restitution &c the bank, but drew
other $4,000 from the State Treas
ury in bis capacity as hospital stew
ard, put that money in bis pocket,
and left the State to pay $4,000 Of
Hospital accounts which he had re-
ceived the money for. To recover
this amount, Mr.. Mills has been sued
on his bond, and as his bondsmen
are good, and the law and equity
plainly on the side Of the State, there
is every ground to hope that the
case will result favorably for the
people. Seeing this the Legislature
is asked to interpose and donate to
Mr.. Mills the $4,000 Of the public
money which he now illegally holds.
The only excuse offered for the re-
diculous proposition is that Mr..
Mills having served as hospital
steward without pay, an appropria-
ton Of $4,000 now would no more
than compensate him for his serv-
ices. There was no salary attached
to the position by law or practice.
Mr.. Mills was willing aud anxious
to serve, and undoubtedly made
enough out of the large sums Of
money in his hands to richly com
pensate him for his time aud trouble.
IT'S to be hoped the bill will be Kill
ed by the Assembly, If not it will
serve as monument Of folly and
wickedness ia the Legislature Of
1879, which no member who sup
ports it ought ever 60 get from the
shadow Of.
The successorship to the seat Of
Angus Cameron in the United States
Senate is beginning to be whispered
about. Until within the last few
DAYS it seemed to be accepted that
Mr.. Cameron would not be a uandi-
date, and that Keyes' chance was
first best; but recent indications are
that Angus wants TO be endorsed,
which puts different phase on the
matter, as every Republican con-
cedes that Mr. Cameron's course has
been so uneXceptional that claim
presented 10y him cannot safely be
ignored by politicians and will be
recognized as just by the people.
The calling Of the State Conyen-
ton in May to choose delegates to
the National Republican Congen-
ton, is generally accepted as wise
aud Just to t be friends Of all aspi-
rauts for Presidential Lonors. The
rames of Blaine aud Grant are often

tble fact that the German Republi-
cans are solid for i. h Washburn

CAPITAL NOTES.
MApIsoS, Feb, 10th, 1880

that the 10th Of March will see its
labors ended. Although none Of
the most important measures were
disposed Of, some progress was made
on most of them, and many minor
matters were placed at rest, few
10y passage and many by indifinite
postponement. Which is important
as clearing away rubbish prepare
tory to active engagement with mat
J ters Of moment.
The biennial session resolution
has passed the Assembly by nearly
% unanimous vote; and many are
houeful that it will also pass the
Senate. Friends Of the measure say
there are II senators committed to
its support; being just the consti-
tutional number required. With
such a small margin we fear there IS
danger, for from past experience it
is known that every Legislator cam
not always be depended upon to do
as he agrees, and should only one of
the seventeen DO absent when the
vote is taken tho consequences viii
ne fatal to tho measure.
The proposition to increase the
rate Of taxation of Railroad COM
psnies will be reported against by
the committee, and probably not
pass. The railroads have strong
Hobbies here opposing the measure.
Their plea is that they are faithfully
obeying the law as it Is, thus rec
ognizing the right Of the Legislature
to regulate them that their present
tariff rates yield no more than a
fair profit on capital invested that
hence the proposed increase of tax
alton would be unjust, and deter
them from continuing and inaugur-
atiug many important extensions
already begun and determined upon.
The people have no lobby nor law
yers representing them, which Is
urged by the railroad men as an
= 4
evidence 'ha' there !" no se"efa' "e-
mand for the proposed iegtslation'
We have given the matter Too little
attention to speak positively Oh 'h3
merits OF the question: bat have q
lreJIdice that an increase Of one
per cent would not MAKE the tax
Oh rmiroaos out Oh ptopoFloh 10
that on other property
Our present opinion is that neither
of the Hills to reduce the rates of
interest viii become law. The fact
that money is being loaned through
out the state every day at to S per
cont. is n strong argument against
anv meddHne with the interest laws.
