THE GAZETTE.
HEPPNER, THURSDAY, Mar. 13, 1800-
ARE OREGON'S CONGRESSMEN
TOO GREEDY?
Were Oregon confined to a eioiH. ap
propriation for improvements by onr
national government, tbeliAZETTE would
advocate its application to purposes
which would open the Columbia river to
navigation at the earliest date. The
necessary improvements to overcome the
obstacles to navigation at The Dalles
should be encouraged by the people of
Oregon and Washington alike.
The demand made by the representa
tives of these states upon congress for
appropriations from the treasury are so
numerous, and urged ho persistently,
as to make representatives from other
states pause when they con
sider the large amount of money re
quired to satisfy their demands. Cities,
great and small, want fine publie build
ings, coast defenses, dredgiDg the bars
which interfere with navigation, and oth
er demands too numerous to mention,
bnt the whole will aggregate many mil
lions of dollars.
The Northwest, though believing all
their demands are necessary, ought not
to expect the government will assume so
much expenditure for one section of the
country, however much the necessity.
The national territory is large, its ex
posed coasts are extensive, and the nec
essary improvements of lakes, rivers and
bars are urgent, and the pressure upon
congress for appropriations, enormous
as they have been, is increasing yearly
as the growth of population demands.
The improvement made by the gov
ernment in the past has been a slow pro
cess of eoonoiny which was too often an
expensive extravagance, resulting in
waste and decay, caused by cessation of
work for the want of aofficient appropri
ations. Ho long as the demands are out
into innumerable projects, all claimed
by their advocates to be necessities,
many important wants will be neglected
and the appropriations for others muBt,
from the condition of the income of the
government, be insufficient for the unin
terrupted progress of the work.
If Oregon's representatives in congress
would concentrate the share which
would certainly be granted to their
tate, upon a selection of the improve
ments most urgent to the
interest of the whole people, tbey
would more likely succeed in accom
plishing results whioh would be more
satisfactory to their constituents than
the present omnibus system oan possibly
produce.
THE DIRECT TAX BILL.
The bill to refund the direct taxes
levied during the rebellion and paid by
the states to the government, has been
reported back to the senate by the ju
dioiary committee. The majority adopts
the views of the committee in its report
last session. The minority report adopts
the views given in ex-F resident Cleve
land's veto message.
.Exact justice seems to demand the re
funding to the states the taxes whiob
they have paid. A considerable number
have paid little or none of the tax due
from them.
If the delinquent states will show
their disposition to pay the several quo
tas due the government by their prompt
payment, the bill perhaps would not
pass. But if it is intended to permit the
states which have not paid their taxes
due the goveinment to retain and enjoy
the amount of their delinquency, exact
justice and equity demand that the
states whioh promptly responded by the
payment, should have the amounts so
paid refunded for the benefit of the peo
ple who paid them.
As the necessities of the government
ment which required the tax to be levied
do not now exist, and the money due
from the delinquent states ia not need
ed by the government, the bill ought to
pasB, that the money may be paid at
an early duy.
It would be simple equity wherein the
states which have paid would reoeive
wbut they have paid and the delinquent
i from naymut
of taxes justly due an.l wnrm Thnu
source of jealousy between the states
would be wiped out.
By the passage of the bill Oregon will
receive 8376,373.
THE CIVIL SERVICE, IT CAN BE
CORRUPTED.
The Gazette has heretofore given an
opinion that there is a vein of humbng
gery runuing through the so-called sys
tem of Civil Service Reform. To place
the power to select persons to fill the
official positions of the government into
the hands of a body of men called a com
mission, is not, by any means, an assur
ance of purity. Those commissioners
who are themselves, to a greater or less
extent, politicians, are but the ap
pointees of politicians who are ever alert
to advance the interests of their party.
Henoe, it is not impossible that it may
become a sonroe of corruption, such as
the oountry has not yet seen. The oivi'
service reform advocates have claimed
that it would purify the civil service of
the government of corruption from po
litical parties. But in doing so through
an appointed commission, are its advo
cates certain they have not transferred
the corruption from parties to a concen
trated commission who may be also poli
ticians? Systems of reform during the earlier
period of their establishment are, or
ought to be managed with a view to
present all the better advantages of the
new over the old system, and it is ex
pected that all the good poiuts of the
oivil service law would be made appar
ent by a commission appointed from the
friends of the system. Its friends and
enemies are watching the workings of
the law with the greatest scrutiny; the
former for its good poiuts the latter for
its deficienoy.
The examination which is now being
made by a congressional committed into
the workings of the service has brought
to light some of the corruptions whioh
have thus early entered the system.
Sufficient evidence has already been giv
en to show that frauds can be perpetrat
ed easily, through corrupt officials I of
the civil service bureau. The friends of
the system will find it a difficult matter
to oonvince the majority of the people
that their new system is quite as good
as the old. -

lican district convention, for prosecuting

Sc. Hamilton, is suggested as good timber
for joint-senator. He is republican in
politics.
W'm. Penland is spoken of in connec

