Jo Hlmou held that the senate
did not adjourn on the memorable
Tuesday, that the resolution adopted
was Illegal. Wherefore he and the
Davis rump stayed. But on the 2d
of March he changed his mind. An
adjournment of a single house was In
order, because then he thought the
governor could appoint a senator.
Then Jo and Bourne quarreled.
Fact, though It Is not generally
known. Out of vengence Bourne
kept his Da vis rump together till
after the 4th of March, when a vac
ancy occurred In the office of senator.
Jo did not keep all his promises
with Jonathan, wherefore Jonathan
will be ready to do Jo up at the next
meeting. Does that fact In any way
influence the governor in his refusal
t to disregard the right of petition, and
his refusal to call an extra session?

This estimate is on the supposition

wool were thiee times as great, and

The evidence that the governor of
this state should call an extra sewilon
of the legislature is materially en
hanccd by the proposition of the an
thorlllcs of Multnomah and other
counties to wlthoold the state taxes
that may be collected under the as
sessments of lSlMi and 1897 and apply
the same to tho payment of county
Indebtedness. This Is directly in
conflict with the law and to farasth
county treasurer is concerned, h
will becrimmlnally liable if he is
guilty of so open neglect of duty and
will forfeit twenty per cent of amount
so withheld, as well as his office and

position. Let the governor of th
state do his duty In this matter rath

Examination of the subject discloses
thia facUn every detail and lead to
the Inevitable conclusion that the
condition of the revenue which al

corrected.
We find by the report of the secre
tary of the treasury that the reven
ues for the fiscal year ending June 30
1892, from all sources, were 425,868,
200.22, and the expenditure for all
purposes were 1413,953,806.00, leav
ing an excess of receipt over eip-eo
dltures of 19,914,454.16. During that
fiscal year, 40,670,567.98 was paid
upon the public debt, which had been
red oced since March I, 1890, 259,.
076,800, and theannual interest char
ges decreased 11,684,676.60.
the receipts of the government
1rom all sources during the fiscal yea
ending June 30, 1893, amounted to
385,818,629, and Its expenditure
1383,477,954, showing an excess of re
w lpts over expenditure of 2,341,674
Since that time, the receipt of no
fiscal year and with but lew excep
Hons, of no month of any fiscal year,
have exceeded expenditures.
ine receipts of the government
from all source during the fiscal
years ending june .10, ism, were
372,982,498.29 and its expenditures
H 12,605,758.87, leaving a deficit, the
ttrst time since the resumption of
specie payments of 69,808,260.58.
Notwithstanding the decrease of 1 6,
769,128.78 In the ordinary expences
of the government, as compared with
the previous fiscal year, its income
was still not sufficient to provide for
Its daily necessities, and the gold re
serve in the treasury for the redem
ption of greenbacks was drawn upon
to meet them. But this did not suf
fice and the government then resort
ed to loans to replentlsh the reserve.
In February, 1891, 59,000,000
bonds were issued and In the Novem
ber following a second Issue of 50,-
000,000 was deemed necessary. The
sum of 117,171,795 was realized by
the sale of these bonds, but the re
serve was steadily decreased until on
February 8. 1895 a third sale of 62,-
315,400 bonds for 65,116,244 was an
nounced to congress.
The receipts of the government
ror the fiscal year ending June 80,
189.), were 390,373,203.80 and the
expenditures 433,178,426.48, show
ng a deficit of 48,805,223.18. A
further loan of 100,000,000, was ne
gotiated by the government in Feb
ruary 1896, the sale netting Ml,
166,246, and swelling the aggregate
bonds Issued within three year to
202,315,400.
tor the fiscal year ending June 30
1890, the revenues of the government
from all sources amounted to 109,
475,408.78, while its expenditures
ere 434,678,754.48 or an excess of
expenditures over receipts of S,
205,245.70. In other worde the to
tal receipts 01 tne inree nscsl years
ending June 30, 1S86, were Insuffici
ent by 137,811,729.46, to meet the
total exjienditures.
Nor has this condition since im
proved. For the first half orthe pres
ent fiscal year the receipts of the
government, exclusive of postal rev
enues were 157,507,603.70 and the
tMH-nuiiures exclusive or the pos

37,902,390.40. In January of this
year, the receipts exclusive of postal
revenues were 24,316,994.29 a deficit
of 5,952,395.21 for the month. In
February of this year the receipts
exclusive of postal revenues were
24,400,997.38 and tho expenditures
exclusive of the postal service iS,

Mr. Corbett is an ideal candidato of
the goldbug school. He was senator
from '60 to '72 and filled the position
satisfactorily to the interests he rep
sents. He has never catered in a leg
islative way to the desire of the
people, always being first and fore
mot on the ground when a Portland
charter bill or a deal was to Ih forced
through the legislature. He exactly
represents the bosses of the re
publican parly, not the republican
people. As a senator he can lie de
pended upon to vote for and push
every scheme to further control the
people, to place Into (ho hands of a
few a power never to lie decreed by
the constitution. His actions in the
lobby of the Oregon legislature time
after time stamns him as a firm ho-
liever in the principle that pros-rty
instead of maority should control
legislation. From a banker's parlor
he steps into the I'nited .States senate
by npNjintmeiit to serve the inter
ests of a email class of men who are
dictating government to a mass of
people one hundred and forty times
greater. Will some republican far

mountain side. It appears utterly insignificant, until
a mouse, perhapn, starts it rolling, and the pebble be
gets an avalanche that buries a town. Fatal diseases
begin with "a slight cough." But any cough, taken
in time, can be cured by the use of
Ayer's Cherry Pectoral.
