®OI SEHTIHEL. JACKWXV IL.UK i 8lTTO9.LT, FkBRUAHT 19, 188L IK. SKTCHEXA JOB TUX BETtBLICA TJIETT. The course of the Sextixel with re gird to ex-Sen&tor Mitchell has given effcace to one single subscriber, in Port.ls.nd once quite prominent in Oregon politics, and we have received xotice that this paper is no longer fit reading for him. This is fair and to the point, and we have no quarrel with the individual who honestly differs iritk bc in opinion. The reason given it, that we are "sowing dissension in the Republican party by bnilding Mr. Mitchell np," while it never seems to lave occurred to the offended subscrib er that it is jest as easy to "sow dis- easioa in the party'' by pulling Air. Mitchell, or any other prominent JBeaober, down. But, Mr. Mitchell re trains no "building up" as he is very r able to take car of himself. Ho is sJ( in pablic life- nor, so far as we know jjpjijjjjdMate for cay public position. 2Tor, hasMr. Mitchtll, or indeed any other Republican journal ist or politician, individual cl2fms on the party that will be allowed to Jeopardize party success. Mr. Mitch ell's relation to- the Republican party k such that leaves an obligation on neither side. By the vote of a Repub can Legislature he received the highest honor that could be given by the pro- pie of Oregon. He toot his seat in the Senate under circumstances that would have made the bravest of his preseat assailants quail in abject terror. The beginning of his Senatorial career was clouded by the resurrected history of early domestic troubles and private errors partly true and partly false twisted, exaggerated and distorted into a semblance of criminality by his en emies. He rose above the storm by his own force, so high, that he left the Sexale as chairman of one of its most important committees a position rarely reached during the first term of a Senator in Congress. So far, the account between Mr. Mitchell and his party is evenly balanced. It gave him honor; he served it wtll by rendering able, untiring and efficient service to his State; and, notably so. at the sac liGce of his own private fortune. "Whether the account is to be re-opened k not for Mr. Mitchell to say, nor do re- understand that he says so. Whether it is to be forever closed is left to the dictation of any to a majority of its representatives at the proper time and place. It must be admitted that the Republican party k composed of material that will not submit to "bossism" and it is a quite safe proposition that no one individual, aor no one journal can assume the control of the party with a better show f success than a single subscriber may expect in dictating the policy of a aewspaper. It strikes us, however, that those who antagonize Mr. Mitch ell thus early are quite too fast: as it k by no means certain that the Re publicans of Oregon will hare the pow er to elect any one to the Senate in JboZ, and when the power is secured it will be time enough to decide who shall be its representative. ' Mr. Mitchell's early history is now no body's business but hk own and those inclined to stone him should see that their own shirts are clean before weighing him by a self established standard of morality. As for the Sextutel, Jt k trader no obligations to the ex-Senator, nor he to it. This paper has done no more for him than it will do for any prominent member f the Republican party. It estimates sen by their actual worth, just as the world does, not by what they have been and in a spirit of fairness and justice will resent any attach on anr respectable member of the Republican parrr if. in rmr nrnmnri ; fr -f- prompted by a proper spirit and divest ed of all private motives. In conclu faon, we have to say that it must be thought that Mr. Mitchell k very formidable, indeed when it is thought advisable, so far in advance of a Sen atorial Section, to sow dissension in the parry in order to insure his certain defeat by sacrificing the party itself. Many of the leading journals of New York advocate Bergh's bill, providing a whipping post for wife beaters. Mr. Bergh has at last discovered that some animals require castigation, for nothing but a "beast" in human form would whip hk wife. Hdredge of the Del Norte Record has purchased the Courier office and the publication of tie latter will be dkeontinued. We congratulate Bra Udredge and expect to see the Record The Daily 'Evening Chronicle k to be the sew candidate for public favor in PertlsxcL It k to be Republican in politics. Bo&j Brined JUbrc Monday afternoon Jan. 17th, says the Port Orford Post, the body of a man came ashore near the mill wharf and was first discovered by Nellie, the Indian woman stoppiug in the house near the mill, and who notified Capt Lorentzen of what she had discovered. The Captain procured assistance and carried the corpse to hk warehouse, where it was viewed by a large number of our citizens. The body wixthatof a tall man apparently about 30 years of. age. Not a particle of hair was left on the head or beard on the face, though the corpse was, in other re spects intact; save that the nose and lips were much distorted by contact with hard substances as it floated along. The body measured full six feet, and the only vestige of clothing left upon it except a pair of No. 9 stoga boots, was the waistband of a pair of brown duct pants fringed with a few remain ing threads of that garment The soles of the boots were thickly studded with nails which fact led to the con clusion that the man could not haye been a