[Head ] In Remembrance of Dr. S.L. Leneve. 'Tis hard to break the tender cord When love has bound the heart, 'Tis hard, so hard to speak the word Must we forever part? Dearest loved one, we have laid thee In the peaceful graves embrace [sic]; But thy memory will be cherished, Till we see thy heavenly face. He has gone from his dear ones his wife [sic], His children, Whom he willing toiled for, And loved as his life. Oh, God, how mysterious And how strange are thy ways, To take from us this loved one, In the best of his days. A loved one's voice is hushed in death, A faithful heart is still; A place is vacant by the hearth None other e'er can fill. His precious words of hope and cheer, His tender loving care, What sacred memories cluster here, Around his vacant chair. Our dear friend, loved so well, Has passed from us away, To dwell 'mid scenes of heavenly bliss, Among angel chair for ayes [sic], Forever hushed his earthly voice, To us so sweet and clear; And, oh our home is loner now To see his vacant chair. --Maud Flanders + = machine novelty-wood?

Port Orford, Or, May 5 -- June 9 will mark a memorable event in the history of pioneer life on the Pacific Coast. Fifty years ago, on the morning of June 9, 1853, there landed on the beach just below the hills where Port Orford now stands nine men, whose thrilling experience constitutes one of the most interesting chapters of Oregon's pioneer history. Battle Rock, visible from every part of the town and far out at sea, by reason of its location near the center of the beautiful crescent harbor, is separated from the shore by about 30 yards of smooth beach, under water at high tide. It rises like a huge whale head toward the sea, sides perpendicular, to a height of 75 feet. The rock tapers into a narrow path over its brek [sic; = back]. On top and commanding its approach, there is a flat surface of 150 yards in length by 75 yards wide, wide [sic], now mostly covered with a scraggy [sic] growth of myrtle and dwarf pine. Captain William Tichenor, evidently attracted by the beauty of the harbor, the vast forests back of it, and its favorable geographical location to the Southern Oregon mines, concluded to start a settlement, lay out a town, and build a road to the mines. The scheme also lured nine young men, whose names were, respectively, J. M. Kirkpatrick, J. H. Eagan, J. T. Slater, George Ridoubs [sic] [ M 2006 as also in Dodge's History; but in another place Dodge has Ridoubt], T. D. Palmer, Joseph Hessey [sic; Dodge has Hussey], Cyrus W. Hedden, James Corrigan and Erastus Summers. They sailed from Portland on the old steam propeller Sea Gull, Captain Tichenor, June 4, 1853, landing at Port Orford June 9. Their entire armament consisted of one United States six-shooting rifle, three old flintlock muskets, one old sword, one 38 caliber revolver, one pair derringers, about 50 pounds of powder and 10 pounds of bar lead, and one old brass cannon taken from the Sea Gull. Few Indians were in sight when they landed but Captain Kirkpatrick though the youngest of the party, took a proper estimate of the situation, based upon his knowledge of Indian cunning, for he had had the benefit of association and training with that most famous Indian fighter, Kit Carson. Captain Tichenor continued his voyage to San Francisco, promising to return in 14 days with more men and provisions. On the following morning, June 10, a party of Rogue river Indians, accompanied by a big chief in a red shirt, came up the coast in a canoe, and, landing on the beach, began preparations for an attack. The chief, beginning with a preliminary flourish of his big knife, indicating to the men on the rocks that he xas [sic; = was] after their scalps. What follows is best told in the Captain's words, as follows: "The brass connon [sic; = cannon], commanding the approach, was loaded with two pounds of powder and two handfuls of lead slugs. The fellow in the red shirt drew a long knife, waved it over his head, gave a terrible yel, and with at least 100 of his braves, started for us with a rush. I stood by the gun, holding a piece of tarred rope with one end in the fire ready, as soon as the Indians crowded on the narrow ridge in front of the cannon, to let them have the contents when it would do the most execution. The air was full of arrows, coming from 100 bows. James Corrigan had picked up a pine board about 