About The state rights democrat. (Albany, Or.) 1865-1900 | View Entire Issue (April 24, 1885)
Ik tmtai FRIDAY APRIL 24, 1886 trait or office A Washington special to the Phila delphia Timet says there are more ap plications by Repoalicaus foi retention in the offices which thej now hold than theie are from Democrats for these pla ces. These Republicans give all kinds of reasons why they should be retained. Some invoke the Tenure of Office law, some the Civil Service law, others, (and not a few of theui, ) declare their pur pose to act with the Democratic party hereafter, and many other expedients are resorted to in order to keep them elves in office. AH f - which shows that these Republican office folders, after having been feiKon government pap for twenty-fire.years. hungrier than Democran,-wine.n;tntoths of whom never hell any federVt position. Our readers have a distinct recoU0n how many of these fcdeial officojfjlders declared their purpose before the elec tion to resign at once in ease of the election of Cleveland. Oh,' no, they would not hold office under Cleveland. They had too high a sense of honor to remain the public servants of a people who had expressly condemned the par ty that had placed them there. They had too much manly independence to be dependent upon a political party for whom they had neither political nor moral sympathy. But what a spectacle does the country now behold ; Thou sands of these self-8ame,virtoous lovers of government pap have been suddenly transformed into political mendiemts and beggars hanging around the door steps of Democrats in power begging alms as it were, and bending the sup pliant knee that thrift msy follow fawn ing. Such is a faithful exemplification of the political virtue of those Republi can officials who constitute the govern ing power in the organization of that party. Talk of the spoils of office be ing the leading tenet in the Democratic faith ! No party nor set of men was ever more thoroughly impregnated with this idea, nor more universally indoc trinated n the principle that "to the victor belong the spoils," than are the leader and managers of the Republican partywThe election of Cleveland has served to tear off the mask by which their true purposes have been disguised and they now stand out before the pub lic ia their true light. An exchange whose editor hides his radical republicanism behind the name "independent" boasts that ft is a matfer of which republicans may well feel proud that under the new democratic administration therehaa bean a thorough sifting and no frauds have been found and not a cent of government funds but what has been ialthfolly accounted for. we sup pose this editor wrote that item jast after reading an account of Cleve land's uncermoniously bouncing the Rome, New York, Postmaster because he was $700 short in his accounts. No, the sifting has not been complet ed, but we confidently believe that when the committee now investigat ing the Treasury department finishes its work and reports the country will be shocked at so much crookedness. As we have often remarked before in these columns, if the election of a demo cratic president is to result in nothing more than a mere change of officers, then it would have been better for democrats that Cleveland should have been defeated Bat we now see that there was great significance in Cleve land's election. Real civil service re form will be carried out in good faith and not in that hypocritical way which it was under Grant, Hayes and Artbar. Economy, for economy's sake, will be insisted upon in all departments of gov ernment. The people did well in elect ing Cleveland. Prayer meetings were held in Trenton New Jersey, just before the city elect ion, in behalf of the republican candi date for Mayor. The prayers were answered in the election of the demo cratic candidate by a surprisingly large vote. It is a pity that so many fools and religions cranks are permitted to control the proceedings of religons con gregations. One of these fools will do more to retard the growth and spread of religion in an hour than Bob Inger soll can do in a year. Another "rascal" has come to grief, and must be kicked out. Cooke, Post master at Unionville, Conn., has been found shoit to the extent of about $4000 and has been arrested. His peculations has been going on for over a year, but they were not discovered until a Democratic president took the reins, when the thief was soon discov ered. Turn 'em out. There is talk of consolidating the Post Republican and Critic, all Wash ington newspapers, into one great, booming democratic daily. Tbere is no longer a necessity for a republican paper in Washington or anywhere else, and very likely the talk may amount to something. Barring accidents, this country will ba in democratic hands for the next 50 years or more. Editor Oregonian, Dear Sir: As a matter of truth, do you not en joy as much personal happiness