ffce mmiL OOKRB8POND1NOB FRIDAY JANUARY 21, 1887. 'Stsaoo says wigwag,'1 and the legis lators machine mors off smoothly un eV the direction of s moil experisneed The passage of House bill, No, 119, introduced by Crook, of Coot and Car ry, would ba an outrage. Let il ba baried. Saaator Dawson baa introduoad a bill to ores to a board of railroad oommts aiotra. This is of doubtful policy. Tby bars generally baan failure. Tba prataoM of tba Oregonum thai il daaa not know tba politiea of Dr. Joaephi ia diaeraditabla to tba bead, (though not of tba heart, )of tba editor of that paper. Saaator Irrine baa introduced a me ssorisl to Congress aaking that body to taka all lawful means to tid this atate of ike Chinaaa and protecting againet their importation. M. Stewart, Republican, baa aleated U. S. Senator from Neva da. Ha waa ia the Senate under tba Grant regime, but sunk out of sight at the and of his term. The inter-state commerce bill passed the U. S. Senate last Friday. The vote waa 43 in favor and 15 against the bill. Senators Mitchell and Dolpb voted for it, bat rather under protest. We fee) safe in saying that we n fleet the sentiment of a large proportion of the people of Lion county when we say thai tba bill to abolish the Immigration Board should be passed unanimous!?. II II Sl i I I L Mr. Hansard has introluoed a bill to repeal the law giving state aid to the State Fair. This is a move in the right direction. The Legislature should do feat all appropriations of pnbiic funds for measures of doubtful policy. The Governor baa appointed II or. B. Clow, of Dslias, to ba Superintend ant of the State Penitentiary. The sp pointmant will commend itself to all who desire to sea a clean administration Of affaire at the penitentiary. Senator Ailen,of Polk,haa introduoad aa amendment to the divorce law, pro Tiding that one year's deeertion shall ba cause for divorce instead of three as bow provided. Of course this should ba defeated, as oar laws are already liberal enough. If a fair square apportionment of members to the Legislature inures to the Republicans, no be it, let us have it. If it should be of advantage to the Democrats, so likewise let us have it, but by all means let then he no gerry mandering. The proposition to levy a tax of ore fifth of one mill on all the taxable property of the state to make tuition at the State University free is a more in Ihe interest of a very few parents in the state who are financially able to send their children and board them at that school. It will inure to the benefit of a Tory few. We feel impelled by a sense of public doty to warn Democratic members of the Legislature that lobby or third heoae enesabere are attempting to form a grand combination of members from osrtein localities for the purpose cf making liberal appropriations to bnild mountain wagon roads, bridges and a number of other enterprises, slate aid to all of which finds no warrant what ever in the constitution of the state. Many Republican members would willingly squander the $382,000 now la the treasury in order to gain a party advantage. Look out for jobs for there are aaaay of them on foot. There is nothing obeering in the tsat that baa come to light in Salem tbst many members of ths Legislature seem to be willing to support any kind of a measure in order to get support for their own pat measures It is feared that in this way agreements have been al ready en t ere 4 into by which the large surplus in the treasury may be appro priated to build bridges snd wagoD roads throughout the state. We fear the safety of the state treasury will binge upon the veto power. We feel confident that if the matter should reach that point, Governor Pennoyer will ba fully equal to the occasion, and endear himself to the people snew by Tetoing every such measure. Linn county has been settled over forty years, and yet her people were compelled to forego bridge facilities on the Santiam rivers for thirty years of that time, simply because the county was not able to build them. Now,how- eer, she has spent ia the last 10 years. $50,000 in bridging that stream in various places, and during all the time these bridges were so badly needed it never onee entered the minds of her citizens to ask the Legislature to ap propriate public funds to build such bridges. There ia no place in the state where a bridge would accommodate so many people as a bridge at Albsny,but ear citizens have not thought of atktng atate aid to build one. But if the poli cy of aiding in building Iridges is to be adopted by the state we would suggest that our representatives ask such aid We believe the precedent a bad one fraught with