NOTES FROM ABROAD.
Called From Kxcbaucra and Ticked op
Hre aud There.
The Salem Statesman reports that lit
tle injury was done the growing crops in
the Willamette valley by the late storm.
The Colfax Gazette reports the mor
tality among cattle, sheep and horses to
have been very great, some placing the
losses as high as 50 per cent.
Regarding the stock losses in Harney
county, J. (i. Chesebro says, in a letter
to a fnend:
"The storm was the most severe ever
experienced in that region We have
between 500 and 600 sheep alive ont of
dW; 45 bncksoutof 500; the bucks 1
feed grain ; I fed heavy on the start and
they eat their feed ravenously; the 65
tons of hay lasted 22 days. We worked
three days getting the sheep to ground
partly clear of snow; they did well for
two days but it cbinooked for a few
hours and then froze a heavy crust, and
the hardest wind I ever experienced blew
continually and simply chilled the sheep
to death. They would oover the snow
ith blood working through the heavy
crust. The juniper grove did not seem
to be any protection, but the wind went
everywhere alike. On the 1st it com
menced chinooking and how we have
plenty of grass. Brown Brothers have
less than 300 left out of 9600. Mcintosh
left his band on the 20th nit., numbering
some 3000, to their fate on the desert
east of here and went home. They are
mostly all dead. Then Jim Maokey lost
1500 out of 4000 and had hay left after
the storm broke. The Laughlin boys
were the luCKiest of us all, only losing
450 offt of 1500. Johnson & Street, Buck
creek's oattlemen, say they have not
found a live cow brute on the desert yet,
and don't expect to. The horses are
three-fourths dead. I tell you, this was
an equalizer."
Mr. W. Li. Campbell, of Mountain
creek, thinks the loss in his section will
aggregate thirty per cent.
Emil Scharff of the Hamilton country
reports the estimated loss of stock in
his section at twenty-five per cent.
Tex Sillman, who was over from Burns
this week, eays that the loss in Harney
county ia not near as large as haa been
reported. Mr. Sillman says John De
vine's cattle loss is not as great as it was
last winter because the snow in the lake
region went off early and cattle were
driven onto the desert. Times-Mountaineer.
E. F. Reed who is in the city from his
ranch in Alkali Canyon reports that his
loss will be 1000 head out of a band of
4000 sheep. Pendleton Tribune.
J. H. Bobbins received a letter from
bis father a few days ago, who is in Ritz
ville, in which he states that out of his
band of 3000 sheep only seventy-five re
main. Says he: "The winter has been
the most severe I have ever experienced,
cattle aud sheep are dying by the hun
dreds." E. O.
Authentic reports of sheep losses are
now reaching Pendleton. R. Rankin
has lost about 600 head out of his band
on the east fork of Birch Creek. Fred
Noble, whose sheep are at Pilot Rook,
has lost 200. Mr. Wm. Gibson, who is
in the city from his ranch on Stewart
creek, says the loss up there was not
great, as sheepmen were generally well
provided with bay. He lost some 300
head ont of his band of 3000. Mr. Cass
Matlock is down trom his ranch on up
per Birch creek. While his loss is se
vere, it was not so great aa expected, as
he was caught by the lost storm entirely
withont feed, and could procure none in
the neighborhood. He estimates the
number of bis dead sheep scattered over
the range at 1000. His bund numbered
3000 on entering the winter. His sons,
Ed and Dee, escaped with a slight loss.
E. O.
Chief Peo, of the Umatillas, says the
Indians have lost no ponies this Winter.
"Plenty grass, all time Chinook wind,"
senteutiously observed his ohiefship.
E. O.
The Fossil Journal states that over
25,000 sheep lay dead between the south
fork of the John Day and Parish oreek.
The Harvy band, owned by French &
McFarland of The Dalles, is a total loss,
and the ranchers of But te creek have lost
about 1 pov oeot. an Ottilia. -Iji Oll
liura Bounty tho Joss will oe severe, as
feed is beoomiug soarce, and nnlesa a
thaw sets in the loss will be terrible.
Mr. E. F. Redd is down from Wflnton
& Redd's sheep camp at the head of Al-
Kau canyon, tie estimates the firm's
loss a 1000 out of 4100. Several others
in the nieghborhood have suffered a like
severe loss. The cloud has a silver lin
ing, however, as range will be excellent
this year.
Mr. Ben Hagen visited the ranoh of
his father, Anion Hagen, in Adams m-e-
ciuot, yesterday, and found that the old
gentleman had lost but five head of
stock this season out of 130. E. O.
Reports from Vinson, in the Butter
creek neighborhood, say that Antone
vey nas lost only 300 ont of 8000 sheep.
I. Hathaway has suffered considerable
loss. Grass has appeared on the hills,
and feeding is no longer necessary.
E. O.
It is beginning to appear that the re
ports of losses of sheep were greatly ex
aggerated. Mr. J. L. Gulhford, who is
in the city, says he has lost but 3000 ont
of 12,000 head on Butter creek. It was
reported that he had lost 8000 head.
E. O.
Mr. E. Ingle, of Walla Walla, is in
town to-day. He says no losses of stock
have occurred in his locality, as all had
plenty of feed. E- O.
It is estimated that the losses in Crook
oounty will reach 50 per cent. The
Times-Mountaineer has information to
that effect . Of one band of 4000 on
Trout oreek, only 500 were living. On
the desert south of Prineville the loss
will be frightful. Willow creek will suf
fer heavily in horses and cattle. On the
Deschuttes, sheep have wintered all
right; the loss will be small. The total
loss in Wasco county will not be over 20
per cent.

K thought he amw prize-fighters' ring, and
In the middle of It stood a doughty little
