A. nlCIUnA14l. uiiw". wASiiixarav letter. 0RIN L. PATTERSON, Office, Gazette I5uildiri, Heppner. Oregon. (From our regular correspondent.) Washuoton, May 1, '89. The average Government clerk does not strain either his physical or mental powers in the service of his country. He is rather prone to being absent, sick as often as he dars, and to day-dreaming vhea he is present Of course there is .a respectable minority who work hard, but as like as not you will find on further observation that then? are often men whos educa tion and ability are not sufficient to enable them to do even a decent amount of work without great ef fort. Thesa tatements are true of both sexes, and of all offices where extensive tschnical knowl edge is not demanded. But ther is one employe 10 each department who has to work early and late, to take his worn and worry homo with him, and bs waylaid by all sorts of people at all sorts of times, on matters of shop. This employe is known to cials. 1 believe that subtautially nil his walking hours nee given to; the n'Tiiirs of his office, which you will MinenixWr includes tlio great est number of widely different bureaus of any of the executive departments. Think of the Secre tary having charge of patents, pensions, parks, labor, education, Indiana and lands, and a dozen other things, all in a jthnble. Secretary Blaiue performs his labor with more ease than any other member of the Cabinet. His faculty for doing vast amount of work without the appenrance of strain is due no less To his magnifiicent ability than to his long training. Mr. Blaine's mind is an instantaneous camera and a single flash fixes the details of any allair upon his nana, bo tar as quickness is concerned, he is the modal secretary. Whether it be an obscure consulship or an im portant treaty his mind acts with lightening rapidity. Mr. lilaine does not usually arrive at his office before 11 o'clock, but he always brings with a budget of papers that has recivod his attention the night before at his apartments in the normandie. The burly figure of Secretary Windom enters the Treasury De partment at 9 o'clock in the morn ing and the grind begins. He remains all day, until 5 o'clock in the afternoou, in his offico, listen ing to the endless procession of visitors with their bewildering variety of requests and complaints. And in these days Mr. Windom finds uet d for all the arts he learn ed while iu the Senate aud while formlly Secretary of the Treasury. His smile never deserts him. Even the Secretary's private' office is continually crowded, and he has to take important visitors to one side, and in the little nook where the windows overlook the river and the far Virginia hills, a great many annoying problems have been solved, Attorney General Miller is at his desk from 8 o'clock in. the morning to 6 o'clock in the after noon, and he goes back to ths Department at 7:30 to remain until 10 o'clock, attending to the busi ness that has been virtually set tled in the interviews of the day. He has not contracted the habit of taking work home with him. Secretary Proctor is rather out of the office-seekers beat, and his Department is less closely associ ated with the business interests of the country. Therefore his life is not.. 'in unpleasant one and the silence of many of his hours is only broken by the click of the type-writer and the sound of his own voice dictating to his stenographer. He is a very nervous man and dictates badly from a natural inclination to do his writing himself. In fact it may be said of the majority of public men that half of their slip-shod sentences are the result of dicta tion; an art very hard to ncquire and nver acquired by one iu ten of the men who attempt it. The same comparative safety from visitors is Secretary Tracy's privilege, but Secretary Rusk's callers are numerous, aud the name of PoHtmastor General Wannamaker's is legion. He sel dom leaves his office before (J I'.

A aoroner's inquest was held, ooiumenoing this afternoon and is still in session at 10 o'olook, with some wit nesses to be examined yet. The testimony shows that Hawkins did all the shooting and' that Ogle had no other weapon only a pocket knife. The testimony of MoNary, who was with Ogle when shot, says Ogle reached into his oout pooket at the time Hawkins oame up, uud accused him of lying. The next thing McNary knew Hawkins fired.
