Twenty years ago if yon or I were to say a word against the United States senate or the supreme court, we wonld have been called anarchists and pointed out as undesirable citi- Z6Today men look with diBtrust and d'sdain at the miscarriage products of our great justice tribunals, and last week a resolution was presentod at Washington demanding that the United States senate be abolished. Beoause Socialist presented the resolution doesn't make any differ ence, or alter conditions. MoBt of us won't give the matter much serious eosideration, simply because a Mil waukee SooialiBt congiessman intro duced it, yet down in our hearts we know he voioed the sentiment of an army of American voters in his stat ment that "the senato has beooine an obstructive, useless body-a menace to the people's liberties." t What ails our great senate is that it is not representative, and like Jour oourts,the people have little confi dence in it. It is made up of the oountry's aristocrats, the silk-stocking orowd that the big interests elect. It is disgraced by the Lorimers, by corporations' handy men, and it is so far removed from the common people that oontempt has tasen tne pmue m respect. . , . , , The members of this great body owe nothing to the voters for their seats. They may represent you or sell you but, and vou can dobsolotaly noth ing to reward or punish. The great corporations have filled it with the Platts, Depews, Roots and their like, and so long as the people are deprived of the right of direot election ot sena tors, so long will the senate continue to throw dice with yon. And you know that if the senate be abolished today and we be depend ant. pnt.irnlv on the Justioe of a con- n.a whinii we elect, and have the power to make responsive, we woult naval- 111 lad t.hfl crreat. august botly; flia irrtvornmnnK WOO Id vet live and our country wonld be millions -..nmrinrarl rlnlllirn til the 1100(1. wimn riHonle laugh at the United States senate and sneer at our su preme court deoisions, there b some thing rotten and dangerous that needs remedying.

In a paper of the standing of the nrnnmii it is iutit a little amusing to see its editorial columns try to cover something the writer knows nnthmn ahout.

A committee made a visit to Portland and secured the uromise of a special train from the metropolis on May 11, Portland Day. Lebanon, Or., is planning to give a strawberry festival this year on a larger ecale than ever before attempt ed, aocording to State Senator Miller. who i9 in Portland in the interest ot the affair. The celebration will con tinue three days, and frill be given in the flsrt woek in June. The Oregon Mining Congress that meets in Portland May lb-is, will bring together a large number of men interested in this industry. Many parts of the WeBt will be represented. It is intended to arouse greater inter est in mining, an activity that has been neglected to a considerable ex tent in this state. Charged with taking money for orchard lands to whioh they had no title, the officers of the Columbia Orohard Company of Portland were arrehted by Detectives Tiohenor and Howell. Monday afternoon, on com plaint of Frederick J. Goodby, the allnged victim. Those arrested are Helen M. Geren, J. H. Tipton and E. O. Easton. Klamath Falls is turning its atten tion to beautifying the city and its environs. Efforts will bf- made to have property owners plant shade tri es and improve the appearance of the community in other ways The West is getting crettty well over its frontier days and is generally inter ested in adding to its attraotiveness wherever possible. Last week, at Hood River W. S. Farris sold his holdings of three apple traots. consisting of BO acres, to V. A. Chapman, ot Bend, Or., , who will take immediate charge and develop the unimpoved portions. Thirty-five acres of the tracts are already set in trees, five of ihem bearing, and 15 aores are in strawberries. The pur ohase price was $45,000. A new alignment of good roads forces was made during the past week at a meeting in Portland when steps were taken to organize a Btatewiae good roads association with country branches. The former Oregon Good Hnnds Association was dissolved, at. ter all its affairs had been wound up, Kv means of the new organization it is expeoted to seoure co-operation throughout Oregon to accomplish its ohiects. Sentiment for good roads legislation will De aroused. The cutting of burned .cedar poles has become quite an industry in Coos and Ourrv oounties. Last year an ex perimental order was given for the burned over piling by the Santa Fe railroad. The timber was found to be satisfactory and there is a big de mand for it. There are large quanti ties of burned over cedar in the for BHts of the coast counties and it has been found still serviceable even 40 years after the trees were killed by fire. The new stallion law which was passed by the last session of the legis. latnre will go into errect May zo, The stall ion biard has been organized and plans for the work are being made, but do licenses will be issued until after May 2o. Stallion owners should, however, get in their applica tions before that date. Animals hav ing countv licenses will also have to get state lioenses under the new law Copies of the law and application blanks mav be obtained from the sec retarv of the board at Oorvallis. All applications must be accompanied by the $10 fee, and, in case of registered horses, by the pedigree certificate. Murat't Daring In Battle. I kave read that my grandfather's three tllstingulshing characteristics were high chivalrlc courage, great skill a general and almost unparalleled coolness in the hour of danger. His form was tall, his tread like that of a king, his face strikingly noble, while his piercing glance few men could bear. He had heavy black whiskers and long black locks, which contrasted singularly with his fiery blue eyes. He usually wore a three cornered bat with a magnificent white plume or ostrich feathers. This plume, wltn many other relics, is now In the pos session of . my eldest brother, rrince Murat. My grandfather's dazzling ex terior made him a mark for the ene my's bullets. The wonder is that, be ing so conspicuous, he was never shot down and was rarely wounded. I have read that at the battle of Abouklr he charged with his cavalry straight through the Turkish ranks, driving col umn after column Into the sea.

Passed the Battle Toe Quickly. Will Low, the painter, told this sto ry of the Latin quarter days of Robert Louis Stevenson. Low and Stevenson were great friends in their youth. Their friendship Indeed continued up to the time of the writer's death. "Louis," said the artist, "was no less diplomatic than brave. He could be fiery, and he could also be gracious nd pacific. One night, I rememoer. we sat in a garden in muuuuunre. The red wine hud been flowing pretty freely, and one member of our party got heated and aggressive. Finally some one said a thing that this fight ing chap disliked. As soon as the words were spoken he grabbed up a bottle and hurled it at the others head. It was a strong, true shot and would have hit the mark had not Ste venson sprung to his feet and caught the missile. 'Tut, tut, George, he said to the thrower 'tut, tut! If the bottle is passed so quickly none of us will be able to stand out the evening.' " Poor Thackeray. Sir William Howard Russell's diary for April 18S2, haa this amusing glimpse of Thackeray: "The sportsmen among wnoni l naa the honor to be numbered were of the Winkle order. Thackeray, Dickens, John Beech, Jerrold, Lemon, Ibbotson, were invited, and carriages were re served to Watford. As we were start ing a written excuse was brought from Dickens to be conveyed to Mrs. a. oy Thackeray. The party drove up to tne house, and after compliments ThacK- eray delivered the billet.

SOLD IN TOWN FJ After the fall of Fort Sumter there considerable opposition in the north against taking measures for raisins volunteers for suppressing the rebellion. Even a number of promi ncnt Republicans doubted the exped ienoy of compelling the southern states to remain in the union a mo ment. A movement was Btarted in Now York Oity looking toward the formation of an independent Rovern meut for Manhattan Island. A num ber of New York merchants favored the movement, ,'as they thought the loss of the trade of the ootton states meant fluauoial ruin. Frenando Wood, the mayor of New York, fa vored the movement, and the New York Daily News, edited by Ben wood, a brother of the mayor, was outspoken in opposition to the war measures inaugurated by the govern ment. Friends of the administration however suooeeded in holding a great union meeting at Cooper Institute, and Mayor Wood was induced to pre side. It was at this meeling that Senator Baker, of Oregon, made a speech that made him a prominent tignre iu national atlairs.
