NEW LAWS OF THE STATE.
At the end of ninety days from ad
journment of the Legislature of 1905,
when the laws enacted at that session
are going into effect, nothing has de
Teloped to Indicate that there has
been placed upon the statute-books
any law which will be harmful to the
material or moral advancement of the
commonwealth, says the Oregonian
On the contrary, a review of acts
passed shows that a number of new
acts 'promise to promote the indus
trial welfare of the state and raise
the standard of public morals. Per
haps the practical operation of the
laws may develop many defects, but
at this time it would appear that there
Is much less cause than usual for
comments upon the evil consequences
of sessions of the Legislature. For
the good record, if It ultimately proves
to have been good, credit is no doubt
due in a measure to these influences
The absence of Senatorial contest, a
minority faction strong enough' to
hold down the faction that orgaiized
the Legislature, the referendum pow
er ready for the use of the people if
unwise legislation were passed, and
a Democratic Governor anxious to ve
to any measure that would not be ap
proved by the people.
One mistake the Legislature has
certainly made and this the people
have undertaken to correct by the fil
ing of a referendum petition at'Sa
em yesterday. In defiance of protests
and warnings, the Legislature passed
an appropriation bill containing items
that could not stand upon their merits
and the people may set that act aside
by their votes In June, 1906, thereby
saying to this and future Legislatures
that the representatives of the people
must not misrepresent the wishes of
tbeir constituents. It will cost the
state not less than $100,000 to estab
lish the principle that every appro
priation must stand upon its own
merits. Those who voted for the ob
jectionable appropriation bill must
bear the responsibility for the ex
pense to the state.
Among those acts of the Legisla
ture wnicn wm tend to aid the mate
rial development of the state are:
The law requiring one railroad com
pany to transport the cars of another
company whose lines connect with
the lines of the first, and at rates
which shall be reasonable; the law
granting Government the power to
lower the waters of Klamath and ad
jacent lakes; the law creating the of
fice of State Engineer, appropriating
money for hydrographic and typo
graphic surveys, and authorizing the
condemnation of water rights where
needed for Government reclamation
projects; the pure food law, discour
aging the sale of any but first-class
dairy products; the law appropriating
money to defray the expenses of farm
ers' institutes; the establlshmen: of
timber and stone testing at the State
University.
Among the laws which promise to
improve public morals are these: The
law making it a misdemeanor to sell
liquor to minor females and permit
them to be In any place where such
liquors are sold or served; the laws
creating juvenile courts, providing for
parole of convicted persons, author
izing Judges to impose indeterminate
sentence and making corporal punish
ment the penalty for wifebeating; the
law appropriating money for the aid
of institutions caring for wayward
girls; the law which practically raises
the age of consent to 18 years; the
law making it a felony for a man to
live in or to solicit for a house of
ill-fame. Other acts, which directly
affect neither the material nor moral
welfare of the state, but which seem
worthy of commendation, are the law
placing stringent regulations upon the
operation of automobiles, the hunter's
license law, the tax commission law,
the ticket-scalping law, and several
laws relating to proceedings in Cir
cuit and Probate Courts.
o -
says, "will be opened, complete in
every department, on June 1, 1905, the
date fixed by law for the formal open
ing." While the world has had prom
ises of this sort heretofore from the
chiefs of great fairs, all were brok
en. It was found Impossible In many
Instances to have all exhibits ready
and the construction work completed
on schedule time, though the opening
took place just the same.
In the present iustance there is a
good prospect that the word of prom
ise will be kept to the hope as well as
to the ear. The Lewis & Clark fair,
It is safe to predict, will be finished
at the stipulated time. The people
who enter on the opening day, June
1, will see the exposition complete in
every particular. Portland will de
serve great crodit if this forcast
should turn out to be true. It is on
the home city that the credit or the
discredit of an exposition chiefly falls.
