That tite recent action of the Democratic pnrtymS'ate convention assembled, in de nouncing the supreme court of the United States cf America and Imputing the most nn wort ny anu unpatriotic motives to that li!rh and honorable court, is unworthy of lawabidintr, intelligent, and patriotic American citizens, and directlv tends to the loosen in jr of the fouti. dationof our govern men t, t he suliversion of all lav.-aml i ne overt hrow or the sanctity or a system of indienture, venerable with age and neifeeted or wisdotfr. .

The iriends ot Mr. Mason denied the charges made Ly the Dr., who thereupon made out a sworn statement njid IlkI it publish ed.

There la proposition to do uway with it in the French army. It I said that a drummer is of no use as a combatant, the instiument Is too cumbrous. Another objection is that It is scarcely heard in (lamp wealher. There re about three thousand drummers-in the French army in lime of peace and double that number in time of war. If (the drttnv rfhould be re placed by tlie trumpets the musician could take partj rn, active ' flghthig If there was any ificess'lty for it. The Italian army lias given up the- use oi diuins.

' The Dcinowa accuses Mr. Baum of put'.Iug lip whisky, through his strikers. of course, to .secure votes in the coming election. This is too thin ; no one believes such a silly charge, and all such charges will redowti to. the benefit ot Mr. Baum. The assertion that Mr. Baum lacks r.bility, and can't fill ;the office it elected, U a weaker -and sillier charge than the first. Mr. Bail in is one of the best and most successful business men In the city, and .while he. may be a little off in his pronun ciation of a' tew English words, he can write Ahii spell them whenever it becomes hecessafy, equally us well as hU opponent, if not a little better. No, it won't do to try any of these old. worn out dodge in Linn county, where Mr. Baum has lived so long and is so well known." llis com petency Is acknowledged by all, and Mr. Mason himself will not' make or endorse any such charge as the Democrat makes. Zteal CetrencLoien. The people can trun the Republican party, for it keeps its promises. The current exponses of the State of Oregon for the two years ending Sept. 1, 1880, will be at least: $25,000 ls than the amount appropriated by the last Legis lature for three s-pacifio purposes. Ec uomical mapsgcrliei.t ai d a right con- t-iruciiuti ot li e law reu!atiti the au dit of accounts, has reduced the State expenses at a ratio ot over 81,000 a month. And this lias been done by the pieMiut State administration, a mo. jority ot wbivh is Republican. When a Republican platform pledges ecor.o my ai:d reform, the officers elect under that p'atforra 1 onestly carry out the pledge. Taxpayers will please note this cliaracierihtic feature of m ihe Re pub'ican party. m Notes from ScuMb, Toledo, Or., May 25th, 1S30. Friend Van The canvass openel at Newport yeslerday.

