TWO TIMBER DECISIONS.
Two cases of the United States '
vs. Weidler & Ordwav came up in
the United States circuit court on
the 7th, says the Oregoniun on
demurrer to the defense.
The first case was brought to re
cover 72,000 for timber cut on
the lands of the United States and
brought to Portland and converted
into lumber. The second was to
recover $7,500 for timber cut on
the same lands and made into
cord wood. The defendants set
up two defenses one that the land
was the property of the Northern
Pacific railway company, being a
part of the giant of the government
to that company on the route of its
road between Portlindand Wallu
la Junction and that they cut the
timber thereon by the leave and
consent of said company.
The becond defense was that,
however it may be as to whose the
land is, they cut the timber in
good faith, believing that the land
belonged to the company, and
therefore, not being willful tres
passers, thoy ought not to pay any
more than the value of the timber
in the tree.
There was a demurrer to these
defenses by the plaintiff. The
demurrer was sustained as to the
first defense on the ground that
the company had no such right or
interest to any section of the land
included in its grant prior to the
construction of the road opposite
thereto as authorized it to waste
or despoil it by disposing of the
timber thereon. It was overruled
as to the second defense on the
ground that if the parties acted in
good faith, as the- alleged, they
were not liable for any more than
the value of the timber in the
standing tree.
This will cut the damages down
to about $3,000.
"Wretched. Indeed.
Are those whom a confirmed tendency (o
biliousness, subject to the- arious and
changeful symptoms indicative of liver com
plaint. Nausea, sick headache, constipa
tion, furred tongue, an unpleasant breath, a
dull or sharp pain in the neighborhood of
the affected organ, impurity of the blood
and loss of appetite, signalize it as one of
the most distiessing, sis it Is one of the most
common, of maladies, There is, hoe tr, a
benign specific for the disease and all its un
pleasant manifestations If is the concur
rent testimony of the public and the medi

The Interstate Oommission.
New York, March 7. A Wash
ington dispatch says: It can be
said on high authority that three
members of the interstate com
merce cemmission are absolutely
decided upon. The president is in
doubt regarding the two remain
ing selections. William R. Mor
rison has accepted the tender of
the commissionership, and prob
ably will be the chairman of the
commission. Judge Cooley, jof
Michigan, receiver of the Wabash
system, and General Bragg, of Al
abama, will also be commissioners.
The former is a Republican,, and
one of the ablest jurists of the
country. The latter will represent
thesonth.

Although pressure has been
brought to bear upon the president
to induce him to approve the river
and harbor bill, and strong argu
ments have been made and cases
cited to establish authority for the
executive to sign any bill within
ten days after the adjournment of
congress, it is authoritatively stat
ed that the president will not ap
prove the bill.
Distress After Eating.
This result of indigcstionwill no longer
be experienced If Simmons Liver Regu
lator is taken after each meal. It is
such a good digester, and so.jnild and
pleasant in its effect that it is used by
many, after a hearty meal, to insure
digestion. The Regulator does uot nau
seate or irritate the stomach, but cor
rects acidity, dispels foul gases, allavs
irritation, and assists the stomach in
its digestion,

But He "Won't Do It.
It seems a reasonable construc
tion that the constitution gives the
president ten days in every case to
consider all bills before acting on
them, and this without reference
to whether congress continues in
session or not. It also gives con
gress the right to override the veto
if he makes it in the ten days, but
congress may waive that right by
an earlier adjournment. They
thereby simply leave the fate of
the law in the president's hands.
They cannot by adjournment waive
the president's right, however, to
ten days' consideration. The presi
dent is always in session. lie
never adjourns even to take a
drink now-a-days. The consti
tution provides that all the grant
ed legislative powers shall be
vested in the congress of the
United States. It provides there
by that their concurrence makes a
law after the president signs it.
The only condition is that the
president shall consider it ten
days. If he approve it he shall
sign it. It would seem a reason
able construction, therefore, to
hold that if the president sign it
within the ten days (even after ad
journment) it will be a law. It
would be a law after the ten days
in that case also without his sig
nature, were it not for the express
inhibition of the constitution that
in the last named case it should
not be a law. Democrat.
