I Royal Regulation . . .
A fighting Irishman, Col. David
Dunbar, was ordered over to the
American Colonies in 1727 by
England's King George I, with
the title of Surveyor General and
the duty of enforcing a new law
on timber cutting in Massachus
etts.
I Th? law harked back to October
7, 1690, forbiding the felling
of trees above two feet thick on
all Massachusetts land that had
been granted since that date. The
big trees were to be kept in re
serve for his nibs, German
George.
The new royal regulations took
in, of course, the noblest white
pine forests of them all, for
wooded Maine was yet a district
of Massachusetts. Th-> business
of the royal bull of th? woods.
Dirty Dave Dunbar, (as some call
ed him), was to enforce observ
ance of the “broad arrow” brand
on standing pines, which the
colonists had been resisting for
nigh on a hundred years.
In no time Dirty Dave was in
hotter water than any Federal
Prohibition sleuth of the 1920s
or OPS agent of our time ever
had to endure.
Th? Surveyor
G neral was a past fort com-
mander, and then as now an
army fort was the spot to find
government regulations at their
worst. Probably th? land that is
now the U. S. A. has never known
a more bullheaded bureaucrat
than Dav- Dunbar. He began to
shove the colonists around and
it disturbed th?m.
Swamp Law . . .
The colonists of the backwoods
had a law of their own, and
“swamp law” they called it. Gov.
ernment Woods Boss Dunbar col
lided with it when he sent depu
ties on a slim to Exter (N. H.) to
confiscate lumber that had b en
cut in part from broad arrow
brand pines.
The agents of King George 1
and his surveyor general relaxed
I in an Exter tavern, after anchor
ing in the tvenlide. They were
amazed, and then beguiled, by
lavish
hospitality.
Staggering
forth at last, they were attacked
by a horde of “Indians”, who
beat the tar out of them
with green elm clubs all the way
to the water.
Tattered and bloody, stained
with elm sap, the government
men took their boats and rowed
for their ship. There they found
the riging and sails cut down and
a hole chopped in the ship's bot
tom. The agents, sober and even
more scared by this time, piled
into their boats again, made shore
hid in the woods, then toiled
afoot back to Portsmouth, look
ing out sharply for mor? "Indi
ans".
City, County Men
To Ask Questions
A meeting of all city and coun
ty civil defense directors in Ore.
gon will be h"ld Wednesday, Oc
tober 29 at the Capitol building
in Salem, it was announced by
Robert Sandstrom, administrative

defense agency.
Th? statewid? meeting, second
one of its type, will be devoted
principally to a question-and-
answer period for local directors.
During the morning session,
there will be discussions on the
federal match money program;
volunteer registration campaign,
scheduled November 11-27; and
legislative proposals.
Service chiefs from the state
civil defense office will have per

Against Arrow and Stamp
The story has vastly more to
it than can ever be touched on
this, space. Back of it was a long
political and legal conflict
tween representatives of the
onists, led by Elisha Cook,
and the authority of th? Crown in
Massachusetts as represented by
the former surveyor general,
John Bridger, and Go v "mor
Samuel Shute.
The colonists’ cause was a re
spectable one and the laws that
developed about it were much
more than the “swamp” law of
the squatters. The fight against
the woods was really the birth of
the American private enterprise
system in opposition to domi-
neering bureaucracy that ruled
arbitrarily by remote control.
Resistance grew steadily against
government regulation of for-
est use, rising in the southern
colonies against royal restrictions
on the growing of naval stores,
In time there were authorities
who described enforcement of the
broad arrow as a more power
ful influence than that of the
Stamp Act in bringing about th?
American Revolution.