now as in the dsjs of the republic, and before you became a citizen of the confederacy? UEHT4TIO. It does seem that this democratic administration takes a kind of jooose delight in proving that the campaign thunder used by republicans last fall to defeat Cleveland was a false thunder. It will be remembered that the repub lican stump speakers and editors held up their hands in "fear and trembling,' and "mourned with a gieat and very ore lamentation" over the, (to them,) certainty that the democrats would pay off the rebel debt, tension rebil soldiers, re-enslave the colored people, deprive federal soldiers of their pensions, and do many otter thiuga which would tend to ruin the country if Cleveland should be elected. Thee charges were incess antly rung in the ears of voters all over the country in order to frighten and in timidate them iuto the support of Blaine, and it is believed that one hun dred thousand timid tepubticaas who had crown heartily sick of republican isrule and extravagance, were, by these means held to the support of Blaine, who under ordinary influences would have supported Cleveland. But despite the fear of turning over the i i g ivemment to tne conieuerate ueino- orats," good sense prevailed to that . at a . extent that Cleveland was eiecteu. And, now, then, what effort has been made to pay off the rebel debt? Who has proposed to pension rebel soldiers? What single colored person in all the land has been remanded to his former condition of slavery? Or, what person in all the Southland has been found, who would if he could, or could if he would, reduce any colored person to a condition of slavery. Not one any where. These timid republicans now rejoice that Cleveland is elected, for it is now well understood that the rights of colored people will be as secure, if not more secure, than they were under republican rule. As an evidence of the manner in which the present ad ministration will treat the colored peo ple, we have only to refer to a dispatch sent out a few days ago in which it was said ''that the policy of the ad minis t ra tio regarding appointments to offices in southern states now held by colored republicans will he not be to substitute white men for colored, but to re place incompetent or dishonest colored republicans with colored democrats who are worthy and capable. In accordance it is said, with this policy the post oiester general has just appointed ex Representative Tom Hamilton.of Beau fort, route agent from Beaufort to Jacksonboro, South Carolina. Hamil ton was the leader of a small band of colored men who supported ".be Hamp ton government in Soutb Carolina in 1876. So our readers will see that if repub licans had to make their campaign over they would be left entirely destitute of any campaign issue upon which to make it. Take from the them bloody shirt issue and they would be as poor as Job's turkey. Miss Cleveland sets at rent the report that she is a republican by asserting that she approves her brother's principles, and quite superfluously adding. ''He has very strong principles," as several people have discoerd. It is now thought that Judge Bronaugh of California, formerly of Portland, will receive the appointment of U. S. district attorney for Oregon. He comes from Attorney-General Gar land's State, Arkansas. Harrisburg. April 22nd, 1885. Rev. McCallister wan in town last week. Mr. Jamas McCoy and wife, relatives of Mrs. Rampy, are in town. Miss Whitney, who is teaching at the Pike school bouse, spent Saturday and Sunday with friends here.

There is to be a May day pienic near the Harrisburg bridge, under the aus pices of the boys Brass Band. A large crowd and a pleasant time is expected. Mrs. Mrqaam, of Junction, was the guest of Mrs. McClain, a few days last week. Mat Funk and wiie returned yester day from a visit to Mrs. Funk's rela tives, during which time Mat's health does not appear to have improved. Our eld townsman, S. .8. Train,stop ped off a few hours with us on Monday. Howard BramwetU has accepted a position as clerk with C. F. Wright,our grocery man, Damon Smith's new sign is very neat, and will, no doubt, call in many a customer. The body of Frank Rampy has not yet been found. A diligent search has been kept up, and yesterday giant powd er was fully and judiciously used in blasting the river from the R. R. bridge down, hut without effect. Morris Island. As I have been one Week behind I will try and be up with the other re porters hereafter. Every body around here is happy, all lone seeding, neatly all through gardening, and the mucu wished tor rain u here. If "Gardez" will incloae a two cent postage stamp and address Mrs, Taylor Probst, Albany, Oregon, as others did, that saw my statement in the Democrat of April 10th in regard to fine poultry, he or she will get al) the information he desires, but if "Gardez" cannot toll an "aa" from a news item he cannot tell a Bantam from a Bramab.

