TRIP YRom rRIxEyILLE TO rmE DALLEs.

We are permitted TO make the fol-
lowing extract from a letter received by
gentleman Gf this county from a gem
tlemsn who lately made a trip from
Prineyille to The Dailes. We think it
worthy of perusal
"The distance from Prineville 10 The

country as any in the winter, with an

REFRESHING.

The committee appointed by the CAL
ifornia Legislature to prepare bill to
apportion that State into Congressional
districts. has submitted basis Of rep
resentation that is truly refreshing in.
these degenerate times of gerrymander.
ing. It will be remembered by our
readers that ct the last election in that
State, the Democrats elected all the
Congressman, and that, too, under
very unfair apportionment of the dis.
tricts made by Republicans. An appor-
tionment could have been made At this
time which would have appeared fair
upon its face, but which would have
left Republicans with no grounds of
hope of slecting single Congressman.
But Democrats with magnanimity
not common 10 political parties, by its
committee, has presented plan Of ap.
portionment which called forth the
heartiest commendatioa even from Re-
publicans. The population and politi-
cal complexion of the districts as appor.
toned are as follows: ea
First District Population LIT, 1856,
Hancock's majori.y 5; Glasscock over
Edgerton 1883. Second District Pop
ulation l45,sO9, Garfeld's majority
54s Glasseock's majority 95s. Third
District Population, 14S,624. Garaeld's
majority, 9s6; Glasscock's majority.
2.746. Fourth District Population,
l4l,32s. Hancock's majority, 92s !;
Glasscock's majority, 3,737. Fifth Dis.
trict- Population, $4,000. Garfeld's
majority, 1874; Glasseock's majority,
1875. Sixth District ct-PoPulation, l40,-
527, HancOsk's majority, SOC; Glass.
cocks majority, 9.544. It will bO seen
from the above that ia 1880 the Rspub-
licans had majority in three of the
proposed new districts, and the Demo-
Gratis had majority in the other three.
1t that time the Democrats had a small
majority Of the popular vote Of the
State. Another plan, by which the
Republicans would have no hops of
electing single Congressman, was
presented to the committee by Asem-
blyman, Del Vale, Of Los Angeles, but
this was rejected by decided vote of
the committee, and the above adopted.
This is the true way TO secure leiorm.
Let the people Isbnke those Legislstors
who viii net obey the voice Of the peo-
pie. By renanding them to- obscurity
and electing those who are boldly and
earnestly placing themselves in line
with that healthy sentiment that de-
mands an abatement Of the evils and
wrongs which have cursed the country
during the lask ten years.

On the 9th, 2oth and 20sh days of

will convene at Independence, Polk

that our own Linn County IL highly

attainments, as well as her wonderful
commercial advantages, it will be of
vital Importance TO her instructors to
contribute largely Of their most care
fully matured methods and, in turn,
receive the golden thoughts Of others
whose rich experiences have made them
"the attractive Of the literate."
Ministers aud other classes Of educa-
tors attend meetings where their peers
and snperiors disseminate Information
the most of which, "boolIs have failed
to tell" The very contact with such
men becomes inspiring and productive
of beneficial results. Thus it is, many
instructors ofthe bumbler class (such

him were SO close, that they know the
undisclosed history Of the General, and

damaging character. If Republicans
are disposed to complain of this course
they must go to Republicans and not
Democrats with their grievances.

REPRESENTATIVE GEORGE.


For the purpose Of refreshing the
memories of the voters OF Oregon as
to the many promises made by the
friends of Mr.. George In the last
campaign, we modestly rise in our
place TO ask those friends what Mr..
George has done or Is doing in Con-
gress to fulfill those promises. We
heard it proclaimed form Newport to
Baker City, and from the Siskiyous to
the Columbia, that George was on the
Committee Of commerce and would
do great things for our State as this
position was never given to an Ore
gon representative before. But we
ask again, what has he done to fulfill
those promises made with such
flourish Of trumpets ? After the fourth
OF March he will be remandsd to the
minority side of the house where he
will rarely be heard Of again. Have
the people been deceived and impos-
ed upon i?
