Saen-Monte, the sacred.

A Mexican correspondent Of the
Nashville american writes: "lmme-
diately back of Ameca-Meca, rising
from the midst Of great green valley
of the same name-a veritable
Sleepy Hollow, surrounded by hills
and overshadowed by the twin vol
canoes-rises the Saen-Monte, like a
huge wart, several hundred feet above
the plain. In this land OF mountains
nearly every city has its Calvary CT
Holy Hill-but, next to Guadalupe,
near the City of Mexico, this OF
Ameca-Meca is most prominent in the
religious history of Mexico. The
famous Frsy Martin Valencia,
one Of the country's twelve
apostles" once lived in cave in
the heart OF the Saen.Monte. The
Indians, far and near, greatly loved
this good father, and every year i'm
mense crowds made pilgrimage to
his rocky sanctuary. 1t is related
that the pious Fray tanned the widest
animals OF the adjacent heights, as
well as the little creatures of the
woods, SO that they all came at his
bidding and even lived with him in
the cavern. The birds, too, knew the
gentle father, and gathered in great
numbers to sing their sweetest songs
at the entrance to his gloomy abode.
He died at last, in village forty
miles away, whittier he had gone on
an errand of mercy; but the Indians
brought his body in solemn process
sion to the Sacred Mountain, and
buried it in its cavern home, which
has now become the camarilla of
shrine.
"Within this dim little chamber is
a fearfully realistic image of the dead
Christ, which, so says tradition, was
placed there by Fray Martin himself
as early as 1927. Another legen as
serts that a bu-ro (Mexican Donkey
carrying images to the Cathedral at
Pueblo, broke away from his master
and found his way to this cave, where
he patiently waited for some days,
with the dead Christ upon his back,
till Father Martin came and unloaded
him; and so the good Fray believed
that the mule was divinely sent to de-
posit the image in this particular
shrine.
Like others near to Natures heart,
whose uncultivated minds are like
fallow fields, these simple people
furnish excellent soil for the growth
OF superstitions. A tiny seed OF it,
once sown in their fertile imaginations,
speedily attains such sturdy growth
that nothing can uproot it. Doubt
lese such was the case with the deni-
zens Of Nazareth, Judea and Galilee
some eighteen centuries and half
ago.
1.-THE dead Christ above referred to
is certainly marvellous work being
the lghtest life size image in the
world, for though large as man, it
weighs scarcely two pounds. 1t is
believed to have been made of the
pith OF cornstalks, prepared and ce
mented by some sort of gum imper-
vious to the air, but by whom it was
made, or by what mysterious process,
no human being knows"

People just now in Constantinopl lie
are interested in the presence among
them of Kara Fatma, the redoubt-
able female warrior of Kurdistan, who
has come on brief visit to the Turk
ish capital. Her deeds of provinces
date back to the beginning of the
Crimean war, when she led large
band of Kurdish volunteers, who
fought with singular daring for Tur-
key. The Ottoman Government re-
members her services, and reqhites
them by monthly pension
of 5000 piasters-a sum that
in her own frugal home allows
her to live with ease. She is tall,
thin, with brown, hawk-like face /;
her cheeks are the color of parchment
and scanned with scars. Wearing the
national dress of the sterner sex, she
looks like man of forty, not like a
woman who will never again see
seventy live. Slung across her shoul-
ders in Cossack fashion is her long
saber, with its jeweled hilt; decora-
tions shine and sparkle on her breast ;
while the stripes across her sleeves
show her to be a Captain of the Ot-
toman Army. Watching this fig
ure pass along the streets Of Stam-
boul, one is reminded OF an episode in
the campaign of General Lespinasse
in the Dobruja some little time be-
fore the allied armies landed in the
Crimea. While smoking and chatting
one day in his tent with several of his
brother officers, the General heard at
a far distance strange music, med
ley of drums and clarionets, tomtoms
and piercing human cries. Whence
came this weird minstrelsy? All the
men in camp turned out to listen to it
and discern it's origin, when over the
hills they saw band of some 30C
horsemen approaching them at full
gallop. At their head rode brown
faced woman with flashing eyes
and lissome limbs, the very picture
| of an Amazon. Vaulting from hel
saddle, she gravely saluted Genera
ILepinasse, and through an interpre
ter, she told him she had come tt
fight the Russians, both she and hel
brave Kurds being completely at hii
service. That night her men wert

