WELLS AS A PLATYPUS.
David A. Wells, the eminent statis
ticlan and recognized authority on tarin
matters, has discovered a new constitu-
' tional objection to the income tax laws
jue declares we law is uncoiisiitunuuai,
in that the $4,000 exemption is in viola
tion of the constitutional provision that
''all duties, imports and excises shall be
uniform throughout the United States."
David A. Wells was at one time a re
publican, but he is now a pretty thor
ough democrat, or at least free trader,
He has probably discovered more mare's
, nests than any man in the United
States, including New Jersey. Mr.
Wells, while turning the lamp of his in
tellect onto the intricacies of the tariff
laws of the countrj a good many years
ago, stubbed his toe on a full grown nest,
of the kind we have mentioned that had
a very large sized free trade egg in it,
which the eminent statistician aforesaid
at once proceeded to hover, and assisted
largely in successfully incubating. Just
what he succeeded in hatching the
present administration Las' demon
strated. After the egg, such as it was,
was hatched, Mr. Wells' maternal feel
ings being also fully developed, he
turned, (as soon as the feathers again
sprouted on his gallinaceous breast,) his
whole attention to proving that the fin
ished product of his labors was a swan,
notwithstanding the fact that its noisy
gabbling proclaimed its anserine parent
age, and species.
Now, Mr. Wells has stubbed his toe
over another nest, which this time con
tains an income-tax egg, which the
eminent statistician aforesaid, is firmly
of the opinion, was born out of wedlock.
He thinks the tax unconstitutional be
cause it does not tax all incomes, and
therefore violates the provision of the
-constitution, that "all excises shall be
uniform throughout the United States."
ne iaiiB 10 see mat tms tax is umtorm,
yet it is undoubtedly eo. If Mr. Wells'
position is correct, then the tariff on
Bugar could not recognize the grade
thereof ; the tariff on woolen goods would
be so much per yard, without regard to
value, and to go further, since the tariff
tax is practically a per capita tax and tar
iff on consumption, the tariff laws would
be unconstitutional unless every con
sumer paid the same tax, and hence
' would have to be abandoned, unless a
law could be passed compelling the poor
man to' purchase as many diamonds and
drink as much champagne as the rich
one, for otherwise the tax being unequal,
would be also unconstitutional. Mr.
Wells has not always been of his present
opinion. In 1870 he stood with Senator
Sherman who said on the floor of the
senate that "the income tax was the
A. S L -1 -. 11 a 1 .
must just uo equiiauio tax ever piacea
upon the statute books of this, or any
other country." The income tax has
come to stay, for a while at least : and
that, whether we like it or not. ' That
those who have the tax to pay object to
it now, and will continue to object to it
as long as it is on the statute books, is a
foregone conclusion. That those who
do not have it to pay will pronounce it a
just tax, is equally certain. The income
tax was never popular in this country,
It was levied as a "war measure," just
as the Morrill tariff was, but as soon as
the war was over the income tax was re
moved betore the debt created in the
prosecution of the war was paid, which
was neither just nor honest, although at
the time it Beamed necGssarv. if TTnnl
Sam's ears were not to be forever
deafened by the ceaseless clamor of those
whose incomes were largely the result of
the war, in which the debt was incurred.
Mr. Wells has a fecund breast bone, the
warming effects of which aro.vivifying to
the contiguous ovum regardless of genus.
His oviparous tendencies, taken in con
nection with his numerous bills would
entitle him to rank as the Great Amer
ican Ornithorhynchus.
NO RAILROAD WANTED.
The Prineville Review has stirred up
quite a controversy concerning th)fe affect
it would" hAve oil the business interests
of Crook county to have a railroad built
into it. The Review thinks the eoiinty
better off without it, and frankly says so,
It invited opinions from those who
thought differently from itself, and it is
getting them. " We have followed the
discussion closely, because the subject is
an inteiesting one to us, because the Re
view has presented some arguments we
consider unanswerable, and that cer
tainl." remain eo, as far as the argument
has progressed, and because we have
had experience in just such a ease.
That experience was had in the Btate of
Nevada, we living in a stock region,
where conditions were almost identical
with those now existing in Crook county.
