iJriaBtiaatteEaaBttiroBB5w . aS2L vj "nl WILLAMETTE PARMER; PORTLAND, OREGON, JANUARY' 6, 1882 FAMILIAR 8CEHEBY. Jatfe P. Bcadjr !( Ike Friend of Early Maaheod. Orer 32 years ago, aaya the Clairarille, Ohio, Gazette of the 15 ult., there lived in St. Clairaville a poor young man, uamed Matthew P. Deady, who was just beginning the prac tice of lair. He was a native of Maryland, and had lived in Colerain township, and at Barnesville in this county before coming to St. Clairaville. Hia father was a blacksmith and Matthew learned that trade himself, but the young man was talented and ambitious and determined to make his mark in the world. He came to St. Clairsville, studied law with the late Judge Wm. McKennon, Sr., was 'admitted to the bar, and entered upon the practice of hia protession. But Mr. Deady was full of enterprise, and he resolved to strike out for the then unoccupied and al most unknown regions west of the Rocky Mountains, where the opportunities for young men ambitious to be the architects of their own fortunes, were greater than were afforded in the old town of St. Clairsville. Accordingly, in the year 1849, Mr. Deady bid farewell to home and friends and started for the far-off Pacific coast. After months of travel, tramping it part of the way, and driv ing mule teams the remainder, young Deady reached California, and shortly afterwards located in Oregon, where he has since built Itr.himseit a name ana lame ot which any man may well be proud. Soon after locating in. urcvuu Jrcaiucub jriurce uppuimeu jur. Deady Territorial Judge, and a few years later President Buclianau appointed him United States District Judge for Oregon (a life position worth $5,000 a year) which he atill holds. In politics Judge Deady is a Democrat, and he is ouo of the very few Democrats holding Federal offices by appoint ment before the war. Last Wednesday evening Judge Deady, ac companied by his wife, whom he married in Oregon, returned to St. Clairsville to visit his old time iriends, of whom many still remain, though the majority have passed away during those eventful 32 years. To most of the people of St. Clairsville Judge Deady was known only by reputation, but these as well as his old acquaintances were glad to see him and welcome him back to the old town. On Friday evening our citizens tendered the Judge and his charming wife a reception at the National Hotel, where they were stopping, which was a very pleasant affair for all who were present. The elegant parlors of the National Hotel were filled with a large number of our best people. About 9 o'clock the St. Clairsvills band appeared in front of the hotel and played some of their best mnsic, after which Judge Chambers addressed the saaemblage as follows: Ladies and Uentlemks : A generation ago there was with us and of us, a young man, in the vigor of manhood, v. ho, moved by those noble impulses which always lead to success and victory, began his journey toward the setting sun. Eagerly he traversed the fertile fields, the arid plains and howling wil derness of the western world, until at last he rested under the shadows of the great mouu taina in the valley of the beautiful Willam ette. In the years agone, from then until now, how many have been the change, what volumes have been added to the world a His tory, what joya and what aorrows.what pleas ins anticirjations and what painful misgivings. what sad disappointments and what joyous triumphal Since' then the youths of aaay Dave grown of a royal manhood, those who were then unborn have become the princes among men, and many then in the pnme of manhood have passed away. The wilderness in which that young man found a resting Elace, by the hand of the sturdy pioneer, has een made to bloom and blossom as the rose. Continents have been linked together by the chains of lightning, nations bound with iron bands, and the world has moved with giant strides onward to a glorious consummation. The march of intellect has been with light ning speed, and the arts and sciences have de vnloned a nrozress-in this half century even greater than in any thousand years of the world's history, and now, peace, with all its blessings, dwells in all our borders. What, among all these vicissitudes of life, these pleasing contemplations my friends, should delioht us more than the contemplation of the fact that our friend, now with us, has not stood still in the world s march but.witn ' RTi-elninr " tnr his motto, has moved onward and upward until the garland of well-earned rictory rests upon hja brow ; and that with steady and well-directed sterJs he should have well nigh reached the acme oi numan amui tinn I And what should