FUSION MAY
 BE DEFEATED Conventions of Three Free Silver Parties at
 Portland. Conference Committees Will Attempt to Effect a
 Union.
If They Succeed the Middle-of-the- Road POpulists Will Bolt the
 Ticket.
Special Dispatch to The Gail.

PORTLAND, March 22-The Demo- crats, Populists and Silver Republicans of Oregon will hold State conventions in this city tomorrow for the purpose of nominating two candidates for Con gress and a full State ticket from Gov ernor downward. The Democrats and silver Republicans are almost unani- mously in favor of fusion, but there is a division in the ranks of the Popu- lists which threatens to cause serious split in the convention.
 J. F. Young, chairman of the Popu- list State Central Committee, who has large following. is opposed to fusion. The middle-of-t -the-road Populists, how ever are believed to be in the minor ity, and in case the Populist convention insists on fusion with the Democrats and silver Republicans, 1t is said, number of delegates will walk out of the convention.
 When the convention meets to-mor- row the first business of importance will be the appointment of a confer ence committee by each. The confer ence committees will endeavor to agree upon a platform and a division of the offices. No nominations will be made until the committee reports, and in consequence candidates are at sea.
 JOIu D. w dlQO Ol hdiIuH OOuIily, ~d former Republican and Justice of the State Supreme Court, Is the most prom inent candidate for the PopuliSt nomi- nation for Governor. General H. B. Compson of Klamath County, it Is said, has a large number of delegates pledged to support him. and his friends assert that his nomination is assured in the event that the gQvernorship goes to the Democrats. There are a dozen or more candidates for Congressman, but tonight no candidate can judge his strength.
 There is no controversy over the financial plank, which will favor the free and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1.

Injunction Against San loses Council Dis
 missed.
Court Lacks Jurisdiction Under the Present COndi-
 tiOnS.
Restraining Order Not Necessary in View of the Mayors
 Attitude.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN JOSE, March 22.-The two suits brought by Sanford E. Smith to re- strain the Mayor and Common Council from entering into contracts with A. J. Coffee for fire-a alarm system, and with Nash E. McReynolds for street sweeping, were decided against the plaintiff this morning by Judge Kilt redge. In both cases it was held that the suits were prematurely brought, and that the conditions had not yet arrived where the court could use it's restraining power. The applications were denied, and the restraining orders dismissed.
 Judge Kittredge held that the in functions could not be made permanent as the action of the Common Council was yet in a formative state, not hay ing reached a finality, as in both cases after the actions awarding the con- tracts the Mayor had vetoed the actions of the Common Council and there the proceedings stopped, no attempt being made by the Common Council to pass the measures over the veto
 He said that the courts universally held, and it was well-defined principle of law, that the judiciary shall not in terfere with the legislative bodies in re- gard to any of their legislative acts until the action has reached fnality. In the cases at bar, it is presumed that when the Mayor vetoeS a measure the Common Council in good faith regard the veto as final and this presumption must here prevail. If afterward the Common Council should pass the meas ures over the vetoes, independent pro- ceedings could bring the matter before the court to be reviewed.
 Judge Kittredge said the bid of Nash & McReynoIds was certainly not the lowest and best bid. but it may or may not be the best bid. No evidence was presented on that point, and it was not necessary, as the other element of re- straint is the governing one. He said no notice could be taken of the allega- tion that there was no money in the fund to pay for the work, as it was not shown that other funds could not be drawn upon. The same general ruling applied to both cases
 The Nash & McReynoldS matter was to restrain the Mayor and Council from signing contract with this firm for sweeping the streets for three years. The Council passed an ordinance to award the contract, but Mayor Koch vetoed it. The restraining order was asked for to prevent the Council from carrying out it's threats of awarding the contract over the veto By the terms of the contract, the sweeping would cost the city about S4000 a year more than at present. The bid was higher than the others submitted
 The Coffee contract was for a fire alarm system. This also was awarded to the highest bidder. The price to be paid was $500, In installments of s65 a mont

Hebron of Salinas Tells of the Stand Of California Sugar
 Beet Growers.
Great Industry That Claus Spreckels Is Fostering of More Import

Special pispatch to The Call.

Special Dispatch to The Call.
 Call Office. Riggs House,
 Washington, March 22.
 J. R. Hebbron of Salinas, Cal. who is at the Riggs House, in conversation with Call correspondent said:
 "There is great opposition among the sugar beet producers of my State against the annexation of Hawaii. In fact, think that outside of San Francisco the general sentiment of the people is ad- verse to the annexation policy. The beet sugar industry is assuming enormous proportions out in our country, and has already come to be a source of large rev enue to the farmers. Claus Spreckels is building in Monterey County, near my home, a sugar refining plant that will be- when completed, the largest and most perfectly equipped in the world. Machin- cry for the plant is coming over con stantly by the shipload from Germany When completed 1t will cost S2, 900 OOO In the county adjoining MT. Spreckels has a large plant in operation, but the sugar produced there is sent to San Francisco to be refined. Such an interest as this which benefits a large number of people. far outweighs in importance the advan- tage. to be gained by a comparatively small number of men who profit by com mercial intercourse with Hawaii"

disorders of the digestive organs, nine tenths of the medical books in the world could be safely destroyed. Not only the minor maladies, but the majority of serious diseases have their inception in a disorder ed digestion. Consumption is undoubtedly the most deadly enemy with which man kind has to contend. Like all other vast ing diseases 1t has its origin in disorders of the digestive organs. As result Of these disorders, the appetite falls of; the llte-g1v- ing elements of the food are not properly assimilated; the blood becomes thin ana ini- pure; and all the tissues of the body are i'm perfectly and improperly nourished the lungs become clogged with inert halt deao tissues that offer an attractive soil for the invasion of the germs of consumption. l1 has been said thousands of times that con- sumption is incurable. It is not.
 Ninety eight per cent. of all cases of con sumption are cured by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It corrects all disorders of the digestive organs, invigorates the liver and makes the appetite keen and the assirn- ilation perfect; 1t makes new blood, pure blood, and lots of it. 1t builds new and healthy tissue. It is the great hesh-ouiloeT;; It acts directly on the lungs, driving out all impurities and disease germs. Thousands have testified to its merits. All good drug gists keep it.
 Geo. H. Slater, Esq, of Yates City, Knox Co, Ills. writes 'I have been troubled with indl- gestion and dyspepsia for the last two years got bottle of your Golden Medical Discovery, and it did me so much good I going to get another bottle It is the best medicine in the world for stomach trouble"
 Good health is the best endowment. Those who have 1t cannot be too careful to preserve it. Constipation Is the worst enemy of good health. It causes nearly every disorder known to physicians. Dr. Pierce,s Pleasant Pellets are a sure, swift, safe and permanent cure for constipation. One little "Pellet" is gentle laxative, and two a mild cathartic. They never gripe. Druggists sell them.
