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.
