Duniwayand Mrs. Weatherford and several others were considerably injured. No serious damage. An opponent of the public school system insists that if you teach, a boy to write, he is much less likely to make his mark in after life.

The lumber floated down tho creek Women of Dayton, Yamhill county, filed a remonstranco before the Coun ty Court against a saloon keeper having license.

Albany, Oregon. falcation of Collins, Pension Agent of tbe District of Columbia, ilouuders out of tho scrape" in this way : Tho item in question was made up by tho editor under tho bend ot "Cou-denso- d Telegrams," for tho Oreyonian of Monday, tho 5th inst. When tho foreman came to make up the "lorms" for the press, ho wanted an item of three or lour lines to till out a col- umn in another part of the paper. As it happened, he took this item for that purpose. Isn't it very singular, Uro. Scott, thnt the foreman should clmnco to fall npon that particular item to bo cached away in an obscure corner of the paper when thero wcro forty or fifty other items of fur less importance that could have as well been used ? Probably ye foreman could a tale un fold in regard to his orders from ye chief in regard to ye item. JiEAUTY at uoukt. uero is a very unkind dig from Mrs. Duuiway's Acic JVbrthtwt, aimed at tho wives of two Radical Senators whom her hus- band assisted by his vote to elect; and we venturo tho assertion that Mrs. Duuiway's husband will next June vote the straight Radical ticket and thus again aid Senator Coibett and his "beautiful" wife (whom Sister D. affects to despise) in securing a scat "at court." But hear her: Mrs. Senator Williams and Mrs. Senator Corbelt are announced by the Jenkins' press as belles of the Capital. It rejoiceth Oretron women exceed ingly to hear of this, for these ladies when at home, among their peers, are considered very oruniany mortals. We are proud to learn that average Oregon women are such a social suc- cess in Washington as to stand before tho public as champions of beauty and intellectuality. Wonder what the woi Id would say if some of our brightest and most beautiful women were to go t Court? The Oreyonian sixm.ich-ache- s terri- bly because tho Herald "n:eddles im pertinently" in the little till in which the former paper and oursch' .avc been engaged about the "suppression of testimony" of Radical defalcations. Now it is nothiug more thau right that we should "double teams" on the Custom House organ grimier, because it takes one of us to watch his dark tricks while the other "nails him to the cat head" because f his general cusedness. He's so i!i(pery that it requires one of us to hoi I him by the top knot while tho other administers the castigation. Civil Service reform is being earn" estly advocated ami carried ii;to prac- tice by the Republican party. Jack- sonville Sentinel. In view of the fact that over sixty-on- e millions of dollars have been sto- len by that party in the lat four months, and the recent impeachment or public disgrace of nine Republican Governors for malfeasance in oflice, this statement of the Sentinel, for sublime impudence and ineffable cheek, now bears off the palm. Par- tisan mend.icitv can no lariliur go. Tils Herald and the Democrat have got the Oreyonian iu a tight place on that little "suppression" bus-nes- s, and now it cries out: "Two on one Un't fair!" We would like to know how in thunder we are going to do anything with that slippery fellow of the Oreyonian unless we surround him and give him no chance to cut and run for it? We'll twist him out cf his hole with a forked stick and let the Herald skin him and hang up the bide. The Wrestling Joe case at Portland is settled by compromise. The es- tate, which is valued at $300,000, has been divided among the claimants so that "Wrestling Joe" and bis friends receive $150,000, the party represen- ted by Messrs. A. C. Gibbs and Han- nah $100,000, and Messrs. I add and Knott $50,000. Thus a case which has attracted the attention of every newspaper in the United States, and which seemed as romantic as the pro- duction of any romancist, is proba- bly settled. Governor Wood's veto of the Utah admission bill excited greatly tho ire of the Mormons. George Q. Can- non, member of the Territorial Coun- cil, said the ignorance of the veto message was only equaled by its im- pudence. If he had a boy twelve years old who could not write a bet- ter document, he would cuff bis ears. A motion was finally made and car- ried that the veto should not be spread upon the minutes. Hi V A great excitement was reported at Canyon City a few days ago over the discovery of a rich mine within 300 of the court house. The ledge is eight feet thick and yields gold in fabulous quantities. '. This discovery it is believed will create a revolution in affairs at Canyon City. A barbarous barber at Portland is under arrest for committing' rape up- on a girl only ten days old. The child is likely to die from the injuries received and her grief stricken par- ents are nearly distracted at their terrible misfortune. . The women of the world will be gratified to hear that the Corvallis debating society has decided that the mind of woman ia not inferior to that of man. v : ' Portlanders will petition the next Legialatcre to license gambling, ' '..""; conviction to the minds of all reason- able and thinking men that Demo- cratic principles should prevail, and the party be once more placed in power, so as to administer the gov- ernment of the United States on the the old principles of the Constitution, such as had prevailed throug'.it a pe- riod of near 70 years of posperity and peace. The speaker showed that Democratic principles still remained the same as when they were in power; that they had administered the gov- ernment from its inception, until the present Republican party came iuto power, with the. exception of a very short period; that the Republican party had in the course of ten years radically changed the whole principles of the Constitution, by what is termed tho 14th and 15th Amendments, thus introducing new issues unheard of before, with all their ruinous conse quences; that tho Administration of President Lincoln, bad as it was, might be termed good when com pared with the Administration of President Grant, whose policy was to increase his patronage and power by the creation of new offices, encourag- ing fraud and peculation in every de partment of the government, which is now being plainly shown by able and leading Republicans themselves. He spoke of the corruptions of Secretary Boutwell, relative to his management of what is called the Syndicate fund also the effects of the United States bonds not