MANITOBA JOURNALISM.
Rut Portage Progress : m I still sup
port my reputation by publishing a
newspaper, and my family by sawiug
wood.
Tub emperor has accepted the resig
nation of Bismarck from the presi
dency of the cabinet and appointed hii
successor, Butticher, the minister of
state.
The Oakland Independent ssys the
Chicago, St. Paul,,, Minneapolis and
Omaha surveying corps have completed
the survey and estimates between Oak
land and Decatur, and arej now busy
surveying side tracks, etc., at that
yoiut. Meanwhile the survey party is
still in the Geld west of Scribner.
The Indianapolis Sentinel calls upon
the Democratic "cowards" to go to the
rear apparently forgetful of the fact
th it if this advice were followed, most
of ts le uli r3 wliou'd have to takebnek
ea!s. It is not good policy to cashier
a wliuie army at the beginning of an
engagement. Dubuque Tines.
Sin. IjLatnk is the almost unanimous
choice of the republicans of the Pacific
coa t for the Presidency. The San
Fi a j cisco Argonaut has been receiving
a large number of letters from the
States and Territories of the Pacific
slope giving President ial preferences.
In rejrard to the Presidency 2,675. let
ters were received, of which 2,517 ex
pressed a pre.'erence lor Blaine; and in
regard to the Vice-Presidency 2,572
letters were received, of which 2,120
were in fa or f Mr. Tmo'n.
The New lork Herald is publishing
in the older iu which they arc received
le ters itom the governors of states
and territori' s, in answer to ii;quiiies
f to personal and public preferences for
presidential candidates and opinions
upon political issues. So far the letters
from democratic governors indicate
considerable diversity and incongruity
of opinion with reference both to can
didates and the tariff. The governor of
Nevada is enthusiastically for Tilden,
and strangely enough, also for "revenue
reform while the governor of Aikan
saw is for McDonuld, and yet doesn't
care particularly what 'the platform
says as to the tariff; Governor Cameron
the readjuster governor of Virginia,
says emphatically that "a great major
ity of the voters of that state, without
reference to party affiliations, are in
favor of a tariff distinctively protective
and that no party can carry Virginia on
an anti-protection pi atf orm.
But a few days ago and democratic
papers were shouting out and bellow
ing to the country to look upon law
and order and Mississippi justice.
Down iu that blessed land of peace, the
other day, a grand jury indicted Wheel
er in Copiah couuty, for the murder of
Print Mathews; hence, democracy cried
lustily to stand aside and sec justice.
Now, mark the justice: A dozen wit
nesses iu the trial, swore that Wheeler
shot Mathews because he was a repub
lican ; swore that Wheeler iiad threat
ened to do it; had bragged about doicg
if, and that Mathews was shot in the
back in cold blood without a word of
altercatioa. The murderer went on
the stand, swore .that he shot Mathews
in Belf defense, and on that the jury
promptly acquitted him. So this is the
exhibition of justice we are called to
look upon by the democratic press.
When the senate committe went down
there this winter and secured the over
whelming evidence from the mouths of
living wituesses of the political mur
ders in that state, democracy saw that
it was necessary to make a showing or
a sacrifice of one of their patriots;
hince, Wheel -r was arrested for the'
mqrder of Mathews; otherwise, no ar
rest would have been thought of. But
mu-derer's iriends were on hand, and a
p ckt d and packed jury from among
the patriot?, very promptly cleared
Wtiet ler regardless of evidence or the
dslr; of the demccratic parly to make
a showing, and hence that party, has
the humiliation of seeing their own
show of honor turned iuto a farce such
as has cliaractaerized the trial of every
politic' murder iu the south for ten
years.

JEFF DAVIS ACAIN RAMPANT.
Jeff Davis has had another opportu
nity to air his treason and vent his ha
tred o' th" Uu'on. Ia view of the
forthcoming military encampment of
Slate troops at Rome, G a., the projec
tors of the affair invited him to be
present. Iu his letter expressing his
regrets that he cannot attend, Mr. Da
vis says:
"The inducements you offer are to me
most attractive. Tc se? the veterans
of the 'war for State sovereignty and
the sons of those who so nobly main
tained the cause of slavery and trea'
son w ould be to me a p'.cu&ure of
which it is with sincere regnt I find
myself deprived. Borne down by
overwhelmn ng numbers, SouihtrnJ re
sistance to wrong and usurpation
proved unavailing; bur, believing as I
did and do, that the cause was just
that we were but asserting the eternal
truths on which our fathers founded
American independence, and which
sooner or later I hope and believe the
American people will reassert I can
not admit that ours was a lost cause
slavery and the right of secession.
It mi.y not be I hope it never will be,
necessary to vindicate that cause by
force of arms; but, when the passions
of the day subside and reason has re
placed truth upon her throne, ours will
again be recognized as the union ? of
f i ee, sovereign, and independent States,
held together by a common interest
and the noble desire to transmit the
blessings what blessings ? to our pos
terity forever."
This is the old story which Davis
rehearses whenever the opportunity of
feis, bat this time it is told with more
of bitterness than usual and with an
expression of belief that the dojma of
State sovereignty and right of seces
siou are not lost causes, but that the
time will come when they will be re
covered, if not in a bloodless way then
by force of arms.' It. will 'also be ob
served that he reaffirms more emphat
ically than usual that the Rebellion
was a war against the Union and for
State sovereignty, grounded upon "the
eternal truths upon which our fathers
founded American independence" a
uniou meaning alliance or free and
slave," sovereign, and independent
