Chief Engineer Barr who was in the city over Sunday bad several personal ap plications. - Bilked Pbiksviixc The Prineville Review writes np s young roan well known In Albany, in the following live manner: "Kid" Moore who has been visiting" here for the past two or three months, suddenly jumped the town on last Sunday morning's stage. If ever a Drute needed s coat of tar and feathers it was this excuse for a human being. The evening previous to his departure he suc ceeded in getting izu from an old gray n traded woman ot this place by working upon ner leeungs, stating that be was in destitute circumstances and a whole lot of other trash, even weeping like a babe iu accomplish nis end This good oia lady could not withstand his entreaties, little dreamed be was the rascal that be is, jo she let him have $20 for a short time. His next act was to quit the town, and none to soon to please the citizens of this place. Such men as "Kid" Moore are a disgrace to the human race and the oooner people are acquainted with this morphine fiend the better off they will be. We warn all people to shun this sleek gentleman (?) as you would a viper. fSr Pure Drugs Dawson's. For Pills and Plaster Dawson In Favor of Millionaire Senato:s. At Eugene Saturday night a college I debate was held between the State Uni-' versityand Willamette University. The question under discussion was. "Re- solved, That the present system of elect- insr United Suites Senator ia nreferahlA I . i . ... ,. ... . . to that of the direct v.rte of the people," tlie U. of O. boys holding to the affirma tive and the Willamette to the negative. The debaters were 0. A. Eastland, lead er; F. M. Mulkey and C A. Winter meier, of theLanreans, and W. P. Math ews, leader; O. 8. Nicklin and O. J. At wood for the Philidoriaua of Willamette. President P. L. Campbell of Mi.ninouth, was judge, and rendered his decision in favor of the antiquated and present sys tem, ot electing U. s. senators, univers ally opposed by the people. At the risk of being called down the Democrat protests against the decisior. It woild take Demosthenean oratory on the side of the U. of O's. to overcome tlie preionderence of good argument in favor of the negative. Most oi the affirmative arguments are chestnuts and a poor ar gument should not have the weight of a good one. Some of the poor arguments for the affirmative that were accepted as gimi were; The senators chosen by the legislature will poshes. higher qualifications 'or the senate. Members of state legislatures are men of more than the average intel ligence. Thev are responsible for their public acts. They are more able than than the peoule to determine hat is needed to make a good reprsm nutive. They are not easily influenced by per sonal prejudice. Are not easily corrupt ed or urioed, Because a.seovery m easy and punishment will follow. The tendency is tor the senator if elect ed by the legislature to he cootervative, if by the people not conservative. A large percentage of the people are nar row minded, passionate, prejudiced and ignorant, and easily swayed by dema gogues to do things which will work their own injury. The value of the senate liea in its con servatism and aristocracy. It must therefore be removed from "the people. Tlie senate haa judicial and executive functions as well as legislative. Those functions aie of anch a nature as not to be thoroughly understood by the people. Resolutions of Condolence. Halsev.

