Abuses OH the Pacific Coast.

CHICAGO, March 23.-Hon. ID. l.. Phil
lips, who spent some months in Califor'
MIA investigating the revenue and custom
service on the coast, reached this city
from Washington to day, and leaves for
Springfield tonight. Col. Phillips has
made full report of his observations to
the Secretary OF the Treasury, and this
report will undoubtedly be made the
basis of important action looking for
reformation of the abuses on the
Pacific coast. These abuses are the
inevitable results of the vicious
political system which gives the loyal
politicians the control of appointments
which should rest with the Executive. 1t
is more Objectionable on the Pacific than
elsewhere, on account Of the remoteness
of the States from the national Capital.
The officers have been used by senators
and representatives to secure their re-
election to and continuance in office. and
the responsibility rests on them instead
of the head of the government.
1t is understood that Col. Phillips has
not made the charges against individu-
ais but has placed the Treasury Depart
ment into possession of facts establish
ing the corruption of the present system,
all OF which are backed by reliable testi.

THE STATE SENATORS3IIP.
Mr.. VIM. IL. Tarr, of Brooke, Bronght
Forward.

Editors OF the Register
We are aware that your columns are
daily burdrncd with letters recommend
ing various candidates TO fill the numer-
Gus positions that will become vacant
within Il year, and that this practice of
crushing into print with this KIND OF
matter is becoming monOtonous. Still
we have name to propose, and will fur
ther trespass on the patience OF your
readers, with the following suggestion;
but before doing so, we will premise it
with the remark that We do not want
professional politicians; we want men
who rather avoid pubic stations, and
are Democrats from principle.
1t seems to be conceded that Brooke
county is entitled to the Senator from
this district. Hancock county having, in
the person of Hon. John Cunningham,
furnished the Senator for FIVE years past,
Brooke county, therefore, should have
the privilege OF choosing one Of her
own citizens 20 till this important posi-
ton; and we propose to present a man
who will command the entire Democratic
vote of this district. among several gen
tlemen of our county who have been
named in this connection.
We take pleasure IN presenting to the
Democracy of this district the name of
William Ii. Tarr, Esq OF Wellsburg, as
one eminently fitted to occupy a seat IN
our State Senate Mr.. Tsrr Is II gentle
man Of culture, GOOD business man,
highly respected in tLis community and
n sound Democrat Moreover, he Is not
An office seeker, but has preferred rather
to work quietly IN the ranks OF the party
and has never sought to obtrude himself
upon the public, But to those who are
intimately acquainted with him, he is
known AS IA maa of sterling good sense:
and one who if elected Senator would re-
feet credit upon has county, his party aud
himself:
1t may be thought presumpive to urge
this matter this early, but We are satisfied
that the longer Mr.. Tarrs claims are
canvassed, the higher he will stand in
the estimation OF the public. SYSx.

County Court-whiskey Politics
Fate OF an Old Correspondents.
PHILLIP, w. VA, March II, '76.

Editors Of the Register:
Having written to your valuable pa
per before, know you will pardon me
for this attempt. Last week and part of
this has been busy time here.
The County Court, which met on the
9th inst, adjourned on the 10Th. Quite
an amount Of business was done between
"naps" and the reading of the REGISTER
and for the honor OF our county be 1t
said, that l believe the first and only
conviction that has been had in our coun-
ty for the last four years, for selling
whisky was had, when we have had
enough drunk in that time to float one
of your largest Ohio river steamers, but
we are thankful for this. During the
sitting of the Grand Jury, both
of our editors were summoned before that
body. Our lighting editor" was taken
there to give an account OF breaking his
cane, while the other was supposed to
know something about the Phillippi
Whisky Ring.
Candidates for our county offices are
as thick rs black birds Lar d. Morrell,
throughout this section, is the peoples
chose for State Auditor, and to my mind,
no better man could be found in the
State for the position. Moreover Bar
bour is entitled to something at the hands
of the Democracy of the State.
w. 7. Ice will not be candidate for
Attorney General / learn that he is
almost the vi animous choice of the peo-
pie of Barbour for States Attorney, SO
count him out of the ring.
Major Roger was one Of the unfortu-
mates during Court, who stated as rea-
son for having case continued, that
there were two justices on the bench that
would not do him justice, whereupon the
Court fined him $40. Major Roger will
say what he thinks if it takes the bottom
dollar. l am glad to know that the
dignity Of the Court is on the rise, as |
have looked upon some OF them hereto
fore as ''dead-heads."

favorite for Governor.

call up and press for consideration, the
motion to reconsider the vote on the bill
fixing the salary of the President.
Mr. Christiancy said he did not care
to call up the matter. he had gwen
such notice the other day because he
thought some friends of the measure
wanted TO say something more on the
subject. he had no interest in its recon-
mendation only TO give the Senators in
favor OF the measure another chance to
speak.
Mr.. Wright said he would not now
urge the matter but he thought it should
be called up speedily and disposed Of

second section so as to make 1t read: such
return shall be counted, which shall be
duly authenticated by the State authori-
ties, and recognized by and in harmony
with the United States, as provided by

The question was taken on Mr.. herrl.
mans amendment and was declared lost

lowing amendment as an additional sec.
tion To the bill: To insure each State
the count of its electoral vote. except it
shall lie rejected, as provided for in sec
tion one of this act, it is the declared duty
Of each house Of Congress to record its
vote by ayes and nays ON all questions as
to what are true and valii returns of a
State, and it shall be the declared duty of
the presiding officer Cf each house to I'M
mediately forward TO the other a true and
detailed return of such vote. Should it
then appear that the two Houses have

valid returns, they shall Immediately re
assemble and the President OF the Senate
shall announce those returns as valid
watch shall have received majority of
all the votes cast in both Houses Of Con-
gress and considered as if in joint meet
ing assembled. Should it occur that the
aggregate vote OF both Houses be equally
divided upon the question, then and in
that event only the President OF the
Senate shall give a casting vote.
The amendment was lost; yeas II,
nays 81.
The bill was amended in its phrase
ology, without materially altering its
meaning, and the question recurred on
the passage of the bill.
Mr.. Hamlin asked the Senate to lay
aside the pending bill and take up the
Post Route bill. and the Senate agreed.
In commencing its consideration 1t was
ascerlaiDed that the Post Route bill had
been sent to the printer with the pend,
ing amendment.
The Senate then went into an executive
session and soon after adjourned.
