OFFICIAL PAPER FOR BENTON COUNTY
a. CAETKK.
HOW NOT TO DO IT.
When the Court House at Albany
was full ol farmers and grangers,
rrady, nay eager, to do wha ever was
pointed out to them as likely to assist
in the great work ot opening out for
the Valley its own independent route
to the great world beyond, a certain
gi'ntleman who professed to attend the
invention as a representative o Ben
ton county rose to give adv ice to flfit;
h i Hence so directly contrary to the
object for which the meeting waacall--!
t igetlier, that it seems to call for
ex'rn.t: on one hand, and to de-in.-md
some comment on the other.
Whit sort of a speech was it that he
nit-le? The essence of it, stripped of
sme interesting information as to his
0
ow n birth and parentage, was to say
ti the farmers of this valley: tillers of
th- soil you are, tillers of the soil you
mi-. remain; and so keep your eyes
wel! down in the mud, and raise no
thoughts, no efforts to anything what
ever outside your own snake fences.
Take what providence sends you in
the way d imDiovement, but lilt no
finger, s-t no signature, spend no mo
mentof time or cent of money to aid
in any public work whatever. If we
are correctly informed, the speaker
was only justifying his own consistent
coarse of conduct. It would be interc
epting to know by what influences
this farmer, pure and simple, had
been dragged from the retirement of
his own acres into the center of that
active, excited crowd.
Most men if they are unwilling ei
ther from principle or circumstances,
to join their neighbors for a public
end, will at least stand by with friend
ly wishes for their friends' success.
if they will not or can not put their
own shoulder to the wheel, they wil
at !e8t cheer; hose on who are stri
vim; and- pushing at the loa3. But
some there are who find a perverse
pleasure in putting stones in the way
and if they can but succeed in stop
ping the cart in the mud: "I told
yon how it would be," they cry:
Why on earth can't you let things
alone, or it yon must stir, wait till I
give the word.
Fortunately sueri- men are few, very
few. And when the cart dot move,
as it always does sooner or Utter, it
they don't clear out of the way, they
get very quickly pushed aside and
forgotten..
Katurally what the convention re
solved ou was all to the good : the
friends of the enterprise see how' res
olute the valley is in the support ot
the work the Corvallis Gazette has
advocated so long.
By all means let us have the peti
tion to Congress and work heartily
to make it so strong, so numerously
signed, as to demand attention to its
prayer. It will doubtless do good.
If the committee which has been
nominated see that a farther effort is
necessary, in the direction that the
Linn County Grange were prepared
to work, they will tell us so, and their
voice will command our efforts. We
hear from the Bay that the present
appropriation will last about four
months yet, possibly a little longer.
Therefore there is time to act again
if action it necessary.
In another column we print an af
fidavit as to the depth of water and
the condition of the entrance to the
Bay, that we trust will help to con
firm any who may yet be disposed to
doubt. But with what force does it
prove the utter, we had well .nigh
written the criminal folly of the acci
dent that cost three men their lives.
Here we have a harbor with twenty
feet of water on its entrance at high
water, and with twelve teet at one.
east of the lead only at but two hours
flood. The channel we know, and
here it is sworn that it is well defined,
nnd plain, easy to find and to keep.
The U. S. Eengineers are at work ;
they know the channel just as well as
one ofour readers know the main street
of this town ; a little patience in
waiting would have brought off a ca
pable pilot. But as the unfortunate
captain's mind had been stuffed with
tales of the dangers of the Yaquin. ,
and as has been, well said, he neg!e( t -d
surveyed ranges and channels in fa
vor of as wretched Hue of amateur
buoys of lager beer kegs, and bis own
life and the lives of two of his men
pay the forfeit.
In other days and -other seas hang
ing was not thought too bad for
those wretched criminals who by
alse beacons aud feigned lights de
coyed vessels to their doom on rocks
and sands. But whoever save those
false warnings to Captain Penm-l,
which drove him and his men to
their fate, seem to as to have been
guilty of moral wrecking; their con
wdmMi ought to carry a heavy bur
den for years to come.
