Representative Gunderson's Work
The following article appeared

! The following article appeared in
the JOURNAL OF March l7til, 1899:
/ Representative Gnnderson returned
from. his labors at the capital last Sat
urday evening". He has expressed
| himself as well satisfied with the work
done and the greater portion OF tie
bills passed, but regrets that several
measures ofinportance failed to re-
ceive the support that their merits en-
titled them to; two Of these were the
freight rate and passenger rate re-
duetion bills, though the latter with
the transfer bill and railroad com
mission passed the House.
His bill calling for four hatcheries,
one on each of the Skokomish, Sno-
homish, Nesqnally and the upper
Columbia rivers, passed, as we'll as his
bill calling for the establishment Of a
fish ladder at The falls on the Skoko-
mish. The fish commission assured
him that these would be in operation
inside of a year.
The county has also secured one OF
the scientific stations for the propa-
cation of Eastern oysters, to ne stu
ated somewhere in the county. Our
representative was given the promise
by the fish commissioner that the To-
cation of this station is to be selected
by the local board of oyster commits
sioners and no doubt the place select
ed will be either Big Skookum or
Oyster Bay.
His bill basing the tax of the fish
traps on the amount caught, was in
corporated- IN the general fish bill
though somewhat modified, but he re-
grets that the license rates of the gill
METERS and seine men were somewhat
increased at.the command OF the fish
monopoly.
! Representative Gunderson was prac-
| tically the only Ole of the fish com
mittee of fifteen members that stood
out against the fish traps and after
listening to all the arguments he still
believes that there is not a.tenable
argument in their favor.
Two measures Of some importance
that he succeeded III getting through,
are, one the repeal of the registration
law in all cities and towns of less than
10000 inhabitants for school election !;
the other, that school officers upon an
absence of ninety days, forfeit their
right to the Office, as we'll as other
amendments to the school law, sug-
gested by his experience with school
work.
His bills, to reduce the poll tax,
prohibit the use of free passes, reduc-
ing the number of jurors of Superior
courts to eight and j. P. courts to four
Ca constitutional amendment), prohi-
bition of fish traps, removal of school
officers by Co. Supt. after investigation
when petitioned to Go SO, ETC., were
unpopular and were defeated in COM
mittees, but on the whole lie secured
as good results for his labors as did
the great majority of the legislators,
and feels that he could do no more.
Of the fifteen bills he introduced,
eight safely passed the committees
being reported favorably to the house.

Some Populist Testimony.

John r. Rogers, who is trying to
get the credit for the faithful discharge
OF duty by the populist state osficials
has proved himself to be notorious
hypocrlte. This self styled "Guod
! Government" governor who so often
has turned a deaf ear to the pleadings
and petitions Of relatives, friends,
prosecutors and courts for the pardon
or leinencysof same erring one often
committed to the peHitentiary on
clrcumstantial evidence or the victim
of bad company, did without petition
or request pardon hardened criminal
James Davis, who was sentenced to
'36 years, and who tried to kill a fellow
convict who informed the, guards OF
Davis plot to kill guard and escape.
The circumstances of this pardon
throws an ugly, dark shadow over the
official acts of the "Good Government"
OcNIi hOi. w ullC llJc UOdIu vi par
dons were still trying to carry out The
intentions Of legislature who con-
sidered that the pardoning power was
a dangerous one in the hands of one
man and before the G.. q. governor
saw fl to usurp his constitutional
power and entirely disregard and an
nul their work, he asked q member to
convene the board to consider the ap-
plication for the pardon of James
Davis and when asked if there were
petitions or recommendation for such
q pardon, replied, no, but that he had
received a letter from the ccnvict's
mother, q resident OF some other state,
and that he would look after the pc
titioh. Later petition was fixed up
and the board after reviewing the
matter out Of consideration of the
governors interest in the matter, rec
commended that the convicts time be
reduced one-half or to Is years, he
having served 10 years of the time.
This failure of the board of pardons to
follow the dictation of the "Good Gov
ernment" governor and recommend
the pardon of Davis, enraged the i'm
perialist and he forthwith pardoned
the hardened criminal Just what
persuasive power that letter of the
convict's mother contained may never
be known, whether it was contribu-
tion to the denomination fund OF the
G. G. governor or the announcement
of some political pull is still matter
for conjecture. = Olympia Capital

G.. B. Gunderson, OF Mason Count

G. B. Gunderson, OF Mason County,
cannot be overlooked He talked but
little, but when he did speak he always
had something to say that the house
listened to. He went home bearing as
many trophies to his people as any
man in the legislature, and that is the
standard by which to reckon the in
fuence of u member. He stood for
economy, for the people, and was a
champion OF the rights of labor. Sueh
men as Gunderson give tone to and in
spire confidence in our law-making
bodies. -Olympian of March 20th,

1t is just as easy to drift into danger
Is to drive into it. The progress is slower
but the end is equally sure. 1t is the
gradual progress of drifting which blinds
to the danger. Men and women drift into
ill-health in such a way. There is a
little feeling of oppression after eating.
After a time it passes away. Some day
it returns and brings another symptom
headache, perhaps. Something is done
to relieve the headache, but nothing to
relieve the cause. So one more victim
goes drifting on to the rocks of disease.
Young wome who are teaching or
studying are very apt to become victims
of disease of the stomach. They eat in
judiciously, in some cases, and in gen
eral the brain is too occupied to allow
the stomach the blood necessary to carry
on its functions. Hence in time the
organs of digestion and nutrition are
totally deranged, and the young gradu-
ate goes home a chronic invalid.
The timely use of DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery will avert such a con-
dition the faithful use of it in chronic
cases will effect a complete cure.

Vesuvius Has Lost Its Cone.

This fiery crater. now suddenly silent,
was explored by scientific mon who dis
covered that the cone had disappeared
Several theories are prOpounded as to
why the eruption ceased, also regarding
the disappearance of the cone The
general belief is that 1t was due to subsi-
dence. and which is looked upon as
prOvidential. 1t was as unexpected
as are the stomach disorders with
which people suddenly find themselves
afflicted. Slight symptoms are neglect
ed until dyspepsia is chronic. The
remedy to take is Hostetter's Sto-
mach Bitters. This valuable medicine
is unequalled in all cases of constipation,
indigestion biliousness, or malaria, fever
and ague. 1t brings about a healthy
condition of the bowels and improves the
appetite. Be sure to give it a trial.
