To-Morrow Decides It
Sm.km. Sept. 23d
Tm: interest centering in the
senatorial fight was intense this
mnminnr Riimnrs - tbnf llinro
, , D. . ,.,,... i
were on all sides since the adjourn
ment of the joint convention
yesterday -afternoon, and the regu
lar routine f legislative .session
this morning was hurried through
with as rapidly as possible. At
noon the two houses met, and on
the first ballot Mitchell showed an
increased strength of three votes,
a reinforcement coming from the
Democratic side of the house.
He got his regular HG, and with
them came J. M. Siglin, from
Coos and Curry; "Wm. Seifers, of
Josephine; and AY. H. Curtis, of
Baker. Prim got thirty; the
seventeen, who have been coquet
ting with IJoise, Williams, and
Failing, gave their votes to JTare;
Thayer got three, and Failing one.
Upon the announcement of the
result, a second ballot was called
for amid great excitement. At
the conclusion the result summar
ized thus: Mitchell 10 having
secured another Democrat, John
Long, of Lane; flare got (;
Prim ran away down to 29, Dolph
got ; Failing, 1-; Bush, 2; Shut
tuck, 1. The result was a source
of satisfaction to the Mitchell men
who confidently assert that ,he will
be elected to the T'nited States
senate next Monday, without fail.
From present appearances it seem
almost a ce rtainty that such result-will
ensue.
Siiort and Sanguinary.
Tun following neat little dis
patch is of interest, being in the
first place a model of good Eng
lish, telling the whole story with
out unnecessary verbiage, and in
the second place, illustrating "how
they do things" oji the pleasant
trails of Santa Fe:
DnxvER, Sept. 22. Particulars
of a twelve-sided duel between
cowboys has just leached hcie.
Geo. Iloward, owner of a herd of
3,000 cattle, and John Jveele-,
owner of a herd of -1,000, weie
driving in company from Arizona
east. North of Trinidad, on the
plains, the two herds were sepaia
ted, Ilowaid to follow the Santa
Fe trail to Kansas City, and Kee
ley to drive north to Denver. On
the route accidental exchanges hat!
been made, and Howard insisted
on having Ins stock out, but was
unwilling to deliver .Keeley's, and
it was finally agreed to settle mat
ters by a battle between six picked
men of each paity. Accordingly
twelve men ranged themselves on
horseback on two sides, fifty feet
apart, and at a. signal from an em
ployee the fight began. At the
first fire four -men were in
stantly killed: George "Wal
ter,. of Keeley's party, shot through
the breast, one of Howard's men
fell with a ball through the head,
and two others of the same party
shot through the heart. The dis
mayed Howard party with the ex
ception of the employer then fled
to camp. Keeley then rode up to
Howard and proposed they fight it
out, Howard declined, saj'ing ho
understood the matter was settled
according to the terms of battle
made beforehand. This settled
the matter and an equitable ex
change of the mixed cattle was
then made, the dead buried by the
other men of both herds, and the
drovers and those in charge separ
ated .for different routes.
Considerable suggestion is at
present being made in reference to
necessary legislative amendment
of the present assessment law. "We
have commented at length in pre
vious issues upon the necessity of
so changing tiie law, that indebt
edness would not hp,asal present,
allowed. There should be another
amendment, .that property hojders
need not be called upon several
-times each year to make out prop-
eitv list5 "or be taxed to p:iy j
three or four assessors and tax col-
lectors. Ono general assessment
should serve' for all purpose?, and
all taxes should be collected at one
and the same time, the assessment
1, , .,,.,,,
being made on the basis of a bal-
anee,.as it wore, to bo j-trnck on a
certain dav oi the vcar.
Tin: matter of electing a m:i-
i tor at Salem is degenerating ii.io
a triilinjr dillv-dallving vstom of
tactic-'. Tt would he a saving of
time for the eighteen wh hold out
to reeognixe the inevitable and
give in. Mitchell is bound to lie
elected, and it will be as easy to
vote for him on the sixth ballot as
the sixty-sixth.
