- r"'m" f--i)t for freedom, for
Oregon's Senator. j humanity,, and in the hope that
"Caix
no man happy till ho
dies," said Solon, thus tersely
voicing the thought of all ages,
that posthumous 'fame alone does
inctfop to tne-'meinorv and the
merits' of men. ' .
Among the many names that we
of this coast delight to honor, not
even the name -of Broderick, of
California, excites more reverential
lemembrance'than that of Colonel
Baker, United States senator from
Oregon, who fell; as the world
knows, while .leading his men in
the fight at Ball's Bluff, Ya.
On the 30th ult., Congressman
George, of this btate delivered the
Decoration Day. address at Balls
Bluff, and, in a eulogy of the gal
lant snint, ho said: ."Ho was
a wonderful man One of thoscgen- j
iuses of nature which flash thwart j
across the skv of human existence, i
,-,., - , . ., i i ,' , i it
Offoreign birth.he laid down his life
for the 'country of his adoption.!
We were proud of him. .My state,
the most distant on the golden Pa
cific, honored him with her highest
trust. He was our senator when
ho fell. We are proud of our fol-tlicrOur-prator,
our statesman, and
our heio. Baker was patriotic and
magnanimous. His was the clar
ion voice in the grand volume
of invocation which everywhere
rose to high heaven, "Spare
us from the madness of disunion
and civil -warj" and he wns'the lastl
of the senators to give up the hope
that something might be done by
conciliation and compromise. He
hoped, he sympathized, lie strug-
gled to the last, but alf in vain. At
the linnl moment he nerved him
self for the desperaii- encounter.
Iniho sendte,tn thfce wnrdshe pro
claimed his intentien: 'Now,' I will
not vote to lay down arms till, with-
out treatythe flag of the United
St-ites waves over overy "portion of
its territory. Till then give the pi esi-
dent a million men, rnve him the
whole revenue of the government,
the whole property of the people;
do not refuse a single regiment; do
furl a single sail; do not abate a
single- jot of all your embrittled
vigor till that hour has ceme: do
-not
make peace until the glory of
the American flag shall be its own
defense. Why, sir,' he exclaimed,
'I have heard it said that theie was
a time in Ireland when a virgin,
alone, unguarded, could ao through
all its length and breadth with'a
crown upon her head and a golden
v.iso in her hand, arid no man dis
turb her honor or rob her of her
treasure. I desire, before I make
- peace, to see the time when a vol
unteer drummer boy shall be able
to carry the flag of tlio United
States in eiery city and in every
wilderne-s where it has once float
ed, amid the enthusiasm, the sub
mission, the profound reverence,
of ever' man, woman, and child
who-gazes upon its stars.' Ho,
like Clay and Webster and Jack
son and Lincoln, was for trying
thestrength of the constitution. His
soul became fired with military ar
dor at the attack upon Sumptcr's
walls; and At a mass-meeting in
Onion Square, in New York, he
delivered an address which thrilled
the souls of all who heard it. Ho
there pledged bis porsonal ser
vices to his country as a' soldier,
and closed "with these impressive
and eloquent words, which wore
greeted with' a tlfunder of ap
plause: 'And if from the far
Pacific a voice feebler, than
the feeblest muruiur upon its shore
maybe heard to give you courage
and-hopo in this contest, that voico
is yours today. And if a man
whose hair is giay, who is well
nigh worn out in the battle and
toil of life, may pledge himself on
-such an occasion as. this,. and in
such nnaudience 'let me -say, as
mv lost. word, when amid sheeted
fire and flame 1 saw and led the
ho'sts'oFNew York as they charg
ih contest-upon," foreign soil for the
honor of your flag, so "'again, if
Providence shall will it, ; this -(coble

for law, for government, for consti-
" T , J ""'" au"

ner waves there glory may pur
sue and freedom bcestablished.' '
It is a sad coincident, inview of
the eloquent oration delivered by
Cclonel Baker, in California, on
the laying of the Atlantic cable,
when he joyfully proclaimed that
"thought had bridged the Atlantic
and cleared its unfettered path
across the sea, winged by the
lightning and guarded by the bil
low," joining Europe and America,
and calling, as he did, for another
Field to scale the Sierra Xevadas
as ho had sounded the sea, until.
the. Atlantic and Pacific had lt'-
linked together. That, Mugulni
as it may seem, the first mesiage,
a few years after, flashed actors

Ttist So.
Talkino about advertising, and
the too prevalent practice of beg
ging people to advertise, the New
Tacoma Ledger sensibly .is: "If
men do not believe in advertising,
if they do think it necessary for
the promotion of their business
and it is not infrequently the ease
that newspaper advertising would
be of no benefit why seek to
force it upon them? Are they not
the best judges of their own busi
ncss, seeing that they have better
acquaintance with it both end-ally-and
in detail- than anv one
else? Do not force it, do not press
it, for your own personal reputa
tion as a man of spirit and
pride in a professon which
should rise above the calling of
beggaiy. Mako a good paper, put
eapitai of labor and coin into it. so
that it will win circulation and bc-
comu tvamamo as an auverusinir
mcriium. Ivven announce the. iact
and declare that it is valuable, if
you can truthfully doso, just as men
declare that their groceries and
drygoods are valuable, but in the
name of Heaven, for your own
sake and for the sake of a huge
number of worthy people in your
profession, do no! button-hole
your neighbors and whine like a
weak cur about giving ''support"
to the papers asking them for an
"ad." .It is contemptible. It is
outrageous. It is outrageous that
every time these neighbors yon
have whined to and button-holed
and bored meet with a newspaper
man they look upon him with con
tempt, and are free with him,
think ho has no money, and le
gard him as a proper person to
make a butt on all occasions, and
to belittle in many ways.,J

Tin: Democrats of California
Ifavu nominated General Stone-
man, of Los Angeles, as their
candidate for governor at the en
suing election. The piominent
contestants were IIearst,who30 only
claim was that he owned 820.000,
000 worth of property, and John
son, who based.all his strength on
tho fact that he wasa"C. P. man."
Stonetnan is a rarity in these days,
he is positive, honest, with clean
hands, and a good record, and rep
resents tho better element of Cali
fornia politics. Thr.ee years ago,
under the new constitution
craze, there wero three rail
road commissioners olected ,
J3eer9tetober, of .. Saii Francisco,
Cone",' of-Red Bluff, and Stone
man. The first two fell down
beforo tho potent" influonce
of the sack; Stonetnan was
not purchasable, and voted in the
minority. He deserves credit, and
will bo a hard man to beat.
