ATTORNEY AT LAW.
OFFICIAL PAPER FOR BENTON COurtTY
Why should not the citizens of
Gorvallis and of" Bc-ntou county and
those living in the vicinity take liol.l
of the matter and work u; the ques
tion of establishing and building &
woolen factory at this place? Man
ufacturing interests are always the
best thing that can be encouraged
for any community. It affords em
ployment for so many persons.
It has been suggested and we think
its capital idea for the new City
Council before laying plans for their
future work to ascertain the amount
of funds raised for the city from all
sources during the past year and
then ascertain in what manner it has
been spent and what it has been spent
for. By so doing it will furnish some
thing of a guide as to what is best
lo do in future in order to avoid any
mistakes of tho past.
There is occasionally somebody
who makes a practice of going along
the sidewalk and where they find a
plank where the nails have become
loose they pick up the plank and
hurl it into the street leaving a great
hole in the sid.-walk. These parties
had ought to be taken before the
recorder a few limes aud caused to
pay their respects to that officer in
tho way of depositing a fine for their
trouble. It might have the effect to
prevent them from tearing up sidewalks.
MX reasonable eouYpt rtsafion lot
the services rendered. The Marshal's
comDensatior: should undergo a like
investigation because it has been
suggested by some that Ins pay is
also too hi ah although we doubt it
very much.
A CURIOUS COMMENT.
I he Kiirene uttara ot last issue
says "the rulings in life Abrams case
by judge Bean are universally com
mended by the people." The case
above alluded to is the one in which
Abrams was tried at Eugene City
last week for the murder of Dr.
Biow nice last January. The remark
above quoted from the Guard is a
peculiar one. What, a judges rulings
on a murder trial has to do with the
favorable opinion of the people is
something that 'we never yet heard
of a newspaper or the people passing
upon. In fact no one has any right
to pass on such questions but the
Supreme Court, If a circuit judges'
rulings in a case meets with '.he fav
orable opinion of the Supreme Court
if brought before the latter tribunal
is all that is required and the people
at large have no business with it.
Judg Bean no doubt ruled in ac
cordance with what he understood
the law to be which was his duty to
do and the people have no business
with the question. If he erred in
judgment it is the duty of the Su
preme Court to attend to it and no
business of the people or press to
comment upon.
Corvallis has two district schools
each having a large number of schol
firs. Would it not be a great bene
fit to the educational interests of this
place if both districts were thrown
into one district and then build a
school house for the purpose and
with the vie of having a graded
school? The two districts draw
about two thousand dollars a year
from the common school fund.
With this fund all together by ad
ding' a litile more to it a graded
school with three very good teach
ers could be kept up throughout f the
whole year. Who will make a move
in this direction ?
The people at the ballot box have
spoken against it. The candidates
for several previous elections have
rnn on platforms which denounced
it, and yet there ivas not a single
legislator in the last Oregon session
who had the courage to come for-
ward in obedience to the expressed
will of his constituents and make an
attempt to repeal the infamous school
book swindle. The lion in favor of
the school book monopoly was more
than their timid hearts could resist.
And therefore the people are yet
compelled to pay tribute to one of
the most infamous swindles that
was ever perpetrated upon a civilized
people.
RECORDER'S FEET.
Agreatmanyof our citizens are
quite anxious to know low or by
what authority the city Recorders
ol our town charge $4 50 as their
lees incurred in eaeii case where oflen
ders arc brought before them .where
such cases go by default ? What
ordinance gives them any authority
to change any such sum ? The
amount of such fees in such cases as
understood by many are :
For administering affidavit to
complaint $ 25
Filing complaint 15
Issuing warrant of arrest 1 00
Docketing the cause 25
Entering judgment 50
Taxing costs 50
Issuing warrant ot commit
ment 50
Wherever a manufacturing town
is found a thoroughly industrious,
active and thriving people accompany
it. Then why should the people of
this section of the county wait for
other peoples enterprises to come
along ? Would it not be far better
to organize manufactures of differ
ent kinds ( Other enterprises might
beset in motion. A water ditch
costing about $25,000 could be
brought into Corvallis supplying
water in sufficient quantities to run
all kinds of machinery and it would
be a paying investment. If tho mat
ter was properly looked into this
county affords capital enough to
start several enterprises that would
be ot much benefit to the people.
It has been suggested- by some,
of our city council to give the Re
eorde.' a stated salary and let the
city take the fees that now go to
make up his compensation. Such a
course would ceriainly not be best.
It would be a repetition of the act 'of
our legislature in regard to sheriffs
and clerks which the Supreme Court
field that it was not a good and pro
per law. When a legislative body
goes to mixing up salaries and fees
together in that manner they get on
doubtful and uncertain ground. - The
best way for the council to do is to
carefully and deliberately investigate
the amount of compensation hereto
fore paid from all sources tdthe He
corder for any given number of years
sufficient to satisfy them what the
Recorder's office usually pays. After
doing this carefully if in their opinion
the pay is too high for the amount
of services rendered, then they should
adopt such a fee bill as will pay a
Total Recorders fees $3 15
But we understand that it is sel
dosn the case that our Recorders ever
issue a warrant of commitment but
instead let the Marshals hold the pri
soners by main strength without any
commitment whatever; in such cases
the Recorder would not be entitled
to charge the last 50 cents named
and would only be warranted in
charging a total of $2 65 in each
case where offenders come before
him. The difference between this
sum and the $4 50 usually charged
by the several Recorders leaves
SI 85 in each case against the city,
which sum the city for years has
been paying to her Recorders in
every case where offenders have been
unable to pay it. It is uo wonder
that we find written about the much
abused and decaying city of Corvallis.
