Oregon Legislature Attacks Mining.

A body blow has just been given to
Oregon mining interests by our legis'
lature, by an act requiring registry
fee of from zoos down, and yearly
license fee of zoos down, according to
amount of corporate capitalization.
This practically prohibitory tax is in
addition to the ordinary taxation which
mining property, like all other prop
erty, must pay. While the act, to give
1t seeming constitutional validity, is
applicable to all corporations, it was
openly asserted by its advocates to be
aimed at mining, and thus to prevent
watering" of stock.
That few i'm practicables are to be
found in all legislative bodies is al
ways expected; but that the entire leg.
islature and the governor of an alleged
progressive state could be led into the
enactment of such drastic measure
such slap in the face of one of its
most important interests--is matter
of astonishment.
1t is, or ought to be, we'll known by
this time, that it is simply impossible
to determine what is "watered" stock
in mining. The reason is plain. No
man can see the millionth part of an
incn into an ore ledge, and therefore
1t Is impossible to correctly estimate
the value of mineral discovery. For
years the prospector and the capitalist
tried to solve the question by sort OF
partnership arrangement by which one
furnished the money and the other did
the development, but this was unsat-
isfactory, because, if the prospect
turned out to capitalist lost too much,
il not all his money. 1t was, therefore,
at the suggestion Of the latter, that
large capitalization at prices far below
par should be adopted, and thus call
in many investors, who could buy in
many corporations, and out of the
several investments get something of
value. To this sensible plan Colorado
owes its splendid mines, that are today
yielding about 3O,OOO,OOls per year.

A negro at Muscatine, Iowa,
after receiving a severe beating,
was rescued from fifteen hundred
infuriated men who were proce ed
ing to lynch him, when twenty
policemen interfered and saved his
neck. The negro had shot and
probably fatally wounded a white
man. There have been hundred
similar cases in the North and
West, in which real lynchings
would have occurred but for the
fact that the scenes were in thickly
populated communities with strong
police forces. The sentiment is
even stronger than in the South
but the tragedies are more often
averted by the presence of an army
of peace officers.

date, any number of voters might
be qualified electors for one pri-
mary and not qualified for the
other. The right of the State ex-
ecutive committee to fix the date
within certain limits involves to q
small extent the right to contract
the vote by an early date, and to
give the late ones an opportunity
to get in by fixing the election for
the last day possible. The answer
to all this, however. as generally
given, is that these anomalies are
liable to arise only in the case of
those who have neglected to regis
ter up to within a few days of the
proper time, and that all questions
may be avoided by the elector tax
ing the trouble to register early
enough in the action.
The opinion of the attorney gen
eral on the question seems to have
the sanction of the law and deCis-
ions, but mum Der of lawyers have
expressed some doubt as to its cor
rectpess. The matter cannot, of
course, be finally determined except
by a resort to the supreme court,
which is not at present probable,
and, in the meantime, the election
officers will no doubt follow what
the attorney general says on the
matter. The lawyers who are in
clined to assert on the question
hold that it is absurd that a man
should be debarred from voting in
a purely preliminary election who
is qualified voter In the regular
succeeding election at which those
candidates are to run. They in
cline to the view that the primary
election to select party candidates
is different in the genus from the
elections referred to in the consti-
tuition, and is not to be used as
basis for determining qualification
by reference to the fact that a
four months registration previous
to it, instead of previous to the
general election to which the pri-
mary is preliminary. They also
think that the term. qualified
elector," used in the law, has ref |
erence to the prevailing practice in
politics in this State heretofore.
and meant man qualified to vote
in the regular election. The cita-
1 Al
to answer these contestants rather
thoroughly. but nevertheless the
doubt still exists i'm the minds of
some able lawyers, and should the
election in a particular county be
close and hinge somewhat upon
the Interpretation of this part of
primary law no doubt a contest will
arise as to the true meaning of the
statute in this regard.

Judge Critz and Mr.. FOx'S
Challenge.

