Constitutiion.
MAKER'S EXPERIMENT.
Baker City Is to try an experiment
that Pendleton people may watch
with profit. 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

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.

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."

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

Policeman Thomas Noon, doorman

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.

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. Address Mrs. Pinkham, care of Lydia
E. Pinkham Medicine Co., Lynn, Mass.