being taxable; that he was in favor of some law being passed to tax at least all new issues of bonds; that the partial liquidation of the public debt as represented by the Republican party, was measurably a fraud on the people; that instead of being paid it was only changed into another shape. He spoke of the op- pression of a high protective tariff; ibat its operation was against the la- boring class, the consumer, and in favor ot the capitalist, building them up in wealth and power, while placing burdens upon the shoulders of the poor man; that Democrats were in favor of equal and exact justice to one and to all alike, and opposed to all class-lesrislalio- He u Tired all Democrats to be wide awake to all such encroachments npon their rights and liberties; that all the monied in corporations of the country work against the interest of the people; that the great fight now was capital againt labor hence the nncessity of a strict watch on every hand ; that he was opposed to Congress giving to such monopolies the public bonds. which had been designed for home steads for the poorer classes, by the former actions of the Democratic party while in power, which land grants to those monied incorporations are building them up in wealth and power in opposition to the laboring interests of the country. He said that he was not opposed to the improve- ments of the country, but that be was in favor of giving all needful encour- agement to such improvements ; but needful laws should be passed to keep them from encroaching npon the rights of the people. He spoke also of the interference of Congress with the rights of States in regulating the man- ner of voting. In relation to the idea of new de- partures and passive policies he said be was opposed to all such innova- tions, the encouragement of which bad already and would still tend to the disorganization of the Democratic party; that we wanted peace and harmony, but not at the expense oi principles; that the arguing in favor of such principles was uncalled for; that the Democratic party, three mil- lions strong, should be Passive, and let a few discontented Republicans take the lead, would be madness in the extreme. Thus the discourse closed. Ican-no- t depict in its proper colors the merits of the speech, therefore, I have only hinted at some of the most prom- inent points. . Yours, with due respect, JOHN T. CROOKS. We were slightly in error last week in stating that the Oreyonian of the 5th inst. did not contain the item announcing the defalcation of Collins, Pension Agent. Subsequent dilligent search has unearthed the item from its hiding place in an obscure corner on the fourth page of that paper, where no more belonged than if it had been injected into the middle of a quack medical advertisement. How ever, the principle involved is the same as we originally asserted. It was ex- cluded from its legitimate place among the dispatches and news items for the purpose of. suppressing or hiding damaging testimony against the Oreyoniaris masters at Washington, and that paper's palpable chagrin at our discovery of its reprehensible trick must sufficiently satisfy the pub- lic of its guilt in the matter. 0'Mea.ea says John Haileyis a bet ter marksman than Pennoyer, be cause when the former spit in bis face be made a center shot and threw the juice "plump sock" down his throat; while Pennoyer in a sort of slobber- ing way, "gomed" his face all over. ' I By order of M. V. Browx, A. Parker. Committee. A. W. Staxard, J A DEFAULTER EOS PfiESEDHBT. The Washington Patriot under its sew management is doing noble set vice for the people in bringing to light the corrupt and thieving pro pensities and practices of their offi- cial servants. It haa recently brought out for public consideration the interesting little fact that our pure-minde- d and high-tone- d chief magistrate, Mr. TJ. S. Grant, is a government defaulter of long standing. When serving as Commissary and Quartermaster in the army during the Mexican War he failed to account for all the funds which came into his hands, so that at the close of the war there was a balance standing against him of more than five thousand dollars. He was repeatedly asked by the Third Audi- tor to make a settlement, and as re- peatedly neglected to do any thing of the kind. At one time Congress voted him an indemnity of $1,000, on account of money stolen irom his funds during the war. This indem- nity the Third Auditor seized upon and put to his credit on the deficit, which reduced the principal of the sum due to just $4,441. This sum has been due for twenty-thre- e years, and at six per cent, compound inter- est 0e total amount due at tlie present day to the U. S. Governmenl from this defaulting Paymaster, U. S. Grant, ex- ceeds fifteen thousand dollars in round numbers. The Patriot's article seems to have caught the attention of Mr. Grant and caused him some uneasiness of mind. In reply he trumps up the statement that he lost his vouchers by shipwreck, and that alone pre- vented him from putting the thing right. It happens, however, that he never before told this story of the loss of vouchers. He made no pre- tence of any such loss when he was dunned time after time by the Audi- tor, and it is only after the lapse of more than twenty years, when the fact of his defalcation is given the public for consideration along with hundreds of similar defalcations on the part of his subordinates, that he bethinks himself of the loss! It is for the sensible people of the country to decide for themselves which is the more probable lhat Mr. Grant had his vouchers stolen, and never mentioned the fact when repeatedly called upon to settle the account against him, or whether be is in plain words a thief and defaulter, to-da- y honestly owing the govern- ment more than fifteen thousand dollars. ' JIB. CSAS0B AT SCI0. Scio, Feb. 13, 1872. Editor Democrat : Hon. N. n. Cranor's speech here, last Saturday, was universally com- mended. Two hours of logical elo- quence surprised the most sanguine. 31r. Cranor possesses in an eminent degree the qualifications of a good pd litical speaker. His quiet yet potent arguments contrast so favorably with the usual tirade and bombast indicted upon club meetings, that I almost hope a new era is dawning. By his earnest manner and plain yet forcible language, Mr. Cranor will arrest the attention of his most careless auditors and leave a lasting impression on the enquiring mind, i Would that it were possible for him to speak in every pre- cinct in Oregon prior . to the first Monday in June. Come and bear him, Republicans, when you have the privilege ; ' he will not offend, but reason with you. V X.

