A Dead, Bird Is a Carcass.

At Albany, Or, a hunter was
tried last Monday upon the in
dictment of having a Mongolian
(Chinese) pheasant in his possess
ion during the closed season. A
jury acquitted him on the in
struction OF the circuit judge that
dead bird is not a pheasant
within the meaning of the law,
but a carcass. Vio1ators of the
present game law in Oregon need
not fear punishment nnless they
are seen to kill such birds, and
such witnesses will have to testi-
ty in court.
This means more game law
Legislation at the next session Of
the Oregon legislature, it is to be

At the sixth meeting the mat

matter of discussion. The1e
were four new names added to
the company's roster. At the
eighth meeting we find CON-
mittee appointed to write new
constitution and bylaws. In the
book is a record of this new order
of things. There are sixteen
articles in the new constitution
adopted and twelve in the by
laws.
1t seems that the company was
doing things about that time, for
at the tenth meeting, held Oct
tober 19, 1872, there was dis
cussion of the fttest way of cele-
brating the completion of the
engine house. 'John Burnett
moved that Wednesday evening,
Nov. II, be fixed as the time for
a Fireman's Ball. Carried.'
Perhaps it will interest some to
know that the Office at present
used by the Corvallis Gazette was
the engine house referred to
above. Until about three years
ago the past summer quite a high
bell tower stood at the rear and
connected with this building. In
side, the tower was used for
hanging hose to dry. In refer
ence to the price of tickets to the
ball we find the following, indie
ative that times were good or else
people were more, willing then
than now to ''pay ithe fiddler" !"
"Mr. Neugass moved that the
price of tickets be fixed at IS.
Mr.. Burnett moved to amend by
striking out IS and inserting IS
Mr.. Wrenn moved to amend the
amendment by striking out So
and inserting 81. Lost. Mr..
Burnett's amendment prevailed
and the price of tickets was fxac

given that the engine would be

Abuse Of Public Trust.
The stealing of the public funds Is q
great crime. The betrayal of any public
trust is an offense against the statute
and also against the moral law. The
building up of a great and corrupt organ
ization by means Of largely increased
salaries of incompetent. dishonest and
unfaithful officers, and the making OF
numerous and unnecessary places for
party followers is great outrage upon
the people and the peoples rights; but
all these, though the public money thus
used may amount to millions, which the
people must pay by increased taxation,
are but little compared to the looseness
OF morals produced, as so well stated by
a great archbishop a few weeks ago. All
this is nothing compared to the lowering
Of the standard Of the body po-
litic, and the lowering of the ideals
of good citizenship. Of honesty and
uprightness of character. The ex-
istence of a corrupt court in any Of
the old nations of the world was never
brought about because the people were
corrupt and sunken in morals. and the
corruption in officials of our state and
rites is not of itself an indication that
the great masses of the people are cor
rupt.
1t is true, however. that the existence
Of corruption, grating and dishonesty in
public officials has and always will have
a most degrading effect on the character
of a community or commonwealth, and
unless stopped. the corruption will per-
meate every possible avenue Of society.
and avarics and personal aggrandize-
ment, personal gain OF supposed prefer
ment and honors. Will be used as so
many enticements to tempt the weak to
deliver up their consciences. their good
characters and their good names. This
loss of character in a community can not
be measured by gold: Its value Is above
money: 1t Is above all price.
