HaIiLOBAX, EDITOH DilliT Asteiuan: Not being able to secure space ia the Pacific Journal before this present -week and many of the matters referred to in the article to which my name is attached, I send it to yon with the request that you pub lish it in your issue of Saturday, No vember 1st C. A. Reed. OfSTKitvibtiE, Oct. l2l), iaSL Editor I'awjii: Jeurnal: Sir: lu vour paper of tbo 4th inst., I noticed an article written by L. H. llhoades aud signed 'Centre," which ailicle I had not intended to notice, and would have not so done except for the reason that it has been fol lowed by others equally untruthful and unjustifiable. He starts by mis representing the amount of taxes for tue year ioi, overwmcu me commis sioners will have control. He says the amount is 89,803.35; the county tax for 18S1, all told, amounts only to So,19u.39. All other taxes are dis posed of by law. As to the remarks which he says Judge Hoyt made last August iu reference to the county commissioners being blameable for expensive litigation, Prosecuting At torney McFadden says Judge Hoyt mado no such remarks. As to '"pets, Mr. "Centre, don't you remember the last time yon sat as a member or the county board of equalization, when the bill of this samo "pet" whom you now decry, was presented for pay ment You said in open court that you gave your sanction to payment of the bill with greater satisfaction than to any other which had boen passed upon during that session, and that the service had been thoroughly performed. "Centre" was in office at that time not by election, but by appointment! Ho was defeated at the polls two years ago for the same position, not on the Republican ticket either. Again "Centre' says that this year, 1SS1, the county commissioners did not sit as a board of equalization, but took the "pet deputy sheriffs" assessment and called it equalized without any change or action what ever." The records proYo this state ment to bo a falsehood without justi fication. Again, he says that tho prosecuting attorney admits that tho commissioners are tho parties in er ror, and should refund the money, (alluding to sheriff's per diem). I called Mr. McFadden's attention to this matter, and ho said emphat ically that if Mr. Centro mado that statement ho was a liai and that no such conversation ever occurred, or any such admission was ever made to him, outside of the jury rooms or elsewhere. Tho facts show that Mr. Centre made charges against the shf:fFV"Pei2) for which hot as a grand 3uror,L,'or'as a citizen, could neither find evidence nor law to sus tain, and in bis blind rage and mor tification at his failure ho assails tho sheriff, grand jury, judge and prose cuting attorney. Now Mr. Editor and citizens of Pa cific county, this man "Centro" is a fair type ot the rank and file of what they call tho "Union party." They began by misrepresentation and they havo uot been content with occupy ing the space of the Journal, but seek notoriety by publishing in pa pers outside of tho county the true character of this so.called Union par ty. The Astoria, under date of Oct 17th '84, contained an article headed "Politics in Pacific County," and signed by John Wood as "Itesi dent" On careful perusal of this ar ticle, I have come to the conclusion that it is the joint production of Ben der, dude would-be auditor, and mis information furnished by an official treasury crank. This triplo nonde script then received tho fatherly sig nature of John "Wood, thereby render ing it a long-eared quadrujted, on paper. The entire portion of this article, so far as I am concerned, is not worth the ink with which to notice it, until that point is reached where the ex pressions are used in regard to the "pet deputy," or deputies, and tho great expense to the county. Now, Mr. Bender, don't you remember when you were a pet deputy sheriff and assessor? Don't you remember how near it came to being very ex pensive to tho taxpayers of Pacific county when you went overboard with several hundred dollars of the people's money in your pocket? Don't you remember that this same John Brown, captain of the steamer, fished yon out, and saved tho coin? and don't you remember that you had several good times in getting dry ? As for Dude "Would-be-Auditor, he gets dry often; being only a boy, and these attacks being appar ently spasmodic, retirement from the public gaze will perhaps effect a rad ical change. Yes, then he will be dble to toot reform in a horn. Bender Dude and John "Wood havo forgotten to tell the dear people, for whom they manifest sucli great so licitude, that the office of sheriff in this county does not pay, and that a man with a family in that office, with out some other source of revenue, would starve out in less than six months. So far as tho barnacle busi ness is concerned, if you at any time feel like so doing, come down and I will assist you in the scrajte. Without any occasion for so doing, and without premeditation, a littlo conversation did recently occur in the town of Oysterville, between one of Dude's warmest supporters for office, who said that Eddie's father did not want him to run for office, that Eddie did not want tho office himself, and did not want to run. Question Then if Eddie's father doesnot want him to have tho office, and if Eddio