Bonds
If Issued Will Bo Sold to

New York, Jan. lf. Members or
tho government bond syndicate re
ceived In tho mall this morning u
circular letter from J.P. Morgan &
Co., releasing them from their com
mittment to furnish tholr pro rata of
$100,000,000 in gold, and a second $100,
000,000 If desirable, taking payment
in the four por cent government
bonds.
Tho reasons given for tho disso
lution of tho syndicate are that the
syndicate contract called for a bid for
"all or nono," and therefore Morgan
was unwilling to mnko a bid under
the present circumstances as ho might
seem to press for consideration by tho
secretary of the treasury the throw
ing out of smaller bids made in good
faith under tho publlocall. Morgan
Is satisfied that thore is no quostlon
as to tho success of the loans.

London, Jan. 15 Mr. Wlltz nnd
other friends of John Hays Hammond
the American mining engineer, a
incmper of tho reform committee of
Johannesburg, under arrest there on
a charge of high treason, called upon
the United States embassy today.
Wlltz had a long Interview with Unl
the States Ambaudor liayard. Tt Is
understood dial Wlltz declined the
United States was Inadequately rep
resented In the Transvaal and urged
another appointment.
Secretary Olncy's Instructions re
garding the request to bo mado to the
government of Great Britain topro-
vide for tho protection of Americans
in the Transvaal, was communicated
yesterday to tho secretary of state for
the colonics, Joseph Chamberlain,
who Immediately said: '"We shall bo
very glad to use our good olllees In be
hair or the United States." Shortly
arterward a brief formal note wns re
ceived by Bayard, In which Chambor
luln, In most kindly terms, repeated
the ithsurauce that Great Britain
would do whatever was possible to
protect Americans In tho Transvaal.
It Is learned that oluclal communi
cations have been sent to the United
States embassy today Indicating a
much better Htate of alTalrs regarding
Venezuela.
The Belgian government, in .addi
tion to tho United States government,
has risked Great Britain to watch tho

London, Jan. 15. Tho Globe says
It thinks the pacific complexion of
tho Venezuela situation Is duo to
Emperor William, adding:
"Tho moment tho German sword
rattled, Brother Jonathan ceased to
linger his revolver. Secretary Olney's
appeal regarding tho Transvaal,
coming from tho author of the en
largement of the Monroe doctrine, Is
an olive branch, Nor has reciprocity
In friendship been lacking on our
side."
An editorial In the Times repeats
that the only part In tho Venezuelan
controversy, upon which England can
concede nothing Is the retention of
tho bona fide settled districts under
British sovereignty.
SirGcorgo Baden-Powell, who was
tho British member of tho Behrlng
sea Joint commission, writes to tho
Times suggesting that Great Britain
follow the successful Behrlng sea
precedent and Invite Venezuela to
appoint two representatives to meet
two British representatives and form
a joint commission.

In the principal Salem market
dressed hogs arc hoisted up out of tho
farmer's wagons and then mounted
on a single-track railroad when they
disappear In the meat market and arc
hidden out of sight. "That's the
way," said an old farmer, watching
tho porkers as they wcro elevated nnd
slid away, "we elevate a man Into
public prominence. Ho gets a pass
over the railroad and that's tho last
wo hear or seo of him as a reformer."
The optimist has a hard tlmo now-a-days
trying to maka farmers look
chcorful. Ono or these was congratu
lating a Waldo hills farmer on his
abundant crops. But there wub no
good market, tho farmor replied. But
you have plenty to cat, said the
optimist. That's true said tho far
mer. "Wo mod to eat what wc
couldn't sell, but now wo have to eat
the whole cheese." Tho optimist took
a slldo towards the other end of town
and has not been seen since on tho
market place.

to any mercenary clement. For one
third of a century Its editor has con
scientiously hammered away In tho
interest of good government and for
tho development or Oregon. Ho has

At a club dinner tho other night ho

THE DOND HABIT.
Let's have a law authorizing bonds
for pormanent roads by tho next legis
lature. If, later, It Is deemed ex
pedient ror the state to contribute a
share or tho cost or such roade, In
order to help tho poorer and n.oro
sparsely settled districts, this may bo
provided ror by succeeding legisla
tures. Tho country ought to swear olf on
the bond habit before tho year Is
much older.
The second paragraph Is a good
roply to tho first. Both aro from tl.o
Salem Statcsmnn a few days apart.
Wo don't want good roads bacly
enough to bond the counties, or t! e
stato or tho nation. Good roads pry
ror thomsolvcs every year. Thoyccn
not be loft for future genentlonH to
pay for.
EXTRA SESSION TALK.
Some Good Men aro in Favor of Calling
the Legislature.
Orcgonlan, Tun. 15,
Tho extra-session talk has elicited
many uncomplimentary rcmarksabout
tho legislature as now constituted.
Ono man said teday: "I would not
havo any confidence In the present
legislature cutting down expenses In
any way If cycry member would sign
a written guarantee." Another busi
ness man, well known among poli
ticians, said: "Certainly wo need
such relief as could bo given by tin
oxtra session of tho legislature, but
what can wo expect. Look at tho
equalization board that has Just
adjourned. Tho members or that
board aro about as good as tho mem
bers of tho legislature, and thoy havo
not only Just bled tho state ror 310
per day each ror 30 days, and mileage,
but they hnd tho brazen oirrontry to
employ clerks nnd vote them 910 per
day each, and a page M per day. Tho
clerks employed cannot earn over $3
pcrdnyntanythlngcl.se, nnd tho em
ployment or a page was simply n
donation. Anil even tho reporter
lushed to give tho nctunl expenses or
that board. Secrotary Coalldgo really
received $1 10. I Iwllevo Coolldgo is In
session yet."
Representative Craig, rrom tho
Waldo Hills, docs not feel it Incum
bent upon him to defend tho last
session of tho legislature, nnd believes
much good might bo done by an extra
session. Before a cull is made, ho
suggests that correspondence bo
opened with tho members and a call
mado only upon pledges rrom each
member.
Mr. Craig was ono of tho irost
faithful and conscientious monibcrt
of the legislature and thoro is no
doubt but that 11 majority of tho
lower houso would keep any pledges
thoy mado, oven at an extra session.
Mr. Craig has somo respect for tho
representative principle and n feeling
of responsibility to tho people. Ed. J.
