LONDON, March 29-Sir Charles Tup-
per, Canadian commissioner to London,
who WAS Que of the British agents at the
Behring see tribunal of arbitration ia
Paris, had a long interview yesterday
with Sir Robert Meade at the foreign
Office. Sir Charles expressed the epiu-
lob that although it would have been
preferable TO have had no delay IN legal
izing the award of the tribunal of arbi-
tration, there was every reason to believe
all the countries concerned in the seal
fisheries would peacefully conform to he
award directly on legaiizlbg.

flow of blood to become so rapid as t,

such appeared TO be the case this after
neon. The quiet scene of barber shop

were struck right and left. One who was
In the chair waiting to be shaved des-
cribes the event very graphically. He
first saw a man rush in, call another one

then began TO strike him. Before he
could fully realize what had happened
he said it seemed as though there were
fifteen or twenty fighting at the same

was full of excited people As soon as
possible the combatants were parted. and

The Primary Election.

Considering the efforts made by the fac
tional "ring" to control the primaries yes
terday the result is very encouraging tt
those Republicans who were determined tc
free Themselves from its diotation. Fol
weeks ''slate making" had been in operation
by faction of political bosses ln this city
who had no other object in view than the
capture of the coming county convention,
that they might dictate the nominees on the
county ticket and the delegates to the state
convention The plans were laid in secret,
and several ''star chamber" mesfipgs were
held at which none but those who would
vote as desired were admitted. After this
became known an opposition to such auto
cratIcal methods was aroused, and at IL
O'Clock yesterday ticket was put in the
field which carried off more than It's share
of honors. If the Republicans had organ
lied sooner the faction would have been de-
feated "horse. foot and dragoons. but as it
IS there is no mistaking the verdict OF the
people against '.slates" and ''rng control"
at primaries.

Salem Statesman: The state treasurer ha'

Concerning County omcers.

|
DUFUR, Oregon, March 27, 1894.
| Editor MEs-MoUNTAINEER-
In the editorial column of The Dalles
Chronicle of March oath, l observed an
article favoring the changing of the time
| that taxes should become delinquent from
| April to December l. think the change
would be very acceptable to the taxpayers.
| The article says the next session OF the leg
| lslature should amend this law, and III this
| connection they shoult at the same time
provide that assessors be appointed by the
county court. This is too important an Of
flee to be left to chance. Too important
to be left to chance. According to that the
dear people are not qualified to elect their
county officers. I consider the county
board the most important officers IN the
county, at least to the taxpayers. They, the
county board, are the financial business
managers for the county. They should be
men who have managed their own affairs IN
GOOD shape and made a success of their
business, whatever that business may be;
but, who should appoint the county board!
They are certainly too important to be lett
to chance. 1 think the worst chance would
be in leaving such appointments to the
county board, under the present party fav
oratism, the county board would be Just as
likely to make mistakes in appointing an
assessor as they haye heretofore in another
appointment that could be mentioned
But suppose the laws in relation to assess-
ing property be amended so as to make the
voting precincts and the road district the
same territory-les the voters of the pre-
cinct elect their road supervisor at the
same time and IN the same manner as they
10 other precinct officers, the road super
visor being the assessor for the preciuct.
Under this system the assessor would be-
,ome acquainted with every property holder
avery dollar of assessable property in the
precinct. IF he did not see every man on
he first round he could go to the missing
mes second or even a third time, and not
ave to travel many miles to do so; but the :
county assessor makes one grand round OF ,
he county and winds up at the county seat. i,
The immense territory that he has to travel
ver, together with the scattered populaa
ion, precludes the possibility of his getting :,
o see every citizen, or procuring correct
st of taxable property. Combine the two
fices, the road supervisor and assessor, and
here would be no trouble about getting a
ood qualified man for the position, aud the :,
usIness would be done IN much shorter
me and with less expense. QUIET