sailor. Two fingers were want- ins on tie right hand, leaving but the index finger and the adjoining. The fingers had apparently been amputated years since, np to or past where they joined the hand. Under and a little to the right of the chin was a deep knife wound, which circumstances leads to the conclusion that the man had been murdered. The most reason able conjecture as to where the body came from seems to be that it must have floated down Rogue river with the freshet, and was then wafted up to ihk place by the southerly winds which prevailed. A rather singular feature of the affair is, that the body was so little mutilated. The corpse was buried under the direction of Capt. Lorentzen, Thursday morning. The Del Norte Record of the 29th 'has the fallowing: On last Mondav night the wind commenced to blow from the South, which-continued wiih more or less rain until Thursday night, when it broke forth with a fury un surpassed during the present winter. The schconer J. G. Wall, which had been lying near the end of the wharf, rode out the gale until yesterday morning, when she parted her stern line, which caused her to swing around and plunged into the wharf. She cxrried away a portion of it and struck the rock on the opposite side smashing her up badly. She then pitched into the wharf again, and for the second t'- JiaSfcc' iitonj1" - J !'""" "' damaged thereby that she immediately filled with water. Every exertion was made by the Captain, crew and thosp on the wharf to save the vessel, but she drifted about completely at the mercy of the elements, and finally came on shore nearly in front of Darbv Jb Donovan's saloon. At the time of going te press we are unable to make any estimate of the damage done, but know that it must be great Her bottom is doubtless badly stove in, and her bow is carried away, also her rudder and a portion of the keel in the after-part She lies at present deeply embedded in the sand. The Mining and Scientific Press mentions a valuable improvement in steel bars for drills. The bars are cor rugated in form with three, four or five cross sections and in speaking of the improvement the Press says: The construction of drill steel pro duces a,piece accurate in cross section, so that it can be worn up its entire legnth without reforging. It consists of a blank rolled from a bar of steel, without forging cr swagging. The steel bar, cut to proper length, is rolled into the form desired, ready, when taken in hand by the smith, to" form a complete drill for use by adding a shank thereto; and having the same contour through its entire lemgth, it can be used until it k worn up to the shank without any chance of form. Our Erprrtentallre. We hear from Washington that Hon. M. C. George, who will represent Oregon in the 47th Congress, is fast becoming familiar with the business of the departments and obtaining knowledge, that vill enable bjm to render his State service. He has al ready procured the establishment of a mail route between Prineville and Camp Harney, a service very much needed, and his success indicates that Mr. George will prove to be a valu ab'e public servant, s.wake to all the interests of Oregon. Justice at last scores one in the game of murder, so popular in San Francisco. The other player was only the clumsy wretch Wheeler, who stran gled his wife's skter because ht loved her; a man without social position, wealth or friends, and Justice had him at a disadvantage. Having won a game at last, perhaps the blind goddess k in luck and the public will anxiously awidt the remit of that now being played in the courts between her and Kalloch, the slayer of Charles De Young. Cite The Women a Chance. The woman suffrage question is be coming so prominent that it can not be ignored without disrespect to many well meaning people. There k a question, however, to be settled before that of right or expediency, do the .women of Oregon desire suffrage In order to ascertain this tact they should be permitted to vote at the next gen eral election for or against the ques tion of female suffrage and should a majority of females, over twenty one, enumerated by the late census express a desire to- be invested with the full right of franchise it will practically settle the question. Provision for a separate box to recieve the ballots of women could be provided by the County courts of the various counties and if a majority of the women of Oregon vote in favor of female suffrage there will be no trouble whatever, in amending the constitution, as no fair man will oppose it under such cir cumstances. Besides it would enable the ladies to show how they would conduct themselves at the polls and they would undoubtedly put the best foot foremost Jnrj' Doty- There k scarcelj any thing in mod. era civilization showingsuch an extraor dinary, antithesis as our jurisprudence and the uual method of selecting juries. As law becomes more complex and farther beyond the common, intelligent understanding, there is a greater de. mand for ignorance on the part of ju rors; and that they should know noth ing, except that told them by opKsing counsel. It is so hard now to get men for jury duty in whose minds no intel ligent seed is sown, that, ere long, newspapers will havo to be suppressed or a certain per cent of the popula tion forbidden to learn to read and write so that they may be eligible as jurors, and enabled to poise the scales of justice with a nicety that cannot be disturbed by the knowedge of anything not told them by the lawyers.
