WHo nAs Done rms.

We see that somebody has succeeded
in " horning" McFadden's name off the
Benton County Greenback ticket, fer
County Judge, and substituting that Of
the Radical nominee, Gingles. We
understand, however, that this is not
done by anybody's authority who dare
shoulder the responsibility-henee we
take it for granted that the Greenback-
ers of Benton don't endorse this ticket,
and will rebuke the treachery where
by it was accomplished.
Mr.. McFadden is the regular nominee
of the Greenback Convention, and since
he neither declined or in any manner
refused to run on that ticket, but on
the contrary in open Convention accept
ed the nomination, we cannot under
stand by what authority any one should
presume to substitute the name of another
person for his.
There is most outrageous pre6dy and
double-dealing here somewhere, and the
honest Greenbaekers of Benton county
ought to ferrit it out and bring the
perpetrators to account for it.

slrTcHELI "ARKASsAwED.-

The Portland Telegram, an independ-
ent paper, says Oregon's hope for a
railroad seems to be dead. The direct
ors Of the Northern Pacific are not dis
posed to build under the restrictions as
embodied in the bill which recently
passed the Senate. This is matter of
great disappointment, and will fall with
severe weight upon the people of our
State. We had hoped that the bill as
passed would be acceptable to the COM
pany, and many with us also indulged
in the same hope but on mature con-
sideration the company have found
themselves unable to build under such
restrictions. Notwithstanding the
strenuous efforts of Senator Grover and
Representative Williams to avert it,
Mr.. Mitchell has to all appearances ac-
cOmplished his design of euchreing Ore
gon out of q railroad By his course
he will find himself euchred out Of the
Senatorship at the next Legislature.
The Telegram strikes it. Whenever
an Arkansaw card-player undertakes to
play lone hand in euehre and doesn't
make point they hang him. Mitchell
may count on the same fate for his po-
litical neck in June.

THEY WILL BE vvArcHED.

We understand that many of the
Republican Greenbackers in Linn are
now attempting to slide back to the
Republican ranks, having accomplished
their object in "sniping" Democrats in
to the movement But Democratic
Green5ackers owe it to themselves to
see that this treachery is cheek-mated.
1t would be repetition of the Peter
Cooper farce of 1876, when, although
pledges were made by Republicans in
Linn to vote that ticket, when election
day came around only about 10 out of
the l4l votes in Linn for Cooper were
Republicans. This sort of trick is get
ting somewhat monotonous and we ap-
prehend the Democratic Greenbackers
have "dropped on it " by this time and
will see that it is not repeated.
A prominent Greenbacker informs
us that SO far as he is concerned he
believes in the sincerity of the Republi-
cans in that movemnt, but he will in
sist that they shall "show their faith by
their works" on election day. And
he is man of keen wit enough to see
that in his section there shall be fair
play.

ENC0URAGING.

Gen. Nesnith was in the city yester-
day, returning from trip up the val
ley, where he is supposed to have done
some effective talking and taken close
observations. He is making spesialty
of Brown and Noltner, as leading can
didates on the Democratic ticket, and
reports their chances as most excellent
for being defeated. That is precisely
our estimate, but the balance of the
ticket must keep them cOmpany.-Sa-
lem Statesman.
We think it is safe to say that the
above is untrue. Gen. NesEith, as one
of Oregon's distinguished Democrats,
would not be guilty of this thing, and
the Radical Statesman is doing him an
outrageous injustice in proHulgating
such statement.
Gen. Nesmith viii undoubtedly give
the Statesman q severe rebuke at an
early date for its mendacity.

GIVES IT UP.

Harvey Scott gives it up. He says
there is no use to buck against the Gus
tom House Ring in manipulating pri-
maries. They have nothing else to do
but draw their salaries and menage pol
itics, hence they have the trade to per-
lection, and even majority of those
unfamiliar with the business will be left
out in the cold.
1t seems to us that Bro. Scott ought
o have learned enough, while he trained
With that crowd for SO many years, to
Iead them of on some of their tricks.
But maybe he has grown rusty in the
BUSINESS from having been out of a job
or so long.

Excess of Growers expenditures for current
expenses alone during term of four
,452 50
The truth of the matter is, and the
persons who publish this tabulated lie
know it, that in the column of figures
headed "Grover's administration, is con
tanned payment, made for great part
of the expense of the Woods adminis-
tration. Every intelligent man in the
State who was here at that time, or who
heard the canvass of four years ago,
knows that the Legislature of 1868 ad-
journed without making appropriation
for the expenses Of the State govern
ment, and that the current expenses of
the two years following were paid dur
ing Growers first term, of which the
following is correct statement taken
from the Treasurer's report Of 1872,
pages six and I, and classified under
each fund as
The state rights democrat. [volume] (Albany, Linn County, Oregon) 1865-1900, 1878-05-10


Between 1872 and 1874 there was
an additional sum of sl9,204 50 paid
as interest on Indebtedness incurred by
the Woods administration, which should
justly be deducted from the sum of ex-
penses of Growers administration of
four years, which would place the gross
amount of expenses of Growers admin
istration Sll,67s 03 below the cost of
Woods four years. But when we take
into consideration the fact that during
the Grover administration there were
extraordinary expenses in securing lands
granted to the State, and permanent
improvements made which are too well
known to need mention, and the natu-
rally increased cost of the keeping of
the insane and convicts, and additional
expense in the Legislative department
on account of increased number of men,
beis, we can only wonder that the cost
of running the State government dur
ing Growers term was not greatly in
excess of that of Woods, and it is prima
facie evidence of economy on the part
of Democratic officials that it is not so.

to hear them unanimously express the
opinion that the Democracy would carry
Lane county by handsome majority.
They have remarkably strong county
ticket, which, together with the supe

thoroughly unites the Democracy OF
