The Kople are utill In favor of closer relations' with the United Btales, wild they will get what they want in that rcsjieet as soon as Re publican rule is restored in this country. The wheels of the Kentucky legis lature don't turn. When convened, there were on joint ballot !!8 republi cans mid fis democrat. SSince then one democrat died, leaving 3S to 37. Congressman Hunter received the republican caucus nomination, and it was thought that there would be no dillicutty in securing an election on the first day of tho Joint ballot, but 'one republican refused to vote till the deceased members place was filled. Hence the (lend lock. ECOXOMY ASI TALK. Just now there is much saying aliout legislative economy, which sounds very much like talking through big hole in the hat Wellington county is for practical economy, and her representatives al ways vote for binall appropriation bills. Yamhill county keeps us company. Rut Polk country is a trifle off. .She wants economy of ap propriations for the other counties, but hhe has a Mate school and her representatives always are ready for (he combinations. So is Benton county, with the (. A. C; Lane county has the 'utate university; iJouglas county, the soldiers' home; Marion county, .the institutions; Union county, a branch asylum ; Wasco county, a portage railway, which influences Umatilla; Multno mah always ha.1 a Job and is able to make the combinations. It seems that Multnomah, having pulled out tho bung-hole some years since, Is now trying to solder up the spigot. One of the papers of the city of Port land culls for retrenchment, and itemizes the salaries of mayor and coiinciliui'n, (10,000. Rut look at mother ilem interest (n boiuIT-ii debt, over 1 100,000. Yet the city would have (inciter Portland, would have frte bridges, would have city water, would have a Port of Port land, had to dredge the rivir, and some other things for which bonds had to be sold city hall for instance. A part of these were necessary, but now that the bonds are sold the int erest must be paid, and the city ought not to mpieal, ought not to lay the blame for the extravagance on us outsiders. It looks very much as though there is a Portland ring, that wants an extra session, in the liojte of getting a board of public works and a re-apportionment of thelstate, whereby Multnomah will get six more representatives, while Wash' ington will lowo one or divide with another county. Rut if Multnomah county really wants economy in state appropria tions and a cut in the salaries of county and city officials, such legist lion can be had when a delegation returned from that county favorable to those measures. reason Is obvious. These laws un covered this "intangible" property, and for no other reason were they re pealed by a truculent legislature on the recommendation of Oovernor Pennoyer and at the dictation of the moneyed interest of Portland. If these can not be re-enacted, such laws should be passed i as would en sure the assessment ot,"iutangib!e" as well as other property. If a law were passed that the complaint in an action to collect a note should specific ally allege that it had been assessed and the taxes paid or. same since its execution, there would then be less perjury in making returns to the ttHOHhOlTa. The taxpayers would be greatly re lieved, the money in the country kept in circulation by amending the law so that taxes could be paid semi annually. Money locked up in the treasury, an average of six months' time, when Interest, to secure it amounts to from 10 to 20 per cent, is an evil that should be remedied. These suggested changes In the present laws, and a partial repeal of many items in the general appropria tion bill amounting to possibly $100,. 000 would give needed relief to the over-burdened people of the state. Taxpayer. THE r. S. SENATE KOCTKISE. XO5B0E TIIEIK KE.MI'O.VSIBILITV. NEEDED LEGISLATION. The Rritlsli are again fortifying the Venezuela frontier, placing their works on the extremo western limit of the disputed strip. Venezuela and the United Statin, ns well us the civilized world, might as well uuder Htiiud, first us last, that the Knglish int( ml to have those gold mines or get whipped, and we might Just as well commence to prepare for whip ping them, or else, like cowards, back down and beg the pardon of those who will then be our lords and masters. After quoting Rep. II. V. (Jutes' resolution, raising a committee to en quire in the senate why house busi liess was hung up in that legislative chamber, w hich was adopted eighteen days before final adjournment, the Capital Journal comments: "The house has passed a number of n form bills which the senate simply ig nored. The houe showed in various ways that majority of that body Were disposed to keep their pledges. The house, eighteen days In-fore ad journment, called the attention of the Semite to the fact that it was not ex pediting reform measures, when, ana body, It could transact business much more rapidly than tho house. When it ignon-d Mr. Mutes' resolution of Inquiry, it put its foot in a trap from which some of its members are now ' howling loudly to extricate themselves." It is a nauseating mows that we are treated to by a lot of purists, who declare that "America must not en gage in war with Kngland 1-ecnuse they are the two christian nations." They are Unglish .sympathizers and KnglNIi poigMs. They would have us slink aw ay into a corner like cowards and allow Kngland to bully us, take our trade, occupy our terri tory, je r us, all because she is a chrisiian nation. Mnee when did she show forth her Christianity? Was it when Warren