delizlit us more than that he should come again from the scene of bis honor and triumph, with his charming companion, to extend a coimai greeting to friends of former days I He comes to us full nf weara and honors and it is meet that we should congratlato and honor him whom the world has honored. My f i iends, your delight will be to hear from him who once was with as and of lis, and that your pleasure be not longer delayed, I now have the great pleasure to formally introduce to you Hon. Matthew P. Deady, United States Judge of the faraway State ot uregon. nppiausei. Judge Deadv then spoke as follows : Ladies and Gentlemen, old Friends and ww Kriv.hds. and particularly the old frianda This is not an occasion for speech' making. Besides, speech-making is not my .Mn:n . nA r h.ivA heen so lone on the Bench that I have forgotten the art, if I ever knew it. But, ll 1 even were an wiwr, could not express the pleasure which tni ir4.nAo HAmnnRt.ra.tion crives me. Years ago, aa my friend Judge Chambers has so eloquently told you nearly the limit ot an average generation i " mi " town, so long the capital of the picturesque hills, constituting the county ot Belmont, for the far-off aud then almost unknown shore of te Pacific Ocean. Although not to the manor bom, and comparatively thru new among you, in a few years I had lvd here I had found friends and formed friendships that made the going no light or easy matter. Here I had lived during the moat impressi ble yean of my young lite here I had read law, been admitted to the bar and commenced the practice; and now, upon my return after an absence of more than 32 years, I am glad to find that I am not forgotten. Indeed it tin my blood and warms my heart to find so many of my early friends and associates, to gather with other distinguished ladies and gentlemen, here to-night to welcome me back to 8t. Claimille. . During my absence I have seen an infant settlement Oregon grow into a great State. In its progreaa thus far, I have taken, I may ay without boasting, a not inconspicuous natt. Portland, ita commercial metropolis, contain 25,000 inhabitants, and is doubling ita population every decade. Its commerce extends to every quarter of the globe and it transacts the business ot the surrounding country for at least 300 miles. And I have een the beginning of it. But during all this time and among all these interesting and engrossing affairs, 1 have never forgotten the pleasant daya apent here with my youthful friend, then full of hope and confidence, some of whom I aee around uie tinged with gray and looking down the de cline of life. Together we walked, sang, danccJ, read and discoaaed the current ques tions of tho day, little thinking how various and diverse our futures were to be. Wherever I have roamed, whether over the trackless prairie or through the sombre forest, or howsoever engaged, the light of these days has never faded from my memory. The so ciety of "The Seven" was a literary and de bating club, so called, because by its consti tution only seven persona could be members of it at any one time. But in fact, only five persons ever belonged to it. Jt mat weekly or semi-weekly. The meetings were presided over by one of the members, who also acted as secretary and treasurer during that meet ing, ami (.lieu tiiese dignities (luvnivcu upon the next one in alphabetical order. The other four engaged in the discussionor other exercises of the evening. One of this five is asleep upon a foreign shore, ono is hero to night and an hopored and worthy member of this community. 'Another has just been chosen as your judge, and the fourth has tho jionorof now addressing you. The fifth one is still alive, but I can't say exactly where, and I believe fondly flirting with the muses. Nor have I ever forgotten our distinguished seniors at the Bar of that day. They ere tho men who had made the name of St. Clairs ville known and honored far and near, in tho halls of Congress, at the Bar ami Bench. Most of them have passed orer to the other shore. Among them I call the names of Shannon, Peck, Jewett, Carroll, Alexander, Oeniu, Cowen and tho two Kennons William, inninr and senior. Truly, of them it may be said, they were giants in those days. Much of what I am and have accomplished in this world is largely due to tnv association and converse with those men during tin's forma tive jcriou oi my me. , Particularly do 1 wish to acknowledge my indebtedness to the precepts and example of my preceptor Judgo Wm. Kennon, senior, " the noblest Roman of them all." The de sire to see him once more in this life was the principal cause of my present visit here. But death preceded