he uses going to and from Salem while
he draws mileage from the state. The
railroads give him free transportation

law to coYer what he is supposed to
pay for transportation. No public
officer drawing mileage from county or

roads in the name OF the state. while

PRoFLIearE LEGISLATION.
The States Money Flows Like Water at
the Hands OF the House.

The States Money Flows Like Water at
the Hands OF the House.
SALEM, Feb. 7.-Although nearly
two weeks yet remain in which to do
mischief the lower house has already
made most unenviable record by the
passage of appropriation bills that can.
not be viewed with pride by the mem
bers themselves or with satisfaction
by their constituents. The house has
been generous with the states money
almost criminally so-and there will
probably be much rejoicing on the
part of the public when the session
comes to an end.
The house has to date made tha fol.
lowing donations" which only the
vigilance of the senate and the good
judgement of tne governor can defeat:
Beet sugar bounty. 5000. 900
Artesian we'll experiment. 80. 42,000
Ashland normal school. ... 1900
Bridging south fork of Nehalem
river. ................... 15,OOO
Here is a total of $272.O00, or in
round numbers, nearly $4,000 of the
peoples money already voted away by
the generous lower branch Of the
legislature.
There are yet, however. many more
donation" measures pending, and if
the house can be relied upon for a
record of consistency all stand fairly
good chance of passing, providing they
can be reached before the end of the
session.
The Flax Fiber Association people
are before the legislature with a pro.
position to sell their plant for S35. 900.
The state fair wants $4,000 for the
next two years Notwithstanding the
fact that It's premium list was paid by
the state, leaving only the current ex-
penses to be paid for with the money
collected from gate receipts, these re-
ceipts were so small that it finds it has
a deficit of $1,000, which it has the
effrontery to ask the people of the
state to pay.
This isn't all. The state board of
agriculture which manages the So
cilled sLate fair, absolutely without
any authority, incurred printing bill
of $1,000 for publishing worthless
pamphlet known as "The Resources of
Oregon"
The general appropriation bill in.
troduced yesterday provides for total
of nearly 100000. This makes pro.
visions for all salaries of>s:ate officers
and other liabilities fixed by law. The
special appropriation bill is yet to
come and there is no telling what this
will contain.

A Pen Picture of: s1atafa.

We found Mataafa sitting on a mat
in the Kings house. On a wall,
where small portion of the side of
of the house was boarded in hung q
photograph of group of German
naval officers, and above it a gaudily
ornamented picture of the Virgin on
a background of blue peppered with
gold stars-for Mataafa is strict
Roman catholic. From one of the
central pillars Of the house hung a
a modern rife. On the floor beside
the chief was q cheap mahogany
framed mirror, lamp without q
chimney, and tinenambled mug and
water carsfe. The surroundings
could be taken in at glance; but the
man himself arrested the attention.
There was q calm dignity OF manner
about him a. he sat there cross-legged
on his mat, q large lavalava or tappa
covering his spacious loins and waist.
His short-cropped gray hair and
muatache showed signs of advanced
age, and perchance of his five years
Punishment in the island OF Jaluit.
He seemed a man Of strong person
atty as he sat there, with inscruitable
face, and fine head poised above q
brave chest and big breasts every
now and then swishing the flies away
with his ebon-handled fue OF horse
tail; but all the time there was that
shifty look of the eye. and we know
now that, for all his grand air, he is
very babe in politics, and too apt to
be made the puppet OF priests and
prime ministers in this puppet princi-
patty. Malcolm Ross, in Harper's

On Friday evening last very
pleasant entertainment was given UNI
der the auspices of the ladies OF the
Episcopal church at the Grand opera
house. The Bellies of Blackville was
an amateur comedy in deep color. A
score Of the young ladies of the city,
with the assistance of two or three
young gentlemen, gave a regulation
minstrel performance-end men, no,
end ladies and all. There were sew
eral bright jokes, some excellent
chorus work, several solos, and a
spicy variety of light comedy, fancy
drills, etc., the whole concluding with
an excellent cake walk. 1t was a first
rate entertainment, and worthy of a
better house.

The Fourth.

