THURSDAY FEBRUARY 21, 1895 STILL THE WONDER GREW.' i Sydney Dell asserts that the gold bags are baying all the newspapers ad vertising the free coinage of silver, for the sole and express purpose of prevent ing his, the said Sydney Dell's, disserta tions on finance in general, and silver in particular, from getting into print. Be ing refused space in the larger papers, Sydney advises the country press to. pass the "sieve" around, and re-print his letter to the president, from which the following is a clipping : "Sir, suppose. Japan in her thirot for conquest and lust for gold should levy, a billion 'lollars upon this Pacific slope, it would 'shake this 'nation from ocean to ocean. Five million armed .Yankee property holders and laborers would spring forth and efface that nation from the maps of the earth. You, however, aid the Kotbschilds, at the bead of a syndicate owning 100,000,000,000 in gold bonds, to annihilate fifty per cent of all the values in the union in twelve months, 30,000,000,000 of which is con fiscation pure and simple! Yet not a etiriamade; not a bugle call! Why? Because of ignorance ! The people slumber in fancied security upon the gold . coinage standard because they know not their trusted sentries the "leading prees" are manacled by you and the Rothschilds. The country press and small dailies are the only "free press" left to the people. Poor dumb slaves! Poor dumb months! "Were there one leading unfettered daily it could shake. this nation from ocean to ocean. "Gold rose four cents all over the world on your last bond issue, as re ducing the per capita of gold. The RochEcbilds will now force China to the gold standard. Serfdom and starvation are upon us, Mr. President. From where I write at this moment are seen eight bright, strong American mechan ics struggling for the job of cutting t cord of wood to save their families from starvation. "Caesar had his Brutus, Charles the Second his Cromwell," and Grover Cleveland should profit by their exam pie." It will be seen that Sydney thinks i levy of one billion of dollars on this coast by the Japanese, and "one leading unfettered daily," could each "shake this nation from ocean to ocean." And alaa ! poor Sydney ; from hia observa tory in Astoria he casts his starboard eye across the Pacific, and he sees China reduced to a gold standard by the Roth cnilds, and starvation following it, while his port orb sees in his neighbor's back yard eight Astoria carpenters Strug' gling for a job of sawiug wood. xne great trouoie witn bydney is that ever since he discovered in the democratic convention of 1886 that Pen noyer was a man, his hat has pinched him, and his megacephalous condition prevents his understanding that bin ar tides are refused space in the news papers because of their inanity. His mental vaporings are as sudoriferous as a eteam bath, and as weakening. "Caesar had his Brutus, Charles the Second his Cromwell," and Grover Cleveland his Sydney Dell. From which it will be seen that Caesar and Charles had a snap as compared to Grover. OUR GOVERNORS. A statement in The Chronicle Tues day that Lane was the first territorial governor of Oregon, brings from a reader the 'further statement just for the in formation of those who don't know which is all who have not looked it up tnat Abernetny was tne nrst governor tinder the provisional government. He was succeeded by Lane, who arrived at Portland, March 2, 1849. In company witn JLieut. winchell be bired a canoe and went to Oregon City, the Beat of government at that time, and on. March 3d issued bis proclamation as governor, He was succeeded in the governor'! office by Gaines, in Taylor's administra tion. Gaines was followed by Davis, but the local democracy, who were just as lusty kickers then as now, objected to an ' Eastern man being appointed and made it so uncomfortable for Davis that he resigned, and Curry, who was territorial secretary, became acting governor. John Whittaker was elected at the time the constitution was adopted and was the first governor of the state, Gibba followed in 1862 ; Woods in 1866 ; Grover in 1870, being re-elected m 1874, but be ing elected senator Chadwick became governor, Thayer was elected in 1878, Moody in 1882, Pennoyer in x886 and Lord in 1894. FREDERICK DOUGLASS BEAD. Frederick Douglass, the well-known colored orator, died suddenly of heart disease at his residence in Anacostia, op posite Washington, at 7 o'clock last night. Mr. Douglass had just completed bis 78th year. After bis many vicissitudes be died in seemingly excellent health, not many miles distant from the county on the eastern shore of Maryland, where he was born a slave in February, 1817. His death was entirely unexpected, as he had been enjoying good health. During the afternoon be attended the. convention of the women of the United States, and chatted with Susan B. An thonv and others of the leading mem bers, with whom he had been on inti mate terms for many years. When he returned home he said that he had nothing indicating any feeling of illness, although he appeared to be a little ex hausted from the climb up the steep flight of steps leading from the street to the house, which is on a high terrace. He sat down and chatted with his wife about the women at the convention, telling various things that had been said and done. Suddenly he gasped, clapped his hand to his heart and fell back un conscious. A doctor was nastily sum moned and arrived within a very few moments, but the efforts to revive Fred Douglass were fruitless from the first. Within 20 minutes after the attack, the faint motion of his heart ceased entirely and the great ex-slave and statesman was dead. Douglass leaves two sons and daughter, children of Mb first wife. His second wife, who was a white woman survives him. Mr. Brooks calls our attention to the history of the first legislature of this state, just by way of comparison with the present one. It met May 1st, lasted three days and enacted laws enough to amply provide for carrying on the busi ness of the country. The members voted themselves $1.25 per day and board, and the entire expense of the session was $67.50. Bay City, Mich., furnished a remark able example of Christian unity last week, in the form of a joint meeting, of Protestants and Catholics. On the platform were six Catholic priests and twelve Protestant ministers, besides hundred representative citizens of many creeds and denominations. The meet ing opened with the repeating of the Lord's Prayer and ended with the sing ing of "America," and the object of de termining the possibility of Christian fellowship and harmony seemed satis factorily obtained in the delightful fra ternal spirit that prevailed, Signal.
