BLACK THORN. It seems that the greatest thorn in the flesh of the white man of the United States of to day is a black one the negro. Surely the white people of the . South have reason to curse their luck m consideration of the .plaeue that has descended to them as the fruits of the sins of .their fathers. The negro was brought to this country in chains a century ago; .he came here against his will and .because the white man made -him do so. Now it seems as though in time he would have to go somewhere and some way .all because the white man so "wills. During the early history of the slave trade many there -were who frowned upon and cori demned slavery and who were -doubtful of results. Sirica first brought to the Uni ted States the negro has been aiought but a source of trouble. "He was the cause of one of r"he greatest struggles ever known in .modern times, the civil war. "This great struggle was for the settlement of the negro question, .and it is not settled yet. It -looks as though affairs in the JSouth are becoming more and .more alarming each succeeding 35rear- Will a race war result? .Possibly; but if not what in creation is to be the end of the antagonism that has existed for centuries, and always will exist, between the white and black Ji'aces? NOW IN SESSION. "Monday saw the legislature -for the State of Oregon conven ed. For some little time pre vious there had been much spec- uiuliuu as iu wiiu wuuiu ue eiect,- - d president of the senate and speakerof the house. E. W. jrHaine-?, of Washington county, cwas elected president of the .in lUfL. VII UUIIUU- llUUOVIl 5 -Mill, nomah. was the. onl v on- i.ps;er.t of Haines who merited JErank Davey was elected with - at -opposition on the first bal- Wliila the legislature is repub lican almost to the core there is -svery reason to believe, at least xat this stage of the game, that .-.in v t-ii uiav iiliv wii.il f.iiei .deuiuciai.it: senators aiiu lejre- aentatives. On this head it may i: t. J ent that the Haines men, as mel as others, have expressed - assuring information, as in the .- i j c .. ii i legislature is jor uie matting ana .assingof laws for the welfare --i. i m m. Kji ciuiwii iata as j.i&ire nrovfd ohr.nviniis nr innrlp- sxiuste. In the second place there 'iis no sense in the governor of arrj- state and the senators and representatives bickering and -abusing the faith of their con .-utituency just because of a dif ference in political faith. There is nothing of greater importance to the people of any a'tate than the legislative ses sions. It is safe to say that . -never in the history of this state vdid the prospects for fair sailing during the legislative session vfook so bright as they do for this ar.5Sion. In the past there have always been days and weeks of wraitgling and lobbying and bal loting for United States senators where there has . been a sen- ;a' or to elect. Two United States se lators are to be chosen this .session, but the choice becomes rather fan endorsement "cf the popular vote last June than an election. Fred W. Molkey and Jonathan Bourne,: both of Mult nomah, are the senators chosen by the people of Oregon to re present them in . Washington . D. C. at-future' sessions of the nat ional congress. Mr. Bourne will have the long term . while Mr Mulkey wfll hold office during the short term. There is no rea son to doubt that these gentle men will be speedily and grace fully endorsed when the time for balloting arrives. Hence it will be seen that there seems no good reason why the legislature should not at once settle down to the consider ation of serious matters. Per haps the greatest question before the legislative body, or likely to come before it, will relate to railroad franchises and railroad matters generally, together with the consideration of proper con trol of all public franchise cor porations. These of themselves are matters of greatest imppr: tance to this state beside which other things seem almost . insig nificant. We hope the present session of the legislature will make as creditable a close as it has a beginning. Recommendatijns by Governor. Governor Chamberlain in his inaugural message makes the fallowing recommendations to t ie legislature : The creation of a railroad com mission, to ibe app nnted by the governor; improvement of water ways and purchase ol Oregon City locks, appropriation lor mainte nance ol portage road, election ot Bourne and Mulkey as Uaited States senators, income tax and increased tax on inheritances, flit salary for state printer, one board of control lor state normal schools, more equitable appor tionment of representation in leg islature, anti-pass law, state to piy necessary traveling expenses of officials, state inspection of private banks, liberal appropria tion lor Seattle exposition, pro hibition of lobbying, except un der close restrictions; publicity of election expenditures, no corpor ition contributions; sta.te super vision of private insane asylums, state asylum for feeble-m nded children, desert land :and school laud legislation. .