15 inches wide, eight feet long and 1.3 inches thick. He stood right behind me and held the board in front of us both. Thirty-seven arrows hit the board, and at least half of them showed their points through it. Two of the of my men [sic] were disabled. Palmer was shot through the neck and was bleeding badly; Ridoubt was shot in the breast, the arrow sticking in the breast bone, making a painful wound, and Slater ran and laid down in a hole behind the tent. This left six of us to fight it out with the Indians who still kept coming. When the crowded on the narrow ridge, the red-shirted fellow in the lead not more than eight feet from the muzzle of the gun, I applied the fiery end of the rope to the priming. The execution was fearful. At least 12 or 13 men were killed outright, and such a tumbling of scared Indians I never saw before or since. "The gun was upset by the recoil, and we never stopped to right it, but rushed out and at them, and soon cleared the rock of live warriors. Then we counted 17 dead Indians on the rock. And this was the bloody baptism that gave the name "Battle rock" to our old camp at Port Orford, on the 10th day of June, 1851. "Incredible as it may seem, there were two warriors that passed the crowd and were not hit by any of the slugs fired from the cannon. One, a big, strong looking Indian, made up his mind that he wanted my scalp; he rushed at me with a big knife. Corrigan shot him in the [M. break in printout] came on. He made a slash at me with his knife, which I knocked out of his hand with my left. When he grappled for his knife agian [sic] I pulled one of the derringers and shot him in the head, the ball entering one temple and coming out at the other. He then turned and ran 20 feet, falling dead among the Indians killed by the cannon. "The other brave went for Eagan whose musket missed fire, as the Indian was in the act of fixing an arrow in his bow. Eagen hit him over the head with the barrel, bending it. Stunned from the blow, Eagen jumped at him, took away his bow, and then jumped back, turned his musket and dealt him three or four blows with the butt, knocking him entirely off the rock into the sea. "The next day a parley ensued, resulting in a truce. The Indians were permitted to carry off their dead, about 23, except one, the fellow in the red shirt. An Indian gave the body a kick and with a grunt left it. This excited the curiosity of the party when, on closer inspection they found that he had been a white man -- a former Hudson's Bay Company man. Ship-wrecked and rescued by the Indians he had become one of them. They themselves buried the body on the beach later on. The Indians disposed of their dead by burning them. "The party repulsed two other attacks later on, each led by a big chief, picked out by the defenders' unerring rifle in turn, the death of each chief resulting in utter demoralization of the Indians. But each day brought more Indians to the scene; they guarded the white men closely; but the white man's strategy was superior to the Indians' cunning. All of the party escaped. Traveling by night through a wilderness of forests and swamps, with a few sea biscuits for food. They followed the coast line, crossed the Coquille river, and reached in an exhausted and famishing condition on the Umpqua, where Empire now stands. There they found a few white men on the other side, who, launching their boats, took the nine ragged defenders aboard, set sail, and just as the sun was setting, July 2, 1851, they reached their haven of safety. After resting a few days, Dr. Joseph Drew and his associates took the party up the Umpqua, to a place, now Scottsburg, where they landed July 4. There they separated but Cyrus W. Hedden, one of the nine heroes, settled down at Scottsburg, where after half a century, he still lives, and where, while looking in his garden, the white haired pioneer related his experience to the writer. Battle Rock stands today as it did 50 years ago; but no memorial no tablet marks the scene of the bloody tragedy, where a handful of white men fought a battle for civilization, blazing a path to the sea for future generations to follow. Would it not be appropriate on this, the 50th anniversary, to erect a memorial tablet inscribing the names of the heroes and the date of the battle of June 10, 1851, to serve as an historic landmark for future generations? -- H.