Hastings was Mu. Editor: As general legisla tion at an extra session is not to be expected it will I well to determine before hand what aro the Important questions that should be acted upon. As economy in the expenditure for officers' salaries and perquisites ami curtailment of appropriations for doubtful and uncallej for purposes is universally urged, there is every probability that these objects will be given a prominent position. It will be well to consider where reductions should be made and to what extent. Attempts to make such, other than conservative, will, in all probability, fail. Tho present salary system, like all attempts at making violent changes in long established systems by Intro, flucing untried experiments, regard lifts of eond if ions, hits proved a failure, A change proposed, for the avoweJ purpo-eof curtailing the expenses of carrying on state, county and munic ipal government has with the excep tion of Multnomah county material ly increased them. I think there is an increase to the taxpayer lor the offices of sheriff and clerk of an ex pense of at least one-fourth in, with that exception, every county in the state. There is a little Itetter show ing in tho office of recorder of con veyances, the ree Ipts of which ap pears to generally pay the salaries, The wor-t fealure of this law is that these salaries of sheriff and clerk are largely paid by parties not doing business with these olfices. All that could be required of non-liti gants, to assist jn providing courts in which to settle matters in dispute; but, under this salary law, nine tenths of the cost of every action or suit is paid by taxpayers, who in the nior-t of these cases have no interest whatever. The fee system was much more equitable, for then eople en gaged in litigation paid their own exenses. 1 lie in qtialiues in the pay rei-civcd hy these officers could have been, in nil cases, as it was in many, eaily removed tv reduction of fees where required. The principal rra son lor pressing I lie salary law was the exhortiitant ftf-a received in M iillnomah county by these nttUt-rs. A reduction of the ftsst would have secured the desired obji-et, without entailing a hardship upon the tax payers of other counties. If the salary law must lie continued iu its main feature, reduce them to suit the present hard times. Then collect the same fees as formerly paid and require the officer to pay them into the treasury, making the (tonal ly for non ay mi nt adequate to the Mr. Editor: As the Argus never tires of taking the republicans of the last legislature to task for their fail ure to enact needed legislation, it might be well for it to call the atten tion of its readers to the IlercuUan efforts of its democratic friends to perforin other than purely democratic duties during the days and nights of that much wasted session. What legislation did the democratic mem hers Initiate? They did their work as Kiiiticians. Threw atvay their voles for United States senator, the same as republicans, with less excuse, for they knew when casting them that they were complimentary, and nothing else. The best of them claimed no higher motive than to "beat I)olph," or as they in gamesters slang expressed themselves tolput the republicans in a hole," and deter mined that, as far as they were able, the session should be wasted to ac complish their purpose. Sacrific ing tho interests of the people In a weak and unpatriotic effort to secure a party advantage. There was and Is no good excuse why dem ocrats, republicans or jtopulists in the last legislature should have wasted their time for the purpose of airing their personal spite or securing ex Itected political advantages. All these parties are equally responsible for refusing or neglecting to pass needed legislation, as each party as an organization determined in their several secret caucuses to allow noth- Ing to be done, unless as these cau cuses should determine. Only when an extravagant appropriation bill came up were these democratic poll- ticlans ready and more than willing to hurry the same through, regard less of the general Interest of the iteo ple. Pledges of economy, so freely given U-fore theelection, were shame fully Ignored. Thousands of dollars wero worse than wasted by this act and the people will expect an explanation of the votes of their public servants on tills matter, without regard to the party or faotion to which they belong, Ihe democratic members took great credit for the part they per formed In the senatorial contest, without ever expressing a regret that it wasted the session; and it is use less for them to attempt to evade the consequences. If they continue to be influenced by no higher motives in the future, the calling of an extra session is, at best, of doubtful utility I-t us hope, however, it the gover nor shall - call the legislature together that their duties will lie jter- formcd as patriotic servants of the people rather than as toliticians, Then there w ill be no regrets Itooau-e of the exH-nses incurred of an extra session. These expenses will scarce! v by a tithe of the amount saved to the taxpayers of Oregon. Whether the different parties shall gam a toint in an extra session Is of less consequence than how its action may effect tho whole people. If the members of the legislature shall be governed by no higher motives than a desire to secure some party advan tage an extra session will be a failure. I.-t us hope for something better evi n if there is a possibility that this hope may be disappointed. KnfAi. JrsTK K. The San Francisco Call Is not ready to admit that Colorado has in India?

