AN AWFUL TRAGEDY
The MEMPHIS EAGLE furnish
es the details of a most awful
tragedy and the swift vengeance
of the excited populace, which oc
curred in that city on .Wednes
day, Jan. 1st: -y-i
"On Wednesday evening, our
community was convulsed .by one
of those violent, excitements, be
fore which customary 1 barriers
give way. ' A 'horrible murder was.
followed by a summary and terri
ble punishment. An excited pop
ulace learning that . Mr. John K.
Chester. Recorder of Memphis, a
most faithful and diligent public
servant, and an exceedingly amia
ble gentleman, had been- brntaHy
and causelessly shot down- by a
runaway slave who claimed to be
free, took the law Into Its own
hands, dragged the negro' from ihe
calaboose, and hung him on the
nearest tree."
The facts as detailed are briefly'
these: The negro, In company
with a white, man, -called at fke i
Recorder's office, with a free pass,
to which' he desired the Recorder's
seal attached. Suspecting the. oy
to be a runaway, and. the papers
a forgery, he questioned him as o
the facts, .which the 'boy denied.
The Recorder made inquiries, out
of doors, and being confirmed in
his suspicions, returned to interro
gate the boy again, which he did
say those present. In. a,-mos , plea
sant tone, and in the midst of the
Interrogation, turned ihls face to
speak to a gentleman;' when the
negro drew a pistol and shot him
dead. The negro was ". promptly
taken into custody, not.'-howeVeT,
w I thou t considerable di f f lenity i by
the two gentlemen present, and
subsequently sent to the cala
boose, frpm whence' he was Iran
mediately taken by .the enraged
populace and executed.. confessing
under the gallows that he was a'
runaway.
What became of the white man
who accompanied him to the of
fice, does not appear'.'1' thipugh wt'

