OREGON SENTINEL.
JACKS';. YIXLK t
Saturday, T4nuaht 21, 1882.
THEANTI HO.XOrOLV TAttTr.,
Tt is true that Anti-Monopoly is one
i f tho principal dogmas of Democratic
faith, and so is Free Trade, yet Monop
olist Democrats oppose these teachings
-quite as numerously as Republicans de
fend them. "Portland Standard."
The above admission is. forced, un
willingly, from our northern contem
porary by the SsstriSKL.that has prod
ded the shaggy lion of Democracy un
til it howls with pain. The Sentinel
only fired a blank cartridge, and is
properly, "perhaps, but discourteously,
certainly, called a flippant paper by the
city daily. We are sorry that a harm
less fusilade should have frightened the
Standard and ruffled, its usually, equa
ble temper, but if it prefers solid shot
better it can have it. The Sentinel
now challenges the Standard to show
when, how, where and to what extent,
any National Democratic leader ever
espoused the anti-monopoly cause.
Wasjt when James Buchanan vetoed
thelTomestead bill, 'subsequently passed
by a Republican congress and signed
by Abraham Lincoln against tho dic
tum of Southern land monopolists?
Was it when Belmont, long Chair
man of the National Democratic Cen
tral Committee, stood at the head of
National bankers and bondholders and
made war against the three per cent
funding billl Was it when a Democrat
ic Legislature robbed the Oregon School
fund of 200,000 and put it into the
pockets of two Democratic capitalists,
together with a monopoly of the port
age at tho Willamette falls; when tho
the People's Transportation Company
offerod to do the same work for$125,
000? Was it when a Democratic Legis
lature by an iniquitous "Pilot" law
robbed the Oregon farmers of several
cents, per bushel,, on their wheat by
permitting exorbitant charccs, through
a monopoly of pilotage? When did the
Democratic party place itself on record
as the champion o anti-monopoly?
Was it when it espoused, the cause of
Tilden who has grown rich by feeding
on "monopoly"? Was it during the
.time that party were in a majority, in
both House and Senate, during the
pasb few. jears, that it was placed on
record as an anti-monopoly party?
Perhaps it was when it passed the in
fainoua swamp land act in Oregon;
when Democratic members of the leg
islature were ready to absorb millions
t -of Jual -n-ith their "filings' te
fore the ink of the Democratic Govern
or's approving signature was dry? The
Standard . ought to know where its
proof is; before making a broad asser
tion on so narrow a foundation
and;, if it can kick out bankers,
railroad magnates, steamship princes,
manufacturing millionaires and aristo
cratic seekers after office from the ranks
of Democracy it may then claim that
it is an "auti-monopoly" party.
TUliLAAD UK A XT.
Representative George will endeav
or, in the present congress, to prevent
the forfeituro of all "unearned"' rail
road grants until January 1883. This
includes tho grant of the N. P. and O.
& C. railroads neither of which have
been earned; on account of the finan
cial embarrassments of the respective
companies and their consequent inabil
ity to build. So far as the O. &. C. is
concerned, no loss will bo sustained by
the government, or by the settler, in
consequence of a three years extension
of the grant which, at least, can have
only a prospective value. Many years
since, tho best lands embraced in this
grant were taken by settlers and small
speculators, who left only rugged and
mountainous timbered lands for the
company. These lauds, without a rail
road, are comparatively worthless and
unsaleable, and a road built through
them will give those reserved by the
government some value and insure their
future sale. We happen to know the
character of the land embraced in this
grant and do not speak at random;
when we say that it is totally unfit for
agriculture and, in its prespnt isolated
condition, almost valueless. If the
grant were laid on lands susceptible of
Eettlemennt and adapted to successful
agriculture we should hope for the for
feiture, of the fcrant, as no railroad com
pany ought to ask a subsidy for build
ing through a country capable of a
dense and productive settlement As
the whole country, along the line from
Roseburg to Redding is just the reverse
and as it is by no fault of the present
company that the road is not built, we
hope the time will be extended and the
grant secured to it if it will hasten the
building of the road or do the company
any good.
It is reported that tho new steamer
Walla Walla will be sent from Port
land to Hongkong with flour, and re
turn with 1,000 Chinese to work on
tho North Pacific railroad.
