The President as a Peace-Maker

While the radicals Of both po-
litical parties are assailing, ridi-
culing and denouncing the Presi-
dent for travelling through the
country with a portion of his
cabinet, meeting and talking to
the people face to face, all con-
servative people recognize in the
manifest results the most effect
i've influence which has ever been
brought to bear in allaying Sec
tional prejudices and restoring
amicable relations between the
North and the South. Through
the personal influence of the
President, Massachusetts and
South Carolina accord in senti-
mcnt for the first time since the
formation of the Union; Cover
nor Rice, Of the former, and Gov
ernor Hampton, of the latter,
vieing with each other in per-
sonally honoring the President
and sustaining the policy Of his
administration.
Hon. w. D. Bickham, editor of
the Dayton Journal, a leading
Republican paper in Ohio, ac-
companied the President on
his recent journey through the
South. In a letter to his paper
he says: L went South on the
recent Presidential tour with
some misgivings as to the man.
ner of his reception, and incred-
ulous about the sincerity of the
invitations extended to him to
accept Southern hospitality. !
was more incredulous because
in addition to the shocking his
tory of some of the Southern
States during a few years past,
1 had witnessed violent scenes
and heard virulent sentiments in
Louisiana, less than four years
ago, that had impressed me that
the Southern people of this gen.
Grafton were incorrigibly hostile
to the nation that had been es-
tablished by arms in 1865. l
had even some prudential per-
sonal doubts about venturing
further South than Nashville, at
least, for in my correspondence
from New Orleans l had been
plain spoken. l had reason to
think that there were CnOSo VINO
read newspapers who would not
take kindly to a correspondent
who had told the truth as he
saw it-and as it at time was
abundantly confirmed. But the
cordial, hearty, and manifestly
sincere greeting Of the President
at Louisville, where Southern
feeling was as intense during the
war, and since, as anywhere else
IN the South, tempted me on to
Nashville, thence TO Chattanoo-
ga, onward to Knoxville, and fl

Public Printing.

Pubic Prlnting.
The Oregonian speaks in high
ly complimentary terms of the
manner in which public printing
is executed for the Washington
Territorial Legislature, COM
mending to the State Printer of
Oregon as an example worthy of
imitation. It says: "The bill
printing at Olympia is good,-
honest, fair work. The object is
to do the printing IN proper
manner, for which fair compen-
sation is awarded" 1t gives us
pleasure to endorse this tribute
to Mr.. G. B. Bagley, our Public
Printer, as just and we'll merlted.
He has uniformly discharged the
duties of that office in a manner
honorable to himself and credit
able to the craft, in striking con
trast with the legislative print
ing of Oregon, every sheet of
which is disgraceful to the art
and an evidence of fraud, with
matter which ought to be print
ed on one page stretched out
over two or three, commencing
near the bottom of the first and
extended perhaps a line or two
upon the last page, the whole
being charged by the page, max
ing two or three prices for com
position, paper and press work.
This fraudulent system origi-
mated from an almost universal
practice of party demagogues in
subordinating the newspaper
press to their own selfish designs,
by attaching conditions to the
public printing such as honora-
BILE members of the craft will not
accept, thus leaving it in the
hands of subservients and time
servers who can be controlled to
do their bidding, and are at
liberty to enhance their profits
by depredations upon the public
treasury. In Oregon, the rights
of printers as a class have never
been considered by politicians in
the selection of candidates for
the office of Public Printer; it
has almost uniformly been bar
gained off in convention for sup
port for other Offices, and fire.
quently fallen to disreputable
politicians who we're not practi-
cal printers, and who farmed it
out to printers who depended
upon the "stcalings" tor their
profits. Under that system the
newspaper press of Oregon OBJ
tanned its unenviable reputation
for q low character Of journalism
which has passed into q proverb
as the Oregon style"
In this Territory Hon. Henry
G. Struve was tho first Secretary
within our recollection to award
the printing to practical print
er without bribery, and to
that fact may be attributed the
present honest discharge of the
trust. During that time the
Territorial Printers have been
George A. Barnes, (banker,) S.
Coulter, (butcher,) Rogers, (ne-
phew and clerk to the Secretary
McElroy, (speeulator, )and Chas.
Prosch, (printer); only one prac-
tical printer and publisher, and
he published the statement in
his paper that he paid Secretary
Smith two thousand dollars for
the appointment.
There is no good reason why
the very responsible office of
Public Printer should not be re-
garded and treated with the same
consideration and subjected to
the same conditions in regard to
remuneration for services as 9th
er offices of like responsibility,
except that printers and publish
ers, in spirit of unmanly rival

through Georgia to Atlanta
The contrast between the Spring
of, 1874 in Mississippi and Louis,
lana, and the Autumn of 1877 in
the great battle-grounds of Ken
tucky, Tennessee, Alabama and
Georgia, was surprising, if not
amazing. l could hardly have
credited the peaceful change
from hearsay evidence. am
free to say that warm as l have
been in my feelings about the
South; incredulous as I lhave
been about their professions; ap-
prehensive as 1 have been about
the Presidents policy; l return
ed from Atlanta assured that l
had seen the beginning of prac-
teal, permanent pacification, sat
isfed that it will be as vain here
after to check it on it's onward
career as it was futile to ATTEMPT
to stop the irrepressible conflict
of 1861 to 1865 with paper pro
tocols. l did not, in the won
derful excitement Of the tour,
forget the humble freedman, the
prominent object of all Republi-
can sympathy in the North. 1
inquired of many about their
condition, and they told substan-
TALLY but one story: 'Since Mas
ter Hayes has been in, we's all
been treated better than afore. "
The writer further says: The
touch of nature, however, which
brought about this great civil
revolution which the President
has inauguratcd, was best ex-
pressed by Southern men
themselves: "Mr. Hayes trusted
us Many Southern men with
whom talked said they felt dis
honored because the professions
they made were not believed in
the North, and it exaspcrated
them. To their astonishment,
President Hayes accepted their
professions. They were put up
on their honor, and they said
that they intended to prove to
the President and the country
that they could be relied on"
In conclusion: ~ repeat that
believe that the Presidents
Southern tour will prove vastly
beneficial to the country. 1t has
already established a better feel
ing, and has opened wide the
gates to permanent prosperity

Of beef and mutton in England, will
