Il Tie Democratic press Of Oregon
is still unanimous, we believe, in its
Sorntul reputation of the llo-ncm-
mating, Or passive scheme proposed
by the Missouri Republican,. About
Washington, however, aid other
sections aud States Of the country,
the measure still hasits enthusiastic
advocates. Even Senator Kelly,
from this State, is reported by the
New York World as being III favor
Of tic pa's'yc policy, ard iftlr qles-
tion Of acceptance Or rejection were
left to his decision alone, he would
determine III itstavor /; but in con-
sisleration Of the fact that his party
at home were opposed to the meas
ure, he must remain mum. This is
tie suhtitce O. IL position as Civ
en- by the World. We Lave TO
disposition to tiid fault with the
Democracy of Oregon, or anywhere
else, fr maintaining a position OF
determined opposition to the possive
scheme. Tie defeat Of the project
will elicit no worls of regret from
our pen at present at least. II dis
affected Republicans should hold a
convention and nominaR Sumner,
or one Of that ilk, aid then the De
mocracy should all join in and vote
for him, as this passive scheme COR
templates, there is no telling how
many votes woul'lsbe cast; but 1t
the Democracy will continue to run
in the old channel, then we cant form
a pretty fair opinion Of abont the
number of votes tEey will cast. We
are sanguine of beating a candidate
for President nominated by a Dem
ocratic Convention. May we not
urge You, then, Democrats, in the
martial language Of our neigllbor, to
"once more marshal the Democratic
clans, and re-kildIe tie Democratic
watch-fircs."

As an evidence of the intense Sc
verify Of tie Stow storm which ex-
tended along the lire of the Pacific
railroad during the last month, it is
said that tie buffaloes gathered
about the trains which were stuck
in the snow banks, and in spite Of
human voices, whistliug Of the en-
gine, and shots from pistols, crowd
cd close up for shelter to the cars,
and stood with their heads bowed,
patiently waiting for the storm to
pass; but while thus situated, quite
a number of them were observed to
fall dead in their tracks, from the
cold. When the trains began to
move again, the track, near one
train, was fairly lined with these
huge, shaggy, frozen monsters.

In commenting upon the absurd;-

gives the following letter Of All

The Democratic council, recently
held at Portland, appointed the

H State convention to be held on
the 10th Of April next, and the

In view of the unsettled condition
of the Democratic family, the i'm
possibility Of telling now whether
another ''new Departure or a gen.
eral game of ''possum," or some
other thing may, or may not be

Our nelghbor OF the DcmocFW
congratulates us OIL . fat appoint
ment when Attorney General VIII
liams is elected Vice President OF
the United States, because the REG-
,,rER happens to be the first Re
publican Journal to mention his
name in that connection. five say
to Mr.. Brown that we had not
thought Of that, he may not believe
us, and yet sich was the case. Our
motive in suggesting the name OF
Attorney General Williams, was to
secure the honor TO the Pacific slope.
In the first place, we desire to have
the Republican party triumph al the
lext election. In order that this
may result, it would follow, in the
seconu place, that a good Presiden-
tial ticket should be presented by
the Republican party for the suf
frages ofthe people. II is generally
conceded that General Grant will
be the nominee of the party for
President. For the position Of Vice
President, however, the mind oftlie
party has not centeed upon any
particular individual Names have
been suggested by isolated Journals
here and there throughout the conn-
try, but no one, in particular, has
concentrated any very large sup
port as yet. The name Of Gov.
Booth having been mentioned by a
: California Journal as suitable can
didate, we thought it not inappro-
pirate, but perfectly legitimate aud
proper, for us to indicate our pre-
ference, inasmuch as Oregon pos
sessed the most available man on
the Pacific slope, in point Of talent
and reputation, for any public posi-
tion in the gift ofthe nation. His
ability lies in the reputation which
he, while a member Of the United
States Senate, made for himself in
the minds Of the people, as an able
iurist, and wise and honest states
man. His name is as familiar in
New York and Illinois, as it is III
Oregon, minus the nicknamcs. III
snogninated, he will receive as hearty
a support as any man whom the
Republican party can furnish, and
his election will yield as much gen
cral satisfaction. If the Pacific
slope desires to be honored by be-
ing represented in the Vice Tresi-
deucy, there must be agitation,
there must.bo concert Of action. No
obscure man can hope to create
rifle in Eastern or Western policies
from this far off slope but Attor-
ney General Williams, now high in
political confidence and influence,
may, by judicious and united
effort, be urged with probabilities
Ofsuccess.,

