They are hazel tan, pigeon gray, mountain and silver blue colors. Tweeds, checks and stripes -are a few of the patterns in fabrics. Shoulders are well set up; hips are trim; trousers hang easily; single or double breasted models are good. Through standardization and volume busi ness we are able to offer you Hart Schaffner & Marx clothes at $37.50 to $52.50 vetoes both the Eastern Oregon normal school and tubercu-iUv.p,y rl,"od 'n important inter prises, he has borne tho reputation "The premises considered, your committee, recommends that fur ther action in the Instant case be not taken nnd that the right of tho Hon.

Both were voted by the people of a 'man of character nnd mte iwith- tremendous majorities. Eoth have strong administra- cr!!,y; tiona.pproval. And it is entirely possible for the executive to cut ippiopriutions to the necessary point without disturbing the institutions which are so seriously needed. - Jicgon's financial muddle is blamed on Pierce by the Orcjronian and on Patterson by the Oregon Voter. The lat ter would probably give our ox-governor a share of the blame, too,; if he requested it, but The Observer can see no logical rcaon for leaving the present legislature'out of the picture. It was dominated by Patterson, it's true, but it didn't have to be.' Pierce policies resulted in the property tax base be in? lowered but the legislature wasn't bound'to merely twiddle its thumbs because of that fact. It had a good tax program worked out but got very little of it actually introduced. If it hbd Agreed on some ciirifctfce .x logifWathfijj hatfphssed it,' hnd. had suffered an executive veto, then there would hava been, reasonable cause to blame the governor for poor cooperation. But it wasn't done. - After, hearing the execu tive lax message and passing the income tax on to the voters the; legislature suffered paralysis of the brain and the afflic tion' seems to have lasted. Pierce did what he thought was best for Oregon. Patterson did what he thought was best foriOregon. The action of both riiay prove idiotic in the light of history, but at least they did something. And that's more tliah can be said for the legislative b'ralich of our popular (?) li'tl bihallner & Matx Club Clothes Trp seems that all clothing advertisements mal-io ,, .7-, practically the same claims and all clothing, illustrations look much alike v , .

A DISGUSTING LEGISLATIVE SESSION - ' The legislature lias adjourned leaving a financial mud illoj unctiualled in Oregon history, to be solved by the gov ernor.
