LETTER FROM HON. JOHN T. CROOKS.

SYRACUSE PRECINCT, Jan. IL, 1872.
Editor Democrat.
Dean SrR:-I attended the meeting
of the Democratic State Central
Committee at Portland, on the Sth
inst, according to appointment. and
feel gratifed that can say to you
and the Democracy of Old Linn that
the proceedings Of said Committee
were harmonious throughout, and
from the expressions of the dele
gates, relative to their own senti-
ments, and also those of their sever
al counties. we have nothing to fear
from Passive Policy" New De-
partures. or anything else Of the
kind. Relative to the proceedings
of the Committee, I knew that you
would receive them on the evening
of the 9th, through the Herald,
therefore I did not write to you at
that time.
I had the satisfaction while in
Portland of visiting the Insane Asy-
lum. Through the kindness OF Gov.
Grover. and DIR. Ellis, visiting phys
ician. I was conveyed in the doctors
coach through the dense fog that
prevailed at the time, so that We
could see hut short distance. and
had it not been for kind friends ]
could not have found the place. The
Governor was on . visit TO the Asy-
lum, as required BY law, which gave
me good opportunity of seeing the
place. When we arrived at the Asy-
lum grounds We were met by the Su-
perintendent, DIR. Hawthorne, who,
with great kindness. led US through
the several wards and among the
poor. unfortunate inmates. They
were dressed neat and clean, and
were in good condition, and most OF
them cheerful and glad to see u.s.
We had full view of their beds,
dining rooms, bakery, bath rooms,
and rooms for curing and preserving
meat, &C., all of which certainly is a
credit to the State of Oregon, and to
the State Superintendent. It is, and
well may be, u pattern for other
States in keeping their insane and i'd
lotto, who are thrown upon the sym
pathies of the people.
In conclusion, let me say that the
Insane Asylum of Oregon is well
conducted and in good hands. DR..
Hawthorne, and Mr.. j. Kenworthy,
his assistant, are accomplished gen
tlemen who know their duty and in
tend to do it. From long acquaint-
ance with the Doctor, l feel we'll as
sured that any one wishing to visit
the Asylum will be waited on with
pleasure. I hereby return my sin
cere thanks to them, and also to
Gov. Grover and DIR. Ellis, for their
kind aid, without which l could not
have accomplished my wish.
Yours with due respect,
JOHN T. Crooks.

AN UNPLEAsANTNEss.- learn
from Portland papers that on last
Wednesday, in that city, an alterca-
ton took place between Sylvester
Pennoyer, Esq, late editor of the
Herald, and James O'Meara, Esq, ed
itor of the Bulletin. occasioned by a
number of articles recently appearing
in the latter paper, rejecting upon
Mr.. Pennoyer. We give the circum-
stances as We find them reported in
the morning papers. Mr.. Pennoyer
had some time since waited upon Mr..
O'Meara, and notified him that such
personal attacks must cease, but on
Wednesday morning very severe
article appeared in the Bulletin. Mr.
Pennoyer met Mr.. O'Meara in Rich
ardson's auetion rooms, and, approach
ing him, deliberately spit mouthful
of tobacco juice into his face, and
struck him with his cane. O'Meara
stepped back and drew a pistol; but
further hostilities were prevented by
the crowd. The gentlemen soon
met again outside, when Mr.. O'Meara
charged Mr.. Pennoyer with coming
upon him unawares, when the latter
threw away his cane, and told Mr..
O'Meara to throw down his pistol,
and then asked him if he was not sat
isfed. No further demonstrations
occurred. Mr.. Pennoyer was subse-
quently fined SO and costs for as
sault, and now all Is quiet on the
eWallamet."

PAssIVITy DENOUNCED.

We learn from the East Portland
Era that at the meeting of the Dem
ocratic State Central Committee, last
week, there was exhibited a unity
of sentiment truly cheering. Cover
nor Grover, Hons. Benjamin Hayden,
John F. Miller, and other gentlemen
made very forcible speeches against
the "passive policy" 1t was gener-
ally argued that the policy was in con-
fiict with the best interests of the
party-that it meant party suicide
There was no necessity for such a
step; for by it all would be lost and
nothing gained. The future was not
so dark and unpromising as the timid
would have it, nor was the vote re-
ceived by Seymour and Blair in the
last Presidential contest indicative of
the real strength of the party. 1t
was generally known with what feel
ing of flukewarmness their nominations
We're received. There was not that
enthusiasm with which the names of
popular candidates are usually well
coined This co1dness continued
throughout the campaign and many
many Democratic districts failed to
poll their usual vote and there was no
increase accordingly in the vote of
the opposition. As an experiment
the "new departure" was a failure
and warning against all future eff
forts looking toward a change of base.
The sentiment of the Democratic
hosts was for the principles that had
won glory and renown and the party
would support none other. In the
future the party would continue to be
for the right and for the right only.
Such was the tone of the meeting,
and we are assured that it is only the
reflection of the sentiment of the De-
mocracy of the State. Oregon is not
for the passive policy, and the men,
bers of the Committee, whose utter
ances we have mentioned, spoke out
for the people in the right terms, and
they will find that their opposition to
policy that means treason to princi-
Piles and right, will be sustained
The Committee had duty to per-
form, it did that duty well and the
people will thank its members.
