THE PANAOEA.

The panacea for financial stringency
and troubles of all other kind, and
the true way of restoring property
and making money plenty, has been
discovered and was explained to
about 200 persons on the plaza yes
terday by glib tongued orator, says
the Oregonian. 1t is direct legisla-
ton. This means that the people
are to make the laws themselves.
just how, was not explained, but the
most PLAUSIBLE theory is that the leg
islature is to be done away with and
congress abolished. as natural con-
sequence. People are to be elected
TO the next legislature who are pledged
to vote for an amendment of the con-
stitution, providing for "direct legis-
lation. Meantime Governor Pen
meyer has promised to call a special
session if the Legislature to carry out
the wishes Of the people who will vote
to abolish all legislatures, and before
the end of 1894 direct legislation will
be inaugurated in Oregon. This is
what the orator promised, and he
was applauded. Then he went on to
say that when we have direct legisla-
ton we shall have no more such in
fernal rot as the president gave US in
his last message about labor being
dependent upon capital. Then every
man would would get 81 day, there
would be two jobs to every laboring
man, and no one would have to humi-
late himself by asking for work.

Even if the gold men were right in
their cry that silver is debased

and great in nation to legislate for

The population of Siam is very
mixed one. Only about third of it
consists of pure Siamese. There are
about 100000 Chinese, most of
whom, strange as it may seem, are
subjects of Holland. The remainder
of the population is made up of mixed
races Burmese, Indians. Malays, and
Cambodians.
The Siamese are essentially peaceful
and indolent. They are social, vain,
and fond of bright dresses and jew
elry, and are inveterate gamblers.
The dress, both for men and women, is
q cloth called 'spanoong," about two
feet wide, wrapped around the waist,
with one corner drawn up and caught
in a girdle at the waist. This makes q
sort of flowing trouser falling to the

The boundary line between Siam and
AMMAN, according to the maps, and as
it actually existed until the French
put forth their present claims, was
range of hills running parallel with
the sea coast and forming the water
shed between the sea coast and the
valley of the Mekong River. The ex-
tensive tracts of country between the
river and these hills, like much of
Siam, is largely jungle and waste, and
like all of Siam is without roads or
means of traversing it. Slams hold
on this territory has always been
weak, and France has long desired