The Oregon metropolis has worked
vigorously and intelligently In get
ting up Its exposition, and it will de
serve the success which it is likely
to meet
The Lewis and Clark centennial
merited a celebration In some con
spicuous way, and It has seamed to
the persons who were In charge of
the plan of observance that the ex
position idea would be the best way
of commemorating it As President
Goode takes pains to point out, this
"exposition is Intended primarily to
acquaint the American people with
the resources and potenttaltles of the
vast extent of country constituting
the Pacific West' Oregon, Washing
ton and Idaho, are communities which
have vast possibilities in the way of
development To a larger degree
than the states of the Atlantic sea
board they will be benefitted by the
Asiatic trade, which is still in its pre
liminary stage. Everybody should
take a trip to Portland, should visit
the Lewis & Clark exposition, and
should get acquainted with a region
which will have a powerful Influence)
in the country's political and social
affairs In the coming time. St. Louis

"I very often lifted heavy weights but
have since regretted having done so, as
the result was that I atralned my back
and ever after had more or leaa trouble
from that dull aching pulu across my
loins and other symptoms of kidney com
pliant. In some way Donn's Kidney rills
were brought to my notice and the first
time I went to tbwn I dropped Into a
drtg store and Inquired about them. I
was told they were highly recommended
and advised to give them a trial. I did
so, And while I did not follow the treat
ment as regularly as I should have done,
being a poor hand to take any kind or
medicine, the benellt derived from their
use stamps them aa a remedy which acts
fully up to the representations made for
It."

THE LEWIS AND CLARK IS READY
Hon H. W. Goode, president of the
Lewis & Clark Exposition tells the
country that it will be ready at the
appointed time. "I have pleasure in
giving official assurance that the Lew
is and Clark centennial exposition," he
The people of Oregon City and
Clackamas County are urged to see
to it that their names go on the enu
merator's books for the state census.
In an editorial the Oregonian says:
Here is something that all parties
in Oregon, republicans, democrats,
populists, prohibitionists, open-town,
closed-town people every one can
join in, and will be very foolish not
to Join in. This numbering of the peo
ple Is not ordered to support any one
man's pride or vainglory. No risk is
attached to it Just a good, common
sense proposition for all. If law Is
needed for it there it is to Justify It,
and every good citizen, young or old,
Is bound to take Interest enough to
see that his or her name goes down In
the enumerator's book. Estimates of
the result are wide enough apart to
make it interesting for any who may
be speculatively Inclined.
"There are no knowing ones to get
ahead of their fellows. Some think
Oregon's rate of Increase is better
than Washington's. Our neighbor's
on Puget Sound scoff at the notion.
The farmer will get a longer price the
better settled is his district. Town
and country alike refuses to accept
the idea of race suicide in Oregon,
place and people are too healthy in
body and mind for that. Figures will
test that, among many other things.
Each city and town wants to show
that its pretensions to growth are
better founded than its neighbor's. As
THREE cmfwyp cmfw
for Portland much is at stake. On
population, and especially on rate of ,
Increase, depends whether many of i
this year's visitors, seeking new I
homes, new business, will decide to j
stay, or pass on from us to pastures J
new. On such action hangs the ver-
diet whether the fair is to be blessing !
or Injury to us. i
"Stuffing and padding returns has
been heard of before of course not
In Oregon. What we want is the
truth, but the whole truth. Ready re
sponse on the part of the people will
make the census-taker's work easy
and rapid. Let us all help.
"One more point: Many believe that
Oregon is entitled to another congress
man. Let us put ourselves in the
way to secure one. Much may hang on
that. This is one of the times when
Just numbers count, not character,
or acquirements, or possessions.
Therefore, again, let us all see to it
that every one is counted."
o
Dr. A. E. Sommer, Mayor of Oregon
City, has said openly and, according
to his own statement, has twice sent
word to District Attorney Schuebel,
of Clackamas County, that if gambling
Is allowed to go on at Mllwaukie, he
will throw Oregon City wide open and
advertise it as such. What's sauce
for the goose is sauce for the gander,
in Mayor Sommer's opinion, and,
though elected on a platform of closed
town, he will take radical measures
to force a closed county all around.
