Weather-The KaIIoeh.De Young Tragedy
odd Fellows Anniversary sudden
Death.
PORTLAND, April 25th.-The weather is
warm and lovely.
The recent Kalloch-De Young tragedy has
excited much public comment here. From
the general expressions it would seem that
very little public sympathy is felt for
De Young. The general conclusion is that
he met fate which might reasonably
have been expected long ago. While this is
the case, the action of Kalloch is by no
means upheld or justified.

THE RIVAL DEmocaATlc CONVENTIONS

Two Democratic State Conventions met
at Syracuse this year, and Tilden and
Tammany confronted each other fiercely
and stubbornly. The Tilden Convention re-
fused to make any concessions, and John
Kelly's Convention made an equally reso-
Lutte demonstration. The anti-Tammany
Convention did not exactly instruct its
delegates for Tilden, but it amounts to the
same thing. 1t is evident that the war
between the factions will be carried on to
the end of the campaign, and that Tam
many represents a very powerful element
in opposition to Tilden. His ability to
carry his own State is thus made so ex-
ceedingly doubtful that the chances of his
nomination are correspondiugly lessened.
There seems no doubt that he will keep up
the contest to the last but as the case
stands now it is certain that his nomina-
ton will divide the Democratic votes in
New York, and, unless Grant is the Re-
publican candidate, give the State to that
party,

The attempted assassination of Kalloch
by De Young last October, and the actual
assassination of De Young by Kalloch's
son now, are the most pronounced and i'm
portant results of line of journalism
which was said to be in the interests of
the people and of good government. And
it is not difficult to perceive that similar
results must always flow from similar pol
icies. The publisher who sets out to i'm
prove society by unmeasured utilization of
all who are in his way, or whom he thinks
dangerous to the public veal, ought not
only to be above reproach himself, but he
ought to be immortal and invulnerable
If he is neither he will sooner or later
methods upon him, and then the scene
will have been set for tragedy such as
has just taken place. 1t is time the lesson
of this dark and melancholy history was
taken to heart in this State. 1t is not
by bold pretense of public spirit, sup
ported by ferocious detraction and I'M
scrupulous invective, that reforms are
established, or higher condition of poll
tics or morals reached. The agencies nee
essary to the carrying out of such policy
can only produce consequences akin to
themselves No community was ever the
better for being familiarized with cal
umny, for being taught to anticipate
fresh slaughters of character every day,
for being led to believe that no real differ
ence exists between the habitual murder of
mems and. women's regulations, and the
loftiest codes of ethics. Personal journal
ism is debasing and corrupting, because it
deals only in low and malignant impulses.
1t appeals to the basest and most con.
temptible traits in human character, and
to no others. tits, moreover, so dangerous
and fearful method of journalism that in
the hands of weak or bad men it must in
evitably become an intolerable scourge to
the community, and inasmuch as it tends
directly to stimulate all the most
brutal and revengeful feelings in the
breasts of those who are its victims, it
operates to encourage the worst crimes,
and to disseminate cynicism fatal to
moral advancement. In fact it may he
said of it that its results are only and al
ways evil, and that journal so conducted
occupies the position of sort of Devils
Pulpit in community, spreading every
where malign and venomous suggestions
and influences, making bad men worse,
making good men bad, adding desperation
to immortality, and sowing the seeds of a
crop which is certain, sooner or later, to be
harvested in blood and tears Let us hope
that the tragedy just enacted before their
eyes will convince the people of California
that personal journalism is thing to be
Stunned and avoided.
