Shall be our occupation; The treapaaser shall have no raat. However high hit station. TT WAS a JL that possessed W. A. McFher son to believe, when he came to Salem as state printer in the late sixties, after tbe Civil War was over, that "The American Unionist" was a more patriotic name than The Statesman. But he did; at any rate, whatever be believed, he;changed the name of The Statesman, when he got hold Of it, to The American Unionist, and it stuck to that doubly patri otic cognomen for two years, when It changed back to tbe name it has worn for more than 70 years with so much honor and pride. Peter D'Arcy, of Salem, was the Unionist carrier, the winter of 1867-68; the first, he believes, to make the hand-over-hand rounds of the Salem hills. In those days, It was the custom of the carrier boys to carry around a New Years greeting, expecting their patrons to "chip in" with some holiday cheer. On January 1, 1868, the little D'Arcy boy was the richest man in Salem; for his Carrier Greeting brought him more than $20 in real money Croesus and the mint were impecunious pikers and liabilities beside the plethoric newsie. He gave to his patrons a red-hot exhortation prepared by J. D. Locey, of Salem, who a few years later was killed in the explosion of the steamer Spectator, on the Wil lamette river. The D'ArcyB were then living where they have lived for more than 60 years on Lot 1, Block 1. Ward 1. Precinct 1, Sa lem. Judge D'Arcy still has a framed copy of this first carrier's address, here given in full: "The Carrier's Address" Come all ya readers, far and near. And hear the News-Boy's greeting!
