The Dalles, Oregon. A TOUCH OF DESP01ISM. It has got-to be a mixed question -whether Mr. Pennoyer cr the other ninety gentlemen who sit in the state house constitute the legislature. Those who were elected as senators and repre sentatives are impressed with the belief that they are the lawmaking power, but the governor baa an entirety different notion. The freedom with which he is wsing the veto power would signify that he hasn't much faith in the ability of the legislators to discern guo J from evil. Possibly the legislature may return the oompliment by a display of sufficient serve to override the governor's vetoes, and put their legislation- into operation in spite of gubernatorial objections. The exercise of the veto power - is at best a dangerous constitutional preroga tive. It is a relic of monarchical gov ernment uneuited to our republican in stitutions. It was adopted, however, as a safeguard against haaty and ill-considered legislation, and if wisely used may hve a salutary effect. But this author ity was not bestowed upon the executive apartment for the purpose of affording an opportunity for an arbitrary exercise f one-man power, or to enable the chief executive officer to be an obstruction to progress. The most important legisla tion of this session has already run against the veto snng. The world's fair hill and the militia bill were scuttled in the governor's office. The amended as sessment law may possibly share the same fate. If it goes on at this rate, the people will begin to ask, themselves, "What are we at?" and will wonder what is the use of having a legislature, when we have a governor who assumes all the functions of the legislative de parturient. It is about time for the legis lature to get in and assert itself as an in dependent branch of the state govern ment. Wyoming, North Dakota, anil Mon tana failed to elect senators yesterday. The populists seem to be using the power for deadlock deteminedly for weal r woe. -' The vote on the mortgage tax law in the senate discloses the fact that Eastern Oregon, Multnomah county and a few alley counties were m favor of the re peal of the measure. It was not polit ical in any sense. Senators Alley and Veatch voted against the repeal. Eu gene Guard. Where was Cogswell? Eastern Ore gon has these three branded. They are known as obstructionists and are against the public interest, even if they are its servants. From the ureS'nt coium-ms nnthino in to be expected, and as to the next noth ing can be safely predicted. Bnt cer tain it ia that the canal must be con structed under American control, and that at no distant day. It will not be done as a corrupt political job, but as" a great and necessary national measure. The demands of commerce and of na tional protection alike demand it. The trend of the world' political forces will rive our country to the work. Let our statesmen take care that the necessity for the accomplishment of the work shall be duly recognized. Delay mny prove most dancerons. In Arkansas the senate has just de feated a bill providing for depositing the state funds in bonded hanks, in of-- der to secure interest on the same for the benefit of the state, and the recent failure of a bank at Lincoln, Neb, which held a large amount, of state funds under such a law, raises the question whether it is prudent to risk the loss of the principal in order to ee cure the interest in the case of public funds. If treasurers are required to loan out the funds, they and their, bondsmen will probably be relieved of responsibility for their safe -keening. but the legislature ought to be able to devise some plan that would protect the public in ti. is respect, and at the same tune give it tne benelit of any interest that can be earned on the funds belong' ing to the people. Nearly one thousand millions worth of American securities are held in Europe and they are as good as gold todav With free coinage of silver they would be as good as silver only, the shrinkage amounting to about $300,000,000. The tree silver agitation naa lea to the turn ing back of these securities upon this country, and that is the meaning of the continued heavy exportations of gold. The problem is a very simple one, and yet hundreds of thousands of men do not seem to be able to grasp it. So long as the securities alluded to are believed to bo backed by a sound currency sys tem there is no haste on the part of foreigners to get rid of them. The moment there is a draft on that point "back they come by the cart-load. That ia what the popul'iEt movement is doing -for this country and that is alf it has or ever will accomplish. . It is a movement to make money plenty i-.nd its only 3Tect is to make money scarce. 4fc What Your Great Grandmother Did. She hetcheled the flax and carded th wool, and wove the linen, and spun the tow, and made the clothes for ber husband ana ten children.- She made butter and cheese, she dipped tallow candles, to light the house at night and she' cooked all the food for her household by an open fire place and a brick oven. Yes; and when she was forty years of age, she waa already an old lady whose best days were over. Her shoulders were bent and her joints enlarged by hard work, and she wore spectacles and a cap. " Her great granddaughter," with all the modern conveniences for comfort, refinement and luxury, may be as charming and attract ive at forty-five as at twenty. Especially is this true if she preserves her health by the use of Dr Pierce's Favorite Prescription, which wards off all female ailments and ir regularities, cures them if they already exist, keeps the life current healthful and vigorous, ana enables the woman of middle age to re tain the freshness of girlhood upon brow and cheek, the light of youth in her eyes, and Its elasticity in her step. Go to your drug store, pay a dollar, get a bottle and try it try a second, a third if nec essary. Before the third one's been taken you'll know that there's a remedy to help you. Then you'll keep on and a curo'll coma. But if you shouldn't feel the help, should be disappointed in the results you'll find a guarantee printed on the bottle-wrapper that'll get your money back for you.
