THERE is such thing as overriding

Senator Titus, the young man from
Harper, in an interview shortly after
exposing the attempted bribery Of
himself and Senator Jumper, said that
the man Boyd, whom he claimed had
offered him the money, had told him
he had got all but two of the votes
needed and named five or six pOpulist
senators, among them Lewelling MIR.
Titus expressed no word or syllable to
show that he believed them guilty. He
only repeated the words OF the bOOdler
Yet next day all or nearly all of these

Mrs. g. G. Newcomb of St. Louis finds
herself "a new woman" in the best sense
of the word.
An invalid woman is always a sad
sight-sadder even than that of an in
valid man, because of her greater capac-
ity for suffering.
Neuralgia, backaches, fits of depres-
sion and headaches compel her to think
or work with half her brain, while the
other ha!f throbs as though it would go
to pieces. There are no more striking
examples of the great practical value of
Paine's celery compound than are heard
from the lips of women who have been
made well,
Its ability to relieve those ills that
seem to be peculiarly the misfortune of
women is overwhelmingly proven by in
Vulnerable testimonials from women of
the highest standing in the communities
where they live.

lature, Jerry has been one of the most
urgent advocates of the maximum
rate bill, In short he is 80 firmly and
sincerely grounded IN the faith of pop
ulism that he realizes fully what that
bill means. His urging its passage
upon the members of the legislature Of
his acquaintance will so entrench him
in the good will of the people that all
the politicians of the State can not
overcome its effect by parading any
petty private grievances. With Lew
eling working against the bill, and
Harris, the father of the wrong one, it
brings the people the nearer to those
who do the right thing.

that he has ruined his future by enter
ing into fact'Onal fights during the leg

cept as it cOnduces to bring the results
they want in legislation.

1t is now estimated that there are
about million dollars in worthless
bonds in the permanent school fund of
the State. This is said to constitute
about one seventh of the entire fund.
1t could be safely averred that if the
fund were loaned on good improved
farm property the loss would not be
greater. All but about $4,000 worth
of these bonds were bought by repub-
lican commissioners.

OREGON'S VACANT SEAT
Brief in the Claim of Corbett Filed
With the Senate Committee.

WASHINGTON, March "4.-The
Senate Committee on Privileges and
Elections has received the brief in the
claim of Henry W. Corbett to a seat
IN the Senate. 1t argues that equality
or representation of the several States
IN the Federal Senate was an essen
ton feature in the scheme of govern
ment provided by the trainers of the
Constitution, and that this equality is
destroyed when any State has but one
Senator.
Inc appointment of Mr. Corbett is
held TO be strictly within the terms of
the Constitution providing for an
polntments by the Governor if yacan-
cles occur by resignation or otherwise
and many authorities and precedents
are cited to sustain this view. AS tn
the recent failure of the OREGON T,eeis-
lature to organize and elect a Senator
the brief says:
hateVer equity there NAV he in
holdlng the State responsible for the
malfeasance or non-feasance of a reeru-
larly organized branch of the Stato
government, we earnestly contend that
1t would be the grossest iniustica to
hold the state responsible for the non
teasance of individuals who had been
CHOSEN to represent certain districts in
the Legislature, but who did not ouo1-
Try as legislators, and were a nninoritv
of those entitled to sit in the Jousa =,

''Not necessarily" replied Maddox,
but l am opposed to the free raw ma
terial idea
Maddox also advocated a duty on
manganese and on cotton. He asked
why cotton ties were taxed
Dolliver, in reply, asserted that the
price of cotton ties had fallen under
the Mckinley law from 81 to so cents
and increased under the present law
to 81 40. If the home market was ad
equately protected the committee had
been informed that cotton ties could be
manufactured and sold at 65 cents.
After some remarks by Adams (R.) of
Pennsylvania in commendatiOn of the
reciprocity features of the bill, Walker
(R) of Massachusetts closed the debate
for the session. He made a vigorous
defense of the benefits of protection. He
charged that the Democratic speeches
were made to befog their constituents.
Oh said he, "if | could only drill some
truth into your heads. If l could only
open them put in a few facts and close
them again" Iaughter)
AT 5 o'clock the House took a recess
until s o'clock
The night session was devoted to set
speeches. There were only two feat
ures of the session that caused atten-
ton. Kerr (R.) of Ohio severely crit
icised the reciprocity features of the
bill, which, he predicted, would wholly
fail to secure valuable concession for
the surplus product of agriculture.
The other feature was the statement
of Castle Cd of California that if
"Rome had her Cataiinp America had
her Hanna"
The speakers tonight were Living
ston CD of Georgia, Belford (R) of
New York, Burndage Cd of Arkansas,
Bromwell Q2D of Ohio, Castle O) of
California, Brown 0t) of Ohio, Kerr
