morrow viii say:
The new administration. the certain
ty of an extra session Of congress
within a fortnight, and the promise OF
new tariff at an early day which
shall provide adequate revenue and pro-
tection. have done much to stimulate
a better feeling in trade circles. and
increase confidence in the near ap-
rroach OF Improvement in business.
Favorable features are to be found
in the higher prices for wheat, corn.
pork, as well as for steel billets; steel
mills are fairly well filled with orders,
and in some lines are inclined to ad-
vance prices. Recent low quotations
for various forms Of iron and steel have
been withdrawn. notably for wire and
structural material.

Olympia. March 5.-The house made
a record for itself today by passing %
bills, none of which were of any gem
eral Importance.

proposed to cheaper the cost OF levy

ter two days continuous consideration.

Special 10 the AstOrian.
Salem. Or. March 5.-Governor Lord
was asked today whether ne intended
to appoint United States senator. and
II so. whether he thought HIS appointee
would be seated He said:
Il shall appoint senator. but whether
or not he will be seated cannot say.
The decisions are conflicting and the
result would depend somewhat on the
temper OF the senate Legislative de-
cisions-they are sometimes partisan
and the doctrine Of state decisions has
but little application TO them. There
Is no case decided by the senate that
is parallel with the oregon case. II
is only by some sort of specious analogy
that the facts in the Oregon case can
be brought within the principle recent
ly declared by the senate. I understood
that the latest ruling of the senate Is
to the effect that, where legislature
fails to elect a senator during It's ses-
sion, the power of the governor to ap-
point is denied. But this power to ap-
point a senator stands upon a different
footing where there is no session Of the
Legislature, through the inability Of its
members TO organize and become
Legislative body. in consequence of
which senator cannot be elected. In
such case the conditions never have
existed in which the legislature could
exercise its power to elect senator.
To my mind, the vacancy in the SEN
ate caused by reason of the failure
of the Legislature TO organize and be-
come a competent body to elect sen
ator, is very different matter from
the failure of duly organized body to
choose a senator. In the first case
there is no legislature to exercise the
power of election TO hn the vacancy.
and this condition might arise from
many and different causes, while, in
the latter case, there is a competent
legislative body to choose a senator |
and fill the vacancy, and a failure to do
so must be always due to the derelic-
tion of its members"
do you think that you will call a
special session Of the Legislature, and II
so, can you indicate about the time?"
Il do not know at what time, or II |
at any time shall convene a special
session Of the Legislature The fact
that l shall appoint a senator indicates
that l have no present intention of
,alling the legislature together, at least
or some time. Recent occurrences in

that there will be some effort made
% induce me to call a special session,
arising probably as much out of polit-
cal considerations as a desire to fur
iish needed relief to the state. l un-
lerstand the needs OF the state and It's
and regret the failure of the
legislature to organize and furnish the
,eople the relief promised and needed.
But this is a condition OF things tor
which l am not responsible. nor would ,

about 175.OOO little less than half
the number of four years ago Even
these crowds have quickly dispersed,
and while there are stin noticeable
crowds m and about the public build

FLEET ARMORED CRUISERS.

The naval spirit of the country will
be inclined to resent the present rear
rank position Of our armored cruisers.
says the Chronicle, and would doubtless
approve of an appropriation for a ship
OF the Terrible type which would exceed
her in both speed and delivery of metal.
AS nation which puts it's main reliance
upon its ability to destroy the commerce
of its only probable foe the United States
cannot afford to let that foe outsteam
its cruising feet In vessels of war we
cannot have the most, but there is no
good reason why we should not have
the best.
1t is not unlikely, speaking of future
changes in status, that the application
of the turbine principle to the motive
power of ships will work a revolution
by which the present maximum speed
of cruisers will be greatly exceeded.
The first experiment with it developed,
in a torpedo boat, speed of about
thirty six knots. The possibilities of
such a force are endless, and in
their development and improvement
the United States will stand as good a
chance of attaining superiority as the
British.

MOODY'S WORK.

Evangelist Moody, whose life is an
open book of good results is lettering
humanity, has begun his promised work
of making an effort to improve New
York City. Over month ago he laid
out plans and organized similar cru
sades in Chicago, Cincinnati and other
cities. He simply announced that the
time was as good as any for stirring
the minds of the people to higher
aspirations.
Mr.. Moody claims that the country
needs the awakening power of reli-
gion. His movement has attained vast
proportions and his associates have
caught his enthusiasm.
Viewed from any standpoint, Mr..
Moody's mission is founded on good
motives. 1t will not lack assistance
The press, always alert for any i'm
portant event and Industrious in Cir
culating information invested with
great interest, will keep pace with a
revival movement planned on this

VALUE OF GOOD RESOLUTIONS.

Good resolutions are not much in
themselves, says an exchange. Their
value depends on what is done with
them. But good resolutions may have
much to do with inspiring and guiding
action. A man is pretty far gone who
will not make any good resolutions at
the beginning of new year. 1t is
better to make good resolutions, even
if they are not faithfully carried out,
than to lack even q purpose of right
doing. 1t is good to go so far as to re-
solve to do we'll. 1t is better to do as
well as our resolves.

THE republican party did not promise
to bring about complete restoration
of prosperity as soon as Mckinley was

improvement has begun by way of
anticipation, but the full effect Of the

Ordination of q Deaconess.

For the first time in the diocese OF
which Boston is the center a deaconess
was recently ordained. Miss G. M.
Carter, a graduate of the Philadelphia
Church Training and Deaconess House,
was the candidate, and the service took
place in Trinity church in the presence
of large congregation. After sermon
by Rev. William r. Huntington, d. D.,
Of New York, from the text, 1.-The Earth
Helped the Woman,' in which he al
luded to the service given by women in
church affairs, Miss Carter came for
ward to the chancel rail attended by
Frederick B. Allen, who presented her
to Bishop Lawrence with these words,
Reverend father in God, present this
woman to be set apart to the office and
work of deaceness. - The bishop spoke
impressively of the acts which would be
expected of "a deaconess and the labors
of love which she would be expected
to perform. Then, turning to the audi
ence, he asked whether any one present
could give cause why the woman should
not receive orders. Pausing moment
and hearing no answer, he placed his
hands on Miss Carter's head and de-
clared that henceforth her life would be
devoted to the work of Christ and the
church. During the summer months
Miss Carter will have charge of the
