THE MAIN ISSUE.
LANDS
Tim legislature meets next Monday.
Nine-tenths of the talk and gossip
about tho coming session has so far
been centered on the contest for
Fpeaker between Vawter and Davey.
Ilxcept for the blood-stirring always
Incident to anything like a race, that
contest is of little real interest to the
people.
What is of practical interest is
first, that not a mass of green, little
considered laws be dumped upon tho
State but that the few necessary re
form or corrective measures he thor
oughly discussed, adopted or rejected;
tad, second, that every safeguard bo
put up to insure clean and economical
administration of state affairs, and im
partial and effective enforcement of
tfae laws now on the statute hooks.
The last is a hundred times the
most Important duty.

PURE FOOD.
The pure food law is now in force
ad It is going to be strictly enforced,
according to Secretary Wilson.
The labels on all canned and bottl

tents of the package. Manufacturers
and dealers have until next October
to use up the labels on hand, but if
the old label does not show the eon
tents a paster must be put on the
package which will show It
Manufacturers and dealers who
brazenly defy the law, and there are
some who have announced such in
tention, will be the first who will
feel the "big stick," says Secretary
Wilson.
No more colored timothy chaff can

The high waters are receding and
all danger of damage in Oregon City

the upper river and 24 feet on the
lower river, which is a fall of 1 foot

er river from the high water mark of
Monday, which was the highest for
four or five years.
The locks on the West Side will

tories ate in operation and no work

The total amount of taxes to be
raised in Marion county this year Is
$257,100, an increase of $73,000 over
190C. The total amount in Clacka
