Another swindIer on His Travels.

A man representing himself to be
native Of Poland appeared in our bor-
ough yesterday with lot Of cutlery
1e would take his wares to the resi-
dence of our citizens, call for the lady
of the house, and relate to her pitt
full story about being poor, and that
he had Just received notice of large
fortune having been left him in his ma
tive land. He also represented that he
had been dealer in cutlery of very
fine quality in Philadelphia, but find
ing it impossible to dispose of his stock
to enable him to go to Poland after his
fortune and keep his family during his
absence, he had concluded to sell his
wares in the country. The ladies
would naturally take compassion on
him and buy largely of his cutlery
One lady in particular whom we have
heard of, and who opened both her
heart and her purse strings to assist
the man in his troubles, found out on
the return of her husband that the fine
cutlery she had bought was of the
commonest kind of cast iron, and that
she had been the victim of swindle.

Question OF Importance.
1t is believed that Prof. p. W.
Hochkeppel, of this city, will lecture at
some early date in the Grand Opera
House ON a very important question.
He will show, first The great import
ance of a national or popular educa-
tion. Second Why should the modern
languages English, German and
French) be embraced in our public
schools This second will be illustrated
by some striking examples that educa-
tion is tantamount to strength and
power, and that the Palladium of lib
erty is the common school. Lastly he
win close with some interesting re-
marks about the study of languages in
general. The above subject is very
practical one and has been very much
discussed.

the Upland stage proprietor, and another

FROM I" LITTLE MAC

Gov. Geo. b. Mcclellan addressed a
large Democratic meeting at Trenton,
New Jersey, last Friday evening, and
after an eHlogy on Hancock said:
The Democratic party supported the
South before the war, not because it
liked slavery, but because it respected
the Constitution. When the war came
it opposed the South for similar reasons.
Two things united the South before he,
war-s!avery aud anti-tariti.. The for
mer IS dead, and the South Is fast l.p-
coming a manufacturing country. 80
these elements no longer exist The
Southern man is mortal, continued the
Governor, the same as We are. and all
that makes the South solid is the pres
sure of federal hands and carpet-Lag
government. Remove that pressure
and the solid South will cease to b,.
solid He didn't believe man, North
or South, desired the payment of war
claims. lie had no idea the Democrats
would injure the government by inter
fering with the tariff question. He saw
no cause for discouragement in the re-
cent skirmishes.

H
New YoRK, Oct. 15.-tfhe national
democratic executive committee met
to-day and issued the following
10 democratic and conservative
voters OF the country: The election Of
president is now before you. State
and local dissensions are detracttnS
from the issues Of the day. The mae
nitude of victory or defeat can only
be estimated by the force and means
employed in securing it. BY fraud
and corruption the people Of the conn
try were defeated in their purposes in
'7G, and the rightfully elected presi-
dent was kept from office. With the
combined capital of the republican
party, aided by repeated assessments
upon an army of 0fficeholders; with
the power of the federal government
represented by United States mar
shals at the polls with intimidation,
fraud and resort to every corrupt ap.
piiance known to republican methods
concentrated in two states, our adyer-
saries have succeeded In procuring
the probable return Of their local can
didates. Can IL be possible that I'm
every state throughout this broad land
the same methods can be brought 10
bear that were used by the republican
managers in Indiana and Ohio Can
the great states Of New York, New
Jersey, Connecticut, California, Colo
RADIO, Nevada and New Hampshire be
bought, intimidated and defrauded ,
Even without the vote of Indiana,
which we believe will be redeemed
in November, with Yew York, New
Jersey and states that are already
conceded TO us, including Maine, the
election Of our candidates Is assured.
The republican party have put in
nomination for president and vice
president men who by the admissio
OF their party and press are unworthy
ofyour confidence and your suffrages.
1t Is impossible that fifty million in
telligent and patriotic people viii CON
sent to place themselves upon the hui
inflated level thus prepared for them
by republican managers. Fellow cit
iZens. the first days result at Getty
burg ended on the third with Han.
cock In front in glorious victory, aud
secured us our union. The question.
Is not now the preservation OF the un-
ion but Of constitutional government.
Hancock Is now, as teen, in the front.
Repulse IS now, as then, an omen of
} victory which will secure TO coming
generations the ines:imable blessing
OF civil liberty.
By order national democratic com.

EEPrELICaN HrLLpozIXG:.

A gang of Republican negroes as
saul,ed a Democratic procession at Viii
mington, Delaware, last Saturday, and
created great disturbance. 1t seems
that while a Democratic club was
marching past the ball in which the
eolored people were holding festival,
two bricks were thrown at them from
the sidewalk. The club halted and or
ganized for raid, when two shots
we're fred simultaneously on the clubs
from the colored mems hall, and fierce
volley succeeded this demonstration
from the same quarter, which wounded
slightly several Of the club. Muskcts
loaded with buckshot were used. The
whites at first broke and ran, but soon
rallied, and for two or three minutes
there was bot interchange of shots,
when the negroes were routed and pnr-
sued by the paraders, the air being
filed with bricks and stones. Twelve
whites were wounded, some of them Sc
riously, and two negroes were hurt
slightly. The negroes finally made a
stand, and the whites were only de-
tered from attacking them by the po-
lice. The latter were not allowed to
and the negroes dispersed.
When they saw fit they congregated
again next morning, and when the po-
lice tried to disperse them they resist
ed, causing some injury to the police,
who finally captured one negro, and
prevailed on the rest to go home.