been arrested, and committed as-

1 JENNY LIND AND THE BOYJ-C
-The Baltimore correspondent of
the Washington Union, gives the
following account of an interest
Ing scene which lately occurred at
the Front-street Theatre in thai
citj:
At 3 'o'clock yesterday' afterr
noon, mayor Jerome addressed a
note to Jenny LInd, stating the
excitement existing - among,, the
children of-the public scbols; and
asking her it she would4 Slot "af
ford them an f opportunity to see
.
i
replied that she twould be most
happy lei meet them at 10 oVJork
this mornlnjj at the Front-street
Theatre, and at that hour not ls
than 600" girls were assembled
within I ts walls.y A f u 11 orches tra
was in , attendance, and she sang
them several of her best pieces, to
their gteai delight. Her heart,
however, was with the boys, about
C000. of whom were , waiting out
side, and she hastily dismissed the
girls to lmake room for-them.
As .soon as the Theatre .was
cleared, they rushed In with happy
hearts; and on the fair songstress
making " her 'appearance, they
greeted her with enthusiastic
cheers, .for , which she thanked
them "most kindly.
After order was restored, she
sang '"Hpme. Sweet Home" for
tb,em; and. after a piece from the
orchestra, she came forward and
addressed the children. She said
fit ;af forded her gratification to
contribute to their pleasure, and
asked them what they would have
her sing.' Some of them cried out
one song, and some another, until
four were called. She then plea
santly addressed them, and re
marked that, as they seemed di
vided she would sing them all,
provided they would sing for her
afterwards. This was received
with great enthusiasm, and she
proceeded to sing "I Know That
My Redeemer Liveth," followed
by th "Bird Song." the "Flnte
Song," and the "Mountaineer's
Song," the first of which she re
peated. . The boys then sang for
her "Hall Columbia" and the
"Star-Spangled Banner" very fine
ly, and she clapped them most
heartily, waving her Jiandkerchief
over her head. .After giving her
three hearty cheers, the boys were
dismissed and the performance
was over. She seemed as much
delighted as they were.
Perhaps the most acceptable
kind of flattery consists less in
eulogizing a man's actions, or tal
ents, than in decrying those of his
rival. r .
Soul-cheering it is to live in an
age, when, a thought is stronger
than a sword, public opinion more
powerful than a standing army,
the people's mouth more potent
than .the cannon.
"You labor overmuch on your
Composition, doctor;" - said a flip
pant clergyman to an old divine.
"1 vrjte, a sermon in three hours,
and 'make nothing of-it.? : "So
your congregation says," quoth
the doctor. .
TO THE PUBlJC
After tedious months of impa
tience and anxiety, we are enabled
to send forth the first number of
the Oregon Statesman; and. in ac
cordance with a time-honored cus
tom,, we accompany it with a brief
Index of our designs.
First, the Statesman will be
faithfully devoted to the interests
and prospteriy of the Territory.
Oregon is our home the land of
our adoption and choice, and her
interests are our interests, her
welfare is our welfare; and the
promotion of her advancement,
the development of her varied re
sources, agricultural, commercial.
mineial and manufacturing, will
always .receive our; first and fore
most attention. Nor shall we per
mit ourself to be influenced by
anyfeelings'of rivalry which may
exist between different points and
sections; we go for the whole of
Oregon, every part and parcel, be
lieving that the interests of all
are -so- connected' and interwoven
that the growth and improvement
of one point or portion, contrib
utes in a greater or less degree to
the growth and improvement of
every other.
In politics, the Statesman will
be Democratic, devoted to the in
terests and adhering to the usages
ot that party, and defending its
measures and members .against
the. jinmeri.ted assaults of political-opposition.
Schooled1 to cher
ish the great truths promulgated
by that patriarch ot Democracy,
THOMAS JEFFERSON. and
strengthened by observation . and
experience in the conviction ' of
their correctness and adaptation
to our. form u of government, we
hall labor to propagate and sus
tain' them with whatever ability
we possess.
a In Territorial politics. the
Statesman will labor to secure and
preserve the integrity and unity
of jthe Democratic party. Irrespec
tive of local interests or personal
aims; and we shall therefore re
fuse, on all occasions, to lend our
columns lo further the purposes
of tactions, cliques or Individuals
To make 'the Statesman the true
and. faithful organ of the whole
Democracy of Oregon, , will be the
heighth ot our ambition.; , - . .. ; .
But w, bile we shall -be firm and
unflinching in - the advocacy and
defence of our own opinions, we
shall endeavor to observe a court-:
eoua; and 'respectful r demeanor
towards those; who may 'chance to
differ with us, awarding to all the
same freedom of opinions that we
claim-for ourself. We are noblg
ot,and . belong not to-that tlass

English language he found.lt ex
tremely difficult to get work. He
was persistent,! however, and de
termined to make good. After
sometime he got a job at $6.00 a
week. In eight months time he
was receiving! for his labors
$80.00 per month, and- when
he informed his boss that ; he
was going to quit and enter busi
ness for himself he was offered
$125.00 per month if he would
stay. ' ;
During this time Mr. Director
had "attended night school and had
mastered the English language so
that he could speak it quite well.
He was also preparing himself to
become an American citizen dur
ing this time
Early in 1910 Mr. Director
opened up n j business . of his
own in Portland. Ho ran this
business for eight years and was
very successful. In 1918 he pur
chased, with his brothers, the
Spencer Hardware business Jhen
located In the building now occu
pied' by Kafoury Brothers on
State street. The following year
this business" was sold to the Sa
lem Hardware company.
During the next few years Mr.:

cially to Salem, made up largely
of people from other countries

Director's Department store,
under the ownership and man
agement of Mr Director, lives "ful
ly up to Its name. It ia a depart
ment store, where the . need of
customers in many lines can be
and are supplied. It is really a
three story building of high class
merchandise, because . there is a
bargain , basement, and - there : are
balconies to accommodate ready to
wear and other lines.
Mr. Director aims to have his
establishment a real house of wel
come, for the people of Salem and
the Salem district, where custom