DEATH OF PENPAL LANE.
On Tuesday night, General Joseph
Lane, the first Territorial Governor
of Oregon, and a man who has occu
pied a most important place in the
state's history, passed away at the
ripe aye of 80 years. His death has
long been expected and it was no
surprhdi to his4;Vieuds. Geti'l Lane
was boi ii in North Carolina in 1801
and 1621 moved to Indiana, settling
ou a farm in Vanderburg county.
In 1822 he was retured to-the legisla
ture; his representative. -c-arees, thence'
forth, extending over 20 vears ; as
Slate Senator audi member of the low
er branch of the Indiana Legislature.
At the breaking out of the Mexican
war, in 1846, he resigned his Beat in
the Indiana senate and volunteered
as private soldier, but was at onee a
pointtdjColonel by president Polk and
soon afterwards commissioned Briga
dier General. At the battle of Buena
Vista, where he was wounded; he
commanded the left wing of the
American army. Oct. 9, 1857, at
the head of 3000 men, he defeated
Gen. Santa Anna at Huamautla. On
the l9.h I e took Atlixa, losing only
one man while the enemy lost 500.
Nov. 22, Lane took the strongly for
titled town of Mai. hie Mori, with a
large quantit y of military munitions.
He afterwards took Orizaba. On the
44th he defeated Gen. Jaruota at Te
haulapan. At the couclusion of the
war Lane was bieveted a Major Gen
eral ot the U. S. army and in August,
1848, was appointed Governor of
Oregon territory, from which office he
was subsequently removed by presi
dent Taylor. In 1851 Gen'I Lane
was elected delegate to uongress,
beating Gov. Gaines, and continuing
to represent the territory until 1858,
when, on July 7th he was elected to
represent the new State of Oregon in
the U. S. Senate, receiving 45 out of
50 votes in the Legislature. In I860
Joseph Lane was nomiuated by the
National Democratic convention, at
Baltimore, for the Vice Presidency
on the ticket with Breckinridge and
on the breaking out of the war was
in sympathy with the doctrines of se
cession. During the Indian war in
Ilogue river valley he took an active
part, having been unanimously ten.
dered command of the forces opera
ting against the Indians. General
Lane filled every position honestly
and well and any errors committed,
even the fatal mistake of sympathi
zing with the rebellion, were errors
of judgment As a private citizen
Joseph Lane leaves the unsullied rec
ord of an honest man. The brave old
veteran has answered the roll call of
the Eternal an 1 may his rest be easy.
The old soldier was laid to rest in
the Masonic eumetery at Roseburg in
the family vault just constructed, and
to which the remains of his wife had
been removed. There was a large at
tendance from Salem. Albans. Cor
vallis. Eugene City and Oakland, and
there was a very large attendance
from Douglass county. A very elo
quent and impressive -oration was de
livered by his old friend, ex-Senator
J. W. Nesmith, who paid a fitting
tribute to the memory of a man who
hasfilied so large a space in Oregon's
history.
THEFCONVENTICN,
YAQdNA BAL IMPROVEMENTS.
A few days since six cow-boys, who
were stopping at a ranch near San
Simon, A. T., by mistake used a large
quantity of arsenic instead of yeast
powder in making bread. They mixed
up enough poisoned dough to kill a
regiment of soldiers, and then when
baked ate of it with all their accus
tomed heartiness. In a few moments
they were stricken with a frightful
agony. They swore, raved, rolled in
the dust, and finally by a supreme ef
fort succeeded in starting for town on
their bare backed steeds thinking the
Asiatic cholera had surely attacked
them. Two of the boys fell by the
way -side and stretched out to die ; the
other four reached their destination
an 1 did the same. But the immodei-
atj qua:it'ty of arsenic worked the
needed cure, and after the lapse of
several painful hours the boys were
able to quaff an extrordinary draught
of whisky in honor of their salvation
from dark, cold graves in the cattle
covered hills.
At Walla Walla, the county Audit
or has paid the bounty on 1307 squir
rel scalns turned in during the month
of March this year. For a corres
ponding time in 1880 there were 10,-
711 scalps, and farmers are delighted
that the work of extermiaating these
pests is almost ended.
