puili-neS the following. II may be
supposed that the tase referred t. is
local one, and yet the Statesma,., If
It wanted To give the matter the
keonest possible point, ought TO pc
more specific and furnish the names:
Is II the proper thing FOR federal
officer to draw from the government
$40 per day on the plea that his
family lives so miles away from his
official headquartersS What should
be thought of the government that
would audit and allow such charge
when the federal officer rides on q
free pass.
The foregoing notice We copy
from the 0re9oaiaa of Oct 4th, inst.
Il evidently refers to Rufus Mallory
who pretends to reside at Salem BY
boarding his wife at hotel at that
place while no lives in Portland.
He Is enabled to make the charge the
Statesman alludes to by going tc
Salem every Saturday and Wedaes-
day nights and returning TO Portland
on trains leaving on the next follow
Ing days. If this Is the man referred
to(and of which we have no doub,) We
desire to know It fully. We have
heard complaints Of this kind before
and trust now to hear the facts. Mr.
Mallory has taken great pains 4
make himself prominent as politi
cal reformer. He has blistered hi
Democratic adversaries all over b,
the application of his very great el
oquence aud virtuous denounclatlon
And now it comes out that he hai
stopped 10 things his political enemies
would scorn to do. Let Us have thu
facts. Let US hear from Rufus III

In his own party. circumstance with
which the editor of the 0reyonia,

Allow me space In your paper &,

that paper's travelling correspondent.
In his report OF our Fair be was
very unjust. In some respects he
was right, Just enough to give coll
orlng of truth 10 the whole letter.
Our pavilion was better flied this
year then ever before, and there was
as much stock as usual excepting cut

premiums wero large enough aud
were Justly awarded, but IL certainly
Is not In the power OF the Society
to make 4 minute horse trot u

s."
Az to his "general reflections" on
crime II IL hardly probable that he
would be considered competent
judge. He came out TO the grounds
on "Wednesday morning on foot, and
looked as IL he had been up all night.
He stated that he had lost his ticket
and wanted the Society Ia pass him
In. lie evidently thinks that the
Society did not show him sniIicIent
courtesy, and l wish 10 remark right
here that his reception would have
been great deal warmer had he
been In a condition fit tb be presented
70 & gentleman or lady. As IL was,
the special police officer Of the ground.
came near placlng him under arrest.
After his departure II was probably
ascertained where he lost his compli
mentary ticket. a ticket was pre-
sented at the gate by "a noted 'soiled
dove" Of this city, who said he had
given IL TO her representing II IA being
worth sl.60. lfs had evidently run
short OF money while on jamboree
the night before and turned Ia hi,
ticket as 30 much cash. II Mr.. IL.
had visited our T. air one day later,
when all the entries had been made,
and had been Ia good mental con-
dltion his letter would no doubt have
been written In a different style.
