EXIT CHARTER BILL.


We have published enough of the de-
funct Charter Bill to give, as we believe,
all the clauses that were objected to and
made the ground of its defeat, with the
sole exception of the emergency clause
which has been already commented
on in these columns. The remainder of
the bill does not require publication as
it relates chiefly to matters over which
there has been little if any dispute. We
have not published the bill to "harrow"
the soul of anybody but solely for the
purpose of giving the people of this city
an opportunity of reading bill that was
stigmatized as bad and dangerous and
the production of ssstar chamber
We have completely answered every OBJ
lection made to it in manner at once
logical, gentlemanly and unswerable.
We have been replied to in language too
foul for any journal above the grade of
the Police Gazette. In printing the bill
we have discharged duty we supposed
we owed to the public. The task is ac-
complished and we shall not willingly
refer to it again.

of passing some needed measures of relief
from railroad oppression. Here in Ore
gon the people are not asking for an ex-
ira session because we know we would
not get it; and yet we need some good
legislation on taxation more than ever
Washington needed it on railroads. The
assessors are now traversing the state
and visiting the taxpayers scarcely 80
much to assess property as to ask the
taxpayer how much they are willing to
contribute towards the support of the
state and county government during the
current year. We have got SO familiar
with the ways by which, under our VIII
lainous assessment laws, man can
legally evade just taxation, that ad-
vantage is taken of them by honest men
as matter of self protection. Tax eva
sion is almost reduced to an exact science,
and the state will never have relief till
we make it the burning question OF an

"Fn warrant you never saw more

man who knew what he was talking
about. ssGo where you will in a rail-
road Office, shop or yard, with a sub
scription in aid of an injured fellow en-

the men who refuse among hundreds to
contribute are few and far between.
You can gamble that they would also
contribute except for necessities of their

THE PROPER PLACE FOR THE
4fF PORTAGE.

There is no good reason why the port
age road around the Cello Falls should
not be built on the Oregon side. We are
credibly informed that more than five
miles of the ground over which the Paul
Mohr company has the right of way is
a sand drift and that miles of the road
through which was graded year or SO ago
is SO filled up with drifting sand that not
trace of the grade is to be seen. Exper-
ience has shown that road built over
such place is dear at any price, because
of the expense and danger of operating
it. But this is not all. The Washing
ton legislature, because of the preponder
ating influence of the Sound cities has
proved itself adverse to any movement
tending to open the Columbia. The
excellent bill of representative Hunsa-
ker, which was intended to compel the
present portage at the Cascades to carry
all freights offered to it from any source,
was quietly put to sleep notwithstanding
it was a thoroughly fair measure as ever
came before any legislative body. The
influence of the Sound will predominate,
it is safe to say, for many year in the
councils of Washington and this inhu
ence will be opposed to any measure
that will tend to draw traffic to Portland
or Astoria instead of to Seattle and Ia
coma Oregonians would have little
reason for putting their money in road
which their legislature could not control
and which might at any time be subject
to such adverse legislation as would rem
deria portage ineffective for any substan-
tial relief. The only part of the state of
Washington that would be benefited by
a road ON the north side of the Columbia
would be Klickitats county and the
people of that county have long looked
for relief through road that would con-
meet them with Seattle. The people of
Sherman, Wasco, Gillian, Crook and
parts of other counties south have no
outlet and the greater portion of these
never will have any except by way of the
Columbia, and it is safe to say very little
money could be raised in these counties
for road in Washington. 1t is a dead
certainty nothing could be raised in
Wasco county. We have no use for a
road there; and if Paul Mohr wants to
make anything out Of his right of way
through the sand and rocks on the other
side let him build the road and operate
it himself.

A culture medium for Bacteria.