me a few weeks, and the good husband and father, the true friend, the pa triot citizen, the wise counsellor and just judge had already sunk to his rest, full of years and honors. Applause. Yesterday I stood by his new-made grave in the old cemetery over yonder and thanked Hod that I had known hirnin my youth, and breathed a prayer that I might so live as to meet him at last in the assembly of the just. In conclusion, permit me on behalf of my self and wife to again thank you all for your attention and kindness to us while here. She is the most valuable prize I have drawn in the lottery of life, and the best friend I have found since I left you ; and it gives me great pleasure to present her to my friends in St. Clairsville. Applause, The meeting then broke up with regretful leave-takings, and on Saturday morning Judge and Mrs. Deady left for Barnesville, where they intend spending a few days aud than go to Washington, D. C. They will return to Oregon early in January. The Judge and his wife are a very good looking and pleasant couple, apparently yet in the prime of life, and all who met them were delighted with them. What Deea this Mean ? Oen. Jamea S, Brisbin, a distinguished en- Tgineer, says the Walla Walla Union, who has been in charee of the Yellowstone and Mon tana divisions of the Northern Pacific rail road, writes to the New York Herald that that road after leaving Helena, Montana, "passes over the Rocky mountain divide through the Deer Lodge pass, and enters the Deer Lodge valley. A tunnel will have to be constructed through the divide, but it will be short and easily made. The tunnel will be made this Winter. From Deer Lodge valley the road runs along Hell Gate river into the Missoula valley and up this valley to Lo Lo pass, where it passes over into Washington Territory and Oregon." Only one of two con structions can be placed on this; cither Gen. Brisbin is mistaken or the Northern Piftific is to be built over the Lo Lo Clearwater Eass. The operations of the company at and eyond Pend d'Oreille lake, where they have large forces of men at work grading, bridging and clearing the way, would indicate that Gen. Brisbin was mistaken. On tho other hand, we have it from a very reliable source that Mr. Zaliner found the Lo Lo Clean ater pass explored by Maj. Truax lost Summer, much better than reported. What the p'.ms of the Northern Pacific railroad company are, one can guess as well as another. Gen. Bris bin's letter is only a straw showing the possi ble direction of the wind. Short STATlSTirs.

Teller, who died suddenly at his home in Polk county some time since, was sent to Dr. Rex, of this city, to be subjected to an analysis to ascertain whether any poison had been admin istered to him. The Doctor announces as the result of his investigation that no traces of poison were found. The Salem doctors who made a post mortem examination of the re mains announced at the time that hia death was caused by rupture of the aorta, and this was probably correct. , Change or Sailing Dates.

Weiton Leader If we have a dash of snow here, we think our climate as bad as the East ern States, and if it rains for two or three con secutive days, we consider we are degfneruting into a ngufar Webfoot climate. But in how many parts nf the Uiiito.l States can ve go forth at Christinas and get a mess of trout ? D. D. Earp, who is doubtless the "boss" sportsman in this line, laid on our tablo a nico mess of large, fresh mountain trout, caught bv him on Christmas day. Who can beat this"? Seattle Post-Intelligencer: The fine barken tine, built at this place for the Puget Mill Company, was launched this afternoon. She was named the "Kitsip," and her dimensions are as follows: Length. 175 feet; beam, 40 feet; hold, 15 feet, and tonnage 694. She is a very fine model; is built of the very best selected material, and is as strong and sub stantial as wood and iron can make her. She is copper fastened and coppered to the water line, and will carry about 800,000 feet of Iuni. her. Her builder is Mr. John Beaton, late of California, aud a more gentlemanly and hu mane ship builder never trod the shores of Puget Sound. Her lower masts and ringings were put in while on the stocks. Mr. Saxie, the jollv old landsman, is tho rigger. The ood carving was done by Mr. Allen in a very neat and tasty manner, and is admired by all. Capt. Robinson, of the Klickitat, it is Baid, will bo her commander. The Northern Pacifi: Railroad Company has, within a month, had 325 miles of new road accepted by tho United States Govern ment 10U miles in Dakota and Montana, and 225 miles in Washington and Idaho Ter ritories. By this acccptanco tho