GROWING DEspERarE.

Our Republican friends are SO
completely dumb.founded over tho
hopeless divisions aud internal
wranglIngs ia their party all over
the country, that they are now re-
sorting 10 all manner Of devices to
turn public attention from their own
party, to trumped up dangers
threatining the Democrat party.
! The latest effort In that direction
is one made by an obscure member
Of Congress from New York by the
namo of Van Voorhis, who has
sought out a reporter of the Chicago
Tribune aud had himself interviewed,
and the reporter takes a column to
say that Van Voorhis thinks Ben.
Butler will be- the next Democratic
candidate for President. Now,
ameng Democrats, II Is net necessary
to say It, but for the enlightenment
of Republican Journals that are
forcing Tor trying toy Ben. Butler
upon the attention of the people as a
Democratic candidate for President,
We will say this: That none, but
Republican papers, are urging Ben.
Butler for the Democratic nomIna-
ton for the presidency. They do
this because the wish Is farther to
the thought They Intensely desire
the Democrats TO make some such
mistake as nominating Bec. Butler
for the presidency, for their only
hope ofelecting the next President
hangs upon the Democratic making
some such fatal mistake. No Dem
ocratic paper in the land Is urging
the nomination of Ben. Butler.
Once, for all, we tell our readers that
t is folly to think of his being q
candidate. Another silly story 4.
started by the San Francisco Chronicle
to the effect that Senator Grover has
announced that Judge Fields will be
. candidate again for the nomination
1t Is given out in such way as &c
make IFS readers believe that Senator
Grover espouses the cause of Judge
Fields. We do not think 1t Is true
We think Senator Grovor has toe
much good sense and political sagaci-
ty to PHsh the claims Of 50 distastefu
a man as Judge Fields. At all
events We have no hesitation ID
saying that We have no fears what
ever that Ben. Butler or Judge
Fields viii receive the nomination o.
the Democratic party for President

Virgins the weather wiseaere who
predicted such q fearful storm to pass
over this country on the 9th of March,
now appears before the public and
withdraws the prophecy By saying that
he made a mistake in his astronomical
calculations, and that the failure of the
storm removes q world of responsibility
from his mind on account of the terror
his prediction struck in the public
throughout the world. We ara happy
to be able to inform the willy Virgins
that, although his prediction reached
the people Of Oregon some time since,
the terror has not come yet.

KU.kux LAWS.

Our readers have not forgotten the
extraordinary measures resorted TO by
Republican leaders during the days of
Grantism and Caesarism, in order TO
control elections In the SDnGb. These
leaders knew full well that when the
voice of the people of the South was
fairly expressed at the polls, that all
but one or two OF the Southern States
woald cast their votes against the Repub-
lican party. These party leaders, seeing
that their party strength and prestige
were waning in the north under tho
just criticism of a people who love law,
order and personal liberty, resorted to
those extraordinary measures known
as reconstruction laws under which
nearly ali whites were, in elect,
disfranchised, ia order to hold political
power in the South. Thess laws
proving Intellectual, these same leaders
resorted to what was known as Ku
Klux laws for the open, patent purpose
of terrorizing the SJuth and forcing
them to submit to Republican political
domination. These and other laws
enacted for the express purpose of
snbjugating the white people, years
after the war had ceased, were a
disgrace to any people who loved
personal liberty. And, one by one,
they are being set aside as pIisonous
excrescenses upon the body poIitic,
either by the repeating power Of Con-
gress, or the abrogating power Of the
Judicial department of "the general
government. The supreme court of
the Uaited States has had, for some
time, the Ku Klux laws under con-
sideration and have decided such laws
unconstitutional. Thus are the people
determined that their servants shall
return to constitutional methods and
administer the government within the
restrictions imposed by the constitution
of the United States. This is one of
the healthy signs showing the happy
results of the fall elections. Day by
day, month by mouth, and year by
year, must we lop of, crush ou:, and
destroy all unwarfInted assumptions
Of power by the federal or state govern
ments upon any pretext or for any
purpose whatever, until we shall have
educated our people up 20 recognition
of the duties and obligations which they
owe to government, the great object
of whose foundation, was, to secure, in
a liberal sense, the great blessings OF
life, liberty and the pursuit of happi-
ness.
