HOW LONG, Off LORD!
The spectacle of an oppressed peo
ple battling heroically for their rights
and their liberty, is one that at all
times challenges the admiration and
the sympathy of mankind. The
blood of heroes has, time and again,
sanctified the altars of Liberty, and
made glorious the historj of the
world. The stories of Spartacus,
Tell and Arnold "Winkelreid fill the
heart and set the blood, tingling
through vein and artery. Resistance
to tyranny is a theme that has been
immortalized in poetry and flowed in
fiery sentences from the tongues of
orators. Its very essence fills the
soul like a sacred song, and those
heroes of all ages stand out vivid and
distinct from the pages of history
who poured out their blood a libation
n the altars of Freedom. Our own
country, grown to such magnificent
proportions that it singly might defy
the world, owes its existence to those
simple villagers, unknown to fame,
who met the army of the tyrant at
Lexington and sent it bleeding and
broken back to its citadel; to those
sKame! Behold us ! Seventy mill
ions of people, rejoicing in the boun
teous gifts won by your valor, deny
ing to our suffering brethren even
the weight of our sympathy. How
loner. Oh Lord ! shall the minions of
despotism triumph? How long shall
the defenseless fall beneath the sword
of the despoiler? How long shall
xur ears be deaf to the entreaties of
the wretched? How long shall the
blood of heroes enrich the unhappy
soil of Cuba? How lonsr shall the
cries of woe, the tears of sorrow, the
wail of widows and the sobs of or-
nhans find no resDonsive chords in
L
American souls? How long, -Oh!
Lord?

gran J men who at Bennington and
Saratoga, at Eutaw Springs and
Brandy wine, amid the ice of the Del
aware, at Trenton, and the snow of
Valley Forge, at the Cowpens and at
Charleston, for eight years amid the
surgings of doubtful and desperate
battle, and facing, barefooted and
hungry, the inactivity of pinchin
winter, knew but one call, "Resist
ance to Tyranny;" but one duty, to
hew out their country's freedom, or
to refuse to survive her enslave
ment.
Nearly a century and a quarter

Well may we be proud of them ! But
how think you these illustrious dead
would think of us if from the other
shore their knightly spirits might be

lieve we were descended from such
noble sires? Almost on our borders
today a valiant people are strugslin
for independence, even as our illus
trious forefathers did. Against the
armed force and determined will of
a parent nation an oppressed colon
lifts its weak, but courageous, hands
struggling for the light to live and
to be free; fighting for that justice
which tyranny ever denies; pouring
on the shrine bt liberty as gallant
blood as ever flowed through the
azure veins of the one-time glorious
chivalry of Spain; sacrificing their
homes, their property, their all, that
they may. lift their eyes to the blue
heavens from the free soil of Cuba.
The world has witnessed no more
gallant struggle, and it has witnessed
no more culpable cowardliness than
we of this boasted tree America have
been guilty of. "We remain inactive

almost at our doors; we sit idle,
dumb to the pleading outstretched
hands of womanhood, deaf to the
agonizing cry of childhood cut down

- heroic conduct of grand men fight
ing for their lives, their liberties,

At a' mass meeting of the citizens of
Sherman county, held at Wasco Nov. 9,
1896, for the purpose of giving proper
expression ol tneir ieenngs reiauvo iu
he final completion and opening or the
Cascade locks, County Judge John Ful
ton was chosen chairman and V. C,
Brock secretary.
On motion a committee of nine were
ppointed to draft resolutions, and they
reported the following, which were
unanimously adopted, to-wit:
Whereas, The opening of the locks
at the cascades of the Colombia will be
of immeasurable benefit to the residents
of Eastern Oregon, and particularly
Shetman county, and the same has been
greatly hastened by the earnest and nn
tiring efforts of the citizens of The
Dalles, who on the occasion of the said
opening extended mucn generous nos
pitality to our people, therefore be it
Resolved, That the long-felt need ot
connecting the lower with the middle
Columbia has at last been met, and that
it will stimulate business, encourage im
migration and greatly conduce to' . the
prosperity of our country.
Resolved, That we recognize the in
valuable aid that has ever been given
by the progressive and enterprising citi
zens of The Dalles, who have ever been
foremost in pushing this great work to
completion. Their private expressions
and their public press Lave unceasingly
kindled the fire of energy in patriotic
hearts, who have labored zealously to
free the Inland Emptre from corpora'
tion's. grasp by. giving us an open river
to the sea ; and we hereby extend to the
citizens of The Dalles our heartfelt
thanks for their earnest labors in our
behalf. We shall ever remember their
courteous treatment at the celebration
of the opening of the locks, and the en
tertainment at The Dalles Nov. &th.
Let us now put forth oar nnited efforts,
with renewed courage, to overcome the
obstructions above The Dalles by con
necting the middle with the upper river,
and thus extending commerce three
hundred miles further into the fertile
regions of Eastern Washington and Ore
