of the waste of time in both houses and wonders what is the eausl:'
the general stagnation.
The cause is not difficult to find. It goes directly back to the
original organization and the committee appointment.
What sort of time would a Southern Pacific train make, if the
Pullman conductor were put in as engineer, the engineer put in
charge of magazines and newspapers; the brakeman given the job of
fireman, and a ticket agent put in charge of the train.
The passengers on such a train wuold be lucky if they arrived at
Uieir destination in a week. A general smash-up would not be sur
prising. Schedule time could not be expected.
So with the present legislature, particularly the house. Almost
without exception men have been placed in charge of committees
who have had no experience with the questions referrd to those
committees. Also it so happens that men best qualified for important
positions have been thrown into the discard. '
Naturally there is general chaos and wasted motion. Nothing
better could be expected. The legislators are not incompetents in
dividually. The general average of personal ability ranks fairly
I.igh. But the available abilities arc wasted. The organization fails
to function properly because strictly speaking, there is no organiza
tion. Probably the legislature will muddle through without complete

AN OLD TIMER TALKS
The old cuss was a member of Jesao
Jamee- gang, before he hit Harney
county, and . when I got to his place
early In the afternoon, he was chasing
a bull around with a butcher knifo.
We squatted on the shady side of the
shack, and talked till way after sun
down. ; I knowed It was getting late,
and noticed he had built no fire for
upper, but I didn't like to butt Into
his business. About dark, be said:
"Let's eat my boyi" That hit me
about right, not feeding any Bince
breakfast We walked Into the littln
old kitchen, and be pulled out hair
, sack of onions, and said "Help your
self." He picked up an onion, and
bit into her, saying, "I ain't got much,
but what's mine Is yours." I gobbled
down an onion, and went to bed. I
aid to myself, "We'll have a good
breakast". For breakfast we had
more raw onions. I was still hope
ful, and rode out to round up Hill
Hanley's heifers. That night he
spread himself, and served a cup of
Arbuckle's coffee. To make a hios.
story longer, we bad nothing to eat
for four days but raw onions, and
were getting down towards the bot
tom of the sack. On tho fifth day I
started to weakon, and that night I
couldn't steep, I was that full of
onions. On the morning of the sixth
day, I think It was Friday, I ate half
an onion to bo polite, and rolled up
my blankets, and while I was tying
same on the back of the saddle, this
old side kick of Jesse James' came out,
and said:
"You ain't going away, air ye?"
: i said: "I thought I would trot over
to the John Day outfit this morning."
"It can't be that your dlsapplnted
with my grub," he asked.
' 1 said: "It's OK. as far as It Epos,
but a cowman, in the saddle all day,
can't buckaroo exclusively on onions,
and them raw. The John Day boys
might have some beans cooked up."
Ho asked for a chaw of plug cut,
and said:

day, when one of my own kind would

THE RAIN.
ITHN first tho rain began to pour, refreshing dale aud
dell. I stood and watched it from my door, and blessed
it as it fell; there 'd been no ruin for weary weeks, no swollen
cloud developed leaks; drouth stricken men hud eent up shrieks
for quite n little spell. It rained all day by starts and fits, it
made tho landscape wet ; it mado the greatest of all hits, it was
the one best bet j but when again tho morning broke, and rain
was falling as I woke, I said, "This thing's beyond a poke;" it
made me fume and fret. Next day the rain was falling still, as
though to earn its pay, and torrents rolled adown the hill anil
washed my fence away; frogs chanted in the dripping dawn,
ducks were swimming on the lawn and alligators and their
spawn arrived, as though to stay. "This thing," I said; "I can
not bear; it breaks this heart of mine; n written protest I'll pre
pare, and ask my friends to sign; we'll let the weather makers
know they (jan't abuso their patrons so; they'll make the water
cease to flow, and send us something fine." The rain still fell,
still getting worse; I grumbled and byhecked; if only this old
universe were run as I'd direct! I'm not consulted ns to rain,
or snow or drouth or hurricane; I make my .protests all in vain,
so what can wo expect t

Coast Baseball a Mess
PORTLAND, Ore., Jan. 17. In view
of the draft resolution adopted by the
Pacific Coast Baseball league at Its
meeting here over the protest of four
directors, the situation regarding the
obtaining of players from the majors
was declared by protesting club di
rectors as a mess.
The resolution, as adopted, prohibits
the league from accepting players on
terms under which the majors are
willing to send them out They can
accept players from the majors but
such players must be purchased out
right On the other hand, the majors have
forbidden their 16 clubs to sell play
ers outright to" the minors, but re
quire that all players sent on deals or
otherwise must be subject to draft.
That seems to block Interchange of
players quite effectively. The only
loophole for those clubs that still re
quire a few players to round out
their teams for next year is the pos
sibility that the major league mandate
doesn't apply to players promised on
deals completed last fall.
