Not an organ or an orator OF the
Democracy has dared to deny the
fact that that party holds six Repub-
licans States in the South by fraud
and violence; and that were it not
for the most shameless bulldozing
and ballot-box stuffing in those States
it would have no more prospect OF
electing the next President than it
has of carrying Iowa. And yet,
with these facts undenied, they have
the unblushing efrontry to appeal to
the intelligent North to intrust them
with the complete control of the
Government. For unparalleled audacity
the Democratic party is entitled, not
to single cake, but to whole oven
full Of cakes.

FROM poILcMaTH.


After an almost unlimited amount
of the usual campaign thunder and
bombast, 1. M. Draper, the so-called
+" boy orator" of the Oregon democ
racy, escorted by body gurad of
about 80 stalwarts, with torches, and
whose duty it was to furnish bass
drum chin music" and some Of whom
were partially inflated, delivered one
of his abusive harrangues to pa
tient, but disgusted audience in the
College chapel on Saturday evening
last. The young man must not only
have been an apt pupil, but must
have devoted considerable amount
of time in committing his abusive
lesson to memory, as he reeled it of
quite gliblY. A great many Repub-
licans attended, because it had been
confidently asserted that the "youth
who was to sweep all Oregon for the
Democracy" would present to the
audience an array of facts and docu.
mentary evidence which would prove
conclusively that Hon. ]. IL. Mitchell
bad, on the day previous, misrepre'
the political issues of the day
to our people; but, like all similar
Democratic promises, this cheeky as
sertlon was merely made for the .pur
pose OF securing an audience. He
did not meet single issue of this
campaign; in fact, his whole har
rangue was nothing but contempt
ible TRADE of abuse upon the charac
tiers of our honored statesman Hon
J. III. Mitchell, Hon. Geo. H. VIII
liams and others, who are as far su
perior to him intellectually as mar
is to a poll-parrott.
After the meeting adjourned, the
air was rent with the hideous yells o
the "thused" stalwarts for Hancock
and freely interspersed with vulgar
and profane expressions. The better
portion of the Democrats were dis
gusted. 1t is the judgment of the
intelligent portion of this communi
nifty that the Hancock Guards, witt
the "boY order," merely made on
place visit for the purpose of es
Gaping a joint discussion with ou
talented champion, ex-senator J. Fl
Mitchell. 1t was with feelings o
the greatest relief that our citizen
| witnessed the departure of the Han
cock Guards; and the Hall wher'
they held the meeting-O! in what I

The political knowledge of Han
cock passes all understanding. He
says that the tariff is local question
purely, and that the General Govern.
ment rarely interiors with it. Con
sidering the fact that the Constitu.
tion, with great frmness, insists that
all such matters are subject to the re.
vision and control of Congress, this is
rather queer declaration.

Arnold fought with conspicuous gal
lantry for-the cause of independence,
but he attempted to sell West Point
to the British, and thus dimmed the
lustre of all his earlier glories. Han
cock fought with gallantry during the
war, and then attempted to sell the
nation to those who were just fresh
from rebellion. 1t was ambition that
caused the fall OF both traitors.

There were no war Republicans
while the rebellion was in progress.
Republicans was Synonymous with a
determination to put down rebellion
at any cost. There were "war Dem
ocrats, ''however. The term was used
advisedly, and designated those who
were loyal to the Union, in contra
distinction to the many Democrats
who were traitors at heart.

What does Hancock's election In
volve ? A thousand risks. What
does Garfeld's election mean? Con.

risk. Nobody can deny these state
ments. Why, therefore, does any
man who has penny in the world
think of voting for Hancock? ? Give
it up.

Tia DEMOCRATIC ROUTE.

