Senator Biiyeu, of Linn, lias secure J
the passage through tLe Senate of las
lill to salary the ofiices of Clerks ami
Sheriffs. By Lis able advocacy ami
persoual superintendence of this bill be
secured iis almost unanimous support
ia the Senate, only four votes lieing
vast against it, ami those four In-ing all
Republicans. The bill stands s lair
chance of passing the House also, and
in case it should lecorae :i law will nia
terialiy reduce tlie emoluments of these
offices. The law is so frame! as to take
effect the first of July, 1861, and pro
vides for a salary of .91,500 a year for
Clerks and Sberitli. All the fees are
also substantially reduced, and must be
paid into the county treasury. Depu
ties are to be provided from time to
time by the Count v Court, which will
also fix their pay. We will publish the
Full text of the bill after its enactment,
and we compliment Senator Bilyeu on
his effective work thus far accom
plished, trusting that the meiuW-rs of
the Hoube from Linn will push Lis bill
to an early consummation.
Latee. This bill passed the House
on Wednesday evening, ami will no
doubt become a law. Instead of the
s-dary of Clerks and Sherifl beius
fixed at $1,500, as -.slated in our forego
ing article, the salary of Clerk in Linn
is to be ? 1,800 per annum, and that of
the Sheriff $2,000 j-er annum.
This Is really the only measure of
merit that Las passed the legislature
so far, and we again compliment Sena
tor Bilyeu upon Lis success.
Thus to a Democratic minority are
the people of the State indebted for an
enactment that will save the tax-payers
an immense sum of monev and relieve
lilic3 of the incubus cf these sot-ailed
"paying offices."
We understand that the incumbent
l.'lerks and Sheriffs h:tve made, v.n a
-.iua already to contest the constttn
)nality cf this enactment, and will
iisfc. every effort- possible to render it
null void.

Their iniquitous, infamous acts Lave
U-en so thoroughly rxiosed that tliey
have become hardened, ami puisne their
mast treasonable schemes against the
people with an entire disregard of pub
lic opinion. The other day they tele
graphed over tho wires whirh that par

had been brought to Indiana to vote
tLe Democratic ticket, when the fact
was that these imports weie Republi

publican juirty may Lave secured in In
diana mav bo attributed to tLe unlim
ited amount of money sjwnt to secure
the presence of these imKH-d roughs
and ne-ro "exoausters."
In tliis connection the (mri-f Jir-
mil of the 1th inst. has the matter
boilcl down as follows: 'The Indian-
aiolLs Jinminf haR attempted to stir up
the spirit of the mob in Indianajolis,
and it Las ointetl to lav. Hendricks
as a shining mark. Daveisj:rt's imi
tator, Dudley, who, as United States'
Marshal, brings the nation it to dis-j

scheming and plotting to gag the I )eio
ocracy, and to carry the election by
voting Kentncky negroes. He has is
sued circulars to Lis deputies to Kjot all
"Democratic" voters, at the same time
lending himself to scLemrs and plans
to safely vote negroes from .Kentucky
''Send tLose negroes to Evansville," Le
writes, '"Laving tirst correspoinled with
H. S. Bennett, Chairman of the Re
publican Central Committee."
Dudley's infamous conduct is onlv
equaled by his ofliciousness ; lie decides
all questions of law as though he were
a Judge, and disregards all whi. h in
any manner hamper Lim He is deter
mined a fair ballot sball not le cast in
Indiana, if it takes the whole fl.rce of
tlie United States to prevent if."

The Iegislatiue Las been in trouble
over the assessment laws, and List Tues

joint resolution :
S. J. R. Resolved by' the Senate,
the House concurring, Thai Lis excel

authorized to upoint a commission to
consist of five pto taken from dif
ferent vocations in life, whose duty i
shall be to revise tLe assessment laws
of tLis State, and to submit to tlie next
legislative Assembly tlie result of tLeir
labors. Such commission shall prepare
a bill which shall lie a substitute for
the existing revenue laws of the State,
if approved and )assed by fiaid Legisla

No member of such commission shall

actual traveling expenses incurred in
going to and from the capital while en
gagecl upon sucli commission.
The Secretary of State filial! provide
a place for tLe meeting of said commis
sion, and furnish thorn with light, fuel
and stationer'.
Cor. Ci'BRf'V, in LI' speech at Ba
ker City last week, says the Inland
Km pi-re, charged the Democracy with
the horrors of Indian warfare in
(J rant county because , they reduced
the army, flo , made no allusion to
the soldiers kept in the Southern
States to overawe voters In a peacea
ble county, thereby leaving an ex
posed frontier State wholly defense
less. . lie was equally careful to omit
any reference to Garfield's record on
the Modoc war claims, when the peo
ple of another Eastern country were
threatened with extermination by a
lot of brutal savages.'
Gov. Giuiis was advertised to
wave the bloody shirt before the Al
bany "faithful" last night, but as we
were compelled to go to press prior
to the waving wo are compelled to
waive a notice of his meeting'.

