Tho Dlea for the steal is well taken, the argniuent against tho use ot tne referendum is bosh aud shows fear in everr line. The PALKDAutK before the Lewis ami Clarke graft was foisted npon the people of Oregon, was opposed to the meitindv to le eimiloved. It saw the hollow mockerr of the Multnomah promises and the methods afterward env ployed Ivid the appearanees of being a nreviouslr deep laid scheme to hood' 4 wink the state at kirge. The bill wa rushed roughslkod over a confiding peo ple by the political gods of the state and wT.h few exceptions. Representatives and Senators viod wiUi each other their effort to become the willing tool to do Portland's dirty scheme of plunder ing the State Treasury. Now the Tla ix dealer is not nor was not opposed te the Lewis and Clarke ex position, but it was and is opposed to the rascally schemes and piomisesput forth by the Multnomah delegation! order to make it appear that the inter ests of the tax-pavers would be looked after in taxing corporators like individ uals are taxed. The whole sheme conceived brought forth and carried out has been intended to make the rich richer and the poor poorer so far as the direct issue of taxation and the benefit to be derived are concerned. And then the methods employed to still blindfol the public at large bv the Portland boomers in a disgiace to the state and an insult to honest labor. The very week the bill passed, Port laud real estate boomers sent out free transportation to the leaders of labor and socialistic organizations to proceed to Portlaud and there they were wined and dined and made happy with a little chink, a:id while in this condition many of the leaders of the various organiza tions sold out honor and principle and stultified themselves before the public by attempting to commit their various or ganizations to the boodler's graft. Several of the labor or organizations and four out of five of the citizens of the Southern part of Oregon are opposed to the scheme and only want a chance to attempt to defeat the bill and rebuke the boodlers. This office is deluged with letters asking for petitions to refer the matter to the next general election, but so far we have not made any effort to supply petitions to Douglas, Curry, Coos, Jackson and Josephine counties. And while we denounce the scheme of plunder snd "" believe that the most damnable methods known to base politicians to foist the matter on the publie was used ; and that the tax-payers were directly robbed by the Multnomah combine with Portland as the center, yet there are times when the only thing a man can do is to calmly fold his arms and al low injustice to be done. And this is a case when we are forced to let the band wagon roll along without clapping hands and giving vent to a single hurrah. The Plaixdealek knows how it feels when the hearse moves along to the mournful notes of the dead march, but thank God for all his mercies the feast set before us at this Oregon wake is not good old fashioned republican buzzard for though our party had a majority, they were joined by the democratic members and aH joined hands to plunder so that the critter slaughtered for ttie feast was a mule with wings, and for Oregon's fu ture welfare we shut our eyes and hold our nose while the mess goes down and hope fervently that when the hybrid has got through with us that we will still retain our old Panama hat and a pair of last years suspenders. The Fair has been extensively boomed and the eye of the United States is turned toward onr Sunsetland. To now defer or defeat the steal would be to set back the state ten years and Oregon would become the laughingstock of the world. It sometimes happens that all that a man can do is to shut bis mouth and just at this time the best thing to do is to shut it and keep it shut, and after a few days of sulking no doubt we will all feel better and even though we may not 1 able to carry the air yet we may all join in the retain: Oh Oregon !

The following is taken from the com plete published report of Koch's paper : "It is a matter of agricultural and vet erinary science to determine now lar milk infected with tulierculosis is detri mental to cattle, and what measures should be taken to combat the danger, whhth perhaps exists.

These gentlemen are en thusiastic over tlie results achieved by the Association with hist year's crop. Thev think this is all that saved the more fitting not to lay out a sum of this kind for something wtdeh is far from being established, but to apply it rather to such measures as must with certainty lead to decline of human tuberculosis."

Koch denies post i vol v that tcre is danger of transmission of the disease to humans from the meat and milk of animals, and does not admit unreserved ly that infected milk is detrimental to cattle, saying that "perhaps" there is danger from this source.

