The Business Outlook.

Since we last spoke of the business out.
look, there has been quite change in the
condition of the commercial! interests in this
country. Though the change has not been
30 decided as to make itself greatly felt in
the smaller business circles, yet it has been
such as to afford much satisfaction to those
whose interests are closely allied with the
commercial prosperity of the nation. OF
course, the results of great panic and its
succeeding years Of depression and want can
not be erased in a week, or a month, or a
year. They can be replaced by prosperity,
only by continued and patient labor and
economy. But, having probably reached
the "hard pan" upon which to build future
success and prosperity, everything that
points to a prospect Of better days is
hailed with delight. Two things have
happened within the past month that has
done much, though through different chan
nels to cause the brighter prospect OF the
present day One is the success OF the Sec
rotary Of the treasury in placing upon tn
market large loan, upon terms very favor
able to the government. This showed that
the confidence Of the world in the good faith
and capabiity Of the United States re-
mains mistaken in spite of the past talk of
reputation and the present talk Of inha.
ton. Whatever affects the general govern.
ment for good or bad is sure to affect the
business as we'll as the political interests Of
the people at large in like manner so that
the success of the government in the matter
of the late loan has had its reviving inAu
ence upon business in general all over tn,
country.
Another great agent has been the break
ing up of the coal monopoly. For severa
years a combination Of four or five railroads
in Pennsylvania had controlled the price o
coal all over the United States. ThOug
this one item may not be very impOrtan
ono in the country, yet it is very esssntiO
one in the cities, where the life Of many poo
persons may depend upon tho price Of coal
Well, our readers know how this combina
ton was broken, and how much lowe
prices we're quoted for coal after the grea
auction sale. All this had the effect G

There has been more or less excitement
throughout the country about the recent at
tempt to rob the NOithfeld, (Minu.) bank.
The most striking circumstances about this
affair was the heroic bravery of the cashier
in refusing to accede to the dema nds of the
robbers and by which refusal he lost his life,
and no property or money was carried
away. A popcr has been circulated among
the banks Of the country adopting resolutions
applauding the bravery of the murdered
cashier and asking a more substantial in-
dorsement of their sentiments. One leading
newspaper says that the late occurrence
was the first in its recollection in which the
officers of county bank resisted to the
point of death. Such bravery cannot but
have its influence upon the marauding COM
munity as well as the knowledge of the
swift justice that overlook a part of the
Mortified bank robbers. Parties of men
followed the latter, day and night, until they
were overtaken, when one of the robbers was
killed and two captured. These last will be
made to feel the severest penalty of the law.
They have confessed to being the notorious
Younger Brothers, part Of a gang of des-
peradoes who overran Missouri in years past.
The remainder will probably be captured
and punished before great length of time
elapses.

FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 80, 1870.

Georgia is being visited by that fearful
scourge of the South, yellow fever. There
are over 1000 cases in Savannah alone,
while in Brunswick, in the same state, out
of population of $500, 600 have been
stricken down by the dread disease. Aid
has been asked for, and sent by many large
cities Of the North and South. There have
been scattering cases in several other cities
in the South, but great precautions have
been observed and it is hoped that the cpl
dcmic will not spread. The afflicted have
the sympathy of the whole country in their
time of trouble.

County Fair-Third Day.

On Thursday the annual horse fair Of the
Caledonia county fair ground company was
held. This day was devoted entirely to
trotting, The number of entries was unusually
large, attracted by the large purses offered
by the society. The day opened bright and
sunshiny, but soon clouded up though with
out many signs of rain Indeed better
day could not have been had. The attend
ance though probably not quite up to tho
average, was larger than on the preceding
day. Before the afternoon races COM
meneed, on the last two days of the fair,
there was an exhibition Of tight rope walk
ing by small boy. The racing was the
best ever seen on the track.
The crowd was very orderly, though quite
an excitement was caused for few minutes
by the struggle of drunken man to escape
arrest. The fair was financial success

A POOR STICK.

Word comes from Sweet Home that
Mr.. J. Sumner, Democratic candidate
for the Legislature. will.be universally
scratched in his own precinct-the
stronghold of Democracy in Linn. This
is rather rough on Sumner, and indi-
Gates that there Is something exceed
ingly ''Totten in Denmark in his case
to induce bedrockers to go back on
him. From all the statements made 10
rs, we are led to believe that he does
not possess single qualification fitting
him for the the pace to which he as
pires. However, as he will be scratch
ed all over the county where he has
ever resided, no danger of his election
need be apprehended. Vale, Sumrer.