falcation of Collins, Pension Agent oftbe District of Columbia, ilouudersout of tho scrape" in this way :

Tho item in question was made upby tho editor under tho bend ot "Cou-denso- d

Telegrams," for tho Oreyonianof Monday, tho 5th inst. When thoforeman came to make up the "lorms"for the press, ho wanted an item ofthree or lour lines to till out a col-umn in another part of the paper. Asit happened, he took this item forthat purpose.

Isn't it very singular, Uro. Scott,thnt the foreman should clmnco tofall npon that particular item to bocached away in an obscure corner ofthe paper when thero wcro forty orfifty other items of fur less importancethat could have as well been used ?

Probably ye foreman could a tale unfold in regard to his orders from yechief in regard to ye item.

JiEAUTY at uoukt. uero is avery unkind dig from Mrs. Duuiway'sAcic JVbrthtwt, aimed at tho wives oftwo Radical Senators whom her hus-

band assisted by his vote to elect; andwe venturo tho assertion that Mrs.Duuiway's husband will next Junevote the straight Radical ticket andthus again aid Senator Coibett andhis "beautiful" wife (whom Sister D.affects to despise) in securing a scat"at court." But hear her:

Mrs. Senator Williams and Mrs.Senator Corbelt are announced by theJenkins' press as belles of the Capital.It rejoiceth Oretron women exceedingly to hear of this, for these ladieswhen at home, among their peers, areconsidered very oruniany mortals.We are proud to learn that averageOregon women are such a social suc-cess in Washington as to stand beforetho public as champions of beautyand intellectuality. Wonder whatthe woi Id would say if some of ourbrightest and most beautiful womenwere to go t Court?

