Some Reform Observations.

Gazette: $3.50 for printing all of
which goes to the Mitchell Printing
Co. Can you understand now why The
REPUBLICAN is so valiant defender of
the city government?
Per contra, can you not also under
stand why the reform organ is SO bitter
in its attacks on the city government?
If the official proceedings of the county
board are sufficient to close its yawp
about county corruption, what proper
tion of that $3.50 would shut off its pres
/ Sent howl?
& But granting that the entire $3.50
goes to The Mitchell Printing Company,
4 which is not the case, what has that to
do with the charge that Mitchell is
misgoverned, unless the Gazette can
show that the city has not had value
received for every dollar it has paid for
printing?
~
The Gazette believes there has been
not only carelessness and extravaganza
in CITY expenditures but it believes that
there has been worse, and it proposes to
show this matter up. 1t will not be
hurried in the matter either. 1t will
90 only as fast as it can lay its hands
upon the facts.
It hasn't been in much of a hurry, to
be sure. Three months ago it revived
certain charges it had made year OF
two before but as yet it has made no at
tempt to sustain them. 1t still contin'
ues to threaten what it is going to do,
but if it had been really sincere it would
have followed up its first attack by facts
and figures which were just as accessi
BILE to it then as now. Itdid not need tt
wait for any reply from TIE REPUBLI
CAN as it has done. utitcould have gone
right to the city records for the pas
ten years and got full details OF every
item of public business transacted il
that period. But no; that was not the
point. 1t was evidently The REPuB
L1cAN it was after. SO it might rehash
lot of campaign chestnuts. Three week
have elapsed since THE REPUBLIcAl
printed the figures upon which isebaset
this years appropriations and calle'
for specifications of corruption or eS
travagance, but instead The Gazett
pleads the baby actas follows:
The Gazette recognizes the fact tina
1T is great deal easier to see and kno'
that there has been extravaganza i
the use of and misrepresentation OF pull
lie money than it is to prove thes
things.

The absence of the three supporters Of
the third party movement allowed the
meeting to progress harmoniously, A
plan of campaign was outlined. 1t was
decided that the Alliance congressman
should introduce bills to put on the free
list all articles considered as necessaries
to farmers, and by securing the passage
of these measures to SO reduce
the revenue that a deficit in the
treasury would be created. This much
accomplished the Alliance members
would compel congress to issue legal
tender treasury notes to recover the
amount of the deficit, security to be fur.

accordance with the subtreasury plan.
The Alliance men will have another
meeting next Wednesday night to dis
cuss the subtreasury scheme.
The report of the split is confirmed by
Messrs. Simpson, Watson and Otis.

1t is understood that the Mount Hood
and Barlow wagon road company, intend
making an effort during the next session
of the legislature to obtain renewal of
their charter across the cascade range.
People in the valley consider that toll
road is an absolute menace to Mount
Hood as pleasure resort, and an un-
necessary tax to parties crossing the
mountains from one side to the other,
and hold that the Barlow company
should not be permitted under any cir
cumstances, especially when the privi-
ledge of collecting toll is asked for, to
renew their charter. 1t is alleged that
the company has been tried for many
years, and found to be utterly incapable
of returning an equivalent, in the way of
improvements, at all proportioned to the
amount of money collected. 1t would,
in fact, says a correspondent, ''be an
outrage to grant such a petition under
existing circumstances. and do not be-
lieve the citizens of Wasco and Clacka-
mas counties would stand it, if the mat
ter was called to their attention. l am
interested in preventing the collection
of toll, and would like the cooperation
of citizens in Wasco county" Our cor
respondent is Mr.. w. @. Steel.

