Bakerites have voted a new charter, have dropped the ap pendage "City" from the town cognv mon and have adopted the coramiS' sion form of government. After De cember 6 the town will be governed by a mayor and two commissioners. The mayor will draw a salary of $2,- 500 per annum while each of the com-n-issioners will be given $2000 per annum. The mayor must give a bond ol $25,000 while each commissioner nuist give bonds of $15,000 each. It is hoped that the commisison will run the affairs of the city upon a more businesslike basis than they have been conducted In the past; that many economies will be attained and great. r efficiency provided In all depart ments. That the commission form of gov ernment is the proper thing in cities of the larger size seems now unques tioned. It Is being tried with the greatest success in Des Moines and TEX COMMANDMENTS. ; In many other places. Almost unl ,versally the commission plan is re garded as an improvement over the beatin'" ' system of government through a city jcvunell or board of aldermen. Whether or not the same would be kl 11 mill J l L l 'J flUVE0 L . 1 OlAC O of Pendleton or Baker City remains ' to be seen. There are many reasons jfor believing the commission plan J i would work equally well In the small 4 4 444449i cities. Perhaps we can tell by watch. ' 1 j ing Baker's experiment. Germany has taken over with en thusiasm the idea tnrtlated by ; the Italian Marriage Gazette, Gazette de gil Spozi. which gives rules for a happy married life and there is now published a German edition of the Ten Commandments for Husbands. It should be explained that these ten commandments are Intended, . and taken, seriously by both the Germans and Italians, and are by no means a Joke. The problems of each nationality, are, to a degree, different in matri mony as well as politics, so I beg to suggest the following ten command ments for the American husbands: 1. Pick out a wife with as much care as you do a horsse. Investigate her pedigree, and find out if she is kind, gentle, tractable, good temper ed, willing to work in double harness without shying or bolting. 2. Don't marry until you are ready to settle down, as long as you want to train with the boys keep sin gle. 3. Don't marry until you are able to support a wife. It takes money to nourish love at the present price of beef steaks. 4. Don't shoo away the stork from your house. Every married couple, to be happy, must have a common in terest, and there is no such common interest as a baby. 5. Don't boss or be bossed. The Ideal marriage Is not an autocracy but a partnership. 6. Settle the financial question the day you are married. Make your wife a fair allowance and compel her I to keep within It. 7. Give as much time and thought to your wife as you do to business, and show as much real heart interest in her as vou do in the stock market, 8. Make it a rule to tell your wife at least once a day that you are as much in love with her as you were when vou courted her, and that she gets better looking very day of her life. 9. See that your wife has plenty of work to do, mixed in with plenty of fun. It is only neglected and Idle women who have affinities. 10. Never let your mother or your wife's mother live in your house. An in-law is a harbinger of domestic strife and the first aid to divorce. Dorothy Dftc in San Francisco Exam WATCH XEW MEXICO. The people of Oregon should take note of the constitutional convention now being held in New Mexico. We may learn something from the ex perienoe that new state is having with its constitution makers. There are 100 members of the New Mexico convention and when those men w ere chosen the standpat element in the republican party resorted to desperate efforts to gain control. All sorts of methods, legal and illegal, were resorted to In order to prevent the convention from falling into the hpiuls of the progressives. It is open ly charged that In pome districts pro gressive watchers at the polls were barred and the judges would examine the ballots before dropping them into the box. Through such methods and through the lack of an effective or ganization on the other side the stand, patters were able to get a big repre sentation in the convention. They will probably control it and bar the direct primary law, the initiative and referendum and other kindred meas ure from the constitution. . Should the people of Oregon vote for the bill calling for a constitutional convention for this state we will face1 the same sort of a fight New Mexico has experienced. ' If a convention is called you may rest assured that the special interests that oppose the Initi ative and referendum and the direct primary will do their utmost to cap ture the convention. The represen tatives to the convention will be elect ed at a special primary and a special lection. In those elections the aver age man would not feel deeply inter ested. The ordinary- voter Is apathetic with regard to anything of that sort. But the special Interests would not be apathetic. They would be on deck with their plans cocked and primed. They would capture that convention If they had to break laws to do so. They would write a constitution to suit themselves and not to serve the best interests of the public at large. If voters are wise they will take no chances with a constitutional conven tion. The constitution may be am etided now under the initiative when amendments are wanted. This should ufflce. TAKE XO CHANCES. "When the Divil is sick the Divil a saint would be," applies very well to some assemblites. When the returns came in from the recent primary el ection there were many assembly backers who felt sick. They were ready to desert the assembly ship and also give up antagonism to statement Xo. 1. C. W. Hodson and T. T. Geer of Portland are examples of this brand of assemblyites. But there are a great any assem blyites who have not recanted. Many ot these men have been nominated for the legislature and are now seeking election. Umatilla county has at least two or three such candidates. It Is not likely those men will say much about assemblyism nor much about statement No. 1 while making their campaigns. Nevertheless they are as semblyites and they oppose the prin ciple embodied in Statement No. 1. If they are elected to the legislature and if enough assemblymen are chosen from other parts of the state t j control the legislature then these men will find their tongues. The ma chine men will claim that assemblyism has been endorsed and that the peo ple do not favor statement No. 1. "When the Divil gets well divil a saint is he." A PRISON RECORD. A badgering lawyer was trying to bully a mod.