' - : , f-:- , M-M'JJJ THE OREGON SENTINEL JACKSON V It.IK t "Wednesday, Marcii 10, 1880. Jtouphlnc County Republican Jlnm Con culiou. The Republicans of Josephine County "Oregon, -are requested to meet iu Mass (Convention at Kerbyville on Saturday the 20th day of 3Iarch 1880, at 1 o'clock P. 31, for the purpose of electing two (2) Dele gates to represent them in the Republican State 'Convention to lie held at Portland April'Slst, 1880. A general attendance Is requested. By order of the Central Committee. C. II. Cat-dwell, Chairman. March 3rd, 1880. EDITOKI IL MITES. The Catholic population of the "United states is estimated at 6,143, 222. If -Judge Field is, as some partisan sheets affirm, so good and pure a man it would be a pity to take him from the Suprems bench. There is no Vice-Presidential boom for anybody in sight yet Senator Ferry is suspected of a willingness to set one in motion bearing his name. Braunhart is again brawling in the California Legislature. He was sus pended by that body for three days, bat, -perhaps, not in the proper manner. The following, from the report of a Democratic meeting in San Francisco March 2d explains why that party boasts of big majorities. Mr. Lynch remarked : Lord Bcaconsfield, England's pre mier, is said to be suffering from gout. It is evidently not in the stomach, or. iie would bo more alive to the pangs of sflie .suffering Irish. It is one of the plainest indications of current politics that the Democrats liase their only .hope of success this year on the possibility of a Republican blunder at Chicago. 3Iiss Jennie Flood, to whom TJlys ses S, Grant, Jr. is engaged, has bepn presented with two millions and a half by her father. His friends now speak of her as Lis "finance." Tie Iowa House of Representatives, "by a vote of nearly two to one, have decided to submit to the people a con stitutional amendment in favor of making women eligible for election to the Legislature. By an Irish paper we see that "baby mine" is being sung in the Bel fast theatre. We' hope it will remain there and send over to America for Iv irandfather'e clock" and get the old thing started again. Our Democratic Congress refuse to revise the tariff this term and so the heavy duty on paper will continue to impoverish publishers. And yet, that is the party whose war cry once was "Free trade and Sailor'-s rights;" and the party whose boast now is, "that Democracy is unchangeable." ''We think" is becoming the stereo typed language of Judge Boise when it devolves on him to deliver an opin ion of the Supreme Court. Who the devil cares what the Court "thinks?" The people want to know what it "knows" about law and not what it "thinks," and if the Court knows law it should say so, square toed and no dodging. According to all accounts there is great difficulty in ascertaining how Gen. Butler stands politically. Why anybody should care particularly to know is not very plain, but it seems there are people trying to find out. Neither party seem to want him, Re publicans insisting that he is a Dem ocrat, and Democrats insisting that he is a Republican. Gen. Butler himself says he is a Grant man, although caus ing it to be understood that if he were himself nominated by the Greenbackers he would support the ticket with un feigned delight. THO ITEMS. The following item is found iu the Corvallis "Gazette;" "Jackson county .manufactures nearly as much whiskey .as the rest of the State. It is the only county in the State whoso inhabitants "egg" women." The "Catholic Senti nel" spe'kingof our contributions for the relief of the starving Irish, remarks: "This remittance makes a pro rata of nearly three dollars each from -the resi dents of Jacksonville, and, we think, .entitles them to the championship in the realms of charity over any other jiortion of the United States." At the election at which the Com jnittee was called into being only 4,000 votes were tost, while at the pro ceeding election there were 20,000 Democratic voters. A young man who wants to bo suc- -xessful in anything he undertakes, must have tho essential elements of a strong manly xharactec -Lacking these ie must fail. Hugh Duffy then arose and let a large sized cat out of the meal tub by saying, "What's the reason we polled 20,000 votes at the preceding election? Ill tell you why it was. Because men that have voted more times that day than there are precincts in the city." HE M.VCU1XE POLITICS. The Grant movement is on the-wane and if there is one thing indicated by the decline of Grant .stock, more than another, it is "the growing independ ence of the jieople and their disgust at "machine politics." .Blade up Slates, packed primaries and loaded conven tions are "played out" even in national politics and the man who wins his nomination by trickery will find it difficult to win his election. The peo ple have been taught so many lessons regarding their "sovereign power" by demagogues; have heard so much about this great government resting entirely on popular intelligence tliat it is now extremely difficult to undeceive them, or teach them to undervalue their priv ileges. The machine politicians are in much the same situation as an ancient "Diomedes" who taught his horses to eat human flesh, and was afterwards, himself, devoured by them. Parties, controlled hy professional politicians whose objective point is the office, have not always shown thehiselves above corruption that shames decency, and this truth is branding itself into the minds of the people m the most forcible way. In truth there is no more disgusting sight to American