To Til st Kprrok:-Having noticed In Inst week's KNTSxrHisa the sheriff's reply to Mr. Cross, would kindly ask a little space to correct a slight mistake which eiicrosches a little on myself. At the same time will say I am not In pursuit of a newpecr contro versy, but there is one paragraph In the sherill"! reply that rends as follows: "Mr. Maddock's tax was small and he would not have been moletled if he had not sent in a bantering mestsgs asking why I did not levy on his properly." Now I want lo say once lor all that 1 never sent in that sort or any other sort of a message to the sheritr or anyone else. 1 never said to any man living you tell the sherilT anything for me, and 1 defy any man lo make an atlldavit that I did. Now cer tainly if I sent that word I must have told some one logo and tell the sheriff, and that some on should be in existence vet, and I demand his atlldavit Now, mind that 1 want It clearly stated in the affidavit that I told him logo and tell the sheritr to come and levy on my prorty. This whole business reminds me ol a little story of a New York Irish policeman who was beating one of his countrymen with his club. He said: "Jamy, I don't bate ye because 1 hale ye; but I bate ye to show ye my authority." No, my "lax was small," only $78.40; that was what the sheriff wanted me to pay when became out and attached my learn and ar rested Mr. Griesshaher, a faithful man who was in the field working the team at the time; and because Griesshaher wanted to take the team and plow to the barn and ask me about the matter the sheriff" got wrathy and attached team, Griesshatier and all, but did not take the cultivator. Of course this caused me to lake a trip to Oregon City, and the first thing I saw after I entered Nohlett's livery stable was my team in jail, and ot course I felt sorry, as that was the only team I ever had in my life, andnow to see them in jail. I went to Mr. Cross about how lo get them out and told him the circumstan ces and he advised me lo go and pay my taxes, but I told him I didn't think I owed anything and the reason why. "Then," said Cross, "we will go lo the sheriff's office ami see." So when we looked the matter over we found I had over paid $17.72 on my proerty tax. So the sheriff had bad that much of my money for a couple of months, and yet he put my team in jail. Then I paid him $H.(iH men, ami that was every cent he got out of me. He only fell short about $70 so far as I was concerned. But he cinched one of my neighbors who I had accommodated, and one ol the poorest men in the county, by reason of this attachment out of some Us. In conclusion, permit me to say there is not one man in this county who ever heard me say one word of disrespect of our sheriff, or ever mistreated bim in any way, and bad he just left my name eut of his reply this article never would have a peered. This is my lint and last K. C. Mamkk'K. New Esa, September 25, 1KB. the NEW CASH STORE at Can IS STILL- IN TH6 LEAD. 9 They are soiling more and bottor goods for tho money than any other house in tho county.
