says the Courier, can be seen at the

training, during which time the bird
was kept in dark place and had q GER
tain tune played 10 him several times a
day, the little singer did actually. sue
ceed in initiating the familiar melody,
and can now be heard all day singing
this song, very seldom forgetting his
training to fall into the old canary bird

will be a rare treat to all lovers of bird

THE OREGON SCHOOL LEND COMMISl
SIONERS.

The Legislature of Oregon, two years
ago, preferred charges of uralfeasance
ii Office against the board of School
Land Commissioners. This Board was
composed Of, Governor Grover, Secre-
tary of State Chadwick, State Treas
urer Brown, and I. IL. Cam. Grover
was accused of using the school money
for private purposes, and of disposing
of school lands at nominal price to
ring of which he was member Suit
was brought in the Circuit Court of
the Third Judicial District against the
members of the Board of Scheol Land
commissioners, and the Court appoint
ca Judge Deady referee. He finds that
Chadwick, Secretary of State, as
member Of the Board, during his eight
years administration, audited and al
lowed claims not authorized by law,
amounting in the aggregate to the sum
If 81, 229 OF, and that with interest
MS liability amounts to 49, 60.
The courts will proceed at once TO re-
cever this sum. This crookedness on
the part of the Secretary of State was
supposed to involve much larger sum
than the referee finds to be due the
State, and the political capital made
out OF the fraudulent transaction by the
Republicans had much to do with de-
feating the Democrats at the election
nst June.

GUESSWORK AND FACTS.

The Eureka Leader, in explaining
show it happens to know more about
political affairs in the South than
prominent Republicans who reside in
that section, says it ''guesses at it, as
we do when we say Garfield is guilty ct
all the cussedness and wrong-doing that
is charged upon him by the Democratic
press" The Leader has the indisputa-
bic right to 'tguess" at the political
situation three thousand miles away,
but it should not state its ''guesswork"
Us facts. What we have said about
Garield's wrong-doing is from the
sworn testimony taken before the
Poland Investigating COMMITTEES in
1873, and the findings of that COM
Hiittee, which contradicts General Gar
Geld's evidence and, shows that he &C.
aepted bride from Cakes Ames, or
periured himself. There is no guess
work about this assertion. We have
copies of the New York Tribune print
ed in January and February, 1873, con-
tanning the evidence taken before the
Roland Committee, and the findings of
Tiat committee, which everybody, who
Soabts the truth of what we have stated
n regard to the matter, can see. The
SILVER STATE does not guess at any
thing it has to say about the charges
against General Garfield, and it hopes,
Coz the honor of the country and the
great party which has given him the
nomination for President, that he can
satisfactorily explain the discrepancy
between his evidence and the findings of
the Poland Committee. If publishing
General Garfield's sworn testimony and
tie report Of the Poland Committee
Is treason, the Leader should remem-
Der that Garfield himself, aud Judge
Roland's Committee, majority of
whom were Republicans, and not the
Democratic press, first made it public.
Tie SILVER STATE, as the Leader is
aware, has had very little to say about
General Garfeld's connection with the
Credit Mobilier and De Golyer jobs. 1t
opposes his election on the enlyprinci-
piles involved in the campaign that con-
cern the people of Nevada. These are
the Silver and Chinese qsestions, and
the Leader will not even ''guess, much
less dispute, that he has not opposed
both. His votes are recorded in the
proceedings Of the House of Represent
atives in favor of sustaining the Presi-
dents vetoes of those measures, and
that ought to be sufficient to defeat
him in Nevada, whether he is guilty or
innocent of the Credit Mobiier aud De
Golyer charges.
