THE DAVIS SIDESHOW.
The forty-day hold-up .at Salem
will go down into history as the
worst conducted political battle ever
fought in any, state in the nnion.
There has been no organized fight on
either side, unless the combination
presided over by Jonathan Bourne
can be classed as such. It has been
tLe struggle of two. or three mobs,
ench without intelligent leadership;
but of all the silly side-show ever
accompanying the political circus,
the Davis house is entitled to the
chromo. '
One would think that Davis and
the two or three imbeciles that are
associated with him, would take a
tumble to themselves; that they
would discover that they have no
existence. Davis was legally elected
speaker of ihe temporary organiza
tion, though by questionable methods,
and remained speaker until the house
removed him. Of its right to re
move him there is no more question
than of its right to appoint him : but
Davis eviJeqtly took his cue from
Joe Simon", and thinks that the mo
ment he was elected he became
greater than the power that elected
bim. i
As a case of aggregated and ag
gravated individual and collective
assininity, Davis is a Gulliver among
the Lilliputians. '
IT WORKED ON HIM.
Mr. Jones letter, which appears on
our local page, gives quite a dcscrip
tion of bis pedigree. As we read it
.over we Called to mind a story of a
man going to Texas in an early day,
,lie was crossing ( tne babine river,
the boundary between Louisiana and
Texas, on a ferryboat. Addressing
the ferryman, he asked how it was
that Texas was so full of sharpers
and men without much principle,
yet who were all making money.
The ferryman jokingly replied
that when those fellows came to
Texas thev all took a drink of Sa
bine water, and that was the cause of
it. Without sayiug a word, the
stranger dipped up a pint cup full of
water and drank it When the boat
reached the shore he mounted his
borse and put out on the run, with-
ont paying the ferryman. The latter
looked at the disappearing horseman
a moment, and then remarked:
"Well, I'll be darned if I "ever saw
that water take effect so quick be
fore." Jones' pedigree is good, but the
Oregon climate took effect on him
too sudden.
THE TRUE SITUATION.
' Our local page today contains Rep
resentative Huntington's views on
the situation at Salem, and while its
. perusal will show that Mr. Hunting
ton attempts to put the matter fairly
and conscientiously, it will also con
vince any unbiased person that the
blame for the hold-up lies with Joe
Simon and the anti-Mitchell wing of
the Republican party.
The Republicans in the senate
favoring Senator MitchetPs re-election,
although in the minority, made
so attempt to Lola that body up,
but did their duty by going in and
organizing, even though Joe Simon,
their enemy, was made" president
thereby; they bowed to the will of
the. majority and voted for Suron,
boi because they liked him, but be
cause the majority of the party in
the senate wanted him. The Re
publicans in the lower house favor
ing Mitchell, claimed the right they
had conceded to those opposed to
them in the matter of organizing the
senate, that was the right of the ma
jority to organize. the house. -This
the Simonites would not iiotmit, and
instead of submttlinz to the will of
the majority in their party, a faction
joined the Populists and bi-metalHsts,
refused to qualify .'and so prevented
the organization' of the house.; They
then claimed they , were willing to
compromise- on their own terms1
and those were that moie than thirty
Republican members should surren
der to less than ten;' that the small
minority should dictate to the large
majority ; that the Republicans, with
fort members in the house, should
elect a speaker from the Populist
party that had a membership of
thirteen ; and that Senator Mitchell,
who bad a clear majority of both
bouses in the caucus for senator,
should be withdrawn, and the minor
ity that would not attend that caucus
should be allowed to name his suc
cessor. The refusal of the Populists to
qualify of course made this action by
the Republican contingent possible,
and the Populists are undoubtedly to
blame for refusing to qualify; but
the weight of the offense cannot be
placed en them. The Republican
minority can settle the question at
any time without them. The game
is in their hands, and however much
the Populists may be to blame for
refusing to assist in organization, the
fact remains that the Republicans
can organize at any time without
them, and hence those Republicans
who hold out must bear all Cle blame.
It is to the Populists' interests to
prevent the election of a United
States senator, and the are working
for tne nenent or their party, it is
to the interest of the Republican
party that a senator be elected, for
only by that means will the party
have control of the United States
senate. The Simon Republicans are
working against their, party, and giv
ing the control of the senate to those
opposed to Republican principles.
And what is all this tempest al
leged by these immaculate politicians
to be raised for? -The election of a
Populist speaker over a Republican
house ? Nobody believes that. The
Simonites are holding out to beat
Mitchell, and nothing else. If they
will go in, "organize the house, and
then beat Mitchell, no one will ob
ject They can vote as their con
sciences, Joe Simon's interests, di
rects. The objection to their action
is not on account of their senatorial
predelictions, but to their holding up
the organization. .
As to Mr. Simon's assertion that
he did not agree to support Bourne
for speaker, but only not to oppose
him, that is the thinnest thing Mr
Simon ever did. If he will not op
pose him, his henchmen cannot go
contran to Bourne's helots; hence,
must stand with him.
'The Populists, under the leader
ship of Bourne, have v violated all
their pledges." True. Equally true"
is it that the Republicans who refuse
to organize the , house have violated
all their pledges. The Republican
party is not to blame. A large ma
jority of its members desire to do
their duty, and all of it; but the
Simon contingent has thrown party
and principles literally to the dogs,
and it alone is responsible for the
situation at Salem.