The Dkmocrat recently stated that Sheiift McFeron was in the hab't of charging $5 apiece for prisoners even though the number was more than four, the law permitting $5 for lour, and where theft, are nio.-e than that $3 a piece. The statement oi the JJimocbat was correct. The sheriff in January ad- mitted to Judge Whitney that hehadit .vv McOlain et ux. Nonsuit on been in the habit of charging to apiece for all the prisoners, and tience the bills were Lot looked up. lie took the hint and since then lias charged $5 and $3. We publish below the bill for October, in order to show his previous practice: Boa -ding prisoners for month of Oct ob r: J U Boulin 81 days 713-7 cts.$22 11 A R Johnson 22 days (g5 15 71 Oeir Williams 30 days Emma Hannah ill " " " Jaa Murray 27 days " " Fred Wagner 27 " " " 21 45 22 U 19 28 19 28 $120 00 71 3-7 cents is at the rate of $a lor 7 days. - iua bill speaks for itself and shows the practice oi the sheriff from the time he took the office to January 1st. This ia a faot. At the April term, 1806, ot the county court, Mc be-on put in a bill for R. R. fare $1.40, meals, 75 cts, bed, 2i els, $2.40 for selling the 0. T. Co s stock of goods at Halsey on an execution in a civil action, to which neither the county nor state was a party and this was al lowed. He also charged the county $6.50 tor subpoenaing a witness at Portland in the laom cases, whit It was allowed ; also charged $2.55 fur serving a juryman, wnich was allowed. All this is shown by the bill on file in the clerk's office, endorsed "Allowed, J. N. Duncan, judge." At the January term, 1S90. he was al lowed for 11 prisoners in jail for 136 days $97.37 which at the rate of $5 per week for each one would be $97.17. He was alo allowed for trip lo Kingston in the civil case of Downing & Lupton l.io. This is also shown by his bill on file en dorsed "Allowed, J. N. Duncan, juchje." At the March term, 1896, he waa al lowed : Jan. 22, trip to Lyons $2 5 " 2S. trio to Spicer 1 00 Feb. 2, trip to Lebanon 4 2-" Hal-v 2 SO " " " " Shedd and Oakville, two davs expenses and feed .... 2 50 Feb. 18. trip to Minto.

In Linn county the central committee always hold secret sessions, doing their business in a pr'vate manner, which is their province and entirely proper; but in Salem their meetings seem to be very public, at leas, the Journal gives awav their doings in a lively manner. It riU8 up a recent republican central committee meeting as follows-: The committee on assessment of can dates for campaign purpose, made its report levying $100 tach against the sheriff and clerk, $50againsttheasiRitor, $20 each for the legislative candidate and soon with the remainder ot the ticket for a total an m ot f00, and this report brought a n.otion from Tillman Ford to cut down the three aaMn.t of the three leading names above, to half me sum in eacn i-a. tie said that in 1882, when he and Jui'ire Waldo rnu.U the campaign there w only $350 in the iimu ami iijey turned back nearly 20. In response to this Krmk Davev stated that in proportion o the Domilatmn ami other circumstances .T0 waa a Unmr fund for that time than $500 is for the present, that there are several more newspapers ia the e.inty now in which notice and publication of lirket are to b niade and ptid f r, fir. To this Mr. rord replied in an i x-mil manner, tha. "in those days there w no such th:ng as having to pay a n-p-ihiiccn twper for poblibhiag the ticket or republican no tices It is a pretty how-d'-do," con tinued Mr. Ford, "when we have to pay a newspaper that pretends to be repub lican for publishing the republican ticket and republican notices, if they are re pubSicjui newspapers they shonld publish them free of charge " This sally brought lorth a spirited rejoinder from Mr Davey w ho said it waa an entirety legitimate business transaction for a republican newspaper to charge for iu party 'a ad vertising, as much so aa to charge for the advertising of any of it friends and pr trcna. He said that every day and every hour, the republican newspaper ia con tributing to its party's sorceas, ao t'tat on in two years by a smalt contribution the ambitious candidate may ride into power, and the pittance received for ad vertising at soch limes should not be ac companied by slnrt. Mr. Davey's re matka received a good round of ap plause. Ford's amendment waa defeated ed and the report stood. College Notci- Rev.

Tlie public is s unit in agreeing that onder the old tyttem the fherif! and county clerk received far too much pay for their services, not only in Linn bat in every county in Oregon, twice too much The salary system was inang urated to atop that. Sheriff Jackson and County Clerk. Payne received only their legal fees, allowed by a republican count? court, and a comparison ts aimpiy rulico- muc, in iri naa training to ao wita tbe matter. The record show that Sheriff McFeron was in the habit of charging 13 for boarding prisoners, where the law allows only $3 and that the county court allowed the bills, lhat be put in bills against tbe county in matters with which the county had nothing to do. purely private cases, and that they were al lowed, and lhat the depny hire wa large. The present sheriff and judge are running for reelection and th it i the question. For the veer end icg April 1. the cost of the sheriff s office waa 444t, aa the records show. The only compar ison vet made by our ccrtemporary is be tween two aominutrations under a re publican county judge.
