The Weston LEADER has two cuts at
the haad OF their editorial (?) column and
calls them Hancock and English. If
they hadn't told their readers who they
were they might have been taken for a
map of the new county.-Tribune.
You are right, boys. it does seem bad
to mar the pictures of our next Presi-
dent and Vice President. But we are
proud in the belief that we can point be-
hind the pictures to their original, and
find men above the taint of suspicion,
above corruption in Office, above charges
of jobbery, above expulsion from office

From the report of the legislative pro-
ceeding we learn that our representative
Hon P. J. Kelley has introduced bill
to divide Umatilla into three counties.
This is as much as could be cleaned from
the meagre report. What boundaries
Mr.. Kelley's bill gives to the proposed
new counties We. can only surmise. Re-
membering his oft-repeated promises dur
ing the campaign of abiding by the ex-
pressed wish of q ma ajority of the voters
by means of petition, We must conclude
that one of the dividing lines is that
laid down by the division Convention
at Pendleton, for it has received the
greatest number of signatures. 1t is bat
fair then to suppose that Mr.. Kelley
will faithfully carry out the desire of
his constituents to the best of his ability,
Mr.. Wilson having made the same
promise to the same effect there ought
to be no difficulty in securing the pas
sage of such bill. We hope to see it
passed.

JOHN SHERMAN's FALLACIES.

FALSE IN ONE, FALSE IN ALL
(From the New York Herald, August 3lst, 1ss0)
There are some fallacies in details of
Mr.. Sherman's argument; for example,
where he declares that the resumption of
specie payments in the United States is
''as complete as i'll any country ia the
world" and where, in speaking of the re-
duction of the cost of collecting the Gus
tons revenue, he boasts that it has fallen
from six per cent under President Buch-
anan to three per cent under President
Hayes In the one case he leaves out
of sight the overhanging danger of a
shrinkage of the standard of our whole
currency to the eighty eight cent silver
dollar in event Of the shifting of the
balance of trade. In the other Gaze he
assumes that the proper cost of collections
is in precise proportion to their amount,
which in President Buchanan's time was
less than a third of what it is at present
whereas, on the contrary, it required but
slight expansion of the machinery
which sufiiced to collect the ole in ordel
to adapt the other. 1t appears to us al
so that Mr.. Sherman is unjust in his de
NAL of economies achieved in the appro
priation bills by Democratic majoritie
in the House of Representatives sine

In the language of Col. White,-"If
Main has not been democratic victory.
it is at least an overwhelming republican
defeat The lowest republican majority
estimated by them plior to the election
day was that by Blaine, who counted sat
least 70O0." 1t will not in anv instance
exceed 1000, aud at present writing, will
probably not. exceed 400. Sc it is really
an encouraging result for the democracy
and may discolscrrt the republicans.
The latter party claim New York, Indi-
ana and New JERSEY as ''doubtful," and
the guess is probably as sanguine and
correct as was that Of Maine. Without
any gush, We believe the prospects for
Hancock and English are most encourage
ing; and as far as possible to predict
in the uncertaint. Of politics, their elec
tion is assured.

The EIePiinn.

Editors UiSpdtch The result of the
presidential election is now known, and
many persons belonging TO the vanquished
party are busy giving reasons for the defeat
Of the Democracy. some say it. was the
tariff; others think the reputation senti-
ment at the South had no little TO do with
it; and Others believe that hatred OF the
South and the fear to trust her by the North
was he dominant cause. | am one OF this
latter number, aud ibis opinion is shared in
by The New York Commercial, leading
Republican paper, and, II / am not mis-
taken, by the Dispatch. Perhaps, though.
the Democracy made great mistake in
nominating Hancock. He was too respect
able, too much of the thorough gentleman,
too free from all political irickery-in a
word, too honest 10 suii even the Democratic
masses OF the North. Four years ago Un-
Gle Sunny Tilden, who was not stogei her
"aboye suspicion" OF completely in "ways
that are dirk and tricks that are vain" car
ried fifty-three northern votes. At this
writing 1t is not known certainly that Han
cock has carried any. Perhaps We would
have done better If We had nominated Ben.
Butler.
Well, let the RAIDS run the "nation -; we
OF the South are practically "Out of The
ring" and the best thing we can do is 10
attend TO our material Interests and let ma
lional politics alone.
And now one word about the State eIec-
ton and l have done. The, result proves
that Boss Malone does not exactly carry
Virginia in his pocket. yet IL does not prOue
that Readjustment is a defeated measure.
Far from il. General Malone merely made
d mistake in supposing that the question OF
ReSdjustment would be regarded by The
people generally OF more importance than
the election OF a Chief Magistrate Of the
country. He lost sight OF the fact that the
white people were Democrats and the
"iailhful siIies" were Republicans before
they were keadjusters. and that the " regu-
lar ticket" was tue one that the RJjority In
both parties would be most apt 10 .npport.
The General, sbrewd Us he unauestion-
ably Is, blundered Ia making his July ticket,
and Suspect he has lost more than h@ has
made by IL. Yet, when be sounds his bugle

John GOOda<

JOHN GooDE is a model citizen and a
model congressman. No man in the national
House OF Representatives stands higher.
He has none OF the bad habits which belong
to too many public men. He was last year
the first OF our Virginia congressman TO
take the stump in behalf OF the MCCULL0CH
bill, without asking whether it was popular
or unpopular. HARRIS is a good repre-
sentative In respect OF his attentiveness
TO the expressed wants Of his constituents,
he is the best Virginia has. TUCKER is an
adler constitutional lawyer than GoODE,
but otherwise not GOODIES equal as repre-
sentative. CABELL is more like GO0DE.
However. we would rather compliment
every man in the delegation than TO say
aught against any one OF them. Virginia
has good reason to be satisfied with her re-
representatives.. Just now, we only wish 10
reproduce a paragraph from the Bedford
Sentinel:
The gallant Jack GoOde has been de-
owing to Malone and his creature Lacy.
IL the Malone leaders had nothing else to
answer for, this defeat OF Jack Goode and
the election of DeZend0lf in his stead
through their agency ought 10 consign them

ton. The Democratic people OF Virginia

The friends Of Attorney-General Deyens
express the opinion that it Is quite probable
he will be nominated 10 a p 'SitiOn on the
bench OF the Supreme Court during the
coming session. There are four prospective
actncies on the Supreme Court bench, and
it is considered very likely that Mr.. Hayes
may have the filing OF one Of them before
his term OF office expires. In such q con-
tingency ii is thought that his choice Will
fall on Mr. Devens.
Among other things which Governor
Williams bids the people Of Indiana 10 be
