There are two Greenback Clubs in
Halsey Precinct with an aggregate
membership of about so, two thirds Of
whom are Republicans. The santiam
Greenback Club contains Republi-
cans and IA Democrats-two-th the
ether way.
It is stated that "an analysis Of the
vote" for Stanley Matthews silver rese-
luton ''shows that there were for the
resolution % Democrats, 10 RePubli-
cans, and the third party. Senator
Davis. Against it, there were Is Re
publicans and 7 Democrats"
The Harrisburg Gresnbach Club
regulations requires a quorum of 20
members, and as they never can muster
that number together they can't hold a
meeting. This is the first time we ever
knew an organization 50 big that it
couldn't meet We understand they are
going to get cut of the difficulty shortly
BY borrowing enough members of the
Halsey Club to secure meeting and
then reduce their quorum within the
limits of their own number.

One A. c. EdmUnds, the ostensible
editor of the Labor World, devoted a
column and a half of that dslectabls
sheet last week to a short paragraph
that appeared in the Guard the week
before, and VIC presume, from the num-
bsr of extra copies ef his paper dis
tributed in this community last week,
that he thinks he has demolished us.
We have taken some pains to trace the
tortuous wrigglings Of this fraud from
the time of his advent here until be
lit out He made his appearance here
in 1862 or 1868, claiming to be Uni
versalist preacher, and shortly after
wards commenced the publication Of q
paper devoted to the interests of that
society. 1t only took few weeks to
convince his supporters that he was net
worothy of their patronage, and conse-
quently he petered out, clerically and
esitorially, and having holy horror of
honest labor, drew upon his ingenuity
for some other means of snealSiRg
living without work.
Taking advantage of the war excite
ment-that Godsend to bummers and
blatherskites-he commenced the publi-
cation of "The Union Crusader, An
Irrepressible Copper-head Killer" No.
4, dated Dec. 12, 1862, lies before us.
1t is an Sx10 blacksmith's apron, three
to the page, and he has written
himself a demagogue and blackguard in
every editorial sentence in the shabby
thing. During the brief existence of
this bantling, his time was principally
in loafng, while his wife and
1 small boy did the work. As to his
having been an infdel lecturer, tho citi-
lens of Eugene and other towns in this
valley are fully competent to decide the
question of veracity between US, and
We are willing to accept their verdict. !

Our nonresident woman suffrage

tioa upon their arrival here the other

to either meet them at the depot

A Salem correspondent Of the Eaora-
mento Uaton, in discussing the political
situation in Oregon, slashes around
miscellaneously among the parties and
politicians Of our State, In speaking
of the Greenback movement he alludes
to Edmunds as 'an inspired idiet whese
very countenance is suggestive of stu
pidity and dog-on-edness, and who goes
about delivering long-winded speeches,
in which riehes are denounced and

ready Joined, and the issue decides the
fate of the Republican party in Oregon,
for if there is a Mitchell and anti
Mitchell war within the Republican
ranks, it is more than probable that the
Democrats will carry the Legislature by
default, and then we shall have the sec
end instance where the introduction of
Mr. Mitchell's name into the canvass
has wrought ruin to the party. It is
freely charged that Mitchell is in the
interest of the great railroad kings,
and that his heart is not much inter
ested in the success of the Northern
Pacific road. With this state of things
existing the election of Senator Mitchell
will be difficult to accomplish, but, then,
he has wonderful perseverance and or
ganizing powers"

A DEMoCRATIC MEAsURE.

The following is the full text of the
Matthews jSint resolution which was
passed in the Senate, january go, by
a vete of 42 yeas against 20 nays, and
in the House on the 9sth by vote Of
1ss to 10:
Whereas BY the ac. entitled San act 10 strengthen

provided and declared that the faith Of the United

obligations Of the United States except in cases where
the law authorizing the Issue Of such obligations had
lawful money or ether currency than gold and silver

Whereas all the bonds Of the United States author

Of bonds Of the United States described in the said
act Of Congress approved July Il 1870 entitled IAN

Resolred By the Senate (lhe House Of Representa-.

United States issued authorized to be issued under
the said scs Of Congress hereinbefore reeited pay
able, principal and interest At the option Of the Gov
eminent Of the United States, In silver dollars, Of

grains each Of standard silver and that to restore TO
its coinage such silver coins legal tender IN pay
ment OF said bonds principal and interest," Il not IN
Violation Of the public faith, nor In derogaton of the
rights Of the public creditor.
Now that this resolution has passed
both houses of Congress, it stands on
record that Congress has declared United
States bonds payable in silver. As this
was concurrent resolution, it does not
need the Presidents signature to stand
as the expressed opinion of both houses.
As this resolution was supported
mainly by Democrats and opposed by
Republicans, it stands as Democratic
measure, and therefore shows the sense
Of that party on this most important
question.

LEGISLATIVE CANDIDATES,

We have letter elsewhere in to-day's
paper suggesting the name of Hon. Jas.
Blakely, of Brownsville, as suitable
candidate for State Senator. Mr..
Blakely served Linn county very ac-
eePtably in the Lower Heuse one term.
and would make an efficient Senator.
In selecting candidates for the Legis-
lature the argument Of rotation in Of.
ice will scarcely apply. The first
time a man is in the Legislature he will
introduce lots of bills; the second time
he is there he will introduce q few the
third time he will try to prevent legis-
lation of all kinds except that which is
absolutely necessary. If the custom of
re-eiecting members of the Legislature
more largely prevailed it would be much
better for the State. The men whose
views shape legislation, and whose views
are most consulted by their fellow
members are men of long service. who
think great deal and say very little.
'fhe men whose namesoftenest appear
In the proceedings are not necessarily
the men of most influence. Readers of
legislative proceedings who do not see
the name of their member often therein
need not worry-the member is doubt
less doing his duty all the same.

capital punishment for the crimes of
burglary, arson and rape, with a pro-

prisoners to mercy under certain cir
cumstances, in which event the punish

is Noteworthy that this measure passed
