The following statement should set at rest any doubts the public may entertain as to Mr. Driver's personal intention or atti tude upon that question : Portland,. May 18, 189G. To Whom It May Concern: At all meetings of the sheriff's conventions of the state of Oregon, T- J. Driver, sheriff of Wasco county, expressed himself as being in favor of having the law, as to the com pensation of sheriffs remain as it was, and m the event of any change in said compensation of sheriffs be ing made by an act of the legisla ture, he would not oppose such change, but would continue to act in such matter under the law as tt ex isted at the time of his assuming the duties of sheriff of Wasco county. . ' . Geo. C. Sears. Pres. of Sheriff's Convention. upon the people, and is one of the chief causes of the existing financial distress. Upon these bonds it, is now proposed to throw $100,000,000 of treasury notes, or national war rants. The proposal will meet with a whirlwind of popular indignation. There has never a word of reproof or criticism been uttered, that we have ever heard, regarding Mr. Kelsay's management of the county clerk's office, lie has held the office but ODe term, and if the people ap preciate a good officer in a respon sible position, they will endorse his conduct, by reelecting him county clerk. ANOTHER MISSTATEMENT , CORRECTED. JL few days ago the Mountaineer contained an article charging Sheriff T. J. Driver with lobbying at Salem in the interests of the sheriff's mile- A report has originated, and the circulation commenced of a story by a friend of Judge G. C. Blakeley. that when he as sumed the office of county judge of Wasco county he found the county $110,000 in debt, and that he has reduced this amount to such an ex tent that should he be re-elected, in another year he will wipe out the debt entirely. It is needless to say that this silly fable will not be cir culated among that class of men who read The Chronicle, or any other publication. ' It is meant for the ig norant and uninformed, and the man who started it says the story will be circulated widely the coming week. Any reader of The Chronicle knows that the county debt is a few hundred dollars greater than when Mr. Blakeley assumed the office. But this story will have its effect. There are those in every community who cannot, or do not, read, and they will believe it, and believing it, will vote for Blakeley. - Senator Gorman's proposed issue of $100,000,000 of treasury certifi cates to pay the deficit between the current revenues and expenditures of this government will startle the country to a clearer, knowledge of the distress of the United States treasury. This deficit began with the Cleveland administration, and has been deep seated and continu ous. It has forced nearly $200,000, 000 additional bonded indebtedness Mr. Butts has performed bis share in saving the county expense in the matter of inquests, and might have held twice as many if his object were only to milk the count'. The spirit is worthy of wide emulation, and he deserves re-election to encourage such a. policy in other office-seekers. The DlnooTerj Saved Din Life. Mr. G. CailIontte Druggist.
