UNGRATEFUL POLITICIANS.


Some Republicans may censure the
Register for not running up the State
Republican ticket, but we can't see
how they should do it. The proprietor
of that journal has regularly Hissued
paper in the interest of that party
for eleven years past in Linn county,
against great odds and with little en-
couragement and less support, and it
does seem to .us that if there is any
balance in the way of obligations the
weight is against the Radical party
and in Vans favor. There is no Re
Publican paper in the State that has
struggled along and existed under such
adverse circumstances as Vans, and we
don't blame him if he now asks for
some substantial aid from those who
may hope to be benefited by his sup
port And we suppose they would
give it if they had any hope of success
in the election, but being utterly hope
less of victory they can't afford even to
help their most earnest and gallant sol
diers in the unequal combat.

HELP FOR MITCHELL.

Our fellow townsman, David Fro-
man, who was elected Chairman Of the
Republican State Central Committee,
evidently doesn't feel very enthusiastic,
and has consequently delegated one 81
mon, of Portland, to do the Aeavy work
of the campaign. As Simon is of the
firm of Dolph, Simon Il Co, the Mitch
ell headquarters. it is presumed that
the work viii be well and faithfully
perf3rmed in the interest of Senator
Mitchell.
Bro. Froman did well in shirk ing
this responsibility just now-but per-
hafs the Radicals of Linn didn't ex-
pect him to put it where it would DO
Mitchell the most good.

Mondays Orsyoaian contains letter
signed by twenty-eight prominent Re
publieans Of Marion county, addressed
to "Repa.blican candidates for TIC Lcgis-
loture Of Mario,. county" asking said
candidates to declare themselves openly
whether or not, if elected to the Legis-
lature, they will favor Mr. NIitchell's
reelection to the United States Senate
We admire the courage, and believe
in the sincerity of these men. They
are gentlemen whose Republicanism
cannot be brought into question; but
who feel compelled by their own self
respect, and their desire to witness the
prosperity of their State, to oppose the
reelection cf bad and dishonest man
who has determined to increase his own
wealth and power at the expense of the
people and without regard to either his
own personal honor and integrity, or the
welfare and prosperity of his constitu-
ents.
We are always glad to believe in the
honesty of purpose of our political oppo-
nents; and are moro than willing to
admit the consistency of the action of
those twenty-eight gentlemen.
There are, we know. many other Re
publicans in this and other counties, as
well as in Marion, who can see through
the corruption and bad faith Of this
man Mitchell. To all of these we
would hold up the example of these
twenty-eight of Marion.
The only way to secure the defeat of
Mitchell is to insist upon the candidates
for the Legislature declaring whether
or not they viii, if elected, vote to send
him again to the United States Senate;
and then refuse to vote for any man to
the Legislature who may decline une-
quivocally to answer the question.
If those Republicans, who declare
themselves opposed to Mr.. Mitchell are
sincere, it is in their power TO prevent
his going again to Washington, there to
sell ont and disgrace the people of Ore
gon.
We commend to our Linn county
Republican readers the closing para
graph of this letter for their per,isal
and consideration. It reads as follows:
Tbs reoen: course Of senator Mitchell in opposing
measures We deem Of vital Importance 10 Oregon, and
his subsersiency 70 the great railroad nonoposts who
are trying 70 defeat the Northern Pacific Railroad
make il imperatively Necessary that YOUR position
should BE- plainly and anznistakshly understood.
And now let us see if the Republi-
cans of Linn have the courage and hon
esty to PROFOUND similar questions to
their Legislative candidates. If they
should do so we predict that at least
four of those candidates viii not and
dare not give an unequival answer to
this question, as they are unquestiona-
bly, pledged to MitchelIs interest.
Let the test be made, and if we have
done those men a wrong we viii Gladly
make the anae,,as honorable.

HEAVENLY x. HINES.

In consideration of the unworldliness
of the Reverend H. X. Hines, who was
so certain that he had not sought the
nomination, and could only be induced
to run because hesheard the voice of
God calling him to Congress-as he
had doubtless heard the same voice call
him to preach the gospel-we think it
would be very appropriate to make the
H. K. stand for Heavenly Kingdom.
Rev. Heavenly Kingdom Hines is Ger
tainly euphonious, and is indicative of
the time and place where he viii receive
his reward for carrying the Republican
banner during the present campaign.

