average crop for the country, not
wilhstanding the spring has been
backward and cold. The weather is
now quite warm, with occasional
showers. Our peop'e have com

country, and at present prospects
they are very hopeful of a successful
business in that line. Times are ha$d

POLICY vs.. PRINCIPLE


The Portland EreningJouradt takes
us to task for putting in our oar II
the matter Of the city election lasi
week, and suggests that if we knew
more about the politics Of that city
our mind would be changed as to tho
policy to pursue. We don't know
that we spoke of "policy' in the ar
ticle az which our friend growls
We wore talking of principle. We
don't like that word policy" Al
was policy which demanded the nom
nation Of Geo. B. Mcclellan, wal
Democrat, on Peace Platform, and
there being no principle involved in
such q programme, the project igno.
miniously failed. 1t was the policy
of the bondholders and thieying Tam
manyites which secured the nomina-
tions of money-bags Seymour and
Abolition Blair as our candidates IN
1870, and there wasn't principle
enough in the contest to rally the
party to their support, and they were
defeated. And the last and most Ia
mentable stroke of policy was that
which sold our party to the sore-head
Republicans and political dead-beats
of the Cincinnati Convention and
gave us a Presidential candidate,
Horace Greeley, the most malignant,
persistent and bitter opponent OF
every principle which orr party has
held in yeneration since its existence
began.
With these three great policy
failures to warn us of similar expert
ments in the future, our party is. .cul-
pably blind if it takes another step
in The same direction. We must now
see the utter folly and futility Of
these "new departures and fully
determine to adhere to the time hon
cred principles Of our party if we
expect to win in the great contest Of
1876. And this will apply alike to
our coming special election. We
want pure, honest, capable straight'
jacket for Congress, nominated on q
Platform embodying the principles
Of the Democrats party.
With any other programme we vii
Justly merit the contempt of the peo
pie and inevitably meet with defeat
at the polls. With such candidate
and such q platform as principle alone
will dictate, we will bury both thu
Radical and Independent hosts be
meath such triumphant victory AZ
will paralyze them for respectable Of
fort in our next years contest.

Elsewhere will DO found IN author
itative call for q Democratic State
Convention as well, as recommenda-
tions for County Conventions and
primaries. The times named for
each OF them meets our ready appro-
bation, and cannot fail to give gener-
al satisfaction. Being called before
harvest, there is no reasonable ex-
cuse for failure on this part Of the
people to attend the primaries, and
we most earnestly urge every Demo-
crat to come out and assist in select
ing our best, purest and most intelli-
geatinen to represent us in the high
er conventions. Do not say because
This is a special election you care
nothing about it. 1t is just as i'm
portant as general election, because
the Congressman elected must fill a
complete term upon which Mr. La
Dow's untimely death did not allow
him to enter. Besides, M we have
previously remarked, in referring to
this election, il is The forerunner Of
next years great contest and must to
some extent shape the destiny Of
Oregon's vote in the electoral College
Of 1876, These important consider
ations, as well as an earnest devotion
to the grand old principles Of our
party, ought to induce every Demo-
crnt to turn out to the primaries, and
while thus more fully impressing the
common enemy with our earnestness
and determination TO beat them, at
the same time securing delegations
free from the esuspicion Of being pack
cd OF set up in the interest Of any
particular candidate or clique. Don't
neglect the primaries.

ALExroAS RAlDs. --On our southwest
bor Ter exists a nation, which is torn
asunder by domestic broils, and is
powerless to restrain marauders from
leaving and entering its domains.
The Robber Chiefs who plumber from
American citizens on Texan soil and
who find refuge in Mexico should be
punished for their crimes. Our gov
ernment should give serious attention
to this matter Ondii Mexican author
tiles are too weak or indifferent to
semedy the evil, perhaps tho job
could be let out to some Of the ex-
citable fellows who are roaming
around on tho North Fork Of the

that chasing those festive robber
chiefs Of Mexico would cool their ar
dor about as quick as anything.
