David N. Biiwsey.
Is a native of Derby, Connecticut,
where he was born in 1827. He was
early trained to farming, and continued
in pursuit of that calling until 1850,
when he name to this coast by way of
Panama, He first located in Portland,
then only a new opening in a dense for
est, where he began merchandising. In
1852 he came to Jacksonville, bringing
with him a large stock of goods. He
continued in business here until the
Summer of 1863, when he bought the
donation claim of Kobt. Mulligan, near
the mouth of Foots creek, whither he
removed his family. In 18C4 he went
to Montana with a stock of goods,
which ho sold at Gold creek and Black
foot city. He continued in business in
erritory'fbr nearly ten years, and
L3H!j thereTfciW&imfcfntc. times, when,
the people took the law in their 'own
hands and rid the country of organized
baids of desperadoes. From Montana
Mr. Birdsey went to seek a better
country, extending his travels through
Northern Mexico, Arizona, New Mex
ico, Utah and Colorado, and finally
making his way back to his old home
in Jackson county, which he declares he
would not exchange for any spot he has
ever found in all his travels. His farm
is one of the loveliest in the valley, and
his stock range is inexaustible.
Mr. Birdsey was married in 1853, to
Miss Clara Fleming, of Portland, and
the family now consists of the parents,
who are still in vigorous health, and
four children, two boys and two girls,
all of whom are grown to manhood and
womanhood. Mr. Birdsey was the
first Justice of the Peace between Jack
sonville and Canyonville, and in 18C1
he was elected County Commissioner
for this county. He was Quartermas
ter and Commissary during the Indian
war of 1S55-G, having taken the field
against the hostiles in 1853. During
the la&t year of the war the Indians
made a raid on a large band of his
horses and succeeded in getting away
with them all.
In politics Mr. Birdsey is a Repub
lican of the independent school. He
is a man of keen discrimination in all
matters where hisjudgment isoft'W.

rUUIAPS A JUfeTAKE.
The Douglas "Independent,' in
speaking of Jackson County politics,
leaves the inference that there is still
a Democratic ring in this county. Al
though Mr. Kelly is a keen observer,
we think he is mistaken. There was
such a ring here; one that tried blust
er and bull-dosing till tho voters at
large broke it up at the last election.
It may be just possible that the few
atoms that composed it may again ag
gregate together into an instrument of
political disturbance. Should this be
the case it will receive in the next cam
paign its finishinij stroke, as the people
of this count- have at last learned the
value of political independence, and re
alized the important fact that they can
attend to their own local affairs with
out the aid of political organizers.
When officers are nominated on the
square, without the mean and detesta
ble wire pulling and fraud common to
both parties, they are left perfectly
free to do their duty, and only respon
sible to the people at large. If there
i's a "ring," as the Independent thinks
still in existence, it will hardly show
itself, as the people of Jackson count?
have got too much good sense to sub
mit to its tyranny or impertinence.

of civilization are more likely to over

be false to truth it can not be true to
itself, and paralyzes its own strength.
The great Corliss engine, perfect in its
construction, beautiful in its symmetry,