Senator DOlph's bill for the retirement
of Judge Deadly after the 4th of March,
if the judge so desires has been favora-
bly, reported upon by the senate iudici-
ary committee. In his remarks making
the report, Senator Mitchell paid Judge
Deadly very handsome compliment,
saying: "M. P. Deadly was, the 18th
day of March, 1858, appointed by Presi-
dent Pierce an associate justice of the
territory of Oregon, under which ap-
pointlnent and a subsequent appoint
ment of February 1sC, 1854, and con-
firmatiOn by the senate the 9th day of
February, 1854, he served as such asso-
ciate justice until the admission of
Oregon as a state. February 18th, 1859.
The 7th day of March, 1859, lie was ap-
pointed by President Buchanan, and
the 9th day of the same month con-
frmed by the senate United States
district judge for the district of Oregon,
and under such appointment he has
served in such capacity to the present
time, q period of nearly thirty four
years, making a continuous service as a

years. 1t has further been made plain
TO your committee that by reason of
bodily ailments which are permanent
Judge Deadv has been rendered physi-
cally unable to longer perform the duties
of such Office. 1t is further shown that
he will not reach the age of seventy
years until the year 1894; therefore your
committee, while recognizing the dis
ltinguished judicial services rendered by
Judge Deady during his long service
and his eminence as a jurist, and in
view of the foregoing facts, report back
the bill and recommend its passage

FOR BETTER COUNTY ROADS.

Throughout the United States the ag-
itation for improved highways is in
creasing and there is every reason to
hope that great advances in this direc-
tion will follow. The meeting this week
at Indianapolis, of Indiana advocates
OF better country roads has awakened
new interest in the subject in that state.
But there is danger that wrong be-
ginning will be made in this most praise
worthy work. Indeed, wrong begin
ming has been made in New York. A
bill recently passed the Albany legisla-
ture that provides for a board of COM
missioners of state roads. This board
will be charged with the construction
and maintenance of highways outside of
cities and incorporated towns and a
a state engineer is to have general super
vision of the proposed system. Thus
far the bill is all right, but in providing
for loan of $40 ,O0O, 900 to carry on the
work it makes departure from estab-
ished custom in road-making that has
not alone the sanction of immemorial
usage but of sound economic reason as
well. II mas Deen the general practlce
in some portions of the east, to apply in
country-road making the same principle
that has governed in the construction
and maintenance of the public streets.
The cost, in one form or other, has been
assessed against the land in some rela-
ton to the benefits conferred by the i'm
prOvement. Such an act would not be
considered sound in a ''sparsely by set
tied country" as the roads are common
to the use of the public and it would be
unjust to assess the cost of making to
the lands living adjacent unless the state
devised some method, after the improve
ment has been once made, to keep the
road in repair. We are rather favorable
to the plan proposed by the Indiana
congress and should be pleased to hear
of similar action in Oregon.

hauled and the Willard put her
blunt, pugilistic nose against the
stern and pushed.
Slowly the big Missouri began to
back out into the stream. Just at
this moment gold-capped indi-
vidual raced frantically down the
pier and made frantic spring for
the vessels side. 1t was the stew
ard of the ship. He won the race
by nose, as they say in racing
parlance.
In the meantime the look
ing old pilot stood on the bridge,
muffled like mummy. and made
vague and mysterious motions to
whom it might concern to shift
the Vessels nose around a triAe.
Slowly and majestically the huge
ship swung out into midstream and
pointed her nose down the river.
The spectators stood on the pier
and waved their hats and tried to
forget that it was cold. 1t was
noticed that the vessel had a
slight list to port. This, however,
will be remedied before the ship is
far out. By the time the Missouri
had rounded the corner. of the pro-
jecting shore and put her sharp
nose into the cold, gray seas of the
bay the pier was deserted.
The first port at which the Mis-
souri, will anchor will be at Dept
ford. Here she will discharge the
22O head of cattle. She will then
proceed to Libau, where her cargo
of $500 sacks of flour and meal
will be unloaded. The ship is ex-
pected to make the trip to Deptford
in about twenty days.
Specially prepared Coston night
signals have been furnished and
will be used on the voyage. They
will be displayed whenever the
Missouri meets a Westward bound
vessel. Thus the incoming ships
may bring news Of the Missouri's
progress.

- CELEBRATED CASE ENDED.
Nebrsskas Supr:me Court Dismissss the Gubsr.
historical Contest at Thoyer's Cost.

Omaha, Neb., March 16.-The
supreme court at Lincoln this
morning called up The case of the
state ex rel Thayer VS.. James e.
Boyd. and on motion of Governo r
Boyd's counsel confirmed. the iudg-
ment and dismissed the case at
Thayer's cost. This practically
ends the case. The court might
allow it to be reinstated, bat so
steps have been taken in the mat
ter of applying for such procedure
and none are likely to hc taken.
Thayer says his Texas interests
occupy all his time. In the event
tina the case was again taken MP
Governor Boyd would continue to
act and it would be impossible to
secure a decision before his term
expires. This removes the great
est inducement they could hav G
for continuing the fight The re-
publican politicians are averse to
keeping the fight up, and Thayer
can hardly go on without their aid
and sympathy. In political circles
the case is considered at an end.

