No man .was mote responsible for the failure of measures in 'the last legislature to relieve the; peo ple thai?;: Governor Xrd-:.He - assisted the combine that 'held up' ' the legislature. : For continuation during at least two years more of the abuses and excesses of which the people complain, no man, therefore, was more" responsible than the governor of the state. The;i5cretary;of state took ailfiadingf -part in..theisame en terprise, seeking-i through it the continuance of. the large? uncon stitutional iiloTuinents"oi'-tiis of fice, which the platform on which he .had. been elected .had pledged his party to abolish.' Thus -the combination " Hit the- legislature included the opposition and the perpetuation of all the grossest abuses of officialism that oppress the people. :. : With the aid of the officials who stand at the head of the state govern mens, it succeeded ja all its pur poses. The result is that dur ing these two years there are drawn from a tax-burdened, peo pie immense sums, "from the, pay ment of winch they ought to have been relieved by the legis lature. Oregonian. ' ADMISSIONS OF' DEFENDANT. A crowd of office-holders from Portland, and of friends and de Dcndents of office-holders, has been at Salem for "weeks to defeat the bills' for the reduc tion of salaries, fees,: emoluments and taxes. ? The gang is supplied with money, .'wrung by its system of "working things" from the taxpayers . . to de feat the efforts of the represent atives of the people for retrench ment and reform. It is a. shame less proceeding. " " It is supported by the spirit of faction m the -legislature, that - Mias prevented the .election 01 a senator these many weeks. Of ficial greed has made its" combi nation with this spirit of faction, and the result is this successful conspiracy. It will damn every man connected with it, now and hereafter. And then the ' question may be whether any candidate' calling himself a re publican will be believed ; when ne says he is in favor of reducr tion, economy and retrenchment Wny, indeed, snouia sucn men be believed after this shameful betrayal? . ' This time there Vwere the most positive pledges, attest ed by the most earnest vows. Now they are broken. . Perfidy so outrageous may not expect ne penthe, but Nemesis. From the oppressed taxpayers is drawn the money that is distributed at the capital of the state to continue official profligacy and prevent re duction of taxation. - :. How long can it be supposed the people will stand it? Oregonian. The coquetry ; of Governor Iord and Secretary Kincaid with those who have carried the prac- . r t' t . . . - uces 01 .nignwaymea.-.inio tne legislature continues; but it is less open and more cautious. The people of Oregon elected these two men to their present positions in the expectation that thev .would - occupy - these posi tions and perform their appoint ed duties. Yet there has been an intrigue, with their, consent, it not witn tneir active encour agement, during - the, past two months, to demoralize the legis lature and "hold up" the sena torial election . till the time should come when Iord might perhaps be made senator and Kincaid could 'succeed him as governor.. .. This . accounts . for the action of at least leight. Mem bers of - the -legislature." The supposition that the Lane coun ty -delegation, and members of the Marion county " delegation could act as they , do., without the connivance of Governor Ird and Secretary Kincaid may do for - those who know nothing about practical politics. But such a pretense will mislead no others.- Oregonian. --' Without. ; . the , populists and democrats, the Lord-Kin caid conspiracy never had the slightest chance of success. If Mr. Lord and Mr Kincaid were riot;; to bg ; satisfied with the' offices that" were given them," .: . they ought - not to have asked for them. It. was their doings, in large degree, that, demoralized the legislature.

