A BUSINESS U VERN0R.
Oregf a Is suffering for wnt of a bu
siness governor one who will attend
Btrlctly to llio business of tbo Ptiite and
as strictly mind Ills own business ac
cording to the constitution. Tb is pa
per has contained some severe but de
served criticisms of Governor Peunoy
er. Tho sumo criticism would have
followed similar aoU by any governor.
Borne people are no doubt sy lug, Wliai
would you have a governor do ? Well,
how would It do for a irovernor to en
force the laws and enforce the obllga
tlous duo the state. It is the law ul
this stale that county treasurers shall
pay out of the first money iu theli
hands the taxes due the state. Vh
does not the governor euforce that law
Instead of allowing the state taxes to
bo scattered about In uucertaiu bank
to the amount of half a million dollars
In order to bo consistent be
should do that or udvlse the state
bard of equalization to make an extrti
levy of taxes HUfllcleut us he may think
to Bupply such banks with capital out
of the state funds. Nouo of the public
works can be completed this year thai
were provided by tho legislature be
cause tho taxes paid by the people are
retained by speculative county officials
and to bolster up more or less embar
rassed financial institutions.
The spirit of Andrew Jackson would
turn In its grave at such abuse of pub
lic funds. What Oregon needs Is a busi
ness governor who would direct the
attorney general to euforce the state
lawB whenever the state Is liable to suf
fer loss by the laws not belug enforced.
If the funds due the state wero where
they ought to be, If state laws were en
forced,then every public work provided
by the legislature could be carried for
ward and there would be employment
for all the idle mechanics of this state.
A poor school clerk who uses twenty
dollars of sobool taxes and cannot re
turn It, Is sent to Btato prison. The
rich banker who uses a hundred thou
sand Is not Interfered with by tho'state.

The American Protective Tariff
LeagUD In special and extruordluary

to tho earnest request of wugo earners,
unanimously agreed that It was neces
Bary to call upon tho press of tho Unit

to asalst In defeating tho proposed Wil
Bon free trade tariff, which is now be
fore congress, If this measuro becomes
a law, the demaud for labor iu all pro
ductive employment in this country
Will be decreased. This will reduce the
wages and earnings of every tri'in,
woman or child among us, permanent
ly lower tho staudard of living In this
country; aud reduce the purchasing
power of our wago earners who consti
tute tho great consuming force in this
land.
Every person, rich or poor, high or
low, old or young, who Is not In favor
of lower wages and leas comfort In life,
should at ouco ?rlto a postal ami to
the congressman ttom his or her dis
trict, protesting against the passage of
this bill and demanding that tho Mc
Kin ey tarllt be loft uuohauged. Write

UErRENCiUIENr IN TUB COUNTY.
The taxpayers will be very much
gratified at the step taken by tho city
council to reduce expenses about $5000.
The eamelluo of strict economy should
be takeu up in the affairs of Marion
county. No more huou bills us $18 and
$50 for printing what cau be had done
for $12 should be ullowed by the county
commissioner's court.
The county comuilsslonei's court also
incurred expenditures the past year of
$1200 for the ornamentation of the cir
cuit court room aud the eleguut private
apartments of the circuit judge, and a
$1000 attorney fee in tho big steal
bridge cape, that were not justllied
these hard times. While we believe
the judge ami couimissiouers are per
sonally honest men we believe they
have beeu careless aud made serious
mistakes iu these matters. The power
of granting of such claims should be
mine carefully exercised. The time is
past when any man can disburse $1000
f public funds without having beeu
irdered to do so by the great body of
the people. It is better to withhold or
4ruut the uuthorlty first than to hold
(jublio ullluiula responsible when it is
too late aud close the burn after the
lorse Is stolen.
DID irs UU1Y.
The city council did Its duty last
night iu starting the retrenchment or
lluauces so well along that it is lu
uuuiOent on tho new council to take
hem up aud make them luto actual
iaw.
It is a wholesome fact that while a
lew Populist politicians were iu session
Tesolutiug" for reform, tho city coun
cil brought about in actual legislation a
greater reduction of expense than these
leformers usked for.
It is to be regretted that these reduc
tions are necessary. But they are nec
essary. It is far better -but a few men
oe cut ofl thau that all warrants re
main at 15 to 20 per cent discount, We
sincerely regret any reductions In our
excellent police force and fire depart
ment but as one aldermau says it Is not
u matter of choice.

NOCTURNAL ANIMALS.
their Deficiency In Color Mnds Up by Pro
ficiency In Sound.
It is notewbrthy' that iri almost
every raco and climate tho colors of
nocturnal animals aro dingier and
gloomier than those of their diurnal
allies and representatives. This dif
ference is duo of course to sexual se
lection, which cannot exert itself
upon colors or spots in the darkness.
Tho butterflies, for example, aro beau
tifully arrayed. Their night flying
cousins, the moths, are dull gray or
whitish.
Day birds are often decked in bril
liant hues, like pheasants, toucans,
macaws and sun birds. Tho owls
and nightjars, on tho contrary, are
dull and inconspicuous. Our Eng
lish swift is just an aberrant hum
ming bird, who has taken to hawk
ing flies in tho northern twilight and
grown black accordingly. Most par
rots come forth gorgeous in red, blue
and yellow, but tho nocturnal New
Zealand owl parrot, whose name
sufficiently proclaims his skulking
nature, has acquired a coat of dingy
gray green, exceedingly like that of
many owls and goatsuekers, and so
on throughout. A creature so brightly
colored as tho blue faced mandril, or
tho great bird of paradiso, is always
sure to display his fine feathers or
brilliant decorations to his observant
mato in full flood of sunshine, while,
conversely, night roamers hke bata
and ratels and wombats and bears
are always remarkable for their un
obtrusive coloration.
Ono way exists, however, in which
nocturnal animals may mako an of'
fectivo display to attract their mates,
and that is tho system of phosphor
escent flash signals adopted by tho
glowworm and firefly. It may also
bo noted that an unusually largo pro
portion of noctural animals have
musical voices or mako loud lovo
calls.
Tho nightingale and nightjar aro
well known instances in point in
northern climates. Visitors to south
ern Europe will remember to their
cost tho tree frog and cicadas that
mako sleep impossible, while the
howler monkeys, tho laughing hye
nas and the screaming lemurs of tho
forest are equally familiar pests to
tropical travelers, All the loudest
an&n ',utjxpersistent voices ore voices
of tho night.
The whippoorwill and the katydid
aro as common in Massachusetts as
tho cuckoo in England, while tho
strident noises made by tho number
less insects, which rub their legs
against their sides so as to attract
their mates, effectually banish sleep
in many parts of tropical America.

Vegetable Diet.
Vegetarianism is often called a
fad.-but it is a healthy and innocent
ono and tho natural reaction against
tho present state of things. It im
parts lightness and elasticity to the
body, brightness and clearness to
tho mind. The vegetarians I know
aro all unusually strong, active and
young looking people for their ago.
Ono of them walked without stop
piug for 34 and another time 27
hours without rest while on an ex
cursion in Norway, feats not easily
equaled by the most inveterate beef
eater. Traveling, mountain climb
ing, all seem easier and less fatiguing
on this light and soothing diet, and
why should it not givo strength to
tho limbs and sinews if one reflects
that all tho strongest animals who
do tho heaviest work in tho world,
liko horses, oxen and elephants, aro
entirely herbivorous! Lady Paget
