PIONEER'S RECOLLECTION.
Tbe following was written by D. J
Scbnebly. in early days editor of the
Oregon Spectator Oregon's first news
paper published at Oregon City. Mr,
Scbnebly, now advanced in years, pub-
lisbes a weekly paper at Ellensburg,
Wash.
The first newspaper established in
Oregon was tbe Oregon Spectator in
1845. The place of publication was
Oregon City. It was established by the
missionaries of Oregon, which embraced
all the territory from the British line,
the 49 parallel, and was bounded on the
east by the Rocky mountains and on the
south by the California line. The paper
was published for five years, and had in
that time four or five editions. Hon.
Robert Moore of Linn City purchased
the plant with its good will in the fall of
1840. He secured the services of Bev.
Wilson Blaine as editor for ono year,
At tbe close of Mr. Blaine's rear the
editor of this paper took charge of tbe
Spectator for Mr. Moore for a year, at
tbe close of which it was purchased by
the editor.
In those days the news of the world
was received twice a year; it was
brought by the way of Horn in sailing
vessels. There was no plagiarism, no
copying of editorials without proper
credit. The paper bad to be made up
wholly of local happenings and imagin
ings to the manor born
In the winter of 1850 a eemi-montbly
mail was established between San Fran
cisco and Portland. It was a great treat
to get a mail every two weeks, instead
of twice a year, as formerly. To -the
editor it was an especial accommodation
In the fall of 1850 the Western Star
was established at Milwaukie, by tbe
enterprising Lot Whitcomb. Tbe paper
was published there for nearly a year,
tbe work being done by John Waterman
and W. D. Uarter. Milwaukie was
nearly the size of Portland, which con
tained 3UO inhabitants. Portland was a
, small place then, but being at the head
of ship navigation it grew rapidly ; and
in tbe winter of 1850 the Oregonian was
established by some enterprising citi
zenB of the village Stephen Coffin,
John Couch, Lownsdale and others. T,
J. Dyer was editor. Henry L. Pittock
was not then a citizen of Oregon, but ar
rived in the early '50s, and soon after
became the devil in the office. Thus
tbe great paper of tbe Northwest had its
early beginning. But it enjoyed the
improved mail facilities almost, if not
quite, from the advent.
The Oregon Statesman was the next
iu tbe order of birth at Oregon City, and
it was conducted by Ashly Bush for
Samuel B. Thurston, the first delegate
elected by Oregon to represent the ter
ritory at wasnington. I he paper was
purchased by Thurston to aid in secur
ing his re-election as delegate. But
unfortunately ho died on his return,
somewhere between tbe Isthmus of
Panama and can Francisco. He was an
indefatigable worker and did Oregon
great service at Washington. He was
tbe author of tbe donation law and bad
a iilw mail route established between
Oregon and California, and had tbe first
land office established at Oregon City.
The first census in Oreeon was taken
by Joe Meek, marshal of the territory of
Oregon, whose deputy, Daniel O'Neill,
did the most of the work,
The deputy
did good service for the Spectator during
bis ride over the country. We were in
debted to our friend Dan for his Argus
eyed reports. Tbe marshal had a large
extent of country to ride over, and the
country was sparsely settled in 1851.
xn jnose eatly days the young men
when they went sparking had to carry
meir omnKeis wnn mem. rne prover
bial "spare bed" was not often found, in
tbe residence of the dulcinea's home.
The beau in going to and from his sweet
heart's abode looked very like a travel
ing man, but as it was tbe custom of
tbe country it was little thought of, and
the sweetheart had no difficulty in di
vining the vistor's thoughts.
Governor Lord is probably right in
the theory on which he basses his ap
pointments, that is that all the talent
and brains of the republican party that
are not in Multnomah county are con
centrated in Marion; but we respect
fully suggest that all the republican
votes do not come from these counties.
The governor wants to brighten np on
his geography, and he wants to remem
ber also that as far as Multnomah
county is concerned, Governor Lord is
dead politically. It was no use for him.
AN APOLOGY.
In commenting upon tbe report that
the government official in charge of the
work at the Cascades would recommend
that the bulkhead be not removed until
tbe walla of the canal were raised to the
height of tbe flood of 1894, we used Ian
guage concerning those officers which
was entirely out of place, and of which
we are heartily ashamed. Whatever
may, or may not be reported or done in
the premises, we realize the fact that
the officers of tbe United States engineer
department are highly educated and
conscientious gentlemen. We are also
coenizant of the fact that they have
life positions, and consequently . can
have no personal interest in pro
longing the work at the locks, since
upon its completion they would be aim
l Jliy glVGU VIiUCI cuuwvu vuM nvmu
probably be much more pleaeant.
We make this apology to them be
cause we were in tne wrong, ana it is
due both to them, and to ourself.