It is earnestly to be hoped that no good citizens of Oregon will give aid or countenance to the mooted project for a referendum on the Lewis and Clark ap propriation. The object of the referen dum is to safeguard the publk; -welfare by putting in the people's hands a check upon vicious or ill-considered legisla tion. To interpose this check upon measures fully considered by public opinion for months before the Legisla ture met, and demonstrably in line with material progress of the state, would be only to prevert its use and bring it into discredit. The real service of the referendum, indeed, is Dot so much in its actual as in its possible use. Not in Its applica tion, but in it reserve power, lies its effectiveness for good gov rnment. The Legislature knovre that every vicious meaeare it enacts must run the gauntlet of the referndum ; .ind in that knowl edge is the guarantee of considerate ac tion. Brt, if it be said that the referen dum should I; invoked, in order to demonstrate its power, that also is need less. Its power is unquestioned. It is not a theo-y t be tested. It is a simple fact, about w hose rxTptence r.o doubt whatever exists. It should be used with di-jcretion. To abuse it will only react to its discredit. Even if it were thought necessary to invoke the referendum in order to show its efficacy, tin Lewis a:;d Clark Cen- A movement has crrstalized and has been applied in a practical manner by the Norfolk, Portsmouth and Newport railroad to do away with unmarried men in every department of the road and sev eral prominent railroad officials of other roads propose to follow the example set bv that jerkwater road. Considerable merriment has been the result so far, but if all the railroads gave encourage ment to such a movement, a vast amount of good would result and this would not on'y be true in railroad op eration, but in all the busy enterprises, if the same method were adopted. The man who has a home and family to pro vide for, is, nine times out of ten, more careful and painstaking in his duty than man who is unmarried and is sup posed to carry his family under his hat. It is the duty of every able bodied man, with the average amount of gumption, to provide a home for a woman. Of course this does not apply to fools, phy sical wrecks, drunkards, cigarette fiends or trifling, lazy, no-account men. All such should be transported to some country where it would le impossible for their generation to curse the earth. The only hope there is for the United States is in the number of happy homes filled with children and the parents kept hard at work providing for their need. Bryan Will Bolt. W. J. Bryan has informed hi 1 intimate friends in New York city, says the. Tri bune, that if the gold plutocratic Demo crats triumph in the next National Democratic Convention he will lead his followers from the hall and nominate an independent Democratic ticket with a platform that will enlist the eupport of the radicals. "The friends of Mr. Eryan," said on oi tne rseoraskan s coadjutors, "are keeping the fires of . true democracy burning on the altar of Democracy, There is something worse than defeat. It is a sacrifice of principles. Now, j don't make any mistake. Not all the ftemocrats who Toted the regular ticket in 1896, and again in 1000, were in favor of all the things in the platform, Imt the platform was nine-tenths right, and should have had the support of every Democrat." A New Y'ork special of Tuesday's date says: Failing in their efforts to have their new superintendent removed, the expert trained nurses of New York Eye and Ear Infirmary have left the institu tion m a body. Dr. Richard M. Derby, executive Eurgeon of the hospital, said that their act not only seriously crip pled the infirmary temporarily, but that after their departure it was found that records of patients had been destroyed, lotions mixed, glasses and bottles disar ranged and the keys of the instruments concealed. The strike of the nurses placed the institution in a helpless state for a time, and it was necessary to ask assistance from other hospitals, in order to attend to the 57 patients who were in the wards. Recently it was thought desirable to get a new superin tendent of nurses, and Miss Stewart a graduate of the training school at the Presbyterian Hospital, was employed. The subordinaies did not take kindly to t he change of rule. of every man working on the Southern Pacific railway, and affiliated with the United Brotherhood of Railway Em ployes, are in the course of preparation and will be presented to tha manage ment within three or four months. Brotherhood employes on the California Northwestern railway will make de mands in March or April. Delay is being taken on the Southern Pacific that work of organization in the brotherhood may bo pushed until there are few, if any, of the employes of the road who are not members, and then a united front can be presented to the railway company. It is expected that this condition will have been attained by June at the latest. The work begun only recently is being directed bv President George Estes of the brotherhood, who has forty-one assistants actively engaged at different points on the Southern Pacific system. They have sent in encourag ing reports, and the officers of the or ganization are confident that, when schedules and wage scales are presented to the management within the time mentioned, the situation will be such that there will be no alternative for the railway company but to grant the de mands. It is too early to learn whether the refusal of the company to raise the wages of its employes as asked for wuld result in a strike. Along some portions of the svsteui it is said that there is a sentiment favorable to a strike, but President Estes declares that the ques tion is one on which no determination has leen reached. absolutely tho important pro: science. late.-: iem of with rrd en every idem medical Coles Valley News.

I congratulate you and the business men of Roseburg on this action, and take this occasion to say that I think yom idea in arranging as you contemplate to take care of intending settlers upon their arrival at Roseburg is the most important action you can take just at this time.

It now remains for us to take care of them iu such a manner ujwn their arrival that they will be favorably impressed with the country and the people, and decide to locate amonsrst us.

