FOREST GROVE POLITICAL GOSSIP.

A much esteemed friend, writing us
from Forest Grove, says:
have a hint from Yamhill that there
are parties there who are trying to use
the NORTHWEST as an opening wedge
TO split the Republican party. General
Coffin and Dave Logan are the prime
movers in this affair. They are work
ing through a secret organization that
was organized at Salem, and have a
branch in Portland, in the interest of
Judge Boise for the Senate, and in ha-
tired Of Ben Holiday. Some of them
have been out in our county, and, from
what | can hear on the outside, their
plans will come to grief. So mote it be.
We give the above for what il is
worth. If such parties are trying to
circulate the NEW NORTHWEST it is
news TO US, but we are very much
obliged to them and if the Republican
party swamps itself in its opposition to
the one issue Of the day, We are ready to
let it swamp. We feel toward the polit-
ical parties just as Artemus Ward felt
about his wife's relations: we are will
ing to sacrifice all of them upon the al
tar Of right; and while we would gladly
see the Republican party continue to
occupy the foremost seat in the car OF
human progression, alas, alas! it no
longer progresses, and We must build
our hopes upon the rock of truth, while
IL dead Democracy and the sick Re-
publicans float together adOwn time:

REMARKABLE CURES.-Dr. AbOTn,
the celebrated oculist and aurist, is still
continuing his wonderful cures. We
called upon n man yesterday, VIM.
Gaddy, OF Nez Perce county, Idaho, who
was totally blind in one eye, and could
only see n little through the other two
months ago, and who had been afflicted
that way for ten years previous. n few
weeks ago he placed himself under the
care of the doctor, and now he can see
as well as he could in his youngest days.
We saw this man when almost blind,
and could hardly believe it was the same
man when we saw him yesterday, so
much was he changed in looks. This is
certainly very remarkable cure.
A young woman from Eugene is also
under the doctors care, to be cured of
deafness. a week ago she could hardly
hear loud sound, but now she can hear
the ticking of watch foot from her.
Another aged woman, n Mrs. Mcclure,
who lives on the corner of Seventh and
Columbia streets, has been troubled so
much with sore eyes for the past five
years that she could barely see person
in a room. She placed herself under
the care of DIR. Aborn week ago, and
now she can see distinctly objects at a
long distance, and all soreness and ten
derness have left the eyes. These facts
speak for themselves, and there is no
necessity for cOmments.-Herdld.

mOur Brooklyn friends are having
hard time battling with the enemies of
honest suffrage. The men who have
stuffed the ballOt-boXes are now stealing
the fraudulent returns, both originals
and duDIicates. Where their enemies
both lie and steal, honest men fight with
unequal weapons"
So saws the New York Tribune in re-
cent issue, and we wonder why IL does
NOT demand that the ballot shall be
taken from men who so terribly abuse
their privileges. This is the reason as
signed for having taken the ballot from
the women of New Jersey! 1t IS as
serted by the opponents of wOmans en-
franchisement, that women III tnat
State behaved very naughtlly at the
polls, that they disguised themselves,
and repeated their votes, and all that,
and so their rights and privileges were
abridged rs proper punishment.
We'll admit it although facts do not
justify all that our opponents have said
about the New Jersey women. If the
ballot ought to have been taken from
women because they abused their priv
ileges, rs claimed, why not deal pre-
cisely so with men for the same reason? =?
The Tribune tells us how men voters not
only stuffed the ballOt-bOXes, but how
they steal the fraudulent returns. Why
not demand that the ballot be taken
from these lying, thieving men? All!
gentlemen, il is because you are unfair
and unjust towards women that you dis
criminate against them, and make laws
that bear heavily and sometimes op-
pressively upon them. You have one
mode of reasoning for women and an
other for men. We protest against this
injustice and inequality Woman s

directions and using your medicines Tor a

my ills are removed; my hearing continues
good, my lungs, believe, are sound, and the

and bronchial affections in about four weeks.
May You live long TO bless the world by reliev-

Miss Anthony's Reception.

The friends of Miss Susan B. Anthony,
to the number of about fifty, comprising
the more prominent of the leaders of
the Suffrage movement, assembled in
the parlOTs of the Grand Hotel last
evening. After an hour spent in social

guests were ushered into the spacious

was done. After the music of the knives

THE MARsH-HOXTER LETTER.

FOREST GROVE, Jan. Sd, 1872.
EDITOR NEW NORTHWEST:
This community has been cOnsidera-
bly, excited and amused over certain
communication from the pen of one Of
the Marsh brothers, which appeared in
recent issue of the Bulletin over the
signature of Mrs. Hoxter These Marshes
are members of the Forest Grove Facul-
ty, and have frequently made them
selves ridiculous by their opposition to
Woman Suffrage. OF course it was not
intended that the Marsh-y part of the afs
fair would be made public, but, aside
from the fact that everybody knows the
arguments (?) therein given by heart,
the parties concerned were careless with
the "copy" There was some sympathy
here for Mrs. Hoxter among anti-suf-
fragists after you "hayed" her so effect
ually, but the Marsh defense has coun-
teracted it. We are looking with much
interest for your "reply," but we are
certain of one thing: it will not be writ
ten by n man. Yours for the right.
INVESTIGATOR.
For the benefit of those of our readers
who do not get the Oregon Bulletin il is
necessary to explain that Mrs. Hoxter
rallied her forces after our structures
upon her were published in the NEW
NORTHWEST, and that she came back
at us i'm the Bulletin with n two column
article of platitudes and fustian, to
which we plainly but courteOusly re-
piled through the same paper. The
above racy expose from Forest Grove is
in relation to this matter.
