A great deal la being aald about the
Initiative and referendum.- - While a
great .number -of newspapers are dla
euwlng the subject there are those
who think tbeae two articles may be
kept' in- restaurants. It Is claimed
that the sentiment is growing favor
able to the initiative and referendum
throughout the country. An amend
men to the constitution will be sub
mitted to the people this year provid
ing for the passage of a law establish
ing the initiative and referendum sys
tem in this country. ' It Is claimed to
be favored by a majority of the vo;ers
Irrespective of politics. The Evening
Telegram favors the law, as well as
many other papers In the state. The
"initiative" Is defined as giving the
people the power to propose laws and
amendments to the constitution and to
enact oeneject the same; at the pulls,
independent of the legisia&va assembly.
The referendum is define! as giving
the people -the power to demand that

the poisons which
contaminate the life

the activity of the
blood-making glands
and gives the body
an increased supply
of pure, body-build-.ing
blood. It builds
up the body with
sound, healthy flesh
instead of flabby fat,
promotes the appe
tite, feeds the nerves,
and so gives to weak,

ThVman with the scheme that will
produce riches galore foe the "angel"
who will furnsh the money to carry tt
out bobs up frequently during the pro
grew of preparing for a World's Fair.
Senator Mark Hanna, of Ohio, known
UTiiwally to be a man of weaJth and
sagacity could not escape the schema
fiend. A few days ago the senator re
ceived the following letter; "On the
top of Mount Arrarat there is still
preserved burled, amid eternal snow.
Noah's ark, I am org anliing a rotn
pany to dig it out nj bring it to the
I'nUed States." Tou can help me to
make ki of money if you will jgo
into the scheme, because the original
Noah's ark would be the best paying
attraction at the St. Xul World'
Fair.' Up to the present writing Sen
ator Hanna has not invested in the
Noah's ark scheme.
The Portland Commission la having
a hard time with "Its dredging propo
sition. The Taxpayers' league has
confronted the commission with a
solid protest. The leagu say that
1200,00 Is too much and to levy that
amount would place taxes' too high.
The proposed dredging which It is es
timated will require this sum, ex
tends from Portland to CS mles this
side. In summing up the many needed
improvements within the distance
named it is ascertained that not less
than 00,00 wl'J be required to even
put the river In temporary better con
dition; it Is a sort of bridging over for
the time until more substantial Im
provements can be made. At this rate
for temporary navigation It will cost
more money than figures can enum
erate to fix the channel so that' the
inland city may be made a seaport.
A strong effort is being made to get
the postal currency measure through
Congress to supplant the present mon
ey order system. It Is urged by an
advocate of the scheme: " The postal
check currency or. some other plan
should be adopted whereby the trans
mission of money by mail may be ren
dered easy and certain. It is remark'
able that the country should so long
have been "compelled to put op with
the present very unsatisfactory "ar
rangements for sending money by mail
Fusion Republicans n Portland are
giving it out that as a matter of home
pride Pordand will go for Chamber
lain over W. 3 Furnish, just because
he happens to live in the same city
with him. While Portland Is the hub
of the state she also claims to be the
hub of the' Republican party and she
Is expected "to show it in the present
campaign. 1 " "
The Federation of Labor has decid
ed to declare 20 days fast against
fresh meats. On account of the high
prices effected by theyomb!ne on fresh
jir.eat It Is thought that an absten-
jance from meat eating for JO days will
! bring down the prices. ' " ''
Reoprts come from all points In Clat
sop County, and from all over the state
' far as that Is concerneJ, that ths
evidence is abundantly favored for
the succe-ss of the Republican ticket In
the present election.
