Congressman Luttrell says, with re-
ference to comments on his vote on the
salary bill, that he consulted and voted
all the way through with Hale, Cox,
Kasson and other leading members in
favor of the total repeal and of the re-
duction to the old pay of $1,000. He
and they voted against all amend
ments calculated to prevent total re-
peal, and therefore voted against the
substitute bill which was finally
passed, by one majority, fixing the
pay.at $4,000, an increase of at least
$500 per annum. @
Luttrell will, after the holidays, in
troduce bill granting two sections of
land per mile to the State of Califor-
mia to construct military wagon road

ty, via Sawyer's Bar and Arcato to

Camp, Del Norte county, to intersect
the main road at Orleans Bar, Klam-
ath county. The precedents for such a
