THE EUGENE CITY GUARD.
SATURDAY.
..DEC. 30, 18S2.
A QunlioB or Revenur.
We are pleased to hoc that a largci
tnajority of Democratic leaders arc tak
ing the right view on tlio question of
raising revinua to support the peneral
government. The gorerniiiont mu.t
'le supported, thn national dolt niUKt
1 paid and internal improvements
'aided. At present tlie running ex
fjenscs of the government are obtained
from the internal tax and the revenue
from imports. There can be no dou'it
tat that there is too much money now
raised to supply the demand. The in
direct taxation of the people must
coase. The Democracy is taking the
correct stand that after the internal tax
is taken from matches and proprietary
articles, reform and radical reform
should be made on the duties on ini
ports, so that instead of being for pro
tection the tariff would simply be to
raise, in an easy manner, the necessary
revenue for sustaining the government,
Tliis would leave the tax on whisky
and totacco, from which is annually
raised over $125,000. This would
give us cheap clothing and food and
high-priced whisky and tobacco. This
is as it should be.
Our readers will doubtless be sur
prised when they notice that a measure
exactly the opposite is Iming urged by
prominent Republicans. They want
. the tax entirely removed from whisky
and tobacco and the present high pro
tective tariff left as it is. If the Amer
lean people aro so fond of protecting
monopolists at tho sacrifice of every
thing else, then and then only will
they support tho measure to give us
free whisky and cheap toba:co, while
the necessities of life grow dearer and
dearer, It is qui to ime that the "in
fint" industries of our country could
stand alone. It is gutting time when
our merchant marine should le revived
and now by the judicious, wholesome
and enlightened policy of fair play it
will spring into renewed life and he
the greatest blessing to our country.
The Democratic policy means a great
deal to thn American people it means
from twenty to fifty per cent less for
tho machinery you buy; it means
twenty per cent, more a bushel for
wheat ; it means, in brief, that the
manufacturing monopolist can no long
er put his hand into your pocket and
take away your hard-earned money.
Further than this, it means that the
necessities of life shall not bo taxed to
raise a needless .amount of money, but
the luxuries of all klixls shall bcur 4h
burden. While it ill pass no snmp
tuary laws prohl i nn fni r
any article of f 1 ;iv . , i
make tho wlnVky drinker ryuhira
and rightfully y.- i-.r his di n,i,

SUMMARY EXECUTION.
Awakening of the Vigilance Committee
in Prloevllle.
The following particular of the killing of
three men in and near i'rineville en last
Tuesday night sre furnished by an extra
issued fr mi the News ofiiee on Sunday, Dec.
24th:
Oil yesterday morning the citizens of
I'rineville aeio thrown into a fover of ex
citement upon ht'ivriiig of the shooting of Al.
Swart', s resident of Oohocn, who Lad beeu
(topping in town for the past week. A purty
of six were playing a social g.nno of curd at
U10 Kxchango saloon on Friday night, when
suddunly a loud report of a shot gun was
beard, and the plan from the window near
the can) table wm shattered ami blown in
nearly every direction. Mr. Swaiti, who
tat next to tho window. said, "That s n of
a b h mado a good ahot," sir! then it was
discovered that ho (Swarts) was shot in the
back And s;d of tho ne jk, ten or twelve shot
taking effort. The wounded man was taken
to the Occidental hotel, and died at about 10
o'clock on yesterday morning, To the law
abiding citizen thin was allocking euough,
but feeling waa iucri-aaed when people cunie
in from the country and told of thn diacovory
of two men hanging by tlioir necks to a ju
mper. This but tragedy took plane about
throe mile f rum town, near the Ochocu,
Upon hearing this the proper ndiuers went to
the place and an inquest wai hold, the ver
dict of t!ia jury being that the bodies were
those of 8yd Houston and Chas. Luster, and
that they evidently came to their death hy
being hung by the neck, and from gun shot
wounds in head, all inflicted by nnkoown
parties Tho verdict of the jury at the in
(juoat Upon tho body of Al Swarta was that
said Swarts came to his doath by gunshot
wounds in tho neck and head, indicted by
parties unknown.
Al Swarta has resided several year in the
wllcy of the Ochoco, being engaged in the
stock business.
8yd Houston has also Maided in this sec
tion, following the business of horse raiding.
Chaa.' l.ostor was s into arrival here, of no
particular occupation, but claimed to be a
practical jockey. Deceased cams to this
place from Calilornia a short time ago. lie
has no relatives here-
Tlie general accepted reason for such work
is ri'puated attempts, many of which have
been successful, st spiriting horses out of
that section of country.
Christmas Tree at Irving.
The young people of Irving- had some time
ago resolved that Christmas should lie iroierly
Iwervod in this little place. Accordingly,
they formed a committee of arniij,'emfcnU and
went to work like beavers, and left nothing
undone. Their untiring efforts were crowned
with succeus. The Irvinjf hall was beautifully
decorated "Merry Christmas" and "Happy
New Year" wore tastefully arrayed by fair
hands, while the young gentlemen provided
the tree and assisted in doing the heavy work.
At an early hour on Christmas mnniing the
OMtu mittoe a.embled at Irving ball ready to
place upon the tree tho presents. Busy hands
were engaged all day iu putting presents upon
the tree, and not till bulf past seven were they
permitted to rest The lady nieinliers of the
committee had prepared as elegant dinner and
spread it in the school-room below. At 12
'clock all were invited to dine. We noticed
several elegant cakes made by the your.g la
dies, whose names are deserving of public men
tion; Miss Mary Yates made an elegant pyra
mid cake; Miss Mollie Bond donated a hand
some pound cake, beautifully decorated; Mine
Lou Howe a handiiome cake; while Miss Click
Bond was not to be surpassed With the differ
ent kinds of fine cakes, showing fine culinary
training; Mix Belle Iiunhnelt brought fine
samples of her cooking, which, all pronounced
excellent. At 8 o'clock the hall was filled
with children and their parents, when Mr. C.
V. Boggs, one of the committee, stepped in
front of the tie and requested the children to
be patient, as he had just received a dispatch
from Kugene City stating that Santa Claus had
left Eugene for Irving and was expected every
moment. Just then the old gentleman made
his aptrarance and wan greeted with applause.
He was a Santa Claus that was a Hauta Claus.
He was glad to meet tli9 little children; he ad
mired the tree very much, and left directions to
distribute tho presents. Little Daisy Bond(
aged eight years, sang the "Spanish Cavalier
in such a creditable manner that she was en-
cored and sahg, "We are the Gleaners." The
tree was thes relieved of the pressnU, some of
which were very valuable, whilo others created
considerable morrinicnt, in which the school
teacher came in for his share. He requests us
to return thanks fur tho odd mitten he git, and
threatens to go up the rallri'ad track for the
mate. Miss Lou Rows tang several beautiful
pieces. Tho best of order prevailed. The
committee desire to return thanks to Messrs.
Yates and I'itzer for tho free use of the ball ;
also to Mr. J as. Bond, Walter Gross, Allen
Bond, Jr., O. P. If off, and Lincoln Bond, for
their valuable services Happy New Year to
all Iavmo.