does not want the office, then who the d 1 does want him to have the office? Eche: John Wood. In conclusion, voters of Pacific county nothing heretofore published (in my belief) by this rampant so called Union party deserves mention as being any part of the politics of this county. On invitation by the editor of the Journal they" have swarmed into 'public print to such an extent thatl have not been able for tho last two weeks to get the smallest article in even edgewise which does not look to me very much like Loomis" Journal or a subsidized pa per, but I am getting tired of being crowded out by partisans from Vic other side. I mean correspondents in the interest of this miscellaneous conglomeration called the Union party- Mr. Editor, only one thing more this lime and I have done. I notice in the same article in Tiie DAibY Astorian of the 17th inst, that very great solicitude is expressed as to what I will do when I am no longer the pet deputy and have to go to work for a living. I say to this that you need have no fears on that score I have already done in this territory more honest hard labor than all four of you put together. But I will seriously think of the concern which Johnnie seems to have expressed in my behalf and (thanking him for the hint) say that in that case, I think I will oither buy a little saw mill for myself or get John Wood to steal one for me if I can and then I will locate either on the public domain, or, on rail ,road land, or, as a last resort, on school lands and then of course I shall be come eminently respectablo and cease to be a pet. Alle same as Johnny Wood. Yours respectfully, C. A. Heed. How Postage StnmpsHrArc Made. In printing, steel places aro used on which two hundred stamps are on graved. Two men aro kept hard at work covering them with colored inks and passing them to a man and girl who are equally busy printing them with large rolling hand presses. Three of these little squads are employed all the time. After the small sheets of paper upou which the two hundred stamps are engraved have been dried enough, they are sent into another room and gummed. Tho gum used for this purpose is a peculiar compo sition, made of the powder of dried potatoes and other vegetables, mixed with water. After having been agaiu dried, this time on the little racks, which aro fanned by steam power, for about an hour, they are put in be tween sheets of pasteboard and 4ressftd in hydraulic presses capable ot applying a weignc oi ,uuu tons. The next thing is to cut tho sheets in half; each sheet, of course, when cut contains a hundred stamps. This is done by a girl, with a large pair of shears, cutting by hand being pre ferred to that of machinery, which method would destroy too many stamps, t They are then passed to two other squads, who perforate tho paper between the stamps. Next, they aro pressed once more, and then packed and labeled, and stowed away for dis patching to fulfill orders. If a sin gle.gjamp is torn owofersfiway muti lated, the wholo sheet of 100 stamps is burned. Five hundred thousand are burned every week from this cause. For tho past twenty years not a single sheet has been lost, such care has been taken in counting them. During the process of manufacturing the sheets are counted eleven times. Women's Rishts in Finlanil. Since postal savings banks wero opened in Sweden and Norway last autumn, tho demand for similar insti tutions has been growing more ur gent in Finlaud, and after due inqui ries and careful consideration the Finnish senate has decided to estab lish postal savings banks after tho English system in all parts of tho Grand Duchy. There is no doubt that to tho poor Finn, who earns a scant living by hard manual labor, it will be a great boon to put by a small sum in a place where it is perfectly safe, but oven more than tho men, tho women have cause to rejoice at the decision of the senate, for the law establishing the banks indi rectly establishes one of tho most urgently needed of women's rights. According to the law of Finland, no woman has hitherto been allowed to acquire any property without tho au thorization of her husband. This law will in the present case be annul led, and a woman will be at liberty to make use of the postal savings banks without tho permission of her lord and master. Considering that it often depends more on tho manager of the household affairs than the actual "bread winner" to economize and save, the wisdom of tho arrange ment is obvious. A Sense of Uoieness. "Gouenes3" is hard to define scien tificilly, yet you know what it is vhen it overcomes you. It is a compound of lassitude, debility and "the misera blps;'' flavored with a seasoning of "the blues.'' Now you know. To get rid of "goneness," take Brown's Iron Bitters, aud be-well and strong. Mr. J. M. Gentry, Hannibal Mo., says, "I took Brown's Iron Bitters for pain in the back, loss of appetite, kidney d.s ease, with good'results." "Yes," he said, "I attended a bull fight in Mexico once and I thorough ly enjoyed it" "I cannot understand how one can enjoy a brutal affair of thaf kind," was the reply. "Nothing brutal about tho fight I refer to." "Don't you consider it brutal for a lot of Mexicans to wantonly kill a bull?" "Yes, but in this case a bull killed a lot of Mexicans."
