E. W. Hadley, Receiver.
'People coming to town from the
country and city people who try
to drive in the country agree that
the toads are in the worst condi
tion known for many years at so
late a date in the season. The
unusual rains have kept the
thorrmfrliffr" in nearly as bad
si.ape os they are in mid-winter.
Consequently there is much talk
airiut road improvement every
where. The East Oregoninn draws this
p'-allol: "Governor Pennoyer is
awaiting the decision of the su
preme court of the State before
putting a law, which is suspected
of Jiing unconstitutional, passed
'"fiv the late legislature, into effect,
while at the same time demanding
that President Cleveland be im
peached for awaiting u decision of
the supreme court of the United
Htntenon the constitutionality of
th Geary law before authorizing
its enforcement. You 'pays your
money and takes your choice' in
deeding which is . the greatest
'enemy to this country."'
There is no disposition shown by
the people of the Pacific coast, in
general, to be unjust to the Chi
nese, but there is a strong feeling
that they should conform to the
law. A law not only legally pass
ed by congress but judicially de
cided to be constitutional. It is
well not to make undue haste iu
ita ftTooiiiion. hut those in author
ity should be firm in insisting
ii "iv -mi. -
upon compuauce tnerew ho. j.ne
notorious ignorance of the Chinese
about our customs ana manner u
enforcing laws suggests the pro
priety of patience with the Celes
tials, until they have had time to
realize the situation and act; but
too much forbearance will in time
cease to be a virture.