Today, Senator Mason, whose term expired, also talked an unimportant bill to death, but in his valedictory he lectured the Senate for its uiiliuiiied debate, which allows bill t le killed in that manner, and he alK made a final plea for the freedom of the Filipinos. As all of the important supply bills had passed before the two houses took a recess this morning, no legislation was necessary and none was attempted. The bills which has passvl and reached the stage of enrollment were all signed by President Roosevelt, who with mem hers of his Cabinet occupied the Presi dent's room in the Senate wing of the Caj itol. This biennial visit of the President to the Capitol is one of the features of a closing Congress. The Senate was called to order at 10 o'clix-k for the hist sitting of the Fifty seventh Congress, but busines- did not begin until some time later.

It was noticeable, too, that the senators who have been most bnsilv and most continuously oc- cu; ied in the closing days of the session were among the first to respond to their names. Al.ison, chairman f the committee tn appropriations, ma Ie a statement re tarding the amount of money appropri sted by the present Congress, as cm tared with the appropriations of the Fifty-sixth Congress. The total appro priation by the present Congress, he stated, was f I,.V4,1 05,51-, as compared ith fl.4iO.4Sr 4SS for the Fiftv-sixth Congress. It was a curious but neces sary thing, he said, to make this com parison more in detail than by a mere statement of aggregates. The firtt aud most important items included in this statement of the present Cougress is the appropriation of $o0, 130,000 for th j Pan ama Canal, which, he said, aocrumt for nearly one-half of the increase. There is also, lie sail, an aggregate appropriation for the Postotlice Icart mect of f 15.t,401.54t for the next fical year, as eompared with f ll,0i0,XJ for the current year, making a difference oi more tharrf 15,l00,000 in exee.-s of the appropriations of the last congress f--r j the tal service. This, he explained, arises from the enormous incrase in ex (xrnditures caused by increased postal business. Then, too, he said, the rural free delivery serv ice required large sums. Then was, he said, a smaller deficiency than there had ln-en in many years in the prstal receipts as compared with the expenditures. He called attention to tho fact that the last Congress passed no river and har bor bill. In the first session of thij Congress, he said, Ji7,000,000 was ap propriated for rivers and harbors, Iu ad dition to which f'JO.OOO.OOO was appro priated in the sundry civil bill for carry ing out contracts. He said that while it appears that the appropriation.' of this Congress have been' largely in ex cess f those of the last Congress, the of three Mount Mood. his lxlief that lie could safely scalo the wall at night. He made known his in tentions to the guard inside the wall. impson, and about 11 o'clock at night Sunday, he went around to the north side of the enclosure, put a ladder agaiust the wall, climbed up, and then transferred his ladder and climbed down the other side. He went all througl: the shois and the yard, aud then clirnlied back on the wall. He went in to one f the guardhouses and took the guard's hat and overcoat, and then left the wall and went lack to the office Here he locked up the clothing he ha l taken, and on Monday morning report ed to the Governor. It is said that the Governor ordered the discharge of tl guards, at once, but that he afterward countermanded the order and gave the' men a hearing today. McPherson and Simpson lnith told of the occurrence, and the guards were given an opjHjrtunity to cross-examine their accusers or to make any statement thev wi.-hel. Thev had li. tie to say. except that they had perhai dozed a little, and cl.iitiu-I they wer not dert- licl in their duty. It is understood that friends of the two n;en interceded in their behulf, urgiag that the humili ation cf discovery w as sufficient punish ment, but the t iovernor would not see it that way. He held that the disci 1-Y.i.e of the institution required the im mediate dismissal of any guard found lacking in vigilance, an.l would listen to no .lea. "If you were my owa broth ers," he was rerfrted to Lave said, "you would have to go." It is quite certain that the nrh-s w ith w hich Tracy and Merrill did their dead ly work were taken into the prison shops by some crson who climbed the wall at night. At that time there were no night guards on the wall, and only one inside the inclosure. Now there are two on the wail and one inside.

We are like house ( Lints: We need a change of soil now and then to be re planted. New scene, new ex periences. new f urrouD-iings a change of climate, dry air instead of moisture, sunshine in place of cloud. This is sometimes essen tial to health. There are conditions near at hand that are better than Euroje can offer. Take a month or two in California. Plant vourseif for a time where there" are no irritations, where the hotel is beyond criticism, the land sca(H' pleaing, and where warm suany weather invites to walks and drives. Pure and dry sir, and the increased electric influences of sunshine are vastly helpful. You can make this trip at very little expenK. and enjoy a rile over the seme Siskiyou and Shasta mountains, which, at this time of the year with their snow- coverod, peaks, are unsurpassed for their grandeur.
