Mr.. EDITon:-
SiR:-I saw in your paper of the 3D.
of this month an extract taken from the
Milwaukee Sentinel, and other remarks in
addition, stating that the late Convention
voted themselves extra pay. This is false.
! The facts are as follows: BY on act OF
Tie Legislature the members Of The Conven-
ton were allowed two dollars each per
day-ihey were 20 days in convention
they were paid $50 dollars in cash, being
25 days pay; for the remaining 4s days,
they received 500 in scrip, said scrip
being current only at so cents on the dol
lar, and several thousand dollars Of ], has
been sold not exceeding 30 per cent. The
Convention considering it right and just
that the Territory should pay wha, they
prom: sod, voted S2l and so cents more in
scrip 10 each me:nber-:o,al scrip. S1lT
and 80 cents. which being so4 nj 80 per
cent. So the whole illegaliiy ard inj esi'eo
Of the Convention in respect TO pay a.
mounts 10 .his ibat they receiv only So
for the remaining AZ days instead OF 500.
Ir The editor Of the Sentinel or any other
editor wishes to bay Convention Scrip al
par, LET them publish it before they And
fault with the Convention for knowing that
the iaborer is wosihy of his hire
