Tho NoBrHERNER finds much consolation in
carlcatuung the principal Republicans or this
Congressional District. At the organization
recently effected by the party in Kalamazoo
COuntg they thought best to elect Col. DeLos
Philltps as their President. and that gives him
prominence enough to make him a target for
the political meanness and untruthfulness OF
the NORTHERNER. We would like to ask the
Kalamazoo Gazette il it knows OF any overtures
ever being made to the NoRTHERNER whereby
the latter paper Is to work for the success Of
the Democracy in the coming campaign. The
hus has come when the Republicans OF Van
d. Buren, should know who their friends are among
their local press, and we think il time our Paw

position 10 hold him for this coming campaign.

Democratic DisaffectiOn in East.
ern Washington.

The Democratic disintegrationists Of
Walla Walla county, the county where
heretofore the party has looked for its
largest majority, are alienated from
their brethren of Puget Sound and the
West. Jealous of western supremacy
in the matter of distribution of official
patronage, the selection OF delegates,
and sore over the late ACKNOWLEDGMENT
of their county, they are pouting like
spoiled children and refuse to fraternize
by neglecting to send delegates to the
Territorial Convention, They do not
propose to take any stock in the pres
ent campaign. They say let the peo-
pie of the West fight it out between
themselves. We will 60 over into Or
egon. Our Democratic majority will
be felt and appreciated over there, and
perhaps we shall find what we failed to
secure here, a share in the official plum
der, for which we hunger and thirst.
They propose to carpet bag on large
scale by all going over at once. 1t re-
mains to be seen how Mr.. Judson will
fare without the unanimity that usually
prevails between the eastern and west
ern sections of his party. AT best, he
would have hard job on his hands to
overcome Judge jacobs 200 majority
in the Territory, but with division in
the ranks of the democracy, defeat
surely awaits him in November.
The Republicans of Eastern Wash
ington are satisfied with Judge jacobs
and satisfied also to remain in the Ter
rito,y. They will all work for the sue
cess of their ticket. They sent dele
CATION to the Kalama Convention; a
delegation that unanimously endorsed
the nomination of Judge Jacobs and
submitted to that body resolution adj
verse to annexation to Oregon. Per-
feet uuanimity prevails in the Repub
lican ranks, and victory in November is
the certain reward.

ST. LoulJ, Feb. 10.
Upon the opening of the Babcock trial,
the counsel for the government notified the
court that further testimony would reach
here from Washington tomorrow, respect
ing the dispatch of Joyce to Babcock, De-
cember 3d,and one from Babcock to joyce,
December 5, 1874, which have not yet been
admitted. The court will not pass on adj
INSTABILITY of the Avery kilograms until
the defense has an opportunity to present
evidence that Avery's name was known to
the grand jury, and was not included in
the indictment naming the conspirators--
an objection to the Avery kilograms that it
was shown that Avery was in the conspir-
acy was over-ruled, as the kilograms them
selves tended to show that.
Alfred Bevis, dis.lller, was put on the
stand and testified that Joyce showed him
the Sy lph dispatch from Babcock in De-
cember, 1874, and that his understanding
from it was that the revenue agents were
not coming, and on the strength of the in
formation preparations were made to run
crooked When Joyce showed witness this
dispatch he told him everything was
all right and to go ahead. Witness con-
tinued Joyce showed me letter at his
office about three or four vs. after | saw
the dispatch. | asked him for it, and he
gave it to me. | wanted to satisfy my
partner that 1t was sill right. got it in
money and returned it in the afternoon.
The defense objected to the witness
stating what was in the letter or how it
was addressed or even the postmark. The
court ruled that the letter itself was
primary evidence, and secondary
evidence could not be admitted un-
til it could be proved that letter could
not be pre- duced. Bevls was asked the
effect of the letter 10 him. The defense
objected, but it was Overruled. The
witness said the letter satisfied me that
it was all right and we would not be
disturbed in making Illicit whisky.
f. Is. Frazer, the business partner OF
the previous witness was called and stated
that Bevis show him letter mentioned
in is-Bevis-testmonY in December
1874, and that the fleet Of it was their
house recommended making Illicit whisky.
On cross-examination he id he was pref
ty well acquainted with Hoge the reve-
nue. agent, to whom ring money had
been paid, but could not tell just when he
began to serve the ring nor how he was Sc
duced into Its service. Witness received
various letters and kilograms from Hoge,
some of which were sig aed Bixby.
S. M. Barton, agent or manager of Bing-
ham Bros.'s disiilleiy here, then took The
stand and testified TO having con
tribated in April, 1875, $500 to friend,
