CHANGE IN JUDICIAL
TSICTS.
DIS-
Tbe bar of Eastern Oregon advise that,
M soon at possible, the state constitution
be remodeled that it may be consistent
with the advanced condition of tbe Kate
at large. The so-oalled delays of tbe
law, they think, are not so much in tbe
way aB tbe luck of facilities for speedy
enforcement That we are bebiud tbe
times, go far as our state oonstitatiun is
concerned, is evilent to all, bat the de
maud for a new constitution baa not
become so general as to oanse our legia
lature to oall, in tbe near future, a con'
atitutional convention.
S. A. Lowell, an attorney of Pendleton,
in a icoent interview with an Oreuouian
reporter, gave some poiuts ontbecbanKe
of judicial districts in Eastern Oregon.
Besatdinparts: "Tbesixtband sventb
judicial districts of the state now com-
prise tbe counties of Harney, Malheur,
aker, Grant , Uuion, Wallowa, Umatilla
Moriow, Gilliam, Sherman, Wusco and
Crook, and in tbe two districts we now
have three judges, two in the sixth and
one in tbe seventh district.
"It is proposed to make out of tbe
two districts now existit.g, four districts
aa follows: Baker, Grant, Harney,
and Malheur to constitute one district,
and then in Judge Clifford resides and
would continne to preside over its courts
Umatilla and Morrow, to constitute one
district, nberein Jude Fee would oou-
tiuue to preside; Wasco, Sherman, Gil
liam and Oook to oonatitutflonedistriot
wherein Judge Brnduliaw would con
tinne to sit upon tbe benob; thus leav
ing the counties of Union and Wallowa
as the fourth district, wherein a new
oironit judge must be appointed, and a
like condition, of course, exists so far
as relates to tbe diutriot attorneys, at
least until after the June election ot
1891."
FOR BETTER COUNTY ROADS,
Throughout the United States tbe ag
itation for improved highways is in
creasing and there is every reason to
hope that great advances in this direc
tion will follow. The meeting tbls week
at Indianapulis, of Indiana advocates of
better couutry roads has awakened new
interval in tbe subject in that state.
But there is danger tbnt a wrung be
ginning will be made in this most prais
worlhy work. Indeed a wrong begin
ning baa been made in New York. A
bill reueutly passed tbe Albany legisla
ture that provides for a board of com
roiBhiouurs of state roods. This board
will be charged with the construction
and aalnleuance of highways outfcide ol
Oilit s i nd iui-'orporated towns and a Biwu
eugiuttr no have geueral snpeivit-jW
of the priiJostd system. Thus fatAa
bill is all sjulit, but in providing ff a
loan of 81U,00U,0C0 to carry on tbe wf rk
it makes a departure from established
cuatom in road-making that has no'
aloue tbe sanctiou of immemorial limine
but of sound economic reason as well.
It haB been tbe general practice in some
portions of the east, to apply iu oonnlry
roud muking tbe same principal thai
bus governed iu tbe construction and
tuainti'iiauoa of the public streets. The
coM, in one fomi or othtr, bus been
assetsrd hgainst the land in some rela
tion to tbe beneiita conferred by tbe
improvtmeut. Such mi act would not
bo considered sound iu a "sparsely 0
settled country," as the roads are com
mon to the use of the public and il
Would be nnjust to assess tbe cost ol
making to the lands living adj .oent un
less the state devised some method, after
tbe improyemeut has ben once made,
to keep tbe road iu repair. We ate
rather favorable to the plan proposed by
the Indiana congress and should be
pleased to hear of similar aotious in
Oregon. The Dalles Chronicle.

