THE MORNING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, JANUARY 14, 1901. 5 WHY WORSHIP JACKSON?! BE3XOCRA.TS ARE TJEIFXTXG AW EZT FANSIOXIST. He Opposed Every Measure tor WHICH the Party Under Brynn'a Leadership Xott Stands. ALBANT, Or., Jan. 8. (To the Editor.) Democracy . as now constituted cannot etrictly claim to be following In the foot stops ot Jackson, although holding on this day throughout the Union love feasts In his honor. Any unbiased student who will read the debates !n Congress and the state papers of Jefferson and Jackson -will be compelled to conclude that the present Republican 'party has shifted to, and Is the only party actually following today tho Ideas of Jefferson and Jackson, at least, so far -as the living topics of sound money, expansion and the tariff arc con cerned. Jefferson In his day went by the party name, of Republican, and no party can any better lay claim to him than the modern Republican party. Jefferson op posed slavery, was a believer In the pro tective tariff, of sound money and of ex pansion. The Democratic party In its early history was noted as a protective tariff, sound money and expansion party, but today the two great parties have changed positions. In IE32, for the first time, all Presiden tial candidates were nominated by Na tional conventions. The platform of the Democratic convention, adopted at "Wash ington City, May 11, 1882, upon which An drew Jackson was elected President, con tained only three resolutions, the first declaring-in favor of a protective tariff for American Industry: the second. In favor of internal Improvements being carried on by the National Government. On February 25, 1823, the bill to Induce citizens of the United States to make set tlement In what was then known as Ore gon Territory was taken up for considera tion in the Senate of the United States. With reference to the dangers of an un due extension of our country, Mr. Bar bour, in support of the bill, said: "Our onward march to the country of the set ting sun is irresistible. I will not disguise that I look with the deepest anxiety on this vast extension of our empire, and to Its possible effects on our political Insti tutions, but whatever they may be, how ever, our forefathers decided the experi ment." Mr. Dickenson, in opposition to the "bill, said: "As yet, we have extended our laws to territories only that were to become states of the Union. Oregon can never become one of the United States. Neither as a colony nor as a state could the Ore gon country be of any substantial benefit to the Union." This is Interesting read ing to a citizen of the State of Oregon, but just as Mr. Dickerson then argued concerning the Oregon country, so do men of his Ideas argue concerning our newly acquired Philippine territory. The proba bilities are that 50 years from now, when American capital and enterprise shall have opened up the agricultural, mining, lumbering and other commercial Interests of the Philippines, the only wonder will be that any statesman of our Republic ever objected to our retaining them as territories. Our unwritten Constitution will bo largely found In the decisions of our Supreme Court and Administrative and Congressional policies, and measures which by force of precedent have become a part of our National polity. Concerning the questions of the Juris diction of the United States and the right of Congress to provide a colonial system of government, those points and princi ples were early debated and decided. It scorns to me. In tho affirmative, notably In the Government's dealing, through tho President and Congress, with the Indian nations. John Adams, concerning tho Constitutionality of the purchase and an nexation of the Louisiana territory," said: "Tho power of annexing IOUlslana Terri tory to the Union has not been delegated to Congress by the Constitution, and an amendment to the Constitution is neces sary to render valid the unconstitutional act of President Jefferson in the pur chase by him of Louisiana from France. I have no doubt of the power of the Sen ate and tho President to make the treat ies, but the power of annexing the inhab itants of Louisiana to the Union, of con ferring upon them In a mass all the rights and requiring of them all the duties of citizens of tho United States, has not been delegated to congress, and cannot be without the consent of the people of Louisiana themselves. I thought," says he, "that it required an amendment to tho Constitution and a vote of the peo ple of Louisiana, and I offered such reso lutions to the Senate, but both these measures were rejected. I opposed the annexation, but acquiesced in it after It received tho sanction of all the organ ized authority of the Union and the tacit acquiescence of tho people of the United States and of Louisiana, since which time I have considered the question Irrevoc ably settled." Concerning the rights of the natives or aborigines to the land in