at once regards and treats him as an enemy.
He also regards all who give aid or patronage to
his rival, - foes, and hates them with an i'm.
placabls and vindictive hatred from that hour.
But this same envious man, when in straight
eped circumstances, will crawl in the dirt to
implore from others the very assistance, and
will pretend to the most abject thankfulness
for the very favors he afterwards denies to his
benefactors the right to extend to others. We
have in our minds eye as we write one Of the
very worst specimens Of this despicable class
of human and business denominations. A few
years ago he was in poverty. and began bust

TIE Woman's whisky crusade has reached
Portland. Large numbers of women visit the
saloons and wholesale whisky houses daily,
holding prayer meetings and singing psalms.
The average Portland tippler, if we may judge
BY his conduct. a. described BY the Bulletin, is
proud of being q drunkard; and instead OF

that we have heard of. have the ladies been
treated 90 badly. excepting Chicago, and even
there tho demonstrations Of the mob were not
more blackguardish and reprenehsible than in
Portland. For our own part we have no faith
in the efficacy of prayer to overcome the drink

time immemorial, and 90 far as we can judge
has accomplished nothing but our doubts nor
the doubts of others can form no sort of argu-
ment against it's employment BY those who be-
lieve in it, and that the ladies who do employ
prayer as means of abating the alcoholic vice

more than we doubt that their efforts are tor

orrrcrAL INsoLENCE.

We wrote letter Of inquiry. , few day. ago,
to the Territorial Comptroller. asking him, if
not incompatible with HE official duties, to in.
form 10 why the portion Of school money
claimed BY Oneida county was paid without an
investigation being first had. and received in
reply letter in which stupidity and isolence
9 with each other for supremacy. We had
thought any person was entitled to call upon
public officials tor information concerning any
matter relating to the duties ofan office in which
all are interested. and that the disbursement OF
the Territorial school fund was matter about
which the public was entitled to beinformed Our
object in writing to the Comptroller was to en-
able US to give satisfactory reply to party
in Oneida county who wrote to US for informa-
ton, as he had right to DO. We publish our
letter and the Comptroller's answer to it below.
also his letter to Mr.. Ensign on the subject 1t
will be seen that that official fatty charges the
Superintendent of Oneida county with fraud;
says to Mr.. Ensign that he has the facts con-
corning it in his possession. and then bubbles
in his attempts to be satirical upon US. saying
he has not possession of the Territorial school
money. It is true that he has not actual pos
session of the money, and We deem it fortunate
tor the Territory that he has not; but it is also
true that he has constructive possession OF IT,
and that, legally, not dollar OF 1t Is
paid out except upon warrant from the Super
intendent Of Public Instruction. There may
come time when insolent ignorance will not
be permitted to cucumber so many OF the OH
ces of this Territory as now. His statement
concerning the amount paid to the Statesman
for doing the Territorial printing We disbelieve
The Comptroller's letter will serve to inform
the people of Oneida county both Of the reason
WHY their Superintendent received the school
money, and Of the fraudulent position oil
some of his pretended friends. wh" have
made a public blow Of their faith in his late
school report. and have privately denounced II
as a fraud 1t may be that the report
il correct: it may be, also, that fraud
was practical without the knowledge OF Mr.