there were the slightest deviation in

urn rinuc school.
To-day is the last daf of the school
year for the Jacksonville district and
the connection of Prof. Merritt with
our school, unless that gentleman is
again engaged by the Directors. The
year would have ended on Friday last
but three days were lost during the
last quarter one on the principal's ac
count, one on May day, one for the
Teacher's Institute, which are now ful
ly made up. We do not know wheth
er Prof. Merritt will be re-engaged or
not. Indeed we do not know whether
he desires re-engagement, as his ability
will command a situation elsewhere.
We hope, however, and we believe the
wish is almost unanimous in this dis
trict that ho will be retained at any
reasonable salary. We can afford to
pay Mr. Merritt as much as- he will be
offered elsewhere, and as each year
our children advance in age there is a
greater necessity for the services of
such a teacher. Our Ashland neighbors
are building up and elevating the grade
pttbejr school and we hofie the stan
dard of ours will at least be maintained
where it is, if not raised any higher.
We have one more reason for the wish
that there will be no change made and
it is a reason conceded by educat
ors to have great weight. It is
because tho present teacher has a
thorough knowledge of the disposition
and capacity of his pupils, enjoys their
very highest esteem and can therefore
exercise the most complete control
over them without an effort or any
waste of efficiency. To say the same
of a new teacher would be to fortell
the result of an experiment, sometimes
successful after a long term of demor
alization in the school. Prof. Merritt's
work speaks for itself. Let the parents
of this District attend school on this
day and judge for themselves whether
he has been faithful and efficient or
not, and let the whole Board of Direc
tors attend and ask themselves if they
will be justified in hazarding the exper
iment of a change for the sake of a few
dollars.
base n ill.
We hear so little of this health giv
ing, invigorating "national pastime,"
that we fear that it and the Republic
are fast going to decay. What a pity
it will be if the day ever arrives when
American youth will no longer return
tj their homes with peeled noses, blis-
gvjmj"hv cracked ribs or strained
luscles, gained in heroic strucrcles for
distinction at this eminently amusing
ami profitable pastime. Won't it be
sad when our young men conjrrejrate
no longer on the street corners to dis
discuss in the slang of the field the
"ins" and the "outs" of the noble game,
when they themselves vote it work in
stead of play, and voting it work dis
grace the national pastime and bring it
into -contempt as an ignoble thing?
Melancholy reflection! That the hour
may ever come when our boys will be
deprived of the only exercise, the only
means of muscular development recog
nized asTespectablo and really healthy.
It is true accidents happen well regu
lated families are not without them
well organized clubs are not always ex
empt. We have known youths to go
limping home so soverely strained that
they were unable to earn their own
living for weeks, but they had kind
parents and sympathizing comrades.
We have known an unlucky matron
standing by to catch a stray ball on the
"ily and go home with a pain in her
stomach, but they had the satisfaction
of knowing that some "chit of a girl
was similarly situated. When this
splendid out-let for the exuberance
of youth is checked is there no other
hope? Only one that we know of, but
it is just now under the ban of disgrace.
It isa combination of exercise and pro
fit,. the poetic linewf motion and the
proud'self satisfaction of utility. Let
our boys hold a meeting and resolve
that base ball is work and it will be
squelched; resolve that rawing wood is
play and it will be at once elevated in
to respectability and become highly
popular. This is the best substitute
for base ball we know of, and the boy
who can saw the most wood will feel
justly proud of his usefulness.
THE PKKMIHrS VETO.
President Hayes seems to be estab
lishing a character for "back bone"
such as will not leave the slightest
doubt as to his determination to be
the head of the Government In his
recent message to the house of repre
sentatives, witiioiclmg Jus approval of
the appropriation bill with the politic
al rider attached thereto, he shows in
the most unmistakable manner that
he is not made of stuff that can either
be cajoled or coerced. It is time for a
hoodlum Congress to understand that
before they can expect to consumate any
scheme it must have at least the sem
blance of constitutionality. Wli?rit.
er, who tried to make himself famous
by ins teartul haste to reach Washing
ton, is one of the misruirlpfl fnnlo i,r.
thinks Congress in the whole govern
ment but when he recovers from the
excitement of his hurried journey he
may discover his mistake.
A 11 OBD TO oni FAKMEBS.
The late action in regard to the har
bor of refuge has develoved some facts
heretofore unthou"ht of. Few of our
citizens know the immense area lying
waste that was capable of producing
wheat, or of the actual extent of other
industries. It has been demonstrated
beyond a doubt that if we had a rail
road from here to Crescent City, the
traffic over it would pay handsomely;
it would stimulate production by open
ing a market, and save us a very hand
some sum annually in freights. We
are paying now on about thirteen hun
dred tons of imports and exports sixty
dollars per ton or seventy eight thous
and dollars annually. This should be
carried for thirteen dollars per ton, as
freight can be landed on the wharf at
Crescent City for three dollars, which
would make a saving to us of sixty-one
thousand dollars per annum. Money
saved is money gained, and it is useless
to say who would be the gainers. Give
the farmers of tlos and Josephine couri-I
ties a market for every pound of gram
they can produce, a market for poultry,
eggs, bacon and everything they can
possibly raise, reduce freights on im
ports over sixty thousand dollars a year,
and is there any obstacle in the way of
their prosperity? Year after year our
people complain of the scarcity of mon
ey. Each succeeding year the com
plaint is louder and people wender why
we seem to grow poorer. Our largest
source of money supply has been the
mines, but it should bo observed that
the character of mining operations is
entirely changed, requiring but a small
amount of the labor formerly employed,
and that the bulk of the dust does not
go into general circulation. A smaller
source of supply is the military post,
but our farmers are so keen to handle
a little money that competition reduces
that market fifty per cent less than it
should be. In fact careful investiga
tion discloses the disagreeable truth
that we are annually paying out more
money for merchandise than we receive
for all qur products, and if we know
how much cash capital we start with a
very simple rule of arithmetic will de
termine how long it will last. A valley
with the soil, climate, productions and
capacity of ours need not be without a
road to a market if our people will
wake up to their own interest Even
if a breakwater is not constructed at
Crescent City there are facilities there
already foiMsliirpinOur-nrlnre.arid a
railroad oniy is necessary to take it to
that point. We say advisedly that one
firm in San Francisco are ready to put
one hundred thousand dollars into the
construction of a narrow gauge, and if
our own people would show a willing
ness to help themselves by taking that
amount of stock there would not be the
slightest difficulty in securing the bal
ance. Our farmers say they have no'
money. Will they give bonds to deliv
er one thousand bushels of wheat when
a road is finished and take stock for it?
They could well afford to make a gift of
it and the proposition might be made
the test of the sincerity of their desire
for an outlet. We commenced the ari
tation of this question alone, without
any aid from the press of this county,
but are gratified to see one paper fol
low us after several months of hesita
tion, and we intend to continue it until
our people are awake to its importance.