Everybody was prosperous, produce
brought a good price, and the money
paid to the freighters was largely spent
in the country. The hay and grain used
by them made a good market for those
products. The coming of the Nevada
Central railroad changed these condi
tions, and the freighter vanished. So
did the market, so did prices. Freight
with the exception of a few products
staples, was as high as ever, but instead
of being paid to dozens of teamsters
who spent the money again or a largi
portion of it, for the products of the
c6untry it went to San Francisco and re
turned no more. That was fourteen
years aeo and that section of the state'
has never been worth a tinker's curse,
Speaking from experience we heartily
indorse the position taken and so well
maintained by the Review.
A lid IJhe Worm Turned.
THE LEGISLATURE.
The legislature meets next Monday
and already the gathering of the birds
indicate that the feast is getting ripe
It is to be hoped the legislature will be
organized speedily; that the useless
army ol clerks will be dispensed with
and that only a sufficient force will be
employed to do the work, and that then
the legislature proceed to carry out that
one plank of each platform that pledged
each party to abolish the railroad com
mission. There are a half-dozen other
commission, and they all want to be
fired bodily, but the railroad com mis
sion nrst, Uf course nothing will be
done until the senatorial question is
settled, and that is not going to take
very long, as one side or the other will
win easily.
There is need of ' considerable legisla-
tion, most of it of a negative-character,
and consisting of repealing some of the
laws passed two years ago. We believe
that - the proper steps should be taken
now for holding a constitutional conven
tion, so that we could start in the new
century in better shape. The constitu
tion of the state of Oregon was a good
one, but we have somewhat outgrown
it. In fact, to carry on the business of
the state it has become necessary to ig
nore the constitution, or at least cus
strue it so that it is made to mean some
thing entirely different from what it is.
It is stated that the democrats in the
legislature will cast their vote for Hon.
A. S. Bennett, of this city, for United
States senator. While their votes do
not count, it would be a fitting compli
ment to one of the brighestand brainiest
men in the state, regardless of politics
Now that Judge Bennett's name has
been mentioned in connection with that
complimentary vote, there should be no
further seeking after the proper person
to receive that vote for he has been
found.
Adolph Sutro, the new mayor of San
Francisco, has issued a call for a meet-1
ing to consider San. Francisco's wicked
ness.- The most serious grievance is that
the prosecuting attorney refused to pros
ecute C. P. Huntington for violating the
interstate commerce law. It is really
wonderful how -philanthropic and moral
some people become after they have
sinned profitably, and got all they want.
We remember the time when Ad&Lnh.
was manipulating Sutro tunnel affairs,
that his name was not even suggested
for canonisation, la faoj Adblpll was. as"
Sntle as a dove, but as wise as a den of
serpents. Co to! Adolph and i&He the
lumber yard out Of your stat-board eye. -
Frank Lenz, the bicyclist who has
been contributing some very spirited
articles to Outing, is supposed to have
been killed in Turkey. The American
board of foreign missions has granted
permission to one of their missionaries
to go in search of the missing man In the
country about Deli Bba pass. Mr.
Lenz will be remembered by the cyclists
here he having passed- through .The
Dalles on his trip, which is now sup
posed to have ended so disastrously.
The picture of Senator Dolph in yes
terday's Oregonian,. will be responsible
if he is defeated. There are all manner
and degrees of badness, but that cut
labeled "Senator Dolph reflective," is
the meanest meanness, and the vilest
vile. If we mistake not that same cut
was used two years ago as an illustration
of a typical Coxeyite. Senator Dolph
has good cause of action against the
Oregonian for libel.

Pain baa go show with Dr. Miles? Pain Pills. 1
He was a small, slender Man, wfbfe
eklm-nailk eyes, both as to color and
thehr well Watered condition, find bis
whole appearance betokened one ..who
' had grown weary in the battle of life.
His Prince Albert. oat, that bad been
made for some one much larger than
him-gelf, clung affectionately to his form,
in places, and. was buttoned tightly un
der his chin. A Fedora bat, much the
worse for wear, sat squarely upon his
molasses-candy-colored hair, as firmly
as the untoward Fates did on him. A
pair of pants, jeans, fit the sinuosities of
his meager limbs so tightly that one
could not but wonder if he put his pants
on first, how he ever got his boot legs
under them, yet it seemed not a very
difficult feat either, if you observed that
they bad but a little distance to go, the
pants having been pulled quite young.
Taken all together, he was not prepos
sessing, yet when he slipped up to Col.
