THE LEGISLATIVE TICKET.

No county in the State should have better
representation in the General Assembly than
Marion county. No county in the State de-
mands so good one There are numerous
reasons that should arouse the voters of this
city and county to the imperative necessity of
sending to the Legislature the best men whose
services it is possible to command. With a
diminished assessment, with increasing ex-
penses, with complex and inefficient system
of county business, the interests of Marion
county cry aloud for reform. The Journal
has frequently said that the man who will de-
wise and carry into effect simple economical
and efficient system of administration for this
city and county will be a great public
benefactor. Such thing is worthy the
best mans ambition, and thought and
work. But whether so sweeping a change
can be effected now as should be, there still
remains the fact that Marion county must
ask and receive important legislation at the
hands of the next Legislature. Independent
of the general requirements of the State, this
county has special needs that must be looked
after.
These, are considerations that should ad-
dress themselves to every voter and tax
payer, irrespective of party. Does the Jour-
nal misstate the fact when it says that, with
one possible exception, the Democratic legis-
lative ticket is absolutely unworthy of any,
ones support? What hope do the men on
that ticket give of intelligent and in
fuential serviceG On the other hand,
does the journal overstate the fact
when it says that, as a whole, the ticket pre-
scented by the Republican party was never ex-
celled in its promise for intelligent and in
fuential serviceY Here are the men: Capt.
Parker s. Carson, an honorable farmer, long
resident of the county, man of sterling abil-
tiles and saving common sense. John l..
character; speaker of extraordinary gifts, and
lawyer of force and experience much beyond

worthy representative of the workingmen, a
man who works with his hands, and who has
the character and habits necessary to make
him strong anal Influential with his colleagues.

THE old, old trick of lying, and SANDER, and
perjury at the last hour, when it is believed
to be too late to counterfeit whatever result
may be hoped to come from it, is likely to be
resorted to by the desperate Democracy. A

Morey forged letter in 1880, and has signalized
the present canvass by the most cowardly and

will not hesitate at anything

1T cannot be possible that man like By

made such disreputable appointments in the

The most unenviable creature on the face of
the earth to-day is, perhaps, the man in Wis
consin who forgot to close the switch, which,
being left open, was the gate of death to an
unknown number of people. He was far
from being an unfeeling man, probably; was,
more than likely, as tender hearted and con-
siderate of the comfort of others as any among
his associates; he merely forgot, for a fatal
moment, his duty. But were he the most
cruel and callous of beings the shrieks and
means of the perishing victims of his neglect
will scarcely cease to echo in his ears while
life lasts. He may fail to remember many
events, but that scene of horror he will not
forget. He may have. been good husband,
and father, and neighbor; he may have lived
an honest life and have done many good
deeds in his day, but henceforth the recollec-
tons of an exemplary career will be as naught
because, once, he forgot.

Promised RnORBAnKs.

1t is to be expected that the Democratic
managers will signalize the conclusion of their
campaign Of slanderous abuse and shameless
evasion by the issuing of an avalanche of all
sorts of lying attacks upon Republican candi-
dates They have been preparing for this for
some days, and have scraped the highways
and byways for material to use to the detri-
ment of Republican nominees Just what
shape it may take no one except the defamers
and assassins engaged in the work may be able
to definitely tell; but whatever shape it may
have, it will have the trade mark of Demo-
cratic fraud and corruption about it, whereby
its parentage and design may be readily
known.
1t was the Democratic party that prepared
and spread broadcast the forged Morey letter
during the last days of the campaign of 1880.
The most reputable q and honorable ~ Demo.
Gratis, men like Abram s. Hewitt, engaged in
the work after they knew that the letter was
forgery. The Democratic managers of the
present campaign here have not hesitated to
indulge in falsehood, Misrepresentation and
abuse, in the hope of benefting some of their
special pets upon the local ticket, and it is
not to be expected that they will permit the
closing hours of the canvass to pass without
signalling their desperation by some new de-
vice of scoundrelism.
The desperation of the ring demands heroic
measures. They feel the ground slipping
from under them. They realize that the PEG.
pie propose that the condition of the State
treasury shall be known and the State
money counted if there be any in the treas.
ury to count. They know that all over the
State there is profound indignation at the
revelations made of the management of the
Insane Hospital and other benevolent institu-
tons. The evidence of the frauds, corrup-
tons and outrages practiced in these State in
stitutions has not been from Republicans,
but from Democrats, and officers and en-
ployes of the asylums and hospitals. The
Democratic managers have been unable to
stem the current of popular feeling that has
set in against these awful abuses
affecting the dearest interests of the
people of the State, and hence they
have resorted to anything in their
desperation that might tend to divert public
attention. During the next day or two the
people may expect anything and everything
in the shape of campaign roorbacks. But,
whatever may be the tactics adopted by the
Democrats, let no Republican in State, county
or city, be DETECTED from the straight, steady
line of attack.
Open the Treasury books.
Count-the money.
Rescue the insane from a management that
feeds them diseased meat and butter grease.
Turn out the rascals from the State institu-
tons who have grown rich from broken con-
tracts--taking at good prices for unfit
supplies.

mander.

The Democratic ticket in Oregon
this year is distinctly recognized as
the workingman's ticket. It is headed
by a man who at trying time did not
hesitate to 'show his hand" and pub.
licly proclaim his sympathy with the
toiling masses. 1t required no small
amount of nerve to come to the front
when Mr. Pennoysr did and speak a
word for free labor. He should be
remembered to the extent OF a vote, at
least on election day. by every man
who swings an axe, follows plow,
strikes hot iron, soldiers tin cup, shoes
a horse, shoyes . jack plane, digs post
hole, grubs . blackjack, sticks type,
drives dray horse, runs an engine,
stokes a steamboat, cuts cordwoed,
helps load a ship, digs a ditch, lays
brick, quarries stone, spreads mortar
or does any other kind of manual labor
for hire. The man who is not afraid
to spend out for free labor when social
and business ostracism is threatened
for his daring to do so, can well be
trused to execute laws framed in free
labor's interest. SUCH A MAN is

The Coos Bay News correspondent
writes our sentiments on the hog ques-
tion which the voters Of Douglas coun-
ty must vote upon the 7th of June.
EDITOR News: The proposition to
con6ne that necessary nuisance, the
hog, within proper and decent limits is
to be submitted to the popular vote in
the county of Coos at the approaching
general election. 1t may be safely,
assumed that the amount of fencing
required to protect gardens and grain
fields form the depredations of this in
stinctiye thief and robber, involves
the expenditure of more time and
labor annually than would pay at a
fair valuation for double the quantity
of pork resulting from his unrestained
ravages. The long nosed, lank, filthy,
wayside hog is as unpro6table to fatten
as he is abominable to behold. His
habits and appearance are fcarfully
suggestive of trichinosis. He Is un.
fit for human food. On the other
hand, swine, properly reared and cared
for, are pleasing to the eye, economic
ally valuable, and yield rich appe-
tizing pabulum. Such are only grown
under careful management and control.
They steal from no man, nor breed
strife with any. Let us have whole
some pork and bacon, honest ard clean.
