DISHONEST DlsrArCuEs.


Here is specimen of the far dis
patches that the 0regoaian receives
daily;
SAY FRANclsco, July S.-Fhe execu-
tive committee of the Democratic State
Central Committee met this evening,
The proceedings were kept secret, but
it is understood they referred to weed
ing ont Of candidates on the State tick
ct By piling assessments on them, with
q view to filling their places with H.
BIS.
The Republican committee this even
ing discussed the possibility of holding
an honest primary. and appointed a
committee to devise ways and means to
that end
Any one can see at a glance the cleo
tioneering scheme contained in the fore
going dispatch. The telegraph operator
states that the session of the Demo
cratic committee was secret, and then
he pretends to know all about it. This
wise operator goes on to state that the
Democrats are going to weed out can.
didatss on their State ticket by piling
assessments on them; and in the same
breath he states that the Republicans
are providing for holding "a. honest pre-
mary And yet he doesn't so into de
tails on the Republican scheme, but
proceeds Immediately to infer that
everything was to be done honestly il
that political body, while the Demo
Gratis were engaged in the freezin:
out business. We venture the pre-
dictiOn-despite the Oregoniaa's ''smar
Aleck" of telegraph reporter-tha
when the proceedings come to hand tht
Democratic State Central Committe,

at all, and that they will all stay on tn,

HAYES AND Hls aAEsnAIs LEFT

The adjournment of Congress has
lett the Democratic party of the nation
in better shape than they have been
since the War. That body, after hay-
ing provided for the expenses of the
Executive, Legislative and Judiciary
departments of the Government, passed
a bill for paying the United States
Marsbals 100000 in their capacity of
sherifs or active executive officers, but
made no provision for their use at cleo
tions. And of course, as there is
where Hayes and his crowd want them,
he promptly vetoed the bill. The ma
jority in Congress, true to their pledges
to the people and true to their honor as
patriots, refused to have anything fur
ther to do with Hayes election BULL
dozers, and adjourned. The conse-
quence is that the Marshals will have
to be provided for at elections by the
Radicals themselves, or the people will
have a free and fair vote at the polls.

EnioHLife.

What truly beautiful world We live inl
Nature gives us grandeur OF mountains,
glens and oceans, and thousands of means
for enjoyment. We can desire no better
when in perfect health; but how often do
the majority of people feel like giving it
up disheartened, discouraged and worried
out with disease, when there Is no occasion
for this feeling, as every sufferer can easily
obtain satisfactory proof that Green's Au-
gust Flower will make them as free from
disease as when born. Dyspepsia and
Liver Complaint Is the direct cause of sew
enty-five per cent. of such maladies as
Biliousness, Indigestion. Sick Headache,
Costiveness, Nervous Prostitution, Dizzi-
ness of the Head, Palpitation of the Heart,
and other distressing symptoms. Three
doses of August Flower will prove its won-
derful effect. Sample bottles, 10 cents.

Almost every daily paper is now
filed with a chapter of horrors, mainly
in the way of murders and suicides.
And every page of our papers are full
of cries of distress, business failures
and hard times. In this matter of
murders, hanging, etc, tits difficult to
Judge what should be the remedy. An
Eastern journal commenting recently
on capital punishment observes that
some five years ago the general govern
ment of Switzerland decided to abolish
capital punishment. 4 law was passed
to this effect and put in operation.
Murders, however, increased so rapidly
that petition was started asking the
government to re-enaet the death pen
atty. The grave fathers of the Cantens
were not, however, to be entrapped
into precipitate action, They appointed
q committee to investigate the statistics
of other countries, in order to see
whether Switzerland was alone in the
increase in the murder line. They dis
covered to their surprise that the same
phenomena had taken place in every
civilized country under the sun. In
England the number had increased
seven to one. In Russia, ten to one
France not SO many, but still the figures
showed an increase. Investigating the
matter still further it was found that
the death rate increased in extent in
proportion to the business depression,
It was greatest in those countries that
had suffered most from the financial re-
vulsion, and it was least in those that
were the most prosperous. The sever
ity of the laws had slight influence
compared to the operation of this re
sistless and tremendous factor. The
operation of hanging was but feather
weight when put in the balance against
! the brooding woes of commercial de
) preston, failure, loss, bankruptcy, and
} their coneomitants, despair, want, idle
ness, and suffering. This result is sur
prising, and yet there is no escape from
: the terrible tabulation of these figures
} 1t shows in striking manner how veal
the feeble operations of men are il

THREE To ONE.

An Independent Ohio exchange has
.struck it. This is what it says +:
The Democrats go into the fight in Ohio
this time with three generals General
Ewing, General Rice and General Prin-
cipIes. The Republicans have only one
general on their ticket, and that is Cen
eral Defeat.

WHICH Is THE EcONoallCAL PARRY.

During the last four years the Dem
ocrats in Congress have saved over
$1o0,oo0,0O0 in economy in appropria-
tions. It is unfortunate for the coun.
try that the Democrats were not in
power earlier after the war. If in four
years they could save the country one
hundred millions, with the same judg-
ment and economy, in fourteen years
they could have paid off the national
debt And yet men will talk economy
and continue to vote the Republican
ticket

IN rue RIGHT BOAT AT LAST.

The Ohio Greenbackers are now
marching on to victory, at last. They
have decided to support Gen. Ewing
against Charley Foster, the bankers
candidate, and will have a chance to
crow just little after the election, be-
cause Ewing is sure to be elected.
Sherman and Foster are in the same
boat, and although every effort was
made by them to secure the Greenback
vote, they couldn't be bought, and will
generally support the Democratic tick
ct. If the Greenbackers of other
States will do likewise-that is, stand
by their friends and oppose the gold
sharks and bankers, they will not only
carry out their principles but will af-
ford the country relief from the most
villainous and oppressive corporations
that ever cursed any country.

EWING AND FOsTER.

The Union soldiers of Ohio don't go
much on Charley Foster, the Radical
candidate for Governor. He talks
very Moyar now, but when the war
began and his opponent, Gen. Ewing,
went bravely to the 'front.' Charley
stayed at home and didn't fight worth a
cent. The sequel viii show that the

A CASE OF GRIN. Gov.

It will be remembered that l.. l..
Williams ran for the nomination for
Secretary of State against Hon. r. P.
Earhart in the Republican Convention
last year, and came very near beating
him. Now we have it from the best
authority that the same Williams has
recently eloped with the wife and child
of one of our recent Benton county cit
izens. It seems that the family to
whom we refer about a year ago left
here and went to Waitsburg, W. T.,
and this man Williams high
toned Radical leader-some months ago
left his home at Roseburg aud went to
the "upper country" made his head
quarters at Waitsburg, and, becoming
acquainted with this LADY, won her af-
fections from her husband, and finally
eloped with her and the child, and it is
thought the guilty parties went to Ida
ho. The deserted husband and father
has returned to this city.
Williams was for eight or ten con-
socutive years County Clerk Of Douglas
county, and was one of the most infu-
ential leaders of the Republican party
in Southern Oregon.
We give these facts as we received
them from the wronged and deserted
husband, and have no doubt of their
truth. The abandoned husband and
erring woman were both born and
raised near Albany.