In the city of Sank Centre the
Fourth of July was the dullest day
ever. Had it not been for work on
the sewers, which was pushed with
vigor, our streets would have pre-
sented very dull Sunday appearance.
In fact nearly everybody who was in
spired with desire for ELUSIVE dem
onstration of patriotism, took occa-
sion to 60 to some place where it was
on tap. About 200 took the excursion
train for Glenwood and Starbuck, di-
viding themselves between the two
places without favor or prejudice.
The brass band went to Starbuck. A
number wentto Melrose. Among them
DR.. Dubois, who delivered the ad-
dress at that place, ard did it we'll.
There was large delegation of our
people at the Mahanna place in Ash
ley, where the celebration was under
the auspices of the English speaking
Catholic church OF this city. There
were about 500 persons there, and in
every particular the celebration was a
complete success, There were games
of various sorts, races and q ball
game. w. D. Townsend of this city
made An address which was received
with marked approval, ane was full OF
patriotic sentiment. After dinner, and
a most bountiful dinner was served,
Chas. F. Hendryx spoke briefly, and
the afternoon and evening was given
up to dancing, sports OF various kinds,
and to that sociability which strength
ems the bonds OF fellowship between
neighbours and acquaintance.
1t was a delightful day, the temper
allure being just right for comfort,
and the spacious grove furnished
abundant shade. The dancing was
continned- far into tina niGht ,+se
There were numbersof family pic
mic parties at the several lakes in the
vicinity, and lawns were used for so

families gathered on the lawn of Char

All in all Sank Centre celebrated
the Fourth of July sensibly, restfully
and periodically. During the even
ing there were some fine pyrotechnic

The Historical Ha nd Press.

The following from the Osakis Re-
view will be read with interest by the
older inhabitants of Sank Centre, as
it connects this city with the old est
piece of printing machinery in the
state: s>''.
The first hand printing press ever
used in Minnesota was brought up the
Mississippi river to st. Paul in 1S49
and was used in printing the old Min
nesota Pioneer, nowthe Pioneer Press.
when that. paper was started by the
much lamented James M. G0odhne.
The press was at that time historical,
and was celebrated as that which had
first been in use both in the states of
Iowa and Wisconsin. When super
seeded by a larger handpress in the
city it laid idle for some months, but
was purchased, with any amount of
old material for the sum of $500 by
jeremiah Russell of Sank Rapids who
in 1856 established the Sank Rapids
Frontiersman, the first newspaper
above St. Anthony Falls. About q
year later the old press and outfit fell
into the hands of w. II. Wood who in
January, 1860, established the New
Era, which, after a couple of years,
was merged into the St. Cloud Union.
Soon St. Cloud got too big for the
historical old press and Mr.. Wood
sold it to the Simonton Bros. They
transferred it to Sank Centre, then q
growing village, and established the
Sank Centre Herald in 1867. The old
patriarch next turned up in Mesker
county, being brought to Forest City
from Glencoe in 1858 by F. Belfoy and
used by. him in printing the Meeker
County News. From Forest City it
was moved to Litchfeld and later to
Hutchinson. For several years the
old monarch did valiant duty in var
ious Minnesota towns and finally
showed up at Portland. N. D., where
it was purchased by A. L. Heikes and
used in printing the Portland Repub-
lican. In May, 1890, the old press
with other material was brought to
Osakis and Mr.. Heikes established the
Osakis Lake Review. Not being able
to trace out the entire history of the
old press from its advent at st. Paul
to the time that,it fell into his hands
at Portland, Mr.. Heikes in 1891 sent
to st. Paul and induced J. G. Terry,
an old time and highly respected resi-
dent of that city who was in the en-
ploy OF the Minnesota Pioneer when
that paper was edited by Mr.. Goodhue,
and is doubtless the only man now
living who could identify the press, to
come to Osakis and examine the old
relic. After careful examination OF
the press and by q small star-shaped
indenture on the top ofthe press weight,
Mr.. Terry at one identified the press
and stated in an affidavit that he was
satisfied beyond doubt that the old
press then being used by the Osakis
Review was the veritable Goodhue
Epress. i.

city Mr.. Heikes decided to part with
it. and we bought the old machine.
The old press was different in appear
ance from any hand press we have
ever seen, and though the upright
part was in places badly rust-eaten,
the press did as good work as ever,
and the only repair work we ever
placed upon it was new set of straps
for pulleys. In 1897 we sold the press
to the Minnesota Type Foundry Co.
