Would Rather Cause Claimants to Wait Two Years Than to Sign a Bill That Would Work Hardship on the Taxpayers. Salem, Ore., Feb. 2S. Governor Chamberlain has vetoed 14 li'lls pass ed by the legislature. It Is declared by those who are familiar wtih legis lation in Oregon that he has surpass ed the records of his predecessors in that regard. Late this nftornocn he did what many a governor has want ed to do, and threateno 1 to do. when he vetoed a special appropriation bill. Some valid and meritorious claims have gone with the unmeritorious, but a precedent has been established for the disapproval of special appro priation bills which contain unsatis factory items. Executive Mansion Killed. Under the constitution of Oregon no single item of an appropriation bill can be vetoed, and the bill had to stand or fall as a whole. The gover nor concluded after several days de liberation, that it would be better that the bill should fall. This bill carries the $14,500 appro priation for the executive mansion, the claims, aggregating $1000, for the pursuit of Tracy and Merrill; $10. -000 for Improvements at the fair grounds, $34,000 for payment of claims of counties under the scalp bounty act, and claims of W. A. Stor ey, O'Day and Tarpley, Alex Orme, H. G. McCarthy, H. S. Moody, Hofer Bros., C. S. Moore, M. C. Starr and F. W. Dillard, for various purposes and in various amounts. The total amount was something over $62,000. Would Rather Walt Two Years. While the veto is placed upon the constitutional ground that the bill does not Include but one subject, ami that the subjects are not expressed in the title, yet in its principal effect it is a protest against the practice of grouping a number of unrelated appropriations in a single bill so that improper ones must be approved if any at all, Every governor has been confronted with the same sort of bills, but heretofore they have been signed rather than let valid claims wait two years for payment. I CHURCH STATEMENT. Rev. Lister Reports on the Comple tion of the Church on Water Street. Pendleton, Or., Feb. 28. (Editor EaBt Oregonian.) It is due the city of Pendleton that a statement should be made relative to the new church Hearing completion, corner of Johnson and Water streets. We expect to open the entire church as an audience room to the public tomorrow. Serv ices will begin at 11 a. m. after the Sundny school hour. There will be preaching also at 7:30 p. m. Evange list Allen Wilson, of Indianapolis, Ind., will have conduct from Sunday of a series of gospel meetings for weeks. Professor A .R. Davis ac companies him to direct the music. Mr. Davis asks for a large chorus, and all capable of taking a place in the chorus are cordially invited. It is proper to set forth the success of the enterprise. On my part it has been a pleasure, and so. I think, to all who have been interested. Church building is a public enter prise of the very best quality. It sets in motion a great many wheels. i wo years ago the congregation that assumed this work called me to assist in the canvass for funds. Three years prior, or in the autumn of '98, a county convention was held meeting at the Congregational church. In that assembly the mission for a new building in Pendleton was given first place. There were attendants from other churches of the county, some ofl whom expressed themselves strongly in favor of building a substantial t nouse ot worsntp nere. One brother stated that if the congregation would take up the work, he would give $500, provided they built a house of not less than $5,000 value. With this encouragemnet. the can vass began in November, 1900, Since that time, by the solicitation of differ ent ones, the sum of $8,254.57 has been found available. The whole cost will approximate $9,500. rrom Christian churches, members and missions there was found avail-1 able outside of Pendleton $5,373t This congregation raised $1,014.37. Men of Pendleton, outside of our member ship, gave $1,074.70. Non-members outside of Pendleton gave $192.50. William Reeder has placed at our disposal $1,600. This Is a princely gift. And he is assisting with greater liberality this year at Athena, where the same house in plan is Just completed. The Athena house is no better as a building, but is better equipped. More money has been put Into equip ment at Atnena than hero, but we think our house is rather better as a building, "the best In Eastern Ore gon," as many affirm. It will require about $9,500 to pay us out. Had we the means we would have made no short cuts on equip ment. But it would have required $1,500 more, which was not available for us. We are exceedingly grateful for the The Children Enjoy Life out of doors and out of the games which they play and the enjoyment which they receive and the efforts which they make, comes the greater part of that healthful development which is so essential to their happiness when grown. When a laxative is needed the remedy which is given to them to cleanse and sweeten and strengthen the internal organs on which it acts, should be such as physicians would sanction, because its component parts are known to be wholesome and the remedy itself free from every objectionable quality. The one remedy which physicians and parents, well-informed, approve and recommend and which the little ones enjoy, because of its pleasant flavor, its gentle action and its beneficial effects, is Syrup of Figs and for the same reason it is the only laxative which should be used by fathers and mothers. Syrup of Figs is the only remedy which acts gently, pleasantly and naturally without griping, irritating, or nauseating and which cleanses the system effectually, without producing that constipated habit which results from the use of the old time cathartics and modern imitations, and against which the children should be so carefully guarded. If you would have them grow to manhood and womanhood, strong, healthy and happy, do not give them medicines, when medicines are not needed, and when nature needs assistance in the way of a laxative, give them only the simple, pleasant and gentle Syrup of Figs. Its quality is due not only to the excellence of the combination of the laxative principles of plants with pleasant aromatic syrups and juices, but also to our original method of manufacture and as you value the health of the little ones, do not accept any of the substitutes which unscrupulous dealers sometimes offer to increase their profits. Please to remember, the full name of the Company -CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP CO. is printed on the front of every package. In order to get its beneficial effects it is always neces sary to buy the genuine only.

And we feel that we owe I the free use of this excellent audi- j ence room for any public good as long as it may be the need and pleasure of the people, when special dates do not conflict. It is a matter of sincere regret that the date of our opening, awarded by Evangelist Wilson, should deprive ihe club women of Pendleton the use of the church. It seemed impossible for either of us to adjust dates for the convenience of both. Unless we should suspend our opening indefi nitely we could not accommodate their art exhibit at this time. It is but just to say, and a pleasure, that we have been aided In our build ing by a very competent set of build ers, superintended by William Hale. A more sober, attentive and dilligent band of workers could hardly be brought together. They are thorough ly loyal to their leader, Mr. Hale, and to their city, Pendleton. Faithfully. J. B. LISTER.
