find the following in relation to Ore
CONS notorious Senator:
Butler still loves to talk Of its John

Senator from Oregon. 1t is the favor

0John was a smart fellow, but a

1t has been the boast of Senator
Mitchell Nipple that in spite Of all the
scandalous facts that have come out
about him, the people OF his old home
believe and trust in him. This is not
so. | have taken pains to talk with
the people here, and find that only a
few lawyers, former friends of Hip
pie, have any sympathy for him what
ever.
[ discovered to-day another chapter
in the dismal history of John Mitchell
Hipple. In an interview between
Miss Sadie Hoon, at Franklin, with
your correspondent, she said that her
husband cruelty abused her during
their married life.
I also discovered that the date of
Uipples divorce from bis wilo was
not until 1863 instead of 1867. In

FRIDAY ..........N NOVEMBER 3, 1873,
Party ANrAGoNrsM.


Just now there are thousands of
people whose hostility to the Demo
cratic party is simply chronic, while
their dislike Of the Republican party
grows out Of personal knowledge and
experience of lis leaders. They see
in it all the faults of the Democratic
party, and something more. Put the
Platforms Of the two together, or the
men together, or the antecedents of
either side together, and there is am
pie cause for any reasonable amount
OF antagonism, 1t is more than ever
the old Democracy against the old
Federalism, for even Jefferson and
Hamilton differed less as to the pow
ers and duties of the Government
than the Democrats and Republicans
Of the present day. Parties have be-
come debauched and rotten by vic
tory, war and prosperity, but the di-
viding line is as marked as ever it
was, except that the old Federalists
claimed much less power than modern
miscalled Republicans, and except
that the old Federal leaders were
pure and patriotic men, led by Wash
ington, Adams, Hamilton and Jay,
while men as pure and patriotic upon
the other side were led by Jefferson,
Madison, Monroe, Gallatn, and later
by Jackson. Opposition to the war
of 1872 and the Hartford Convention
killed the former, but from their graves
have sprung a body of men claim
ing all the concentrated power Of the
ole Federal party, but lacking their
essentials of great purity and great
unselfshness. One has but to read
Of the treatment of States like Louisi-
ana, OF the direct interference even
with the sword with the people Of
other States in order to carry cleo
tions for the dominant party, to be
convinced both of the necessity and
duty ofantagonism against the domi-
nant party.

A LAUGHABLB INoIDENT-Dur-
ing the fire at Chemeketa Hotel at
at Salem, Nov 0, a very laughable iu-
cldent occurred, in which one of the
chief men of the Department played a
prominent part. One line of hose
was taken through the parlor window,
so as to get at the fire in the second
story. AT last cry came to slight
upon the hose" when the aforesaid
chief man laid to, and began to heave
for dear life, The room was pretty
full Of smoke and not very light, and
abutting the window frame from the
floor to the ceiling, stood an immense
mirror AS he tugged faithfully at
the hose, he raised his eyes and be.
held his reflection pulling in the op-
posite direction. He yelled at the
fellow to let go, but be paid no atten-
tion, AT last iorbearance ceased to
be virtue, when he rushed at him
with upliited trumpet and came in
contact with the mirror His feelings
can better be imagined than described!
The joke is on him, and he is able to
stand it,

GENERAL RYAN,-From eastern
dispatches, we learn that Gen. Ryan,
who was captured on the THginiaS
aud executed by the Cuban authori-
ties at Santiago de Cuba, was born in
Toronto, Canada, in 1913; that he
entered the volunteer army of the
United States at Buffalo, New York,
in 1869, as Lieutenant in the One
Hundred and Thirty-seventh New
York Infantry, and that after the war
no went to Helena, Montana, where
he was engaged in business for some
time.

the SPIRIT OF WAR.

Rumors Of a contemplated war be
tween Spain and the United Statel
daily flashes across the wires, in con
sequence of the slaughter of the Off
GERS and crew of the steamer "Vir.
ginus," at Santiago de Cuba by the
Spanish authorities. During the first
few days after the reception of the
news the utmost excitement prevailed
in the Eastern cities, and the most in
famatory and clamorous demands for
vengeance upon Spain were INDUCED
in. 1t is especially noticeable that
Administration organs are vehement
in their demands for war and most
urgent in their appeals for revenge
That Grant would delight in so pro.
pitious an opportunity to perpetuate
his fast waning power there can be
no doubt, but that the American peo..
pie are prepared for so grave an
emergency is extremely doubtful.
True, the massacre of the Virgmius
crew was most atrocious and mex
cusable, as is always the slaughter of
men without due process of law; but
they had taken their lives into their
own hands in this expedition and had
thus outlawed themselves from the
protection of our Government. If
the American Government proposes
to make itself the champion Of every
illibustering expedition which hap.
pens to fit itself out in American wa
.ers and sail under the American flag,
our foreign complications will shortly
nave no limit and our national debt
will be beyond computation,
In the meantime nothing will be
lone with the Spanish-Cuban affair
Until Congsess meets next Monday.