[sub] Reward Raised to $1000 – Small Hopes of His Capture – Sheriff Gallier Explains. Reports of all descriptions have been in circulation regarding the whereabouts of Landis, but all trace of the murderer seems to have been lost until Tuesday, when Sheriff Gallier received a telegram from the Sheriff of Lane county stating that Landis had been seen and identified, in the Siuslaw country, by someone who knew him well. As Landis formerly lived in that neighborhood, it is very probable he will remain there for some time, and as the country is not very thickly settled the chances of capturing him are very few, at least until he thinks it will be safe to come out and make for other parts. Word was received in town, Saturday, that a man answering the description of Landis had been seen in Dairyville that morning. Dave Johnson and Dave Carey immediately left for there, but no trace of the suspect could be found. They returned Wednesday. News received in town, Saturday, that a man supposed to be Landis had been arrested at Elkton, but the report has since proved false. Upon receipt of that news Deputy Sheriff Ed Gallier left for that place, whereabouts are not known at present but it is supposed he has gone on to the Siuslaw. Much blame has been attached to Sheriff Gallier for ever allowing Landis to leave Coquille City, but in a conversation with Mr. Gallier, yesterday, he makes the following statement: “That at the time the body was discovered and suspicion pointed to Landis as the murderer he went to Attorney Sinclair (who acted as deputy District Attorney in that case), for advice in the matter, and asked if a warrant for the arrest of Landis, on suspicion, could not be issued, and was informed that he had better wait until after the inquest. A few hours later he again asked Sinclair about securing a warrant. Sinclair then stated that Landis could not be held on the stat4ement of the McQuigg boys who stated that they had seen Landis burying the body, but to wait and see if more evidence could not be secured. In the meantime Mr. Gallier had parties shadowing Landis, and supposed that as Sinclair was an attorney and knew the law in the matter, he was doing his full duty. If Sinclair knew that Landis could be held why did he not inform Gallier to that effect and not otherwise?” Four hundred dollars was raised by subscription this week for the capture of Landis. With the $500 offered by the county and $100 by Sheriff Gallier, this makes a total of $1000 reward. Too much credit cannot be given the McQuigg boys, who found the body of Eudaily, for their promptness in reporting their discovery to the authorities, and but for them Landis would no doubt be enjoying the respect and society of respectable people with no suspicion resting on him and no thought of his being guilty of so fiendish a crime. Various remarks have been made lately as to the unreliability of these boys, but as everything points to the truthfulness of their statements, and until Landis is captured and proves himself not guilty, their story stands as facts. + War racism-origin CoqB 12 June 7, 1901 Some reports about Boer War, allied troops in China, etc. Tot-Coq name-Lyons health-provider-indir city-official CoqB 12 June 7, 1901 City council report; [lists a number of well known names].

At any rate he got off the cars at Beaumont, the an [sic; = then an] obscure and unknown place, as it was still before the discovery of oil near there. He located where he thought he would be as nearly out of the world as possible, and to have room around him free from molestation he bought a thousand acres at merely a nominal figure. But the poet was not to have the long-sought resting place in which to spend his declining years. All around him the great gushing oil wells have been discovered. Several of them have been bored on his ranch and "Joaquin" of wandering fame has been made immensely rich, probably a millionaire. He is happy as a lord. Once before he made his fortune on Wall Street and as quickly lost it. His new fortune has already made him liberal as usual usual and he has already announced that he is bequeathing his California home, "The Heights" with 100 acres near Oakland, to the school children of that city. The home will not be surrendered right away -- as his mother, who is very aged, and his children will use it for some time.

Invalidism, which she has borne with cheerful fortitude, deprives her of many pleasures which she would otherwise enjoy. She was the daughter of James A. Saxton, a prominent hanker of Canton, Ohio, and was born in that city. In the public school there and later in a private school in Cleveland, she obtained her preliminary education. Then she attended for three years Brook Hall Seminary in Media, PA. Six months of travel in Europe completed her education and she returned to her house in Canton an acknowledged belle. Her father, a man of practical ideas, said, "She must be trained to earn her own bread if necessary and not to sell herself to matrimony." So Miss Ida Saxton received a place in her father's banking house, and it is said of her that her face attracted boquets and notes in her window. She had many suitors, but Major McKinley, then a rising young lawyer, was the most highly favored. He won her hand and this acknowledgement from her father. "Major McKinley is the only man I have ever known to whom I would entrust my daughter." They were married on January 25, 1871, in Canton. It is said that in the early days of their marriage she said [sic] that Major McKinley would some day be President of the United States. They went to house-keeping in the home which has since become famous. Their first child was born on Christmas Day, 1872, and was named Kate. She lived to be three year [sic] old. The second child, named Ida, died in infancy. At about the same time, Mrs. McKinley's mother died. The shock brought on a long illness, which left her an invalid. Partial paralysis had resulted and since then she has walked with difficulty and some times she has been unable to stand. She was extremely ambitious for her husband. In Washington for many years as te wife of Representative McKinley she was greatly admired. But it is as the wife of the President and the first lady of the land that the deepest interest has attached to her life. She is fond of children and at one time wanted to adopt the little daughter of her seamstress and nurse, of a poor widow. She also desired to adopt Miss Grace McKinley, the orphan daughter of the President's brother James. She leaves [sic] music and flowers passionately. She is denied the delight of reading to any great extent, but is fond of books, and the President spends much time reading aloud to her. She is deft with her fingers and crocheting is one of her chief enjoyments. Mrs. McKinley was reared a Presbyterian, but became a member of the Methodist church. At dinners her wine glass is always turned down. She always sits beside the President; even at state dinners, when custom assigns the President's place at the table opposite her. President McKinley will never allow anything to separate him from his wife when she is able to attend public functions. The President's devotion to his wife is a touching tribute to her. --Ex. + = Timber fair-expo OT-Buffalo RR-haul RR-phy Locale-Oregon boomer machine?

