REPORT OF COMMITTEE
ON LOSS OF STATE SEAL.
Public Documents and Other
Public Property.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTA-
rIyTS March lS.ISsO.

Hon. Speaker Of House Of Representatives ::
The joint committee appointed on January
26 1880 to inquire into the matter of the loss
of the State seal and the loss Of official re-
turns and other instruments and documents.
beg leave to submit the following report:
Your committee first inquired what was
missing and found that the seal of the State.
the original records of the council for 1873,
all reports of Executive Council relating in
any way to the election returns of 1879, and
fluctuations of said returns. the combination
key to the safe and keys to all the drawers.
desks and cases belonging to the
Office of Secretary of State, were
missing. These articles however have since
all been returned by Prince \. Sawyer who
originally took them away. After the return
of all this property which had been taken
away. there seemed to be nothing left
for your committee to do except to discover
if possible the motives and circumstances
which prompted this removal Of property
from its legitimate place. To facilitate such
discovery, your committee summoned Prince
A. Sawyer, who after refusing to appear until
brought by an officer and refusing to testify
until driven by Imprisonment. at length sub
mitted and gave in testimony herewith sub
mitted and marked "A
Your committee felt justified in asking the
House to sanction stringent measures in
relation to the arrest and imprisonment Of
Prince \. Sawyer. for it seemed to them that
no leniency should be shown to man who
openly defed the legal authorities of this
State. 1t will be seen from Sawyer's testi-
mony that he took the State seal intending
to use it that he claimed at the time he gave
his testimony to be the legal Secretary of
State in open defiance to the opinion of the
Supreme Court; that as being the only per-
son who has openly defied the legal authori-
ty of this legal House of Representatives by
refusing to obey its summons until COM
PEELED to do so by arrest, Prince
A. Sawyer deserves the Indignation
of the members of the Legislature and the
people of the State of Maine. 1t will also be
seen from SumnerJ Chadbourne's testimony
herewith submitted and marked ''B." that
the office of Secretary of State was denied
of stationery and books, in a manner not ac-
counted for and by no means justifable
Very little work was done by the committee
in proportion to what they intended to do for
the simple reason that there was no necessity
for it after the property had been returned

Mining Interest Of Maine.

To the Editor Of the KenneJec ,youypny.
1t Is deeply to be regretted that man hold
ing the position Of Prof. Young of Bruins
wick should make such wild, reckless and
unjustifiable statement as he is reported TO
have recently made in a speech before the
House of Representatives, on a bill intro
duced to incorporate the State of Maine Con-
solidated Mining Company, and against all
mining enterprises in this State. Among
other unwise utterances. he said, Il venture
to say that nine. out of every ten mining
companies in this State are unmit,gated ir-
responsible swindfes." He also makes this
unqualified and rash promise, viz: 81 intend
to vote against every mining bill that comes
up"
We have long respected and honored Prof
Young. We believed in his moral integrity.

times when our State was passing through a

If this bill is to pass he should propose an
amendment that would make it effective.
Mr.. DINGLEY said that several good law.
yers had examined the bill. and he had no
doubt Of the collection of the tax should the
bill be passed. The fact that roads have lost
money is no reason why they should not he

Mr.. BRADFORD spoke of the reference of
two railroad matters to the committee on the
Judiciary. and said they should have been
considered by the Railroad committee that
we might have the excellent judgment of that
committee on the subject. His county was
not much interested in railroads, but he re-
garded them as of great public utility and
convenience. The question is whether VIC

MIR. BERRY said the gentleman from Wash.
ington had stated the other day that he had
not met with the complaint that people are
overwhelmed with taxes. His experience
was different from that. He lived AMONG
men who pay tax on every dollar of prom.
erty they own; men who cannot paw a cent
without feeling it. In the interests of these
men he spoke. On what grounds do these
great monopolies ask exemption? The only
argument he heard was that they are large
corporations He did not make any com
plant against lobbyists, but saw no necessi-
ty for the committee.
Mr. BRADFORD further spoke upon the

The FIfty-ninth Legislature Of Maine
adjourned last evening, after most re-
markable struggle at the opening in re-
gard to the organization, and the most
eyentful session known ia this State. An
organization was attempted On the 9Th 81
January, but an Illegal body secured pos
session Of the halls Of legislation and held
control until the 18th, when the legal leg
islAiare organized. Ise events which
have succeeded are known to all our PEG
pie. The attempt 10 u.urp the govern
rnent was completely foiled and the work
Of exposing and feFreGng or ihe conspir-
ators has been successfully carried On.
Under able management the business 81
the legislature has been well done. one
hundred and ninety-onc acts and seventy
one resolves have been passed. aud no
important interest Of the State has been
neglected. The republican members u
this legislature have covered Themselves
with glory, aud their constituents will mot

and devotion they have ey!nced in defence
Of the rights Of the people. Honor ai-'