The elections in Indiana and Ohio
are a knock down blow to the aspira-
tions of General Hancock. Nor
does il ~4,aken the force Of tile blow
that La,..i.rs wasnotthe most popular
man the ii.liana Democrats might
have set ~, for Governor, because En-
glish is less liked personally than
Landers. III State always upon a
full vote SO close as Indiana, the Re
publican n, jority at this election
my be considered as decisive of the
result in November, and it is not at
all risky to predict that Garfield will
beat Hancock by greater majority
than Porter l.. at Landers. 1t is for
the Democracy one of the most dis
appointing defeats it has encountered
for many years. The route in Ohio
and Indiana, like the overthrow OF
Napolean's army at Waterloo, car
ries dismay and ruin in every direc-
tion, insuring Republican majority
in the next House of Representatives
with possible one in the Senate. In
fact since Indiana has made up her
mind TO substitute Republican SEN
ator for Mcdonald on the 4th of next
March it is hardly possible to see
how the Democrats can hold their
majority position in that body, for
Mcdonald was regarded as the sur
est of the seven outgoing Democrats
of reelection. We count it certain
that Wallace will be succeeded by a
Republican in Pennsylvania, Melon
aid in Indiana, Eaton in Connecticut,
Randolph in New Jersy, Herman in
New York, as Thurman has been in
Ohio. Here, then, are six Republican
gains against one loss-Bruce in
Mississippi-or FIVE clear gains. That
will make the Senate stand: Repub-
licans, 3e; Democrats, 81; with Davis
of Illinois astride the fence. And
when he votes with the Democrats
on party issues, the Vice President
will have the casting vote, and his
name will not be English, but Arthur.
The result in the two Western
States may be said to take both New
York and New Jersy out of the list
of doubtful States. There will now
be no fusion between Tammany and
Irving Hall. The Tammany game
IS already foreshadowed. 1t will
compromise nothing, but go for all
the local patronage in sight, and give
the State to Garfield. In California,
if the Democrats ever had chance
to win, it is clean swept away by the
moral forces of these two State elec-
tions. In short, there remains moth
ing visible for Hancock but the 1873
electoral votes of the "Solid South, .
and some of them may be in peril.
Still twill not do for the Republicans
to cease working. They should not
abandon the field in Indiana till sun
set on the I'd of November. They
should open tremendous campaign
in New York at once, extending it to
New Jersy nor should their best eff.
forts be wandering in California and
Oregon. Having carried two of the
doubtful States by decisive majorities
the point next in order is to move all
honorable, moral and physical forces
to carry every Northern State. A
solid North against a solid South
should from this eut.be the Republi.
can slogan, till the South relaxes its
insolence, disbands its semitreasona,
BILE organizations and returns to ODE.

Hair-Breadth ESCAPES.

Sometimes, when / look back
over my life, says Burdette, l am
amazed to see how the pages of its
record are dotted with halr- breadth
escapes. l escaped the dangers
and hardships of the revolutionary
war by waiting until the war had
been over about sixty years before
l got born. When the Brooklyn
theatre got burned l was in Bur
Iington. When the yellow fever
broke out in New Orleans l was IN
Minnesota and immediatel V skipped
out for Canada. When | was boy
at school one day all the boys in
school were fogged all around for
robbing an apple orchard, and the
logging did no good, for every beg
gar of them had the cholera morbus
all that night just the same. And
1? l was attending another school
Just twenty-three miles distant.
When all of my brothers and sisters
were down with the scarlet fever, L
was down south In the army, and
when L read the letters from home,
laughed aloud 10 think of my
good fortune, and that l would only
have to be shot at once or twice a
week, instead of having to take
medicine three times a day. When
man comes to the office with O
little bill, nine times out of ten
am out And if, by some astonish
ing blunder l am in, then, indeed,
am more fortunate, but the man is
in no better luck than before.

The Good Old Winters.

