Newspaper Page Texti i' rj "- t THE OREGON SENTINEL .lACKSONVItLK . "Wednesday, April 21, 1880. JACIiSO.NVlLLr. AMt CKESCEST CITY WA.GOX ItOAK. Under this head the "Statesman" (Salem) makes the following allusion to our proposed enterprise, which bears pointedly to the relative position of the two rival cities with regard to the trade of Southern Oregon. Trade seeks its own natural avenues and 3f the propos ed road is opened San Francisco will win as nearly "all the profits of transpor tation that will be enjoyed by our own freighters. That paper says: "The people of Jackson and Josephine coun ties of this State, and Del Norte coun ty, California, are earnestly at work inaugurating an enterprise that is to secure the construction of a good wag on road between Jacksonville and Crescent City. Should they succeed the trade of these counties as well as, a part of Lake and Douglas will flow to and from San Francisco over that line. The trade of those loc jiiies consti tutes no inconsiderable v. 'n in tho an neal exchange of "injiliTWr'"" between Portland " aniT'the intcrior7'and tho prospect.of its loss should induce both the wholesale dealers of that city and the line of transportation connecting them with Hoseburg to extend the most liberal terms consistent with their business, to the people of South ern Oregon. We bhould. regret to see any por tion of the State compelled in behalf of the interests of the people, to throw its trade into the lap of a city which is a rival of our own metropolis, but rejoice to witness tho energy and do termination of our friends of South ern Oregon in securing cheaper means of transportation for their imports and exports. There is no fairer or more productive locality on this coast than that portion of the State drained by the Rogue river. Its mineral as well as agricultural resources, when once fully developed, will add millions of dollars to the wealth of Oregon. TUE "MIXI." case, The innocent public always suppose tho judiciary greatly elevated above the suspicion of policy and imagine that, like "John Littlejohn", they are "upright and downright", measuring all questions by the square and compass of truth. The action of the Supreme Court, in declining to pass upon the case of Sidney Dell until after election dissipates all such popular fancies and indeed, savors of the policy only prac ticed by demagogues. An attorney, Mr. Dell, is charged with gross un professional conduct, with having ma ligned and slandered the members of the Supreme tribunal, and his disliarr- ment 18 loudly demanded by his fessional brethren; his case could yen-eienined jSLanJia; Court deem it the wisest policy to do- for action until the result of the pend ing election. This case should have at once been decided on its merits. If Dell's offense were so rank he should be punished. Innocent or guilty, he has the right of every citi zen to a speedy trial and if the digni ty of the Supreme Court has been grossly outraged the stain should have been immediately wiped out. Two courses -were open to the Court, one the magnanimity that would have disarmed Mr. Dell and his friends, by according to him the widest latitude of criticism, the other, the sternst measure of jus tice, that would have rebuked un warranted interference with the pre rogatives of the bench. As neither course was adopted it is fair to pre sume that the Court could not afford to be magnanimous and was afraid to assert its own dignity and an expla nation, if any can be made, is due to tho people. TKE IIE.HOCKATIV .NOMINATIONS. The names presented for the suffra ges of tho people by the late Democrat ic convention are generally well-known, and will probably carry their party strength, and no more. The candi dates for the Supreme bench are known to be the most intonso Bourbon Demo crats, ono of whom has distinguished himself by being a willing accessory to Grover in the attempt to defeat the clearly expressed will of the people of Oregon. We mean J. K. Kelly, who stupidly endorsed an infamous proposi tion, then when covered with shame on the floor of the Senate, plead ignorance. There is little propriety in putting for ward for Judicial jiositi'-ns, men whose party allegiance is so extremely intense and we do not believe Judge Kelly will receive as hearty a support among fair thinking Democrats as his two col leagues. These nominees have ob tained their nominations through the regular party machinery, they must ex- Iiect therefore, to win or lose through he strength pr weakness of their own party, especially if the Republicans nominate worth and unobjectionable candidates for, these exalted positions. Tho "Times" still continues to slur the many Independent Democrats of Jackson county, who refuse to be led by the nose or dictated to by a few greedy little politicians, as "rag tags." The application of this term to citizens like Japob Ish, Ben Haymond, C. C. McOlendon, P. M. Plymale, C. Magru 4er, K. Kubli, John E. Ross, and a hundred more of tho old settlers of this county, by a young gentleman scarcely out of his teens, is not pecul iarly fitting, but it seems the best he can do and is considered part of the whipping in process. TjpifE? jh Douglass. The Repub lican County Convention of