WEED THEM OUT.
TKe fight over the senatorship has
withdrawn attention from other very
important matters that will come be
. fore the legislature at the coming ses
sion. There is an urgent demand for
economy in the management of the state
affairs, and to this end the demand is
almost nnanimous for the abolishing of
a lot or useless and worse than useless
commissions. Heading the list, as be
ing the most useless of all. is the rail
road commission. While the gentle
men who compose it are perhaps as
good as any that could be selected,
there is no reason why they,- or any
others, should be saddled as guests onto
the railroad companies at a cost to the
state of $12,000 a year.
The fish commissioner is another of
those useless and powerless offices that
should be abolished. The sheriff?, con
stables and citizens should, and cer
tainly could do much better service, and
indeed would do more to enforce the
fish and game laws than the fish com
missioner can were it not for the fact
that ti.e knowledge that the state has
this commissioner to look after that
business prevents the citizen from mak
ing it his business.
The superintendent of public instruc
tion is another office that never accom
plished -any good except to the Hon. E.
E. McElroy, and is of no more practical
use to the state than an extra pair of
leg 8 to a chicken.
The state board of equalization is an
other political wart that doesn't equalize
anything except its salary, though prop
erly conducted it would, perhaps, prove
beneficial. If continued, however, it
should be composed of the governor
and other state 'officers, who would save
the expense of the office, for the work
instead of taking months as it does now
when salaries lead to prolonging the
job. Those officers, who had nothing to
gam by nursing the job, would get
through with it in less than a month
Another point that is going to be
watched closely is the expense the leg
islature creates for itself in the shape of
' clerk hire, and legislators will hear from
their constituents should the former
shameless practices be followed.
This legislature ones it to its party, as
well as the state, to show how well and
how economically the state can be gov
erned with all its branches in the hands
of the republican party. The interests
of the state demand honest government,
rigid economy, and the interests of the
party demand that this legislature does
not provide its enemies a club for its
destruction.
of the state in a condition requiring out-1
siae assistance to prevent a lammo, uuo
would think the state had been afflicted
enough. But the election of a railroad
attorney to .the United States senate
from that state is the most damnable
blow that was ever dealt a country by
the treacherous bands of its own citi
zens. '
GOVERNOR PENNOYER.
HAS NO PARALLEL.
It may be safely said that the case of
the state against Hall in North Carolina,
in an opinion of the supreme court just
filed, has had no parallel. Deputy
Sheriff Hall, standing just on this side
of the line, fired and killed Andrew Bob
inson, a prisoner who was escaping into
Tennessee. Hall was tried and convicted
of murder in North Carolina. On his
appeal it was reversed that "in contem
plation of the law Hall was in Tenn
essee when the killing was done." He
was arrested and held as a fugitive from
justice. " The governor of Tennessee sent
for Hall on requisition. Hall applied
for a discharge, but Judge Below refused
to discharge him. He then applied to
the supreme court, and the court by a
majority of one, decided he must be dis
charged, because not having been in.
Tennessee at the time of the killing he
cannot be a fugitive from justice. Judge
McRaw joins in the dissent on the
ground that if, ''in contemplation of the
law Hall was in Tennessee at the time
of the killing," so that he cannot be
tried in the courts of North Carolina, in
the same contemplation of the law, he
must be a fugitive from justice, for he
cannot now be found in Tennessee but
in North Carolina.
A PRECOCIOUS DEMOCRAT.
An intelligent news-gatherer for the
Associated Press telegraphs the astound
ing announcement that the Jacksonian
Club of Omaha, the leading democratic
organization of the state, celebrated the
82d anniversary of the birth of its pa
tron saint, General Jackson, yesterday.
We always knew the democracy were
behind the times, but did not think
they were back more than twenty or
thirty years. At any rate no one can
accuse the old general and democratic
president of being slow if, as the dis
patch indicates, be fought the battle of
New Orleans the day he was born.
In a few days Sylvester Pennoyer, who
has filled the governor's chair of this
state for eight years, will turn over tfie
office to his successor, Judge Lord,
There is, perhaps, no man who ever held
the office that has had as much abuse,
as many flings made at him as Governor
Pennoyer, and certainly ' none who de
served them less. We may differ from
him in political opinions, we may smile
at some of his vagaries, and we may re
gret some of his opinions concerning the
courtesy due to those in high national
authority; but when we pass the acts of
the man in review for the past eight
years, we may find much to awaken oar
admiration, and much more that we
may approve. ,
Pennover's administration has been a
clean one, and he goes out of office with
the respect of the people, regardless of
politics. Some will find fault with bis
exercise of the pardoning power, but an
examination into that matter will dis
close the fact that ia nearly every case
the application for a pardon was signed
by the judge, -prosecuting attorney or
jurors who tried the case. His action at
Corvallis when the Oregon Pacific was
clamoring for troops endeared him to
the hearts of the laboring classes, and
his famous epigram, "Pay your men
and you won't need any troops," will be
remembered long after all of us have
passed away.