PROTECTION.
Just now the Democratic press is
setting up a dismal howl about the
"Wolf of .Protection" etc. Some of
the most enthusiastic ot tho party
presume to prove that protection
never had uor never will have any
merits, says the Roseburg Plaindealer.
We hopo they may all take up the
ory and make free trade a red hot
issue, and time and experience have
combined to prov that they will
meet with a glorious defeat at the
hands of a sensible and thrrrking
public at the next presidential elec
tion. Every time a Democratic stump
speaker has ever spoken, and every
time a Democratic writer has ever
written, they have invariably nick
named a tariff a "tax." They take
delight in spreading their wings and
uttering in stentorian tones that the
poor man is carrying the burden of
protection ! The truth, as the ma
jorities rolled up in the past have
shown, is, that protection does pro
tect American labor, industry and
manufactory. A tariff if, not a tax,
but a protection, enabling American
manufacture and labor to assume its
proportions, without the squelching
influence of European serfdom and
ciieap goods. Does one of our la
borers want to exchange places with
one of England's slaves ?' If our
laborers are in no better condition
than England's, why don't the tide
of immigration turn to England rather
than to the United States? No surer
sign attests the prosperity of a na
tion and the condition of her people
than the tide of immigration or emigration.
rf HAT SUCCSSSruX ?) ENTERPRISE.
We would not allude to the abov
subject again if it were not for th
fact that the present ostensible edi
tor of the Benton Leader in his las
issue by adding a lie to falsehood
seeks to infeientially leave the im
pression on the public that we had
misrepresented him, which he claim
came about in the following manner
As all will no doubt remember
the issue of the Leader pf April 27tl
an article was published announcing
in effect that "the Leader whei
started, many regarded it as an ex
periment, but' the experiment ha
been successful, &c." Knowing that
such statement was a base falsehoo
or that other things connected will
it was distionest, and being awar
that whether a public journal is a
success or failure is a question o
public interest, about which the pub
lie have a right to knoW the trutl
or falsity, therefore in our issue of th
Gazette of May 4th we suggested
among other things, that if th
it T T . T-r ,
jeaaer is a success air. ilyde am
his present successor Mr. W. II
Mansfield, certainly could have pai
the two girls who worked setting
type for them for nearly a year, bn
were compelled to quit working to
that successful (?) enterprise becaus
ihey were unable to get their pay."
This man of "noble breast" (?) "Sa
tan's imp," for instance, whose little
hatchet will not prevent him from
lieing in order to induce the public
to believe that he had been misrep
resented; in the last isu? of his
Leader he published the certificate o
the two girls' in words and figures as
follows, to wit:
"Corvallis May 9, '83.
th. : - . : ti . , i
j ma ui i lines inai we nave no
claims for any amount against th
Benton Leader.""
(Signed) "Mary Thompson
Emma Thompson."
1MH tnese young ladies do not say
that they had no cla:m against the
Leader on May 4th, at the time the
Gazette suggested that if his paper
was a successful enterprise lie should
pay these girls, neither does tins
man of falsehood attempt to say any
such thing. But on the contrarv lie
knows as we before stated that these
girls a long lime ago left his employ
because his soul was so caloused to
honesty or common decency that
they failed to get their pay after
repeatedly requesting him to pay it,
after which these worthy young ladie
spoke to several of' the attorneys in
town to co'.lect it for them, and at
the time of our art'elo of May 4th
the demands of these ladies were in
the hands of a prominent lawyer of
this town for collection. But all the
entreaties of these yonng ladies and
the able assistance of learned attor
neys was entirely without any effect
whatever in collecting the bill, be
cause all that this pleasant, agreeable
and pure nin had, that man that is
so much "slandered and envied," was
deep down in the bottom of bis
pocket; and the entreaties of these
girls who had labored long and hard
could not reach it and the assistance
of attorneys by law could not get it.
But the Gazette's article of May
4th caused such a shaking up of the
"dry bones" in and about the "Sac
tum" of the Leader office that
it became too extremely tropical
for even such a pure (?) man as W.
H. Mansfield to remain around there
without fixing up matters. So after our
article ot May 4th, and before the
date of the girls certificate of May
9th, he thrust his long bony fingers
down deep into the bottom of his
pocket and brought forth the money
that could not be reached in any
other way than by our article, and
paid it to these young ladies; and
this we are able to prove. But this
man of pure BSazarac proclivities was
not satisfied then; he had to take a
peculiarly worded certificate from
these girls, so worded that he couid
publish it in the endeavor to again
deceive the public as to us, when, in
fact, our article of May 4th was the
oniy prod which compelled him to
pay those girls. If we are never
able to do any further good in jour
nalism we shall be satisfied that, we
were thus able to assist these worthy
young ladies to get their just dues
out of the bottom of that deep pock
et ot the Sazarac.
It is no doubt sir, Mr. Mansfield,
that your whole mind is made up
entirely of "rottenness and corrup
tion" and hence it is no doubt that
as you "say you have a hill of such
impnrities in your mind. But to
slander yon would be an- impossi
bility unless yon were said- tor be an
honest truthful man,. and any sensi
ble person wonld'sooner think of en
vying aman for being hung than to
envy a man whose highest ambition
in life seems to be to withhold the
pay from two honest, hard working
girls, for work done for him while be
wms running a successful (?) enter
prise, until our newspaper article
compelled him to "fish or cut bail."