A new use has been found for the
juice of the unripe cocoanut. This fluid,
which to the uninitiated tastes singu-
larly mawkish, is most grateful and
cooling drink to those suffering from
fever. 1t is largely patronized, too, by
sailors, who seem to acquire more than
their wonted thirst while in tropical wa
ters, and their favorite trick of sucking
the monkey" as the process of absorbing
the liquid from hole cut in one end of
the shell into which printing of rum
has been poured is termed, has been
from time immemorial one of their
much cherished recreaions as soon as
they could escape from their ship.
The idea, however, of using the milk
of the cocoanut as culture medium for
bacteria is a new one. In Investigations
which have been made in Cuba during
the last two years this fluid was used
very extensively, and it was found to be
a great convenience to have sterile
culture fluid always at hand, ready for
use at moments notice.-New York
Commercial Advertiser.

Appearances i'm Business.

'sAlways keep up good front. IF You
are down in the world never show it by
your appearance if you want to do bust
ness. It is an axiom of human nature
that people prefer to, do business with
successful people, or those who have the
appearance, rather than with those who
are behindhand. - The above remarks
are from a Broadway manufacturer who
has risen from poverty to affiuence, and
they are worth putting in one's memory.
Said he: 'sNot many years ago when
was fat broke not one of my customers
ever knew it. 1 spent more money on
them and generally gave out the idea of
my success. Had Il not done this, but
appeared poor and shabby, would have
lost my trade. There is no knowing how
far the appearance of prosperity goes

dication of wealth, all impress q man,

if you have the semblance of success
than with seemingly poorer neighbor. ~

WAGON ROAD GRANTS UNCON-
STTTUTTONAL. etst

In the supreme court last Wednesday
case was decided on appeal which in
wolves the constitutionality of the wagon
road appropriations made by the last
Legislature and is a practical endorse
ment of the views presented by Governor
Pennoyer as the ground upon which he
vetoed these bills. The decision will rob
future legislatures of what was fruitful
source of jobbery and corruption. While
many of the wagon road appropriations
such as that for the road over Tygh Hill
were in every way meritorious it must
be confessed that many others were the
very opposite. No road was treated on
its merits. To get sufficient support to
pass a road bill the legislator interested
1t was question of scratch my back
and I'll scratch yours all round, and
we are truly glad that this fruitful source
of corrupt legislation is taken out of the
way for the future. The opinion was
rendered by Judge Lord and is as fol-
lows:
The act entitled San act to appropri-
ate $4,000 to aid Tillamook county in
the construction of a wagon road from
Nehalem river in the north end of said
county to Fuqua tollroad in the south
end of the county, and to use $1,000 oi

South Prairie to Netart's bay, and to Gre

struct said work" approved February

which declares that the legislative as
sembly shall not pass special or local
laws in any of the following enumerated
cases; that is to say, for laying, opening
and working on highways, and for The
election or appointment of supervisors
The said act is not general law, but 6
special and local law, within the mean

Portland Telegram.

George H. Wilbur, an attorney from
Goldendale, is in the city registered at
the Esmond. Speaking of the PROPOSE
ton to remove or overcome the obstruc-

Nothing has ever been thought of
that would work such wholesale benefit

carried out, and that the farmers and
business men of the interior will bear
their share of the expense. I do not
think Portland will have to pay three
fourths of the sum of So, 900, 900. That
would be calling for too much from that
city. The; eastern parts of the two
states, as well as Idaho, will be rendered
greater benefit than will be derived by
Portland. The scheme is better and
more practical than the extension of the
Hunt system, and will do greater good.
Regarding the Hunt road, 1 do not
think it will ever be built down the
Columbia river. The Northern Pacific
now owns it, and they are not going to
be SO foolish as to enter into competition

Good for the Corn

KANSAS CITY, August l7.-Specials

braska aud Northern Kansas was
visited by copious fall of rain Satur-

was especially heavy in Nebraska,
where the railroads suffer little. 1t
extended to the west line of Kansas.
At Kansas City and Atchison the
rain was accompanied by severe
electrical storm. The rain was great

benefit to the corn, which in some
fields had begun to "fire."