-st witness. Scowling at the moist-eyed man, he snappef.l out: "Ever been in prison, sir?" The witness did not answer. , "Come now; speak up. witness, no concealment: Have you ever been In prison ?" "Yes, sir; o-n-c-e." answered the witness, looking modestly at the floor. "Yes, I thought so. You look like It. Now, look me In the eye. When were you in prison, sir? Tell the truth!" "Ah. nit forty years ago." "What prison Sing Sine?" The witness hesitated. "Come, own up. no dodgine!" screamed the lawyer. "Now what prjson were you in. sir?" "In in in" "Don't stammer, sir! Out with It! Give the name of the prison!" "In In Andersonville, sir.'" There was a moment's painful pause. Then the lawyer, who was an old soldier, put his hand to his fore head as if a pistol shot had struck him, while tears came to his 'eyes. Then, jumping forward, he ctysped his arms around the witness's neck and cried: "My God! I was there myself." "Ell Perkins." REDTH ECTED. A few days ago the Los Angeles Times was dynamited and a score of Innocent men were killed. Down in A'abama yesterday a negro was burn, ed at the stake by a mob of 400 ex cited men. All this In an age of pro gress and of mental and moral enlightenment. Portland should not try to hold a Roundup. That is Pendleton's affair. Eut the Webfooters couldn't if they wanted to. They don't know how and they haven't the proper atmos phere for such a show. Now for the fall plowing and seeding;. A GAMBLER. HE DESERVES ELECTION. In the primary campaign the East Oregonlan endorsed the candidacy of C A. Barrett for the republican nom ination for joint senator and it now otges his election. This because the paper believes Mr. Barrett's record as a legislator makes him entitled to the higher office. During his four years (u the house of representatives Mr. Barrett kept the pledges he had made his constituents and served their Interests faithfully. He has been tried !n the fire and found to be of the proper metal. He should be elect ed joint senator. Against Mr. Barrett a democratic -candidate Is running, Dr. Hall of Un ion county. He will .likely have the Policeman Thomas Noon, doorman at Monteclalr police station since Ju ly 1st last, has spent his spare time In playing solitaire In the policemen s room, says the Newark "Star." He approached Chief Henry Gallagher re cently and said: "Chief, I am going to give up play Ing solitaire." "Why?" asked the chief. s "Well, I'll tell you confidentially, chief," replied Noon. "I have' no suc cess at the game. I now owe myself $862. and I'm afraid I'll go broke." Inquiry by the chief brought out the fact that Noon had been keeping a debit and credit account with him self on the games he lost and won. FAIR, BUT STORMY. A gentleman boarded the Karorl car at Kelbourne avenue. Recognlz Ing a friend in one of the seats, he nodded pleasantly and then said. "Well, what do you think of the weather?" "Oh, horrible!" was the reply. "And how Is your wife today?' She's just about the same, thank support of the machine republican you." New Zealand Free Lance, The struegling author boldly enter ed the editorial sanctum. "I have come with my latest story," he announced. "Well." ejaculated the busy editor. in a resigned voice, "let us hear how it runs " "Well, this Is from the first chap ter: 'Casper had been manning as motionless as a block of granite. Sud denly he dropped on his knees before the beautiful girl with the alabaster brow and boldly proposed. It was then that she answered with a stony stare and told him that to him her heart was marble. Then '" But the busy editor interrupted him. "Young man." he remonstrated, vou have made a mistake. Take that story down to the nearest stoneyard. This Is an editorial office." BOY WITH A FITCUE. W. R. Duley, mayor of Little Rock, rebuked the other day, a political op ponent by means of an anecdote. "The gentleman does not really answer me. He quibbles," said Mayor Duly. "His words are like a little farm boy's. "Once, in the country, I came upon a little, freckled, mischievous farm boy. He proved to be bright and in telligent, and I said to him: " 'Have you lived all your life here, my little man?' " 'No. sir; not yet,' he replied." Reporter (with exploring party) I wish I could send some news to my editor that would cheer him up a bit. His Tentmate Why not send in a report that you have been killed by savages? Scraps. This Fact that in addressing Mrs. Pinkham you are con fiding your private ills to a woman a woman whose ex perience with women's diseases covers twenty-five years. The present Mrs. Pinkham, daughter-in-law of Lydia E. Pinkham, was for years under her direction, and has ever since her decease continued to advise women. Many women suffer in silence and drift along from bad to worse, knowing well that they ought to have immediate assistance, but a natural modesty causes them to shrink from exposing themselves to the questions and probable examinations of even their family physician. Such ques tioning and examination is unnecessary. Without cost you can consult a woman whose knowledge from actual expc:::r-co is great. MRS. PINKHAM'S STANDING INVITATION: Women suffering from any form of female weakness arei vited to promptly communicate with Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass. All letters are received, opened, read and answered by women. A woman can freely talk of her private illness to a woman; thus has been established this confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and the women of America which has never been broken. Never has she published a testi monial or used a letter without the written consent of the writer, and never has the company allowed these confi dential letters to get out of their possession, as the hun dreds of thousands of them in their files will attest. Out of the vast vrhimc of experience which Mrs. Pink ham has to draw from, it is more than possible that she has gained the very knowledge needed in your case. She asks nothing in return except your good will, and her advice has helped thousands. Surely any woman, rich or poor, should be glad to take advantage of this generous offer of assistance.
