A young woman committed
suicide lately in Boulogne,
France, who two years ago shone
conspicuously in the titledsocie-
ty of Berlin. She was the wife
Of the Russian Secretary of Le-
CATION, to whom she had been
betrothed while in a Paris
convent school. They lived at
great expense, and the woman
rivalled the members Of the
royal family in the costiness OF
her Jewels. AS their resources
diminished the husband plunged
into stock speculations, and
became q bankrupt. The wife,
unwilling to endure poverty,
eloped with princely admirer,
who in short time abandoned
her. Deprived Of resources, she
gave herself up to dissipation in
Paris, and, weary of life, finally
shot herself. Her husband, who
belonged to the society of the
Red Cross, was at Bucharest, in
charge Of a hospital for soldiers.

Howard yesterday afternoon and this

Are We to be Sold Again i?

Are We to be Sold Again =?
AS has heretofore been made
manifest, the Democratic Con-
vention was organized and run
exclusively in the interest and
at the dictation of the N. P. r.
r. Land Ring, and the D. S. N.
Co. 1t is now openly boasted
that the Republican Convention
and the Republican nominee are
to be dominated and dictated
by the same power, and that the
people are only to be tleft the
choice Of overseer for the same
master. We are told that if we
do not accept n. T. Cation. the
Democratic nominee for Dele
gate, we will be forced to accept
Sam Z. Wingard, representing
the same interest; that the dele
gates from Eastern Washington
will come into the Republican
Convention solid for Wingard,
all collared, marked and ticketed
for Wlngard, as the Democratic
delegates were for Cation, and
will demand his nomination on
local grounds exclusively, and
en- that ground alone his hackers
hope TO secure the control Of
both political party organiza-
tions, and use the people to be-
tray themselves through their
party associations. Are the vo-
ters of Washington Territory SO
obtuse, or so lost to all sense of
manhood, that they are prepared
to surrender their dearest inter-
ests to a cabal Of mercenary pol
iticians, who traffic upon their
rights in the name Of party? Is
it not time for the people to de-
mand an accounting from their
servants? In the Democratic
Convention a very large prepon-
derance Of the popular sentiment
of the Territory was shameless
ly betrayed in the interest of our
common enemy; let us see to it
that the treachery is not repeat
cd in the Republican Conven-
ton with impunity. Of the del
egates to that Convention from
this county, Capt. Hill, L. B.
Andrews and Irving Ballard are
candidates for Office. If they
return from that Convention as
the Democratic delegates did, as
the bound thralls Of an odious
combination against the people,
let them look to their masters,
not to the people, for their pay.
Ii the rights of the people are
betrayed in the Republican as
they were in the Democratic
Convention, the remedy still lies
with the people, to cast off the
tramels Of party and vindicate
their own rights through their
own chosen representative, inde-
pendent Of party. Do not be
deluded with the idea that there
is dishonor or shame in repudi-
ating party by which you have
been betrayed. That is but a
device of demagogues to use the
people through their prejudices
for disreputable purposes.

disturbs our neighbor. The ed
itor has a candidate and q plat
form Of his own choosing from
the so-called Democratic Con-
vcntion; then why should he
deprecate a Republican nomina
ton over whom his triumph ap-
pears to him so well assured!
We have the information upon
which we can assure our neigh
Dor that Judge Jacobs neither
seeks nor desires nomination,
and if he consents to become a
candidate, it will be upon such a
popular demand as he cannot
misunderstood and would have
no right to disregard, and such
a contest would determine the
question whether the voters of
Washington Territory are free
men or the bonded serfs of the
combination of monopolists of
which the Oregonian is the faith.
full organ. If the question was
put to the voters upon its naked
merits, free from party bias, as
to approving or disapprovlng the
action of Judge Jacobs in rela-
tion to the railroad land grant,
upon which the assumption Of
his unpopularity is predlcated,
there is no reasonable doubt that
nine-tenths Of the popular vote
of the Territory would be given
in approval, the opposition being
confined almost exclusively to
those personally interested in
maintaining monopoly and spe-
cial privlles.
The Oregonian is very much
in the practice of drawing its
conclusions from imaginary pre-
misses of it's own invention; as in
constituting the defeat Of Mitchell
as an expression Of popular dis
satisfaction with his railroad pol
icy; and predicating popular
disagreement with Jaeobs upon
the same premises. The truth is,
that in Oregon as in California
and every where else, the mo-
nopolists and seekers for special
privileges use political parties
for no other purpose than to
promote their own selfish pur-
poses; their success mainly de-
pending, not upon popular en-
dorsement, but upon holding the
balance of power between the
two parties, and no one better
understands the advantages OF
this position than does the edit
or Of the Oregonian. With the
party strength of the State very
equally divided and the Demo
Gratis a unit against Mitchell,
such a combination of all the
wealth and corporate power of
the State, with hosts of retainers
and dependents, gave over
whelming odds to his opponents
which no amount of personal
popularity was sufficient to over
come. In every instance where
this issue was presented in the
primaries of his own party, Mr..
Mitchell was overwhelmingly
sustained by popular vote; the
Democrats did not raise this is
sue anywhere in the canvass but
in Multnoman county, where
an open coalition was formed to
defeat him, composed of the en-
tire Democratic party, dlssatis-
fed Republicans, National Bank,
Chamber of Commerce, 0. S. n.
Co., N. P. r. r. Co., and every
form of monopoly, led by the
leading Journal" Mr.. Mitchell
carried off the popular vote by
a handsome majority over all,
a triumph with very few paral-
lels in the history of party pol
itics in this country. In view
Of these facts it is sheer effront-
cry claim that the course OF
Mitchell and Jacobs upon the
land grant is condemned by pops
ular sentiment.

WOODSTOCK, VIRGINIA.
wednesday, April "a. 1878.

We publish in this issue a singular
note, written by Hon. II, NJ. 7. Hun
ter, Treasurer of the State Of Virginia,
and published in the Richmond Whi9.He
expresses surprise and concern that a
letter giving a true account Of the pro-
ceedings in the treasury department OF
Virginia should heve been published and
promises that he VII take etlectual
measures to protect himself and the Of
flee from such revelation Of official pro-
cedngs. 1t may be unpleasant for some
Of the officers Of the State government
to have all the official proceedings ex-
posed to the scrutiny Of the people OF
the State, but it would appear to us as
eminently proper that the people should
be fully acquainted with these proceed
ings. They should understand, at all
times, the exact financial standing OF
the government. they should know the
difficulties with which the officials are
compelled to contend, they should know
whether the income is sufficient TO meet
the necessary expenditure, they should
know the exact amount they pay and
what is done with the money. In the
Treasury department OF Virginia, there
should be no transactions which cannot
be exposed to the full view Of all the
people who pay the money which is
handled in that department.. If the
partv,who wrote the letter, not intended
Tor publication, made statements con-
corning the condition Of the treasury
that were not correct. he should be held
accountable for his misconduct, but, if
on the other hand. he wrote to a roper
sentative OF the people. CT even to a
private citizen. and gave correct ac-
count ofthe financial condition Of the
Treasury, his conduct, IN our opinion,
d serves no rcproach. as he has only oX-
hibitcd, TO those who have right to
see. The condition OF a department in
the management OF which they arc as
much interested rs the treasurer him.
