THE TREATY IS DEAD
At Least Tbere Will Be No Action This
Session.
THIS IS RELUCTANTLY CONCEDED
The Senate's Action Taken as an In
dication That the Treaty Will
Be Shelved.
Washington, Feb. 25.-The Hawaiian
treaty is thought to be dead for this ses
sion. This is reluctantly conceded even
by its friends. The action of the senate
today in refusing to go into executive
session, though the action doubtless had
some reference to Hanchett's circuit
judge nomination, is also accepted as
conclusive indication that the treaty
would be shelved for the remainder of
the session. The treaty matter can, of
course, be taken up in the extra session,
which will convene immediately after
the present congress dies," but unless
some marked change occurs, there is be
lieved to be no prospect of action upon
it during the life of the present adminis
tration. A possible knowledge of its
disposition on the part of the senate had
reflex influence on the action of the
house. There was to have been a meet
ing of the ways and means committee of
the house today to consider the resolu
tion, but it did not take place. One re
publican committeeman said his col
leagues had united against the resolu
tion. He predicted the resolution would
be permitted to fall to the ground. The
democratic members of the committee
are still examining the subject, but it
does .not seem likely the resolution will
be pushed.
More Session Laws.
Salem, Feb. 25. Senator Gates' fish
and game bill (No. 86,) was filed by the
governor. It punishes the nae of sink
boxes, batteries, swivel or pivot guns,
either from shore or boat or raft ; blinds
(except 100 feet from the shore of lakes)
hunting between sundown and sunrise
(except on grain and generally in Curry
county); offering for sale or killing
grouse, pheasant, quail, ringnecked,
China, silver, golden, copper or green
Japanese pheasant, bob-white, jack
snipe or prairie chicken, except between
October 15 and November 15, and except
tnat prairie chicken may be killed in
July, August and September, and except
that no quail, bobwhiteor pheasant may
be at any time killed east of the Cas
cades by a fine of $15 to if 100 and costs,
or equivalent imprisonment, The pen
alty is extended to transportation of the
birds, except alive for exhibitory or
propagation purposes. Wild ducks,
geese and swan may only be sold in
November and December ; trout only in
September and October. Deer must not
be hunted between December 1st and
August 1st, or from an hour after sunset
until a half hour before sunrise of any
day, or in any case unless the carcass is
used for food. Moose, elk and mountain
sheep may not be taken between Dec
ember 1st and August 1st, or at any time
for their skin, hides, horns or hams.
These parts must at no time be sold or
transported. The animals themselves
must not be held in custody during their
close season, and the possession of a
hide or skin is prima facie evidence of
having killed the animal. One-half of
all fines go to the informer, and concur
rent jurisdiction is given to justices of
the peace.
Senator Crosa' road bill, which pro
vides as beforejfor working out road tax
or paying it in cash.tadds: Every such
male actually in said district shall be
subject to such tax at any time from the
first day of February of each year to the
first day of the following February. And
the supervisor may at any time assess
such tax and collect the same ; and the
presumption shall be conclusive that
such road tax has not been worked nor
paid unless such person so assessed show
a receipt for road tax or road work for
the same year, either in the same or
another district or state ; and if an action
be brought against any one for said per
sonal road tax, and he should, after the
bringing of said action, produce a receipt
for the same, having failed to produce it
before the action was brought, the costs
of the action are to be taxed to him and
enforced as a judgment for a fine in a
criminal action. The supervisor must
have two-thirds of the total road work
in his district performed before April 1,
in each year, unless the county court ex
tends his time." County courts may in
their discretion levy a tax upon all the
taxable property in the county not to ex
ceed 5 mills, and in addition a poll tax
of $2. These taxes are to be collected the
same as county taxes, and kept as a
separate road fund used solely for such
purposes. Bridges may be built or re
paired out of the general fund. The
county court is to apportion the road
taxes to the road districts, and the super
visors expend them under its surveill
ance. County roadmasters, where they
exist, do this work, and must file a re
port on opening proposed roads before
they can be located. This is the only
section of the law affected.
Senator Huston's fire-arm act, which
the governor approved, makes it unlaw
ful for any person over the age of sixteen
years, with or without malice, purposely
to point or aim any fire-arm, either
loaded or empty, at or toward another
person, except in self-defense, on pain of
$10 to $500 fine or ten days' to six
months' imprisonment, or both.
Senator Weatherford's school district
bill merely reproduces the existing stat
ute, except that it substitutes the word
"four" for "ten," thus extending the
operation of the law to towns of 4,000
inhabitants. The arrangement is that
such towns must consist of one school
district with boundaries identical, ex
cept that any portions of a district pre
viously not in the city limits is o con
tinue in the district.
The county' clerks and sheriffs of
Grant and Crook are to receive for their
services an additional compensation of
33 per centum, except in the case of
tax collections made by Grant's sheriff..
By Dr. Dodson's bill, Baker, Union,
Jackson, Lake, Umatilla, Wasco and
Klamath are now exempt from this sec
tion (No. 2,343) of the code.
Victory at Liii.
Topeka, Kan., Feb. 25. In the su
preme court this morning, Chief Justice
Horton rendered a decision, Justice
Johnson concurring, and Justice Allen,
populist, dissenting, which sustained
the Douglass, or republican house, as
the legal and constitutional house of
representatives of Kansas' legislature,
and incidentally declared the populists
had no standing. The decision was on
the case known as the Gunn habeas cor
pus case. The republican house caused
James C. Gunn to be subpemei to testify
in the contested election case. Gunn
ignored the summons, claiming the re
publican house was not the constitution
ally organized house of representatives.
The republican house ordered its ser-geant-at-arms
to arrest Gunn and take
him before the bar of the house to re
ceive punishment for contempt. Gunn
at once commenced habeas corpus pro
ceedings in the supreme court. In the
decision today the court denied the ap
plication for the writ, deciding the re
publican house was legally and consti
tutionally organized, and that it had the
right and power to enforce its mandates.
Pooling Contracts Void.
St. Louis, Mo., Feb. 25. Today in the
United States circuit court an important
decision was rendered in the case of the
Central trust company, of New York, et
al., versus the Wabash, St. Louis & Pa
cific Railway company et al. It came
before the court in the shape of an inter
vening petition of the Milwaukee fc St.
Paul against the receivership, to obtain
possession of certain profits which were
accrued to them in a combination of
railroads under contract. Judge Thayer
decided against the petitioners on their
first maintenance, holding that pooling
contracts are void, because opposed to
public policy, and also against them on
their second because the partnership
issue revolved entirely about the ques
tion of pooling.

hint dropped by the millionaire, it is be
lieved a chair of constitutional law will
be endowed in connection with Chicago
university, the salary to he $25,000 per
year, and that President Harrison will
be invited to accept the position, and to
lecture at least twice a week to students
of the Chicago educational institution.
Democrats Will Resort to Cloture.
Washington, Feb. 26. After de
nouncing the republicans for two years
the democrats are to go back on their
record and resort to cloture. They will
confine it to the sundry civil bill for the

crats realize that something must be
done to get the appropriation bills
through.

thought I never would get rid of. I had
used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy

cough had left me, and I have not suf
fered with a cough or cold since. I have
recommended it to others, and all speak
well of it." 50 cent bottles for sale by

what the remedy was that enred him.