Douglas County met on Thursday last and nom inated tho following ticket: State Senators, Geo. W. Colvig, D. W. Stearns; Representatives, B. B. Brock way, D. S. K. Buick, F. M. Spencer and D. Montgomery; Clerk, Geo. W. Kimball; Sheriff, James "Wright; Treas urer, J. M. Hockelt base mix. "We hear so little of this eminently health giving, invigorating national pastime that we fear it and the Re public are sliding into decay. Perhaps it has been concluded that the muscles of tho American people have been suf ficiently developed, and the necessity for the more complete development of the muscles of locomotion, is making the "saw-dust" track more popular than the "field." "What a pity it will be if the day ever comes when the American youth will no longer return to their homes, with peeled noses, blis tered hands or cracked libs the laurels of this amusing and profitable pastime. Sad will be the hour when our young men congregate no longer on tho corners to idly discuss the "ins" and "outs" of the noble gamo, when they themselves, vote it work instead of play and voting it work bring it into national disreputo as an ignoble thing. Melancholy reflection ! that the hour mayevercome when ourboys be deprived of the only exercise, the only means of muscular development recognized as respectable and healthful. It is true, accidents happen well reg ulated families are not always without them well organized clubs are not always exempt. We have known youths go limping home so severely strained that they were unable to earn their living for weeks, but they were cared for by industrious parents and recovered. We have known an un lucky matron to-catch a btray ball on the "fly" and go home with a pain in the stomach, but she had the satisfac tion of knowing that she was not alone in ill luck. Is there no other hope, no .other outlet for the exuberance of youth? Only one that we know of but it is under the ban of disgrace. It combines muscular development and profit, the poetic lines of motion and the proud self-satisfaotion of utility. Let our boys resolve that base ball is "work" and it will be forsaken ; resolve that wood sawing is "play" and it will be honored by respectable popularity. This is the best substitute for base ball we know of and tho boy who can saw most wood will feel most proud of his usefulness. THK .NEW WAGON" KOAD. say that at the eeting on Saturday, nanimity o'f feel- topush the work.HBHP man' of our ' substantial farmers present, several of whom expressed themselves as v:lling to assist in the enterprise, which in our opinion is of more importance to Southern Oregon than any ever inaug urated. The saving of twenty dollars per ton on the immense freight coming into Jackson and Josephine counties, besides the increased value of our ex ports, by reason of cheap transporta tion to the sea board will be no small item, annually and when the road is completed it will give our people new life and energy. The rapidly increas ing rivalry between Portland and San I Francisco should prompt tho merchants of the latter city to assist us m open ing this thoroughfare, giving us a market for our own products, and affording us a short and easy line of transportation for our imports. Should they be shrewd enough to per ceive their advantage and lend a rea sonable amount of aid; the tribute of this rich section will always flow through the Golden Gate in spite of all competition. Portland merchants are reaohing out for our trade and offering tempting inducements. An expenditure of $10,000 is now being made on the road to Portland and if San Francisco values our trade- its merchants must do something toretain it. They will soon have an opportuni ty to subscribe or take stock in this road, at option, we have a right to ex pect that they will render some assist ance, and if they are wise they will give it. The cost of the road will hardly exceed 30,000 and it is thought, that if a fair cash bonus Is offered; a com pany will build and operate it as a toll road. Already, thirty per cent of the amount is secured but the larger the bonus is, the greater certainty there will be that the enterprise will be suc cessful. iioxr.sT to.Nrcssiox. As tho Democratic press of Oregon has failed to publish Hon. J. M. Thompson's letter, we deem it a duty to the public to give it entire in to day's issue. A careful perusal will show the people of Oregon how much they pay for Democratic Government, and a comparison of the facts exposed by an honest member of that party, and the hollow professions of its late convention wilj not be particular ad vantageous to it. Democracy on pa per is a beautiful and a lovely thing but its practical administration, accord fng to Mr. Thompson, is rather an ex pensive luxury i We will give the programme for the May-day celebration, at Beekman's Park, next week. "T to iiHiLLLW, liL. rHBirpose Messrs. Wrisley and Walker of Manzanita have just received a quan tity of the "Early Amber" sorghum' seed, sufficient to seed twenty acres. all of which they intend putting in. This is a commendable enterprise and we re gard it as the beginning of badly need ed progress among our agriculturists who have seemed to think that noth ing could be raised here but wheat. KELLOGG.
