GOVKHSJIEXT BED TAPE.
The Washington special published yes
terday morning in rogard to tho returns
from the electoral college of this stato
was slightly inaccurate and placed tho
responsibility for the mishap on tho
wrong persons. The facts are as follews:
Tho copy of tho returns to be sent by
mail was sealed and directed to "Tho
President of the United States senate,
Washington." A postoffico clerk in
glancing over the direction did not notice
the word '"senate," and put tho package
in tho mail of "Tho President of the
United States." It was opened by one of
his secretaries, who, seeing the mistako
he had made handed the package to
President Arthur, who at once sout it to
Vice-President Edmunds, with a note ex
plaining tho mistake. Now the law re
quires that tho envelope must be oponed
in presence of both honsc3 of congress.
Vice-President Edmunds consulted with
Senators Dolph and Slater in regard to
tho matter, and it was concluded that
thero was plenty of time to send the re
turns back here and have them properly
sealed and sent again to Washington.
The packet was mailed at once and Hon.
D. P. Thompson notified by telegraph of
the fact. Hun. Warren Truitt, who had
been chosen a special messenger to cirri'
onejeopy of the returns to Washington as
required by law, remained here two weeks
awaiting tho arrival of tho packet mailed,
but it was detained in the blockado on
tho Short Lino aud he was obliged to
leavo before its arrival in order to get to
Washington in time with his copy. The
package arrived hero and was re-sealed
and re-addressed and re-sent off again on
Wednesday, and will doubtless bo re
ceived and re-opened and re-ad at the
proper time and place. Oreyonian. 17.
Before Justice Goodcll yesterday was a
case where M. Sullivan sued" Captain
Sember of tho Perthshire. Sullivan had
hauled away some ballast from the ves
sel and a diputo arose as to the amount
of ballast. Tho jury found for the plain
tiff in the sum of 120.90.
Tho bill drafted by the chamber of
commerce amending the city charter goes
to Salem to-morrow. Tho chief provis
ions have already been published. The
principal change is in the clause requir
ing a property qualification for voters in
the city, tho division of tho city into
three wards, the shortening of the terms
of councilmen from three to two years,
the making all city officers elective ex
cept surveyor aud "attorney, and abolish
ing the offices of city assessor and police
judge.
Thero was no end of fun at the skaiing
rink last night, between 300 aud 400 peo
ple being present. Potatoes were scat
tered over tho floor and tho skaters who
entered for the contest had to pick them
up one by one and fling them into a keg
with a small hole in tho cover as they
skated past. Their efforts, successful
and otherwise, afforded unbounded mirth
to the spectators. Tho result was a tio
betweon Ross Clinton aud Henrv Sher
man, tho first named winning in the af tor
match m a score of 11 to 10.

SAL3I05 HATCIIKBY OX THE COLUMBIA.
Livingston Stone rambles through six
columns of fine type in the Oreyonian in
an account of his explorations on tho up
per Columbia in '83, looking for a suit
able place to establish a salmon hatchery.
Tho only placo ho found that was suitablo
was tho mouth "of theLittlo Spokane riv
er, which place appears to have every re
quisite but ono for tho establishment of
a hatchery. That ono element is the
salmon.
"I wish to add, however,' says Mr.
Stone, "that if Washington territory and
the state of Oregon, between which the
lower Columbia flows, could agree upon
a code of good protective laws for the
salmon, the Clackamas river would again
teem with salmon as before, and in that
event perhaps the best point for a breed
ing station would bo on that river where
tho station of the Oregon and Washing
ton Fish Propagating Company was built
in 1877. Before the times of canneries
and excessive netting of the salmon on
the lower Columbia, tho Clackamas in
Oregon was as good a salmon river as the
McCloud in California, and if the salmon
should CTer be allowed to reach it, it
might bo again. There is no ground for
the objection that the Clackamas salmon
are an inferior variety of fish, for it has
been proved repeatedly and indisputably
that the Clackamas salmon are the spring
or Chinook salmon (Oncorhynchus quin
nal ), and of precisely the same variety as
thoso which aro canned at the mouth of
tho Columbia, and which aro hold to
bo of tho highest value for canning. Nor
is tho difficulty of obtaining water for
the hatching house at this point a serious
objection, for if an abundance of breed
ers could bo obtained it would warrant
tho incurring of sufficient expenses to
overcome this difficulty. If, therefore,
tho laws should ever protect tho salmon
of the Columbia, so that they could reach
the mouth of tho Clackamas, it might bo
found the most feasible plan for obtain
ing salmon eggs on a large scalo to re
store tho old breeding establishment on
this river."