On his arrival home at West
Point Saturday from canvassing
engagements, Judge Critz gave to
the press a reply to the challenge
of Congressman Fox to leave the
matter of their candidacy for Gov
ernor to a primary vote of Clay
county, and declined for reasons
stated. This is about the action
that was generally expected if no.
tice were taken of it at all, and the
question is left where began. 1t
is really a subject upon which the
public has no concern, and what
transpired between the two gentle
men years ago on q different sub
ject is not a matter of interest in
this campaign-the people are not
sentimental enough to hazard the
result of this election upon q ques-
ton of comfy between two as
pirauts because they live in the
same county. For all the voters
care about it every candidate in
the field could hail from the same
bailiwick. The platform they
stand upon and the measures they
advocate are what the voter is con-
sidering, and is not bothered in the
least about the candidates domi-
cile. The reasons given by Judge
Critz for declining the proposition
are expressed in the following par
agraph:
II have made q vigorous can
vass of the State at large up to this
time, at great cost of time. labor
and money, and have no right to
ignore my friends and supporters
il other counties, if / were willing
to do so, and would not If could.

county with the factional bitter
ness which the primary election
you suggest would occasion. The
only issues Of importance to me
are State issues and a State pri-
mary must settle them. I love

The Attorney Generals Opin-

special to New Orleans Times Democrat.

Special to New Orleans Times Democrat.
Jackson, March 29.-Politicians
are discussing some of the curious
anomalies that may arise in the
practical application of the pri-
mary election law as a result of the
attorney generals recent opinion
to the effect that to be qualified
voter the elector must have regis
tered four months before the pri-
mary election itself, instead of four
months before the regular election,
as has heretofore been the case.
Of course, these possible anomalies
do not affect the validity of the
attorney generals opinion as le-
gal proposition, but they possess
interest as affecting the first at
tempted application of State pri-
mary election law in Mississippi.
The first primary for State Off
GERS, as is generally known, is to be
held on a date between August l
and August 10, the same to be
fixed by the State executive CON-
mittee, and the second three weeks
later. The regular election, to
which this is in legal contempla-
ton a preliminary. is to be held
early in November. Under the
rule that voter must have regis
tered four months before the pri-
mary election itself to be qualified,
the elector may pe at the time of
the primary election fully quail
fed to participate in the general
election, but be debarred from
part in the selection of the nomi-
nees. Inasmuch as the two pri-
maries are three weeks apart, q
man may be qualified to vote in
the second and not in the first. IF

A gigantic shutdown of cotton
mills occurred last Saturday at
Lowell, Mass, when seven of the
largest cotton factories in the
country closed for an indefinite
period. The action was taken in
anticipation of general strike
forced by the demands OF union
operatives, which would have
closed the mills in a few days if
the owners had not done SO in ad-
vance. There are now 1900 op-

Register at Once.

Elsewhere in today's paper will
be found the opinion OF William
Williams, State Attorney. Mr..
Williams announces that parties
must be registered not less than
four months before the August
primary to be entitled to vote in
that election. Those who have
not registered heretofore and are
qualified to register under the law
should do so at once, or they will
lose the right to vote in the Aug
ust election. The primary cleo
ton will be held between the LIST
and the 10th days of August and
those whose names do not go on
the poll books four months prior
10 those dates will be denied a
vote. If the State executive CON-
mittee should fix the 10th day of
August for holding the primary
election, those who are not already
registered could qualify themselves
by registering before next Friday,
or April 10th. The committee,
however, could fix any date between
August lst and 10Th, and parties
should register tomorrow, Mon
day or Tuesday. or at the earliest
date possible before next Friday.
Those who are not registered be-
fore April 10th, and get their
names on the poll books between
that date and May lst, could not
vote in the first primary, but could
in the second, as the constitution
requires that registration must
take place four months before any
election in which offer 10 made to
vote, and the supreme court in a
recent decision has given the pri-
ery election the dignity of
rral one. 1t is thus evident
ne old poll books must be
the approaching primary
bose who were registered to
Athe last State election or
stion since will be qualified
icipete in the August pri-
issoat further registration.
}drren, Jefferson and several
.r counties in the State had
~ered new registrations, but Mr..
Williams Interpretation of the
primary election law has
caused their boards of super
visors to revoke the orders, as the
new registrations would not have
qualified electors to vote in the
primary election and would have
nullified the old poll books, and
disqualified every voter in those
counties.
III not already registered, be sure
to do so tomorrow, Monday, Tues
day or a soon before next Friday
as possible.