The Oreyonian sixm.ich-ache- s terri-

bly because tho Herald "n:eddles im

pertinently" in the little till in whichthe former paper and oursch' .avcbeen engaged about the "suppressionof testimony" of Radical defalcations.Now it is nothiug more thau rightthat we should "double teams" on theCustom House organ grimier, becauseit takes one of us to watch his darktricks while the other "nails him tothe cat head" because f his generalcusedness. He's so i!i(pery that itrequires one of us to hoi I him by thetop knot while tho other administersthe castigation.

Civil Service reform is being earn"estly advocated ami carried ii;to prac-tice by the Republican party. Jack-sonville Sentinel.

In view of the fact that over sixty-on- e

millions of dollars have been sto-

len by that party in the lat fourmonths, and the recent impeachmentor public disgrace of nine RepublicanGovernors for malfeasance in oflice,this statement of the Sentinel, forsublime impudence and ineffablecheek, now bears off the palm. Par-tisan mend.icitv can no lariliur go.

Tils Herald and the Democrathave got the Oreyonian iu a tightplace on that little "suppression" bus-nes- s,

and now it cries out: "Two onone Un't fair!" We would like toknow how in thunder we are going todo anything with that slippery fellowof the Oreyonian unless we surroundhim and give him no chance to cutand run for it? We'll twist him outcf his hole with a forked stick and letthe Herald skin him and hang up thebide.

The Wrestling Joe case at Portlandis settled by compromise. The es-

tate, which is valued at $300,000, hasbeen divided among the claimants sothat "Wrestling Joe" and bis friendsreceive $150,000, the party represen-ted by Messrs. A. C. Gibbs and Han-

nah $100,000, and Messrs. I add andKnott $50,000. Thus a case whichhas attracted the attention of everynewspaper in the United States, andwhich seemed as romantic as the pro-duction of any romancist, is proba-bly settled.

Governor Wood's veto of the Utahadmission bill excited greatly tho ireof the Mormons. George Q. Can-non, member of the Territorial Coun-

cil, said the ignorance of the vetomessage was only equaled by its im-

pudence. If he had a boy twelveyears old who could not write a bet-ter document, he would cuff bis ears.A motion was finally made and car-ried that the veto should not bespread upon the minutes.

conviction to the minds of all reason-

able and thinking men that Demo-

cratic principles should prevail, andthe party be once more placed inpower, so as to administer the gov-

ernment of the United States on thethe old principles of the Constitution,such as had prevailed throug'.it a pe-

riod of near 70 years of posperityand peace. The speaker showed thatDemocratic principles still remainedthe same as when they were in power;that they had administered the gov-

ernment from its inception, until thepresent Republican party came iutopower, with the. exception of a veryshort period; that the Republicanparty had in the course of ten yearsradically changed the whole principlesof the Constitution, by what is termedtho 14th and 15th Amendments, thusintroducing new issues unheard ofbefore, with all their ruinous consequences; that tho Administration ofPresident Lincoln, bad as it was,might be termed good when compared with the Administration ofPresident Grant, whose policy was toincrease his patronage and power bythe creation of new offices, encourag-ing fraud and peculation in every department of the government, which isnow being plainly shown by able andleading Republicans themselves. Hespoke of the corruptions of SecretaryBoutwell, relative to his managementof what is called the Syndicate fundalso the effects of the United Statesbonds not being taxable; that he wasin favor of some law being passed totax at least all new issues of bonds;that the partial liquidation of thepublic debt as represented by theRepublican party, was measurably afraud on the people; that instead ofbeing paid it was only changed intoanother shape. He spoke of the op-

pression of a high protective tariff;ibat its operation was against the la-

boring class, the consumer, and infavor ot the capitalist, building themup in wealth and power, while placingburdens upon the shoulders of thepoor man; that Democrats were infavor of equal and exact justice toone and to all alike, and opposed toall class-lesrislalio- He u Tired allDemocrats to be wide awake to allsuch encroachments npon their rightsand liberties; that all the monied incorporations of the country workagainst the interest of the people;that the great fight now was capitalagaint labor hence the nncessity ofa strict watch on every hand ; thathe was opposed to Congress givingto such monopolies the public bonds.which had been designed for homesteads for the poorer classes, by theformer actions of the Democraticparty while in power, which landgrants to those monied incorporationsare building them up in wealth andpower in opposition to the laboringinterests of the country. He said thathe was not opposed to the improve-ments of the country, but that be wasin favor of giving all needful encour-

