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.

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.
