Amendments 20 the Oregon constitu
iion 10 be voted upon at the coming
election is one 10 legalize about million
dollars Of county and city warrants, and
school and bridge aud sewer warrants,
All Issued In violation and excess Of the
following wise provision Of the present
constitution:
mo county shall create any debts or
liabilities which shall singly or IN the
aggregate exceed the sum ol 5000, except
10 suppress ineurrection or repel inva-
sion but the debts Of any county at the
time this constitution takes effect shall
be disrcgarded IN estimating the sum
70 which such county IL limited"
That is the old limit on running in
debt, and while II has been violated
with impunity, Il has probably been the
means Of preventing an accumulation oi
millions u dollars OF bonded debt.
Following Is the amendment 10 be
voted on a. a substitute;
mo county, city, town school district,
or other municipal corporation shall be
allowed 10 become indebted In any man.
ner Tor any purpose 10 an amount, In.
cludlng present existing indebtedness, In
the aggregate. exceeding per oentum
on the value OF the taxable property
therein, 10 be ascertained by The last
assessment for tho state and county
taxes previous 10 the incurring Of such
indebtedness
Az we sense Il, this now provision !
would wipe out all the past lllegality
and make all the present excessive and
Illegally contracted debts binding aud
collectablo IN common justice court
and prepare the way 10 run grisis In
excess Of the new limit. II viii be
setting bad example by the people
themselves Of sanctionIng by their vote
the unconstitutional excessea Of officials
sworn 10 obey the constitution. Every.
where the influence OF the tareatcr is
sxerted 10 throw on all limits on debt
creation and create more debt and new
debt and saddle the people with inter.
esi bills for iuture generations 10 pay.

CLOTHES AND THE MAN.

The Difference being weu Dressed
Made 90 n Cabinet Omcial.
Yes, the clothes n man wears make
a great deal OF difference IN this world,
especially In official llfe." remarked
the private secretary OF a cabinet ofii-
cial, who is compelled TO see many
people and TO hold many more people
at bay.
II was especially struck with the
importance OF clothing some time ago."
continued the official, "when the as
sisiant secretary was absent and II
was my duty TO staye all the callers
OF the secretary. / do that often. but
when the assistant secretaries are here
they help great deal.
"Wcll, I noticed on the occasion
referred 20 that had no trouble Ia
keeping people away when | wore my
Prince Albert and looked like the real
thing. When told them that the sec.
retary was too busy TO see callers, they
thought | owned the whole place and
walked away without remonstrnnce or
without saying that their business was
very Important and they were sure
they would be seen II ! would Just take
their names 20 the secretary.
when | wore an average looking
business suit, which might look Just a
little bit shabby, the callers didn't pay
much attention TO what said. IL was
more difficult than you can Imagine TO
get them TO 40 away. They would nnd
all kinds OF excuses TO remain and to
get mo TO present their names TO the
secretary. The difference was 80 ap-
preciable as 10 be noticed by others ln
the room. found that II paid me to 10 |
well dressed on all occasions and that
| was much more useful TO my execu.
tive head."--Washlngton Star

Mr.. Boiling Arthur JOhno0nlo
ssThe Aeassion Play Of 1900"
Houston Post, Nov. II.
Despite the Indictment weather an
audience which was quite comph-
mentary as to size and quality
gathered at Sweeney & Coombs
theater last night to witness Mr..
Boiling Arthur Johnson's last illus
trated ENTERTAINMENT, stThe Passion
PLAY of 1900" This was unani-
mously voted to be the best of the
course and that is saying much.
The pictures shown were easily the
best things of the kind an audience
in Houston ever had the pleasure OF
seeing and, for the matter of that,
it is doubtful if any genuine pictures
of the Passion Play were ever
shown in Houston before. Those
used by Mr.. johnson were taken
and arranged under his personal
supervision at Oberammergau last
summer and it is difficult to imagine
how a better selection could have
