4 BILL has been introduced into
the Legislature to pay to the contrac-
tors of the Lunatic Asylum interest
on their claim upon which warrants
have not been issued. If our Legis-
lators wish to be just before they
are generous, they will renunerate
those who were victimized when the
Republicans ingloriously fed from the
House in 1865, and lett some of the
officers and employees of the State to
suffer by their recreancy.

MERrrEp PRusE.-Refering to Ore
gon and the legislature now in sess-
ion, the San Francisco Examiner
says: Gov. Grover, the Democratic
Governor of Oregon, delivered his
biennial message to the Legislature
of that State last Saturday. 1t is q
document which We have carefully
perused. 1t is tersely written, and
confines it's discussion to the busi-
ness interests acd welfare of the
State. It makes no illusions t.
party politics; not. however, from
any indifference on the part of
Governor Cover to the great ques-
ton that are now occupying public
attention, but from correct judge
ment of what he regards as approp-
rate in n communication from the
Executive to the Legislature, treat
ing of the general intesests of the
commonwealth.
Oregon is in s.,und financial con-
dition. Her debt has been nearly
extinguished. She possesses school
lands in such quantity that they will
enable her to found a system of
popular education which, if, proper
ly managed, will difflse in time
among all classes of her people
sound, practical learning.

the award to our government as

course Mr.. Fish will actually leap for
joy at an award which covers about
half the damages, to say nothing of
the disgrace and expense incurred in
getting it. That man has no sense OF
shame, on idea of national aonor, no
conception of what diplomacy means
and in fact very little of anything
which goes to make statesman.

says: lie has taken the stump in
Oregon for Greeley and reform. In
the early and better days of the party,
Judge Shattuck was Republican oi

SALEM, Sept. 80, 1872


Heigh-ho! Welll The long pent-
up agony is over the accouchment has
been successfully accomplished-the
Senatorial baby is born and named
JOHN HENRY MITCHELL. The mid
wives, Ben. Simpson, and bean.abdo-
mened Caples, have turned the pulling
infant over to the tender care of its
wet-nurse, Doc. Loryea, and its god
father, Mrs. Duniway, has christ ened
it, spanked aud chIckcd it in its little
bunk. 1t is already a promising
cherub, taking to the sucking bottle
with an avidity which promises n
rapid growth and development. This
early "hankering" for the bottle is a
subject of much qualification to it's
friends, as its mothers death in the
hour of childb birth caused many fears
to arise as to the ability of its friends
to raise the infant by hand.
On last Saturday night, after it was
fully settled that the baby would live,
its dissipated father, commonly known
as "Holladay Clique" had a wild spree
and Bachanalian carouse over its era
die, in the parlor of the "Chemeketa." :"
Whisky, brandy, gin, champagne, ben
zine, corn.juice and lizard oil" fol.
lowed each otherin n successive stream
down the capacious throat of the JOY
infuriated father, until at last his
poison n-swelled tongue refused
longer to give utterance to his maud
lin expressions of felicity, and, with
tobacco juice and whisky pouring
from the corners of his mouth upon
the bespattered swaddling clothes OF
the babe, he sank into a drunken stu.
por beside the crib, where he lay in a
dreamless slumber until the Sabbath's 5
sun hal rolled his FURNISHED chariot
halfway up the ETHEREAL pave.
This disgraceiul exhibition is only
excusable upon the ground that this
is the fathers first born aud the last
hope ofhis declining years. Although
the fathers course has been one oi
wickedness and crime, it is hoped that
this promising infant may develop
into something better and purer, aud
strive in his after life to dissipate the
already expressed fears that he may
have inherited the baser features oil
his projenitor's nature, and be curse
rather than blessing TO the world.

UNDER the announcement that the
"ball is rolling" Mrs. Duniway says
"Susan Il. Anthony has gone to Wash
ington to appear before the Congress
ional Republican Committee" We
are not certain that we comprehend
the pertinancy of the remark.

