Tbera re now 117 clerks at Salem waltlnu on 00 legis lators, moat of them doing nothing aa nsaat, for which they will be paid over 120,00). The following told about the Washington legislature is very readable, and as well, will apply to Oregon ex periences: A woman who went to Olympia after a legislative clerkship writes to the Tacoma Ledger of her ex periences. She soys it only took her IS minutes to learn of the foolishness of her errand and thereupon she determin ed to le.xrn the total number of those who, like herself, had sought Olympia in search of clerkships. It proved a motley throng. There were young men with sisters to educate, fathers with families to support, women deserted by their husbands, and a gir'. who was the sole support of her widowed mother and little sister. Then there were dozens of girls and women who were unable to do heavy work, aa well as the cripples who eoaldonly do 'writing. Business men asked fcr positions ti.a: they might pre vent assignment sales. . From the en treaties, the open button-holing of the members, and the thousand , and one mananvers, that the observing ' eye could detect, one was almost led to be lieve that every needy person in the state was asking for legislative clerk ships. The same kind of a scramble took place at Salem, there being 117 clerks hired to wait on 90 legislators. PAaALTXSD Br As AcctDixr. J H Wolf, well known aa a heavy depositor in the Job bank, is a victim of paralysis, with bnt slender chances of recovery. The stroke is complete both in sensation and motion from bis neck down. It was the result of an accident. Tuesday after noon Mr Woolf and his neighbor, d Sharp, were en route home from town. Near James Cooper's place, three miles west of torn the whiel of the wagon ran into a rot. and Wolf was pitched out, striking the ground on his bead. He was picked np insensible and carried to Mr Cooper's house where he still re mains. After treatment by Dr Lee he regained consciousness, which he still retains. He ran take food, and speaks with some difficulty. His pulse runs from 46 to 50, while at normal it should be 72. H. is about 55 years of age. and is a member of the Masonic fraternity. Oorvaliis Times. Wbat Shall B Dokk. It is an easy thing to tell what should be done, at Salem. Like the newspaper business every body knows how to run the legis lature but the, members. Abolish aJl useless commissions, abolish al! useless boards, repeal the scalp boanty law, en a;t a forcible dairy law, ' enact a good fruit law, set the convicts to work, pass a bill requiring all insurance companies and corporations doing business in this state and escaping taxation to bear their share .of the tax burden. Accept the million acres of government 'and from the government for reclaiming it by irrigation, pass a general appropriation bill limiting every item to an economic al business oasis, make a law prohibit ing the sale of cigarettes. These are some things an exchange advocates. A PBTixrT Pakagkafh.

Manr out of work should heed to five it a chance to cure and it will give them a chance to go to wot k cored. Another adage is: "Hedoeth best, who doeth wen." well, ol course, you want to be well from all sorts of aches, and the best thing to do is to nee the great remedy. He who does so is doing well indeed. Lxr rr Pass. Dawson's delinquent tax bill provides for taxes becoming delin quent on April 1st and October 1st, thus giving tax payers an opportunity to pay in two installments- This is a bill that will be appreciated generally by tax pavers. It wool J be well, though, if it were made to apply to taxes exceeding a aennite amount, taxes lor a dollar or two, anything under $10 at least, shoulj be paid at one time. "Two Legs Bbokcs.' If the Dalles would do like Albany such items as the following would be impossible: "Charles Fowler a boy 10 years old, while coasting down Union-street bill at 4 o'clock Mon day, ran into a cow, breaking bis legs Sunday sight was very cold here, the theme meter registering six degrees be low sero." Coasting is not allowed here , nret tor the reason that our streets are level, and second because we do nol have any. Tiis Crops are looking about the best in the history of the county. The greatest critic might go through the county and he couldn't pick a flaw in the appearance of wheat- As one man says, every kernel seems to have come dd.

Mr J M SUrk and Mr Peter Cook, of' Independence, were to tnis cuv yesterday interviewing some of the business men on the subject of the Independence and Salem railroad. This is better known to Salem people as me independence motor line. ADoat m year or so ago Messrs Stark and Cook with several other gentlemen of Indepen dence associated themselves together as the Independence and Salem Railroad Co, and incorporated with a capital stock of 5100,000 of which 118,000 were subscribed by citizens of that enterpris ing city, but, by reason of the money stringency, the soliciting for subscrip tions was temporarily suspended. The project has been revived and the com pany now asks that Salem subscribe $40,000 towards the scheme. Should this be accomplished the road can be built during the coming spring. States man.

There are tricks in all trades, and some times taffy is on them, An Albany jeweler received a proposi tion from a bicycle firm in which the statement was made that 7000 of the bi cycles were eold last year and most of them througn men in bis line of business. It takes jewelers to sell bicycles, as man ipulating Wheels is a part ot their buil ness. The Man about Town then hap pened into a dreg store. The druggists had just received a proposition from the same bicycle firm asking them to take the agency. They were told that out of 7000 tales last year moet of them had been mauo ny men in their Hue of business. This let the cat out of the bae. and ha was all covered with a mixture of pre varication and taffy. How many others received the same proposition has not oeen tearnea. . A Bars Tnmo.

Mr Walter Moss, roannctv of tbe Calhoun Opera Com pany, and well known by quite a number of Albany people, being a former Webfoot. was recently xaaen in in a very aacidexi manner, in St Louis. A Seattle paper tells about it: He was in a crowd watching a fire when a pretty woman rushed down the stairway of the burning building, and, apparently crazed by excitement, threw herself into his arms and implored him to save ber. Of course lloss attempted to soothe her, and the rest is best told in his own words: "Sne sn caught sight of some one she said she knew and with pro fuse apologies for disturbing me was soon lost in tcecrowa. ononiy atter- ncr de parture a bootblack at my elbow exclaimed 'Yer watch chain's broke roister.' Then I began to take stock. My watch and diamond sparkler were gone, likewise a small roll of bills bom my vest pocket.

As our SVople sul keenly fed the weicrfat of hra-r taxes now. and as none of them are chronic office seeaer, they were quick to registpr them selves as opposing any move to increase taxes for the sole purpose of gratifying the ambition of a few srjfob, hair brained in dividuals.

Eitlor Dtmocret : la treating the above subject, there could be a great deal said, so in order not to oc cupy to much of your valuable space I will come directly to the point. 1 refer to the mistake that one makes at net doing that which they agree to do. I see in your paper an advertisement of a firm by tbe name of F i Cheney Jt Co. of Toledo, O., that agree to give a reward of one hundred dollars for any case of catarrh that Hall's catarrh cure fails to cure. This is a firm that did not do what Usey said in their advertisement they would do. 1 know by experience. I gave their medicine a thorough trial and it not only failed to care, but it gave me no relief whatever, and when I wrote to them for the offered reward they refused to send it. 1 would dvie all my friends in particular and all others in general to let them severe ly rlone- It is wrong in individuals a well a a company. One should be careful about saying 1 will do this or 1 will do this or I will do thai thing, for they might not be aUe to do it. thea some one else would be disappointed if not injured thereby.