manhood, than the only sycophancy of those who live by politics, just on the eve of election, and their tricks arc be ginning to bo well understood. Thero is another truth that is forcing itself on all intelligent people: The fact, that where they can procure their own servants without the aid of "middle men" or political brokers, those ser vants are responsible directly to the people themselves and unfaithfulness caw not be charged up against one par ty or another. Independence is the very soul of patriotism but so long as it is stifled by the impudent demands of party usage, enforced by a handful of political "tape worms" our boasted independence is something only fit to be engraved on the collars that are manufactured by the political machine and worn by men who foolishly think themselves free. bTOCSi IN LAKE. By the kindness of Mr. R. C. Arm strong we nre permitted to make the following extract from a Liukville let ter of March 2d: The outlook here is anything but cheering for stock-men, or any other class. The Winter, fcr such it is, though in the morifirof-Mai co upon us. It is yet very cold every indication of more snow in fact it is "spitting" now, preliminary to set tling down to energetic work. Sun day last we had a very short period of time devoted to "gentle rain" the first and only rain since September last. Look for considerable snow dur ing the week, and probably some very cold weather. On Saturday last a South wind melted a great df al of the snow, so that now, mother earth is plainly visible, though only in favored localities. Snow still covers the ground in places to the depth of 8, 10 or 1G inches, and in drifts, G and 8 feet Stock, cattle and sheep are dying in large numbers. Feed -is nearly gone, and grass hardly started. A very large per cent of cattle will perish, and near ly all the sheep in the surrounding country. Many cattle, that have been fed during almost tho entire winter, will not survive unless favorable weath er comes to their relief and that speedi ly. Should tho weather continue stormy, the loss will be more than 80 per cent, possibly greater than that. Farther East of here, a distance of 150 to 250 miles, stock seems to bo faring much better. Am of the opinion that this county will -not recover from the effects of this terrible Winter for several years. A number of men, who, last fall, had a very good start in life are now again poor, owing to severe losses. Have heard some of them say that, in the Spring, they will depart for more con genial climes. X'utur prospects are indeed gloomy. ri'itm. Thursday Feb. 25th. was the anni versary of the Jewish feast of the Pu rim, a moveable festival, in which the Jews commemorate their deliverance from the wiles and strategems of Ha man as recorded in the Book of Either. The observance of this festival has been religiously maintained in all countries where the Hebrew race is represented. But in Jacksonville it passed off so quietly that but few, if any, of our citizens were aware of the anniversary of that historic day. In fact, the observance of religious holi. days, both among Jews and Gentiles on this coast, is growing beautifully less every year. The engineers of De Lesseps have completed their survey for the'isthmus canal, and put the cost at 6lG8,000, 000, and the time of construction at eight years. The next thing for the enthusiastic Frenchman to do is to raise the money and go ahead. THE GA31E LIU For tho guidance .of those persons who are accused of needless slaughter of game we publish the following ex tract from the statutes: Sea 3. That it shall be unlawful for any person or persons, to take, kill or destroy, any elk or deer at any time, for the sole purpose of obtaining the horns, hides or hams of the same, and the person or persons so offending shall be fined a sum not less than twenty dollars for each offense. The law makes it unlawful to "take, kill or destroy" any elk or deer froml the last day of January until the first day of September, provided, however, that persons are not to be prevented from killing such game for their own consumption. This law is too plain to admit of any mis-construction, but the latter provision is so abused as to make the law almost adead letter, and a cor respondence elsewhere is a sample of the frequent complaints made to us. Recently the authorities tried to pun ish Sumo parties in this county for vio latingthe game law, buttheevidence -was hardly sufficient and they were not in dicted. The District Attorney express es his determination to enforce the law and he should bo aided by all good cit uens. llie indiscriminate slaughter or game is brutal waste, and its rapid des truction by a class of men, too lazy to work for an honest living, who depend on the sale of hides and hams to sup port their own worthless carcasses, ought to be stopped. COi:UESI'OMIE.L'E. Waldo, Oitccoy, March 1, 1880. Ed. Sentinel: Three parties near here have viola ted the game law lately, one pai ty kill ed a number of deer for the pelts, an other party left the fore parts and took the hams, the other party killed three times as many deer as they could pos sibly make lawful use of., I am also very reliably informed that an employee of a mining company on Applegate ac tually killed fourteen deer in -one day and left twelve of them in the woods untouched. A probable arrest will come out of the crimes already commit ted here. . Fox Akabias. If the above refers to any killing dono since February 1st and can be proven there can be no doubt of con viction, and let no "deer" murderer escape. EJ.