The newspapers, for lack of something
else to vent their sarcasm on, have en
couraged each other in trying to be
witty at the governor's expense; but
now that he is to step down and out,
the people will recognize the fact that
thej have lost an honest official, and a
friend.
Text-Book Question Settled.
WHO KNOWS,
"Man never is but always wants to
be." and this trueism is made perfectly
plain and apt in the present wild scram
ble to get the country on a silver basis
It may be possible the country will be
better, that times will be better if the
change is made, but we do not believe
such will be the case. We do not pre'
tend to be a prophet, or to be able to
peer into the future and tell what effect
the change of a monetary system by a
nation of seventy millions of people will
have on the world. We know that to
day under our present system, every
dollar of the country's money, whether
gold or silver, oi paper, js worth one
dollar. We know that in countries
where the silver is coined as it is pro
posed to be coined here, the dollars are
not of equal value, but that the silver
dollar is worth only its bullion value,
and not a cent more. We believe,
therefore, that the cause that has pro
duced such effects in other countries,
will produce the same effect here.
What we have in the shape of a finan
cial policy may not be perfect, but at
least we know That it is.
Our silver friends are much in the
condition of those wounded Japaneses
on the warships, after a recent naval
battle, whom the physicians found hope
lessly wounded. The poor fellows raised
their heads and opened their mouths,
with implicit faith in the skill of the
phyeicians, only to receive a drop of
hydro-cyanic acid and death.
The old methods of sending undesira
ble persons out for some other locality to
cope with seems to be in vogue yet in
some quarters. A Sacramento vigilance
committee has been practicing such tac
tics upon the tramp fraternity in that
city. Perhaps other localities can better
handle that class of individuals, but the
general verdict will be that each locality
has about as much of the tramp as they
can well manage without having any
more shoved upon them, and that the
really proper couree would be for as
earnest an effort as possible to be made
to mitigate the tramp nuisance by efforts
to change the tramps into, if necessarily
enforced, resident workers of some kind.
Albaftty Herald.
The Oregonian yesterday makes the
assertion that the Hon. Jonathan Bourne
is the head and front of the silver move
ment in this state, and we believe is per
fectly correct in its assertion. In speak
ing of Mr. Bourne's abilities as a politi
cian and manager it further says that
Bourne supplies the phrases and argu
ments used by his puppets, furnishing
the "sesquipedalian words of hazv
meaning." The word sesquipedalian is
of particularly happy choice in the con
nection, since it denotes the giving to
words, as Mr. Bourne would to silver, a
measure much larger than belongs to
them. .
The fight against Budd and the at
tempt to seat Estee as governor of Cali-
fornor have been abandoned, and governor-elect
Budd was sworn in today.
It was a foolish contest in the first place,
for the reason of Estee's unpopularity
was the fact that he was supposed to be
tooJriendly to the Southern Pacific rail
road. That was what made Mr. Estee
drag, along far in the rear of his ticket.
There were lots of republicans who felt
that a democratic governor was ' a
smaller evil than having the railroad
managers in charge of the Btate.
The Portland exposition is no more.
After trying Hardt to succeed, and
changing the management a month ago
without avail, the directors of the asso
ciation grew disheartened when the ele
ment turned against them and com
pletely blocked all travel. The storm
knocked it out, cooling even the fiery
and hitherto unquenchable ardor of the
energetic Van B. DeLasbmutt.

WASHINOTON5LETTER.
Kiom our regular correspondent. '
Washington, Jan. 3, 1894
General confusion, general distrust
and general disaster are now contending
lor the control of the democratic major
ity in congress and of the administra-
tion.. Inetead oi returning from their
holiday in a more united condition the
democrats are, if such a thing be possi
ble, wider apart on the financial ques
tion than' they were when the recess ad
journment was taken. Debate was re
sumed in the house on the currency bill
without any idea of what is to be the
outcome. The men who onght t'o be the
leaders of the democrats .are in doubt
not only as to what they ought to do,
but also as to what following they will
have should they decide upon what to
attempt. Some are advising the hold,
ing or a caucus and others are eaying
that a caucus will only aggravate the
existing division. Mr. Cleveland has
intimated quite Etrongly that he has a
mind to send a special message to con
gress, pleading for some patriotic, non
partisan financial legislation, and his
cabinet is understood to be divided as
to the advisability .of such a course on
his part. ' . ,
The situation has not been improved
by the apparently well-grounded rumor
that Mr. J. Pierpont .Morgan, a New
York banker, had called upon Mr.
