Our Democratic friends have
contended that Congress has the
power to regulate commerce among
tie States, and the present Con.
gress, for the first time, has at
tempted to apply this authority in
adjusting the railway question.
The McCrary bill "tO regulate
commerce by railroad among the
several States'' came to . vote re-
Gently in the House, and how did
the members Of the Democratic
party, the bitter opponents, you
know, Of fsSmonopoly and oppres-
SION" vote on The bill ? Only fve
Democratic members ofthe House
voted for the bili!--DemoCrats
voted almost solidly against the
bill, and it was carried only by
Republican votes! This il another
evidence, plain an unmistakable,
that allthis cry Of the Democracy
ot"opposition to railroad monopoly"
in the past was the;herest clsptrap
and humbug, 70 catch votes. And
every pledge given by the Demo-
cratic platform, ip the present cam.
Paign, of "retrenchment and re-
FORM" should the party be sue.
Cessfal in June, will be treated Just
as has this railway matter BY the
Democracy in Congress.

The National Grange.

Much has been said and writ
ten about the officers Of the Na.
tional Grange, and up to this
time no one has thought of giving
an account of the different offices Of
the organization, which will Ger
tainly prove a more striking history
of the progress of the Order than
the biographies Of the men connect
ed with it. During the year 1867
Q. Il. Kelley, who occupied then,
as now, the position of National
Secretary, resided on his farm in
Sherburn county, Minnesota, and
there the first records. of the new
born organization were kept. SO
extensive were they that until 1870
the hat OF the Secretary was con.
sidered an ample and sufficient re-
ceptacle, and no other provisions
were made.

thus ''set up'' by the Jacksonville
Sentinel: 'a
James G. Tolman is a farmer
and has been Q resident of thic
county for the past twenty years
He has been a Republican since the
organization Of the party, and has
held some Of the most important
Offices of this county. He is vel,
known throughout the State as a
gentleman OF intelligence and high
moral worth; has always been fore
most in his identity with enterprises
OF pnblic merit, and will not sacri-
fee the dignity nor neglect the
duty Of one position in efforts to
secure another, or in the accom-
plishment Of personal designs.
Possessed OF q good education,
sound Judgment, thorough knowl-
edge ofluen and politics, and en-.
joyigg a personal character and
political record that challenges ac-
cusation, together with experience
as q public officer, hewill enter the
contest with q zeal and energy nm.
trammeled by the fear OF exposure
or the necessity Of explanation.
His residence and service oftwenty
years iD the State has not been
decades Of struggles for the office
or fayors at the public hand, but
it has eoabled him to acquire a
thorough iKnOWledge OF the real
wants Of our State. No man in
Southern Oregon conld have been
nominated for Governor who wonld
have met with more favor than
Judge James &. Tolman, and
should he be elected. the people of
Oregon can be assured that personal
Jobs and swindlipg cnactments will

their character and the nerve to at
tack and destroy them. We have
known him personally for thirty
years, and have yet TO hear the

The following is taken from a
Berlin letter 10 the New York
Herald. The sentiments expressed
are said to have been those uttered
by an old and tavorite General in
the Prussian army.
We wish for peace and it is very
far from us. France is again arm
ing. She is seeking tor allies.
France has allies in all the Catholic
States Of Europe. Austria, too, is
bidding high tor the support Of
Russia, We ars surrounded oil all
sides by doubtful friends or open
enemies. Our army is one which
fights we'll, but which, from the
nature of its organization, cannot
fight often without putting q com.
plete stop to our social machine,
leaving our fields untitled end our
workshops untenanted. We are
determined TO put an end to this.
We viii not be kept in a state Of
perpetual alarm. France must
either conquer US or we will have
her friendship, or we will erase her
name from the worldly map.
What we are determined to have is
peace, permanent peace. Our people
do not want military government,
but they will submit to il till
France and Austria are reasonable
and quiet or dead. All sensible
and honest persons are dissatisfied
with the terms Of peace granted to
France. They say we should have
taken no money. We did not want
1t, 1t has all gone and aust 60 to
the army, and now we are still SO
frightened of the French that we
are obliged to keep up military
establishment altogether beyond our
resources. The expenditure neces-
sary to- maintain it leaves US moth
ing for our schools, nothing for SCI
ence, nothing for art, and the stand
ard Of our education is materially
lowered. We cannot, we will not,
keep up SO large an army. We
will make friends with France or
we will destroy her; and Austria,
too, if she interieres on religious
grounds. What we should have
done at the close of the last war
with France, and what we will do
the next time she troubles us, is to
take away from the country and
export to oup own every sheep,
every OK, every fowl, every horse
she possesses. We will blow up
every French bridge, we will tear
up every French railway, and then
France must spend fifty or q hun
dcd years in repairing the damage
we have done.

cure such a law as we desire.
