HARRISBURG.

Representative Myers bill to compel
the heads Of the several departments Of
the State Government to furnish item
lied reports Of receipts and expenditures
at the end Of each fiscal year met de-
feat at the hands Of the Stalwarts in the
Honse last Thursday evening The bill
was at the foot Of the calenllr. By the
time it was reached there was bare
quorum present. Mr.. Myers knew that
the bosses did not wish he bill passed,
bat thought it might be forced through
when a big attendance WAS at hand
So when the bill was reported he
moved to postpone for the present.
The Stalwarts fought this postpone
ment vigorously and defeated the mo
ton. The bill was then forced to final
passage and went down by vote of AZ
to 7G
Everybody in Harrisburg was talk
ing over the political situation yester-
day and wondering what it all meant.
Those who could throw light on the
subject remained silent, and their at
titude only increased the interest.
Ever since Saturday. when the Re
cordership was settled, those in the
dark nave been saying that the arrival
Of Senator Finn in Harrisburg would
settle the question as to his connection
with the appointment Of Major Brown.
Senator Finn arrived from Philadelphia
Tuesday evening, where he had tarried
since Sunday on private business.
Naturally, he was besieged on all
sides. Quayites jocularly patte1 him
on the back, said they were glad he had
experienced change Of heart and
hoped he would be good hereafter
The Insurgents approached him rather
carefully. They did not know IL he
was with them or against them, and
feared to hear the worst The Demo
Gratis came mp boldly and asked the
question outright.
With all he treated the matter as
joke; at least, that was the way he
acted. Perhaps he was confidential
to leading Insurgents such as Edwards
Ford Hosack, Weller. Stewart, Ricet
Coray and Fetterolf, but If he was they |
did not say 50 10 the newspaper reporter
afterward. They were just az eyasive |
on the subject as Finn.
THE Pittsburg Post Of last Sunday |
asserted that the "stone-Flinn Con
tract provides that all the Allegheny |
county delegates are to vote for Elkin
for Governor. next year; that their As
semblymen are 10 vote for Boise Pen
rose 10 succeed himself next year, and
for Gov. Stone to succeed Quay IN 1909
that the ballot-reform measure now
pending is to be dropped also the whis-
key y-ripper measure; and that Finn is
not to oppose the Fox bill for the com
pletion Of the Capitol; for all Of which
Finn is to remain the Boss Of Pittsburg
and his friends remain in office.

The Pendulum Swung.

Old residenters will remember
Nat Stewart, who was raised on
the old Stewart farm north Of
Corvallis a mile or two. In time
he drifted to Santa Barbara
county, California, and was
elected sheriff there. Last year
he paid his old home a visit. He
was the same 'hale fellow well
metz and was given a warm wei.
corne. Since his last election
his opponent contested the legal
.ity Of the ballet, although Nat
was given a majority Of las votes.
A recount was made and many
votes were cast aside and even
then Mr.. Stewart came off victor
and the eeurt declared him the
sheriff. In a receat letter to rela-
tives in this city Mr.. Stewart,
speaking Of the contest, says:
oThe last lew Gays nave dc.
.veloped gate a change In nay
business affairs, and the long le.
gal contest between myself and
Thos.s H. Hicks for the sheriff S
office in this county came to an
end on Tuesday of last week,
when the recount and the fnal
reiections of disputed ballots were
finished. This left me eight
votes ahead In the whole county.
The pendulum Of fortune kept
swinging back and forth between
the two contestants throughouI
the proceedings, first one being .
few votes ahead and then the

County Got Most of It.

A sale of all property bid in by
the county at delinquent tax sales,
to which the county has acquired
title, was held yesterday morning
from 10 to II o'clock. Few bidders
were on hand and the county was
obliged to bid in all but four or five
pieces. It is the policy Of the court
to hold the property for taxes
which have accrued during the
time that the county has had pos
session and not simply for the
taxes of the last year. Taxes are
due against some of this property
since 1888, while a portion of It has
only one years delinquency prior to
1898, the year for which ths sale
was made.
The county, like an individual,
must hold property bid in at tax
sale for two years before acquiring
title. Heretofore, tax sales have
been made in August, but under
the new law property bid in by the
eeunty at former sales must be sold
the first Monday after July 1st.
Therefore, property bid in in 1899
will not belong to the county until
next August.

Sunday Train a Success.

The first Sunday mail train
ever to arrive over the S. P. te
Corvallis made the round trir
from Portland to this city last
Sabbath. While the number ei
passengers to arrive here was
small the Oregonian states that
the traffic handled was fully up
to the weekday business.
This, considering the fact that
ne attempt had been made to
stimulate business for this train
and great many people were
not aware that 1t would run, is
regarded as an indication that
the Sunday service has come to
stay. If so many patronize the
train on its frst trip it is deemed
certain that more will travel on
it when it shall become known
as a permanent institution.
Leaving Portland at 7:3o Sun
day morning the two coaches
were pretty we'll filled. Most of
these passengers left the train at
nearby stations, but number
made the run through. At
nearly every station there was a
company of citizens, more or less
numerous, to welcome the new
train.
The bulk of the West Side
travel is north of McMinnyille.
Going into Portland the train
filled up between McMinnvi11e
and Hillsboro SO that every seat
in the train was fully occupied.
This seldom happens on week
days. The train crew which
started out in the morning with
the firmly fixed notion that the
new train weuld be a failure,
was obliged to abandon that no
tion before getting back and to
admit that the first day had been
surprisingly successful. The
new train brings additional work
for the trainmen, SO they were
NOT disposed to boom it unneces-
sarily. It is deemed certain that
this will prove the NEST popular
train on the road when it shall
become known along the line.
Sundays train was in charge Of
Conductor M. c. Webster and
Engineer Joseph Kehoe. The
service was excellent in every
particular.
