i, . . - v. - .v.' - KOSEBURG REVIEW:! FBIDAY.-JULY 3, 1885. A STEP FOBWAKD. . With this issue, we discard our "pat-. nt" outside and present tc our readers a home printed newspaper. Not quite jb'ix months ago the Review came under Sta present management. That it has had a steady growth in the favor of the jmblkj can be testified to by its large advertising patronage and by the many lie n names on its subscription list. VTc have aia.cd to keep it fully abreast of the demands and to meet the wishes of the progressive people who have so geh roasly endorsed our course and pur-y poses. To give the people of Douglas county complete local newspaper, to s;ive Southern Oregon a representative jour nal, and the State of Oregon a bold, fearless champion these hav been the object cf the Review. J That it will take time to make the Review oil we wish it, is a fact; and to aid us in our undertaking, we look with confidence to the people who have given us such adequate endorsement in the past. Politically, the Review is Demo xratic and heartily endorses the admin istration of President Cleveland. V desire revenue reform, civil service re form and an honest and able adminis tration of the government. These, wo take to be the aims of the Democracy and of the Cleveland administration. .'..But above all parties must come Amer ican citizenship an(I we will always claim and exercise the fearless aud in--dependent advocacy of any causa we 4elieve to be right and in the interest of the people. Again we thank our numerous pat rons for the support they have accorded the Review, and promise many more improvements in the near futtue. EXTiiA. SESSION. The Republican Press of Oregon seem ?to treat the matter of an extra session of the Legislature a3 a fixed fact a .foregone conclusion even a proper thing to be done. We call our readers of both parties to attest the fact that "W hava never yet shown the lack of confidence m Gov. Moody that has been shamefully displayed by his own party organs. They do not attach any im jportance to the circumstance that the .Legislature just adjourned had exclu sive jurisdiction over the subject and .saw fit to do nothing. The law made it their duty to consider the matter of electing a U. S. senator. Surely the proclamation of the Covcruor cannot iave any more binding force than the law they are sworn to obey. The Governor has the right to recommend .the passage of measures and the Legis lature has a perfect right to disregard his recomendation. Should they do so it cannot be pretended that the Gov ernor should reconvene t!t n to consid er the same subject. Nonsense, and jret this is parallel with the senatorial business. Under the circumstances he Governor has no right to call the Legislature together for the purpose of voting for a U. S. senator and it is a real shame that his own political organs should thus seek to mislead him. If he is afraid to trust a Legislature new jind fresh from the people then morally he is restrained he should not, he dare not thwart their will. If Oregon Ynust need have the vacant senatorship sup plied then although we cannot concede his power to do so, it would be better to appoint By so doing over thirty thousand dollars would be saved to our treasury and the people a year hence will have opportunity to be heard for themselves. Economy, honesty and fair dealing cannot be successfully -disregarded by Mr. Moody or any oth r man or body of men. The Gover nor should prefer to be known as an -ihonest man, a patriot, rather than as the pliant subservient tool of political tricksters. . The Portland "Standard" h?s a new nianagement, Mr. Noltner retiring. He has been .an indefatigable worker And holds a very deai place in the ngart of the Democracy of Oregon. .Mr. S. B, Pettengill is the new propri etor and he wields a very graceful pen. , We understand that he will change it to an evening paper and de vote it more especially to state and lo ta) news. Success. Three more excursions are booked from the East to the Pacific coast this reason, as well a3 a press - excursion from Colorado. A party under the management of Raymond & Whitcomb, will leave Boston July 23J, and anoth er, August 22 J. The Illinois Central railroad is getting ready for an excur sion to leave St. Paul, August 19di. Hon. John A. Logan of Illinois, has lately captured the RIaino state Main?." The "Plumed Knight will A'VW'cely recover from this back-tet, JJLra. Logan is equally as popular as jher husband, and even outshines Mrs, i&ino in society, , Hil1 Tomorrow will be the anniversary of the birth day of the government of the United States.' On July 4th 1776, the delegates from the colonies of New Hanishire, Massachusetts Bay, Rhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New- Jersey, Pensylvania, Delaware, Mary land, Virginia, North Carolina South Carolina and Georgia met at Philadel-? i - iii t I nnia and declared for a new order m ..L. i. -ii n. ernments in Christendom were governed by kings and princes. while the people were entitled to such rights only as their lulers would grant. The men who had carved out of the wilderness a new empire were not disposed to acknowledge ''any rights of kings, but astonished the world by declaring that "all men are free and equal, that they are endowed by their creator with cer tain inalienable right?-, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of hap piness, that to seenra these rights gov ernments are instituted among men, deriving their ju.t powers from the consent of the governed, that whenever any form of government becomes de structive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute a new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to elTeet their safety and happiness." Thi3 heretical doctrine was maintained by foice of arms, in an unequal contest with the strongest kingdom in Europe, and when independence was won, was eni bodied in the constitution of 1780, winch stands to-day the brightest ex ample of the power of the people fur self-government the world has ever known. This declaration of independence is the event which the people are assem bling in every town and every hamlet throughout the Union to celebrate to morrow. It will be celebrated by large crowds, some of whom will listen to the orator of the day; but the majority look upon it as a holiday devoted to pleasure and fire-works, without the slightest thought of the solemnity of the occasion. Our forefathers held it sa cred in memory of those grand old patriots who pledged : their lives, their fortunes and their sacred honor to maintain the principles which are the foundation of our government. It would be weil if their deseendehts would celebrate in the same manner and thus keep alive the same flames .on the altar, of liberty. -. RID. On Friday the 2Gth of last month In dian Mooch died on Lis place on East Umpqua. Mooch was weil liked by all who knew him- Our readers will re member the .circumstance- mentioned in this paper several mouths ajgro of his having sent to President Cleveland a present of a pair of Indian make buck skin riding gloves. They were gra ciously received by the President who in return sent his photograph. This humble American citizen was deemed worthy the respect and courtesy of our great Chief Magistrate and the evidence of it further served to exalt this great officer. Mooch was a Klamath by birth, was captured when a child and raised by the Umpquas and at de.'tb was thiity five years old. He was quiet and civil and never bore arms in war except to assist the whites . agiinst the Modccs in 1872. His life furnished a good ex ample to others cf his race. In the vast field of eternity may he reach and rest in ihe happy hunting ground pre pared for all who in life were meek and lowly. The first person born in the White House, and perhaps the only one born there, is now a candidate for office in Washington. Mis. Mary E. Wilcox was a daughter of Andrew J. Donelscn, the adopted son of Gt-n. Jackson' Don elson was private secretaiy to Jackson during his term as President, and re sided with his family, Mrs. Donelson being lady of the house in the absence of, the President's wife. It was dur ing Mr. and Mrs. Donelson's time that their daughter Mary was born. This child of the White House married in the course of time, becoming Mrs. Wil cox. . A correspondent "writing from Na ples, says this city has a population of 495,000; of which, 350,000 live under ground, in noisome cellars that extend far back fiom the street. Crime is so rampant, that in many thickly popula ted quarters of the city, highway rob beries frequently occur, in bioad day light. The natives seem to feel that the world owes them -a living, and they are going to get it. Defending the crim inals, gives occupation to 11,000 law yers cf the Italian school, who work for fees, from five cents upward- i When the "worst" is said, the Uni ted States is still the most prosperous of all civilized nations, CORRESPOXDEXCE. From Praia- The Judge called at our house tbi week and whils there took occasion to remark that R. A. Booth, one of the best accountants in Southern Oiegcn is to establish a. ccm . erial department in cur State Normal School next term. Tommy remarked that this is a step in .i; .: : a .. n ' oi'ht to be no necessity for vouns men J - '""a going to Portland for a business edu- tion and now, that a man so competent undertakes the business, they need go no further than Drain, . Charley Sv says that he saw Huckle berry Finn and Tom Sawyer on a rait iu Elk creek. Tuesday, but I'm inclined to think it was a case of, mistaken identity, being only Will P. and Ed K. clearing the course for the. boating club which is organizing with Will P. for rear-admiral. Pete says that late, at night, you may hear Will practicing i.i the woodshed, making such blood-curdling remarks as: "Avast heaving! mv hearty! belay your jaw, and batten down your gab ports!" or l,I am your helm hard apart; and reef th gib boom spanker!" But'thetr, you ' know Pete1 probably overdraws the picture. Its a habit Pete has. Sol is sad aud lonely now, but hopes to console himself at Can by this week. The C of II. lodg expects to have a celebration on the glorious fourth, at the grove near Mr. Drain's residence. The oration will be delivered by Prof. Benson, the-poem by Judge Good ell, the reading of the Declaration of Inde pendence by R. P. Cheshire. Dr. Kuykendail will be president of the day. Miss Ida Booth left I's this week, to take charge of the public school at Eileusburg. Curry County. Hugh Call well, the gentleman book keeper for Drain & Co. left us this week to establith a busiu ss in Waila Walla. Our best wishes go with him. Our Jimmy is as beaming and benev olent ii ever, and his cheery voice en livens o;ir village once niuie. Ed Estes says that a Roman nose is a first ate thing to have, but when a raving madman .. undertakes to im prove its shape, there's no fun in it. I never had any experience of that sort, but after looking at E I's proboscis 'ui willing to take his word for it. The Oiegon State Normal school of our town bids fair to ke crowded with' prospective teachers during the coming year judging by the letters of inquiry that pour in Upon the-President.
