The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there Is at least
one dreaded disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages and
that is catarrh. HALLS Catarrh Cure is
the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh being
constitutional disease, requires con-
stitutional treatment. Halls Catarrh
Cure is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces OF
the system, thereby destroying the
foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in
doing its work. The proprietors haye
to much faith in its curative powers,
that they offer One Hundred Dollars
for any cases that 1t fails to cure. Send

duty of q state legislature t0 elect these
co,1sn,issioners. Salem Statesman.
There are three commissions the
Statesman wants retained. There are
probably reasons why other commis-
aiops and commissioners will want TO
be retained. These reasons will crop
out from time to time.
Oregon had properly constituted
railroad commission which fought
vallantly for the interests of the pr' =
dueer but carload of lobbyists came
up from Portland and had 1t abolished.
The Statesman talks as though 1t did
not know that the Oregon commission
has the power to make freight rates
and enforce its decisions now. But 1t
is composed of men who are under
orders from q source that knows no law
IN Oregon but to tax the people all that
their traffic will bear. Oregon has now
the best commission law that can be
framed. 1t is copied after the Inter
state commerce act and the Iowa sta
tute. 1t could only be improved by
making the members Of the commits
sion elective by the people, but the con-
troll Of the nominating conventions be-
ing 30 largely in the hands ofthe agents
and attorneys of the corporations 1t Is
extremely doubtful If electing them by
popular vote would afford the people
any protection. The quadruple COM
b.natlon of capital, politics, legislation
and corporations that is enriching Its
managers, impoverishing the masses
and controlling our government can
not be broken 80 long rs 1t can keep
control Of the machinery for collecting
and disbursing the revenues OF the state
aud the still greater revenues Of the
corporations.
The members Of the legislature from
Marion county were elected upon n
platform pledging them to vote. to
abolish the railroad commission, abol-
ish free passes, reduce passenger fare to
3 cents q mile and enact maximum
rate law. II they could do all these
things the state would save $4,000 In
salaries the commissson now costs, two
thirds Of the people would not have TO
pay for the transportation OF tho other
one third and pay their own fare be-
sides, and legal rates Of freight would
be secured alike 10 all.
II the commission could be abolished
the state would save the $40, 600 salaries
and be a. well OFF as now, because the
commission 10 only used by the rail-
roads 10 legalize high rates h1ed by
themselves. IL man is burt, or =
shipper IL dlscrimmiated against, he
finds the commission arrayed on the
slde Of the corporation while drawing
pay from the people. 80 no one would
lose by abOllshlng the comnlisasion aud
the state would save $4,000.