about the matter.
A COWARDLY COUNTRY.
It were .hard to decide which civ
ilized nation of the earth is at pres
ent showing the greatest evidence of
moral cowardice. Looking at. the
situation, in TuikeyVwe should say
England was entitled to the honor
but as we cast our eyes on Cuba, we
feel that England isn't in it. , In Ar
menia and Crete the Turks are kill
leg the citizens of those places. In
Cuba the Spaniards are killing not
only the Cubans, but ever' day or
so they assassinate a citizen of the
United States. -
England, with all her cowardice
protects lier own. The United States
alone 'can be slapped to sleep by a
tenth-rate power, and has not the
courage to resent it.
Russia conducts her affairs as
though she expected to exist as
nation forever, and so is regardless
of time. In 1878 on the settlement of
-the Turkish war indemnity, it was
arranged that Turkey was to pay
Russia $1,500,000 a year for 100
years. In 1892, Turkey being un
able to meet her payments, Russia
scaled dcuvn her debt to one-half the
original sum, and recently a further
reduction was made, Russia agreeing
to tako 25 per cent of the original
sum, and at the same time the period
of payment was extended 400 years.
When the carving comes to be done,
Russia will Be on hand with her
claims, and will demand a liberal
share of the white meat in payment
of her debt. ..
The Oresonian takes Bliss, Hoar,
Thurston, and all the other eastern
senators and politicians who have
ventured suggestions concerning the
legislative muddle in this ' state to
task. It tells them to mind -their
own business as curtly as Pennoyer
did Cleveland. It is true it took
Pennoyer to task also for his boorish-
ness; but there is a vast difference
between boorishness on the 'part of
Pennoyer, and "on the part of the
Oregonian! They are entirely dif
ferent animals. While reading the
riot act to these gentlemen for inter
fering in something that is none of
their business, it proceeds to lectme
the United States senate on its duties
in connection with the admission of
senators. The Oregonian editor is
becoming senile, and its utterances
are but the silly vaporing of toothless
age, they have lost their bite.
Senator Smith voted in the1- senate
to adjourn until Monday, but he