CAUGHT AN ELK A.FOCT,

Rexburg Press.
A few days ago a young man
named Ed. Butler, of Lyman, had
a very exciting time for while.
He espied large two-year-old bull
elk grazing leisurely along in the
open plain among the sage brush.
Now Ed. had never seen live elk
before and at the time only guessed
what the animal really was. He
procured horse and went for his
elkship. AS he got within one
hundred feet of his horse stumbled
and fell, but Ed, sliding over the
horses head, kept right on, not
waiting for the horse. The snow
being about'a foot deep. and soft at
that, the elk Jagged, Ed. gained
and ere long had the elk by one
hind foot and yelling at the top of
his voice Tor help which soon came.
A rope was thrown over the ami
mails head and taken to the stable
where he now is, for sale. We have
heard of horses running elk down
to be captured, but we never heard
before OF a man capturing one on
foot. 1t is true the bull was
thin in flesh, but not a cripple
or wounded, and eats his rations
of hay out of the manger like n
good fellow. He can be bought by
addressing Ed. Butler, Indepen-
dence.

The Missouri Sets Sail Heavy Laden
With Corn and Flour.
GIVEN FOR HUMANITY'S SAKE
Plenty of People at the Pier Cheer the
Departing Vessel-Her Progress to
be Reported by Incoming Ships.


out from the pier at the foot of
Twenty sixth street and started on
her long journey of relief to the
starving Russian peasants. She
was laden down to the black o.
foot mark on her nose-post with
flour and corn meal all given with
a hearty goodwill from the free,
charitable hands Of the American
people. "Thus it u.s." said one of
the hat-waving crowd on the pier,
"that the American people contrib
ute indirectly to the support of the
vast Russian army. The Russian
peasants starve themselves to pay
taxes and support the army, and
the American citizens give with
free hand to support the peasants.
Great is the red, white and blue"
This movement of relief for Rus
sia was conceived by w. G. &dgar,
of the Northwestern Miller, and
almost every item of the vast cargo
was contributed by the people of
the northwest. Mr.. Edgar was
ably seconded by William James,
the foreign freight agent of the
New York Central railroad. The
entire cargo Of -four and meal is
insured for $4,000. If the ship is
lost this amount will be turned
over to Mr.. Edgar for the famine
fund.
The Missouri was loaned for the
trip by the Atlantic Transport line.
The officers of the company said
that they would again tender
the steampship if another cargo
should be contributed.
When the last big bundle Of
sacks was lowered between decks
the brawny, hard-muscled sea-men
began to scurry about over the
ship like rats. The gold caps of
the officers fitted hither and thither
among the ruck of laborers and
pretty soon long lines of gorgeous
bunting were slipping up the hal
yards from every mast There
were the flags of all nations and
half a hundred flags which repre-
sented no nation at all. They fut-
tered in gay necklaces of gold and
blue and amethyst from rope to
rope and from topmast to deck,
looking for all the world like a
great bevy of butterflies. At the
forepeak the red, white and blue of
the American flag stood out in the
wild west wind like a painted
PLAGUE, pointing directly towards
Russia. The American ensign
flew at the mainmast and the
blood-red English flag at the
stern.
There was a great crowd of Curl
GUS spectators nosing about the
decks, and they succeeded in get
ting in everybody's way to the
great disgust of the hustling sailors.
Mr.. Edgar was there to see that
everything went smoothly; so was
Mr.. James. Finally there came n
long, shrill whistle and cloud of
steam that drove everybody seam
ering towards the gangway.
There stood Capt. Finley with
his gold and blue cap in his hand
ready to tell his friends goodbye.
For five or ten minutes his arm
worked Xix pump-handle. When
the last of the spectators had crept
down to the pier the gangway was
hauled up. Then came series
of hoarse cries from the iron
Threats of officers and the two tugs
Pulver and Willard wheeled slowly
alongside. The Pulver pulled and