Cleveland, as the representative of tbe
syndicate of bankers which floated the
last bond issue, and formally requested
that Secretary Carlisle be dismissed
from the head of the treasury depart
ment, on the ground that he had .failed
to keep faith with tbe bankers and that
he lacks the capacity to successfully
handle the financial affairs of the conn
try. Of course no one expects this to re
sult in the removal of Secretary Car
lisle, but it has added another complica
tion to a situation .that was already
entirely too much complicated.
"R. E. French and Eva Earl French
with their excellent company opened a
week's engagement at Cordray's theatre
last evening to an army of their friends
that filled the house up and down stairs.
The opening play was the romantic five-
act drama of "The Golden Giant,'
written Dy Ulay .01. lireene. The en
trance of both Mr. and Mrs. French
were signals for a storm of applause
that -left no doubt in the minds of I
all present that . the stars of the
svening continued great favorites.- Mrs.
French was at home in the character of
Bessie Fairflax and did some excellent
comedy work that was well appreciated.
Mr. French made a typical Jack Mason,
in the strong dramatic passages eliciting
a number of hearty rounds of applause
as well as several curtain calls. Mr.
frenennas a well balanced company
ana trie perrormance last evening was
smooth and even, without a hitch from
first to last. Frank Lavarnie bad the
heroic part of Alexander Fairflax, tbe
Golden Giant, and gave a strong, manly
representation of the Western hero.
Miss Jessie La Seur was very effective
in the character of Ethel Wayne, arous-
leg the sympathies of the audience in
tbe many - emotional passages of the
play." Reserved seats for sale at Blake-
ey & Houghton's.
The Next Oregon Assembly.
Republicans in. congress had no huid
in making the present financial muddle
and they do not consider it their duty
to take any part in clearing up -matters.
They are at present merely interested
onlookers, waiting to see whether the
democrats will be able to produce any
thing tangible out of the chaos now pre
vailing. At present although the Car
lisle currency bill is nominally before
the house for general debate there is no
certainty that it may not without an
hour's notice be succeeded by another
bill of an entirely different nature.
When the democrats have shown what
sort of a bill they really intend to try to
pass, if they ever . do, the republicans
will be ready to meet it with a definite
declaration, something that it is at
present useless to make. Among the
changes proposed to be made in the
Carlisle currency bill is one for the is
sue of $500,000,000 in 2 cent bonds, to
be used for the retirement of the green
backs and treasury notes. It is stated
Mr. Cleveland has endorsed the idea,
but be has not done so publicly.
To School Boards.
Summary of steps necessary to vote a
special tax in school districts under law
of 1893:
1. Directors should cal a special
meeting, giving ten days notice, to be
held as late in January as possible (say
26 to 28) and get result to county clerk
by Feb. 1st.
2. Make application to the county
clerk for amount of assessable property
in your district, not earlier than January
1st, but early enough to insure his reply
by the date of your meeting.
3. The clerk cannot give yon the
assessment before the latter part of Jan
uary, and you cannot vote until you get i t.
4. When the vote is made the result
must be forwarded in writing to county
clerk by Feb. 1st. (School laws 1893.
pp. 62-64).
As the time is limited, promptness in
all your proceedings is absolutely nec
essary. Troy Shelley,
. School Supt.
Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, thinks it
very doubtful whether the Carlisle cur
rency bill can be forced through the
house and eays of its chance in tbe sen
ate: "I do not see how it could get
through the senate. The plans which
have been presented so far are most un
satisfactory and will require a thorough
discussion of the best method of remedy
ing existing conditions before any bill
can be formulated that will . be satisfac
tory, and there isn't time for that."
When asked whether there would be an
extra session of congress, the senator
said : "Not unless the democrats force
it. The republicans will do nothing to
delay action. We will not even fight
against the appropriation for the execu
tion of the income tax. We believe that
the tax is odious and ought not to be en
forced, but as tbe democrats have placed
it upon the statute books, it may, per
haps, be a good thing to let the country
see just how unpleasant it is. There
will be speeches against it, but no fac
tious opposition."

Representative Russell of Connecticut,
a republican member of the house com
mittee on banking and currency, does
not believe that the treasury can get any
relief from financial legislation, no mat
ter what its nature, until the tariff has
been rearranged on the lines of protec
tion and a sufficient revenue provided to
meet the needs of the government. He
recognizes, as do most unprejudiced
students of the financial situation, that
those two bond issues wonld have been
made even if no treasury notes or green
backs had ever been presented for re
demption in gold. In short, that while
those bond issues were nominally made
to replenish the gold reserve they were
in reality made to meet the deficit caused
by the new tariff law. As to the finan
cial bill now before ihe house, Mr. Rus
sell believes that the administration can
force it through the house, but has his
doubts about, whether Mr. Cleveland
will care to do so, now that he has had
an opportunity to learn what the country
thinks of it. Cas.