unnumbered evils to the people, bat if the Legislature launches out on such a profligate course,tben let us all have a itbare. The Orngonian wants Dr. Joaephi re tained by the present administration as Superintendent of the Insane Asylum. Of oourae. All the Republicans in the state want him retained. Bat none are so uncandid as the Oragonian in giving a reason therefor. That paper aaya it doea not know what Dr. Joseph i's poll- tics are, but it would have him kept there because he Is a faithful official. Now, tha claim of thai paper that it does not know what tbo Dr's politics are ia sheer invention. Tha Ortyonian might induce the people to believe that it is nnoandid and unfair In the treat ment of publio questions. It would not require muoh proof to induce the people te believe that that paper would no,on all occasions, allow an insignificant obstacle lke the truth to stand ia its way to secure ita ends. But one thing tha people will not believe, and that is that Scott is ignorant. No,Soott koowa as certainly what tha Dr'a politics are aa ha doaa the politics of Senator Mitchell, Simon and other well-known leaders of the Republican party. But it looks vary muoh to as like the Dr. mast go. BBTa?!WSaS The report of the Superintendent of Ihe Insane Asylum for the two years ending November 30th, 1886, shows that on the 80th of November, 1884, there were 868 inmates to the Asylum. The number of admissions during the two years ending Novem ber 30th, 1886, waa 368. The num ber of discharges, 224, the number of deaths, 66, and tha number of escapes, 7. The whole number treat ed waa 734, of whom 615 were males and 219 females. Number in Asylum November 30th, 1886, was, malea 298, females 139, making a total of 437, being an increase of C9 in two years. During the last two years the attte has leceived $15,379.24 from the territory of Idaho for keep ing their Insane. The cost of keeping the Insane is reported to be $2.71 per week per capita. The Superintendent recommends that the building be en larged aa before another aessloo of the Legislature rooms for 100 more pa tient will be needed. satvrwsu klkcte. The following U. S.

The new era in the Senate ia tha era of msnuoerriog aod of aelf-eeeking in politics. Undsr it, tha prises are lees for men of superior tslent than for those with a capaoity for intrigue. Steadily the standard of capacity and of character has been lowered. The extant to which money hss bought its way in to this body has become a byword. From this praotiee New England haa, fortunately, been exempt, except in one er two cases in Rhode Island and Con necticut, which, it is encouraging to know, da not now exist. Bat the power of money ia increaaingly felt in other quarters. The New York Sena torahip threatens to go to the longest pane this year. Michigan haa just agreed to have two millionaires instead of one in the Senate. In Illinois Charles B. Farwell leada in tha race id Robert T. Lincoln ia nowhere, mainly on the ground that Mr. Farwell haa a Urge fortune and Mr. Lincoln haa none. Nevada gives her prize, of course, to the man who pays the most money for it. The California Senator- ship ia in the market, and the only ohanee of the defeat of an incompetent man who ia rich is that some other man who is richer may offer more. These are the successors of statesmen. Some days ago the following tele graphic correspondence took place be tween the New Yorx World snd Gov ernor Pennoyer. It explains itself: New York,Jso. 13th. To the Governor of Oregon : Kindly telegraph st our expense your opinion of the probable effect on the country of Uonkling s return to the Senate. The World. To which he made the following re ply : Salem, Or., Jan. 13th. To the IFerW, New York : It is my impression that Roscoe Conkling is a man who never has been or never can be the fcubserrient tool of coroorata power. Such men, in tha present con dition of affaire in our country, should be placed in omctsl position by the peo ple. Sylvester Pennoyex, Governor of Oregon. One of the things that the Demo cratic party is "here for" ia to relieve the people of unnecessary taxation, which it has rightly declared to be un just taxation. Neither the followers of Morrison nor ot Randall should forget this. Representative Henry's bill to in crease the school tax to five mills is a measure that would benefit all the peo ple of the state. We see no reason why it ahould not pass and we believe it will. Mabel. Everything quiet over here, lots of rain and pretty high atari lately. Christmas and New Years day passed off quietly. An oyster supper at John Smith's Christmas eve., and a basket dinner at Uncle Tim's