LEGISLATURE ADJOURNS NEXT WEEK.
Last Days of the Session Finds MANY I'm.
pOrtant Measures to be Passed.

The House and Senate of Delaware
are on the home stretch so far as the
present session is concerned. If the
House concurs in the Senate Joint res
olution aa to adjournment the business
will be wound up on a week from to-
day, which would allow just nine DAYS
counting next Saturday. There is
some disposition in the House TO
amend the resolution so as to make the
date two days later, although many of
the Legislature would probably be will
ling to quit at the earliest possible mo-
ment.
Much OF the snap has gone from the
session since the settlement of the SEN
atOrial problem.
The House devoted an hour yester.
day to the consideration of the House
bill providing for the permanent i'm
provement of the public highways of
this State, the Tyre bill, which it pas
sed as amended by the committee on
public highways. The vote was Ayes,

a resolution offered by Mr.. Holcomb
which provided 'that a committee of
three on the part of the House and two

Purchase Exposition in 1904" The

Attorney c. F. Richards Of GEORGETOWN Gives
His Legal Opinion Regarding It.

With reference to question as to
the constitutiOnality of the proposed
local option law, Charles F. Richards
OF Georgetown has given the following
opinion to the Rev. Vaughan s. Col
Inns, president of the Delaware State
Temperance Alliance:
There can be no doubt but what
your act complies with the require
ments of the constitution. 1t provides
that the question of locol option NAV
be submitted to the voters of the sew.
eral districts and your act, in the
language of the constitution. does
this. The constitution gives the Gen
eral Assembly the right to submit the
question to any district defined by the
constitution and also to the whole
state, but only to the state by and
through the several districts as defined
by the constitution. This you have
done and followed the language of the
constitution in doing it, as far as it
was possible for you to do so. -
The speaker has no right to refuse
to allow a measure to be considered
upon the ground of the unconstitu-
tionality of the measure, and if he
did the house could appeal from his
decision. Any constitutional matter
that effects the business of the House,
he has the right to pass upon, but
that is the extent of his authority"

Need Railroad Fa acilities.

"The town of Heppner does busi-
ness in a region that extends to the
south for $50 miles, and the same con
ditions obtain there that are to be found
in Heppner and Morrow county. Sheep
and wool and cattle, with many high
bred horses, constitute the resources in
the nam, with no inconsiderable guam
tity of grain raised in Morrow county,"
says G. f. Redfeld, to the Oregon Daily
Journal.
"Practicaly the same conditions
exist throughout the immense region
that is called Central Oregon, and ex-
tending from the Columbia river on the
north to the Nevada line on the south.
There is country not touched by rail-
road lines. 1t is fringed along the north
by the 0. r. & N. 1t is skirted on the
east by the same road, and the w & G..
r., feeder of the Northern Pacific.
The Columbia Southern runs southwark
from Biggs less than hundred miles.
The Sumpter.valley road extends to
Whitney from Baker City, also less than
100 miles. And the Cascade mountains
bound it upon the west.
Besides these short spur lines, there
are no railroad facihtities and every
pound of products is carried on wagons,
from the point of production to the rail-
road lines. Wool is hauled more than
$50 miles to the railroad. Sheep and
cattle and horses are driven the same
distance. Goods for consumption in
Central Oregon are hauled back by the
wool teams over mountains and through
valleys.
"Central Oregon is prosperous
region, even without transportation
facilities. People have plenty of money
and conduct fourlshing businesses.
But, the country would forge ahead |
were rail lines provided, as they doubt
less will be before long"