LEmSoS, Oct 18th.
Editor Democrat:
NJ. c. George spoke in our town on
tho 18th inst. When the hour ar
rived for him 10 speak the people be-
gan 10 gather about the City Hall.
They were much surprised TO see
such n small crowd out TO hear the
great am Congressman elect speak.
After the crowd had all assembled
the great NJ. G. g., NJ. G., entered
the Hall, with his head up and hand
in his vest. You ought TO have seen
him; anyone not knowing him would
have thought IL was one of Barnum's
ringnastcrs. After singing "Old
John Brown by the Glee Club he
was introduced TO the crowd by Pres
ident Wassom rs the lion. Mr. NJ. c.
George. lie started in by saying
Whitcakcr was once elected Govern
or, member Of the Legislature, sew
eral times being Speaker Of tho
House two terms, President of the
Senate twice, and two years ago was
elected 70 Congress by 1000 MAORI
ty, and sslast June l beat him over
/ 800" Silence followed. lie then
next apologized for the small crowd
that was out TO hear him and blazed
away, claiming the prosperity Of the
country due 10 the Republican party.
lie SAID that the fact of there being
one million more bushels Of wheat
raised in Linn county than was some
years ago was duo to the Republican
party, etc. Now, Mr.. Editor, | know
of plenty of Democrats that raise
from 1000 to 5000 bushels of wheat
more than they did years ago. Is
that due TO this great Republican
party, or is it due to the labor Of the
Democrat. Then he compared that
peerless hero, Hancock, to Benedict
Arnold. Then you ought TO have
seen the Democrats leave. Never
did l think the great II ann would
stoop so low as to assail tho character
of Gen. Hancock. lie claimed the Re-
publican party collected all debts due
the Government at the Federal offices,
No Democrat ever denied that. It is
true, and you might add that they
also use the most of it in carrying
elections and making themselves
rich.
He spoke some two hours, his
whole speech throughout being COM
posed of abuse and misrepreseata-
tions. lie said the charge against
Garfield Of taking Credit Mobilier
stock was false, but he did not prove
1t so, nor even attempt it, Come
again, Mr.. George, and Lebanon will
roll up hundred majority for Han
cock and English in November.

THEY snow TnE CIoVEx rOor.

The valley press have Il great many
times charged that Portland people
embrace every opportunity TO work
against tine best interests Of the valley,
and the newspapers of that city OF
course rs often deny the charge. But
there is no use in their doing so ev-
cry session OF the Legislature proves
the charges to be correct. During
the present session the people OF the
Willamette valley wanted to assist the
new Oregon Railroad Co. by passing a
bill hich wouldkeepthe other corpo-
rations from discriminating against
them in charges made on freight.
Who opposed it Portland men, and
men controlled by the railroad corpo-
rations Of that city. Through their
influence the bill IN question was re.
ferred to the Committee on Com
merce, a majority OF which commit
tSN - Opl'NH@tl ~ H. AatA ttNtC ~ VIA
probably 'sleep the sleep that l,uows
no waking" This committee IS COM
posed df Walters, of ATullnomah, Full
ton, of the lower Columbia countiesand
Glow, Of Benton and Polk. To his
credit be it said that Robert Glow has
done everything in his power to cause
the committee to report, but he is in
the minority and consequently pow
erless. Not content with letting their
representation in the Legislature Kill
this bill, we notice the press Of Port
land getting III licks against it in 9
roundabout way. Last week the B1el-
letiR contained avery severe article
on the proposed Oregon railroad, but
one which can be answered by any
common farmer in our valley. The
truth of che matter IS that they want
this valley forever 10 pay tribute to
Portland, and have no other outlet
whatever.

COXTISTEs TO BE1YasL.

The OregOaia,s is beIaboring its Re
publican Legislature for not being able
to accomplish anything, and in its des-
peration charges that it permits the
Democratic minority, headed by Sena-
tor Cochran and Representative Law
renee, to get away with them. This Is
a high compliment to these two gentle
mer, and we are sure the Democracy Of
the State fully appreciate it, coming
f:om the source it does. We publish

If any thing wero wanting to con
vincs the people of the Pacific Coast,
aad in fact the laboring people Of every
part of the country, that the Repubh-
can party, if successful, will continue
the ruinous tariff laws Whereby the Ia
boring people are being daily required
to contribute about one-third of their
earnings to support the government,
the statements made 10y the Republican
speakers and journals since the elee-
tions in Ohio and Indiana certainly
supply that want. cob, yes, say they,
''she Democratic policy on the tariff
question will canse the manufacturing
interests of the country to favor the
election of Garfield /" What does this
mean, if it is rot an admission that the
Republican administration Of Garfield,
If elected, viii be with the iron manu-
facturers, and against the people, against
free ships, IN favor Of high freights, and
against the wheat producers of Oregon
and California, and all the Northwest
Coast, and, in fact, the producers IN
every part of the whole country. II
candid and honest Republicans will
consider this matter as reasonable men
should, and before deciding divest them,
selves of all party bias, they viii Ger
tlinly vote for Hancock and English.
Il we could have an honest tariff, which
we viii have if the Democrats are sue
cessful-and they will be-the farmers
of this Coast would now be paid 8 per
bushel for wheat, instead of 20 or IS
cents. The expense of maintaining
their families ought to be, and would
be at least 80 per cent. less than at
present. Our railroads would be bnit
at 80 per cent. less than their present
cost, and hence inland transportation
would be proportionately cheaper. All
these things will surely follow Demo
CRITIC administration, and it behooyts
every sensible man in the country to
consider these matters we'll before cast
ing his ballot. OF course Republicans
who are Incapable of reasoning, who
are governed entirely by partisan pref
udiee and blind hatred of Democrats,
Republicans who think more of the
bloody shirt than of the interests of the
people, and who desire government OF
brute force and of revenge viii con-
time to bawl for and viii vote for Gar
field. But there are many Republicans
who are looking more to the interests
of the country, to its peace, prosperity
and to their own interests, who will
vote for Hancock and English. Let
them come, and give them the hand OF
fellowship.
