RAPID TRANSIT.

Rapid transit is declared TO be an accomplished
fact and cause for cOngTatulation. The message
shows how it will raise the value Of property and
make lighter the burden Of taxation By equalizng
values throughout the entire of the city, and
attract within the city great numbers of people who
carry on business here, but reside in neighboring
places which enjoy the benefits of wealth invested
there because those places are more accessible to
the business portion Of NewYork than are the upper

able to Democracy and Democratic adj
ministrations, before which the thieyery
of to-day looks Insignificant. These
are but a small number of the Demo
cratic defaulters and thieves who have
grown fat on public plunder since the
first days of the Republic, not ono OF
whom ever suffered for his crimes, but
on the contrary were shielded and pro-
tected by Democrats. 1t is matter of
record that while the Democratic patty
was in power, all kinds OF thievery and
fraud was practiced, without let or him
drance. Under Republican admlnis-
tration, rascality is punished to the full
extent of the law, whenever and wher-
ever brought to light. These are facts
that cannot be truthfully gainsayed.

MORE SELLING OUT.

n meeting of the stockholders in the
Astoria Farmers Warehouse Company
is called for the 28th inst, at Astoria,
for the purpose Of selling ont the entire
property of said corporation, and divid-
ing the proceeds among said stocIhol-
ders. A large amount of the above
stock, approximating one-half of its
capital, is held in Linn county, and our
people therefore have deep interest in
the matter, and if there is any jobbery
in it, they want to bring it to light. To
this end every dollar of stock represent
ed in this county should be represented
at Astoria on the 28th instant. If par
ties in this county holding stock in said
Company, who cannot attend, will for
ward their proxies to the Albany Far
mers' Company of this city, with the
bearer left blank, the A. f. Co. will see
that all such proxies are filed out with
the name of reliable parties who will
attend the meeting, and SEQ that tlseil
interests do not suffer. In this way a
fair and thorough Investigation of the
matter can be reached, and it job ha'
been put up it win benipped in the bud
Don't fail to attend to the matter.

mated, under protest OF the minority,
who refused to nominate or vote for a
Congressional candidate. The friends
of Hons. Geo. r. Helm, OF Linn, and
Witeaker, of Lane, took no part. SO we
are informed, in the selection of Con-
gressional candidate, and will not lend
a very cheerful support, in consequences,
to Lafe Lane. Indeed, we are led to
believe that many Democrats will re.
fuse to vote for Lane, even if they dc
not vote for the Republican nominee
This kind of trickery will no longer b.
tolerated by honest Democrats, and
Lane will be badly beaten man at tbs
polls this fall. Mark that.

ssDown south Killing De1nocrats.-

Philip Grigsby, Democratic candi-
date tor County Treasurer, as soldier
IN the Union army, only brief period
since, was down South engaged in kill
ing Democrats! Now he is asking Dem
ocrats to vote HIM into the nice, easy,
comfortable office of County Treasurer
AN office with little or nothing to do,
to which a good salary, with fees, is at
.ached. It's rather bitter pill for some
of the old liners to swallow, but then,
you know, party discipline must be
hept up, and a ssgood' Democrat is
supposed to have no opinion or will Of
his own that party leaders are bound to
respect! However, Mr.. Andrews, the
Republican candidate, will be the next
County Treasurer, and large number
of Democrats propose showing their
good will by voting for him.

DONT LIKE OUR TICKET.

The Democrat man don't like the
Republican ticket for Linn county. The
reason is plain enough-that ticket is
comp sed OF tarners-tlere isn't a
single Brigadier General among them.
The leaders of the Democratic party
don't like the Grange element. They
gave evidence of their hatred in refus-
ing to noninate'a single Granger in this
county for Office in which there is any
money, at their last county convention.
Although protesting great love for the
Changers, whenever Granger has the
temerity to offer himself as a candidate,
say for Sheriff or Clerk (oflices in which
there if good payl, they are ruthlessly
slaughtered at once, and given to un.
derstand that they are only required tc
vote, not to hold office. A good many
Democrats fail to see why farmers (whe
compose the great majority of the Dem
ocratic party in Linn county at least,
must do the voting, pay the taxes, ant
be put off with honorary or non paylns
Offices, while the professionals ge

ocrats who begin to see the utter hol
lowness of the professions Of the would

as their insincerity and selfikhuess
made apparent, forced to the surface b
current events.

THE DEMOCRAT ON THE FARMERS.

The Democrat publishes list of ap-
pointments for the Democratic county
ticket, challenging the Republican can
didates to be present and participate,
sneeringly remarking ''In view of the
fact that there isn't one of the Radical
candidates who can make q stump
speech to tree toad, there is very little
prospect of their acceptance of the
challenge" As the Republicah5tick
of Linn county is composed almost en-
tirely of farmers, this is simply sneer
at the entire farming community. Why,
my dear General, there isn't farmer
whose name appears on the Linn county