Christmas day. Riggs A Son have about half a mil lion feet of floe yellow fir logs in their boom, with about aa many more In the stream above. Tha logs ware put in by Samuel Smith for Crawford & Full ar to take to the mouth of the Mohawk, but they failed to take them, so they were turned over to the other tatties, J. L. Stewart and family are down In the valley visiting Mrs. Stewart's father, George Huston, and other ra'a tlves. Araaea Smith has been hauling lum bar to build him a bouse. Mr. Conghill is also getting a bill for the same pur pose. K. F. Bradford is having a bill sawed out for a barn. Mr. A. Y. Bsnta iatends building a dwelling house next summer, and G W. Riggs is preparing to build a barn. Uncle Joe Stewart also ex pacta to erect a dwelling house, so Mabel is en the improve, but than lumber is cheap here and people can aflbid to build as it don't cost much. Well tha Legislature is in session sad everybody will be interested in the proceedings, I suppose, especially their action on the matter of assessment and taxation. I see that some favor assess ing a money tax Instead of labor on the roads. This would work a very great hardship on a great many persons in tha country, ss they can work on the roads and hardly miss tha time, when it ia bard for a men many tissts to raise the money. I think there ought to be a change in the school law with regard to the qualification of voters, ss I think the law requiring man to pay taxes in order to be entitled to vote conflicts with the constitution of the stale, end I know that it woika a hard ship on some districts where a great portion of the land ia owned by men who live in town.and the resident pop ulation can't tax them to build school housea or kelp support schools. The Mongolian pheasant problem doesn't trouble as ver here yet, la any great extent, though I did hear thst one had been seen in the neighborhood s short time ago. The game law ought to ba either emended, or repealed, which 1 think would ba beat for, as long as men live in tha foot hills where deer sre plenty in winter, they will kill them, law or no law, and those who make a of going into tba mountain killing them just tor their hides who ought to be punished oan't be got at, very well, nnleas trey tell on themselves, which they would not be apt to do, if there wss danger of being punished.

Action of the New York State Board of Health, Under the direction of tbo Now York State Board of Health, eighty-four different kinds of baking powders, embracing all tho brands that could bo found for aalo in tha State, wore submitted to examination and analysis by Prof. 0. F. Chakdixb, a Mem ber of the State Board and President of tho Hew York City Board of Health, aaaiatod by Prof. Edwam 0. Lots, tho well known late United States Government chemist. The official report thowi that a large number of tho powders examined were found to contain alum or lime j many of them to such an extent aa to render them seriously objectionable for use in tho preparation of human food. Alum was found in twfntyiine sample. This dreg if em ployed in baking powder to cheapen their coat Tho presence of lime is attributed to tho impure cream of tartar of com merce used in their manufacture. Such cream of tartar was also analyzed and found to contain lime and other impurities, in some samples to the extent of 03 per cent of their entire weight All the baking powders of tho market, with the single excep tion of " Royal" (not including tho alum and phosphate powders, which were long since discarded as unsafe or inefficient by pru dent housekeepers) are made from the impure cream of tartar of commerce, and oonsequently contain lime to a corresponding extent. The only baking powder yet found by chemical analysis to bo entirely free from lime and absolutely pure is tho " Royal" This perfect purity results from the exclusive use of cream of tartar specially refined and prepared by patent processes of the N. Y. Tartar Co., which totally remove the tartrate of lime and other impurities. Tha cost of this chemically pure cream of tartar is much greater than any other, and on ac count of this greater cost is used in no baking powder but the "RoyaL" Prof. Love, who made the analyses of baking powders for tho New York State Board of Health, aa well as for tho Government, says of the purity and wholesomeness of "Royal": "I have tested a package of 4 Royal Baking Powder' which I purchased in the open market, and find it composed of pure and wholesome ingredients. It it a cream of tartar powder of a high degree of merit, and does not ! contain either shun or phosphates or any injurious substances. "E.G.