According to call, the Jfarmers ami citi
zens of Linn and adjoining valley counties
responded in large numbers to give ex
pression of their willingness to further the
proposed improvements now progressing at
Yaquina Bay, and early in the day the
streets we.e dotted here and there with lit
tle groups, talking over the ohjects of the
proposed meeting at the Court House. The
general expression on the street was that
the Willammette Valley must have another
opening to the seaboard for its products,
and was unwilling to pay 'exacting tribute
to the monopoly that now dictates terms to
the people in -a manner that is making it
odious in the extreme. The best and quid
est methods for accomplishing this object,
upon which all were unanimous, were also
topics of dismission, aud a warm interest
was evinced by all. At about II o'clock, s.
m. the meeting at the Court House was
satSed to order and the proceeding were as
follows:
The meeting was called to order by H. C.
Powell, Secretary of the Linn County Busi
ues Council. R A. Irvine was elected
chairman of the meeting, C. H. Stewart,
Secretary, and J. H. Maine, Assistant Sec
retary. Mr. Wallis Nash then read the
following resolutions adopted at a late meet
ing of the Linn County Council, in explana
tion of the object of the meeting:
Whereas, It appears that the $10,000 just
appropriated by Congress- in support of the
works for improving the Yaquina harbor en
trance is not sufficient to provide for the
vigorous prosecution o.f the works. And
Whereas, The completion of the improve
ment is an object of deep interest to the
whole of the farming population of the
Willammette Valley and especially to the
farmers of Linn comity because of the lm
portant influence of the improvement on the
completion of the Oregon Pacific railroad
conuecting the Willamette Valley with la
quinna Bay. And
Whereas, This council deems it desirable
at this juncture to make a public united ef
fort in aid of this object. Therefore
Resolved, That steps be taken by this
council to call a public convention ot the
farmers of the valley counties at Albany
within the next 21 days to adopt such steps
as may appear best to prove the public in
terest in this object and to contribute to
its attainment, and that measures be adopt
ed to call the public attention and arous
one common effort for this end. Aud
Resolved, That a public convention for
the above purposes of all interested be held
at the Court bouse in Albany, on Thursday,
April 21st at 10 a. m.
H. C. Powell moved that a committe of
seven be appointed to draft resolutions and
present them to the convention for action
thereon. Motion carried, and the following
committee on resolutions were appointed by
the chairman: .
Judge C. E. Monroe and Hon. Jas. Gingle,
of Benton county: Hon. S. A. Dawson and
H. C. Powell, of Linn county; E. H. Bel
linger, of Marion county; Hon. Harvey
Shelton and F. M. Kizer, of Linn county.
The meeting then adjourned until 1
o'clock, p. m.. when it was called to order
by the chairman, who made a few remarks
saying the meeting was in the interest of a
great enterprise and one in which the peo
pie of the whole valley should feel the deep
est interest. He did not want the people
to feel that it was a Granger meeting, but
that it was in the interest of all, and he
wanted everybody to feel free to take a part
in it and help aloug the object for which it
was called.
The report of, the committee on resolu
tions was then called for and the secretory
read the following
RESOLUTIONS:
Whereas, This meeting recognizes th
pressing need of developing and sustaining
m honest competition tor both freights and
passenger traffic, especially in the Willam
ette valley, but also throughout the whole
state of Oregon; and
'Whereas, This meeting is of the opinion
that such competition can only be effectual
by other ports being opened, and
Whereas, This meeting adopts the prin
ciple that it is a duty owed to the state of
Oregon and to her increasing population to
make all necessary efforts for these ends.