when they all sat idly by while the
Turkish soldiery massacred defense
less women and children. If it has
become necessar' to maintain peace
in Europe to permit wholesale mur
der, to humor the fancy of the un
spcakable Turk for massacre, and to
suffer the Christian population of
Crete to be slaughtered, then the
sooner the peace of Europe is de
stroyed, the bettei.
This is tne anniversary of the
birth of the immortal Washington
and had he lived, he would today
begin his 165th year. Wonder what
he would think of this country if he
could see it now. What would he
think if he could if he could cast bis
his eye "where rolls the Oregon and
knows" nothing," unless Joe Sipion
says so? or rcEt his gaze onUbna
than's side whiskers? What would
he think to see free-born -American
legislators groveling at the feet of a
party boss, as a Senegambian helot
cringed before ' the lash of his Spar-
'jan master? What? .
Judge Bellinger iu his attempt to
force a right of way for. the boat
railway over private . lands without
having the government pay what the
right of way is found -by the juries
to be worth; is doing great damage
to the Northwest, by delaying . the
construction of the boat railway.
Nothing can be done until the right-of-way
question is settled, and the
matter bids fair to be postponed in
definitely on that account. The loss
to, the people by delay is a hundred
times greater than the total sums
awarded for the right of . way.
The Bourne contingent do not
want - much. All that mob asks" is
that the majority "exhibit a little
patriotism" and allow the minority
to organize the legislature and elect
a senator. In return for this they
propose to give nothing, thinking the
majority should be satisfied with
showing their, patriotism.. .
Carnegie and others have been

Over in the Washington legisla
ture Jory, the member from Yakima,
explains some foolish actions of his
by saying he is troubled with "dys
pepsia of the brain." We suggest
this to the member from this county
who cannot tell Bourne's headquar
ters from the state capitol. But no
that cannot be, for while it may be
dyspepsia, it certainly never attacked
that brain.
No man knows what the Oregon
legislature will do; Tmt from 'the
proceedings' Monday it looks as
though no agreement can be reached,
and that adjournment sine Deo will
take place .tomorrow. Some think
the' senate cannot adjourn without
theaconsentof the house. If this be
true, and' the house refuses to or
ganize, the senate will have to sit for
two years. : -
General Weyler,the Cuban butcher,

should he be popped over at any
time.

. A Vicious Measure.
The Cline dispensary law, passed by
the lower house at Olympia Tuesday,.
finds few supporters in this part of the
moral vineyard. It pleases neither the
prohibitionists nor the defenders of the
liquor traffic. It is not fish, flesh nor
fowl, and the people of the state will
spew it out of their months. y
Prohibitionists condemn the- law be
cause it makes the people of the state,
through their public officers, assume all
the responsibility, for the evils of in
temperance. The large majority of
Bentible people condemn the law be
cause Jt cats off all revenue from the
liqaor traffic, at the same time that it
confiscates millions of dollars' worth of
property in the hands of citizens, who
have been given no warning of sncb
raeh and unjust action on the part of our
lawmakers.
The proposed system is revolutionary,
and calculated to arouse bitter strife
and insurrection. As well, might the
state, license incendiaries, to apply the
torch to all saloons, breweries and dis
tilleries in the state. The liqaor busi
ness in this state has long been recog
nized as a legitimate business' by law.

It was four years ago next month that
Urs. M. M. Hoyt, who lives at 2429 Wenfr
worth Avenue, earns to Chicago. She was
at that time bed-ridden, suffering from in
Bammatory rheumatism and not able to
raise her feet from the floor. One of the
best physicians in Chicago treated her here
three weeks but was unable to 'effect, even
reliet He gave up her ease, believing
nothing could be done for her and that she
had but a few days to live.
In speaking of her Bufferings and the re
lief and permanent cure effected later she
says: "When I was five years old I was
taken down with inflammatory rheumatism.
but after a comparatively short time it pass
ed off, and I was free from all its symptoms
until I was fourteen years old. Then I had
another attack, of which I was cured, and
did not have a sick day until four years ago
unristmas afternoon l&ft. . .
"I had lived twenty-six years in Luding-

on the lake. The weather in both places is

colder than it is here. In Manistee for many
years l conducted a dressmaKing establish