Our postmaster A. Newell went over to the Nestucla to spend a few days taking his wife with him. The office Is In charge of W. O. Peterson his accomplished deputy. Two men came in from Ochooo on Sunday and said they had met James and JoEiklns at the Summit. There was then 24 feet of new snow and still snowing. The snow of the win ter was still to the depth of 0 feet, lira. Sherer was burled here ou Monday. She was married less than a year ago and her husband Is left witn a little babe 6 weeks old to mourn their early loss. She was the daughter F. C, Hansard. Business is very dull, a little more so than A. has been. Mr. and Mrs. Stringer gave a party Tuesday evening In honor of their daughter Mrs. Hit lye way. Miss Sarah Jones has been on a visit to the country, much to the delight of her many friends. Mr. Livermore of W. T. Is here seeing what the prospect Is for estab lishing a paper. While the citizens would be much gratified to have such an enterprise, they cannot subscribe as liberally as they would wish be cause money is too acarce. There was a party of 12 went up to the Sodaville riuk ut other evening. 1 Wo understand l hey had a pleasant time. The conversation of some of thorn was probably more gratifying to themselves than elevating. Rev. Bowersox of Salem was in town Thursday on his way home from Sweet Home where he has boon on a ininisteral vhit. Mrs. L. Put man of Albany, spent Thursday with Mrs. F. M. Miller. Mrs. R. McCally and daughter Jessie returned from Etat Portland Saturday. The recent frosts have nipped the early vegetable, where they were not covered. There h some talk of having a May party with the May pole dance, May queen etc. A Slipup- April 20ib, 1885. As it appears that you have no cor respondent from this locality, I thought a few items would be acceptable and in order. As. Mr. Chicken Bristle was at the close of the Fern Ridge school ami, I understood, hs was to give a sketch of the picnic, I waited and watched for last week's issue, and aa I thought he did not give it hardly juatioe, I thought I would give a short sketch. At half past ten o'clock the citizens of Fern Ridge began to assemble, some in wagona and some on foot, bringing pails, basket, tubs and dry goods box es, filled to the brim. Exercises began with reading by classes, then the pri mary mental aritbme.ic class acquitted themselves very nicely, making no mis takes and answering the questions aaked them by their teacher. Neat, reading bT Prof. J. B. Wirt, "The Fount of Youth," followed by an address of wel come by Miss Ollie Layton. Adjourn ment for dinner, and such a dtnner,pen bath not the power to describe, was displaced before our eyes on a table, 32 leet long by 3 feet wide. There mountains of cake, beapea of cookies, stacks of pies of every kind, fried ham, roast chicken, baked bam, plenty of good biscuits and butter, end other things too numerous to mention, and after 101 persons ate all they wanted and were filled, there was enough left for supper. dinner OTer we baJ a pleasant tima chatting with one another and were cal led to order by the sound of the school bell, Pirst, we were treated with a piece of music by the string band. In troduction by Miss Alice Nave, follow ed by numerous recitations, of which I will name a few. "The two roads," by Miss Lizzie Crockett; "The old man in the stylish church," by Miss Mary Boyd ; "Somebody's darlioir," by Miss Spicy Sooth ; "The model wife, "by the frof. ; "Wreck of the Hesnerus." bv Miss Mary Wirt ; "The little bird's Dgt bv Anna Brown. In fact we were held spell bound for nearly three hours with recitations, which showed the ability of both pupi!s and teacher. An able address was deliver ed by Prof. Ribeliu ou the care and education of our youth by their parents, also a few remarks by Mr. Fellows. The afternoon was enlivened bv melo dious strains of music rendered bv Messrs. J. P. Tucker and Wm. Savage. School closed and all dispersed feeiiue ell paid for the day spent. Prof. Wirt removed immediately after the picnic to Happy Home, where, I understand, he has a fine school, sev eral attending from adjoining districts. I understand school is progressing finely in the upper Hamilton Creek