EDWARD D. BAKER.
Oregon conferred honor upon herself
when she sent Edward D. Baker, the
warrior statesman, to the United States
senate. Baker's memory has been kept
alive in the traditions of the state, and
the following sketch of his life career,
which is tnken in a:i abbreviated form
from the St. Louis Globe-Democrat,
cannot fail to be of interest to Orego
nians. Baker was one of the West's
greatest men.
The circuit court at Springfield, El.,
from 1835 to 1840 represented a remark
able measure of future judicial and po
litical distinction. Stephen T. Logan
was the presiding judge4 Stephen A.
Dcujlas was the prosecuting attorney,
'and the bar included such men as Abra
ham Lincoln ; O. H. Browning, Samuel
H. Teat, John J. Hardin, Lyman Trum
bull, Cyrus Walker, and Edward D.
Baker. These men were all good public
speakers in their several ways, but
the surpassing orator among them
was Baker. He was an Englishman by
birth, whose parents had come to Amer
ica when he was 4 years of age, locating
, in Philadelphia, from whence be had
drifted out to Illinois in 1825, bsing then
a boy of 14. For several 3-eara he sup
ported himself by manual labor, arid de
voted all his spare time to study, with
the determination to qualify himself ior
a professional career. He first became
an exhorter in the Christian church, at
tracting marked attention by the earn
estness and picturesqueness of his style;
and then he concluded to become a law
yer, which meant also a politician. Hia
services were in general demand on ac
count of his influence with juriee, and
liia reputation was increased by the
stamp speeches : that be was always
ready to deliver. His ambition was
restless and far-reaching, and he missed
so opportunity to extend his acquaint
ance and to put' himself in the way of
official preferment.
The greatest of Baker's orations, and
one of the greatest ever delivered by
anybody, was that which the death of
his friend, David C. Broderick, called
forth. It will be remembered that
Broderick was killed by Judge Terry in
duel in 1859 ; and Baker was chosen by
common consent to pronounce the eulogy
which was a part of what he called "the
mournful tribute which the majesty of
the people offer to the unreplying dead."
He spoke ot "the senator lying dead be
fore us" as a man who "toiled with his
own hands, and sprang at a bound from
the workshop to the . legislative hall," a
man of simple habits and sterling integ
rity who was pursued with relentless
bitterness by his political enemies, but
who never flinched for a moment in
"the great struggle for the rights of the
people against the despotism of organi
zation and the corruption of power
TliB manner of his death, "tangled in
the meehes of the code of honor," was
dwelt upon by the orator with a pas
sionate protest against the practice of
dueling, which he characterized as "a
shield emblazoned with 'the name of
chivalry to cover the malignity of mur
der." Its boasted equality he declared
to be a lie. In reality, he said, "it suh
Btitutes cold and deliberate preparation
for courageous and manly, impulse, and
and arms the one to disarm the .other."
In closing he exclaimed, "But the last
Word must be spoken, the imperious
mandate of death must be fulfilled
Thus, oh, brave heart, we bear thee to
thy rest. Thus, surrounded by tens of
thousands, we leave thee to the equal
' 'grave. As in life no other voice so rung
its trumpet blast upon the ear of free
dom, so in death its echoes will rever
Tserate amid our mountains and valleys
until truth and valor cease to appeal to
the human heart. Hail and farewell!"
Soon after the death of Broderick,
Baker removed to Oregon, where his
reputation had preceded him, and he
was elected to the United States senate.
He returned to California in 1860, on his
way to Washington, proud and happy
over the victory that bad been the ulti
mate ambition of his life. They gave
him a big receptiou. at San Francisco,
and he delivered a speech that could
never be forgotten by those who heard it.
While performing his duty as a sena
tor, Baker found time to organize what
was known as the California regiment,
and was made its colonel. He fre
, quently entered the senate to deliver a
1 Speech with, bis uniform, oa ; and whea
the special session ended, August 6, he
hastened to the front, eager for the
fray. His regiment was assigned to the
division of Gen. Stone in the army of the
Potomac, and he was placed in com
mand of a brigade. On the 21st of Oc
tober, he was ordered to made a recon
nois6ance across the Potomac, and it
turned out to be the awful blunder of
Ball's Bluff. His troops were caught in
a trap, and a large proportion of them
killed, wounded and captured ; and he
himself fell, pierced with six bullets.
The disaster wa3 partly hia own fault,
but his bravery condoned ha indiscre
tion, and history has tenderly placed his
name in the list of heroes. His death
was one of the first great sorrows of the
war to Lincoln, who had so long ad
mired his ability and prized his friend
ship. His body was taken to California
and buried near the tomb of Broderick ;
but Illinois and Oregon may also claim
a share in nis lame, ana U;e wnoie
country owes homage to his memory as
of a signally brilliant orator, a capable
and worthy statesman, and a citizen
whose impulses and tendencies were all
on the Bide ot those beneficent sen ti mens
which contribute to the welfare and
happiness of society.
By its action in appropriating $600
for the Rattlesnake road the Sherman
county court has shown itself alive to
the county's best interests. The influ
ence of the road, though not yet com
pleted, has already been felt by the
farming portions of the county, and the
outlet which is furnished for their pro
duce will give them the advantage of a
competitive market, causing higher
prices to be paid for their wheat. The
countv court deserves commendation for
its wisdom.
A. Sngfcestlon From Air. UXorcan.
Editok Chronicle: I have often
heard some of the pioneers talk of the
boundary line of Oregon. At the as
sembly, a number of the gentlemen sug
gested that the Bummit of tho Cascade
mountains be the line, and since I came
to Eastern Oregon I believe it would
have been better for the people here.
It is a great expense to send our insane
and our prisoners so far, besides a num
ber of other expenses could be saved
and would reduce our taxes one-half.
It is a question that should be discussed
among the people of Eastern Oregon
and at some future time it should be put
to a vote at the general election.