INI I. IIP W
That Old Land Stent.
A communication from Mr. Jay
Beach points to the probable object of
a bill, introduced in Congress, to
change the boundaries of the Klamath
Indian reservation. The- bill is evi
dently drawn in the interest of the
"Oregon Central Military Road Com
pany,, and if it does not contain a clause
specially excluding that company from
.its benefits it should not become a.
law. That company are not entitled
to any land from the Klamath marsh
to the eastern boundary of the state
for the very simple reason that they
never built any road but merely mapp
ed it, after running a chain over the
ground they desired granted. Some
years ago a bill was introduced in Con
gress indemnifying this company for
land they 'claimed to have lost by
running their "paper road" through
the reservation but it was defeated by
the Sentinel, earnestly aided by tho
Tidings, the Yreka Journal and the in
fluence of several other California pa
pers. This paper took the same grounds
then as now; that it was a steal the
only difference being; tho former was
a steal from the settler, any where in
Oregon-,, the latter an attempted steal
from the Indians that ought not to be
permitted. As for the Indian policy
spoken of in Mr. Beach's communica
tion if the Indian is willing to take
his land "in sevralty," improve and
utilize it, as a white man would, he
should be encouraged in such a course
which would ultimately enable him to
support himself. This idea seems to
be gaining ground with the friends of
Indians more than that; of massing the
various tribes on a few large reserva
tions and its pratical result would be
to sever his tribal relations and force
him to feel his own individuality and
understand its responsibility.
Match Monopoly.
The St. Louis Globe Democrat has
discovered that the "Diamond Match
Co." a corporation next to the "Stand
ard Oil Co." has quietly purchased all
the match factories in the United
States and now enjoys an exclusive
monopoly. So great is their business
that in 1881, this company paid the
government 4,500,000 for stamps
Now what is to be done about it? It
must be apparant that overy household
in this ftee land is at the mercy of a
"cruel and grasping monopoly" that, at
any moment, might quench the lire on
every American hearth and, through
the right'to purchase and tho money to
,purchasewith, force man to gay an ad
"Uitional half cent per box ,for his
matches or become a non cooking ani
mal. The Sentinel is unable to sue
gesta remedy and respectfully refers the
matter to the "Statesman" and "Stand
ard." Let them but raise their mighty
voices and demand that every factory,
bought by the wicked monopoly, be re
turned to its original owner so as to
force competition and it will be done at
once. The Sentinel confesses to crude
ideas on the monopoly subject, unre
fined by the atmosphere of the Capitol
or the Metropolis. We had imagined
that it was but the out-crop of a nat
ural desire to accumulate and, we sin
cccely believe, if either of the above
papers were offered a monopoly of the
press dispatches they would willingly
crucify anyone who disputed their
sacred right to enjoy it. The vapor
ings of these papers is mere stuff and
our intimation that it was a simple
bait to catch votes as we are sorry to
perceive, excited them to unseemly and
discourteous anger. They may regain
their temper while cracking the "matcTi
monopoly nut," and meanwhile we will
wait and see "what theyr'e going to do
about it." Our suggestion is: that the
anti-monopoljsts, who love the people
so dearly, buy these factories, back and
have them operated for the public ben
efit. Hot Tiuc.
An exchange says: "There is but one
thing in all the universe to which n
man is always faithful and which he
never forgets, and that is himself."
There was never a greater mistake
than this often repeated statement.
-Lwo-thirds of the sickness, povertv.
want ana misery of human family are
the result of forgetting to be faithful
to ones-self. Many people who are
faithful to others," habitually expose
themselves to wet and cold, to all man
ner of nedless hardships, and squander
their own means, sowing the seeds of
sickness, misery and poverty. Man
always faithful to himself and mindful
of his interests! Nonsense. Hospit
als, poorhouses and jails, in every land
and in every age, are standing wit
nesses that he is not. It. would be
better for humanity if the statement
were true, but unfortunately it is not.

LAKE COt.YTV COUKCSro.MIClCE.
