The lower bouse favored Templeton'a
bill to divide Linn county in accord
ance with the wiahea of the Browns
ville people, but the senate alwaya a
more conservative body, killed tbe bill.
This leaves old Linn all ber territory
and avoids the financial calamity that
would inevitably follow such a divi
sionto tbe good people ofBrownsyille.
We don't want to loose them. They
are good, law-abiding citizens. We
will forgive them for their attempt to
secede and will pardon tbe leaders
without the formality of an oath of
allegiance.
There is a sentiment now existing
to change the county seat to some more
central and convenient point. As Leb
anon is that point, we will just wait
and let the honor come to ua unaougbt,
