THE COHDOH CLOBL FRIDAY, FEBRUARY S, 1895. THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF GILLIAM COUNTY. OREGON. A WORTHY BILL. A bill has been introduced in the legislature, which ought to become a law, to take effect at once. The present law allows a juror in jus tice's courts only $1 a day and 10c a mile, each way, and witnesses 41.50 a day and same mileage. Of the two the juror has the most work and longest service, and there should be no descrimination. The bill reads as follows: ''That all jurors summoned to unnear before a Justice of the Peace. a city recorder when acting as ex officio Justice of the Peace, a cor- oner in holding an inquest over a I dead body, or before any other! court having like jurisdiction, shall i be entitled to an allowance of one dvdlar and fifty cents per day for ( each dav in actual service, and to ' the further sum of ten cents per mile in going to the place of hbld-j ing court and returning therefrom j to place of residence. In all cases j where a jury man is summoned to 'appear before anv of the courts j above numerated,' if rejected for ,' cause or otherwise, he shall be en-; titled to an allowance of one day's j service and mileage as above ppeci- v. i .it 4 . 4 j ' fied.

A justice of the peace hereafter, or as soon as the new law is ap proved by the governor, shall re quire the private prosecutor in a criminal action to give security for costs and disbursements before fil ing or receiving the complaint therein, in the amount authorized in civil actions, and not otherwise. This law is to be enacted owing to the fact that many irresponsible parties are repeatedly instituting actions on frivolous pretexts, re sulting in needless expense ; to taxpayers. A bill is before the legislature that will, if enacted, render Valid in other counties teacher's certifi cates issued in any given county. In the large counties of Eastern Oregon such a law would afford much relief to teachers, some of whom have to travel many inileK to examinations. Cases have been known where teachers have had to travel 150 miles in a storm and be out for expenses a month's salarv in order to obtain a certificate for a three-months' term.

The man who continues to sit down and paint the business sky in colors as dark as midnight should be invit ed to move on. Confidence and industry and not grumbling and idleness make business. The man who has given his brain to his work and whose hands are callous ed with labor has never had serious cause for complaint. Want of business confidence has been pro longed by undo agitation. The woes of the business world have been emphasized, in the halls of congress, from the rostrum, in the public press and upon the street corners until a once prosperous people have been almost led tobe- Keve that they are helpless, starv- i"g creatures in the midst of plenty. Let the country work its lungs less and its brains and elbowB more and there will at once be seen a perceptible improvement in busi- ness. Too many people are starv- ing to death loafing around stores and othr public places telling how nuch better they could run , the government, state, county and pre- cinct affairs. Such men never had a dollar they could call their own -and never will have until they go to work and do something else besides discussing their neighbors' faults.

That Portland has been "living ahead of her income" is shown from the fact that the bonded debt of that city sums up $54 per capita of its population, against $1.50 per capita in San Francisco. This is a case of "the hounds getting ahead of the game." ' .

Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder STA TE FD VCA TION. A few yfHrs ago, in response to the importunities of a certain cIhss of "eln CRtort" ami persons moved by loon I in terests, tiie legislature of Oregon fool ishly permitted everal so-called normal school g to advertise themselves m state inxtitutions. It was urged that it would cost the Btrtte nothing, and that, by making them state institutions in name, it would give them a, standing that would materially benefit them, enable them to improve, attract pupils and generally promote the work of educa tion. Despite the warnings of those with prescience enough to see the out come, that it would be but a short time before a stale school would piteously plead for state aid, and later imperious ly demand it, the legislature yielded to the importunities and bestowed the state's name upon the schools. Other schools then demanded equal recognition and received it. Solemn promises made on the floors of the house and senate have been violated, aa predicted, ami the Mate has been constantly importuned for money to aid these schools. Now this money is de manded as a right, aud all who oppose the giving of it are branded as the ene mies of education ami as opposed to free schools for the common people; yet the very effort to maintain thete alleged free schools for the common people is one of the reasons why the schools where the common people, in fact, have their only chance to secure an educa tion are not to.hiy giving them as full an opportunity as they should have. The whole theory of our schools is wrong. We are (spending the major part of public money upon the minority of pupils. While public monw is being appropriated to maintain state univer sities, agricultural colleges and normal schools, whose henetits are received only by a favored few, thousands of the chil dren of the common people are denied the opportunity to attend any school whatever. Even in Portland money is expended upon an ornamental roof that would better be applied to the founda tion and walls of the educational struc ture. The small per cent of children who can attend the high school are hav ing money lavished upon them that should be used to improve the lower grades, where the multitude receive their only education. In the state at large it is preposter ous that thousands of dollars of public money should be given annually to al leged state schools, where the benefits reach an infinitely small proportion of the youth of the state, and thousands of children should be denied an oppor tunity to attend any school whatever. If state money is to be appropriated for school purposes, let it be given to the common schools, where the duty of the state to give its youth a common-school education is not now fully performed. It is said that of the 153 clerks at Salem 111 are employed by the senate and 42 by the house. Just what work thirty senators can find for 111 clerks is the one thing that uo one seems to know. Chronicle. As the people along the seacoast of China are said to be beginning to use Pacific Coast flour to the displacement of rice, there promises to be a big market for the farmer and his wheat by and by. There are men in our legislature who are shouting "economy," re fusing to take a paper or two, and then hiring clerks for committees who have nothing to do but draw their pay. Salem Post. The deadlock still continues at Salem. If there is a man in the state who does not now think that United States senators should i e elected by the people, let him stand up and be counted. lne law compelling the pay ment of fees in advance has put a stop to much senselese and expen sive litigation, and is proving a boon to the taxpayers in that re spect alone : " About the only bill the majority of the representatives will succeed in getting through at Salem this winter will be their board bill. The Oregon legislature costs the people $3 a minute and they are now paying dearly for the election of a U. 8. senator. The deadlock in the Washington legislature is broken at last and John L. Wilson was elected U. S. senator. It is now estimated that the revenue from the income tax will amount to $50,000,000 per year. A bill is before the legislature to prohibit the sale of cigarettes in the state. It should pass. : The Salem Post is one of the best-edited and in the state. brightest papers The exposure to all sorts ami condi tions of weather that a lumberman is called upon to endure inthecamps often produces severs colds which, if not promptly checked, result in congestion or pneumonia.
