A CRITICAL TIME
During the Battle
of Santiago.
SICK OR WELL, A RUSH
NIGHT AND DAY.

The Packers al the Battle of Santiago
de Cuba We're all HerOeS-Their He
roic Efforts in Getting Ammunition
and RatiOns to the Front Saved the
Day.
p. E. Butler, of pack-train No. 3,
writing from Santiago de Cuba, on
July 23d, says: eve all had diarrhoea
in more or less violent form, and when
we landed we had no time to see doc
tor, for it was a case of rush aud rush
night and day to keep the troops
supplied with ammunition and ratiOns,
but thanks to Camberlain's Collie, Chol-
era and Diarrhoea Remedy, we were
able to keep at work and keep our
health; in fact, sincerely believe at
one critical time this medicine was the
indirect savior of our army, for if the
packers had been unable to work there
would have been no way of getting sup
plies to the front. There were no roads
that wagon train could use. My
comLade and myself had the good for
tune to lay in a supply of this medicine
for our pack train before we left Tam
pa, and l know in four cases it abso-
lutely saved life.''
The above letter was written to the
manufacturers of this medicine, the
Chamberlain medicine Co, Des Moines,

BONDS OF COUNTY OFFICIALS

The action Of the board Of county COM
missioners in reducing the amount OF
the bond OF the county treasurer from
$3.50, 900 to s2oo. 600 is proper. That officer
has been required to give altogether dis
proportionate security. Aside from the
bond given the county. he must give an
other to the city, which has heretofore
been fixed at $4,000. AS the treasurer
the city weekly. this bond may we'll be
reduced TO SOS, 600 or $50. 600 with perfect
safety to the city. The Post-Intelli-
gencer agrees with the CoIfax Com
moner that the county should require its
officials to file bonds furnished by relia-
bic guarantee companies. and should
pay the premiums required to secure
such bonds A bond Is required for the
purpose of securing the county against
loss through the dishonesty, careless
ness or insfficiency of the officer OF his
employees. Bonds furnished by a mans
political and personal friends have not
always proved the best Of security. The
experience of King county and the city
Of Seattle has demonstrated this fact
Again. it is a serious matter for an off,
cial to raise such a bond as is required
TO be given by the county treasurer. 1t
is a disagreeabie task to go around ask
ing ones friends to assume liability on
his account that he has no right to ask
or expect. The result is to place the Of
fcer giving the bond under obligations
that are embarrassing to him and detri-
mental to the public good. Deputyships
or clerkships are demanded in exchange
for the accommodation and. as is well
known. are frequently given because the
officer is compelled to give them in order
to make up his bond. This is all wrong
No officer should be required to put him.
self In such position.
1t will be far better to require a bond
from a responsible guarantee company,
for which the county pays the premium.
Such bond would furnish absolute secur-
ity to tho county and there would be no
trouble in collecting it. Under these
conditions smaller bonds would give am
pie protection. Surety companies do not
deal in sentiment, and the dishonest Of
ficer would soon be on the road to the
penitentiary. IL he once caused the COM
pany to make good his bond The legis-
lature should give this matter careful
atten ION at the coming session.

NO WONDER MURPHY DID 1T.
He Was Innocent, Was PardOned
and He Got Drunk.

Olympia. Dec. 2. 1895
To the Editor: In the Post-Inteliigencer
OF December l you publish short extract
from the Walla Walla Union, headed
What Murphy Did, The extract is a
short account of the manner in which John
Murphy. late convict in the pententiary,
celebrated his release from that institution.
1t seems that he got drunk and tore the
officers coat who arrested him. The in
ference is that Gov. Rogers did wrong in
pardoning him.
Usually pay little attention to criticisms
upon my official conduct. II l did. little
time would be left to me for anything else
However, in this instance the mendac!ty
OF the Walla Walla Union is so conspicu-
Gus that cannot refrain from a brief pres
entat!on OF the facts 1t is true that
John Murphy was sentenced for ten years
for robbery II is also true that he did serve
some four years and eight months In the
pen!tentiary. Some time after his convic-
ton, however, two convicts made affidavit
that Murphy was entirely gu!lt.ess. and
that they themselves had committed the
robbery OF which Murphy stood convicted.
The Judge who sentenced Murphy certiaes
that he now believes him 10 be innocent.
The warden of the penitentiary also tells
me that from various circumstances con-
nected with Murphy's conduct he also thinks
him an innocent man; ana yet he had
demned criminal. That he should ''cele-
brate" on his release IL perhaps not 10 be
wondered at However, I respectfully de-
cline to be held responsible for this
Political mendaci.y is thu unfailing foun-
tain from which many editors IN this state
draw their inspiration.