Therefore be it ,
Resolved, That the improvement to the
entrance of Yaquina Bay to an extent suf
ficient, or the entry and departure of grain
ships, and other larye ocean going crafts is
a matter of the deepest interest to the peo
ple of Oregon; that the convention has
every confidence in the ability and willing
ness of the United States government to
grant us such relief; that we appreciate its
action in the appropriations already made
and ask that Congress make such additional
appropriations as may be sufficient to com
ple the work. That the thanks of this con
vention are hereby tendered to Col. Gilles
pie of the U. S. Engineers, and to our sena
tors and representatives in congress for
their services in obtaining the appropriations
already made for the improvement of the
bar at the mouth of Yaquina Bay, and
Resolved, That this convention appoint
a committee consisting of one person from
Benton, Lane, Yamhill, Marion, Linn, and
Polk counties for the purpose of drafting a
petition, praying the government for ad
ditional appropriations tor the improvement
of the Yaquina bar, and that said committe
be instructed to circulate the petition in ev
ery Quarter of the counties mentioned, and
in such other sections of the state as they s je
tit, aud
Resolved, That copies of the proceedings
of this meeting be sent to t he valley press
and New York papers for publication, and
that coptes also be seut to our senators and
representatives in congress.
It was moved that the above resolutions
be adopted as presented, and that they fairly
represent the feeling of this meeting. Car
ried. A motion was made asking that the
resolutions be taken np separately and pass
ed. It was not supported, and the resolu
tions were adopted as read.
Wall is Nash, of Corvallis, was then call
ed upon and addressed the meeting at some
length. He depicted in a clear and able
manner the position of the people in this
section, and said unless some effort' was
made they would be entirely at the mercy
of one gigantic monopoly that has already
fastened itself upon the people of this state
to such an extent that it can dictate to the
producer the price of grain and every prod-
act of the farm that the rates of transporta
tion affect. He made a showing from their
own statements of the vast wealth they
were accumulating, and for which they were
grinding thepeople to the last point of for
bearance. He spoke of the manner in which
they opposed any competition, aad claimed
the whole northwestern territory as their
own by right of pre-emption. The evils of
such a monopoly are too plain not to be
seen and felt by every citizen of the State,
and it is time the people were alive too
ganize methods of counterbalancing the dan
ger. He gave a very interesting account of
the progress of the work now going on at
Yaquina Bay, and illustrated the description
by maps. He pictured the benefit of im
provements and ot a railroad from Yaquina
eastward, sail called upon the -citizens of
this valley to do all iu their power to fur
ther the enterprise. Mr. Nash estimated
the amount necessary to complete and put
iu shape the harbor improvements at about
$330,000.
Senator W. R. Bilyou followed Mr. Nash
in an Able manner, presenting the case hi
several forcible ways and urging the necessity
if prompt action. He referred to the rew
ords . of the last legislature and the fight
then made by the monopolists to defeat tin
railroad bill iu the interest of the people.
This he said was a fair example of the influ
ences that are being and would be brought
to bear against this movement, and In-
thought it was time the people stood up for
their rights.
Judge Moore of Corvallis, discouraged the
farmers from making any personal contrihu
tions toward the enterprise, but thought
best to rely wholy on petitioning emigres--.
Hon. Ralph C. Geer, of Marion county,
was then called and said that he w. s
wholly in favor of the citizens of the valley
making every effort, person il and thi swi.
for the accomplishment of this object, which
would give so much in return for the outlay
demanded. He wanted to see the matter
pushed and the work done and in a short
time the advance in prices and general pros
perity would more than repay the outlay.
He had personally inspected the harbor,
and his inspection was made at the request
of a capitalist who had at one time thought
of investing in the enterprise. Ae was thor
oughly satisfied of the feasibility of the
project in eyery particular. The mate ot
the steamer "Alex. Duncan'' had told him
that vessel had made the passage oftengand
never had any difficulty. There had al
ways been from 12 to 14 feet of water and
the entrance was a very safe one. At the
conclusion of Mr. Geer's remarks, the chair
man adpointed the following gentlemen as a
committe authorized by the resolutions to
draft petition and to see to its proper cir
culation. Hon John Whittaker, Lane county;
Manly Carrier, Benton; Hon. Ralph C.
Geer, Marion; Hon. Rob't Clow, Polk;
Hon. W. R. Billyeu. Linn; Hon. J. C. Bra
ley, Yamhill.
The meeting then adjourned.