unsettled por tions of the United States, our National Government early took the position that tho Indians' right to the soil was that of mere occupancy only. The Supreme Court of the United States, following tho views of President Jackson and his party, decided that the Indians' title to real property amounted to that of occupancy only, and tfo&t the Indians not being by education or habits qualified to become full-fledged citizens, wore to be considered subjects or wards only until capablo of being clothed with citizenship. The great debates over the removal of the Cherokces of Georgia, who had be como partly civilized, many of thorn hav ing adopted civilized dress, thousands of them having engaged successfully In farming and stockralsing, and of their eloquent pleas In behalf of their rights to the lands, and in opposition to removal from their homes to reservations west of the Mississippi, Is familiar history to the student of the history of the United 6tates. Tet President Jackson and his administration urged their removal, and asserted that he was not bound by pre vious treaties of our Government with the Indians to protect them In their terri tory In Georgia. Mr. Frellnghuysen, In behalf of the In dians, maintained tho political and civil rights of the Indians on the ground of Immemorial possession, as the original tenants of the soil, a title, he said, su perior to that of the British crown, from whom we had obtained our right by treaty. He maintained that tho Chero ksos held by better title than either Georgia or the Union. That we had la all our Intercourse with ttie Cherokces recognized their title. Tve had pur chased land from them and made treaties with them, and had regarded them as a nation, and had respected their form of government. As early as 17C3 Great Brit ain, by proclamation, had recognized their right to the "undisturbed possession of such territory as had not been ceded by purchase, and enjoined all persons who toad willfully or inadvertently settled on such lands to remove therefrom." In lTHi, on the evo of war, we had ap proached them as independent nations having power to form alliances with or against us. "Their sovereignty," said Frelinghuysan, "had never been ques tioned by the illustrious Statesman of that period. That in 17S3 Congress treated with them as foreign and Independent nations, and instead of 'conquest" and the 'rights of war.' now (1830) so conven ient to set up. Congress accorded to these Indians the character of foreign nations, adopting means to establish boundary lines botween. our citizens and their vil lages and hunting grounds. In 17S5, by treaty, a citizen of the United States re- mowing six months on the Indian lands forfeited the protection of our govern- rnent, and might be punished by the In dians. Now such treaty -was to be con sidered tho 'supreme lair of tho land,' and here we have the President (Jackson) urging a measure that would nullify such treaty, and virtually break the solemn pledges of our government with the In dians." One of the most eloquent of the Chero kees In the Cherokee Phoenix. In Its Issue of September 11, 1530. staled: "People qf America, where shall we look? Republi cans (the early name ot the present so called Democratic party), we appeal to you. In times past your compassion yearned over our moral desolation and the misery which was spreading among us through the failure of game, our an cient resource. The cry of our wretched noss reached your hearts. You supplied us with the implements of husbandry and domestic Industry, which enabled us to provide food and clothing. You sent us Instruction In letters and the true relig ion which has chased away much of our mental and moral darkness. Your wise President Jefferson took much pains to Instruct us. and recommended your Na tional and State Governments as models for our imitation. His letter was read In our towns, and we received It as the counsel of a friend. We have become successful farmers. It has been said wc are willing to go West. It Is not so. We love our homes; we love our families; we love to dwell near our fathers graves; -we love to think that this land Is our great Creator's gift to us, and that our offspring will succeed us In our inheri tance. This land Is our last refuge, and It is our own. Our .great Father Wash ington, In a speech to our brothers, the Seneca Indians, In 1790. said: 'In future you cannot be defrauded of your lands. The United States must be present when you sell, and will be your security that you shall not be defrauded In the bargain you may elect to make.' Yet they were moved by President Jackson as mere oc cupants of the soil." Such, In brief, Is" history. Our Constitution has grown and Is still growing by decisions of our Su preme Court, custom and precedent. I, as well as every other lawyer, could point out specific Instances of It, but It Is a historical truth, and requires no law yer's brief to prove it. The