agement to such improvements ; butneedful laws should be passed tokeep them from encroaching npon therights of the people. He spoke alsoof the interference of Congress with therights of States in regulating the man-

ner of voting.In relation to the idea of new de-

partures and passive policies he saidbe was opposed to all such innova-tions, the encouragement of whichbad already and would still tend tothe disorganization of the Democraticparty; that we wanted peace andharmony, but not at the expense oiprinciples; that the arguing in favorof such principles was uncalled for;that the Democratic party, three mil-

lions strong, should be Passive, andlet a few discontented Republicanstake the lead, would be madness inthe extreme.

Thus the discourse closed. Ican-no- t

depict in its proper colors themerits of the speech, therefore, I haveonly hinted at some of the most prom-inent points. .

Yours, with due respect,JOHN T. CROOKS.

We were slightly in error lastweek in stating that the Oreyonian ofthe 5th inst. did not contain the itemannouncing the defalcation of Collins,Pension Agent. Subsequent dilligentsearch has unearthed the item fromits hiding place in an obscure corneron the fourth page of that paper,where no more belonged than if ithad been injected into the middle of aquack medical advertisement. However, the principle involved is the sameas we originally asserted. It was ex-

cluded from its legitimate placeamong the dispatches and news itemsfor the purpose of. suppressing orhiding damaging testimony against theOreyoniaris masters at Washington,and that paper's palpable chagrin atour discovery of its reprehensibletrick must sufficiently satisfy the pub-lic of its guilt in the matter.

0'Mea.ea says John Haileyis a better marksman than Pennoyer, because when the former spit in bis facebe made a center shot and threw thejuice "plump sock" down his throat;while Pennoyer in a sort of slobber-ing way, "gomed" his face all over.

A DEFAULTER EOS PfiESEDHBT.

The Washington Patriot under itssew management is doing noble setvice for the people in bringing tolight the corrupt and thieving propensities and practices of their offi-

cial servants.It haa recently brought out for

public consideration the interestinglittle fact that our pure-minde- d andhigh-tone- d chief magistrate, Mr. TJ.

S. Grant, is a government defaulterof long standing. When serving asCommissary and Quartermaster inthe army during the Mexican War hefailed to account for all the fundswhich came into his hands, so that atthe close of the war there was abalance standing against him of morethan five thousand dollars. He wasrepeatedly asked by the Third Audi-

tor to make a settlement, and as re-

peatedly neglected to do any thingof the kind. At one time Congressvoted him an indemnity of $1,000,on account of money stolen irom hisfunds during the war. This indem-

nity the Third Auditor seized uponand put to his credit on the deficit,which reduced the principal of thesum due to just $4,441. This sumhas been due for twenty-thre- e years,and at six per cent, compound inter-est 0e total amount due at tlie presentday to the U. S. Governmenl from thisdefaulting Paymaster, U. S. Grant, ex-

ceedsfifteen thousand dollars in roundnumbers.

The Patriot's article seems to havecaught the attention of Mr. Grantand caused him some uneasiness ofmind. In reply he trumps up thestatement that he lost his vouchersby shipwreck, and that alone pre-vented him from putting the thingright. It happens, however, that henever before told this story of theloss of vouchers. He made no pre-tence of any such loss when he wasdunned time after time by the Audi-tor, and it is only after the lapse ofmore than twenty years, when thefact of his defalcation is given thepublic for consideration along withhundreds of similar defalcations onthe part of his subordinates, that hebethinks himself of the loss!

It is for the sensible people of thecountry to decide for themselveswhich is the more probable lhatMr. Grant had his vouchers stolen,and never mentioned the fact whenrepeatedly called upon to settle theaccount against him, or whether beis in plain words a thief and defaulter,to-da- y honestly owing the govern-ment more than fifteen thousanddollars.

Scio, Feb. 13, 1872.Editor Democrat :

Hon. N. n. Cranor's speech here,last Saturday, was universally com-

mended. Two hours of logical elo-

quence surprised the most sanguine.31r. Cranor possesses in an eminentdegree the qualifications of a good pdlitical speaker. His quiet yet potentarguments contrast so favorably withthe usual tirade and bombast indictedupon club meetings, that I almosthope a new era is dawning.
