Democratic Reform.

That the Democracy is wholly made
up of great takers and little doers'
was never more forcibly illustrated than
by the utter worthlessness of the pres
ent House of Representatives, that
house whose watch-word has been Re-
forml Reform! Reform! The record of
its proceedings presents such an as
founding conglomeration OF inconsist-
encies, such cheese pairing economy
side by side with wanton waste OF the
peoples money such readiness to
cripple the government by refusing
needed appropriations while increasing
the expenditures by unnecessary en-
ployes in the House and by tilibustering
methods, that it is no wonder it is styled
"The Reform Circus" and characterized
by a leading independent political
journal as "a disgrace to the nation.
An able and experienced writer resi-
dent in Washington, speaking of their
do-nothing policy says
"If there is any other legislative body
this record for leisure and general do
nothingness, let it step forward. 1t is
the verdict of every oldest correspond
ent, oldest legislator, and Oldest inhab-
liant, that such a stupidity slow Con-
gress was never seen before in Wash
ington. OF course this refers to the
House of Representatives. The Senate
is far ahead of the House with its work.
The need of Gear" Reeds common
sense method of counting has been
demonstrated more than once when
the House has been rendered absolutely
powerless by the refusal of obstinate
Democrats to vote, and when, for lack
of a quorum, this lower branch of Con-
gress dragged along day after day for
an entire week without transacting any
business, until it finally became neces-
sary to send the Sergeant-at-arms and
several assistants out in carriages to
the Washington Jockey Club race track,
six miles from Washington, for the
arrest of truant members, we do not
wonder that honest Tom Reed should
declare that the House was making
itself a laughing stock for gods and men.
And, as though this was not sufficient,
when the recalcitrant members were
summoned to the bar of the House for
explanation of their absence, another
half day was wasted during which the
most ridiculous excuses were offered
and accepted, one member declaring
facetiously that he was following the
example of Or. Parkhurst of New York,
and so had gone to the race track to
learn whether there was anything de-
moralizing about it, whereat he was
excused with much laughter and APP
plause. Thus the public servants take
holiday while the public business suf-
fers and the taxpayers furnish $1,000
per day to keep the wheels of the legis-
lative mill grinding with empty hop
pers, and yet these are the representa-
tives of the party of ''retrenchment
and reform!

INTERESTING ENTERTAINMENTS.


The star entertainment course which
was so happily opened last Saturday even
ing by Captain Campbell at the Unity
auditorium has every prospect of a pleas
ing success. To have the opportunity of
hearing and seeing such an instructive
lecture and pleasing exhibition as Captain
Campbell gave, for the nominal sum of
twenty-five cents, will be appreciated bv
the public. Though the lectures did not
pay expenses other lectures and entertain
ments ranking just as high or higher may
be secured for each one Of the eleven sue
ceeding numbers of the course at the same
low price, if their are $50 more people than
those who have subscribed want such a
course at such a price. At the present
time there are nearly $50 course tickets
subscribed for. Such a lecture as that
which was given last Saturday evening
cost the committee $40, allowing but a low
rental for the building. 1t will require
Just 800 admissions at twenty-five cents
each to equal that amount. If 800 course
tickets are engaged before the next lecture,
similar entertainments as that given last
Saturday evening-that is similar in cost
will continue TO be regarded as a single
number and the price of admission to sub
scrlbers will be kept at twenty-five cents
subscriptions will now be received for the
eleven remaining numbers at twenty-five
cents each. This can be paid for at once
or at the ratio of twenty-five cents for each
course ticket at time of each entertain
ment. Seats are reseoved for subscribers
at no extra cost, and the twelve numbers
when paid for eau be used at any time by
one or more persons according to the wish
of the subscriber. The rates for persons
not subscribers will be fifty cents The
committee has decided to extend a special
rate to the pupils OF any school, academy
or college in Olympia by granting them
admission at the twenty-five cent rate
The brilliant and popular writer Hamlin
Garland, il is expected, will give the next
lecture. Subscriptions to course tickets
received at Stars bookstore.