herents of the fortunes of the nepotic
and corrupt Ulysses. With this opin-
ion, as well as with conviction,
based upon good foundation as the
sequel showed, that he could not be
elected, majority of the Democratic
members preferred to cast their vote
for representative man of their own
party. Those Democrats who voted
for Mr.. Corbett did so with the firm
belief that his election over Mitchell
would be a great blessing to the peo-
pie. Those who did not vote for him
had reasons fully as potent and patri.
otic, aud so it would be unwise and
unjust to cast even shade of censure
upon either class. None but those
who have been here during the whole
of this contest can have anything like
even remote idea of its singular
features, hence TO attempt TO cast
blame upon any one because5o of the
success of tho monopoly ring would
be uncharitable.
Below We append Mr.. Corbett',
letter OF withdrawal, from which it
will be observed that Democrat,
could expect but very little politica
benefit from his reelection:

ne incidents anu eScitements At
tending the Senatorial contest have
given place 10 the pleasures and fes'
tiyitics of the State Fair, and this
week is one of hvlicst interest TO
thousands Of people here as we'll as
of largest profit TO the Salemites.--
At the opening of the Fair il was
feared that the attendance would be
much smaller than usual, but at this
writing ('rhursday) the gate receipts
are said to have been quite as large as
at this time last year. The stock ex-
hibit is much better than We have ev-
or before observed here, especially in
tho line of cattle. 5. G. Reed, OF
Iamhill county, is the most proml'
nent exhibitor in this department, and
has on exhibition the most superb lot
of cattle we have ever seen collected
together upon the Pacific coast, and
indeed very few OF the great State
Fairs of the Mississippi Valley eau
afford pretticr exhibition. furnished
by one individual, than is displayed
IN the stalls OF Mr. Reed. Ills stock
is all imported and comprise the
Short Horns, Attorneys, Ayrshires,
and others of the choicest breeds OF
old Albion's downy meads aud luxu-
RANT valleys.
The ''phog" der ar,ment is full and
choice, demonstrating that Norval's
father, on the Gramphion Hills, was
not the only individual in the world
who takes special pleasure in bringing
the poetic and ephemeral 'porker' to
the highest state Of porcine perfec-
lion.
We never saw the poultry depart
mcnt so full or choice as it is here
represented at the present time.
From the slick and coquettish dung
hill pullet TO the spurred and kinghtly
Shanghai, and from the demure and
modest "ducksey" to the cynical,
braggart gander, all may here be
found in sufficiently large numbers
and varied qualities as TO cause Chi
naman to forget his heathen gods, or
Methodist preacher to dance sail
or's hornpipe in the ecstatic thought
of a feast upon their roasted corpuses.
The horses, sheep, Angora goats,
etc., are all tolerably we'll represen-
ted and make an average showing in
their classes. The Angora goats, be-
ing a new feature in the stock line of
this country. naturally attract great
attention and elecit many comments
as to the probability of their success
full raising in this region. Not being
an "Angora goatist" to any great ex-
tent, we forbear inficting an opinion
upon our readers as to the matter.
The pavilion shows less attraction
this year than usual, although there
are here sufficient articles of rare and
beautiful handiwork to attract the
eye of the observer and reflect credit
upon the skill and taste of our Ore
gon ladies.
have no time to write further at
present. The Fair attracts the at
tention of the statesmen and poten-
tates of the Legislature, as we'll as
that of the common fry" and per
consequence the legislative mill
grinds slowly and in spasmodic jerks.
Two weeks of the session will remain
after this week, and it is expected
that during the time of their exhus-
ton the wheel will spin with light
ming velocity. M. V. B.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 7.-Inc following
is q synopsis of the fourth annGc; 70
port OF the board of Indian commission.
ers : After three years working of the
peace policy, the board find cause for
congratulatiOn that their anticipations OF
success in their attempts to civilize the
nomadic tribes have been 50 far fulfilled;
that there is reasonable assurance that
the object IN view is being rapidly at
tanned. The operations of the new sys-
tenn have called into life confidence in
the justice of the whites. The Indians,
therefore are more disposed TO help
themselves. Nearly five-sixths of the
Indians of the United States arc now
either civilized or partially civilized.
The various fraudulent means which
were formerly carried on, from which
large fortunes were speedily made, arc
now nearly abandoned. Instead Of pay
ing thirty-six per cent. more than is re-
ceived. the government receives full val.
ne for the money appropriated and the
Indian gets all he is fairly entitled to.
The various religious denominations
have expended large sums in Christian
izing :the Indians, and success has been
marked. The board, during the three
years of its existence, have travelled in
the performance Of their duty more than
q, 800 miles.
The Sioux and other tribes on the
Northern Pacific Railroad arc generally
well disposed. The Indian Territory,
with . smaller area than any Of the
Territories, has population exceeding
any. With the exception Of New Mex
leo and Utah, it has moro acres Of land
under cultivation than any other in the
United States. This efectually disposes
of the statement that there is IN unrea-
sonable amount Of land lying idle there,
as compared with other portions Of the
United States. The board deemed il q
matter of congratulation that the public
opinion of the country is 90 rapidly
crystalizing into purposes Of justice and
humanity.