district, under the skillful management of Miss Lydia Charlton. As she is a No. 1 teacher, we think she will give satisfaction to all her patrons. Also her sister, Miss Frances Charlton, is teaching in the George McKinney dis trict and we understand she has a very interesting school. This is her second term in that district, which speaks well for her as a teacher. All those who love soda water can quench their thirst at Waterloo spring, as the river is very low. Mr. Al. Kinder, R. Lindley and J as. Bellinger have gone to Douglas county. Since those fine showers crops are looking fine and the farmers wear a smiling countenance. Hawkbye. Sweet Home. April 18, 1885. We will again attempt to give a few of the happenings of Sweet Home and vicinity since our last : In the first place, we desire to make correction in our last about Rev. Joslin refusing to sell the baby wagon. The gentleman says he never refused to sell said wagon, hence we cheerfully make the correction. But re understand that no sooner than the faot was made public that the wagon was not for rale that our parson denied the charge a once, and we understand now that the aforesaid wagon has been sold, assigned set over, but not yet transferred, which faot ought to show that the Dbmoosat is the great advertising medium of Linn county, and our merchants perhras, might also find it to their advantage to patronits ths great Democratic weekly John Donaca, our popular merchant, has painted the front of his wood house sdjoiniag his store, also building a nsw counter for store room, and it looks very ., Aa A much like John was nxtng to stay. Geo. Howell, Esq., has been making some nsw improvements about his place in the way of a new pioket fenoe, also Mr. Rumbaugh, wbioh new im provemonta are giving our town i pleasant and homelike appearance. We note new improvements and new ener gy on every hand. Our people appear contented and seem to be flxma up homes that would do credit to older and wealthier eommunities. We are greatly pleased, (and this is putting it mild,) about our prorpeots for bridge across the nantiam at this place, as we understand that our Hon. County Court will order us one if there are sufficient funds. In view of tha above fact our business men are smiling their blandest smiles, and our friends across the river are happy beyond measure. Two weeks ago, the 1st Sunday, we were treated t a series of smwosiaira by our Advent friends, conducted by Revs. Smith, Preston and Hamilton. On Sunday last Rsv. Joslin preached quite an interesting sermon to our peo ns from Dan. 2, 44. To-night and to-morrow,and perhapa onger, we expect services under the auspices of the Holiness Association and Evangelical church. Travel has commenced across the mountains. Quite a band of cattle teased through laat Saturday en route for Eastern Oregon. Two of our young men, Messrs. lien- sr and Slavens, started last Monday to see if they could better their condition and find a place where the filthy lucre was easier gathered than in the valley. Our people are greatly rejoioed over the rain,and the giowler lu predicted "the drouth had set in' is not to be found, and we suppose has sought less favored skies to ply his vocation. We note a new comer at Mr. E. C. Jackson's. Its a girl. Mother and child doing well. Deacon 8hea had a fine Chinook sal mon in his possession last Saturday, weighing 19 I be. We suppose it is no harm to take such a fiah in self defense. Occasional. Pan? ent. The farmers are almost through iog. The fall wheat looks fine, and the prospects are splendid for a large scop of wheat. We are lad to hear that J. F. Beard's child is improving. Mrs. J. J. Beard spent a few days in Salem last week. There is talk of a Sunday school con oert at the M E Church at this place in the near future. Mr. Alonzo Dote the detective and horse traiuer has disappeared from our midst. Two agents of the State Insurance Co. were in town looking after the in ters! of the company. J. J. Beard s an expert plowman especially when Cass Scott rides the 9 horse. Mr. Jessie Moees is camped on the Willamette bottom where he has the contract of culling 60 cords of wood. Mr. W It. Brown the egg merchant gave the town