In the case of the State of Oregon vs . S.
P. Chadwick and his official bondsmen, ar
gued at the last O ctober term of the supreme
court before Judges Vr atson and Waldo, an
elaborate and exhaustive opinion has been
filed-by the latter, the -former concurring.
The pith of the decision is to the effect that
he assumption of official duties is not a con-
tract, but a harden imposed by the state up-
V " ... ' .1 Li i - 3 a- ' 1.

I in tt e interest of the community and eood
government; that'no additional liability h
created by the State, requiring a bond; that
itia onjy aa additional remedy for securing
faitnfni performance of the duties which
th citizen WOVLu i,e bound to perform with
out the official undertaking; that where an
official acta in good faith and according to
his best judgment! that he is not liable for a
mistake in the law, or liable to the state for
any losses it may have sustained , by said
mistake, where the mistake was a mere error
of judgment and not willful or corrupt. The
findings of Judgej Deady, upon which the
judgment of the circuit court was enteral,
were insufficient
to show that Secretary
awick Vaher i'ted'-.ally. corrupt!
or criminally negligent in auditing any ot
the claiais upon k hich the judgment was
entered against tym and his sureties. The
judgment was seti aside and the cause re
manded to the court below for a new trial.
From the law of iho case, as laid down by
the supreme court, the .causo is virtually at
an end, for it has 'never been pretended that
Governor Chadwick acted corruptly in any
particular, or received any benefit from aud-
iting the claims upon which the defalcations
J are based, and owing to the uncertainty of
th iaUgaas8 made usa of in the statute,
I there is room for difference of opinion as to
I heir construction.'
Severe Storms in tixe Eastern States-
Diiring last Saturday and Sunday the
section of country embracing western
Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana was
flooded with the highest freshets that
have ever been known to the people of
thesg states. The damage caused by
the flood is immeasurable. - Towns and
whole sections of country have been
completely submerged. Bridges, dwell
ings and machine shops have been
swept away. A Cleveland dispatch
says: Machine shops, flour mills, pack
ing houses, factories of all kinds and
the railway freight house are more or
less submerged. The water is receding
to-night, but tbe extent of the damage
cannot be ascertained for several days.
It is estimated that 23,000,000 feet of
lumber, 10,000,000 to 15,000,000
shingles are washed frouy the lum
ber yards. The valley railroad is sev
eral feet under water for miles and
its bridge near Weighlook swept away.
Fifty horses at the stables at the lum
ber yards stood all night in water up to
their breasts and were rescued with dif
ficulty to-day, having swam several
hundred feet to reach a place f safety.
A Pittsburg telegram of February
4th says: The wild weather and heavy
rains of the past week caused the Alle
gheny river and tributaries to overflow
its banks, washing away bridges, hous
es and barns and doing damage to prop
erty between Pittsburg and Oil City to
the extent ot several hundred thousand
dollars. The river commenced rising
here this morning. No danger was ap
prehended till afternoon, when sudden
ly all the retail coal dealers' barges and
about twenty . rafts of lumber were
swept away in a few minutes. Loss,"
$100,000. Residents in the lower por
tions of Allegheny City and south side
are moving to safer .quarters at points
rJbove. The damage is estimated at
$250,000.
A Mt. Vernon special to the Leader
reports that the Kokomo river is bodtai
ing. One house is surrounded by wa
ter and a family in the upper story cut
off from assistance. The bridge on the
Baltimoie & Ohio railroad was carried
away while a freight train was crossing.
The locomotive and the foremost part
of the train sank out of sight. AH
train hands escaped except a brakeman
named Hartman, who was drowned.
Dispatches from Richmond, Shelby
ville, Fort Wayne, Connorsville in east-,
em Indiana, and from many points in
Miami and Sciota valleys in Ohio, re
port the most destructive floods for
years.
Dispatches ftom Bradford, Pa., says:
Bradford was visited Saturday night by
a disastrous flocd which inundated
about 500 homes along Pearl, GJobe,
Boilston, Ann, Florence, Pine, Main
and other steets. The lower part of
the city iibsubmerged, in some cases to
a depth of ten foet. The flood was
caused by the rains of Friday and Sat
urday" melting the snow on the-mountains.
Five bridges were swept away
and 83veral houses along the bank of
the creek were badly damaged or de
stroyed.. Many families between here
and Tarport, living in one story houses,
had to flee for their lives when the ice
gore broke, leaving all their effects,
and many houses were swept away.
It is impossible to estimate the loss.
The waters are now subsiding and all
fears of further trouble are over.

