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.