a visit this week. We wish that Rosebud would get a sliog shot and shoot the frogs as they disturb the sleep of Little Sumklowek. Tine. April 20th, 1883. Mrs. James Barges was visiting her sen William last week. H. H. Thompson has gone to the Bohemian mines in company with W. J. Cramwell of Harrisburg and some other parties from Coburg The T ewes Cemetery was cleared of brush aod weeds last week. Some steps are being taken to get a deed to the land, which is a move in the right direction. Born. To the wife of Clarence Tay lor, April 1 7th, - a son. A drove of oattlo belonaing to Mr. Wind field from the vioinity of Leba non passed through here to-dav en- route to Lake county. Miss Nellie Wtlloughby has been sick for the last three weeks. A frost here last night nipped some of tbs young vines. Some fine showers fell last week, net as much as was desirable though, still, it was a benefit to the grain and gardens llnlaiey April 22nd, 1885. Died. On the 17 th lnst, the in fant child of E. and Ellen Hayes of this place. Wm. Chastaln is not expected to live many days. He is an old settlor of this county. There is nearly 25.000 bushels of wheat m the Halaoy warehouse wait- lag for better prices. Eoontz t Lame have about 20,000 of that amount in their house. The crop prospect never was better at this time of the year in this vi cinity. Farmers eyes begin to bright en In anticipation ofbetter prices. Building is at a dead stand still in this part of the country, and it is hop ed a change will come soon so that what few carpenters are here may live financially for it has been nipping times for them. Wanders Never Cease, Prof O Donaldson, New Orleans, La,, proprietor of Museums, whe suffered eighteen years with rheumatic pains, states he has spent ten thousand dollars to get cured. After trying dooters,famous baths, electric appliances and legions of liniments without relief, he tried St. Jacobs Oil, whloh completely cured him. It Is a wonderful remedy, he says, and he has sold his crutches. Albany. What ha fteeeae or the (offee tiuU, This Is a question that the firemen would like to have answered. Have not the young ladles of the present got as much get up about them as those of tbs past? will they sit back and not help the boys so much as to mske them a cup of coffee when It would come in so handy. A great many times after fires the boys will congregate In the saloons to get a warm drink of liquor when It the cof fee club were out In force as it always should be they would not go to such places for a drink, but would tako their cup of corTee and thon retire to their homes a groat deal hotter pff than if they wont to iho saloon and got half drunk. Will tho young ladles of Albany stand hack when they could do so much good OLly by a little exertion and time ox ponded. It Is a well known fact that Albany had tho first Coffeo Club of any com panies In tho stats and at tho proeent tlmo the majority of tho towns In tho Willamette Valloy of much lesser note aod else than Albany, have their Coffee Clubs which hold iheJr moot. ngs each month and never tulss a lire in having warm coffoo for tho firemen to drink. It Is also claimed by the Albany lire dopartmoiit that wo have the banner volunteer fire uV pariment of tho state. Can we truth fully claim such when other towns have all that constitute a dopartment consisting of their companies, coITim clubs, hose teams, etc., It Is well known throughout tho stale that the coffee club of tho Albany department has sunk Into oblivion. The neigh boring towos In tho valley sot back and make sport of one of tho beat and and oldest departments In tho state aod say that the young ladies have not got enough life about them even to organize a coffee club for the bene fit of the boys when It would do ho much good and at so very little. Any company In the city would will ingly tender the uao of their hall for tho meeting of a club free of chaige and assist In paying tho expense of the same should they bo called upon to do so. Come ladles, old and young, and rally to the front and organize a club and msinttin It and show the boys that you appreciate their efforts n saving property. A. FrUEMAN. Mob bin mt tfse H, sir a. .