To s-cure law for the oVy- . mem of bounties on covote scalps in Western Oregon is Hf purpose of , a movement whicft has been T- inaugurated , m Zi-ntr county. Petitions are now be ing circulated asking that such a law be inacted at the present' -.ts-sion of the Irgislature. Since the scalp bounty law was abolished coyotes v have br- conie verv plentiful iu the foot ! nilis of Eastern Lion and havr done great damage on stock j rat'ches. Ranchers io the vicin r rj,.n., c u 1 1 L V Ul IIUIKJ , VJWttl 1 -I UJC, Crawfordsville and ;-Sodavi'lle formed a It-ague ; and have been pajing $10 fur every ' scalp brought in. The burden from loss of stock and payment of this bounty, too, has been a htavy one, the Tanchers. say, and they want the county to assist in the ext rmination of" the pests. The inaugurators of the pres ent movement want a law fash ion d after the act of 1887, rather than the one of 19O1, which made it ea.y to ship in coote scalps from other states andv,Col!ect'the bounty, a procedure which was the diiect cauie of the repeal ot the law.

What Going .West, Not East, Meant to the Fiery Lawyer. During the young manhood of Andrew- Jackson, when he rode the tircuit in Tennessee, knowing more law than most of his brethren at the bar, afraid of nothing on earth, ready to challenge' to a duel some trained lawyer from the older set tlements, whenihathj, lawyer tres passed upon his own preserves and made fun of his ignorance as Waightstill Avery did thus hold ing his ground against all comers, partly by brute force and partly by mental superiority, he was probably nearer to happiness than he ever was afterward. From court to court he rode his race horse, pistols in holsters, carry ing his gun and his pack of hounds, ready fof the courthouse, ready for the deer chase, ready for the shoot ing match, ready for the horse race, ready for the house raising and log rolling, rqady- to go out himself and drag into" the courthoure the des perado whom the sheriff . feared to arrest. - ... Eough and tumble times these we're in backwoods Tennessee, with rude arid lawless elements boiling and bubbling in that inevitable pe riod of unrest, and struggle which prevails in - border settlements be fore the community takes form and everybody - smugly- congratulates everybody else on .the "reign of law and order."..-::--. In just such a state of.:sqciety young Jackson was peculiarly fitted to lead, dominate and prosper. Had he gone eastward instead of westward, had he cast in his lot with the lawyers that we're striving for advancement in the cities of the original thirteen seaboard states, nothing' is more certain than that the world would never have heard of him. His lack of knowledge of the law would have made him. easy prey to those who were masters of this pro fession. His fiery temper would have kept him constantly in battle arrays and in fighting those lawyers who got the better of him in the ci tation of legal authorities he would, in the nature of things, have met the wrong man sooner or later. Watson's Magazine. . Two Famous Kisses. History has taken notice of some famous kisses. There was .that which Queen - Margaret gave to Alain Chartier over 300 years ago, the memory 'of; which is fresh in the minds of men if not on ' their' lips! Chartier was a poet, but he was the ugliest man personally in all "the sunny land of France." The queen, with her maids, one day found him asleep and, beading over him, kissed his dreaming tips.. Turning to her maids, she prc-ttily said: "I kiss not the man. I kiss the soul that sings." Two centuries later Voltaire, an other Frenchman and also a poet, was publicly k.ssed in the stage box of the theater by the young and lovely Countess de Villars, but iu his case the hidy gave the kiss not as a. voluntary tribute to genius, but in obedience to the commands of the claque in the pit, who, mad with enthusiasm f.ir the poet's "Me roDe." bade hur kiss him.
