! TmE oREGoNIAN SATISFIED.

The Oregonian demanded the pa
pers for the assertion, that Mat Car
penter and Ben Butler had given it as
their opinion, that the law as it now
stands with the late amendments to
the constitution, gave women the right to
vote. The New Northwest has furnished
the papers sufficient to wipe away the
doubt which seemed to be lingering in
the mind of tho Oregonian man, and
we presume that The Oregonian would
now desire to be enlightened as to the
the " itself which extends that right,
even to the women of Oregon. We
refer the editor to the New Northwest
for the Information, and if the editor
Of that paper can not conveniently
produce it, please apply to the Office Of
the Liberal REPUBLICAN, Dallas,
Read up Brother Oregonian, we fear
you are getting rusty. The only
reason that can be assigned, for refus-
ing to allow women to vote in the
United States is, the blind prejudice of
an old fogy judiciary

WHAT THE II EOPLER INTEND TO
DO.

We have been in several Of the NJ most
important OF the valley counties recent.
", and to us there can be no mistakiu
the feelings Of the people in respect to
the election of our next Congressman
to Eli the vacancy. The evident lnten
tion of the people, irrespective Of party
ties, is to support the best man for that
Office this fall, and this talk in some
of the party press, about party name
and party usagses, is simply stuff, wiErb
the people will disregard at the polls
on election day and vote straight for the
best man, no matter by what party he
may be put forward. We intend to
seud the LIBERAL REpuBLIcAN to
two thousand new subscribers within
forty days. Let the people lock TO
this matter Immediately and see to it,
that some man who is worthy their
support is plsced in nomination and
sent to Congress this fall, put on your
manhood and scorn longer to tamely
submit to the lash of the party whip,
or the sophistry Of the partizan.
The people are the righJul sover-
eigns of this conntry, aud now in the
State of Oregon, let them prove their
power by rising up in their majesty.
and disregarding that groyeling spirit
which belongs only to abject slaves, put
on their satin robe of sovereignty, and
discarding scum and political CLAP
trap and scorning to listen to silly fools
and political demagoeues, 20 to the
polls on the appointed day, ard vote
tor g man, not thing, not lex
spittle, not misnomer or ringite, but
n~aa of integrity who will nnineh
ingly stand by their interests. let us
sink for once the petty partizan in the
noble patriot. aud come up to the stan
dard of men who intend to establish

Mexicans congregnted at Pablo Sandovafs 8

citement ran high until daylight, when row
occurred. Knives were drawn and freely used'
Not single shot was fired. After long
struggle tho Indians became masters ant the
Mexicans fled, leaving several fatally wounded.
Pablo Sandoyal, whose family was there re-
fused to leave. He was taken prisoner and

ton Of carrying him off to kill him, or Of TAX

says:
The notorious Captain Wirz was then ser.

his treatment Of Federal aud Union prisoners.
that if Wriz deserves hanging, Captain Girls

This Captain Griswold is como - hr tnow~

recently been appointed by the President a. n
Special Agent of the postoflice Department ia

Wirz could Only have avoided punishment long
enough to have voted tho Republican ticket,
and possibly to have cxerted some little per-
sonal influence il behalf oftho Administration:
Mosby and GriSwold are doing. he would
have escaped the halter to become favorite
of the President, aud perhaps Federal ofdce-
holder Eceni"y he'os.
If Grant could perpetuate himself in
power, and raise himself from Press
ident to Emperor, he would not Only
strike hands with rebels who have
committed overt acts Of treason, but he
would search the gloomy regions of
the internal pit to fnd among those
Icgions one who cxeelod in wit, to

IMPORTANT DECISIONS.

The Supreme Court of the State Of
Oregon now in session, have decided
the case of WhitloE VS. Reace, which
involved the whole towusite Of
Lafayette, in favor Of Whitlow; revers
ing the decision of the Circuit Court, and
giving the whole townsite, continuing
one hundred and sixty acres, to
Whitlow and the heirs of Perkins,
The reasoning of the Court is that, as
Perkins settled upon the land in l849,
his title became absolute from that
date bs virtue of the donation law OF
1850, and that although after his
settlement and prior to the passage o.
the donation law, he absolutely
abandoned or dedicated it for the
purpose of townsite, yet the act was a
nulity, and that now the heirs of Per-
kins have right and good title to
the property held Tor years undisturb-
ed, by the present occupiers, who were
encouraged to purchase aud improve by
the declarations and conduct of the
ancestor. This may be good law, bat we
utterly fail to see the equity Of the case,
nor are we convinced that such is the
law. The case will 90 to the the SUI
preme Court of the United States for
reversal.

THE FINAL PROOF.

of the Republican votes Of the two Houses of
congress on the back pay proposition, a ma
Jorlty OF eight was against it of the Demos
cratic votes there was a majority Of min eteen for
it. -RuNetR.
This simply shows clearly what we
have of.en avcred, that both the old
parties have become hopelessly corrupt.
There is one thing connected with this
matter which it might be veil to bring
to the notice cf the masses of the peo~
pie, as it is admitted they, as such,
are honest, and that is this: While
with great unanimity the people and
press denounce the late salsry bill, as
thleving measure to steal the peoples
money, they seem to entirely overlook
the fact, that if the majority of the
members of Congress who passed that
bill. are in consequence thereof, band
OF thieves, then Gran, cr1iei of
the band, and the hlgsest thief in the
crowd. Grant as President could and
should have ve!oel this thi ewing bill
the people gave Grant the power, as
President for the express purpose of
vetoing all bills which were enacted to
rob the PEOPLE they expected and had
a right to expect, that Grant would
veto that bill, but Grant deliberately and
of reconciliation and malice aforo-
thought, committed that larceny
contrary to equity and good
conscience, aud against the peace aud
dignity Of the good people of this
nation, if indeed larceny it be at oil
II any man shall say, it was wrong
in the members who passed that bill
aud right per Sc for the President TO
approve it, he is falsifer of the truth
and demagoguo of the first class,
devoid of principle, and is whited |
sepulchcr filled with lies and uaclcan,
ness. Some people say. it ia true tn.
act was robbery, but Grant unoxperi-
enced as pohtician ignorantly and |
innocently signed the bill without con- /
siderins its real effect, but the bill |
doubled his salary and We think he
knew what he was dong; but suppose
he did not, then the whole thin. ta-
zeU together shows conclusiYely whai |
We have often said Grant is either a
Snave or foel or a strange mixture Of
10Th. Let some Of his earnest and
bic worshipers, undertake the task Of
'lacinG him rjeh: before the people Oh
hat subject, aud let tho hypocritc
eep silence until he can do that.o place
i'm sidoby side the thieving Congress,
IAN he parades so prominently before
he public. A new party must be or
anized, and until then, the Liberals

no sense IN protesting to despise money

Tell us something rev Mr.. Bulletin
everybody knows that oncy is The
ruling love of the Ring, and that as
they have done in the past, so they
expect 10 the future, accomplish all
their political schemes by and through
the use of money, but the people are
beginning to conclude, that there is
fneh a thing IS honesty and honorable
lie unmlxed with theft, hypocracy and
public plumber, and also that money,
misnomers, bigamy, deception, fraud
aud continued premeditated rascaity,
are not essentials, really necessary to
qualify man for q high position OF
honor aud trust; The actual domonstra
zion of all of which we make no doubt,
the Bulletin will live to see.
