VKKAii.i.KH,jMn.l7. After a most
excitiiiir contest toduy M. I'clix
Fauro was elected president of the
French republic. The final vote
stood M. Fa u re 413, M. lifion 3G1.
The socialistic t lement manifested
congidurable strength in the npsem
hly. The new president is a mod
erate republican and lms filled
many ofllcial positions. He was
born in Paris, Jan. 30, 1841. He
took part in the Franco-Prussian,
and assisted in putting down the
Puris commune, lie is cons'ufercd
a man of much sterner mould
than Casimir Pcrier, and is 8ud to
possess many of the characteristics
of the late M. Carnot. ,

bill to meet the treasury deficiency
The Sherman biil provides for
tho issue nndsale of bonus under

net from time to time as tho deft
ciencies of tho treasury require, the

cent interest. 'The second section
provides that in lieu of the fore
going bonds the secretary of the
treasury may iesuo coin certificates
in denominations of $5 to $100,
bearing 3 per cent interest. The
third section deals with the deposit
of bonds in tuitional banks. The
r
Pugh bill provides for the immed
iate issue of :f 100,000,000 treasury
notes to meet the deficiency, thee
to be redeemable in gold aoin and to
bo constantly reissued. It further
directs the coinage of tho seignior
age and the deposit of silver bul
lion from American mints.
Ho Mada Too Many Promisee
Si'RAtU E," Wash , Jan. 17. Pop
ulist Sheriff Williams was inaugu
rated Monday, hut was so besieged

J. B. Gray, the outgoing republic
an county clerk, whereby Gray

sign. Gray resigned all claim to
the oiliee at once. The county
commissioners appointed Samuel

Firtt Week cf the Legislature,
Salem, Or., Jan. 18. All things
considered, tho legislature has made
a pretty good showing for its first
week's work. There is unmistak
able evidence that both houses
have a distinctly business tone in
their makeup, which will result in
a good deal of practical conserva'
tive legislation. The senate, of
course, makes the best showing. It
has the advantage of smaller num
bers, an experienced presiding of
ficer, 15 hold over senators, two
who have been in it at other ses
sions, two members of the last
house, and some others who have
sat in other deliberative bodies.
The house is mostly ono of new
members. Only four of its mem
bers were in the last session and
many ore utter strangers to parlia
mentary usage. There is plenty of
discordance, waiting for the vicissi
tudes of roll-call and committee
reports to develop into hostility
and wranglings.
l4wt Tribute Paid.
Salem, Or., Jan. 18 The funeral
of Ex-Governor Chadwick today
was oneof the most remarkable held
in Salem in many years. The
funeral ceremonies were under the
auspices of the Masonic fraternity,
of which order Mr. Chadwick was
a distinguished member. A large
concourse of people attended the
buri tl services. Exactly at 4 o'clock
P. M , the mortal remains of Ste
phen F. Chadwick were consigned
to a grave lined with evergreens,
and his casket was strewn with the
choicest flowers. The obsequies
throughout were inspiring in their
grandeur and earnestness.
Earned to Death wnje in a Fit
Oreoon City, Jan. 18. News
reached here today of a shocking
accident whereby Mr. Scheurer. a
German farmer residing near New
Era Btation, lost his life Tuesday.
Mr. Scheurer and his sons were
slashing and burning timber. At
noon they started for the house for
dinner, but after going a short dis
tance the father remembered that
he had left his coat behind and
returned for the garment. The
boys continued on their way to the
house. The father did not appear
for dinner, and knowing him to be
subject to fits, a hurried search
waa made for him, when hia body
was found lying near one of the
fires, his clothing having been
wholly consumed and the flesh
horribly burned. It is supposed
that ho was seized with a fit, foil
into tho fire and .was burned to
death.

Secretary Carlisle's Opinion.
Washington, Jan. 21. Secretary
Carlisle was present by request at
an important meeting today of the
house appropriations committee.
In reply to the question what ob
jection there would be to a system
of redeemiug notes in gold and sil
ver, at the option of the secretary
of the treasury instead of the hold
er, the secretary answered, "If
that policy had been inaugurated
at the beginning of resumption, it
would have worked beneficially
and no trouble would have amen
from it, but my predecessors have
followed the policy of redeeming in
gold or silver, at the option of the
holder of paper, and any secretary
who tried to change this policy and
work silver on a man who wanted
gold, or vice versa, especially at
such a critical period as we have
been passing through, would hava
precipitated disasterous results."