the Carfield party has carried Oartiehl's

up to this morning are not such as to
give n detailed result of tho election in
that State, but the lirst of the returns
to reach us from that State are from
the larger Republican cities, while the

The Oregon Legislatfire only Las

That paper thinks the Legislature is
doing nothing for tho country or for

Silt : Vour questions are entitled to
a candid answer. I will net down their
substance and give my reply to each
one in the order yott put thtin :
I. Did I mean in my letter to Mr.
niaiuo that (Uncial Carfield acknowl
edged the icceiptof Blocks and divi
dends from Oakcs Allien I
Unquestionably Lo agreed to lake the
stock, and did receive dividends npon
it. Tho letter plainly implies that he
had not coiiccah d, nor tried to conceal
that fact from me. Rut Lis admission
was coupled with a statement which
Lowed Lim to be guiltiest'.
It, Did Le decline tome that he
would go Is'fore the Poland Committee
and testify truly that he Lad taken the
stock ?
1 had no pic ions conversation with
boil about Lis testimony before tLe Po
land Committee, uiut I i!i, not kiiow
what it would 1st ntitil I Ik aid it de
livered.
III. Did I adixennd urge Lim to
tell the truth T
No; certainly not. Such advice nnd
urgency would Iiiivh Im-cii it most out
rageous iiiHiilt, which I could not oiler
to any gentleman of Lis cLaracler.
I '. Did L agree to adopt tLe line
j of ih Ti'tiM" snggi sled by me I
, . You Mem to think that I was Lis
counsel, t was not ; but, ns Lis friend
and a lit in lx'liever in Lis jeifi-et inno
cence, I wits extremely aiivious that he
i.holi'd get safely out of this lilifotttl
liate businesM. After it began to I
di.iv iissed in the lie wfipiipcra, and before
tin committee was appointed, I be
sought him to make no statement for
the public rye which might be incon
sistetit with what Le Lad said to me.
I .est Le luiglit forget it, or Uiiss tlm i lit
portant points, I res-.lted tLe siiljstonce
of it somewhat carefully. He did not
reply, nnd I learned noon afterwatd that
In; Lad uutl.oiied a total and flat con
tradiction. Simultaneously, tLe otLer
membeis X Congress wbo were imjili-
catel made separate statements of tLe
mono kind, assuring the public tLat
tliey La-I never taken or owmsl any of
the stock, or received any dividends
ujon it.
V. Why, nccirding to my under
standing of the f.u-t, did Oarliel.I adopt
a defense so contrary to that Le Lad
agreed on !
1 Lave already said tLat Le made no
.igrcemeiit uUuit it. His reason for
ubandoiiins tLe true ground of Lis do-ft-nse
wn, doulitli-ss, tLe necessity Le
f.-lt himself under of making common
Cat:s with tits Wilitical litelnin, for
whom there was no refuge except in a
fundamental falsehood.

'Col." Hawkins, in Lis Lebanon
speech last Friday iiight, became so ve
Leir.ent in Lis denunciations of Dciinv
crats that many f Lis auditors v- ere
supremely disgusted, and when he af
firmed that Le Lad no part nor parcel
with Democrats in any way that he
even did not want to associate with a
Democrat his language and manner
were so malignant that many of Lis Re
publican bearers left tlie meeting.
As a sequel to LU speech . wo may
state that ho could not secure the as
sistance of the Republicans to give him
another ineeting in Linn county. He
was not invited 19 spek nnd was not
further countenanced by the Republi
can managers, but was sent on his way
to California with the solemn injunc
tion whispered in Lis car by tLo .dis
gusted faithful, "For goodness sake,
don't come again !"
And Le proLably never will.

was largep by one-third than that of

over two hours long not a single person
left tho hall. In the evening Lo was
seienaded and tLe young ladies of tlie
city sLowered Lim with jboquets. He

