JACKSONVILLE:
Saturday, apbil 1, 18321
KKTTEK FROM J08EFBME.
Wilderville, March 24th, 1882.
Ed. SexthJel: "A word to you my
looy." The name of this town when
contrasted with the beautiful feminine
name of the county, in which it is sit
uated, impresses the mind of the trave
ler,(before seeing it) that it must be a
lively, wideawake and rushing town.
But on getting here, it reminds him of
a weak and feeble invalid with little
hope of convalescence. I find the coun
ty very broken and sparsely settled,
and very little interest taken in this
part of it, to develop its agriculture,
horticultural, or its stoik raising fa.
cilities by its mosi primitive settlers.
Their farms, and donation claims do
not blossom muchly like the rose, and
their fences and buildings seem to have
become disheartened through utter
neglect. A school teacher's association
is being held here this week and quite
a.fair representation of intelligent look
ing ladies and gentlemen has gathered
in from the vallejs and hillsides and a
lively and commendable interest seems
to be taken in the cause of education.
This afternoon while the teachers and
more civilized citizens hereabout were
earnestly engaged in discussing ways
and means to encourage and build up
the good cause, two of.the old settlers
made some native fun for a lot of idle
lounging boys outside, by taking a lit
tle turn on the green. One of them
we heard was a Bull, but the other fel
low capsized the insolent old toro, who
came out third or fourth best and
looked as if he had fallen from a tree
and struck on his physiognomy ou a
stone pile. Traveler.
Ballrond News.
It is currently reported that within
thirty days there will bo a force of at
least five thousand Chinese at work
Bouth of Roseburg. There are atpresent
over one thousand and all the piling
and 6roall bridgeing is finished to Myr
tle Greek and work will soon begin on
the large bridge across the South Ump
qua. It is now thought that the road
will be finished and in running order
to "Jump off Joe" by next winter.
The Portland Mercury says: Judge
"Willis of Roseburg, reeeived the con
tract on Friday frotn the O. it C. R..Bi
Co. to furnish all the timber to be used
in the extension from Roseburg. The
contract will reach nearly 20,000,000
feet and amouat to about $500,000.
Judge "Willis purchased two steam saw
mills in the city and will ship them to
their destination. Whenever the tim
ber is exhausted where they first lo
eate,rthec mill will be moved to better
neighborhoods. Hon. Sol Abrahams
ia security for the f ullfilment of the
contract. He and Judge Willis own
all the timber land on which they are
about to operate. The contract will
necessitate the employment of a large
number of hands. It could not have
been awarded to more responsible and
reliable gentlemen. It is the intention
of. the. railroad company to press the
work as much as possible and complete
a goodly portion of tho line this year.
Admission or Washington.
The Congressional Committee on
Territories have recommended the pas
sage of the bill to admit "Washington
Territory as a state. Tho bill is amend
ed so as to leave off the portion of Idaho
the inhabitants of which desired to be
annexed to Washington. The report
of. the committee shows that Oregon,
at the next census, a year after her ad
Mission had a population of only 52,
465 while the census of 1880 gives
Washington 75,116. It also shows
that the Territory is out of debt with
a. eurpln of $22,217.94 in the treasury
and a tax of only 2 mills. As the
TerriUry has a Republican majority
the vote on admission will be a strict
party one but as it is stated that David
Davis favored the admission of Dakota
under like political conditions Wash
ington will probably bo admitted to
the sisterhood by a closo vote and
there is no just reason why she should
not be.
A writer in the Albany "Herald"
asks if the Republicans of Southern
Oregon desire Mr. Beekman for Gov.
ernor. We can only answer that Mr.
Beekman is the first choice in this end
of the State and point to the remarka
ble vote he received in Jackson county,
fonr years since,, as an earnest of his
acceptability. We believe that Mr.
Beekman is really the choice of the
Republican party throughout the whole
Btate and if the convention represents
the party honestly he will bo nominat
ed. If, on the contrary, it is captured
by political intriguers he will not and
the nomination will be given to- some
one craving office more than he and
willing to do dirty work for it.
ADTICE-JfOT DICTATION.
"The Republican papers have Been
captured by Congressman George, and
contrary to aH precedent,, they are
nearly unanimously at work advocat
ing his nomination. This duty has
heretofore devolved upon the conven
tion, but the organs seem to dictate in
his case what the convention should do."
The above, from the Portland "Stan
dard" is true, only so far as it points
to a unanimity on the part of the Re
publican press of Oregon regarding
Mr. George's re-nomination. Thepress
has not been "captured" by Mr. George
but is, so far as he is concerned, mere
ly a reflex of the feeling in the party.
There is a general conviction that we
have a useful and honorable represen
tative in Congress whose sole ambition
is to discharge his trust for the benefit
of the whole commonwealth and, thus
far, he has been a credit to his constit
uency. There is a growing sentiment
against changing public servants in
positions they are eminently qualified
to fill and where their services are val
uable in proportion to their experience.
