WHAT A RETRENCHMENT LEG
STATURE CAN DO.
UFrOm the Ohio state JOurnal,l


We have shown repeatedly that the
late General Assembly of unhappy
memory, elected as an experiment in
retrenehment and reform, was a most
unfortunate experiment for tho State
one term that it SAT longer and drew a
larger per diem than any Legislature
ever before assem- bled ia Ohio that it
squaudered the peoples money reck-
Iessly, by direct appropriation and ex-
penditure; that, in addition to this, it
authorized and permitted larger local
expenditures than any other General
Assembly has ever dared TO do; and
as il these were not the utmost limit of
endurance, that it authorized and en-
powered County Commissioners by law
10 absolutely tax the people without
limit, putting it In their power to prac-
tically con6scate all the private prop
erty within their jurisdiction under
pTeteXJ of making certain public i'm
provements.
As part of the retrenchiug exploits of
this General Asse mbIy and its officers,
it is well to remem ber that @. B. Flood
clerk of the Senate and Editor of the
Ohio Statesman, draws pay during the
two years, for fifteen hundred aud seUe7e-
tgI sic days B007 k-Or, eight hundred and
forty-hve more days than there are days
in two years, inc uding all Sundays,
holidays, and resting days Of every
description.

THE NEXT OREGON SENAToR.-We clip
the following from the Dales Mountaineer (Re-
publican) of Aug. 9th. 1t says:
From information we have received from
the Valley, the Democrats are already prepar
ing for the next June election. They have
just purchased the Enterprise and have estab-
lished new paper in Corvallis to advocate
their doctrines. We believe that this is prin.
cipally being done by the friends of Mr.. Mes
NTH, and we should not be much surprised,
from present appearances, if he should be our
next U. S. Senator. In taking casual peep
at the political horizon in this section of Ore
gon, we find that Mr.. Nesmth has many very
warm friends in the front ranks of the Repub-
lican party. The work that he did for the
Dalles in having the U. S. Branch Mint located
at this place, and the speech he made in rea-
ton to having the Indians remain in the Civil
instead of being transferred to the War De-
partment are still remembered by many.

FIRE IN THE MOUNTAINs.-The following

FIRE IN THE MoUNTAINs.-The following
is from the Walla Walla Union of Aug. 18th:
We learn from gentleman just i'll from the
Blue Mountains, that there is a most destruc-
tive fire raging there. 1t is estimated that not
less than twelve thousand dollars worth OF
rails, cord-wood, posts, saw-logs, and other
kinds of cut timber has been already destroy
ed. while the damage done to green groves and
forests cannot well be estimated, and will be
felt in future more than at the present time by
the settlers in this Valley. Our informant says
the fire is very extensive and sweeps every
thing before 1t.
