A CUTli MOVE.
Count; Clerk Uailey bu made
urand iUnd play for the approval ol Uie
tax payer of the county, and at tbe
same time made a wove which be uo
doubt tbiuki will prevent any material
reduutiuti ol bin r-alary by publiebiug a
sUtetneiit iu which bv plt-duce to itturn
lu tbe cuuuty treasmci the buui ol
m year from liia salary cf IJoOO per
year at county clctk, and a letter which
be claims to have written to Kepresenta
live Wilson in which ho asks hiui to in
troduce a bill nt the conilun eeeeiou of
tbe legislature, reducing tbe salary of the
county clerk from $2MM Im er to
f.WO ier year. What uiatnauimity bo
shows, lie will dining his term of of
lice turn into the couuty treasury out of
tbe sum of fKKW, which he will receive
during bis term, tbo uiuniliccut sum
of $300, and keep tho balance of H300.
lie cau get along with that.
lie doesn't say aulhiu about the
sum of tlNtX) ptr year lor tleik hire,
making a grand loUil of f for his two
years term. And this is the mau who
two years ago made bis cauvas of this
county as a candidate for state senator,
and pledged himself iu almost every
school houre aud public hall iu tbo
county, that if electcJ to the legislature,
be would use all honorable means to re
duce the salary of the county clerk to
f 1200 and amend tbe law eo as to allow
the clerk but one deputy, and who dur
ing the but campaign pledged himself
if elected, to make the saiuo reductious
in the excused if tbe otlkc.
And this is reform according to the
populist idea. Well, Mr. Galley will be
beld strictly to bis anti-election pledgee
or we lniss our guees. Douglas county
Las one man in the legislature at least,
who will not so readily fortet the pledgea
made to the voters of the county, and
that is Hon. A. W. Heed, state senator
from Douglas couuty. The republican
platform on which beuatu Keed was
nominated and elected and which he
pledged himself to carry out, declaied
In favor of a reduction of the salary of
tbe couuty cierk. to fioou per er,
that he be allowed but one deputy at a
salary of (S03 per year, and pledging the
candidates nominated at that convention
for tbe legislature to use all honorable
means to make such changes iu tbo
law.
Mr. Gazley when be accepted the of
fice of county clerk knew that Senator
Reed was pledged to this reform, and
that as an honorable msn he would do
all In bia power to brine it about. All
this talk of Mr. Gazley and the Ke
view about tbe fusion members of tbe
legislature accomplishing anythiag along
this or any other line is silly and they
know it. Bath branches of the legis
lature are overwhelmingly republican,
and any legislation by that body will
be enacted by republicans.
Mr. Galley's gentrous offer to work
for $2250 per year, or rather to draw that
amount of salary while his two deputies
do the work, while the county treasurer
does all the work of bis office for $1000
per year, and tbe county judge all of the
work of his office at a salary of $1-00 per
year, makes one smile.
The county treasurer does more actual
work in a month than Gazley will do
during his whole term of office, and
every one who has been about tho two
offices know it. Besides the county
treasurer must give a bond of $30,000,
while tbe clerk gives a bond of but $10
000. The county judge for a paltry $1200
per year does more actual woik ten
times over than does the county cierk
and his responsibility is oue hundred
fold greater. When we epe.ik of the
work done by the clerk, wo mean the
work done by him individually and not
by his deputies. We have had consider
able business with all tbo departments
of county business and with the excep
tion of the couuty clerk's ollice, which
draws $1500 per year out of the couuty
treasury and at least f'QO per year as
fees which are not turned into tbe treas
ury, that the county officers aio uot, in
our private opinion, overpaid. There
should however be a readjustment, nut
only of the duties but of tho salaries of
tbe sheriff and treasurer. The treasurer
should be made the tax collector. There
is no seu se in haviug tbe tax payers step
into tbe abei ill's office to pay their
taxes, which are immediately taken by
the sheriff and paid to the treasurer,
Why not have the money paid directly
to the treasurer by the tax payer, and
thus do away with oue set of books and
the trouble and expense of keeping
them?
There is another thiug which shows
tbe absurdity of Mr. Gazley'a proposi
tion to donate to the couuty the sum of
$250 per year, and that is the fact that
the county treasurer would Lave uo uu
thority to receive it. The couuty has no
"conscience fund ' into which it could
be turned, and if be did take it be would
bare no authority to pay it out for any
purpose as there is no such fund provid
ed and no law for its application. But
the legislature will no doubt help Mr.
