About Going Back.

Some new spirit has come over
the dreams of the Corvallis Times
of late. Its issue of January 25th,
it contained a long write-up of
Lincoln's financial standing i'll con-
nection with the move on the part
of some of our citizens to be thrown
again into Benton county. The
air of the entire article was against
such a move. 1t virtually said
Benton did not want Lincoln county
or any part Of it. But Saturday
there appeared change; the
EDITORS mind has returned to the
idea of expansion, of fostering the
discomfort of a portion of our
citizens, probably with the idea
that in the future VIXEN the debt
of the county has been reduced to
but small sum, it can come out
with a hurrah and influence large
majority of the inhabitants of Lin
coin county to join the discontents
and soar into Benton with a neat
tax roll and small debt and make
Benton a banner county. Last
week it says, "The result (of Great
ing Lincoln county, has been for
the residents of the new county
high taxes, a mountain of debt and
dissatisfied and disappointed
population" Benton used TO make
her boasts thar she would never
allow the people west of Philomath
even county commissioner, and
this sort of talk now sounds like
mere selfish avarice. The LEADER
has heard the opinion of many of
Lincoln's population concerning
going back in to Benton, and there
are amply enough who are opposed
TO the move in every respect to
forever stop any such move, unless
accomplished without a majority.
AS to high rate of taxation, Benton 5
rate is 13 mills, ours 16-three
mills ought not to frighten any one
very seriously and to most of our
people it would not make so cents
difference in The amount of their
taxes. The whole matter is great
cry and little wool

That her loss with bitter tears will never
blind me.

her!
And although she is the color of a fried New
England cruller,
1t will never drain my pocketbook to dress
her.
Hers a figure like Juno, doesn't try to hide it,
you know,
With the tinery our Yankee girls so covet
And her mouth is a creation built for blissful
osculation,
With the very cutest nose on earth above it.
And her smile! oh holy Moses! What a
vision it discloses
OF rosy portal gemmed with grinders
pearly;
OH there are no flies upon her, and fear 1

To the wiles of this sweet Filipino grille.
So the girl left behind me isn't very apt to
find me

lose her,

belle I've captured,
And she's gone upon her Colorado snoozer.
So exultantly l tell her, that her once best
steady feller,
Whom she thinks she's drowned forever in
the soup,
Has been happily re-lovered, has quite easily
discovered
That she's not the only chicken in the coop

Editor LEADER
Your Chitwood cor1espon-
dent failed to give a complete ac-
count Of the deer killing and dog
shooting affair that took place at
the water tank near Chitwood
recently.
AS the owners of the butchered
dogs came upon the ridge above
the water tank IN order to blow the
horn for the purpose of calling their
dogs off, certain parties that are
now making IA great pretense at
plying the unfortunate deer that
"b.eated so pitifully," were seen
skinning the deer (Which they had
shoD with the intention, apparent
ly, of appropriating the venison to
their own use, but upon hearing
the hunters horn they suddenly
took alarm and sneaked away like
sheep killing dogs, leaving the deer
behind but partly skinned and its
entrails out. Query: Was it
through sympathy that these pre-
tended humane persons shot and
crippled those dogs or was it all a
mere excuse to get away with the
venison?
Yours respectfully

The Arkansas Democrat of Wedn- esday in discussing "O1icial Sala- ries, says:
 A great objection to the change is the fact that in most of the bills placing county officers on salaries there is q violation of an implied contract, and consequently an act of injustice. When 6 sheriff or county clerk is elected there is an understanding that the eompensa- tion is to be the existing rate. When the legislature steps In and reduces this rate it is an injustice and virtual violation of contract. No special acts should affect the sal aries of present incumbents.
 In the above the editor of the Democrat betrays Q woeful lack of ignorance of our State laws Does not the editor of the Democrat know that the salary of no officer, State, County or Municipal, can be reduced for the term for which he was elected? This would be what is known as an er post fo3o law and would be in violation ot the consti tuition of the United States and the State of Arkansas An act reduc ing the salary of any officer can only take effect after the t rm for which he was elected has expired. In this instance there can be no violation Of contract, expressed or implied. This the writer of the above paragraph in the Democrat should have known, for he is somewhat of lawyer and has been a member of the State Legislature If the writer of the aforesaid paragraph seeks to be a l "moulder Of public opinion, he should at least know some Of the fundamental laws Of our government His objections to"OmciaI Salaries as set forth above, are overcome byI the laws Of our State and Nation, and as the movement to abolish the lee system is "good thing" we hope 10 see our neighbor Of the Democrat advocate it.
