The sale of the O. V. last Friday
for the pitiful sura of $200,000 have
blighted the men's hopes of secur
ing their back pay. It is now
understood than the claims in order
preferred will stand soraethiug like
this: First the court expciLses of
sale; second, the due and delin

the $40,000 in receiver's certificates
issued by Receiver Hadley last

court will be asked to confirm

is, is whether the court will so
confirm the sale, ond upon this
jiolut there are many opinions,
The men, as is stated elsewhere
are making strong efforts to pre
vent a confirmation and protest
upon protest from other interest-!
ed parties are being poured in
upon Judge Fulerton to the same
end, Should the court confirm
tee sal the men are defrauded
out of their money and the tnost(
outrageous steal of the times has
been perpetrated to a finish. The
developments of next Tuesday at
Corvallis arc anxiously awaited, 1

Representative Bowers of Cal
ifornia, lias Introduced to bill of an 1
mportant nature. It is to estab..
ish a system of postal savings banks
in the United States, every first,
second and third-class office to lie a
receiving point for depositors of not
less than $$ or more than $300 on
the same day, on which funds the
government is to guarantee interest
at three per cent, per annum. At
the request of the depositor bonds '
will be Issued to lilru by the Secre
tary of the treasury in the denomi
nation of $100, to run twenty years
at four per cent. Interest.
Mr, Howers said that his idea
was two-fold: First, to provide
means by which the people could
put their savings in a place where
its security would be absolutely i
certain; second, to open a way for)
the raising of funds for the govern- j
nient without resorting to methods!
of taxation which would be felt by j
the people. i
The small savings of the people ,
had always, he said, been a means)
of acqui lug wealth by sharp per-
i ; f : I
sons ami corporations ui vuuuus
kinds. For instance, a savings
batik was now an adjunct of nearly
all commercial banks, and the
former was used as a dumping
ground for all the worthless se
curities of the latter, so that in
some cases of failure the depositors
in commercial banks had received
four times as much of their de
posits as had the depositors in sav-
ings Institutions that were part and :
parcel of them and had failed at the
same time they did.
Mr. Bowers said he did not ex
pect the bill to pass at this session,
though he would make a strong
fight tor it. The Wall-street in
terests would antagonize it, and all .
banking interests would join them.
