THE WIS GfiETTL TUESDAY SEPTEMBER 18, 1900. Eor President: killiam Mckinley of Ohio. For Vice-President: THEODORE ROOSEVELT of New York. For Presidential Electors. TILMON EORD Marion County J. C. FULLERTON Douglas County W. J. FURNISH Umatilla County O. F. PAYTON Multnomah County GOOD FOR MOUNT! September 13th, the people ef Fort Wayne, Ind., dedicated to the memory of General Henry W. L,awton a monument crown ed by a cannon cuptured by him from the Filipinos, and christ ened the principal park in honor of Lawton. Some evil genius, or ignorance of the eter nal fitness of things, prompted someone to invite Mr. W. J. Bryan to deliver the principal oration of the occasion, and Mr. Bryan, sublimely unconscious of the awkwardness of his position, accepted the invitation. These exercises were being held and this monument was erected to show Indiana's appreciation of General Lawton's services to his country in attempting ho suppress the Filipino insurrection, and here was Mr. Bryan, who is denounc ing this war as an unholy and unjust one, taking the most prominent part in doing honor to a soldier who gave up his life in that war. As well ask Agui naldo himself to take part in such a ceremony. Governor Mount spoke just before Mr. Bryan. The govern or took up the question of the Philippine war, denouncing Aguinaldo by name and showing a tendency to strong condemns tion of the insurgents and all who may sympathize with them Ho spoke of the fact that the p-un had been taken from men who had turned it upon our flag and our soldiers. If any man shall take offense at the words of Governor Mount, that man has no right to honor the memory of Lawton. ' The governor said in putt "If this cannon was not cap tured in a just and humane war and from those resisting the law fully constituted authority over these islands, fighting the sol diers of th government that had liberated them from Spanish thraldom, then where is the hon or of the capture and the glory of this gift? Honor the insur gents as patriots and then you interpret wrongfully the words, the will and the act of our dead hero, and this shaft becomes a hollow mockery and this trophy of patriotic valor becomes a mon ument to the dishonor of our soldiers' and the shame of our country. "I trust I dav when I may never see the shall so far foreet my devotion and my loyalty to my mother country as to char acterize our soldiers as the agents of oppression, turning the ban ner of liberty into an ensign of imperialism, nor do I apprehend such a consummation." Lumbering Activity. During the past season there has been much activity among timbermen in securing holdings in the difiereot belts. In South western Benton a great deal of timber land has been secured. And much interest ha been shown regarding timber land ad jacent the Siletz Indian Reserva tion. West and south of Dallas is quite a large belt of valuable timber. In seeking an invest ment in timber it appears that monied lumbermen are not very particular regarding the variety of timber so long as it is of good quality and of reasonably easy access. It will not be long be fore the question of location will be ignored in Oregon and avail able section of timber will be taken. Nor will it be many years before every belt of tim ber in the state will be easy of access, so rapidly is the country opening up, and so energetically are the various railroad com panies securing new franchises and right-of-ways, etc. In or der to give an idea of the im mense amount of lumber that the forests of Oregon contain, it is only necessary to quote the following from the Brownsville Times: H. G. McKinley, accompanied by three other timbermen, went into the timber belt a few miles east of this city this week, and in township 15 south, range 2 east, he measured ofl one acre and counted the fir trees thereon. On this one acre were 81 trees which will average 100 feet in longth aud 3 in diameter, mak ing about 400,000 feet. This is all fir and hence does not include a large amount of hemlock. Mr. McKinley says this timber has fallen into good hands, and soon less than five years big mills will begin the manufacture of lumber and then Brownsville will take on new life. Buys Another Road. A. B. Hammond, the Mon tana capitalist who controls the Corvallis & Eastern Railroad and the Astoria & Columbia River Railroad, has recently shown his faith in the- Pacific coast states by purchasing an other important and valuable piece of railroad property, the new road running from Eureka, California, to the coast, the Eel River & Eureka Railroad, to gether with valuable timber lands and other enterprises and industrial undertakings connect ed with the road. As a result of the purchase of this valuable piece of property, Mr. Ham mond, it is expected, will soon remove from his present home at Portland to San Francisco. It is believed that his purchase of the several properties now controlled by him on the coast will ultimately lead to a splen did system of railroads in Ore gon and California, with a main line running north and south parallelling the coast line, and that the purchase of the several lines already controlled by Mr Hammond was the result of a careful plan with this idea in view. Statesman. There is a slight mistake ap parent in the above statement that the "new road runs from Eureka, California, to the coast." Such is not the case. Eureka is right on the coast, being situ ated on the Humbolt bay. It is the coast terminus of the road. .from tnis point tne road runs south and a little east through the Eel River valley and from the inland terminus it is from 75 to 100 miles to Ukiah, Mendicino county, where it will eventually connect with the line tfaat runs from the latter place to San Francisco bay. Ed. Arthur Johnson. The death of Arthur Johnson occurred at nis nome, seven miles north of Corvallis, early Saturday morning. His death was rather unexpected, for he was in Corvallis a short time ago as well to all appearances as he had been for several years. The cause of his death ii thought to have been inflammation ot the bowels. Artnur jonnson was about 7 A , 1 -r 1 years of age. He came to Ben ton county many years ago and has been a highly respected citi zen during the entire period of his residence in this county. He has been oyer the greater part of the coast, at one time having been engaged in mining during the great mining boom of Call fornia. He recived a number of severe jams while working in the mines that left him somewhat crippled during'the remainder of his life. His wife died a few years ago and he has two daugh ter who survive him, and they are the wives of the Harris brothers. Both gentlemen and their wives reside on the Johnson farm. The funeral oocurred Sunday at 2 o'clock in the afternoon, un der the auspices of the Masonio Lodge of this city. The services took place at the family residence and were conducted by Rev. MacEean, of the Episcopal church. The remains were in terred in the Locke cemetery. And thus another Oregon pio neer has passed to the great un known, but he has so lived that his memory will be cherished by former friends and companions for years to come. A Call for Warrants.