over the county by the Democratic ring,
intended to defraud and deceive voters
into casting their votes for J. r. Herren.
There may be, and there doubtless is,
other styles Of bogus tickets than that
referred to by our Brownsville cores
pondent; but as the ssring" is more di-
reetiy Interested in the election of the
Sheriff than any one else on tile ticket
lin fact offer to give all the balance of
the ticket for vote for Mr.. Herren-
we are inclined to side with our inform.
ant in the belief that the ring will de-
pend to a greater extent on this style of
ticket than any other. The ticket spo
ken of is Republican ticket, with the
exception of the name of our candidate
for Sheriff, Mr.. S. A. Dawson. In
place of Mr.. Dawson's name will appear
the name of the Democratic candidate
for Sheriff, Mr.. J. r. Herren. This Is
a high-handed outrage on the voters of
Linn county, and the parties guilty of
snch nnblushipg rascality should be
spurned by an indignant people, and
sent back to obscurity where they prop
erly belong.

SHOW YOUR coLo1ss, GENTLEMEN.

1t is generally understood that the
Linn county Democratic legislative
ticket is pledged to support Governor
Grover for the United States Senate,
yet every time they have been asked
the question as to who they would sup
port if elected to the legislature, they
have refused to answer. They dare
not state their position intelligently on
the Senatorial question. They wear
the Grover collar, yet dare not own it
What brave set of men they are, to
be sure, to ask the Independent voters
of Linn county to vote them seats in
the Oregon Legislature, while wearing
collar they are ashamed to own! All,
what luster they would shed on the
councils of State, ard how highly hon.
ored would Linn county be in securing
such representatives

LET Us HAVE HONEST MEN IN orFrcE.

In another column will be seen the
copy of a contract whereby w. NJ.
Ramsey purchased tie office of County
Judge of Yamhill county for 5000, OF
D. Smith. 1t will be remembered that
there was contest for the office of
County Judge of Yamhill county be-
fore Judge r. P. Boise-D. Smith re-
ceived the certificate of election. Ram
sey contested his election, and the case
was tried before his Honor, Judge
Boise, who was then Judge of the Sd
Judicial District. The case in the Cir
cult Court went in favor of Smith, the
Court deciding that Smith had $eUe,.-
teen majority. Ramsey appealed to
the Supreme Court, after making the
agreement referred to, wherein the par
ties stipulate how the Supreme Court
should decide; and it appears the Su-
preme Court decided the case according
to the stipulation. Does our Supreme
Court uphold and enforce such contracts
for the sale of Office, and lend its sane
ton and approval to such disgracetul
transactions ? It is to be hoped that
there is some explanation of this con-
tract that will free the Supreme Court
of Oregon from being a party to enforce
such disreputable arrangement. Dem
ocrats, look at the record of your Su-
preme Court, and say hereafter if you
can, that politics never enters into judi
cial decisions. Read the record of your
candidate for District Attorney, and
then go to the polls and vote for him if
you think thereby you will be fulfilling
the duties of citizens and voters of Ore
gon. Can it be said that man who
will make such an agreement is q good
citizen. fdigsfiet officer or an honest
man ? Every man who votes for Ram
sey thereby endorses the purchase and
sale of Office. Democrats, investigate
your candidate for District Attorney.
The records of Yamhill county are be-
fore you. Let us have honest men, not
thieves, in Office.

/ am perfectly willing that Judge
Johns may receive the full benefit of all
that is due him, and vastly beyond, as
am no sympathiaer with personal abuse
and maltreatment just for the sake OF
scandal. Mr.. Helm seems to be quick
in asserting that the article headed,
"AIore of Judge Johns Record" is
base falsehood, and for no other reason
than he is dead bent on giving some
one the lie.- despise such nature in
any one, and would scorn to have any
farther debate, wereit not that he has
attempted to make thing look plausi-
BILE, just and proper, where .plausibility
is deception, where justice is fraud, and
where propriety is filth IN the mi nds Of
the sensible. Mr.. Helm admits that
Johns has not paid the $50 charges for
professional services by the Hon. n: H
Cranor, decd, and virtually admits
that the ;.Jttdge has no offsets to the
same. His language is that Jadge
Johns said that he had counter claims
eqnal to the account of the estate
against him (Johns). If Johns has
any such claims it is high time that he
was presenting them, with the proper
vouchers, to the administrator, and
having them placed on file with the
balance of the papers. No such offsets
are in existence, or Judge Johns, with
his contracted ideas of economy, would
have had them vouched for in some
style or other by this time, as it is now
about three years and half since the
death of Mr.. Cranor. 1t is palpable
that Johns has no such offsets, or the
administrator is most terribly delinquent
in his duty in settling said estate. The
truth is Johns never has paid the $50,
and does not intend to pay it.