tbe Columbia at Celilo by meana of a
canal or ship railway to be put in by tbe

THE "BHITANNICA".
A Few Interesting facta About That Ite
niarkable Work.
There is no Biioh literary work in the
EugliBh language.or soy other language,
equal to tbs famous Eucyclopedia itrit
anuica. It is uo mere figure ot speech, no
mere rhetorical flourish to say of it that
it is a library ot llself, for that is prions
ly what it was intended to be, nothing
more, ni thing leas. Il couipriea2olarge
volumes, averaging 8(30 donb'e oolnmn
pages each; it has 671 maps, 237 ot them
colored ; it onntains 26.C00 topics, alpha
betically arranged; end it Is eruhelln-bed
by over 9,000 illustrations, plates and
diagrams. Of course, all people of any
intelligence whatever, know something
in a general way of tbe excellence ot this
world renowned work, but few even
among tboB who are above the average
in point of knowledge and understand
ing realize tbe scope, merits, and immen
sity of this "king of encyclopedias". How
many, for instauoe, among even profes
sional people, are aware that this incom
parable work embodies the best thongbt
of over 1,100 of the leading scholars
historians, professors, doctors, inventors,
etc., of tbe world, men ot mark and of
eminence, who have won the blue ribbon
of distinctiou in their respective spheres?
But few even among scholars are aware
that it has cost about $3,000000 to bring
it to its present stacdurd ot completeness
ami perfection.
Auio' g tbe 25.000 topics above alluded
to, what is tbe probability ot even a
well-read man naming a subjeot tbat
could by any stretch of imagination
be called "important" that will not be
found io its panes? It Contains a full,
abte, and impartial history of every na
tiou; it has a comprehensive biograph
ical sketch of every illustrious man,
whether Slue, statesman, conqueror, ex
plorer, poet, musician, sonlptor or re
former; it embodies very excelleut treat
ises ou all scientific Bubjects;it is in abort
what it has been aptly called, tbe su
preme court of literature.
Appletou's New American Cyclopedia,
usually considered as rating next to tbe
Britanuioa, comprises 10 volumes, con
tains 60 million ems, printer's measure
ment, and ooBts $96. The Britauuioa
oom prises 28 volumes, 140 million ems
and costs at publisher's regular rates
from SI?5 to over 82 JO. Prices like these
are explauution enough of toe faot tbat
few families bave been able hitherto to
afford the luxury of such a wuik of ref
erence, confessedly valuable aud indis
pensable as it is. But tbe Oregoninn
edition (which has been brought down
aB nearly aa possible to tbe present date
while the original was pablished in
1887) is offered to tbe pnhlio at the
surprisingly low rates ot $19, $63, $77
aud $84 per set, according to binding,
and the amoumts may be paid in easy
installments.

NEW TAX LAW.
From the Telegram.
New York has made an experiment in
taxation thai has proved a suocess. Tbe
law w ill probably soon be adopted in
other states. It is called tbe inheritance
tax. Oue of the great aud grave ques
tions of the day is bow to r qualize taxes
and ligb'er, the burden ot the average
oitizen. There is a strong sentiment in
many portions of the nation favoring an
income tax, aud the feel.ng is growing
rapidly. Fully a thiid of tbe preseut
congress aie raid to favor it.
Not quite ready j adopt tbat, New
1'orK baa tried the inherits oe plan.
w hich is next door to it. During tbe five
years of Its operatiou it has turned iuto
tbat state treasury about $7 .000,000, bile
during tbe year which ended iu Septem
ber fully $2,000,000 was colleoled. Tbe
law applies to both dirtot and Collateral
luheritnuoes, tbe tax on the first beiug 1
per cent and ou the latter 5 per ceut
Jay Gould's estate brings into the coffers
the snug little sum of $700,000. The
amouut to be realized for this fi-ioal year
will henoe probably reach $2,500,000.
What a help that will be to tbe 6tate,
aud yet nobody feels it, aa it comes after
a mau is dead, aud it could not, of course,
be forthcoming uultss a huge fortune
was led, 90 or 95 per cent for the heirs.
Tbis law reaches and tquabzrs personal
property, wlnob usually e-capes the bur
den it should bear. Tne l-w exempts
$10,000 ot eaob iubeiitkiioe, hence ouly
I lbs large estates are effected, and they
can well afford it. So sbnndant has
been the harvest, and so beneficial the
effects, that several states are preparing
to pass like laws immediately.
Here is a suggestion for the next Ore
gon legislature. Why not try il here?
It would certaioly be quite a help to the
state iu meeting tbe demands on its
treasury.

One reason why Scott's Emulsion of Pure Nor
wegian Cod Liver Oil and ilypophosphites of Lime
and Soda has had such a large sale is because it is
"Almost as palatable as milk;" but the best reason is
that its curative properties arc unequalled. It cures
the cough, supplies the waste of tissues, produces
flush and builds up the entire system.
Scott's Emulsion euros Coughs,
Colds, Consumption, Scrofula,
and all Anaomio and Wasting
Discaocs. Prevents wasting in
children. Al;no-t as palatable as
milk. Get on:y the genuine. Pre