It is the knowledge of the wide appre
ciation of Mr. George's honorable pri
vate character and his fidelity to his
public duty that prompts the press,
with a singular unanimity, to point out
to the convention that safety and suc
cess will bo the result of his re-nomination
and that his recall, just at the
time he has reached an eminence never
before reached by a representative of
Oregon, would be an act of folly and
an injustice both to the State and to
the gentleman himself. The office of
representative is not one for individual
benefit to be bandied about among
needy political hacks like a foot ball.
It is one where the character, the in
terests, the voice of the whole people
of Oregon are concentrated in a single
individual and if our young Congress
man is accepted as a fair type of the
people he represents, the eastern States
may well be proud of their western
sister. Mr. George has obtained a
position on the committee of Com
merce, a position of the highest im
portance, never before accorded to
Oregon, and he is where ho can render
the most effective service. If the con
vention decide to recall him tho act
will be equivalent to a declaration that
we want no representation on that
committee and will be a mistake fatal
to the best interests of the State.
FBEE TBADE OU PUOTECTIOX.
Which is itjxhat ie "CtregojiianJl
advocates? "Hot or cold with the
same breath" seems to be the rule of
that paper and it is somewhat amusing
to observe the inconsistencies of its
various positions. Drifting with pop
ular opinion it has been opposed to
Chinese labor when performed on
American soil but demands free trade
in all foreign commodoties knowing
that "free trade" would build up man
ufactories in China whose products
could and would, if admitted free of
duty, drive American artisans to the
wall. Free trade means univertal
competition, protection to nothing
and yet this sheet continually opposes
the opening of the upper Columbia to
free navigation; so that a railroad cor
poration may have an exclusiye monop
oly of the carrying trade of tho Colum
bia basin. It sneers at tho possibility
of a railroad from Yaquina bay to the
center of the Willamette valley and
tries to break down tho credit of the
company by a wise prediction that it
will never realize interest on the in
vestment; for fear a dollar will be
drawn away from Portland. It
preaches free trade in one breath as a
blessing and confesses in the next that
the experiment in that direction with
the Sandwich Islands is a curse. It
denounces protection of any kind as
the greatest of evils but sticks to its
monopoly of the press dispatches know
ing that without that protection it
would die of its own greatness just as
Julius Ceasar and Daniel Lambert did.
When that paper, that assumes the
right to speak for the people of Ore
gon, ceases its attacks ou the Oregon
Pacific and the Cascade locks and re
linquishes its monopoly of press dis
patches so that other papers may com
pete with it, it may then talk free trade
with a good grace and apparent sin
cerity. Until it does the public will
only laugh at its vagaries and under
stand that it is only its own friend and
can blow "hot or cold" whenever its
intrests demand either.
Hon. D. P. Thompson, Mayor of
Portland, declines the nomination for
Governor by a card in the "Oregonian".
We know of no other man in Oregon
better fitted for the executive office
than Mr. Thompson and his services in
the Legislative investigation of 1878
should be held ingrateful remembrance.
The office that he now holds is of equal
importance with that of Governor and
his own business demands on bis time
have prompted him to the declination
of a position offering no additional hon
or and involving actual .pecuniary loss
to the person filling it.
The Chinese BUI.
Speaking of the Chinese bill the S.
P. "Chronicle" says: "The bill passed
the House without amendment, all
those offered being promptly rejected.
The amendments made in the Senate
covered all tho points which had been
thought weak and doubtful. That
extending the time when the law is to
bpcome operative to ninety days was a
needless concession to corporate in
fluence, but where everything else is so
satisfactory we feel little disposition to
complain. Grover's provision forbi
ding naturalization was a wise a:
thoughtful amendment. It was al
well to define tho term "Chinese la'
orers" to mean those skilled and t
skilled, and those working in min
The bill, in the form in which it w
go to the President, provides that fi
twenty years after it becomes operati
thero shall be no immigration
Chinese laborers into the United State;
and prescribes a fine not to excer
$500, and a term of imprisonment n
to exceed one year, as the punishme:
of any master of a vessel that sh
bring them. Prom the operation
the law there are only excepted m
chants, teachers, students, travel
diplomatic agents, and Chinese labor
who were in the country previous
November 17. 1881, all of whi
classes must be properly identified
passports duly executed by the Chin
authorities, and countersigned by I
representatives of the United Stat
residing in China. It is in form
that any friend of California has
right to ask, and there is no appare
reason why it should not accompli
all that is expected of it."

for the following reasons:
1. More euro is taken in tho selection
ot stock; only good, solid butt-cut timber
being nsctl.
2. The ft heels are all soaked In Boil

'S. Every jmrt is strongly braced ; and
instead of bcinsr bolted, is clipped so that
the full strength of the wood is secured.
4. The Tires arc securely bolted, afUr
being thoroughly and carefully set.
5. The Skeins arc heated before driven
on, and set in White Lead; consequently,
when cooled, contract, making a perfect
fit and imposiblf to work loose.
It is the only Wagon on which "Holmes'
