AN EXTRA SESSION..

As one OF the results of the
Democratic success in the Eastern
States on Tuesday, it now seems
certain that an extra session Of
congress will be called at once.
There are many important meas
ures which the Republican party
has undertaken that will necessi-
tate long debates. and if the as
sembling of congress is postponed
until after the holidays there will
scarcely be time to pass them be-
tore the term of this congress ends.
The next congress having a demo
cratic majority, will, of course, be
out of harmony with the admins
tration, and nothing then can be
effected. One of the important
measures is the arportionment of
representation under the new CEN
sus, and another is the passage of
the Lodge Election bill. The
democratic party would be very
glad to postpone the reapportion-
ment until alter the next presiden-
tian election for the reason that,
according to the new census, the
republican states have made such
gains in population that they have
almost sure control of the electoral
college. If, therefore, the aDpor-
tionment is not made by the pres
ent congress the democrats may
find some excuse for not making
it at the first session of the next
congress and the matter will be
delayed until 1893 For this and
for other reasons an exta session
of congress seems inevitable and
it is probable that the president
will call it in a few days.-San
Jose Mercury.

SKINS ON FIRE.
With Itching, Burning, Bleeding
Eczemas Instantly Relieved
by Cuticura Remedies.

O,lr little son will be four years of age on
the 25th inst. In May 1855, he was attacked
with very painful breaking out of the skin.
We called in a physician, who treated him
for about four weeks. The child seceived
little or no good from the treatment, as the
breaking out, supposed by the physician to
he hives i'll aggravated form, became
larger in blotches. and more and more dis
tressing. We were frequently obliged to
get up in the night and rub him with soda
in water, strong iniments, etc. Finally, we
called other physicians, until no less than
six had attempted to cure him, all alike
failing, and the clf:ld steadily getting worse
and worse until about the Goth of last July,
when we began to give him CUTICURA Re-
SOLVENT internally. and the CUTIcURA and
CUTIGURA SOAP externally, and by the last
of August he was so nearly we'll that we
gave him only one dose of the REsoLyENr
about every second day for about ten days
longer. and he has meyer been troubled since
with the horrid malady. In all we used less
than one half of bottle of CUTICURA RE-
SOLVENT, little less than one box of CUTI-
CURA, and only one box of CUTIcURA SOAP.

PERHAPS it is all right to let the
democrats have control of the next
house of representatives after all.
One term of their obstruction and
mismanagement will pms the coun-
try in good humor for the election
of a republican president in 1892,
and the return of a straight repub-
lican president in 1892, and the
return of straight republican

often found-to be blessings in dis

BETTER co UNITY ROADS.

Good country roads are invalua-
BILE to every community, and the
rapid increase in improved road
making throughout the United
States is due to the appreciation
on the part of the rural residents
of this fact. Good roads cost a
little to build, but the investment
always pays. The value of the
property is increased, and the re-
duction on the wear and tear on
wagons and teams is enormous.
The greater ease with which the
products of the farmer may be
marketed, and the increased facili
ties for getting about, which good
roads give, are now fully appreci-
ated by the agriculturist. Better
roads are a product of this age of
improvement. There is no farm
on a poor road which is not in
creased in value if a good road is
built near or abutting it.
Street pavements in cities al
ways pays a large percent on the
investment by the increased sell
ing valuation of the property, and
the rule is equally applicable in
the country. Their cost is slight
compared with the immense bene-
Ifits.-TOledO Blade.

THE EXPENSE OF PUBLISHING
THE NEW La VS..

The coming legislature is to pass
on some very important legislative
measures and its final action will
be looked to with much interest
on many important measures.
While the assessment question is
of paramount Importance, yet go
ing hand in hand with it as, far as
the benefit to the public IS con-
cerned, is the question of publish
ing the laws. When new laws be-
come laws the people should be
informed and no cheaper method
can be devised than through the
newspaper. From All economical
standpoint it is of the very great
est Importance. The cost of pub
lie printing for the state Of Oregon
approaches $4,000 yearly, and the
direct benefciaries of this large
sum are less than 1000 persons.
An estimate has been made that
all of the general laws passed at
the session of 1888 can be publish
ed in all the principal newspapers
of Oregon for less than $4,000 per
year. While it costs $4,000 to
do the printing for less than 1000
persons-it will cost only $4,000 to
dispense information to 312,446
peopIe-being the total population
of the state. Not only that but
Objectionable laws can be at once
discussed through the very jour-
nails publishing them and the true
intent of the law learned. There
is no reason why every man, wo-
man and child in Oregon should
not have access to every new law.
At present the metropolitan press
alone are enabled to publish the
laws since that press alone can
bear the expense. There are 13O
papers in Oregon circulating in
every part of the state. There
are only few daily papers and
they do not circulate in the rural
districts at all. No country
weekly can afford to print the laws
for nothing, but if the expense
were borne by the state, would
gladly give space in their papers.
This is an important question and
one which interest the newspaper
no more than the reading public.
So beneficial was: this law found
to be in the, state Of New York
that at session following its en-
actment the people demanded it's
extension to greater extent than
contemplated in the first bill.
We believe the people Of Oregon
will find the enactment of such a
Law in Oregon highly beneficial

Buried the Cheese.

In the suburbs Of Boston lives a mer.
chant who is something of an epicure,
and not infrequently he brings home
with him from the city on his return
from business some tid-bit or other. Not
long since he found some particularly
choice Roquefort cheese, and the day be-
ing Saturday he took piece home with
him for his Sunday dinner.
Arrived at the station he was met by
his man with the buggy, ard in driving
home he put the bundle on the bottom
of the carriage, where it lay forgotten
until the next day. At dinner he re-
membered the delicacy, and sending for
Patrick, he asked what he had done with
the package of cheese which he left on
the bottom of the buggy.