On that you cau tet your Kig!amps." Allen & Woodward,- - THE STATE AND INTEREST. Paternalism in a government tends to make weaklings of its citizens. .Protection is the pur pose of good government, but this means protection against the wrongful acts of others. No safe government can undertake to make amends to its citizens for their own folly, indolence or ignorance,. It is often difficult to deter mine where wise protection ends and paternalism begins. The question of state interference in the matter of interest rates - for the use of money is a case in point Of course, no one dis putes the right of the state to fix the rate of interest where there is no expressed agreement, but when the government under takes to limit the rate of interest at which parties may agree to loan or borrow, money, the opin ions of statesmen differ. Much may be said on both sides. Gov. Daniel W. Jones, (dem ociat) of Arkansas, sets forth in his message to the legislature, the best reasons that can be advanced, probably, on behalf of state in- tenerence. - tie says: "I recommend that an amend meut be submitted to the peo pie providing that - no ' contract for a greater rate of interest than 6 oer centum Def annuni', made after the adoption of , this amend ment, shall be enforced by any court in this state, . and that this shall apply to all contracts thereafter made in this state, re gardless of the place of payment, and that all laws of the state upon the subject? of usury shall thereafter be without force or ef fect. "Our state is eminently an ag ricultural one. The iarmer is our principal wealth-producer. Upon his , p;r6sperity depends that of the state. '. Our legisla tion should, be: directed and shaped in his interest, and no law of the state should be con tinued in force when found to be detrimental to him. Like other business men, he must some times borrow money to carry on his operations, and he should not be required to pay a rate of interest which leaves no margin for profit to himself. No agn cultural industry Jean afford to pay more thair& pt pent, for the use of mduev fa-fact, that is the limit 6f ' thyalue of money for any iegililctate " business in our state, t&ZpBgt- greater rate ought to be allowed to be con tracted for. The-borrower be ing thus protected, the lender should have equal . protection. He ought, in all equity and good conscience, to have the protec tion of the laws to recover back his money with interest not- ex ceeding this lawful rate. . Usury laws, such as we have, whereby the lerfder loses not only his interest,- batt'his -.mcfiiey also, are unjuskar unreasonable. ' More over,F.they inyite: .perjury and are demoralizing, an'4 . corrupting in their Tende'ncy. ! The very fact of their existence' renders it diffi cult to lower the rate of interest," because of the extra, hazard in curred in lending money. "There are honest men who do not agree with me, but they will be found chiefly among the money-lenders. They can, how ever, take care of themselves, having the means to do so. But legislation of this character is in tended to protect those whose necessities require the borrowing of money for the purposes of carrying, -on legitimate business pursuits, and who : are, on that account, subjected to the cupid ity of avarice. The money lender is a useful citizen, but he adds nothing to : the material wealth of the country. He ought to be content with a rea sonable accretion to his surplus in the way of interest, especially when the laws are such' as to make that certain to him. But a money-borrower in ari ' agricul tural country like ours is a wealth-producer, and he should be the favored one of the law, at least to the extent of being pro tected against having to pay un reasonable interest upon the mon ey he must borrow to produce that wealth. ' - - "Instead of driving money out of the state, as some "may contend, I believe it will have the opposite effect But 'wheth er the one or the other effect is produced, I am quite certain that it is not to the interest; of our people to 7- pay more . than 6 per cent for the use of money, and that their interests will be best subserved by keeping out of the state all money which is of greater value than this." - PEN AND HARfE. 4 'This"" country, ?": says; Ezra Durand, speaking ; from the"; jail of Multnomah county, "is suffer ing front-that gold-adoring, un principled, vicious duck hunter, Cleveland, and his minions.' This'is picturesque and Pennoy eresque. It ought, to move Pen noyer to bail the old man out" remarked ; the Oregonian, to which Portland's mayor pleas antly replies: -Portland.

The amount of time that can be devoted to military instruction in most of these col leges is too small, and the facitf ties are inadequate, to accomplish all that could be desired, but wit$ the very limited Mime allowed, and the means at hand, a great, deal is accomplished toward ttfe making of soldiers. At the Ore gon -Agricultural College;" a- titer ouch drill in the schools of the soldier, the company and ..the. bat talion, (infantry) both in cie and extended order, is given to'l male students. The.U. S. Ariay Drill Regulations lor Infant', Burnham's Duties of Outposts a$d the Guard Manual are studied by a class ot fifty-three of the most advanced students. . A course of lectures upon mili tary subjects is delivered to this class, intended to impart' to thefti informations, upon questions "-'of the organization of troop9, ' admiji istration'of military affairs, disci pline, military law, the employ ment of troops in the enforce ment of theLltfws, battle tactics, and practical field duty, upon' which they can have no actual 41 perience for the want of time antl proper facilities.

It .is the aim of the military' depart ment to give every graduate suffi cient military . instruction and training to enable him to organize and drill a company of infantry, at the least, so that in the event of war, he would be prepared to hold a commission m ' the volun- teers, or in the national guard his state. The military instruction at. t he Oregon Agricultural College is mi i der the charge ot Lieutenant (J. E. Deutler, 11th U. S. Infantry, and the splendid showing made by the cadets, when on dress parade or at battalion drill, is due to his painstaking, methods and thorough instructiori. -As a d sciplinarian, lie is certainly a success. lie possesses the happy faculty, wlncii uiifc-rtuuately cannot be sanl oi all army officers, of being linn without being overbearing, ofbe ing strict without, being abusive, and of commanding the respect of his officers and men without losing his dignity. Lieut. Dentler has seen thirteen vears 6 actual service, having spent the greater portion of that time on the - frontier. During all that ions period, his daily duties have included the drilling and management of troops, and he is, therefore, well equipped for the duties required ot him in his pres eiit position. In 1884 he gradu ated from West Point with honors and was immediately assigned to the 6th infantry, with which regi ment he served seven years, when he was transferred to the 11th in fantry, in which he still holds his commission! As " a reward for long and faithful service, he was assigned by tlio department of war to ms present) position as instruc tor ot military science at the Or egon Agricultural College for a period of four years. He arrived here-February 14th, 1894, and en tered immediately upon the dis charge of his duties.
