No man in Washington has so fertile
brain as the correspondent OF the Oregoaian
He says:
II is probable that two more stars will be
added 10 the American flag within short
time. II has been agreed that Arizona and
Oklahoma are to depart fiom territorial and
have stste governments. This is the result Of
verbal understanding reached between the
leading republican and democratic members of
he two houses. who have been interesting
themselves directly in statehood matters since
the present congress convened. Just before
the democratic senators held their caucus, to
agree upon minority representation on the
senate committees The Utah and New Mexico
boomers attempted TO pack the senate com
mittee on territories with men who would
favor statehood. About that moment the
matter was mentioned TO President Harrison
and II was learned he would not favor It. He
believed that Utah ha not sufficiently long
enjoyed freedom from polygamy, and that
New Mexico had not sufficiently large Amer
ican citizenship, so combination was made
between Arizona and Oklahoma, aud il Ii
stated that not only quite al! the lie ding re-
publicans and democrats in congress have ex-
pressed approval, but also President Harrison,
As to this verbal understanding. it has nc
existence except in the 'brain" aforesaid
Democrats have no such agreement verbal o.
otherwi,e. They are not to be caught nappin
in that way. New Mexico will come in wher
Arizona does and before Oklahoma.

The proposition for an amendment TO

wing for the election OF U United States Sen
s,orG by the direct vote OF the people will
attract considerable attention tbs session.
Turpie, senator OF Indiana, has already
made :he question a prominent one by
making speech In It's favor. weuust the
proposition will pass through congress and
and that three fourths of the state may
adopt II. The people can safely be trusted
to elect senators. The people are more
secure In their rights by keeping such
power in their own hands. Il has come TO
pass that scarcely no one but millionaire
like Brice. or n spokesman of monopoly
like Shcrman,can be elected to the United
States senate. Let US have the amend
ment by all means. Let every friend OF
constitutional liberty, who loves his coun-
try and hopes for its perpetuity, raise his
voice long and loud for the amendment,

WHAT 1T MEAES.


The appointment of Stephen B Elkins by |
President Harrison 10 The war portfolio is
slgnificiant In more than one way. For
years Elkins.has been Blaine's right hand
man. Al the last three or four nationa
republican conventions he has been on
hand urging the nomination of Blaine.
So strong and influential ~as he with
Blaine's forces In 1888 at Chicago, that he
led them, In the .final move, to Harrison.
Many will regard the appointment as in
dicating that Blaine has definitely re-
tired from oil hopes of ever being presi-
dent, and, that he has turned his forces
over to Harrison. Others will, with equal
reason, regard this move on the part Of
Harrison as a shrewd one to capture
Blainc's principal lieutenant. Another
conclusion, the most important of all, Is
that Harrison has decided to run the next
presidential campaign on the most ap
proved plan ofrepublican practical politics
as represented by Elkins, Quay, Dudley
and Clarkson. "Blocks of Five" and the
pious Wanamaker's 100000 corruption
fund schemes will be the principal means
used to secure the election of the next re-
publican candidate. There can scarcely
be a doubt that the administration will
boldly challenge the virtue and manliness
of the voters of the country at the ballot
box. Will the voters Of the country bs
able to stand the test? IT is as If the per
petuity of the government itself was being
put to the test. There cSn be 40 question
as to what the result would be were ths
people left free to express an unbiased
choice. The party in power would b
quickly voted out, But the means of the
party In power are potential and the re-
suit uncertain.

THOSE CHICKENS have reached Umatilla

the L. o.. "a chicken was slaughtered
for the family table recently at X l. Oil

the fowl Mrs Oliver discovered in the
craw two small nuggets Of gold about the
the size and shape OF small nail head.
How the chicken found tie gold is now
the question. About a half-mils below
the place ia the site OF the old Swift's

Ayers
Hair VigOr

not only prevented my wife from becoming
bald, but it also caused an entirely new
growth Of hair. am ready to certify TO this
statement before a Justice Of tie peace
ii. Hulsebus, LewlsburgII, Iowa.
Some years ago, after severe attack OF
brain fever, my hair all came out. I used
ssch preparations for restoring It as my ply
sicians ordered, but failed to produce a
growth OF hair. then tried, snceessiyeIy.
several articles recommended by druggists.
and all alike fell short Of accomplishing the
desired result. The last remedy I applied
was Ayers Hair Vlgor. which brought a
growth Of hair in few weeks. / think I
used eight bottles in two years; more than
was necessary as a restorative, but / liked il
as dressing, and have continued TO use IL
ior that purpose. I believe Ayers Hair
Vigor possesses virtues far above those of
any similar preparation now on the nlarket.D