weak and Inferior nations give way, one by one. to the onward maroh of a superior and mightier force. And so It will 'ever be. Is It not right for every true Amerlcan,yea,the duty of every loyal citizen, to uphold the President and his Administration In the enforcement of law and order, the establishment of the sohoolhduse. and liberty under the flag. In our new possessions, that they too may become clothed with the Industry and civilized comforts of Christian homes? Where once roamed the Indians now exist the happy homes of the Anglo-Saxon Christian life. So where dwell now the half-civilized pagan tribes of our Ori ental isles will ere long dwell and be felt for the world's good, the progressive American, the public school, and the gos. pel of Christ. May we not hope that Canada may yet be an Integral part of our beneficent Republic? That Cuba may be added to our territory and her people receive the benefit of our laws and lib erties. Is the wish of yours truly. GEORGE W. WRIGHT. PROPER THING IX WOMEN'S FOOT WEAR. Ridinjr Legffins. The Gravcdigrser Lost HIa Job. New York Times. "When I was a boy," said the veteran, as he puffed on his strong: cigar after dinner, "I remember there was an awful soandal In our town a little country place because a temporary gravedlgger, "who had been hired to do the work when the regular hand was 111, burled a man with his feet to the west. Ours was a religious as well as a superstitious town. Among the older people there was a well-grounded belief that a person must be Interred with his feet to the East, so that when Gabriel's trumpet should sound for the final awakening the dead should be able to face the angel on arising. This new gravedlgger couldn't have known the tra dition, or he would not have flown In the face of superstition and buried his victim with his feet to the west The thing made such a scandal that they actually disinterred the body and turned the coffin around so that tho dead man Hhould rest In the right position. Of course, the new gravedlgger lost his job. I don't know that I havo thought of the incident for a long time, until I had to go to Woodlawn cemetery a short tlmo ago to attend the burial of a friend. Then for tho first time It dawned upon me that there had been a change in the suporstltlon, and that it had probably been wholly lost to sight, as have so many of tho old ones. I noticed that the direction In which bodies arc buried now seems to bo settled by the direction of i the Dath In front of the nlat von own?

WASHINGTON, Jan. 9. There seems to be a great difference of opinion as to what shall be done with the money which It Is proposed to be appropriated by the bill creating a school of mines and min ing in the several states. While It Is a practical certainty that this bill cannot pass at the present session, it Is yet a subject that Is being extensively agitated throughout the Western Stites, and a great deal of pressure is being brought to bear to secure Its enactment into law. The institutions of Oregon, particularly the State University and the Agricul tural College, are deeply concerned In the bill, and are exerting considerable Influence to secure its early considers tion. . As the bill now stands It provides that whatever appropriation Is allowed the several states shall go to the Agricul tural Colleges of those states and terri tories. This particular portion of the bill will In all probability be altered be fore the bill Is Anally enacted, for In many of the states the Agricultural Col lege Is a seperate Institution from the State University, and there is a strong sentiment In favor of having the school of mines allowance go to the State Uni versity when there are two separate in stitutions. It Is understood that such a difference of opinion exists; in Oregon, and both the State University and the State Agricultural College are contending for the appropriation when made. There are strong arguments in favor of allowing the appropriation to go to the State University In the case of Oregon, for that Institution has had some form of mining instruction for over 20 years, and has had an organized school of mines since 1S94. On the contrary, the Agri cultural College only established its school of mines durlntr the past Summer, an ticipating the passago of the pending bill. This Institution Is making a stiff fight to have the bill held In its present shape, so that the school of mines funds may go there Instead of to some other institution. There Is one other feature of the bill which has excited some little comment. In Oregon as well as outside, which 13 to the effect that the provision that where a separate school of mines has been established In anv state by the Leg islature, the appropriation shall go to such Independent school. It Is hoped by the friends of the various State Uni versities to have this provision amended and enlarged so as to provide not only for such independent Institution, but to