In the early days of Oregon, when
the Hudson Bay company controlled
the commercial business Of the north.
west coast, with headquarters at Van
cOuyer and a branch store at Oregon
City. Thomas Mckay, son of a Hudson
lay man by a Red river Indian wo-
man, who subsequently became the
wife of the philanthropic DR.. Nc
Loughlin, went owe to the Tllamook
country on a trapping expedition as a
servant Of the above named company.
In his wanderings up and down the
coast range he found an aged Indian
woman of the Tillamoo tribe, who
told him that she witnessed the com
ing ashore of the Spaniards, whom
tradition credits with burying a chest
Of treasure at the mouth of the Ne
halem river. The woman informed
Nc Kay infinitely as TO the place the
treasure was buried, and at his i'm
portunity went with him and pointed
out the place she had described.
Ii was a rule of the II. Il. company
that anything captured By a servant
Of the company became at once the
property Of the company, and the Of
licials OF hat then all powerful cor
poration, learning that Mckay had
been prospecting for the said treasure,
arrested him and subjected him TO a
rigid examination 10 make him dis
close what he knew about it. To all
their questions and threats Mckay re-
turned but one answer: Il did not find
any treasure"
Mckay afterward settled on French
Prairie, and some years later built a
saw mill on Butte Creek, on the pres
eul site of SCOTS mills, where he
hcrded a large drove of Spanish cat
lc. He sold many of his cattle TO the
immigrants for beef, but he is credited
with a big heart, and carly settlers
say hegave away much more than he
sold. Many persons believe that Nc
Kay found the Tillamook treasure, as
ne always had plenty Of money and
spent il lavishly .-Portland Orego-

THAT MESSAGE.

e On the evening Of The lAst day the Legis.
lature was in session Governor Stevenson
sent special message 10 the House, censur'
ing the members for not passing Bill So, in.
troduced in the Senate and drawn up by a
special committee. The bill is known as the
Revenue Bill, and was very lengthy affair,
containing Sc pages. 1t passed the Senate
by vote Of IS to 0, and the chances ar.
not one Senator out Of the twenty read the
bill entirely through and understood exactly
what it would accomplish. 1t is certain that
no, over six Of the Asscmbiymen thoroughly
read the bill as it came in very late. just
when there was considerable work to be
done, and it looked to many as though it
was trying to be railroaded through, if it go,
through at all. l, was indefinitely postponed,
which virtually killed it, and on this ground.
the Governor took occasion to send his high.
ly insulting especial message." The bill
may have contained some good things. Ger
tain it Is that it contained som. bad provis
ions. AS a member of the lower House we
noticed some sections of the bill that would
make more trouble than they would do good,
and we are willing to take our share of the
blame for the non passage Of the bill.
When this especial message" appeared
in the House and was read, Asselnblyman
Cheney, of Eureka, Immediately moved thai
it be expuaged from the records. The mo.
ton met with dozen seconds, and upon
vote being taken the motion carried by
vote Of n to -, and the celebrated "spec
ial message will never appear on the Journal
Of the House. After recess was taken
second attempt was made to spread the mes
sage on the Journal, but the proposition
was lost by vote of FL to IA.

FINIs.

The Nevada Legislature Of 1889 adjourned
last Thursday evening at half past eleven
o'clock sine die. Daring the session Of
sixty days some good work was done, in
fact there was very little poor work done,
although there's probably not member who
would not like to have his vote back TO cast
the other way on some particular measure.
A large number Of the Acts passed are sim
ply amendatoiy to laws already on the. Stat
utes, and what new laws have been made
we consider good ones. Many appropra.
sions were made, but they were all for good
causes, and the money has not been thrown
away. e.
The appropriation for building reservoir
on the Carson river was the largest one, be-
ing $ioo, 900. The next largest was $4S. 900
for the State University At Reno. All OF
this money we consider will be well spent.
The storage question is one that has been
aeitated for years past, and although the
appropriation now made will not be s,ffic-
lent to complete such work as will be neces-
sary, it will be starter in the right direc.
ton, and when the benefits derived from
this first attempt become apparent to the
people, we doubt not there will be more
money appropriated each session after this
for this purpose. Each successive Legisla-
ture should do something in this line, and
in few years the State will have improved
wonderfully.
Another good move in the irrigation line
was the artesian we'll bill. This bill will
make it an object for each county in the
State 10 form an Artesian Well Company to
prospect for water. The bounty, il water is
found, is liberal. The law will be printed
at length next week.
Altogether number Of good laws were
made. 1t was out Of the question to abolish
stud horse poker or to- further restrict faro
games, although they are as much worse
than a lottery as smallpox is worse than
chickenpox.
1t was noticeable fact that no member
desired to see any Act passed until it was
thoroughly discussed, and all measures con
templated to mix up matters were generally
promptly sat down upon.