OX I) A cotemporary Is quoting a Utile history on tho appropriation hill of the last legislature, but it forgets to mention those several senate amend ments, all increasing the appropria tion, sent to t.'ie house for its concurrence. It Is surmised that the reason why certain members of the Multnomah delegation to tho legislature is so anxious for a special session is that they may create the proposed board of public works so a to get the city again In the ban-Is of t he ring, and to re-apportion the state under the new census that was taken hist summer. A I'ATKIOTIC STATEMENT. Of all the peace utterings of Amer ican societies, clubs or commercial organizations, nothing equals In sound, loyal, American sense ihe scech made by Dojiew Itefore the State Rar Association of New York last Tuesday. One paragraph is reproduced: "We have no fear of the countries south or north of us, and all the tranports and navies of the whole world could not land upon our shores an army which could march 100 miles ou the seacoast, or even return to its ships. Secure in our isolation; supreme in our resources; unequaled in our reserves and free Irom danger ous neighbors, we occupy among the nations of the globe a position so ex alted and safe that to compare us with other countries would lie ab surd. The statesman or the politi cian who really tears for the safety of this country is a fool. The statesman or politician who does not fear (be cause he knows better) and yet who preaches of our weakness and our vulnerability, is a demagogue, and ho insults the intelligence of the American people." This independence of location, Dr. Repew said, eminently fitted the United States for leadership in the great peace movement. The "Hroad Axe," of Eugene City. a populist organ, wants to know what has l-ceii done wilh n fl,oon campaign fund, placed in the bands of the populist executive committee of which Win. Spnugh is chairman. It seems as though the chairman of the state commit lee ami Ihe "Hroad Axe" people are quarreling. Spnugh wants to keep his party spotless from the world, while Amis wants to (use. Spain has recalled Cmnpn, governor-general of Cuba, and replaced him with Weyler. Weyler has had exiK-rience in Cuban campaigning, and has the reputation of ln-insr a fe rocious and savage commander. He, doubtless, will inaugurate a cruel policy which wiil in the end help the insurgents quite as much as the rainy season, which is soon to set in. Such a course would be almost certain to bring about a recognition of belliger ent rights by the United States. Rev. Wm. Rryan Hale, in the Jan uary horuin, pays his compliments to church entertainments. Jt is an article that every christian and church member ought to read. When he does he will think less of "Church sociables; admission 10 cents." Churches have to le supported and pastors maintained, but it is more economical to pay the money direct ly Into the treasury. It should not percolate through the "sociable," some of which are questionable. A KEl-lBLICA DFJNAM. passed California in the production of gold, or that such an event Is prob. able.

If the faction It voiced in the regular session, that then controlled ami may sun control the unner branch, persists in the same selfish arourary poucy mat. was then en forced, probably it is right. The committees in the senate w ere controlled by its friends, and the er sis.ent smothering, In committees, of bills passed by the lower house, where this faction was in the minor Ity, shows to what extent this control was carried by its unscrupulous man agers. Important bills were pigeon holed for weeks, to force members of the lower house to abandon opposi tion to a candidate for United States senator, whose friends appeared to have delermintd to wreck the repub Mean party if he could not be elected These leaders of the Rolph faction are more responsible than all others for the failure of needed legislation. They were under no pledges to their constituents toelect him or any other particular man for U. S. senator; but they were pledged io needed leg islation lot. king to economy and re form. These pledges were violated to secure the election of a man w ho, though an able politician! and one who in his official capacity had served the eop!e creditably, was not the choice of the republican voters of Oreg.tr; und no one is more aware of that fact than the able editor of the Oregonlan. Harmony in the republican party and nothing else, will ensure an hon- est money victory in the next sena torial contest in this state. Iet us have that harmony. Why not stop these unseemly bickerings. A rest from these abusive factional person amies is desired and demanded bv the Intelligence of the country.