The Hepublicct7i says thai the claim of Eastern Oregon hitherto have been almost entirely overlooked in the leg islature. The reason for this the jour nal claims, is that men hsfve been se lected to represent that portion of. the State at Salem who were not ti ted m any dffjree for the duties they were called upon to perform. It claims that while the members sent from Wasco county were, in the niijin, men ot in tegrity, and had the respect of their feltow-eitiseim, they did not possess those other qualifications necessary to fit them for legislators, to-wit: ability, energy and tact, requisite to enable them to be ot use to their cons-.ituents. And ns tho ''usual style" of men have been again nominated for the Lcgisla. lure, the Republican argues that they should be permitted to remain at home where they can perform the role of sim ple minded citizens, and not be sent to Salem where they would bo ot no use whatever to any one. A'nd the indi cations are that the people of Wasco county are tired of electing nonentities, and will discard tlie whole' 'kit and biliti,' next Monday, and e'ect the en tire Republican ticket. . Meti who hare voted the Democratic ticket for , a life time have come out and open!y jspoused and are working to elect the Republi can ticket. The dissatisfaction t'itb Whiteaker in Eastern- Oregon, pro- elaimed by the delegates from that por tion of the State when In this city at tending5 the Democratic State Conven tion, will have no little influence in de- creasing the Democratic Vote of that section ; and we are informed that the vote will fall greatly behind that of forflser years fn .every coun.ty, save, it may be, that of Umatilla. ,: It is believ ed tfia't !ioti M. C. George .will carry Wasco Grant, and possibly Baiter counties, ilr. George majority .will hardly be less than from I'.StW.to ,000 and it may be eveu mure. .'Rah for M.C.George. A Maine lady asked a drns clerk for 'a bottle of endurable Ink." A few Facta for tbe Thoughtful Voter. A1.BAJJY, Or., May 2Sth. 18Sb. Editor Register: iviiiie it is true as stared iu the Democrat oT the date of May 2Sth.that Capr, Humphrey, tlie Republi can candidate lor State Senator from Linn county, has been a total abstainer for only a little more than a year, yet the Influence which the Democrat would have its readers draw from the iugenioii.4 wording of its article, that Capt. Humphrey is not likely to 'slick," is absolutely false, and does the Capt. very great injustice. - . And now. while we arc on. this subject of Senator, let us ex&nune for a moment into the qualifications of the two opposing candidates for-this office. . The principal, and so fa as.I have seen, as yet tlie only - argutnvuts tsed bjr tbe friends ot Mr. Cosbow, are -that bti uas been a "lifelong Democrat," and that , he will support a Democrat for U.S. Senator in 1332 : and as far as my experience goes these seem to be the only qualifications necessary in Oregon for a Democratic leg islator. : - . Mr. Coahow is, and for years has been a merchant In Brownsvll'o hi this county, and knows nothing about law. One ot the pilncipal requisites in a good legislator is a knowledge of what law is, wherein the law as it stands is defective, and lu what particular it needs to be remedied ; I. e. : whether It should be repealed or only amended. lie should also be thor oughly acquainted with tbe wants and needs ot his constituents. In all these respects Mr. Coshow is wholly and totally deficient. j Xow, how is it with the Republican candidale? Capt. ITiiniplirey is a lawyer in active practice and of acknowledged ability, hud has all tbe constituents necessary to a good Senator ; hi other words, he U fully qualified to fill the place. It is rather ludicroiis.flr the editor of the Democrat to say of Capt. Humphrey "his last signing of the pledge was about a year ago, and since that time ht has kept it -.-lonely, " when this selfsame editor also signed the pledge, about the same time, and has not kept it at all I There is but ouc step from the sublime to ttie ridiculous, A few days sgo I said to a prominent Democrat, "you know ns well a3 I do that your candidate for County Judge is not qualified to fill the office." This he ad mitted, but said -he can quality himself." How U this, taxpayers and voters of Linn county, tlo you propose to elect to tbe of fice of Count j' Judge, the moat responsi" hie office to be filled on, Monday next, a man who is not qualified to Oil, but "can quality himelf?" He has been practising or attempting to practice law for four years and I! he Is not qualified now lor the office, is it likely he will qualify himself, in the next feu r years ? .Or? if he can do so, tlo you propose to allow him to do it r-.t your expense ? Let him qualify himself first and then seek the tflice. Are you willing to risk the estates ot the deaa and those who may die in the next lour years, and the rights ot the widows .and orphans of your county in the hand of a man who does not understand your probate law and caunot guard their interests, and whose only interest is in the salary he may draw? Are you willing to risk the financial in terests of your county iu the hands of a young and inexperienced fledgling ? Whom hate we uo.v to oppose this in experienced, unqualiSed young Demo cratic aspirant for judicial honor? AVe liave a man who has practiced law among us for years and who fully understands our probate law, the interests ot tlie county and taxpayers, and will carefully guard our finances ; in whose hands estates will be safely administered and - th rights of tlie wiuows anil orphans will be' sacredly guarded. There will not be in the future long and expensive litigation growing, oat of detective and it regular probate proceed ings, and the finances of the county will not be iu Irretrievable confusion. Those who knew the two men, know I speak words of truth and soberness. For the last four years the affairs ot this couuty liave been administered by the Hon. S. A.
