Barnett Burveyor . ." E. F. Sharp Superintendent of Public Schools. . .Troy Shelley Coroner William Michell History constantly repeats itself be cause hnman nature never changes. What men have done under certain cir cumstances others may be reckoned upon . to do under like circumstances. History is full of ins tances where the , generation that succeeded that which hounded a man to his death held an . apotheosis over his ashes. The children of the men who drove Lincoln to an un timely grave or sympathized with his : assassination plant flowers over his tomb and unite with the rest of the world in calling. him the martyr president. -General John A. Sutter, spent his whole private fortune in defense and . relief of the California Argonauts, work that properly belonged to the United States government. For long years he prayed congress for the relief that was his righteous due. Congress refused his prayer and General Sutter died in neg lect and poverty and of a broken heart. ' Now we are told that the house commit tee on library has "reported favorably a joint resolution in the shape of a me morial to the state of California in honor of the memory of General John A. Sut ter. The resolutions declare that the California pioneers and the native sons . of the Golden West deserve the thanks of the people for their' efforts in saving from decay Sutter's fort near Sacra " mento, and that the United States con gress completes this testimonial of Gen eral Sutter's worth by the adoption of the resolution." - It was adopted of course. Such things always are. They cost nothing. Bnt bow forcibly this tardy justice reminds one of the apostrophe of itbeSreat Teacher to men of like charac ter in his day. "Woe unto you, Scribes and Pharisees, . hypocrits, because ye build the tombs of the prophets and gar--nish the sepulchres of the righteous and - say, II we had been in the. days of our - fathers, we would not have been par- - taker with them in the blood of the ,vprophets. Wherefore ye are witnesses unto yourselves that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets. Fill ye up the measure of your fathers. Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell !" The gross inequalities that exist in the matter of the salaries of publie officers in this Btate are forcibly illustrated by the fact that a justice of the peace in Portland legally makes more than a jus tice of the supreme court in Salem, a 'clerk of the court more than the. two judges, a recorder of conveyances more than ten good book keepers could get in business offices, and a sheriff more than all the others put together. But we need not go away ,. from ,. home to find proofs of the same inequalities. Here it may be roughly said a . clerk draws twice as much as a circuit judge, more than five times more than than a county judge, six times more than a school superintendent, five or six times, more than an assessor, seven or eight times more per day than a, state senator, or representative ; and yet all of these latter officers need natural and acquired, gifts that may be wholly wanting in a "clerk. It's a pretty system, take it all round. ' Silver is now . cheaper . than it ever was in the history of the world and this in spite of the fact that the Sher man law was intended to , create a market for all the silver produced in the United States. It is absurd to say, as some do whose theories on finance do not square with this fact, . that . silver -. does not decline in value; it is gold that; has increased. There is not commodity in the world that has not declined in value in the last twenty years. New processes of production and manufacture have made silver cheaper, as they have every thing else and the present price of silver only proves "that that " commodity is subject to the same law of supply and demand that governe the price of every thing. ' - '- ' . ' A Life la Various Prisons. ' ' ; Tha recorder of Liverpool recently sentenced to prison for three months at hard labor for housebreaking a man with this history: far 1845 sen tenced to fourteen years' transportation. In 1863, having returned, he . got ten years for stealing half a crown. " In 1873 he got seven years for stealing a "hair plait." ; Then came sentences - of . five years in 1883 for stealing a watch and another five years In 1886 for stealing two shillings in all forty-one rears, Tew York Sun. - -- The supreme' court has reversed the decision of Judge Boise in the matter of the "saw dust" section of the act to pro tect salmon ond other food . fishes. . An action was brought to test ; the matter and Judge Boise held that the section was void because the constitution pro vides that every act shall emprace but one subject and matter- properly con nected therewith in its title.
