It will be noticed from our tele grams of this week that ilie members of the New York Chamber of Com merce are subscribius; lare sum of money to, and are raising a fond of $250,000 to be presented to Mrs. Garfield as a token of esteem and sympathy, and as a means of reliev ing the mind of the President from anxiety with regard to the future of hi family. In one sense this is a -inmendable undertaking, and it is no doubt given by the donors with f!ie be? t of motives, and if accepted v t- have no doubt that it will be re e ived with a like feeling and with li'e wattle motives. In another view o' the matter, however, on general p:inciples we must regard litis kind ol a proceeding with some degree of hisi'ancy, and pause for a moment to consider as to whether or not such a precedent will result in any general good to the public at large, or wheth er under some circumstances dona tions of large sums from extensive moneyed interests for the direct ben efit of high officials of the govern ment and their families may not sometimes have a tendency to inter fere with the just and equal adminis tration of the government. It is reasonable to conclude without doubt that such a rule is not a safe one to be tolerated, because large corpora tions and extensive moneyed interests of all kinds too frequently put forth their utmost efforts to control the legislative, executive and judicial de partments of the government, both National and State, and if such a precedent is once established, no mat ter how innocent it may be in its in ception, the practice of it may degen erate into a means of exerting an in fluence upon our high officials to an extent which may interfere with a jii6t and fair administration of gov ernmental affairs. While this dona tion, if accepted, will no doubt be re ceived with the best motives by the President and his imily, and the President, it he gets wtll, will not intentionally permit it to influence lint actions, yet all such thines have I hotr ilifinnniQ oiwl If io tii.rl.lir un. mmm mm v , u va iv .

FROM NEWPORT. Editors Gazette. The "glorious Fourth'" is a thing of the past, and was duly celebrated by the people on the Bay, both by campers and resi dents. Hundreds of people from Benton, Polk and Linn counties came in to spend the day at the ocean, and are scattered from Beaver creek on the South Beach to Dntcher's creek rn the North Beach. A number have their camps around Newport. Some in Sleepy Hollow, and at least thirty tents are at Fred Olson's. For real enjoyment, however, give me a tent away from all sights and sounds that reminds me of noisy towns and busy men. So those really desirous ef rest and pleasure will fiui it fat preferable to leave Newport behind them. Unless, like some of the Soap creekers. or Luckiamutes, ' noise is necessary to happiness." Much indignation is felt by the Ya quinaite propper, that the bay should vecieve such a name as it does. Koudies from every direction will gather into Newport and keep the town lively with their ruffianism, and eo visitors catalogue them as speci mens of inhabitants. This is a shame. Last Saturday a party of the genus hoodlum from outside, smashed the window of a saloon, broke up a ball and indulged in three fights. The screams and yelling by the same set on the Fourth, entirely did away with any need of guns and firecrack ers. It'ri vailed the roar of the Ocean or the Chinese ton-ton. Bad whiskey aided, and altogether it reminded one very strongly of Pandemonium. Of course this does not apply to all visitors.. TRe majority of pleasure seekers are well lied and quiet, but the sprinkling wf rowdies really makes the resort almost unendurable, and tends to drive away the better class of people. However, Mr. Irvine of the Ocean House has been appointed U. S. deputy marshal, and visitors need not fear so much trouble here after. Upon the evening of the Fourth there were two balls, which were managed very peaceably. The one at Wrighte hall was perhaps one of the ph asantest ever held at Newport. The picnic at Little Elk was quite a success and largely attended. The Indians on the agency held a celebration also, and bad a granl time after their own fashion. It is remarkable how they aspire after the names of famous men. You will find Abraham Lincoln. Andrew Jackson, Henry Clay, U. S. Grant, and even Garfield represented among them. Speaking of the Agency, reminds me that I had the pleasure of paying it a flying visit. It has vastly im proved during the last few years. The grounds and Agency building have been renovated until the place presents quite a pleasing pi:tnre as yon look down upon it from the Indian grave yard. Mr.. Swan is counted very success ful in managing the finances of the Agency, and has made it self sus taining. N lazy Indian is allowed atSile'.z. It is either work or guard house. The boarding school is ably mai -aied by Mrs. Taft an eastern lady, who is as real a missionary as though she were earing for the "Heathen Chinee." The salary is merely nom inal, so she must p reliance take her remuneration in doing good. She has about forty five indian children in her charge. No one can realize what work so many Indian children make. Bni it certainly pays. It' the. Oregon people would turn their attention to the heathen among thorn, the reward would be as sure as in sending money to India or Japan. These Indians are here and common humanity insists .upon their being educated, so they may take care o! themselves. It is as one of the chil dren said when told to take care of his l it lies because they were U. S. clothes. "Yt-s and I am United States boy." So he is. There is an immense difference baween these children now and half a dozen years ago. They are kept as clean as white children, through the indefati. gable labor of the matron and her two assistants and are taught to sew, cook, keep house, and make garden, besides learning to read and write. Who will deny but that this will bring its own reward? The work of these self sacrificing ladies, for that they must be called, as they eschew all society and labor constantly for the good of those in their charge, is a sermon in itself one not easily foi gotten. I had intended speaking of other matters but lest I take up too much space, I close. "Kisar." MR. GEORGE'S EXPLANATION, Portland, July 12, 1881. Ed. Gazette : In your very com plimentary mention of my recent ad dress at Albany on July 4th you state in substance that thefriends of Yuquina would join issue with me on 6ome idea which you say "seemed" to pervade my argument that the Co lumbia river was the one outlet to the sea for the whole of this vast North west. From this I fear that a mis taken idea mi ht exist. Now whatever the situation may at present be (and which, by the way, is a mere question of "fact" rather than of "argument") yet so far as the fu ture is concerned my intentiou in that address was clearly to express myself in accordance with my firmly fixed judgment that the imperative demand now is, and ever will be, more espe cially in view of the vast controlling power over transportation by a single gigantic n 1 concentrated monopoly, that every available means of exit for our produce should be utilized to the fullest extent. And without multiplying words or consuming more of your space I will simply state that my words shall at test my belief, and while I shall labor to develop all our transportation fa cilities everywhere in our Slate, I shall do all in my power through the securing of government aid and oth erwise to render the harbor entrance at Yaquina as perfect as nature and Uncle Samuel's money, fairly and justly distribvted, can make it. One other matter. The subject, "The Future of theGreat Northwest," was not of my selection. I was in vited by the honorable committee to deliver a "short address" on that theme, and in the short spsce of an hour's lime I necessarily had to treat it generally, and while preserving its proper symmetry I was necessarily compelled to omit much that would have been of more especial interest to us of the Willamette Valley. It was supposed up to a lite hour that the committee would be able to Lsecnre another to deliver the formal address customary on such occasions. Very respectfully yours, M. C, George.