These timbers have been the cause of considerable worry among Exposition officials, and for some time it looked as if they would have to remain on the tracks or be shipped back home. This the Oregon commissioners declared should not be done, as they had been brought by the direct request of Director-General Buchanan, who had promised to move anything in the way of a log that Oregon could furnish. Col. Dosch, who is the general superintendent of Oregon's exhibits, says he did not bring the biggest he could find, but when the two he did bring arrived here the Director General was non-plussed. One of them is a sawed log, thirty-four inches square and seventy-four feet long. The other is still in its rough state, is not so long, diameter of six feet. As the railroad tracks could not be extended to the Forestry Building, the only feasible plan for moving the big timbers was to put them on rollers and move them with a powerful windlass. + Saying timber OT-PA machine log invention CoqB 13a June 14, 1901 The sound of the woodman's ax [sic] may soon be a thing of the past.

Carson, an experienced mining man of Northern California, and recently superintendent of a mine in this district, has applied for a patent on a new process for the manufacture of steel, which he claims to have perfected. Carson states that he has been approached by a large Eastern steel organization with an offer of $600,000 for the secret, provided the patent is issued and tests are satisfactory. A testing plant will be established near Chicago. By the use of the Carson process, the inventor states that steel of a quality much superior to Bessamer steel can be produced. + Natl-filler racism natl? world saying CoqB 13a June 14, 1901 The Chinese question isn't settled yet.

Coquille, Or., June 10, 1901. Ed. Bulletin. – Dear Sir: -- In your issue of 7th inst., you make a labored effort to lay the blame on the escaping of Landis to me. There are some matters connected with the case I deem of sufficient importance to call your attention to. The McQuigg boys did not see Landis burying the body. They said in the first instance that they saw a man about 6 foot high, dressed in black clothes, who was fifty years old or more, digging a hole. When the body was afterwards found and thought it was Landis. This description in no way described Landis. They claimed they were within thirty feet and saw him plainly. This was about midnight of the night the body of Eudaily was found, and I think Mr. Gallier is mistaken when he says he saw me two or three hours afterwards. At that time I stated that I would not advise issuing a warrant then, but suggested that they keep watch on Landis, and if he attempted to leave town to take him in. As to the issuing of warrant on inquest procedings, see Sec. 1666, Hill’s Code of Oregon, which provides that warrant shall issue after the findings of the coroner’s jury are made. In this case other testimony was taken after Landis had escaped, which pointed to him as the guilty party, and the McQuigg boys then swore positively it was Landis they saw. Then on section 1576, Hill’s Code, which says: “A peace officer may, without warrant, arrest a person when a felony has in fact been committed and he has reasonable cause for believing the person arrested to have committed it.” Using similar language to your own: “I supposed the sheriff knew the law in the matter, and would do his full duty. If Gallier knew that there was reasonable cause for believing Landis guilty why did he not arrest him when he attempted to escape. “I am not to blame for not calling the sheriff’s attention to the law defining his duties; as he asked no questions, and I presumed he knew he could arrest without a warrant. It is no new thing to arrest without a warrant. It has been done in felony cases here in this county before. “It is an unfortunate affair, but not an isolated case, of a criminal escaping by any means, and to try to make the public believe I am wholly responsible I consider unfair and not warranted by the facts and circumstances.” Very Respectfully yours, Walter Sinclair.