company ac quires 5,760,000 acres of agricultural and tim ber lands in Washington iiiid Idaho, and 2,- 560,000 acres of farming and grazing lands in Western Dakota, in all 8,320,000 acres. Plaindealer : Mr. Sol Abrahams, right of way agent for the O. Sc C. R. R. Co., has se cured the right of way through the different farms from here to tho head of Cow Creek valley, where a depot has been located. From there south the road goes through government land until it reaches Ualesville, and there will be no more work for him in that line until the survey reaches that point. Mr. Abrahams is, no doubt, the best man the company could have engaged to do that work, as he is not only personally acquainted with all with whom he will have to come in contact, but is a thorough business man, and will serve the best interests, both of the company and those through whose land the road is located. State Line Herald: From B. M. Cobb, who was in town this week, direct from Juniper Mountain, we learn that sheep on the desert are wintering splendidly. There are now about 10,000 head of sheep out there. They are all in good order. The range is excellent. But little snow has fallen so far barley enough to supply necessary water for stock. Cattle have not been driven to the desert yet. A great many are now among the tulea of the Chewaucan marsh. In a conversation with Mr. B. D. Butler, of Alder Creek, W. T., we learn, says the Dalles Times, that the season so far has been very favorable for stock of all kinds. The grass is four inches high, and furnishes good feed for cattle, horses and sheep. Without a sudden change, he thinks the present Winter will pass without any great damage to flocks. The wet Fall was very good for grain cowing, and Mr. B. is in" hopes that tlie'yieUTHext year will surpass any former one. Albany Democrat: A. J. Olin, one of our practical fanners, brought in last Tuesday, and sold to Mr. West, tho butcher, of Salem, the nicest porkers we have seen for a long time. They weighed, when dressed, 350 and 353 pounds, and brought their owner the nice little sum of $53.85. They were a cross of Berkshire and Poland China, only 10 months and 11 days old, and had gained on an aver age over a pound a day since their birth. Still we hear some farmers say there is no money in pork. Blooded stock don't cost very much get some of it and experiment a little This thing of Taisintr wheat, wheat, wheat I all the time, and nothing else, is -old fogyism. What Snail the Future be. The policy heretofore pursued by the people of Oregon has been one of impovrishment rather than of building up. Wheat and wool havo been sent abroad to purchase needed supplies. We send our wool three thousand miles to be-then worked up into ready made clothing to be again freighted three thousand miles back to us. Our beef hides are shipped in the same way, and we got our hoots and shoes from the East. Thus our producers and consumers are made to pay heavy freights to and from tho Staffs, while tho products of our State are necessarily restricted to bucIi articles aa can be shipptJd over long routes and heavy expense, thus greatly limiting tho source of income and narrowing the channel of profit able employment. Tho time is at hand when this condition of things should be changed. If new enterprises are not to be inaugurated, if the present ayatem is to be continued, then the clamor for more immigration is only for accelerated exhaustion. Our soils are fast being exhausted, and the grasses fed off to that our wheat crops must decrease and our wool gradually fail, while our needs will not in any sense diminish. We must deviso means for utilizing our natural advantages; we nittst manufacture a portion of our wool and furnish our homo market with all needed woolen goods, and the same is true of all articles manufactured from leather, iron and wood, in other words, we should become pre-eminently a manufacturing people. Daily Waterman. Good Chance for Settler. Mr. Drake, who ha been up on Rogue river recently, telle ua that there ia more va cant land in that part of our county which ia desirable for farms than ia centrally known. A number ol settlen could find good paying ranches in the Government land about me Meadows and Evana creek. There is ex cellent lands and good range for small bands of stock. As evidence of what kind of soil may be found there, Mr. Drake brought us a bunch of oatt which are about the tallest we bavci ever r eon, the atalka being over 7i feet in length. Thia grew at the Danlitl Beynold'a plaro on "Oak Hill," at tbehetdof Evans cieek, and Mr. K. has also raised his own ttbacc? tad has syrup from cane of his own rai.n.

