WHATEVER the Republicans Of this
coast may say on the Chinese question,
vote for the Republicans will be an
enforcement of the idea of the Eastern
Republicans who are thoroughly com
mitted to the doctrine of the 'father-
hood of Ged and brotherhood of man" !"
This is tie platform of the Republican
party, and vote at this time on this
coast for Republican candidates, is
simply an endorsement of this idea and
gives the falsehood to the professions O.

further Chinese immigration. Stan

Charlton, Davis and Bruce know

We wish to announce right here to tte
Democracy of this comfy that there IL no
in such reports. re there wac, we
would say so, and spread it Car and
wide, for wa are just little bit inter

the above named Republican candi-
dates are guilty Of telling this tale, and
il we should hear it again We shall give
them public lecture. Democrats, to
be successful at this election, must not
swap. The Republicans are correct in
their reasoning-if swapping begins in

AND now at this day comes Port
land correspondent of the Bedrock Dem
ocrat and makes the allegation that Ei I
hart and Hirsch as members of tbs
B ,ard to sell State lands have sold one
hundred and twenty two thousand acre,
OF swamp lands to Hon. Owens tbs
great swamp land sratber. These lands
are situated in Lake aad Grant .coun-
t es and they have nsytr yst been ap-
peeyed to the State, although under
the law they are rot authorised to sell
these lands until they arc approved to
the State. Talk about rings. What
ring equals in audaeity this one ? The
correspondent Of the Bedrock Democrat
challenges denial by Earhart and
Hirseh or their friends, and calls upon
disbelievers to search the records of the
laad DEPARTMENT at Salem. The same
charge we observe has been made
in the public press Of Southern Oregon
where il has aroused much public indig
nation. The people of the State owe
it to themselves to utterly squelch out
such swamp land ring BY defeating
Earhart and Hirsch at the polls next
month. IF they do not do so then we
miss our guess.

Are you sincere 2 Do you mean to
oppose Chinese immigration 2 If 30, can
you vote the Republican ticket It is
only in the name of Democracy that you
can oppose this Chinese fraud. Dses
not Pixley, the vote in Congress on the
Chinese bill, and the Connecticut legis-
lature tell you SO ? Wherever the Re-
publican party has spoken, it has sus-
tanned the Chinese against our people
We ask honest Republicans if tits not
their duty now to declare for their own
race True Republican speakers, like
Mallory, tell you the Republicans are
opposed to Chinese immigration az q
party, but all know Mallory, and know
why he tells this lie everywhere he
goes. He knows it is false, and so do
all other speakers. They want Office
and power, and the means to obtain
them are not essential if only they sue
ceed. We therefore appeal directly to
tie honest, working voter, land ask him,
be he Republican or Democrat, if it is
not his duty now to meet this issue for
his own sake and that Of his country :
Never leave a crisis for your children
that will debase them, when you can
meet it. The Democracy is the only
refuge.

The Republicans have now found out
that Senate Bill No 43 did pass the
Senate and was sent to the House, and
now the question is, why did not Hon.
S. A. Dawson, who was a member of
the House, keep it from sleeping the
sleep that knows no waking" he is
now Republican candidate for the
Senate, and be should explain his con-
Duct in regard to this bill. Come to

Seeing that your paper takes sides

been looking into the matter as "a
whom farmers, laboreIs and mechan-
ics should vote fer, for Governor, and
although have heretofore voted the
Republican ticket, / shall vote for J.
). Smith and for the following reas-
on. Two years ago We made our
candidates for the legislature on both
sides promise TO pass bill TO reduce
interest on money and to reduce fees
of Clerks aud SherlfIs. Both OF these
bills were introduced and passed.
Mr Moody was member Of the Leg
islature aud worked and voted against
both of these bills. Unfortunately
tho bill 10 reduce fees Of Clerks and
Sheriffs has been declared uuconsLi-
tutional ard hence another bill will
be introduced and will doubtless pass
this fall and II Moody should be elect
ed Governor he would veto the bill,
because he Is opposed to low salaries
am further informed that Moody is
a banker aud money lender and has
close business relations with the o.
II. & n. Co., and hence he IS net
tho kind of man want for Governor,
and for this reason myself and many
other Republicans in Marion county
will vote for Smith, whom We per-

In addition to the measures above
mentioned as haviag been introduced
and passed by Mr.. Bilyeu, he also,
during the session OF 1878, introduc-
ed and secured the passage through
the Senate OF S. u, M. 4s, a. act 10
audit and settle the claims and OK.
psnses growing out OF the Iadian war
Of 1878. This bill also passed the
House and became q law.
He also introduced and passed
through the Senate s. b. No. l35, an
act to amend the law IN regard TO
the care and keeping Of the insane
and idiotic In this State, and to re-
duce the charges for kesping each
insane and Idistic person from s.. so
per week to s.. 90 per week. This
bill also passed the Hsuse and became
. law. The average plumber OF In
sane and idiotic persons kept by the
State for the past four years exceeds
300. This measure has therefore
saved to the State OF Oregoa Since It's
passage the sum OF $3.50 per week,
or the SUN of 81 800 per year, and
for the four years ending Oct 1s,
1882, this measure will have saved
to the State Of Oregon the neat little
sum of s31, 200. 90. We therefore
ask the taxpayers Of Linn Csunty,
who has done mere as legislator in
this State during the past four years,
to reduce expenses and lessen the
burdens OF taxation, than Hon. w.
Il. Biiyeu ? We affirm that he has
always voted for the measures that
wero In the interests Of the people.
His efforts have been against extrav.
agance cf every kind He has intro
duced no bills TO raise the salary Of
any officer. Ho has been an able adj
vocate OF tho peoples interests, and
the record shows that Mr.. Bilyeu has
stood by every pledge made to
the people. Farmers and laboring
men, If you want legislation in yeur
own interest, vote for w. r. Bilyeu
and the whole Democratic ticket.