dared not pronounce against the pay
ment of these claims, when the fact is
that there is no more determined oppo
nent of the whole war shit" than the
Southern people.
The Alabama Demociacy speak out
on this question in an address to the
Democracy from the State Central
Committee, thoroughly endorsing (Jen.
Hancock's letter on the Southern
( 'lainis. und. snniminsr tin, says : " )ur
party in Alabama stands committed by
its pint form, by tho action of every de
partment of all the State government
and by tbe judges of its courts elected
by it first, to an acceptance of tLe re
milts of tLe war ; second, to tho equal
political rigLts of every citizen ; tLird,
to the faithful maintenance of the pub
lie credit, htflte nnd national, and un
flinching opjiosition to the tepitdiation
of any public obligations ; fourth, to
the free and fair exercise of tlie elect
ivo franchise, and fifth, to the strictest
economy in tho administration of pub
lic nflairs." f
The Hancock Association of .Louis
iana have also held a meeting endors
ing Hancock's position, and tho New
i leans Uemaeral says : "We are glad
that Ceneral Hancock has at last qoken
on this subject in a manner to lay at
rest tho biigulmo of Southern claims
forever, and nowhere, in the country
will his emphatic utterances receive
moro hearty and cordial indorsement
tlinti in tLo Southern States."
The Memphis Apinl, the Mobile
lli-ij'mlfr, and the North Carol nut und
Virginia pa jiers come to our table
freighted with cordial, epen and hearty
endorsements of (Jen. Hancock's jssi
lion on tliis qni-stion, sliowing com-la
wve!y that the South is unqualifiedly
opposed to the payment of any rebel
war claims whatever ; hence tLat great
Northern Radical journal, the New
Voik Tim, has well summed up the
matter in its editorial article the morn
ing after the issuance of Hancock's let
ter. That pajter very promptly averred
that '"Gen. Hancock's position tqsn
this question is conclusive. He ihs-s
not sneak Is.-hind a forced construction
of tho fourteenth amendment, but Jc
dares Lis js-rsonal purjste in regard to
legislation which the amendment does
not cover. The ossuranee which he
gives does credit to Lis honesty and Lis
independence, and is one which every
intelligent citizen, nhstevcr Lis joli
tics, will rejoice to receive. TLe coun
try can now devote its attention to otL
er and graver issues between tLe two
parties, of w Licit there is no lack, and
os to which the position of Gen. Han
cock is completely identified with that
of his party."
If the New Vol k Tiui'-s the great
Radical headlight of the Republican
party can afford to believe Hancock,
and believe the jieopl-t of the South,
who assert positively ami unequivocally
that this question of tho payment of
ivla-I war claims will tierrb fonsnfrrr-l
fiirorahti, it is time that such orators
as Mitchell, Williams, GiLh and others
should devote their time to other and
graver issues between the two parties.
VtMV ARK THE! MI Ki: t
Hayes Is Just leaving the North Pa-
ciflc coast, nnd yet tho Cincinnati
Commercit il declares that "a state of
war exists in the South." It Is a
Is-autiCtil Administration, then, which
runs away from Washington at such
a icrilom time and junkets in Oregon
and California. If "a state of war ex
ists in tho South," and tho Republi
can Administration cannot keep the
peace, tho sooner It is knocked out of
power 'ho N;tter.
THK IMClMttX Mt.tlKI.lt I III F,
I lore is the way the Oregonum prods
up its present Republican delegation
in the Legislature : "It Las been
clmrged tLat one of tLe members from
Multnomah has been drunk at the cap
ital and has neglegted the business of
tho session. Tho people only wish that
tho business cf tho session were more
generally neglected. Jf Multnomah
can find where that member got Lis
wLisky, it ought to send every niemWr
of the delegation a barrel of it."
If tho condition of affairs In the
".solid south" is anything like as bad
as the silly radical editors anil stump
speakers represent, Is It not about
time that thcro should be n cliango of
administration. If fifteen years of
radical legislation has failed to result
in peace and good government then
It Is better that jye have an adminis

There was a grand Hancock rally in
Fittsbnrg, Tenii., on Saturday, The
proceedings weto entirely under the
control of converts from tho Republi
can patty. There were loO vice-presi
dents all late Republicans men of
high standing and influence. TLeie
were about twenty thousand jiersons
present, and tlie greatest enthusiasm is
said to Lave prevailed. Col. Forney
spoke, und we make the following quo
tation from Lis admirable address :
For Lis own part, Lo said, Le comes
back, after years of absence in tLe Re
publican fold, to Lis old political house
hold (the Democracy; because lie nnds
there nil the ideas for which he con
tended during the hist twenty two years
cordially adopted and honestly carried
out. "After fifteen years ol attempted
reconciliation ; after ten years of at
tempted reconstruction ; after large
numbers of Republicans had joined the
standard of Horace Oreeley in 1872,
proclaiming that tho hour for settle
ment and peace Lad come ; after Cen.
Grant himself had over and over again
declared that the South was already
fitted for government and abundantly
deserving of trust and confidence sud
denly, after the sacrifice of the greatest
soldier of the time at-Chicago, General
Carfield was selected ns the candidate
of the Republican party, and placed be
fore the eop!e as tho ajststle of re

to choose him wilh all his sins upon his
head, covered over with his own con
fessions of wrong-doing in the councils
of the nation, detected in the very act
by a committee of his own parly, de
nounced by tho pe of Lit own dis

saying nothing but what is taken from
the archives of th Republican J-artv
itself,) is one of those spectacles that
can onlv bo explained ujxjn the theory
that the Republican managers lost their
reason nnd Lad determined to confirm
tLeir title to universal distrust and to
prcpate tLeir wav fur deserved defeat

such a record, the j-eople of tLe Cnited