so billited. They wanted their inde-

THE VETO POWER-

No other President of the United States has
ever gone as far in asserting and establishing
the one-man power as President Cleveland.
He has done far more in this direction in one
term than any other President has done in
two. This is not because he is stronger man
than any of his predecessors, but because he
is naturally arbitrary. reckless in exercising
authority and poorly informed as to the dis
tribution of powers on which the government
is based. II Mr.. Cleveland should be re-
elected President there is reason to believe
be would do more during his second term to
obliterats constitutional lines and change
established ideas of constitutional construc-
ton than any half dozen Presidents we have
had. His use of the veto power illustrates
his arbitrary methods and his fondness for the
exercise of personal power. Admitting the
necessity of apower in the executive to apply
some check to the absolute power Of the legis-
Iative department 1t should evidently BE-
guasdsdiy and spazingly used. The abuse Of

the veto power by George III was one Of the
causes of the American revolution, and was
the first Of the fsasons given in the Declare
ton of Independence for q separation.
Its free exercise by the colonial
Governors caused trouble and scandal.
In the Articles OF Confederation there
was no executive veto, and of tho orig
inal State constitutions only one, Massachu-
sets, gave its Governor even aqualified veto
power Four of the States Delaware. North Car
DINA. Ohio and Rhode Island. have never given
their Governors the veto power, and the rest
only under careful restrictions. The trainers
of the federal Constitution had great diff
Guilty in agreeing on the form in which it
should be embodied in that instrument. A
number Of plans were suggested, various
propositions were submitted, and there was
much discussion of the subject, all recognize
ing the necessity of some check on absolute
legislative power, yet showing extreme jeal-
ousy of the one-man power. The present
constitutional provision was finally agreed up
on, giving the President qualife' %
power, subject to be overruled by 3 go
thirds vote of each house of Congress. The
history of the government shows that the
early Presidents exercised the veto power
very cautiously and only for grave reasons of
public policy. Until 1880 there were only
nine vetoes, two by Washington. none by
Adams or jefferson, six by Madison and one
by Monroe. Since then the veto power
has been used more frequently, but never to
the extent that it has been used By Mr..
Cleveland. And it is rot only the frequency,
but the manner of its use by the present
executive. that should excite attention. It is
used on the slightest provocation as an asser-
ton of difference of opinion with Congress,
and as a. political and personal weapon.
Surely the trainers of the Constitution never
contemplated anything of this kind. The
early Presidents exercised the veto power as
constitutional prerogative, to be used very
rarely, very cautiously and only for constitu-
tional reasons. Mr.. Cleveland uses it as
vehicle for the assertion of his personal opin-
ions and as a club to enforce my policy"
He has already greatly perverted it from its
original and legitimate purpose and in four
years more he would probably make it a
means of greatly debauchiug the legislative
department of the government, and making :
dangerous inroad in the system of constitu-
tional checks and balances. He is too
ignorant man, and too fond of exercising ar
bitrary power to be safely intrusted with it.
No man is fit to be President who practices
craftsmanship with a club.

THE death of Emperor Frederick William
will end long and painful struggle, the end
of which has been plainly foreshadowed for a
long time. 1t is the inevitable come at last.
His father died March 8, and the sons death
will follow in . little more than three months.
As the reign of the former was the longest in
German history, that of the latter isithe
shortest. A biographical sketch Of the dead
Emperor appears elsewhere. He was just
and gentle man, and bad he lived would
probably have made wise and liberal ruler.
His policy, as announced in his letter &c to
Prince Bismarck, was based on broad prin-
ciples of peaceful progress. He was doomed
man when he came to the throne and the
physicians by the most untiring efforts, were
able to keep him alive only a little moro than
q month. His death makes Bismarck again
complete master of the situation. The new
Emperor. now in his thirtisth year, is thor
ough Hohenzollern and an absolutist of the
narrowest and strictest sort. His policy will
be that of Kaiser William, only, If possible,
more military aud more restrictive. He is
not particularly popular in Germany now,
and not likely to trouble himself to achieve
popularity. He will be content to rule by
divine right He is not healthy, and can
hardly look forward to long reign.

was SO very small He says it was owing to

seem to be clear and satisfactory explana-

cessful Democratic candidate for Congress,
gives different reason. He says: II attrib-

adopted at the Democratic State convention.
The result of the election shows that Oregon
does not want free trade" There is reason to

one.
