblance of truth in it's as.
sertion. Mr.. Hayden warmly en-.
dorsed the Lock measure and stated
that ne believed it would be q tower
of strength to the Democratic party
in the present campaign. Really, this
thing of having to continually set oul
Radical brethren right upon these
questions of veracity is becoming de
cidedly irksome. Can't they assert Z
fact onc in a while, by way of vari

why does it not openly denounce

UNsoPHIsTICATED.-Our neighbor
over the way denies that the great
Railroad king dictated the terms upon
which the present Radical campaign
should be made in this State. Well,
as he is only recently from Suckerdom
and wasn't on the inside OF the ring at
the late State Convention we take it
for granted that he is honest in his as
sertions; but the Portland politicians
would laugh him out OF countenance
if he should 20 down there and
illuminate such green statements as
weekly appear in the Register in re-
gard to this matter. In fact it is so
well understood down there that the
"Juke" bossed the Radical job that
no one pretends to assert to the contra
ry who claims the slightest degree of
sagacity. 1t is well understood that
this is a fight wherein the peoples
rights are thrown into the scale
against a railroad monopoly's selfish
interests; and If our neighbor intends
to champion this sham fight of the
Republicans We want the people to
understand exactly where he and the
rest of the Radical organs stand in the
battle. Come, Bro. Register-you're
a monopoly striker, and you can't get
out of it by any unsophisticated de-
mails of the matter.

THE TAT CONVENTION.

We publish on the first page of this
paper the official proceedings of the
late Democratic State Convention
It has never been our fortune to wit
ness an assemblage of partisans who
were so DESTROYS of doing nothing but
good for their party. When it vas
said by a speaker ut Portland, after
the Convention, that ''its deliberations
we're characterized by wisdom in
counsel, unity of purpose and har-
mony in action" the statement found
an echo in the heart of every individ-
ual who witnessed its deliberations
There were no acrimonious discus
sions, no bitter recriminations, no
harsh accusations. All seemed to
feel that upon the result of their de-
alterations hinged the fate of the Do
mocracy of Oregon, not only in this
contest. but for years to come; and
every man acted only from the purest
motives of partisan zeal and unselfish
patriotism.
While the contest was warm and
animated as 10 who should have the
distinguished honor of leading the
Democratic hosts to victory in the
present conflict, yet nothing vas said
which might impair the influence or
weaken the strength of either of the
contestants who might be chosen; and
when the choice fell upon Mr.. Bur-
nett, the warm and spontaneous con-
CALCULATIONS which were shQwered
upon him by his less fortunate com
p%etitors fully attested the noble and
unselfsh spirit which animated their
hearts, and elected the widest mani,
festations OF appreciation and delight
from the vast multitude of witnesses
and participants. Mr.. Helm, of Linn,
was the first to congratulate him and
TO pledge his support and assistance in
bearing the Democratic banner alott
to a glorious victory in June,
The platform is n which must
meet the hearty approval of every
Democrat in the State. It is briet,
pointed, concise and forcible, contain.
ing a patriotic sermon in every sylla-
bic. 1t is devoid OF useless verbiagc
and unmean;ng sentences. II is UNI
mistakable in its differences, conpre-
hensiye in its f%ullnesS, and unsectional
in its spirit and intent. It is n Ire
platform-one eminently suited to the
progressive spirit of the age and one
which meets the fullest wants of our
young and prosperous commonwealth.
With so worthy a candidate and so
acceptable 4 platform the Democracy
of Oregon have nothing to fear in the
approaching struggle. We will retain
our ascendency in the State and add
fresh laurels to our victorious party.

! TIE GERMAN VoTE.-The result of the
elections in this city on Tuesday shows that
the German vote at least is secure from the
Establishments Of mere politicians German
democrats voted for Lawrence and German
republicans for Havemeyer, and the fact that
OBrien was candidate for Mayor was COM
pietely ignored by this part of our population.
There were wild stories about O'Brien's in
duence with the Germans, but his defeat is
only another proof that personal influence
goes for little on election day, and that the
German vote especially is cost from conscien-
tious motives The Germans appear to have
thoroughly canvassed the condition of our
local afihirs among themselves and then to
have recorded their conclusions at the polls

British Press Opinion Of General Grants Position
and Policy-The Sunshine and
SINS Of the Republic
TELEGRAM 70 THE NEW YORK HERALD.

1 LONDON, Nov. 8, 1872.
The result OF tho Presidential election In America
is published in London this morning, and CON-
mented on edItorially by the city press.
The London telegraph believes "Grant deserved
a reelection. and the fact that he has been again
chosen disproves the assertion that republics are
ungrateful."
The Standard makes a violent attack upon the
republican party, "which," 1t says "has done
nationally what Tammany and Fisk did locally
Grant and Greeley are both UNFIT for the position
Of President OF the United States. but OF two evils
we believe the people have made the best choce.n
The Daily Telegraph, referring to the reelection
OF General Grant, says:-'No one deserved better
of his country or IS worthier OF place among the
illustrious men who have twice held the Presiden-
tial ONCE. England has had cause to complain OF
many things, but President Grants policy toward
her has never been wilfuly petulant or hostile"
The telegraph hopes that the United States will
now take care OF Mexico and Cuba; 1t believes
that the West, not the East, demands their atten-
tion.
The Standard upholds the principles on which the
Southern States seeded from the Union as opposed
to republicansm, which 1t denounces as
"the dedication OF the passions OF tempo
rary majority and as identified with personal
and political corruption. In consequence of the
supremacy OF the republican party the States are
loaded with enormous debts the foreign holders OF
their securities receive nothing. The republicans
are responsible also for insurrectlon in Cuba,
anarchy In Mexico and the murder OF the Emperor
Macmillan. The democrats, however, are no bet
ter.n

BOSTON, MASS. Nov. Q, 1873.
A most mysterious and terrible tragedy has been
developed in this city this afternoon the circum-
stances OF which are unparalleled among the null
tipcity OF revolving and strange crimes witch have
taken place in this vicinity recently. The victim.
the assassin and the motive are all unkn0wa. Up,
to this time, and In the absence OF such facts the
event mas caused considerable excitement. 1t
seems that between three and four 0'cOckths aiser
noon some OF the workmen employed In the gas
house at the foot OF Cambridge street discovered
large barrel had 1oated ashore along the banks
or the Charles River Thinking perhaps 1t con-
tained something valuable In liquids contra
band, they pulled 1t in and unpacked It, when they
were horri1ed and ast0nished at the discovery OF
two human legs and human head, the latter
being baldheaded and indicating that the victim
was about fifty years old. Fresh blood was drip
ping from the remnants Of the body, and every
thing seemed to indicate that death AMI
butchery had taken place within q very
few hours. While the workmen were engaged
In removing and caring for the repuIsfve
and sckening mass which they had found, a
ond barrel was seen III the stream, and upon being
brought ashore and opened It was found to contain
the rest of the body-the portion between the neck
and knees. The indications were tnat decaptation D
and amputation were performed with sharp
knife, for when the remains were placed together
in proper position they fitted perfectly and
nicely that the points OF separation could only be
discovered by the traces and ooziDg OF the blood.
None OF the clothing was missing except the
hat, and aside from small flesh wound
on the face, there was nothing to indi-
cate that there had been o struggle. Around
the body there was large rope which tad been
firmly tied, and upon the back, between the outside
and under shirt was gold watch and chain, which
apparently had been secreted there by either the
murdered man or his murderer. Aside from these
articles nothing else was found. The clothing
which he wore was OF the best quality and every
thing seemed to indicate that the man was one In
good circumstances The body was taken charge
