The Senate Refuses to Confirm the Appoint.
ment Of the Preachers Son.
WAsuISaroN, D. O., August 5.-The
President yesterday afternoon Withdrew
the nomination OF Herbert F. Beecher for
collector OF customs at Port Townsend,
Washington Territory. The name was
withdrawn after the action OF the Senate
in executive session had shown that he
was certain to be rejected. Senators Haw.
ley and Hoar were BeeCher's chief spon-
sors. When 1t was apparent that he could
not be confirmed Mr.. Hawley moved that
the nomination lie over till next session.
This was voted down by two.thirds ma
jority.
Rejection OF the nomination was inevi-
table, and the request was then made that
It be laid aside temporarily until the Pres.
ident could be communicated with. The
fact that he was son ol Henry Ward
Beecher accounts for the persistent though
numerically weak support OF bis friends.
Although the charges against him Of mis-
appropriating money were explained, they
were too strong to admit Of his Confrma-
tion. Senators Mitchell and Dolph, OF
Oregon, opposed him, and Democrats gen.
orally In the Northwest looked upon his
nomination with disfavor.

Thursday is the big Soldiers Day, at

Boys, take in everything but the gam

Jackson ought to organize drum corps.
We already have two bands.
Only organizations going in body can

Two hundred and twenty-five tents
have been put up for lodgings on the
Portsmouth grounds.
Every comrade should be on his good
behavior as soldier, on this trip-fOr the
honor of Jackson County.
Francis Smith Post goes down to Ports
mouth in body, and will march to the
camp grounds and break ranks. The boys
will probably take part in the big Sol
diers' Parade on Thursday afternoon.
Every member of the Jackson County
Posts should attend the Reunion at Ports
mouth. 1t will be the best chance to see
your old comrades ever offered in this
part of the State.
The Portsmouth Times and John K.
Duke are discussing as to whether the
President could have ordered the 18th

would have done it.

Our readers will remember an item con-
cerning Joe Kings experience here few
weeks ago. 1t seems that poor Joe can
not keep out of difficulty. The following
from the Columbus Dispatch, speaks of
his latest exploit:
"A disturbance of large proportions oc-
Cured last evening at the corner of Chest
nut and High streets. Joe King, a tre-
mendous fellow and very powerful, who
had some trouble with q workman in
Frank Behlen's saloon last summer, was
under the influence of liquor, in which
condition he has the reputation of being
a bad man. While in Charles McMillen's s
saloon, on High street between Spring
and Chestnut streets, he tried to raise a
fuss but failed. Leaving there he went
to his brothers saloon, John Kings, fur
ther north, near Chestnut street. Patrol
man Angle entered the saloon, when
King immediately began to abuse the Off
Ger, calling him vile names. The officer
attempted to arrest King, when a violent
struggle ensued. in which Angle was
thrown down. He blew his whistle, to
which Officer Charles Shayler. responded,
and ordered King to let Angle up, and
upon his refusing, maced him.
The officers then hustled their prison
er to the patrol box at the corner of Chest
nut and High called the wagon, when
John King appeared with brick in his
hand, threatening to crush Angles skull.
The officer drew his revolver, threatening
to shoot to kill if interfered with. An
| immense crowd gathered and became
very indignant at the brutal treatment
by the officers, as they supposed, and if
the patrol wagon had not arrived at this
moment there would probably have been
riot, as several revolvers We're displayed
Joe King was charged with being drunk
and disorderly and resisting an officer.
In Police Court this morning Joe
King, who was out on $15 bail, sent word
that he was unable to appear, and the
case was continued until Wednesday,"

On August 81, 1886. the children and
friends of Mrs. Susan R. FAIRIES, who lives
near Centre Point, perpetrated upon her
a surprise which was as agreeable as it
was unexpected.
1t was the fiftieth anniversary of her
birth, and she was spending the afternoon
in Jackson, with her daughter, Mrs. Nan
cy Welsh, and returning to her home to-
wards night found the house filled with
children, grandchildren and friends, until
there was scarcely room for the table
loaded with eatables prepared by loving
hands. The children and grandchildren
were all present except three or four who
were kept at their homes by illness. After
the supper, the evening was spent in So
cial enjoyment.
The following is list of the presents,
with names of donors:

One of the saddest things connected
with Soldiers Reunion-and perhaps
the only really sad thing-is the "letter of
regret" The brave comrades are scat
tered everywhere; some are able to at
tend; others, engaged in the great battle
of life, with the fortunes varying, now
victorious now almost conquered by ad-
verse forces, find it impossible to attend
the joyful meeting. Some of the "re-
grets" read as though the message were
torn from bleeding hearts. The whole
thing is unsatisfactory. 1t is some joy
to know that comrade is alive and in
reasonably good health. But the COM
rades want to see him, to hear his voice,
to look into his eyes.
Year by year the letters of "regret"
come freighted with deeper and deeper
sadness. Comrades are being mustered
out, terms are expiring, and the gather
ings at Reunions are composed of fewer
old soldiers each year. The lessening
numbers only make the bonds of frater-
nifty between the survivors the stronger,
and the memory of the departed more sa-

of the soldier that Overlaps all others in
Importance, and in the consolation it
furnishes. But let him feel that he has
done his duty, and all other things fade
into insignifcance. And, even in the
sadness of the reading of the letter of ere
gret" the joyful thought that the writer
was agood soldier, comes like a ray of
sunlight through a cloud. We may not
meet comrade now, but we may love
him still, and by the exercise of that 10y
atty be made better men ourselves.