Uazley to keep his auli electiou promises
by reducing his salary to $1500 per year
aid relieving him of oue deputy. If
Mr, Wilson aud his colleagues
in tbe lower house will assist Senator
Heod iu this aud other remedial legisla
tion they will demonstrate the wisdom
of the voters of Doughs rounty In elert
!ng tlii'in, but, if like Uaaley, thev shall
give Ibe ixople a itona where they
promised bread, they will receive tbe
severe condemnation of tbe members of
all parties. We shall see.
Why should the county clerk receive
f2Mj0 per year salary, or even J2000 per
year, as Galley wants tbe legislature to
6s it, and $500 per year fees, for doing
nothing, his deputies cau do all tbe
work, while the couuty treasurer, coun
ty judge, assessor and kauperintendeuts
schools each do all tbelr own work, and
uot one of them uceivea slaiytox
ceed$l?00aear? A good reliable, competent man, who
knows what be it talk lug about, told us
the itber day that be would agree to do
every lick of work iu the county clerk's
office and hire all the help be needed for
$2000 per year, and that he would nive a
bond of $10,000 to do tbe work properly.
He sa s the work is not over half what
it used to be.
It is a prominent fact that all thess
democrat aud populist pspeis which ad
vise their members of the legislature net
to vote lor any kind of a (republican for
United Slates senator, also advise the
republicans to caucus on l uited Mates
senator aud recommend II. W. Corbet t
as the proper erson for them to unite
ou.
Why is the time of oue competent offi
cer worth more than another? Why
should Gailoy receive $2500 per yer for
eittiug iu his office from 8 a. ru. to 5 p.
ui., while the county judge, county
treasurer, assessor and school superin
tendent keep the same office hours and
receive fiom $300 to $liAX) per year, 4
It is found that the judicial oath is a
barrier to the senatorial aspirations of
Judges S. A. Lowell, Robert Lakin, M.
C. George aud other?. Thev have all
taken au oath which sas: "I will not
accept any other office except judicial
offices duriug the time for which I have
becu elected."
As both tbe republican senator and
the fusion representatives are pledged to
reduce the salary of the county clerk
front $250(1 to $1500 per year, and to pro
vide but oue deputy at a salary of $SX)
per year, it ought to be any easy mat
ter to give the taxpayers that much re
lief at least.

TONQUE'S VIEWS.
Representative Tongue on the Mcara
gua Canal.
HiLLsiiOK'j, Or., ept. 1G. Kepresent-
ative Tbomaa H. Tongue received tbe
following from tLd New York Times:
"Tbe events of the war, and in par
ticular the voyage of the Oregon, have
giveu fresh importance to the plana for
the construction of the Nicaragua canal.
We feel that tbe public would be much
interested to know the views of senators
and members of congress as to tbe exe
cution of this project. The New York
Times would be pleased to receive and
publish your answers to the following
jUei ico .
"First Do you favor the prompt con
etruclion of the Nicaragua canal?
"fiecun J Do vou favor the principle of
the Morgan senate bill, by which the
United States government will become
practically tbe controlling owner of the
American Usual Company, aud under
write tho company's bonds (at a low
rale of interest; for au amouut sufficient
to buiid tho canal, thus practically mak
ing the canal national property and sub
jectiug.it to national control .'
"Third Do you prefer that the govern
mcnt lend uo financial aid or support
for tbe construction of the canal, and
that it be left entirely to private enter
pride. If so, do you think upon this ba
sis a prompt coustructiou of tbe canal is
probable?"
ICepreseutative Tongue replied as fol
lows :
"l-'irst -1 wont em piratically do. I re
gard this improvement as the most im
portant that can bo commeuced and ul
timately achieved by tbe present admin
istration. There is no manner in which
the United States could expend the same
amount of money and entail so many
and so great natioual benefits. This is
especially true so far as tbe Western
portion of the United States is concerned.
The seat of empire iu the United States
is moving westward. Tbe greatest devel
opment iu the United States in the com
ing years will be the West. Eventually
the commerce on the 1'acifio will rival
that upon tbe Atlantic. The trade be
tweeu America and Asia will gain very
largely upou, aud eventually equal that
between tho United States and Europe.
We are iu a position to hold aud control
this hade. Iu the main it should aud
will be ours, Nothing would help to
briug about this result so much as tbe
couBtructiou of the Nicaragua canal and
Hit intention of tho Philippine islands.
"To your, second i'ietion: Permit
me to say that I have not studied the par
ticulars of the Morgan senate Mil, and
without doing eo should not be willing
to commit un tell unreeervcdly I j all its
term. But I desire tosvolbc vaoal
constructed and controlled by this gov
ernment. "To your third quesUuu ; I do uot be
lieve the coustructiou uf the canal whullv
by private capital, without Kf i nuit ut
aid, is probable for yean to come."
