fllE lICTER-OCEAX. 1873. . 1874. % omSoomomoam THE LAR&9T CIRCULATION IN THE NORTHWEST) TIIEIVTEItOdvW FOR 1874. Established less than Wo f Huh if nee m « representative Republican p-sftel, pfedttH l to maintain and defend the principles and dr-* gunizatiou of the great National ReptfblJcaif party, the Intm-Ocf.an has attained d escalation and influence with the masses of i U voters everywhere to entitle it to appfoedhr the commencement of a new calendar ybttf and to prepare for the preliminary work df the next campaign, the shadow of which is already casting itself upon the country, in the confident belief that its Iriend* will nerd no other specific pledge for the future than has been given in its columns from day to day during the past eighteen months. Since its first publication it has maintained the position of THE LEADING REPUBLICAN NEWSPAPER in the northwest. to which it was assigned by universal assent, in the excited canvass which resulted in the second and triumphant election of President Grant. THE EE EMIES OF THE COUNTRY are vigilantly at work. Despite the overwhelming rebuke administered to them in 1872, tbe opposition are skillfully massing their forces fora more determined Onslaught upon the Repnblican organization at the neii State and, National elections. Encouraged by the apathy of Republicans in the “offyear,” seizing the uupiecedented financial stringency as a pretext, and using as a hoodwink the deep feeling among the agricultural classes for liefer and cheaper modes of transportation Umu now exist. THE DEMOCRACY, under as many names as there are hungry Demagogues eager for office, is getting itself into readiness to become once more the Ruling Party of the nation. IN THE SOUTH the old Democracy of Secession and Rebellion is being warmed into life by theappurent reverses Republicanism has suffered in the North. The election of Allen in Ohio, the triumph of Tammany in New York, and the few desultory successes which have come to Anti-Republican tickets in various portions of the West and Northwest, have inspired the rebels of 1861 with the hope that the day is dawning when the Lost Cause is to be voted into a victory they failed to achieve by means of the bnlietnud bayonet. Already R. M.T. Hunter, a former Senator from Virginia,*and a member of the Cabinet of Jell Davis, bos publish:d his scheme for Iho virtual payment Of Four Hundred Millions of Dollars for the Emancipated Slaves of the Sonth. The Richmond (Va.) Whig and -Governor Gilbert Walker are urging thisj>lan with all pertinacity; and there can be little doubt that a large uarty of Southern Representatives ill the Forty-thiid Congress will be prepared to advocate.tbo payment of this money by tile General Government. The past history of the Democratic party gives no warrant that It will oppose this infamous robbery of tbe people of the North for the benefitol traitors: but if the party is true to itself and its instincts the South will find it and Us representatives a subservient ally. TIIE PAYMENT OF THE REBEL DEBT is another scheme that is broadly hiuted at in many parts of the South, and is, without doubt, one of the projects to which the leading Democrats of that section would address themselves <f the time should ever come when a majority of the Northern States and the General Government should be in the hands of the party which helped the rebels in tlioir work of destroying the Union. These are not fanciful issues. They are real dangers, either to be met face to face, or else to be squelched in (heir inception by the continued successes of that organization which crushed the rebellion, gave freedom to the slaves, and destroyed the slave-holding Confederacy. THE FARMERS know that the IrtTßa-OctAM was their earliest, as it has been their staunchest and warmest, friend. It is emphatically tlx* organ of the people in the best sense of the term, believing in the fullest protection of the rights of the many against the encroachments of live few. It believes that all chartered corporations should be held to be subservient to the power that rrsated them, and without an infringement of (be just rights of others it insists, and wilt eew* liuoe to iusist. that ail corporations enjoying special privileges voted to them by the people shall serve the people fairly aud justly, at a compensation allowing a reasonable- profix upon the actual capital employed.