provide further that the appropriation, in case there is no Independent school of of mines In a state, shall go to a school or department of mining which shall have been established by the proper au thorities in connection with the State Universities thereof. As stated before, with the opposition of the committee on rules, and of the Speaker of the House dead set against this bill. It will be utterly Impossible to secure Its passage at the present session, but it Is now the understanding that when the bill is again reported to tne com mittee on mines and mining, that a strong effort will be made to have the Agricultural College provision amended so that the funds carried by the bill may. where deemed advisable, be diverted to the State Universities or individual schools of mines. A TROLLEY FERRY. Pnsscngrcrs, Horses and Carts "Will Cross the Tyne In Mid-Air. London Leader. For many years the towns of North and South Shields have been dependent for intercommunication on a system of ferryboats, there being no bridge across the Tyne lower than Newcastle, which Is 15 miles up stream. This crying griev ance is now to be remedied by means of a wonderful bridge, provided Parliament grants the necessary powers to the engi neers who have undertaken the construc tion The honor of the doflgn cf what is appropriately named the Ferry bridge be longs to a French engineer, M. Arnodln. The proposed Tyne bridge has to cross 9S0 feet of river, between banks 70 feet above the water level; It has also to allow free passage for vessels whose mast heads sometimes attain an altitude of 191 feet. Briefly described, the bridge will be erected upon two masonry piers built in the bed of the river, with a clear water way between them of 833 feet. Upon the masonry piers will be erected two ver tical steel lattice towerB on each side of the river and about 250 feet In height. Between these towers will be a light horizontal lattice girder supported at a height of 210 feet above high-water level by parabolic cables of steel wire; these cables being carried over expansion frames on the tops of the two lower tow ers and anchored Inland. Fixed girder bridges -will span the space between the two towers and the tops of the banks. Upon the horizontal girder, between the towers, a trolley with some 40 wheels will be run from side to side by electric mo tors fixed thereon, while from the trol ley will be suspended by steel cables, at the level of the approach roads, a large platform with accommodation for tram cars, horses and carts, and 200 to 300 passengers- The maximum load for the plat form will be about 100 tons. All the pieces in the supporting arrangement will be doubled, so that should any of them break tho car can still ply forward and back wards while it is being repaired. The time occupied In transit will ba 1 min utes, thus allowing a start from either end every five or six minutes. The new ferry bridge Is practically a tramwa'y over the Tyne at sufficient height to clear the shipping, with a car operating at the roadway level, and the loss of power and time expended In rais ing and lowering the car and passengers to the necessary height Is thus ingeni ously avoided. Tt Is estimated that the bridge will cost $750,000. and. as the antiquated ferry sys tem now working between the two -towns carries annually over 5.000.000 passengers, It will be understood that a small toll will assure the financial success of the undertaking. New Facts About the Boxem. Rev. Roland Allen In The Cornhlll. The Boxers- not only believed that they were themselves possessed by the spirits of heroes, they also believed that they were supported by a force of "spiritual or divine soldiers." These soldiers were said to number 4S0.0&0. and appeared in the form of unmarried boys, many being still children. These children accompanied or preceded the advance of the main body of fighting men, and great reliance wa placed on thelf aid. their presence being the presage of victory. Thus just before the entrance of the first large body of armed Boxers Into Fekin, a "body of 40 such children marched through the city, and were everywhere received with 'marks of respect, reverence and fear. The Chris tians ran In end reported this to me as a certain sign that trouble was hard' at hand. After the burning of Feng Tal Sta tion, before the imperial troops sided de fiantly with the Boxers, and were still sent out to prevent their raids, a small party of foreigners who escaped by the last train from Pekln fell In at An Ting Station with a large body of native troops, who had fled thither before the Boxer at tack. They told the foreigners that the Downing, Hopkins & Co. WHEAT AND STOCK BROKERS Room 4, Ground Floor . .

There were also among the Boxers a certain number of men Duund by a pecu liar vow to abstain from wine, tobacco, opiums, tea, pork, crabs and onions, though what was the peculiar virtue ot this vow I have not yet been able to learn.