sick. I knew all the prominent people in
Manistee and it was hard for me to close my
Dusmess ana leave all tne people l bad known
there for years. - My four children, all of
wnom are married, uvea in other states.
One daughter lived in Chicago and being

without warning. I was suddenly taken
with chills and rheumatio fever, which grew

all they could for me, but I was helpless in
Ded until tne end or May irc. xne puysi
cians advised me to leave the shores of the
lake and especially Manistee. I took their
advice and came to Chicago.
"Kheumatism was in my hands, my feet

me tell you how I got them. My hands be

tism and were smooth and shiny just like a
piece of glass. The skin by the swelling
was stretched to such a point that it burst
wherever you see the. scars and from the
wounds came water for auite a Ion? time.
My- sufferings were almost unbearable, and
I faned the treatment of one of Chicago's
oldest ana best physicians. 1 took his medi
cine for three weeks, but only mew worse.
I became so nervous that-1 could not sleep
and my stomach became so weak, whether
rrom tne strong drugs or my general debili
tated condition I know not, but it was diffi
cult for me io retain any solid food. Ht)
gave up my case and advised me to send Sot
my husband. . ...
" I knew by that advice, that he did not
give me much longer to live. Instead I
went to one of my daughters who lives in the
southern part of Indiana, in Elnora, Davis
County, where her husband, Asa Haig, was
one of the prominent merchants.- I believed
the climate there, being away from-the in
fluences of Lake Michigan might help me.
I had been in Elnora about one week, not
feeling any -better, when one day I received
from my daughter in"Chicago three boxes of
Dr. Williams'
r JfroTH the ChronicU, Chicago, IU. .
Pink Pills for Pale People,
telling me in her letter that she had read in
a newspaper of the wonderful cures they
had effected. That she had gone to the wo
men the newspaper spoke about and found
then and .they told her every word said
about thent was true. She pleaded that I try
these pills and perhaps I would find the
lame benefits. I did not hesitate.. as any
thing that promised relief, let alone a cure I
tras only too glad to try. I commenced tak
ing them, two pills three times a day.
"For eieht months nasi I had not been
able to comb my hair, dress myself or walk,
and had to be fed during all this time like a -babe.
Well, the first pills I remember dis
tinctly, I took on a Saturday, and the follow
ing Monday I found this improvement:
namely, my nerves seemed to be firmer and
my pains less. I wish to state that at this
time, for the last four mqnths I had not slept
over an hour at a time, had suffered so great
ly from nervous prostration, to the extent that -the
least noise would completely upset -and
make me shake like one having the agsje.
This Monday evening I was sitting in my -chair,
and bear in mind, my daughter's house
was full of company" making more or less
noise, all tending to keep me nervous. With
all that I commenced to feel easier, a strange
and quieting feeling I iiad not experienced
unnstmas arternoon i was stnexen
since that Ci
down. I called
Ada, I don't know
to my daughter and said,
what has come over me,
I feel so restful and actually feel sleepy,'
think I will try to eo to sleep.' I could se
that she was surprised and pleased. Imme.
p.' I could se
diately she undressed me and put me to bed.
"I slept soundly from 0 o'clock till 1
o'clock in the morning, and that mind you
with a house full of people. I remained
awake but a short time, feeling better than I '
had for months, and went into a sound sleep,
never waking till 7 o'clock in the morning.
It was very hot down there in August, but
from that time I slept and rested well. Then
I felt and saw an improvement gradually go. '
ing on. The first thing I noticed was, that
the swelling in my hands was going down;
and after several weeks assumedtheir natni
al shape, and the tightly drawn skin, which
looked like glass disappeared altogether at
well as the pain. - Before this time when,
ever I tried to close mv hands my fineei

ing hale and hearty, and that after having
nsed the miraculous Pink Pills of Dr. Wit

one and a half dozen boxes. -

my side. sIL I have to do is to take a few of .
the pills for a day or so and they take every

not taken any pills since I was cured. 'Aha -the
pills I have taken since have not been
for my old trouble,- but simply for colds1,
