The salaries paid county officials

The salaries paid county officials
in the state Of Washington seem
more in keeping with hard times
and the salaries paid other employ
es than do those in Oregon. There
is almost unanimous demand from
all the counties for reductions by
the legislature of the salaries of the
various county officers of Oregon
also. Here is an example: There
are seventeen counties in Washing
ton, the largest salaries paid in
any of which are as follows: Sher-
if, $1050; clerk, 5000; district
attorney, $500; Supt. of schools,
$500; assessor, $1050. These sal
aries are under the new schedule
which was passed by the last legis-
lature, and in some of the more
thickly populated counties as Spo-
kane and Walla Walla the highest
salaries paid are but $500 and
$1400 respectively for clerk and
1890 and $500 respectively for
sheriff. -Oregonian.

The Coyote Bounty.

The county court at its Jan. 1897 term
made the following entry upon its docket
in the matter OF coyote bounty:
The Sheepmen's Protective Union Of
Gillian county is hereby notified that
the offer of the county court to pay 81 90
bounty on coyote scalps still holds good I;
that said payment will be made in the
future as in the past on certificates Of the
Union showing that . like amount has
been paid by them.
In view Of the fact that the county
court cannot lawfully offer less than 81
per scalp bounty, it ia suggested that the
Union reconsider their action taken
Dec. 10, 1896, reducing the bounty to
soc, and either authorize the continu-
ance Of the bounty of sl.00, or fix some
date after which no bounty will be
given.

The Diphtherla Scare at Lone
Rock.

CoNDoN, Jan. 18th.
If people who are so unfortunate as to
be visited by contagious diseases were
to observe the precautions taken there
during and after the visit Of that dread
disease there would be less epidemics.
During the sickness only such persons
as were needed were allowed near the
little patient; the house kept aired and
disinfected; the throats Of those expos
ed we're cared for by gargling, ETC., sew.
erai times day; destroying or fumigat-
ing all clothes, bedding and fnrniture;
floors scrubbed and gone over with a
microbe destroyer; paper and lining on
walls destroyed; disiniecting solution
applied before refining, and to wind up,
every room in the house exposed to the
fumes of burning sulphur for at least
twelve hours. All this properly done
by interested persons under directions
of an experienced physician makes any
house safe.
In addition to the above, every letter
that was sent away was disinfected be-
fore mailing. The undersigned disin-
fected himself before leaving Lone Rock
and again on his arrival at Condor, be-
fore he would see any one.
Detail lie gone into in this matter so
that the public will know what their
duty to their neighbor is when they
have diphtheria, scarlet fever or case
Of consumption in their family.

correspondent Of the New York World:
Scovel arrived on Friday at the Zaza
station of the railroad from Tunas to
that city. He landed at the port Of
Casilda and went from there to Trinidad
and thence to Managua for the purpose
Of gathering news. When he reached
Zaza he intended to take a train for
Tunas and board some vessel bound for
New York. But as an order had been
issued to detain all foreigners the chief
Of the escort of the train, a lieutenant
Of the civil guards named Senior Carlo,
at once arrested him and Francisco
Tome, Who had come from Pagabo,
where he had been to oversee an estate
partly owned by him. Senior Carlo
questioned Scovel concerning the Sec
tion Of the country which he came from.
Scovel replied that he came from Gen.
trail Trinidad, where he had gone to buy
old copper. Said Lieutenant Carlo in
reply:
Knew Him by His Clean Shirt.
Seems to me that your face is not
that Of buyer of old copper"
IWhy?" inquired Scovel.
Because" replied Carbo, Americans
that travel like you with q clean shirt
and an old straw hat and without a
valise come from the insurgent camp"
Both men were then placed in the
Jail, where Scovel still remains. Tome
was released, since nothing was found
against him. Scovel was confined alone
In his cell, and was not allowed to COM
municate with any person during the
entire day. On the night of the seventh
his testimony was taken. He was then
allowed the privilege of communicating
with Consular Agent Senor Rafael Mad
rigal de la Cruz.
ScOvel Admires the Spanish.
Says the correspondent of La Lucha:
wishing to know personally The World
correspondent 1 went early in the morn
ing to the Jail. Mr.. Scovel is a young
man, well educated and very attractive.
He praised the treatment he had re-
ceived in JAIL OF the keeper of the fail,
Senior SerranO. he says that it would
be hard to find his equal; that he is a
perfect gentleman in all things. He re-
quested me to make public the many
attentions he had received from the
military commander Of Tunas. Captain
Fernando Rueda. He says that Cap
tain Rueda is a very polite and courte-
Gus person. He wished me to make the
same remark of General Luque, whom
he also praises very much.
Spanish Soldiers Are Heroes.
Regarding the Spanish soldiers he
says that he can only eulogize them,
and that they deserve all the good
things said of them because Of their
bravery and discipline These charac-
teristics charm him, and he considers
them heroes. After an hours conversa-
tion Senior Madrigal retired with me,

soon as possible"
