A SHARP TRIcK.-General Compson is
accredited with securing two appropria-
tions for the Oregon National Guard at
the hands Of this legislature. The Gul-
lixson bill giving them $4,000 has
passed both houses over the governors
veto. The Ford bill to give the National
Guard sc, 600 in lieu of the mill tax also
passed both houses. That gives the state
militia q cool hundred thousand to
operate with the coming two years. The
governor cannot well veto the Ford bill
without restoring the mill tax Of both
the militia and Skete University, and
adding considerably to what they will
now receive. When the matter came
before the House of passing the Gullix-
son bill over the veto Ford denounced it
ss being in bad faith and an outrage on
The tax payers OF this state.-Journal.
