James Rutsell Lowell. PEOn.E AND COMMISSION. The railroad commission bill as passed by both branches of the Ore gon legislature is not satisfactory to Governor Chamberlain, because tha appointive power is taken away from the governor, and it is probable that he will velo the measure when it tomes up to him. His argument for giving the ap pointive power to the governor is that somebody should be responsible; that the railroad commission should not be beyond the reach of the executive In ease of unfitness or dishonesty, and the argument is good. If Oregon must have a commission, it would simplify matters to provide in the law for its political make-up and then leave the appointment with some body in authority. However, the people are capable ot selecting these officials as well as others. If the people choose the thev will have no one to blame but themselves. V.'hat the people should have, now. Is the power of recall. They should be able to unseat any man guilty of crookedness without the slow process of Impeachment. There should be a quick method of removal. MORE FATAL THAN WAR. The Scientific American of New York city paints the following graphic word picture of the annual slaughter of American industries: Statistics are "dry '; but sometimes they are wonderfully Illuminating, ana occasionally, by means of a tabulated list, a fact will be brought home to tbe public with a convincing force, which could be gained In no other way. At the dinner held in New York to Inaugurate the opening in this city of the First International Exposition of Safety Devices and Industrial Hygiene, Governor Hughes made the startling announcement that the number of people killed or wounded in the vari ous Industries of the United States, amounts to 500,000 every year! And yet, if we bear in mind what a large number of people fall victims annually to the carelessness with which our railroads are operated, It should not surprise us that In the whole range of our Industrial activity the total number of accidents should reach the stupendous figure of half a million. It is characteristic of the short sightedness, the absence of perspec tive, the lack of a sense of proportion, which marks the average Individual, that there should be such 1 wild out- Are Your Drugs and Medicines Pure? Do They Comply With the New Federal Pure Drug Act? You Buy Quality From Us and Pay No More. Pendleton Drug Co. "The Mark of Quality." cry against the slaughter of a great war an event which may occur once In 10 years when, as a matter of fart the killings and woundlngs of battle nre Insignificant compared to the dHy-by-day carnnge and mutila tion which occur In the prosecution of the so-called peaceful urts. And this tragedy Is rendered all the more terrible when we learn that by the outlay of a certain amount of money nni the expenditure of a rea somible amount of well-timed fore thought and protective provision, mot of our industrial accidents could !e absolutely prevented. T11E THEATRICAL. TRUST. It has conic at last. On ThursJay the grand jury of New York returned Indictments ugaiust the so-called the atrical trust naming Jlarc Klaw, A. L. Urlanger, Samuel Nixon, J. Fred Zim merman, L nurles t Tollman anu ai 1 1 ay men as the responsible parties. District Attorney Jerome took up the complaint of David Belasco, who claimed that he could not sooure bookings for his attractions in ceruln theaters because of an agreemnet Be tween the men mentioned and tbut a conspliacy existed to ruin his busi ness. The methods of the trust have teen such that any roan who wished to do business with the theaters had to see Klaw A. Erlanger and In the case of the great successes such as Uelasco has 'cut out. they demanded a large slice of the profits before allowing the tour to be booked. The hooking office scheme aa start ed by Klaw & Erlinger was, in its day, a most admirable thing. It saved a tremendous amount of expenses to the managers of theaters and the mana gers of companies. It provided short consecutive routes that allowed the companies to play every night and if rightly carried out prevented long Jumps and kept the attractions In a small town well scattered. But as the power of the booking agents Increased the authority cr Klaw 4 Erlanger Increased and final ly what was a convenience to the theater managers and the company managers became a necessity and then Klaw & Erlanger took advantage of the situation and said "dlvy up." It has roen within the power of the trust to ruin a manager by so ar ranging his tours that all profits would he eaten up by railroad fares or the company booked in towns that would not yield a profit. On the other hand, If a house man aser kicked he would be disciplined bv having nothing but the poorest class of attractions sent to his house. If the manager came out in open op pislUrn the tru't would have an-, other theater built and all the good companies sent there. There are in many towns of this country excellent theaters built with due regard to the comfort of the patrons that are playing cheap com pinles, stuck or vaudeville pimply be- caue the manager wanted . to be something besides a figurehead. And often the best players of the courtry are sent to cheap, tawdy theaters where the dangers from fire. pooi construction and bad plumbing are ever present. The city council Is starting out early and vigorously on the street sprinkling question. This feature of the municipal government has been extremely expensive in the past and It U believed that by watchfulness and rigid rup?rvlslon by the sprin kling committee that a much better service at lower cost can be obtained. Manv really Important streets have been neglected In the past and streets close In have been over-sprinkled, made muddy. This practice should he changed and will be changed by the practical men on this committee. It now looks as though the normal school question of Oregon would be left with ' a locating committee, with Irstructlons to that committee to lo cate and provide for but two normal schools. Umatilla county, being the home of the only eastern Oregon nor mal, must ever remain in possession of this Institution. The people of Pendleton do not appreciate the excellent railroad serv ice which they enjoy, until a suspen slon of traffic brings It home to them fnrclhly. Ten malls each day, the or dlnary service of this city Is not en loved by nny other point In the northwest aside from four or five large cities. OREGON' WOMAN SOLD DRAIN. Oregon people frequently hear of fabulous prices paid for Hood River apples at the tables of the Waldorf AMorla and of the eagerness of the eastern palate for Rogue River pears; they read of an occasional flurry In Oregon wool In the eastern markets, and hear the cry of the eastern baker and brewer for more Oregon hops; SSjllH of I k lpsjly ifr in food causes V,, Jp"V fjjjljpr stomach disorders Its con- JkkE (JplpjjSr tinued use means permanent JjOjpSR Plly injury to health. . npHPi Following the advice of medical Jij&pljlf? 9 scientists, England and France have ljjfll j a passed laws prohibiting its use vMffjHi m in bread making.

A Portland woman, through an eastern syndicate, has put up ner brain, to be sold for dissection, to the highest bidder. The brain Is to be delivered after its owner's death. Pr. Ella K. Dearborn of Portland, is the woman, and when interviewed the other day, she not only confirm ed the report of her unusual offering, but said that she was very much In earnest about making the sale, and that when she had found a satisfac tory' buver she would not hesitate to bind herself by contract for the de livery of the goods to the purchaser. Chicago Record-Herald. STORY OP SEEDLESS ORANGE. La Salle A. Maynard tells "The Story of the Seedless Orange" In the World Today for January. Mrs. Lu ther C. Tlbblts of California obtained 1872 four orange shopts from the agricultural department at Washing ton, sent there by William F. Judson, American consul at Bahla, Brazil. They were presented to him by a na tive, who had several shoots of a seedless orange tree growing In a iwamD on the Amazon. Mrs. Tlbblts brought the infant trees carefully home and her husband planted them In the garden. y One died, another was chewed up by a nredatorv cow. but two lived, and five years later produced It oranges. of the suffering and danger in store of all pleasant anticipations of the shadow of gloom which cannot be have found that the use ot motners menu aunng pregnancy ruu confinement of all pain and danger, and insures safety to life of mother and child.
