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.

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?
I that Is, that Interments are made with
the feet pointing toward the path, no
matter In what compass direction they
may point."

MINING SCHOOLS' MONEY
DIFFERENCE OF OPINION AS TO
HOW IT SHALL BE DISTRIBUTED.
Two Oregon Institution "Want Pro
posed Award Passage ot Bill
This Congress Blocked.
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

but the bullets passed through, them
without effect, and that they then, seeing
that such warfare was impossible for
mortal men, fled In terror.
There were also among the Boxers a
certain number of men Duund by a pecu

opiums, tea, pork, crabs and onions,
though what was the peculiar virtue ot
this vow I have not yet been able to

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.

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.
As he handed It back to its owner he.
said: "I trust you will pardon, me,
madam. I assure you it was all a mis
take." The woman glared at him. "I don't
know about that," Bhe sniffed. "I don't
believe you are any better than you ought
to be."