The "Rural Spirit," of a recent date,
referring to the introduction into Con
gress of a bill proposing to restore a
portion of Klamath Indian Reserva
tion to settlement, says: "it should be
approved' and the writer, thinking,
perhaps, that the editor has said this
much without a proper knowledge of
facts upon which to base a decision,
asks the privilege of presenting to the
readers of the "Spirit" such facts as
may seem necessary to a fair statement
of the question, and of adding a few
opinions, which, it is believed, are sub
stantially these of the best citizens of
this section of country immediately
joining the reservation. The views of
these people have been neither asked
nor sought, by the projectors of the
bill in question, while the stealthy,
underhand, manner in which the bill
itself has been brought forward; has
aroused within them the suspicion; that
the Military Wagon Road Land Co.,
having failed in their former schemes,
are again after these lands working
under a revised system of tactics.
Now; as to whether this bill, as the
"Spirit" says, "should be approved,"
depends entirely upon its provisions.
This land was secured to the Indians,
who have faithfully fulfilled their part
of the compact, by treaty of 1864, and
if it is now proposed to reclaim it up
on terms not entirely satisfactory to
tho Indians themselves, then it is
simply a paltry, inexcusable steal.
That tho bill contemplates no treaty of
this kind, seems evident from the fact
that no recent consultation, on the sub
ject, has been held with the Indians
the last one, of a few years ago, having
proven an entire failure. As to the
M. W. R. Land Co., it has been amply
proven by investigation, that the
United States was defrauded of mott
of the large grant it owns; while the
statement; that quite a large body of
this "grant lies in this portion of the
reservation that is to be restored to
"public domain," (M. W. R. L. Co?)
will more clearly show the relationship
of this company to the proposed
scheme of restoration. So much for
the minor points of the case.
Now; for tho justice of it. These
Indians are, as a class, thrifty and in
dustrious; are fencing portions of their
lands, and engaging in raising stock,
one individual with whom the writer
is acquainted, having over 100 head of
stock cattle after selling his beef steers.
Abyut 150 of these Indians under
Sconchin, brother to the one hung with
Captain- -Xaolr, -arc AI0J0C3 rhoTT
fused to join Captain Jack in the Lava
Beds, because they believed our gov
ernment would reward them for their
fidelity. Capt. Jack, in pleading for
their co-operation, told them that tho
white man would taku these lands, too,
from them, and even now his prophesv
seems on the verge of fulfillment.
Thank heaven, ho was hung for the
treacherous betrayal, and murder of
Gen. Canby, and not for a heroic
struggle to preserve his people from
the ignominious fate which even then
appeared within the range of his keen
prophetic vision, else what a tragic
satire might have ben recorded in the
annals of our history. Capt. Jack,
however, refused to live on lands he
had in treaty stipulated to live upon,
and is, therefore, not entitled to our
sympathy, but the proposition to dis
possess the remaining Modocs nnder
Sconchin, ought to bring a flush of
bhame to the cheek of a brazen image.
Finally, all of the Indians on Klamath
reservation have been loyal friends and
faithful allies of tli6 whites; their land
the mildest and most valuable por
tion of which is now sought to be
taken from them lies at an altitude
of from 4,500 to 7000 ft. above sea
level, is too frosty for agriculture, and
only adapted to stock-raising. Regard
ing the charge that too much land ''per
capita" is allowed them, I will only say
that the reservation is, proportionately,
as thickly settled as tho balance of our
country, and is producing about as
much as it would under white settle
ment' All stock men, acquainted with
our grazing country, realize the absurd
ity of attempting a living by raising
stock within the narrow confines of a
qnarter section of land, and were these
lands thrown open to settlement, thev
would soon be in the hands of a few.
If an attempt be made to remove these
Indians by force, the writer hero regis
ters the prediction that every acre will
cost a hundred dollars to say nothing
of a priceless sacrifice of blood," while
the Indian, warned by our act of
treachery, will be on the alert for new
aggressions, till from a law-alidin,'
ward of the government, he will become
a dangerous, insidious foe, and a terror
to our citizens. Our present Indian
policy cosists mainly in the attempt to
christianize and civilize the Indian in
brief to encourage him to become like
the white man, is the ruling motive of
our government. That this unique and
practical lesson in land grabbing, shall
be with-held until he has reached a
higher piano of civilization, is the ear
nest prayer of the subscriber.
