SALEM Sent. II


The "dcad lock" in the Senate con-
times. After meeting in the morn
ing, that body took two ballots for
Chief Clerk, with the same result as
on the previous day, and adjourned
in disgust until tomorrow Thursday
morning at IL o'clock. The House
met and sat around with its fingers
in its capacious mouth for about an
hour, and finally adjourned also, to
await the further action of the Senate
Of course there is good deal of
feeling on this subject of the non-or-
ganization of the Senate, and the
Republicans are cursins loud and
deep over the matter. They had pre-
pared many nice little partisan dish
that they desired to serve up as soon
as the Legislative machine got to
grinding. and this delay causes them
to chafe with furious impatience. 1t
also slaves off the Senatorial contest
and continues to aggravate the anxiety
of the aspirants for that exalted "po.
sish,' besides drawing heavily on their
purses to keep their blowers and
strikers in provender and "n:tro- -glyc-
erine." Meanwhile the Democrats
are nonchalantly Indifferent, chewing
the quid of quiet satisfaction and look
ing upon the whole thing as delight
ful farce of which they were simpl,
amused spectators. The general i'm
preston among Democrats is thatthere
is very little needed legislation that
would be likely to be accomplished
by the Radical majority of this Legis-
lature, and as the Democrats have lost
no U. S. Senator and don't expec. to
find one, they see no special neces-
sity of speedy organization. 1t will
cost the tax paying people much less
if no organization were effected dur
ing the session, and l believe it would
meet with the gratified applause of at
least every Democrat in the State. 1t
is thought, however, that somebody
will shortly weaken, and that per.
manent organization of the Senate
will speedily ensue.

POLITIcs IN EASTERN OREGON.
FENDLEToN, Oregon,

Editor Democrat:
To-day the Louisville farce is enact.
cd, aud Brick Pomeroy's National
Convention settles tho fate of the na-
ton. Republicans everywhere are
jubilant, hoping AID conjuring up their
faith to believe that the nominations
there made will draw from Greeley
sufficient Strength to elect and keep
in power the present incumbent for an.
other four years. Scarcely is the
Louisville convention ever spoken oil
fere, except by Republicans; they are
continually talking of it, telling OF its
huge proportions, urging Democrats
to stick to the time honored principles
of Democracy, and not let the good
old ship of state that has brought us
through so many political storms go
down. Brick Pomeroy's paper is ca.
gerly sought for by Republicans, and
by them freely distributed among
Democrats whom they suspect as be.
ing dissatisfied with Greeley.
As general thing throughout this
county that paper has been discarded
by Democrats, but to some extent the
subscription has been made good by
Republicans.
This county will give an increased
majority for Greeley, as we will get
a considerable portion of the Repub-
lican vote and nearly the entire Dem
ocratic vote. have taken considcra.
ble pains 10 find out the feelings OF
the Democrats throughout the county
and can find out very few who assert
positively that they will, under no
circumstances, vote for Greeley, and
those few are of that class that have
no influence at home or abroad, gcner-
ally men who left the South at the be-
ginning of the war and now desire TO
fight the war over.
No man, even among the Pomcroy
conventionists, claims even a shadow
of chance TO elect the nominee OF
that convention, but claim they must
maintain intact the principles of Dem
ocracy and keep up the organization.
They admit that the reelection OF
Grant will ruin us and destroy the
last hope Of Republican government
but still refuse to support Greeley be-
cause he is not Democrat, and still
are willing to concede that his elec-
ton will, to a great extent, restore
peace to the country.
Party prejudice has ruled tho coun-
try long enough. 1t appears to me
that men who have the good of the
country at heart should be willing to
forego their former prejudices when
there is prospect thereby to rid the
country OF the petty tyrant who now
SO arrogantly domineers over the peo.
pie of this once happy land. Any
ono who will reflect for a moment
will not fail to see that the result of
the Louisville Convention, if anything
is accomplished, will be to elect Grant,
thereby proving conclusively that
what few Democrats are in favor of
that convention are acting in concert
with the Radicals and will, no doubt,
in the future be found marching in
line with the administration party.

Kansas is doing her best to get rid
of Senator Pomeroy, who secured his
seat by open and unblushing bribery.
But Mr.. Pomeroy is an intimate friend
of the President, who has promised to
make him Secretary of the Interior in
case he is disgraced from the Senate.
This is civil service reform with a
vengeance.

AS a proof of the venality and
corruption of the Administration the
New York World calls attention to
the. statesment of a well-infcrmed
Pennsylvania correspondent that the
manipulators of the Presidents ring
in that state are preparing to put the
enormous sum of 1000, 900 into
this conflict. Simon Cameron alone
gave 81 100000. The chief field of
corruption is to be Philadelphia. As
the Board of Aldermen is obliged to
appoint a Democrat either for the
registration or on the election board,
they select their man and pay him
for keeping his eyes shut. Cameron
has made his own ticket in Phil
adelphia. VIM. B. Mann, in the
meeting of the state Central Com
mittee, called for the purpose of
nominating another candidate for
Governor, and throwing Hartranft
over to appease the wrath of the
whale declared that the city would
give 100000 Republican majority,
and he knows how it can be done.

ing and the report of Committee on
Credentials was read, showing that
eleven Democrats and eleven Repub-
licans were entitled to seats. 1t also
recited that Mr.. Mosher (Democrat)
claimed seat from Douglas by vir-

result, when recess was taken for

The Statesman presumes to call in
to question the motives of Hon. Sam.
Brown, of Marion, IN asking that the
Senate Committee on credentials be
allowed time to examine the basis of
the claims Of parties claiming seats in
that body. The Salem organ seems
to think that Republican members of
the Legislature should decide all ques-
tions to conserve the interests of their
party, regardless of right or wrong.
1t certainly augurs well tor the inter-
ests of the people to see Republican
Senator dare to do right in defiance
of the party lash, which the Statesman
seems desirous of welding so unmer-
cifully. We are much mistaken in
the character of Hon Sam. Brown, of
Marion, if he can be driven from
what he copceives to be his duty by
so puerile an attempt at intimidation.