The Democratic Era, in a long
editorial written to show that the
passive scheme is not the departure
now needed by the Democracy,
urges that tile election Of Greeley.
Sumner, or any Of that class ofsoc-
heads, would fail to restore the gov
crnment ofa Jefferson, or o Jack
son, etc. Oregon Democracy is
now representediu III the United States
Senate, we have learned since we
came here, by a Mr.. Kelley. The
New York World represents this
sample Democrat as being in favor
of the passive scheme, but afraid to
advocate it openly because many, if
not all, OF his constituents at home
are opposed toi it. We would like
to inquire, how much of a resem-
blaLce to Jacksonian individuality,
and fearless independence, aid love
OF principle, do we see in this truck
ling sychophancy ofSenator Kelley?
Did Gen. Jackson ever stop to ask
his constituency as to what he
should believe, or what policy, or
course he should pursue, after his
judgment was made up? How
much nearer would the government
ofa Kelley approach that of Gen.
Jackson, than the government ola
Greeley? And yet Senator Kelley
is a fair sample Of Democratic lead

TRUMBULL AND LOGAN.


There il, perhaps, no man in the
West whom Eastern people think moro
about ;lnn Lyman 'frlmbull Of Chi
cago; he is titty-sevcn years old, a ma
tive Of Connecticut, and he belongs to
the old Trmbnll family. The origi-
nal name of this family Is said to have
been Turnbull. He is of English de
scent, and went to Georgia early in lif0
to teach school. and there I've was adj
mitted to the bar. From Georgia he
removed to Illinois, where he began to
practice law, and as early as 1910 ho
went to the Legislature OF the Prairie
State. Thirty years ago he was Secre-
tary of State Of Illinois, and twenty
three years ago Justice of its Supreme
Court. Although he was elected tothe
Lower House Congress he never took
his scat, but was made Senator before
the time came. defeating Abraham
Lincoln by the mid Of the anti-Lecomp-
ton Democrats. and with Iincoln's en-
dorsement. When Lincoln was ap-
piled to by the Republicans and asked
whethertIey should vote for Trumbull,
he answered: Certainly, between
Lyman Tumbull and any other Dem.
ocrat there can be no question. Don't
stop for me-" Mr.. Trumbull has now
been more than sixteen years in tho
Senate. At the head Of the Judiciary
Committee he has had charge of all
legislation affecting the extinction of
slavery, the question of civil rights to
the late slaves. and the restoration Of
the Union as we find it. lie il a Wild
over with several children. lie La
ahout5 feet II inches high. and weighs
l50 pounds. In temperament lie ia
calm, discriminating, and judicial /; in
appearance thin, grave, and almost
clerical; he Il worth about 100000 In
money, livesabstemiOusly and quietly,
loves his place in the Senate, and Is be-
Iieved to be without ambition to pass
above it. His colleague, General I4o-
gan, Il of Irish descent, although born
in Illinois, and he was educated in
AChtuNNl' IlC WIS NitiuItGIlANtSltI
in the war with Meyico, got into poll
tics twenty-five years ago, and contin-
ued a Democrat up to tile beginning Of
the war. Logan Is a black haired,
dark skinned, energetic man Of much
decision and bollnesss. He has been
quite attentive and thoughtful since ho
entered the Senate. His colleague and
himself stand nearly in the same rela-
tion to the Federal Administration,
although its said that Mr.. Logan is
now on very friendly terms with tho
President. They differ entirely on tho
civil service andsimilar questions, I4o-
gan having some notion that a perma-
nent civil service will be terrible
tyranny, and T'rumbull believing that,
as it stands, civil service is a terrible
indecency. General Logan recently
became a member of the Methodist
Church, ana arumbull Is 4 PresbyteFi-
an. The recently reported interview
of the representative of Kentucky
journal with Senator Trumbull Is ut-
terly without foundation In fact.

a course of Hosteters Stomach Bitters

1t Is composed exclusively Of pure vege-
table productions, viz: the essential
principal of Monongahela Rye, and the
most efieacious- tonic and alternative
roots, barks, and gums known to medical
bobanists. Hence, it is absolutely safe,
medicine, and no tincture of the Phar-

purity, or In the variety of its objects,
and its comprehensive results. Happily