They wanted a railroad from Grub
town to Moneyville. That is, nobody had
an idea that such a railroad was wanted
until Colonel Do Hash of Grubtown sug
gested it. Ho was actuated solely by
patriotic motives, his motto being pro
bono publico. He not only felt that tho
railroad ought to bo built, but in his
patriotic zeal ho btarted a subscription.
More than that, he put himself down for
$5,000. Then, further, he called meet
ings, made speeches, helped to get a sur
vey and the right of way, and tho day
the train left Grubtown, Colonel Do Hash
was called tho father of his country. Six
months later there was an indignation
meeting, and tho chairman flourished his
long arms, and shook his clenched fists,
and cried eut:
"Some of us subscribed $100, and some
of ns twice and thrice and four times
that amount. Whar' aro we now? Who
cwns our railroad? Who has plastered
it with mortgages? Who has frozen us
out? Who has monkeyed with our sacred
rights?"
And echo answered: "Frozo out!"

There can be no argument as to the
qualities essential to a perfect remedy
for the ills arising from a disordered or

should be perfectly safe for old and

times: that it should be acceptable both
to the tasto and tho stomach; that it
should never fail to act promptly and

A SI50ULAK FACT.
One evening a short time ago, as a re
porter of the American found himself
with a party of friends, tho conversation
turned on the fact that this was leap year.
A middle-aged gentleman in tho party re
marked: "Thank goodness it is nearly over.'
"Why," inquired the man of the pen
cil. "Well, to rnnkfe a long story short, some
years ago, in a leap year, a beautiful,
well educated and altogether lovely young
lady, asked mo to marry her in a jest. I
said 'yes,' as I had long entertained a
secret affection for h6r. She meant every
word she said, and insisted that we should
bo married at Christmas. I consented
and wo were married. A better wife man
never had. But, alas for my future pros
pects, sho lived but ono short year, cud
now sleeps in Mount Olivet. Here is
where my aversion to leap year comes in
I am afraid that some designing woman
will proposo to me in some leap year, and
that I will be compelled to accept, and,
instead of getting a helpmate for life, I
will get a vixen who will make my life a
hell upon earth."
"Then," said tho scribe, "you have to
dread leap year for two reasons. The
first you havo stated. Tho second is on
accouut of the depression to business
caused by leap year always being a presi
dential year."
"Thero you are mistaken. Every presi
dential year is not a leap year. If 1 live
till tho year 1900. as I have good pros
pects of doing, I will seo n presidential
year which is not a leap year, and still a
year divisiblo by four."
Tins set the reporter to studying, lie
could not make out how it was. His in
formant left him in tho dark, and he
finally consulted the authorities, with tue
following result, taken from Smith's "Il
lustrated Astronomy:"
"It has been found by observation that
tho earth revolves on its axis 3G5i times
nearly while it is making ono complete
rovolution around tho sun, or while tho
sun moves from either equinox to tho
samo equinox again, consequently tho
solar year, upon which tho seasons de
pend, contains nearly 3C5K days. It will
oc seen irom tnis mat tua uiuorence oo
tweou a year of 3G5 days and the year as
measured by the sun amounts to ono day
in every four yenrs; so that in 120 years
of 3U5 days tho seasons would fall back
ono wholo month, and tho season for
May would bo in Juno, etc. In 720 years
tho longest day would nll back through
tho twelve months, nnd would again cor
respond to their present? arrangement,
In order to keep the seasons to tho same
months, and to make the solar and civil
year correspond, one day moro is in
cluded in l'cbruary every fourth year.
This would always keep tho solar and
civil year together if tho earth rovolved
upon its axis exactly 365X times while it
is revolving nround tho sun, or during
tho solar year; but the earth revolves
from equinox to tho same again in 365
days, 5 hours, 4S minutes and 49 seconds.
which is 11 minutes and 11 seconds less
than 3G5K days; consequently, allow
ing one day in every four years is allow
ing 44 minutes, 44 seconds too much, and
in 132 years it would amount to 21 hours,
3G minutes, 6 seconds. Tho niodo of reck
oning timo by making every fourth year
a loap vear was adopted bv tho council
of Nice in tho year of our Lord, 325,
when tho longest day in tho year hap
pened June 21st, and tho vernal equinox
March 21st. This modo of reckoning
was continued until 12, a period of
1,427 years, when it was found that the
longest day was on Juue 10th aud the
vernal equinox on March 10th, the vernal
equinox having fallen back eleven days
toward tho beginning of the year. To
restore the equinoxes to tho same das
of tho month in which they happened in
tne year SJj, eleven days were ordered by
tho British government and the United
States, then British colonies, to bo strick
en out of tho month of September, 1752,
by calling the 3rd the 14th, and it was
ordered that hereafter one leap year in
132 years, or three leap years in 400 years,
should be omitted; that is, that the years
1700, 1S00 and 1900, which, by the old style,
would havo been leap years, should bo
common years of 385 days. This meth
od gives 97 leap years in every 400 years.
Thus, 400 multiplied by 3G5, plus 97 days
divided by 400 years makes 305 days, 5
hours nnd 49 minutes, making a distance
from tho true solar year of only 23 seconds
a year, an error which amounts to only
ono day in 3,86G years. Tho oven centu
ries aro leap years only when cutting off
tue two ci pliers you can divido the other
two figures by four without a remainder.
Thus 1900is not divisiblo by four with
out a remainder, consequently it is not
a leap year." Nashville American.