Jobs in Washington.
The wy all proposed reforms are met
and. legislation in the interest of tbe
people thwarted or defeated is shown by
the following dispatch. The Sun's
"Washington special says: The power
ful rings now gathered at Washington
exceed in number and wealth all that
have appeared here for ; eight years.
These rings expect te do their most
effective ,work in the few remaining
weeks of this congress. All the large
and many of the lesser special interests
involved in pending or in proposed
changes of the tariff are represented by
active and influential agents, outside
and inside of congress. They have
pooled their issues and will make com
mon cause. The navy ring has won the
first engagement in the house. It re
mains to be seen if the senate will con
firm Robeson's work. The great ri.ig
of land-grabbers has succeeded, by the
action of the judiciary committee of the
house, 'not only in preventing any legis
lation adverse to this immense interest,
but also in keeping the subject from
getting before the house at all.
The whisky ring will soon make., its.
last desperate effort. Tbe real truth
in this does not appear upon the surface.
The distillers and - manufacturers of
whisky have Jittle concern about the
bill passed by the senate extending the
bonded time for two years, or any legis
lation tht may be substituted for it
Speculators artd banks are the parties
most' anxious and most disturbed in
mind about the action of congress.
There are about 83,000,000 or 84,000,
000 gallons -of whisky stored. The
banks have advanced between $50,000,
000 and $60,000,000 on warehousing
certificates. About $20,000,000 of this
paper is held in Louisville, Cincinnati,
St Louis and Chicago, the remainder
is scattered in the .great eastern cities.
It is undoubtedly true that the banks
are seriously embarassed by the accum
ulation of these discounted certificates,
and they can get no relief from the
speculators who put them up as colla
teral security. The banks, therefore, are
practically the owners of the whisky,
and their situation is move critical be
cause they will be compelled for self
protection, to pay the tax on this stock
as it becomes due. The aggregate tax
will be about 074,000,000 or 75,000,
000, distributed over two -years and
ten months. -
It is thus seen that the banks which
have leaned much of their capital,
tempted by high rates of interest, on
whisky now in bond, are the actual sup
plicantsfor legislation, though they do
not so appear before congress. Some
ot them are in a bad predicament and
are unable to cany this heavy load.
They are timid about taking active
part, fearing that a disclosure pf then-
weakness might precipitate a disaster.
Frozen to Death. Last Monday
Jiuis Pecor and Peter Petee started
rom their place near Dillard's to at

through the fields, and before arriving
at their destination darkness overtook
them and they lost their way, and when
crossing a slough the ice gave way and
they both got wet a second time.
Shortly after this they got separated,
and Petee heard Pecor calling co him.
He found his way back to the old man
who was lying down, and tried to get
him up, but could not. He stayed
with him until morning, when he went

A correspondent of the Coos Bay News
publicly charges a deputy surveyor of the
public lands with crookedness of a character
which, if true, needs investigating, and
claims that Surveyor General Tol man's at
tention has been repeatedly called to the
misconduct of his subordinate. The corres
pondent states that there are available lands
or homestead and pre-emption settlement
in Coos and Curry counties; that the deputy
referred to has been twice sent ia to this lo
cality to extend the surveys; that instead of
doing the work it has been his habit to send
an emmissary to settlers to induce them to
pay him not to leave them out of the plat.

and welpresume that Surveyor General Tol-
man will not Jet a matter of so flagrant a