In 4O1 the Black Sea was entirely
frozen over. In 763 not only the
Black Sea, but the Straits of Darda
nelles were entirely frozen over; the
snow in some places rose fifty feet
high. In S22 the great rivers OF
Europe, the Dan ube, the Elbe, etc,
were so hard frozen as TO bear
heavy wagons for "a month. In 500
the Adriatic was fl oxen. In 99l
everything was frozen, the crops To
tally failed, and famine and pesti
lence closed the year. In 1907
most of the travellers in Germany
were frozen to death on the roads.
In 1134 the Pc was frozen from
CFemonia to the sea, the wine casks
were burst, and the trees split by
the action of the frost with i'm
mense noise In 1886 the Danube
was frozen to The bottom, and re
manned long In that state In 1916
the crops wholly failed IN Germaay
wheat which some years before sold
in England at 6s. quarter, rose to
81. In 1908 the crops failed In
Scotland, and such q famine en-
sued the poor were reduced to feed
on grass, and many peiished miser-
ably in the fields. The successive
winters of l432-3-4 were uncom-
monty severe. In 146S the wine
distributed to the soldiers was cut
with hatchets. In 1858 it was eX-
cessively cold. Most of the hollies
were killed. Coaches drove along
the Thames, the ice OF which was
eleven inches thick. In l709 oc-
Cured the cold winter; the frost
penetrated the earth three yards
into the ground. In 1716 booths
were erected on the Thames. In
1744 and 1745 the strongest ale In
England, exposed to the air, was
covered in less than ten minutes
with ice an eighth of an inch thick.
In 1909 and again in 1912 the win
ters were remarkably cold. In
1915 there was fair on the frozen
Thames.

Little by Little.

If you are gaining little by little
every day, be content. Are your
expenses less than your income, so
that though it be little, you are con-
stantly accumulating and growing
richer and richer every day? Be
content; so far as concerns money,
you are doing well.
Are you gaining knowledge every
day? Though it be little By little
the aggregate of the accumulation,
where no day is permitted TO pass
without adding something to the
stock, will be surprising to your
self.
The wisest man that ever lived
did not become so in = minute. Lit
tie by little-never emitting to learn
something, even for single day
always reading, always studying a
little between the time of rising up
in the morning and laying down at
night; this is the way to accumu-
late a full storehouse of knowledge.
Finally, are you daily improving
in character. BE not discouraged
because it is little by little. The
best men fall short Of what they
themselves would wish to be. 1t is
something, it is much, if you keep
good resolutions better to-day than
you did yesterday, better this week
than you dld last year. Strive to
be perfect, but do not become down
hearted so long as you are APP
proaching nearer and nearer to the
high standard at which you aim.
Little by little fortunes are accu-
mulated; little by little knowledge
is gained; little by little character
and reputation are achieved.

What a Bug Did.

San Francisco Post: 1t is sad
to think in how few breasts is i'm
planted a love of nature and its
most remarkable works. Little
Johnny Cublip caught a large aud
singularly beautiful specimen OF
the beetle tribe the other day, and
being unwilling to part from his
captive for a single moment SNUG
gled it along to church in the pOck
ct of his roundabout. As there
was no one in the pew Immediately
in front when the service began,
johnny leaned over and deposited
the bug on its cushion as favOra-
BILE for air and exercise. Johnny
was one of those pious boys who
can always be trusted not to fidget
and make a noise In church from
the reason that they sleep peaceful
ly during the entire service. just
after Johnny had been dreaming
of red and green beetles six feet
long, young man and his steady
company were shown to the pew
in front, and the young lady sat
right down on the insect afore-
said.
The minister had hardly gotten
to thirdly before the young lady,
who was very thinly attired, it be-
ing terribly hot weather, began to
blush and glance nervously at her
escort. Then she whispered:
"Don't, Bartholomew"
The young man thought she
meant to stop tanning, so he did so,
and laid the fan on the seat.
The young lady suddenly began
to blush redder than ever, and to
wriggle around little.
Somebody Will see you, Bar
tholomew.
"Well, wot of it?" murmured the
young man in a surprised tone
That's what I'm here for"
"But it won't do" she whispered
tenderly behind her hymn book
"this amt picnic ground"

Ouch! Oh! jimminyp' and th'
exasperated young female created |
sensation by making a break 70
the door, Bartholomew being imme
diately thereafter fired out by thu

And meanwhile Johnny, who haC
been awakened by the occurrence
concluded, after mature considera
ton, to chain up his beetle, keep
discreet silence, and sleep it ou
then and there. He was a far
seeing boy.

Dom Piatt says, speaking of
over feeding THE mother Is the
enemy of humanity, and the more
affectionate she is the more devil
she becomes. Herod was a Chris
tian gentleman by the side of the
mother. He slaughtered the first
born, she kills of all alike; and sta
tistics prove that she is fatal to one
half the children between the birth
and three years. After all, who
escape are invalids for life An
eminent physician first called our
attention to this deadly disease

five children.