COMMISSIONS ARE LEGAL.
Attjrney-General Idleman has sub
mitted Lis opinion on the status of the
state commissions. He decidas tha.t the
railroad and other commissioners are
legally entitled to hold their offices until
the legislature meets again. We are
now, and have always been, opposed to
the system of commissions, and we have
been more outspoken against the rail
road commission than any or all the
others. At the same time, we had no
fault .to find with the composition of
that commission. It was the commis
sion, and not the members thereof, that
we oojectad to. As the commission is
to continue to exist, we congratulate the
members thereof on their good fortune,
It is not everyone in these degenerate
days that can have a sinecure and
special car at hand all the time; but tbe
board of railroad commissioners have
both
The dispatches recently stated that
Governor McKinley bad eaid that if tbe
republican party put a free silver plank
in its platform that he would not only
not accept the nomination for the presi
dency, but that he would leave his
party. It is not at all likely that Gov
ernor McKinley said anything of the
kind, or that he said anj thing at all on
the subject that he conld avoid. Gover
nor McKinley is a politician, and does
not take the trouble to express an
opinion that will only serve to make
him enemies. He is like Beed or Alli
son, or any other politician, and would
take the nomination for president no
matter what the platform contained
Mr. McKinley would like to climb into
the presidential chair, and he will not
be particular as to the kind of stepladder
offered him.
The train robbers are playing in hard
luck recently, and the business will soon
fall into decay if something is not done
to put the highwaymen on better foot
ing. The last two hold-ups have been
severely fatal.' In the one, out of six
bold, bad men who held up the train,
only three escaped, the others being
pumped full of lead and remaining on
the ground to await tbe action of the
coroner. In the other there were but
two robbers, and one of them was left
in tbe car, the other getting away with'
out any plunder. One-half of the two
parties were killed, and this puts the
calling among those classed as danger'
ous. - II tbe record is kept up tbe busi
ness will soon be abandoned.-
Tbe Cuban revolution at present in
progress may prove to be of immense
importance before it is finally termin
ated. Spain's affairs at home are seri
ously muddled ; so seriously as to inter
fere with her handling Cuban affairs, as
firmly as she should. Cuban revolu
tions are of such common occurrence as
to no longer cause much comment in
this country ; but with tbe present one
things are different, .for the reason that
it is quite possible that before many
months the United States flag may be
floating over tbe island. It is only a
question of time, and it would not prove
very 'startling if the matter should be
settled within the next year,
Manitoba is disturbed from center to
circumference over tbe school question
The whole fight is against a law passed
by the diminion government, under
which the school system of Manitoba
was interferred with. The system was
copied after ours, being non-sectarian,
but under tbe new law the money would
have to be divided and part of it given
to tbe Catholic schools. The feeling
runs high, and the Manitobans swear
they will rebel rather than submit.
joaqmn Miller comes back from Ha
waii with a tale of torture and inquisi
tion. Miller, it must be remembered, is
a poet, and consequently is allowed con
siderable license. His story is good un
til another is told, but we fancy that it
oversteps the bounds of its acknowl
edged license, and partakes of the char
acteristics of lousiness. Joaquin was
always an aggressive fellow in rhyme.
The wheat outlook brightens daily.
Beports from Argentine are not indica
tive of a good crop, while the yield in
tbe United States promises to be less
than usual. From present indications
wheat ought to and will bring 50 cents
per bushel this fall, unless the crop con
ditions elsewhere improve wonderfully,
Since Lexow started his famous exam
ination into municipal affairs in Kew
York, the cold moral wave that has
swept over the other cities of this coun
try is phenomenal. It struck Portland
awol hard; so hard that It broke and
went sluicing back to the whenceness
from which it came. It did no good ;
bu t then it did but little harm.
WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our regular correspondent.
Washington, March 29, 1895,
If Mr. Cleveland was hunting for
something to do to further offend the
silver democrats he certainly found it
when he decided that he would not carry
out the Wolcott amendment, providing
for the appointment of three commis
sioners by the president to act with those
named by congress as tepresentatives of
the United States at any international
monetary conference in ' which this gov
ernment might be invited to participate.
First the friends of Mr. Cleveland gave
it out that hii reason for refusing td ap
point the commissioners was that it was
specifically stated in the act authorizing
their appointment that they were only
to take part in a conference called to
consider an international ratio and the
free coinage of silver, and that no such
conference was contemplated by Ger
many, but later the excuse was amended
by saying that Mr. Cleveland had private
information to the effect that Germany
would not invite the holding of the con
ference, anyway. It is a fact very well
known in Washington that Mr. Cleve
land has resented from the first the
action of congress in naming two-thirds
of the commission, thus putting it out of
his power to make a majority of it anti
silver; therefore nobody was much sur
prised at bis refusal to complete it. If
he really knew that no conference would
be held be would have appointed the
commissioners and not have shown his
hand. It is contended by some that if a
conference is held the six commissioners
named by congress can participate re
gardless of Mr. Cleveland's wishes, as
$100,000 was appropriated by congress to
pay tbeir expenses, but that is doubtful.
