THURSDAY, - FEBRUARY 14, 1895 IT SHOULD PASS. Senator Mitchell's bill to amend tbe constitution bo aa to provide for the elec tion of United States senators by pop ular vote, ought to pass. There is no reason why the election of the senators whould be delegated to the legislatures, and there are many reasons why they should not be. The present deadlock in Salem is a case in point. Here at our own capital we have the spectacle of a party being placed in power by an over whelming majority of the votes of .the people, and in an overwhelming majority as regards legislative -votes, frittering away time that is costing the people $200 an hour, and that should be devoted to law making, in an apparently hopeless quarrel. That quarrel is based upon a dispute as to what- tbe people want. Each side claims to represent the people, ' and there seems to be no way of settling the matter. Had it been left to the people themselves instead of being dele gated to the peoples' representatives, the matter woald have been settled the way the people wanted it. Another reason is that under the present system the senate is composed largely of men of great wealth or else men who represent not the people but the great corpora tions. This condition of affairs is be coming a menace to our institutions and a rock upon which the good ship oi state will wreck if the rock is not removed. There is a question before this people now that is forging to the front as the vital one. More important than the tariff ; more important than the fin an cial question, and that is the establish ing of tbe respective rights of labor and its creature capital. We are not cranky as concerns corporations. We recognize their importance and their necessity. We know that individual wealth cannot carry out the great busi ness of the country, and that corpora tions by which vast sums can be gath ered and controlled are a feature of ' modern civilization that cannot be dis pensed with. They are necessities, tbe creature of tbe laws and must not be allowed to become the creators of them It is for our legislative bodies and for congress principally, (because the larger corporations are national in their rami' fications) to say how far the right of tbe corporations to levy tax upon the public shall extend. It is for them to limit the powers of these aggregations of capital, and to hedge about and protect the rights of the citizen and tbe laborer. It will not do for this task to be placed in the hands of corporation attorneys, or cor poration officers. The representatives of the whole people, and they alone, should be allowed to undertake this diffi cult task. This country .has prospered under a protective tariff system, and it has moved along under free trade. It pros pered when silver was at a premium, it will prosper with silver at a discount when some settled financial and revenue policy shall be established, but the con' flict between capital and labor is irre pressible and must be fought to a finish Neither can exist without the other and each know this, but as long as greed ex ists (and than corporate greed nothing is greater) the matter cannot be left to the parties to settle, because the stronger would per force settle it, and settle it wrong. It is for congress, a congress elected by all the people, to grapple with the question and settle it in the interests of all, and therefore right. TWO OF A KIND. An onion, which had been placed by a careless cook on a shelf of the pantry, began in a short time to put on airs over its proud position. It could peep out of the window and see the great world on which it looked down, and each day it felt more and more the exalted position in which it had been placed, and soon grew quite contemptuous towards the world which it could see so far beneath it. "It does not seem possible," it mur mured, as it cast a glance over its round belly and glossy skin, "that I was once of that common earth that I see, and that I grew among the lowly vegetation of that mucky soil." Ia the midst of its proud musings the cook placed by its side a slab of codfish that came from the banks of Newfoundland. The proud and haughty onion was at first speech less with indignation, but swallowing its wrath and drawing its brown silken robes away from - its neighbor, as if it feared contamination, it demanded from whence its uncivilized visitor came and whv it encroached on its domains. "On your domains?" replied the cod fish. "Why yours? The same cook that placed you here placed me here." That may be," said the onion, "but I was never so put upon in my life. Me- thinks from your offensive smell that you have not washed your feet for a year." "Smell! is it you say? O'ds fish! but you are no violet! You've a breath on you like a free trade argu nient.' ' "You are beneath my notice," said the thoroughly enraged onion, and were it not for the offensive effluvium, I should turn my back upon you to Bome purpose. As it is, how can I hope to escape your presence, which makes itself known as offensively as one of your deceased cousins, the mackerel, when exposed to tbe moonlight, and which the longer it is ignored the worse it smells." "Its 16 to 1," retorted the codfish, "you have never associated with respectable people, or you would realize that you are somewhat of a 'stinkard' yourself." "I shall appeal to the cook to remove you," growled the onion, iiut at tbat moment tne cook appearing, without more ado, popped both onion and fish into the slop bucket remarking that that rotten onion and decayed fish were spoiling the pantry and ruining everything in the house. Moral Of two evils take neither, but elect the senator yourself. Tea days Joss of time on account of sickness and a doctor bill to pay, is any thing but pleasant for a man of a family to contemplate, whether he is a laborer, mechanic, merchant or publisher. Jas O. Jones, publisher of the Leader Mexia, Texas, was sick in bed for ten days with the grip during its prevalence a year or two ago. Later in tbe season ne nad a second attack. He says : "in the latter case I used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy with considerable sue cess, I think, only being in bed a little over two days. The second attack I am satisfied woald have been equally as bad as the first butfortheuse of this rem edv." It should be borne in mind that the grip is much the same as a very severe cold and requires precisely the same treatment. When you wish to cure a cold quickly and effectually give this remedy a trial. 50 cent bottles for sale by Blakeley & Houghton Druggists Funeral Will Be Held Tomorrow. San Francisco, Feb. 13.