Sinnott, of the Umatilla House, and
rested his weight on one foot, while he
lifted his Fedora in a deprecatory sort
of way, there was such an air of listless,
hopeless, woe-begone despondency about
him as to make him a sort of living and
pathetic protest against life. -
He shifted uneasily from his right
foot to his left, and then back to the
right again, while the Fedora balanced
on the index finger of his left hand, re
volved slowly like the earth, from left to
right, being twirled absent-mindedly as
he requested something to eat, and ex
pressed his willingness to work tor it.
"Something to eat? Why, of course,"
said the Col ; "but what can you do?
Can you saw wood?" The gaze that had
been vacant before, became fixed ; the
listnessness vanished, the hat ceased to
twirl, and his weight rested for an in
stant firmly on both feet. Then his
lower lip quivered, his left hand tremu
lously sought his tace, and the big tears
gathering in his eyes, welled over, and
impinging on his weather-beaten cheeks,
fell with a crescendo movement to the
floor. The Gol. was touched, and find
ing the little fellow a seat by tbe stove,
sat down and by degrees won from him
this tale : '
You see," said the little man mourn
fully, "when you spoke of sawing wood
you touched a tender spot. -1 haint
done nothin' but saw wood for nigh onto
fourteen years. I was married twenty
years ago to my Ann, a pretty girl,, too,
she was, that might have done better ;
but somehow things didn't go right, and
by the time our first baby was 5 years old
arid the youngest of our four was nearly
a year, I had spent what little money, I
had saved when I got married ; and be
sides, owing to , the - man I . worked for
dying, I was left without work. Well,
bought a buck saw, and thought to
fill the, hungry mouths that way, uutil
something better turned up. When
spring came the only ' thing that bad
turned up was James, that was our fifth
child. I didn't have time then to look
for anything else, it taking all my time
pumping the buck-saw so many pumps
for bread, so many for potatoes, so many
for paregoric and red flannel. Good
Lord ! It makes my back ache when
think of it. . .
'Well, it wasn't long until spring came
around again, and so did Omega. That
was our sixth child, a girl ; but in spite
of the name, we only passed one spring
until another girl arrived. More pare
goric, more red flannel, and the bread
and potatoes required considerable more
pumps over the buck-saw. Another
spring passed, and tnen anotner, witn a
total failure of crops, eo to speak, and I
begin to take heart again : and then the
next spring it was twins. I didn't say
nothin', but kept on sawing wood, but
I tell you it was tough. ' Every morning
the streak of day found roe bowing over
that saw, and I neyer bowed myself out
until it was too doo dark to see.
The years fled by quick enough, and
without interest, except that I used to
get uneasy in the spring, wondering if
paregoric, and red flannel were going to
be in the bill, and expecting every night
when I went home to hear a new cry ;
also wondering why some of the rich
fellows whom I sawed wood for wasn't
picked out Jby the babies for a father to
themselves, instead of eternally select
ing me. It was nattering, of course,
their choosing me, but hang flattery,
any way !
"Well, to make a long story short, I
stuck to the buck-saw and its successors
(for I wore out many a one), until last
spring. There were thirteen in the
family still at home, a couple of the old
est girls being out at work and helping
me some. Last spring, I confers it with
shame, I abandoned my family and the
d d buck-saw. My bump of parental
affection is developed sufficiently, and I
would have still been pushing that buck
saw, but last spring, when the crops
failed again, and I begin to pickup a
bit, my Ann that's my wife took sick,
or rather she took hungry. . She had an
appetite like a cross-cut saw, and when
she had about eaten us out of a house
and home, I got the county doctor to
come down and see her. After he had
got through with his examination, he
turned to me, and says her "Mr. WU-
liamson, your wife has a tape-worm.'
That day I went to my work as UBual,
but I never went back. I left the "buck-
county was eapable of running up
against the tape. I have a chronic ob
jection to sawing wood, but if you have
arfything else, I'll do it."
; The Col. was (bached, and the roan
goj, his supper. ' without tackling the
wood pile. The next day the Col.
called us across the street, and the first
thing, he said, as we smoked (at his ex
pense), was: "Say! Do you remember
that little chap with the wood-sawing
experience that was here last night?"
