THE GOIIDOI! GLOBE. FRIDAY, MARCH 1, 1895. THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF GILLIAM COUNTY. OREGON. OUR NEW SENATOR. Hon. George W. McBride, who elected United States senator on the twenty-third ballot Satur day night, is too well known to the people of Oregon to need an ex tended introduction. He has been a member of the legislature, speak er of the house, and was twice sec rotary of state. Mr. McBride is the youngest eon of Dr. James Mc Bride, and was born in Yamhill county in March, 1854. The earli er years of his school life were passed at Lafayette, in Yamhill couuty, and St. Helens, in Colum bia county, where' he now lives. Later he spent one year in the Willamette university at Salem, and two vears in Christian college, if.mmnnth under the tuition of President T. F. Campbell, quitting the latter institution a year before graduation on account of poor health, which a year of rest from severe study did not wholly restore. However, he entered the law office of Hon. J. C. Moreland, Portland, as a student, remaining three vears, but ill health again prostrated him. Eor two years he was an invalid, and upon his recovery engaged in active business, abandoning for the while his purpose of practicing law, for which he was thoroughly dis ci nlinftd and aualified. Mr. Mc Bride has. with the exception of two years spent in San Francisco, alwayB lived in Oregon. Personally the new senator is fellow to meet." He is cordial, but not boisterous, dignifi Afl hut never stiff. He is always wall mannered and well dressed. nnrl thniiErh havine a decided ten dencv toward student life, is fond of society and shines in it. Some may be interested, perhaps, in the fact that he knows the points of a Ws and is a dead shot. Mr. Mc- Uride is not and never will be ro : bust, but he has outlived his ill health and is a prodigious worker. He is of medium height, complex ion neither decidedly dark nor fair, ba hliie-Erav eves, weighs about 140 Dounds. and wears a full, crop ped brown beard. He only lacks the appearance of perfect vigor to hfi strikinerlv handsome. He is in everv resDect a man, cultured nnahlfl honest and Qualified. He comes of a distinguished family His father. Dr. McBride, was Lm coin's minister to the Sandwich Islauds in the early '60s. His hrnt.her. John K. McBride. was the first republican congressman from the state of Oregon, and now engaged in the practice of law at Spokane. Another, 1 hos. A. mc Bride, is iudgeof the fifth judicia district of this state; and another is a leading physician of isconsm His mother's brother, W. Adams was collector of the port, and held other important positions. Senator McBride will take his seat in the Senate at Washington March 4th. at which time Mr Dolph's term expires. STAY" WITH THE QUESTION. - Coupon, Feb. 25th. Editor Globe : If you will allow me space to say a few words I would like to call attention to the weak argument of fered hv the Journal in behalf of those interested in having our county court appoint a deputy clerk. It seems to me that the very few who think a deputy clerk is needed are evad ing the question under discussion en tirely. As I understand it, the question is, "is there sufficient county work in the clerk's office to justify the county in hiring a deputy?" The taxpayers are not interested in "how much" work is done in the clerk's office but how much county work ia done; and I believe all of the taxpayers in the county are of the opinion that the 1500 a year salary paid the clerk is quite enough for the amount of county work done by that officer during such times as the present. If a county clerk wishes to run a num ber of different kinds of businesses on the side, in addition to his duties as county clerk, why ought the taxpayers be forced to pay for a deputy to do the private work of the officer? I believe myself that there is consider able work done in the clerk's office, but I also believe that it is the private busi ness such as land business, notary dub- ness. law business, municipal office bus inessand what not that takes up a ereat deal of the time of the clerk and aeputy. The county is paying the $1500 year salary tor toe county wore oniy, and I feel certain that one competent man can do all the county business and not work very hard either. If a clerk is not satisfied with tne salary tor doing the clerk's duties alone and wants to run the other businesses on the side, is it not his duty to pay for what help he needs, out of his own pocket f XI not, why not drop the outside businesses ana then there would be plenty of time to attend to the county's work, without putting the taxpayers to the unnecessary expense of a deputy. surely tms county is not in sue a a prosperous condition tnat it can anoru to appoint deputies to do the private work of its officers or for any one else. Our taxpavers are already groaning under the enormous burden of taxation, and to further burden them with such unnecessary expense, is little short of an outrage. I think tnat it tne court appoints a deputy in tuis case, every man in anv Kind oi business in idis county has equally as good a right to ask the county to pay their farm hands, clerks and book-keepers. I have spoken to a number of men recently, whose business takes them all over the county, and they say that the unanimous opin ion everywhere is tnat tne county court has no right and should not appoint a deDUtv clerk. Half of the other small counties in tne state nave noi appointed deDUties. and whv should Gilliam ? Even admitting tnat a aeputy is neea- ed a month each time circuit court meets, there are scores of people in this county who would be glad to do the work which is nothing but copy and amanuensis work at $30 or $36 a month. Think of the many competent school teachers working for $36 a month, any of whom could do such copy work as well as it has ever been done, and would be glad to get the job at f3o a month. Why should any man be paid a salarv amounting to three times more than'be has ability to make in any kind of private business? In order to try to bulldoze the county court into making it appear that there is too much work for one man to do, 1 have very eood reason to believe that the county's work is allowed to accumu late, more or less, until county court weeks, so as to make it appear to the court that less than two men could not do the work. I hope I am mistaken in this, but think I am not. I am not alone in this belief, either. As my friend Lincoln said: "Yon can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but yoo can not fool all of the people all of the time." G. Whilukins.

We are continually saying that we don't want people to come here without money, and yet many of our best citizens did that very thing, and why not others?

We are in favor of everybody coming who wishes to. ruonev or no money, if they have the push to earn money. This country needs rustlers in every line. Albany Democrat. , Oregon may expect another ust such a deadlock, as the one just : broken, in the legislature two years hence, when Senator Mitchell comes up for re-election. The Prinevi lie Review doesn't want a railroad in that country. No wonder. Prineville would be 20 miles from the road and another town would be built up that would be the metropolis of the country.

Counts are apparently going up. It's enough to make the late lamented Jay turn over in his coffin. Senator Mitchell of Oregon has introduced a bill for an amendment to the constitution providing for the election of senators by a direct vote of the neoole. The bill has been defeated. Senatar Dolph seems to bear up very well under hia late defeat. He is about town much as usual, and he always talks and acts as if nothing unusual bad happened. He was set-n yesterday, and asked if he were going back to Washing inirton. He said: "No. 1 am not There is no business to call me there. I am a citizen of Oregon, and am going to remain in the state and practice law. Oregonian.