Jory, of Salem, Cregon. ;if 1 The man who livea in a climate reputed to be moderate, cannot expose his stock with impunity, because the frequently cold rains of such a climate are more damaging than tho dry, bracing atmosphere of a more northerly location. Experience proves this; and the proofs aro borne out by tho teachings of phy.iology, namily, that a dry, cool atmos phere is a tonic which," indulged in with moderation, will invigorate; while, on tho other hand, a wet, chilly atmosphere is de pressing to tho vital forces in the highest 'degree. Perhaps there is no kind of exposure that is more detrimental, or which causes greater discomfort, than to ho forced to stand upon the feet during day and night, or otherwise lie in tho 6t nest. The cow, the horse, and the pig, particularly abhor a wet bed. Rheu matism, lung and bronchial ailments, conges tion of the liver, bowels or kidneys, in fact any'ailment which comes of congestion, may lu contracted in a night by a beast that is forced to lie in the wet. No function of the body can go on, even moderately well, under the damaging influences of a wet nest; and to put fat upon a beast so exposed is not possi ble, except through the expenditure of a very Urge amount of feed greatly larger than required by au animal comfortably housed and bedded. National Live-Stock Journal. The Care of Sheep. The man who seeks to becomo a flock own er, hecauso he expects to cscapo the caro and work to which ha has been subjected in look ing after tho details of tome other business, will certainly meet with disappointment yi one of two ways. Ho will either find that ncgligenco here, as everywhere else, will brinir disappointment and disaster, or he will meet tho requiieinvnts of the situation, and put in all the tune and labor necessary to success. Tho merit of sheep husbandry is, not that it can be successfully prosecuted without hard work and liberal expenditure, but that it will pay lor these with so much certainty, and in such liberal returns, as to give it merited iuuiiiiucui;t; umuiig ttiu iiiuusinea. j.iie man who seeks to demonstrate to himself and others the minimum requirements of the flock, may succeed until mistaken ecopomy becomes manifest cruelty, and even then may "gather where he has not strewn;" hut the highest capabilities of the flock will be left to the demonstration of the man who supple ments the well filled trough and teeming pasture, with a careful scrutiny and foresicht into the comfort and convenience of every animai-, ne win nave provision against in clemencies of cold and heat, wet and drouth; will have Winter and Summer food convenient and plentiful; will carefully guard against danger and disturbance from every source knowing from experience that these will in sure a compound return for the 'time and money required for their consummation. Parsimony never pays the sheep hubsband- man. In proportion to his ltbeeality, "such will the harvest he." Breeder's Gazette. Oil Heal With Winter Food. It ia not an uncommon occurrence for cowa to be taken ill in Winter from a lack of the proper amount of fatty matter in their food, Tnis is likely to, happen when they are living upon dead ripe corn etoven, late-cut Hunga rian grasr ar latn.cut hay ..all of which are pretty sure to bo lacking in oily matter. The effect is first manifested in a weakening of digestion, which is indicated by a loss of ap petite, cold horns, nose, and extremities, and staring coat. The empirio remedy in such cases, employed for a "lost cud," consisting of a piece of fat pork' or-meltedlard forced down tho animal, is not without somel3ar ing upon the situation, as it tends to supply the defective fatty matter in the food, though the empiric has not the least conception of any connection between the remedy and the disease. A better and more efficient remedy consists in giving raw linseed oil enough to act as a cathartic, as it is moro readily utilized than lard. This kind of difficulty is avoided when such fodder must be used, by giving with it a small ration of oil meal or cotton-seed meal to supply tho scanty element. Livestock Journal. Honor to Wnom Due. The Portland correspondent of the Aelorian gives a lady credit for stopping tho sale of linuors on tho O. K. & if, Co.'s boats in tho following neat little story: "Before it slips my memory I must tell you how it happens that no liquors aro sold on tho river steamers. About a year before the sale of the old com nanv to the O. II. & N. Co.s Capt. George J, Ainsworth, son of Capt. John 0. Ainsworth,J was appointed ueucral superintendent, as a favor to his wife, who made the request, ho issued an order abolishing bars. These were no little iacome to the stewards, aud after the new management came in largo amounts were offered for the privilege of selling drinks, brt the experiment of twelvemonths showed such an improvement in the behavior of rough pusengers (and boats on every trip carry many who are not Chesterfields), and so much better discipline in crews, that no money could induce the new company to restore the bars."