On our answering in the affirmative, he
went on : "Well, sir, do you know fur
ther that he lied?" "Whr, how was
that, Col.?" we asked. "How? Why,
the little shrimp, he had the tape-worm
himself." '

A nappy JNew Year to you, and a con
tinuation of all the good things of last
year ' and as ' many more as can come,
Already we have received blessings in
the way of excellent weather. Some
snow has fallen, but is gone almost as
soon as here. We have had a few nights
that have been a little pinching, suffi
cient to freeze over the still waters of
the creek and to entirely freeze the
John Day in some places to such . a
strength as to bear sheep in crossing
them. But at present a Chinook has
been lending us its good cheer, and now
the - ground is almost bare as far as can
been seen from here. New Year's day
was especially splendid, but the 2d was
one of the worst days of my experience,
Snow' and wind seemed to be in a rage
and intent on covering up or blowing
away anything in their way. The next
morning there was something near six
inches of snow ; but it soon melted
away by the soft breath from the west.
- New Year's could not be passed over
unless someone must suffer some afflc
tion. Mr. George Collins fell down and
broke his ankle as he was taking his
weary, and I expect uncertain, way
home from the saloon in the wee sma'
hours; Mr. Collins is one of our best
carpenters, and his misfortune is a little
drawback, but if he must tip the cups
of satan's draught he must expect
broken legs, and mayhap a neck.
The New Year's ball was a success,
although the attendance was small.
Everyone enjoyed themselves, especi
ally at supper, which was well I
heard someone say it was splendid, and
I think it must have been, for I was
there and I ate well I think I ate too
much of everything on the table, for the
next morning I was down on my back
part of the time, and part of the time on
my stomach groaning from a bilious at
tack. It wsb not the supper, oh no !
You know I could not be such a pig as
that; but I was really sick, sick enough
to require a powder from the doctor,
and that is sick enough. Yes, the sap
per was very good. '
" One of our New Year's blessings is in
the fact of Mrs. Dr. Houck conval
escing from a series of complaints that
kept her confined to her room for about
two weeks. And another, which I hope
will prove advantageous to the goers
is Dr. Hemlock and wife are preparing
to leave us. They mean to make Lone
Rock their future home. Also the
school meeting call, for the purpose of
levying a tax. The object to be accom
plished is to have a new schoolhouse,
The purpose was accomplished by two
to one.
A dispute came up between two
minds, names I do not know, concern
ing a horse trade, which was empha
sized by a blow, tried by Justice Jesse
Allen, and settled by a fine.
' The death of Mrs. O. S. Boardman at
6 o'clock New Year's morning caused a
great sensation, as - well as heartfelt sor
row. She had been sick but a few days,
and the general opinion was that she
was much better. No woman near here
had a wider range of friends than she,
and none we could miss more. She
leaves a husband,' one son and -one
daughter, Vincent and Stella, to mourn
the loss of a dear true friend,' wife and
mother. E. V. E.

The Storm in Clackamas.
. Oregon City, Jan. 13. Last night'
wind storm 'moved the house of Mr,
Phillips, at Gladstone, from its founda
tion, and only a convenient woodpile
prevented its upsetting. Tbe family
still occupies the house, which is
rather frail structure. A large rock was
detached from the bluff in the southern
part of town as tbe local train was going
up this morning, and it fell so near the
track that the steps were taken from
car in the train. Telegraph and tsle
phone wires were prostrated by the
storm, but the telegraph lines were soon
restored to working order. Several elec
tric lights were disabled. The tall flag
pole at Cataract hosehouse was blown
down. The recent rains have brought
tbe river up again, and it is 23 feet above
low water mark below the falls tonight,
Above the falls today at noon, the water
marked 11 :3 feet, and the locks had to
be closed to navigation. The river is ex

Gunst Is Denounced.
San Fbancisco, Jan. 12. Citizens re
sponded by thousands to Sutra's call for
a mass meeting to protest against the
appointment of Mose Gunst as 'police
commissioner, to denounce . United
States Attorney Knight for his refusal to
issue a warrant for the arrest of C. P.
Huntington for a violation of the inter
state commerce law, and to. denounce
the frauds that were committed at the
last election. Metropolitan hall was
crowded to tbe doors and thousands of
people were turned away.. The meeting
was very business-like. Representative
citizens were there; speeches were knade
by prominent men, and appropriate res
olutions were adopted. The resolutions
adopted denounce C. P. Huntington as a
self-confessed briber, and accuse him of
taking $56,000,000 from English stock
holders in the Central Pacific. A solemn
protest is entered against the passage of
the funding bill, and the speaker of the
house is appealed to to protect the
people of California by refusing to give'
a special order for a day to the Pacific
railroad committee. Each individual
Member of congress is appealed to not to
overlook 200,000 protests Against this
bill filed "by inhabitants of the Pacific