If an invitation to take part in a mone
tary conference is extended to the United
States by Germany or any other foreign
country it is fair to assume that a com
mission signed! by tbe president would
be the only credentials which would be
recognized.
It is the general impression here that
Mr. Thurston, the Hawaiian minister,
scored at Secretary Gresham's expense
when he announced, in advance of any
information from bis government, his
immediate departure for Hawaii. Those
who are familiar with the Hawaiian gov
ernment appear to think it probable
that Mr. Thurston and Mr. Hatch, the
present Hawaiian minister of foreign
affairs, may exchange places. If they
do Mr. Thurston would not be human if
he did not take advantage of the oppor
tunities that would surely come to him
to worry Secretary Uresham. His first
step in that direction would most likely
be to ask for tbe recall of Minister
Willis.
Ex-Gov. Campbell, of Ohio, who has
been classed as a Cleveland man, and
who was certainly a Cleveland man at
the Chicago convention of '92, .seems to
have joined hands with the anti's. He
was in Washington this week hobnob
bing with Senators Gorman, Brice and
other anti-Cleveland men, and it is said
that these men are laying wires to make
Mr. Cleveland's hope of again becoming
tbe candidate of the democrats dissolve
into one of ex-Senator Ingalls' "irides
cent dreams."
There has probably never before been
i many changes announced or fore
shadowed in the short space of a single
week in the diplomatic corps at Wash
ington. Without counting the retire
ment of Minister Thurston there are the
following changes: The Spanish min
ister, who has been notified of tbe ap
pointment of his successor; the German
ambassador, who has received the same
information ; ditto the Argentine min
ister and the Brazilian minister has
been notified of his appointment to the
bench of the supreme court of Brazil,
which of course means a new Brazilian
minister here.
The application of Debs for a writ of
habeas corpus was this week argued be
fore the U. S. Supreme court, Attorney
General Olney taking the negative and
Mr. C. S. Darrow, of Chicago, tbe af
firmative. No decision is expected for
at least a month, owing to the number
of important cases upon which argu
ments have been made but no decisions
handed down. Somehow the idea seems
to be general that the application of
Debs will be denied.
Nothing new has this week been made
public concerning the various diplomatic
muddles, but there has been a com
munication received from Spain, and it
is said in administration circles to nave
been satisfactory as far as it went, but
from what can be learned it did not go
very far. The cabinet is said to be di
vided on the question of making the
eagle do a little screaming at England
on behalf of Nicaragua and Venezuela
and incidentally of the democratic party,
and the screaming has not been done,
although there is reason enough for it to
be done. , Cab. I
Mitchell Sates.
Today as been pleasant and warm, al
though clonds hung heavy and threat
ening. Tonight is a little cooler than
the day, anc still the indications are for
a storm. The past week has been very
cbangable and disagreeable, no - two
days bearing tbe same temperature,
Tbe range has been from cold to warm,
and storms ot every concievnble nature.
Last Tnesday night tbe mercury fell four
degrees lower than at any time last win
ter. There has been some rain, and a
great deal more is needed. Complaint
everywhere is that the ground is too
dry for plowing, and many places must
be left uncultivated unless there is
enough ' falling weather to wet tbe
ground. But. with all the dryness,
grass is looking well and there is plenty
to support stock.
Sheep are in excellent condition for
this time of the year. There has been a
sheep buyer in tbis county, bnt I have
not heard of any offers or any sales,
Cattle have been selling at $10 and $12
for yearlings and $14 and $15 for 2-year-olds.
B. E. Misner is getting lumber on tbe
ground to build a large store in lower
town, also a dwelling.
Sam Brennen is building a small
dwelling in lower town.
Married March 13th, John Saigfort
and Miss Lena Campbell. Many happy
wishes go to them.
E. E. Allen has gone to John Day,
and will bring his two eldest daughters
home. They have been at that place
going to school this winter. '

The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least one
dreaded disease that science has been
able to cure in all its stages, and that is
Catarrh. Hall's Cure is the only posi
tive cure known to the medical frater
nity. Catarrh being a constitutional
disease, requires a constitutional treat
ment. Hall's Catarrh Cure is taken in
ternally, acting directly upon the blood
and mucous surfaces of tbe system,
thereby destroying the foundation of the
disease, and giving the patient strength
by building up the constitution and as
sisting nature in doing its work. The