HERMANN FOR 1905 FAIR STRONGLY FAVORS PROPOSED PORTLAND EXPOSITION. Says It Wonld Mean Much to Up building of State His Idea of a Fair. Hermann Is using his Influence with Sen ators and Representatives who call at his office, to further the interests of such an exposition. He takes the position, and rightly, that the Oregon delegation .did much for the promoters of the Louisiana Purchase exposition, to be held in St. Louis, and thinks that the men of the Mississippi "Valley, and to the "West, who were deeply Interested in that fair, can not do more thin reciprocate by lend ing their support to the Portland fair, for, while Oregon is not a part of the Louisiana purchase. It He3 directly to tho westward, and has been closely allied with the purchase. Commissioner Hermann says that such an exposition would mean much to the upbuilding of Portland and of the en tire state, and would bring to that coun try live business men who are at pres ent unaware of the opportunities opened to them in the great Northwest. He has no fear whatever but what the country at large will take an active Interest in the exposition, once It gets a good start, particularly as It Is the first of Itsi kind to be held on the Pacific Coast, It is not his idea to attempt to secure such an extensive affair as is to ba held at St. Louis In 1903, but to have the Govern ment erect a building and maintain an exhibit which will be commensurate with the occasion, and be a credit all around. In other words, ho thinks an exposition on the order and scale of those at Omaha, Atlanta and Buffalo is about what Port land wants and what should be within the reach of her delegation in Congress to secure, provided the people of Port land take the initiative and give ample assurance that they intend to take up the fair proposition and moke it go. It will not be possible to secure an appro priation for the Government exhibit un til the plans for the exposition hive been drawn and approved, and ample assur ance hns been given that the scheme is tp be pushed to a successful conclusion. This done, the Commissioner anticipates no serious obstruction at the "Washing ton end. Notes of Oregon Mines. John Winnlngham has leased the Dugan mine in Jackson County. James Lyttle has sold his copper claim In Waldo district for S15.C00. If is fald that Pence Bros, have sold their" lnterost In the Sunset quartz mine in Jackson County. The additional five stamps for the Ash land mine mill will be ready for operation in about two weeks. ; Operations at the Sterling mine. In Southern Oregon, have suspended on ac count of cold weather. William Botwick and Ed Smith have leased the Vlckroy hydraulic mine in Jackson County, and are operating it. Caton & Sons are piping with a good head of water at their mine at the Junc tion of Forest and Poorman's Creeks, Jackson County. I. Humason. of Gold Hill, has bargained for a large body of land in Blackwell dis trict, He is developing a quartz ledge, which is showing up well. Twenty tons of ore from the Bill Nye Mining Company' ledge. In Rail's CreeK district, have been crushed In Humason & Cheney's mill, with good results. M. W. Simpson thinks he has discov ered a gold mine at Rocky Bluff, 2V4 miles eouth of Elk City. Two claims have al ready been taken and others will follow soon. John Hall, who is developing a quartz mine In Grave Creek district, has struck a vein of decomposed quartz which is full of gold. He has already pounded out sev eral hundred dollars. J. A. Ulsh, of Camp Carson, who has been operating In the old Camp Carson placer mines, on Grand Ronde River, re ports the yield from those mines as sat isfactory to all concerned. Mr. Banta, representing F. H. Osgood, of Seattle, who bought the Bybee mines, in Josephine County, has the property In Allen Gulch district almost ready for op eration. Several thousand dollars have been spent In getting it into shape. Mr. Thomas, of Mineral City, reports that operations at the smelter were closed down because the furnace would not burn. A second attempt 'was made Monday, and proved a failure. If further attempts are unsuccessful, changes will be made". The Black Butte quicksilver mine, 6 miles south of Cottage Grove, closed down several daye ago for the purpose of mak ing changes and improvements. An addi tional string of condensers will be built, and the capacity of the furnace will bo increased from 40 to 50 tons per day. The company is planning a second and new furnace with a capacity of ICO tons per day. 0 Jumped on Joe "Wheeler. It was raining the other day, says the Washington correspondent of the New Tork World. An angular woman, wear ing a mackintosh, sitting next to General Joe Wheeler in a street-car, rose to get off at Fourteenth and F streets. Gen eral Wheeler noticed an umbrella leaning against the car seat. He grabbed the umbrella, ran after the woman, caught her at the door, and said: "Pardon me, madam, but you left your umbrella." The woman looked puzzled, but took the umbrella. General Wheeler resumed his seat. Then a woman oh the other side of him gave a little scream and said: "Why, you nasty little man, you gave that wom an my umbrella." Then she appealed to the conductor. General Wheeler apologized, but the woman said: "Now, you Just get right off the car and zet it for me, or I'll no tify the police." Meekly the veteran of three wars tum bled off into the rain and ran after the woman with the mackintosh. He made a hurried explanation, got the umbrella and nished back to- the waiting car.
