democrat: i 29', THE AMERICAN DEBT MAXIA Few realize the chilling and blighting fact that the present generation are contracting debts to the extent of thousand of millioua which they cannot, ami, in fact, do not intend to pay, but which are to bo inherited by our children, and form a burden as heavy as they can bear, even if they do not steTgf under or become crushed by it. With reckless extravagance we contract debts for future generations to pay, forgetting that their necessities, growing out of wars and other things, will undoubtedly be equal to the means derived from their own exertions," without the addition that our misfortunes, extravagance and folly shall add. How can we expect that they will be able to more than meet their own expenses when we do not manfully grapple with any, and pay our own? Do we expect, that our descendants will earn more, or be more economical, or freer from extraordinary calls thanVe are? A Are we wiiling to admit our inferiority and Suability to earn our living and meet our own expenses, and do we wish to affirm thatwe believe those who will jollow ns will be able to do more than we can or have done? The last fonr generations have four wars the revolution', that of 1812, one with Mexico and another wirh ourselves. The debts occasioned by either of the first three were cancelled before another war came. Have we just reason to expect that our present public debts will be paid before another war will be upon us? Our children, even without a war to provide for, cannot pay our and meet their own expenses.

We want ten thousand things, and get them, but do not pay, leaving our debts, whether contracted for necessaries or to gratify onr ambition, or follies, or wish for show and display or otherwise, for otherj to pay. Do honest, wise and good fathers thus treat their children? If not why should our government, federal, 6late or municipal, do We can turn no corner where debt does not stare us in the face. When we direct our attention to the federal and state governments, to counties, cities and town, we End mountains of debt to be paid by future taxation. Almost every town, village and county owes more or less, and so does nearly every city. The debts of some are enormous.

About every State owes its millions, and some many mill ions. The National Government, besides being security in hundreds of millions for the whole litter of National banks, owes of acknowledged debt almost two thoosand millions of do'Jars. Our statistical bureaus eould jiot be better employed than in col-lectiiFg a statement of all these debts and publishing it. as Azariah C. Flagg did.

nee when Slate Comptroller. Were these various debts aggregated It would extite our astonishment. IP all private indebtness could be ascertained and added it would occasion perfect amazement. All securities) puMie and private, are nothing but deb currency in our pockets or safes-, amounting to hundreds of million of dollars, is simply debt due frow the. Government, or ban-ks neither baring a dollar in gold or silver, or etiker thing of intrinsic valae wherewith tt make payment.

TIe only security that either has to protect the public is 6iroply other debts more promises to- pay, and nothing of intrinsic worth to cancel the numberless Bullions of paper promises. Instead, of investing in productive property and thereby adding to the business and productions of the country, our men of wealth buy up the debt's of the federal government, and thus escape taxation or of the States, counties, cities, and- towns, and enjoy the ineome of the dead, instead of live capital. These debtsr when aggregated, are supposed to be equal to one-fourth ef the asssessed value of, 1 tha entire real estate of the country. If we add the debt of private individuals the asnounr will be very essentially increased, if not doubled. It thus appears that our show of great prosperity and wealth is illusory and without solid foundation.

When- is this debt-contracting, system to end and debt-paying begin -When- are all these debts to be cancelled Instead of passing laws authorizing the new debts, our law makers should imperatively: forbid it. and. pass others requiring payment ot the old ones, with stringent penal provisions- whenever this duty shall be omitted 'i' A'.

Not only are the honored name and the cherished principles of the party destined to live, but despite mistakes and defeats it is sure to be again tri-umphant.

Notwithstanding the error of Passivism, the trickery of Conventions and the deinagoguery of self-styled leaders, the organization of the party will be. kept up and its harmony preserved until victory shall once more perch upon it' banners. The errors of the past can not now be remedied, butf they will be as future beacon lights to warn our Democratic pilots against the shoals and rocks which have -almost caused the destruction of the staunch old ship. The returns of our own State show that nearly four thousand Democratic voters remained away from the pells at the Presidential elootion. This number, added to those who voted, would have carried Oregon against Grant.

Does any one suppose that when onr former party lines aro drawn these four thousand voters will not be again found, as of yore, working in the Democratic party, for the preservat ion of its prin-! ciples Their instincts and teachings are all with the Democratic party, and there they, will always be iound. Let blatant Radicals prate about dead Democracy to their mouTa satiety that is their stock in trade; but let no tor a moment think ot abandoning the Democratic name or party for in adhering to them is onr political strength, our ultimate triumph and our country's salvation from tyranny, misrule and outrage. We have our Democratic Centra! Committees National, State and county whoso duty it will be to call Democratic Conventicms and work for the preservation of the party organization. We will make our nominal ions as in times past, within our own lines, from our own men, cordially welcoming within our organization, and sharing our honors with all ho choose to marshal under our. banners, no matter, what their past political afliiiations may have been.

With this purpose in view we buckle ton ourarmr for coming bat tles, and with this sign we shall con-! quer. Fees of Officers. Much adoj has been made by some of our Demo- cratic contemporaries, about the changes made in the fees of Clerks ami Sheriift, by the late Legislature. All who are conversant with the lac's in the case, know that the Democratic Legislature ot 1870 lowered the fees of Clerks and Sheriffs, in those counties known to be Republican, while in the Democratic counties no changes were made. Ilostburg Pantagruph.

Not to put too fine a point upon the matter, we will simply state that the above is not true. In our own county of Linn, which has for years been Democratic, the fees were cut down in 1870 just as they were in Multnomah and Marion counties. No distjetion was made in favor ef our county because we had Democratic officials, and the Pantograph man either wilfully or ignorantly perverted the facts when he made the declaration quoted above. Not only was no distinction made in favor of Democratic officials by the Legislature of 1870, but when the late lamented" Holiday Legislature had the increasing fee bill before it for consideration Seaator lioolt, a Democrat from this comity, asked that Linn be excepted from the operations of this bill, believing, as he stated, that the fe bill passed in 1870 was sufficiently liberal in its provisions. We believe that every Senator and Representative from-our county voted this year against their increase.

The statements we here make are matters of record, and we defy the Pantograph or any other Radical paper to successfully controvert them. DEMOCRATIC STRENGTH, ACKKOWU KDCED. The Portland Jiulletin of a recent date presents the following facts for the consideration of its over-sanguine andjubiliant Republican readears: "The returns of the State show a larger majority for the Grant, and Wilson Electors than had been looked for by the most sanguine; yet it would be Jolly to presume on this majority as a. basis, tor future political calculation and action. Examination of the returns shows that nearly three thousand Democrats who voted their party ticket in June refused to vote for Greeley.

Further examination shows that though the majority for the Grant and Wilson Electors is so unexpectedly large, yet their vote is considerably below: that thrown for the candidate for Congress in June last. To avoid misleading calculations for future elections, these facts must be taken into account. The strength of parties on a straight' issue is very nearly even in this Democrats who did not veto for Greeley are sure to vole in future elections, and there is certain to arise a vigorous, spirited and for midable opposition which will sweep jiiiu us suu i ue greater jjai ui mr elements heretofore comprising the Democratic party, and doubtless some of Republican' antecedents besides.
