Vol. xix. Astoria, Oregon, Wednesday Morning, July 18, L883 No. 93. THE BUCKEYE CANDIDATE. Reminiscences of Cronin and "Gob ble' The nomination of Judge Hoad- lv on the Democratic ticket for sroyemor of Ohio serves to recall some incidents in his career. He was a protege of the lato Chief Justice Chase, and was, of course, in early life an ardent Free-soiler, sympathizing in all the views and plans, of .his illustrious patron. Like Stanley Mathews, he made a great many turns in politics, and always had a keen scent for the main chance. His early promo tion was largely due to Chase, the latter helping him to a judgeship. In later years Hoadly has been a Democrat, and rather a prominent politician. He has been aspiring to the office of governor of Ohio for at least twenty years. He has finally obtained the nomination. The Commercial Gazette, of Cin cinnati, in a recent reference to the memorable contest between Hayes and Tilden, freshens the recollections of the party which Hoadly took. Oregon had chosen Republican electors. One of the three was a postmaster, who was voted for, and although he resign ed the office for the purpose of re moving the disqualification, and did remove it, by that act, he be lieved that the Democratic House of Representatives would raise some objection to his qualifica tions. He therefore resigned the office of elector. The Commercial furthers refers to that episode in the political history of the country. "By the law of Oregon the dis qualification of the man who had received the majority of the votes yacated the office. By the law the other two electors could fill the vacancy. But the time was turbulent; the Tilden-Pelton ciph er telegrams were flying about; their emissaries were hurrying forth to attend to the canvassing boards and to the electors; the election had got so close, that with the TOto of Louisiana for Hayes, a single Republican elector convert ed to a Tilden elector would elect him; it was in the air that a single vote might make a poor man rich beyond the dreams of his fancy. Oregon had a Democratic govern or, who, with Cronin, a candidate on the Democratic electoral ticket, plotted to fabricate the Democrat ic electoral vote for Tilden. This was the time and this the great cause in which Judge Hoadry leaped to the front as the great Democratic lawyer, first by writ ing two letters to Governor G ro ver, counseling him how to work the thing, and then by publishing a long law opinion to prove Cronin an elector of the President, although the people had not elect ed him." Hoadly furnished the law to Governor Grover. Cronin was a mere cat's paw to pull the chest nuts out of the fire. Tilden's nephew was alert. There was a great deal of telegraphing from near Tilden's office to an officious helper in California. The latter telegraphed that a certain sum of money was necessary a round one in order to bridge over the gulf. Tilden's man promised to pay the money, but was slow in handing it over before he had the electoral vote in hand. "Grover expected to carry out the plot by means of having the returns of the election of electors in his hands, anil giving them to Cronin, but this was thwarted by the secre tary of state, who gave certificates to;the men that were elected." These electors met and chose another in the place of the one whojhad resigned and the elector alote of these three were finally counted by the commission. Cronin and the two commissioners he had appointed proceeded to vote in the electoral college. The votes were sealed up and formally indorsed by Governor Grover. Hoadly appeared before the Elec toral commission and argued for the -admission of the Cronin elec tor .vtes. Leading Democrats hsdVctmitted that these votes were fraudulent. The electoral com-' mission heard Hoadly patiently; argue his law position. But it de- the singular changes the state of cided that the votes could not bei Iowa has undergone. Originally, admitted. The three Republican j by virtue of the djscovery of Mar votes were admitted a.s the legal j queue, Iowa became a possession ones, and this decision made ! of France. Afterward it was trans Hayes president. As a fragment ' ferrod to Spain by secret treaty in of political history it is of ome . order to prevent it failing into the interest just now, when the chief j power of England. By the treaty law adviser in Tilileirs interest is of St. IMefonso in 1S00 Iowa le- the Democratic candidate for; governor of Ohio. : The Oreyoniun learns that the j Kalama branch is being pushed j with great rapidity, and is quite as far advanced as the engineers and the contractors hoped for it at the start. The work of grading and bridging is first-class. Two locomotives and two trains of fifteen cars each, have been landed on the grade; one at Columbia City and the other at Richard's landing, a few miles above. They are well equipped with track-laying tools and appurtenances, and the work of track-laying will probably begin this week. Plans for inclines near Kalama, and for the terminus on the Oregon side, have been finished, and woik "will begin without delay. The chief engineer of the Oregon and Trans- continental company, also the j ing serious was anticipated. l)e tcrmiual company said that he ceased was born in Bridgeport, was using every effort to Conn., on January 4, 1838. At the have arrangements for transferring j age of 14 years he entered the serv trains across the Willamette and across the Columbia at Kalama completed before the last spike of the Northern Pacific is driven. Transfers will be made temporari ly upon barges. He hopes to be able to take the train bearing Mr. Villard and party, with transfers over the two rivers, through to Seattle. The great ferry for Ka lama is due about the middle of October. The contractors, Smith, Bros. & Watson have six months , time in which to put her together. 1 A San Francisco dispatch of the lGth says: Hon. Geo. AV. Bullis, j one of the most extensive lumber' dealers of Michigan, who owns a j vast forest near Manistee, returned j this morning on the steamer On- (on from Puget Sound where lie ) has been inspecting the timber belts. Mr. Bullis says that rain is an absolute necessity in that re gion, as extensive fires are now playing havoc with the forests. He represents that the country I about the Sound as not only one j of vast timber resources, but inex- j haustible mining and farming; wealth. He predicts a speedy- settlement m both Uregon and WidHnn-tnn 'I'orrWnM. -.i.l .JtL Y aSHington I Cl I ltot y, and with tlin Wf (,1-iks ,f ,.TH., At ' - ,. .... . Portland, Astoria, Seattle and Sa- j lem, the rush is unprecedented, ! and every available acre is being: rapidly picked up. j Reports from Sonora, Mexico, are to the effect that Apaches arc rading the districts of Montezu mah and San ITariha, committing murder, stealing cattle, etc. A special from Oposura. states that a band of twenty savages attacked the hacienda of Parepia,.six miles south of Oposura, killing three men. The intelligence is brought that Colonel Bandola, stationed here, who started in pursuit with thirty Mexican troops, found the bodies of three men, and kept on the trail. It is positively known that twenty murders have been committed by Apaches in the neighborhood of Oposura since Crook took their families from the Sierra. Madres. it is now stated that the long tunnel at Cow creek will be fin ished by the 20th of Augus'r, and as all the other grading is nearlv completed to Ashland, the people of that town have hopes of the steam engine and trains to their town by December. The crossing of Rogue river will be a very ex pensive piece of work. The en gineer of the Oregon end of the work and the engineer in charge of the California part met not long since and together they selected the point of meeting of the 'two roads. It is about two miles south of the state line. Men are now actively engaged on both ends of the Siskiyou tunnel. Iowa. It will surprise many to learn ofj came French soil once more.
