Miss Fay Fuller, of the Pendleton Tribune, scores the legislators of New York for undertaking to pass laws upon so paltry a thing as the average theater hat worn by ladies. Miss Fuller takes the ground that "the fashion is a pass ing one," and that "at the worst com paratively few women offend." This assertion proves aim ply that Miss Fuller is young, and also that she has not de voted much time to the stndv of that paltry object, the tfieater hat. Ever since we can remember, the hat, as sported by the female theater-goer, has been a nuisance and an eyesore, and we do not now rt member a play that we have seen as well as heard since the days of our kidhood, when we could climb into some place where the hat could not. Indeed, the hat, or the head gear, of the theater-going female has been a nuisance time immemorial. 'The primitive inhabitants of New Anister dam had an ordinance against high coiffures. Ben Johnson ridiculed it. Praed dressed one of his heroines up as being a theater-going lady, who "Hawked and hunted In all weathers, And stood six feet, including feathers." The subject, if traced back, can be fol lowed into the remotest ages of an tiquity. Sesostrotis killed her husband, the king, when she got a high crown on Ham got black in the face trying to see over his wife's Easter bonnet when he was watching for the dove to return to the ark ; and it is probable that the rea son Adam did not catch on, and so pre vent the success of the wiles of the ser pent, was because of Eve's high' hat preventing his seeing the ' principal actor. The high hat at the theater is an un mitigated nuisance, that is passing only in the sense that it passes from one tash ion to another, but unfortunately never passes from one extreme to the other. OVR OPINION TOO. The bill introduced in the legislature by Mr. Rinearson, of Clackamas, pro- Tiding for a constitutional convention in Oregon should pass. The constitution of this state has, long ago, outlived its use' fulness, and many are the amendments which could be made with profit to the state, bnd render better service to the people. The constitution ot thirty years ago does not fill the requirements of to day, and the document under which we are working might well be consigned to oblivion, to give place to one which would more nearly conform to present conditions and emergencies. It is time Oregon cast off the mask of old fogy ism and get in line with the march of prog ress inaugurated by your younger sisters of the Pacific coast. Mist. HIS WAKE. If The-Dalles Chronicle desires to open the coffin and hold up that political corpse coon, lor his own delectable gaze we've no objection. But the Observer has nothing to retract concerning the sentiment in Sherman county respecting tne scurvy scrun. opinions may diner, but there is no difference of opinions in this region when a man proves to the people that he is a scrub. Moro Ob server. The Chronicle is not holding Mr. Coon up as a corpse, or otherwise, and has not mentioned bis name since the fight over the senatorship began. Th Observer, it strikes us, is the principal mourner at the wake, and seems to be enjoying the corpse thoroughly. Senator Huston's homestead exemp tion bill which passed the senate Thurs day, places the value of exemption at $1000 instead of $1500 as now. It pro vides further that if the homestead ia sold the proceeds shall be exempt; that if the house is burned the $1000 insur ance shall be exempt; and that in case of the husband's death the exemption shall be in force for the benefit of the widow and children until the youngest child i" 21 years of age. A method of de- termining the valuation is provided, to be carried out by the appraisement of three householders, to be called in by the levying officer, the owner being al lowed time to raise the excess over $1000, An amendment offeted was agreed to providing that the bill should not affect existing; contracts. The East Oregonian says thai St. Val entine was not a preacher ; and that is one time our contemporary is mistaken St. Valentine, both' of him, for there were two," was a preacher. Not only that, but St. Valentine No. 1 was, ac cording to all accounts, a very powerful preacher. With a lawyer convicted of man slaughter, a preacher a convicted bank robber, and a doctor caught kidnaping young lady patient, Portland's profes sional people can : hardly be charged with moesbackism. ' Minister Gray Dead. Isaac P. Gray, United States minister to Mexico, died at the City of Mexico yesterday evening. He had been in Washington,, but on account of the threatened war between Mexico and Gautemala he hurried back to his post. He was taken sick on the way, arrived n the city of Mexico yesterday morning in an unconscious condition, and so re mained until death claimed him. Mr. Gray had been governor of Indiana, and was prominently mentioned in connec tion with the democratic nomination for president three years ago. Ten days loss 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 6ick in bed for ten days with the grip during its prevalence a year or two ago. Later in the season be had a second attack, tie says: in the latter case I used Chamberlain's Cough Remedy with considerable suc cess, I think, only being in bed a little over two days. The second attack I am satisfied wo aid have been equally as bad as the first butfortheuse of this rem edy." It should be'borne in mind that the grip is much the same as a very severe cold and requires preciselj the same treatment. When you wish to cure a cold quickly and effectually give this remedy a trial. 50 cent bottles for eale by Blakeley & Houghton Druggists, Harry I always wear a hat to suit my head ; hang the style.
