The reason of the delay in this is, that Drake's- attorney appealed hi case to the Supreme Court, which Court made no decision in regard to the same until after the October term of the Circuit Court had ad journed. At the Supreme Court affirmed the decision of the lower Court, it was necessary for the defendent to be resentenced, which Judge Boise claims cannot be legally done ex cept while the Circuit Court it In session, tnd Tuesday being the first day of the February term, he wot accordingly, sentenced to be hanged on Iriday, March 20, 1885.

Smiat Ciiamdkr, I Salih, Feb. 12, 1885. j EtHToa Ecoexi CiTr G",abi:- Dear. Sir. Suite surprise having been expressed at my vote on Senate bill Ao 40, whicn pur ports to rrguluW fare and the transportation of freight upon the railroad in this State, permit ,me in at fow wordt at possible, to state the reasoys why 1 Voted against the bill. First, The Legislatuie of Oregon hat uo authority to make tuch a law, Iwoause con trary to the constitution of this State, and the laws uuder which the corporation took their origin. Siuce the decisiwn of, the Su pre in e court of the United Sta'et iu 1876, declaring that the Legislature of Iowa had authority to regulate fares and freights npou the railroads in that State, aud subsequent duuisiout in 1SS'. that Illinois and W if con in had like authority, the press of the coun try and the people have come to believe that every State Legislature has lucb authority Whereas, in fact the Supreme court in these ease i rocoguire there may be exceptions. It ays; "It i now too lute to contend that the charter of a corporation u not eontract within the meaning of that clause in the constitution of the United States, which prohibits a State from pasting any law impairing the obligation ot a ooutract Whatever it granted, it secured subject only to the limitations aud reservation iu the charter or iu the law or constitution which uoveru It. liuilroails are subject to Legis'auve control at to their rates of fare and treiglit, unlets protected by the char ier.': II vol U,$ R. p Ifll. The oases decided by the Supreme court of the Uujtod States were not protected by their charters, but on the coutrary, in the Iowa caiet were "subject at all time to tucli rules and regulations as the general at se.nbly of Iowa, might from tune to time award aud prescribe." Now then with these rulings that the chartu uf the corporations protect them from Legislative control, what would be the decision of tnit augutt tribunal npon a case, wi:h thit clause iu it charter or the law under which it took its origin. "livery corporation formed under this chapter for the construction ot a rail way aa to such road shall be deemed com mon carriers, aud shall have power to collect aud receive such tolls or freight for trans portation of persou or properly thereon, at it may prescribe." Code) page 532, section 3b'. iSot what the Legislature may pre scribe, but it the corporation may prescribe. This bill uudertakes to prescribe what fare and freight shall be collected; thus im pairing a contract, which, the Supreme court, oi the United States saj a cannot be done by the Legislature, because what it granted by the charter, is secured from Legislative con trol, and it is also contrary to the constitu tion of the State of Oregon, Article eleven, Section two. "Corporations may be formed under general laws. ,, AH law passed pur suant to thit section may be altered, amended or repealed, but uot so us to impair or de stroy any, vested corporate. rights, , This au tlioiitv in sejtiou 30; "to collect tod receive such fare and freight for the transportation of person and property therein as it may prescribe," Is a veted right in the law under which the corporations took their origin, which the coustitutiou Of this State and the Supreme court of the United States saya cannot be impaired by the Legislature. liii is the legal reason and if for uo other would have inlltiei.ced .my vots, aud I may say here by way of parenthesis, two years ago I introduced a bill to repeal Section 3b', aud gH it ut nf the charter of future cor porations, but the bill wat smothered iu committee room, ., This communication i now too long to as sign iu detail , other objections to the bill Which will bo. discovered by the people soou enough for them to do at I have done, con deuib.