That lively, newsey, snappish little
Democratic paper, the Rossburg Star i
on its ear because Republican exchanges
are trying to tell it who Beekman is.
It says:
tits useless for any Republican te
attempt to tell us who G. G. Beekman
is we have known him ever since he
came to this State. 'sBeek," as he is
familiarly known, has made a fortune
in this State, and at present is bank
er Of Jacksonville. Although he got
all his money in Oregon, he has seldom
made legitimate investment within the
State but confines himself to the bust
ness of buying gold-dust, discounting
notes, and participating in jobs, no
matter how disreputable, where he can
make dollar. He is known here
not very favorably, we are constrained
to admit-as the person who purchased
the $4,000 Road Warrants from
Douglas county. He has neither relig-
ious nor politial principles, but has
been Republican just so far as it di.
rectiy interested "Beek," and as to his
peculiar fitness for the office for which
he was nominated" we have been un-
able to discover. 1t is true he has had
some experience,-having at one time
been President of the Board Of Trustees
of the town of Jacksonville, but even
in that capacity he failed to impress
any one with his Executive ability. -
The only claim he had on the Repub-
lican party was his connection with
several powerful rings, which alone Sc
cured him the nomination for Governor,
and in the event of his election these
rings will have to be sustained at the
expense of the people of Oregon. In
deed, it locks too much like a repetition
of the Woods administration to meet
with success at the hands of the vo-
tiers Of this State.

One Of the resolutions Of the Radi.
cal State Platform denounces "ths ac.
ton Of Gov. Grover whereby he at
tempted to give one Of the electoral
votes Of Oregon to Tilaen =
And this BY crew who connived at
and endorsed the electoral steal of II
votes from the Southern States for
Hayes when they rightfully belonged
to Tilden
Ye gods can such cheek as this ex-
ist but in Radical convention This
is the class of people who have trailed
the slow poison of corruption through
all of our public institutions, and who
have for years past been clogging the
life-blood Of the nation with the cor
roding rust of cheat, swinale and crime.
They have accumulated filth every
where, have allowed monopolists and
money-grabbers to throw dust in the
eyes of the people while they were rob
bing their pockets and tracking dirt
with their filthy boots over the most
sacred pages of the Constitution. They
have winked at and boldly encouraged
carpet-hag sneak thieves to carry off
ballot-boxes and count in and count out
whomsoever would pay the highest re
ward They have no word to say in
condemnation of the greatest crime of
the age, beside which all other political
ofaenses sink into insignifcanee, but
swear at and abuse those who tried to
eheekmate their villainous Presidential
steal
Those Radical solons of Oregon well
knew when they passed that Grover
condenaning resolution that they were
doing mean, contemplate thing, and
one of them told Democratic bystand-
er that it would come back on them in
the campaign; and we propose it shall
That Presidential steal shall burn in
their ears all over the canvass, and
shall reach as far as Democratic jour
nails and speakers shall travel for when
the claim was broadly asserted under
the Constitution by Republican leaders
that the acts of those who counted
electoral votes are not proper subjects
of review by Congress. no matter how
gross the fraud, blow was struck at
the very life-prineiples Of the nation,
from which it is suffering to-day. The
men who struck that blow must be
struck down by the people and forever
disgraced, and the people of Oregon
will get in their lick on those rascals on
the 3rd of june next.

GUEss NOT.

The Register of yesterday morning,
in its obituary notices of the persons
comprising its county ticket, says each
and every man ''shall and will be elect
in June" How can the public place

paper hereafter during the campaign,

knows that the writer of that sentence

not resorted to we will elect the entire

RAILROAD Talk.

A meeting of the Incorporators oi
the Albany, Lebanon aud Brownsville
R. r. CO. was held in this city last
Monday, at which Hon. D. P. Thomp
son, of Portland. was present. The
question of grading and tieing the road
and turning it over to Mr.. Thompson
or some other capitalist who would stock
the read and run It was discussed, but
as there was no definite proposition
made to the Incorporators from these
parties it was agreed that the matter Of
soliciting stock under the original plan
should proceed, and that the people of
our own county would build and own
the road. This plan seems to meet
with more general favor than any other
yet advanced, and will most probably
be the one carried ouE.
We now earnestly ask our Linn coun-
ty citizens 10 take hold of the matter
and push it through. This is one of
the most important local enterprises
ever started on the Pacific coast, and
will be the best paving investment ever
made; and we urge upon our people
the necessity of pushing it to an early
consummation.
