SOME of the true inwardness of the Or
egon investigation was struck last week
in the statement of fellow named
Lake, that he had been hired by one
Highly to make affidavit that he saw one
thousand nine hundred dollars paid for
a vote for Grover. Lake says he receiv-
ed for his affidavit an order for two hun.
dred dollars on the United States Mar
shal, and a promise that he should be
subpenaed to Washington and we'll paid
for going. A person named Williams
was secreted in the room where the traf-
fc between Lake and Highly was Conduc-
ted, and heard its particulars. Suborna-
ton of perjury is high crime, for which
the Oregon laws prescribe severe punish
ment and inasmuch as the administra-
ton of the State is in unfriendly hands,
it would seem to be advisable for the
persons who are conducting the "inves-
tigation" on these peculiar principles to
get out of that as quickly as possible.

REPRESENTATION IN COUNTY Con-
yESTIoNs.-In Iowa county convsn-
tons the representation under past
and present rules has been on a
basis of one delegate for every 80 of
all votes cast at the last preceding
general election, Under this rule
the several towns will have delegates
ia the next convention as follows:
Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1877-07-04
Total county

At the last general election Hayes
received ia the Northern District
1887 votes, and in the Southern Dis
trict | ,2G5 votes. The 1887 republi-
can votes in the northern district will
be represented in the county conven-
ton by 50 delegates, or one delegate
for every 23@ votes cast, while
the 300 republicans in the South
ern District will be entitled to only
~ delegates in the convention or
one for each 80 and ITO. Pur-
suing the subject still further the
Injustice of the present basis IS still
more apparent, for instance Clyde
which cast at the late election but
u Republican votes, has three dele
gates in convention, one for every
eight, while Moscow which cast 40
Republican votes has but 4 delegates,
or one for every 30l. Highland 4
Eden casting 1876 Republican votes,
get Is delegates, or one Tor every
1OI. while Dodgeville, casting o43
Republican votes, has but II dele
gates, or one for overy 81 votes.
Now, while we are perfectly will
ING to conccde all credit due to the
few sturdy Republicans who have
the misfortune to reside in the Dem
ocratic strongholds, and believe they
should be fttingly honored and rec
ognized in all proper ways, we do
not think the present basis ef repre-
scntation ought to continue or can
be defended as possessing any merit
or Justice. Who will pretend that
S Republicans of Clyde should have
as much influence in the County
! Convention as 30 Republicans Of
Moscow or tibet - Republicans of
Dodgcville ought to have only the
same power as l09 from Highland !
Yet such is now the case, not only
with regard to the towns mentioned,
but also many others. It would
hardly seem necessary to do more
than point out this evil to insure its
correction,
If it is desirable to have large
convention, as we believe, then the
basis should be fixed at say one del
egate to every - Republican voters,
for fractions exceeding l2), which
would give about the same number
distributed as follows:

acquired more freshness, and her voice,
which, since her last visit to New Orleans,
she has cultivated to a great extent aud
improved wonderfully. Her debut with
her troupe has been marked with noted
success, aud won for them the we'll
deserved %sympathies and admiration Of
the public.

Aimee, who appeared as La Grande
Duchesse," soon strengthened the claim
to the consideration Of the public aud
the applause of the house which she had
won at her last visit in New Orleans. She
il undoubtedly a vocalist Of cultivation,
and an actress Of ability. She possesses
that dash, which before her appearance
in the opera bouffe, had raised Mile
Schneider so high in the admiration OF
the Parsisn public, and in which, in the
opinion of some of the French critics,
she has surpassed her. "Dietes lui, the
gem Of the operette in vocal execution
was faultless, and together with the
drinking song in the last act took the
house by storm.

About W o'clock last evening the
alarm was given that the residence of L

Third, had been ~burglsrizsd and robbed
of sixteen hundred dollars in money and
three thousand dollars worth Of jewelry.
The detectives searched the premises
and examined the witnesses closely. No
mode Of entrance could be discovered
and much mystery enshraudsd the affair.
The detectives shook their heads and
concluded that there was some mistake
about the robbery, therefore they would
give themselves no further trouble as to
the matter.

Some excitement prevailed on Poplar
street, near Second, this forenoon, caused
by the escape of q white man named
Moore from two armed negroes, who had
arrested him this morning on the charge
of selling a stolen mule to a black man.
They were on their way to the station.
house with their prisoner, and as they
passed Mrs. Hurd's clearinghouse, on
Poplar street, Moore asked permission
10 60 in and see his mother. The darkies
kindly granted the request, and as Moore
entered the house another white man
shut and fastened the door, and refused
admittance to the negroes. The police
we're called upon, and they searched the
house, bat Moore had fed through the
back door aud up the alley and disap-
peared. The negroes were armed with
a rife and shotgun, and made the arrest
without any warrant, which warrant
however, would have been sworn out as
soon as they had placed the prisoner in
the station-house.
