Not correct. The democratic
papers have no faith in law which
was passed as the late law was. II
was notorious that railroad attorneys
and henchmen were in the Hobbies
in Salem when the bill passed, and
that the senate amendments were
suggested by these men and approved
by them. The railroads were there
In force and helped defeat the max

Time will prove the present law
valueless. ALBANY Democrat.
We have no doubt the Democrat
man means well but is woefuly i'm
error. The record shows that the
amendments to emasculate the law,
prepared by the railroad lobby in
the senate, were all voted down by
@ narrow majority. Then only two
little amendments were allowed in
the senate to the original house bill
and they were prepared by friends
of the bill. Not an amendment that
was proposed by railroad committee
in the senate but was rejected. Dem
ocrats not committed to the gov
ernor 5 maximum rate theory were
opposed to the senate amendments
The rest helped the corporations.

A funny bnll was made by COM
positor and proof reader in a JOUR.
NAL editorial the other day. This
sentence appeared: "Salem will
have turned acolyte long before the
Portland corporation crowd labors
for the welfare of the masses" The
Oregonian copied it. OF course, as
every well-read person will see at
once the phrase should read "Satan

Oregonian reproduced an error OF

DIRECT TAX DISBURSEMENT.
WASHINGTON, Mar. 11.--Assist-
ant Secretary Nettleton has notified
claim agents and Others interested
in claims under the direct tax act,
that all payments under that act
will be made to the states for the
citizens thereof from whom they

tives, and that claim agents and

INDIANS WILL NOT ENLIST.
WASHINGTON, Mar. 1I.-Private
advices from the Pine Ridge agency
indicate that the plan Of the war de-
Dartment to enlist 1000 Indians is a
failure. 1t was the intention to re-
cruit two companies of the first in
fantry with young bucks of the
Sioux tribe before the departure of
the regiment for its regular station
in California, but after a months
canYassing the regiment finally de.
parted without the Indians. They
objected to going 90 far away from
their native soil. Besides, they did
not fancy the duty of infantry sol
diers. They all want to be cavalry
men If they enlist at all. But it has
been demonstrated that few If any
will be willing to enlist in either un-
less they are sure of station near
the tribes.
