This is the question that the courts Vi
Oregon will soon be called upon to de-
eide Whether the courts will uphold
the law as constitutional measure or
not Occupies the minds of great many
people in Oregon at the present time.
and upon the decision OF the courts in
this matter depend great many in
terests.

tempting to break the constitutionaitY
Of the act and will fight the matter to a
close, and if possible will have it de-
clared of no force. The ground on
which they base their plea is given az
follows:
"Because it was not submitted to the
Governor for bis approval, was not
signed by him, nor returned with his
objections, nor filed by him in the
office of the Secretary of State that the
law was not legally submitted to the
electors, because the petition for its sub
mission was not signed by per cent OF
the voters that it confers an unlawful
delegation of legislative authority to the
County Court; that the title does not
give notice that it is unlawful to sell
liquors; that the initiative and referen-
dunn act is contrary to the constitution
of the United States, wherein repGb.
lcan form of government is guaranteed;
that it unlawiully prohibits the sale OF
liquor on the prescription of a physician
not engaged in practice; that it Is con-
trary to section 81 of Art. of the con-
stitution: that it unlewfully attempts to
delegate the prohibition question to pre-
cincts, and that it provides for illegal
search warrants and rules of evidence" p"
The Local Option Law is declared to
be void for the above reasons which are
set forth in complaint which was filed
Friday in the State Circuit Court at
Portland, by Henry Weinhard, the well
known brewer, against County Clerk
Frank S. Fields, and Judge L. r. Web
ster, w. l.. Lightner and Frank G. Bar
nee, comprising the board OF County
Commissioners.
A decree is prayed for adjudging, de-
terminng and decreeing the local op.
ton law to be unconstitutional, Invalid
and void, and enjoining the County
Commissioners from ordering an cleo
tion to be held on November S, 1904 to
determine whether the sale Of intoxi-
eating liquors shall be prohibited in this
county. An injunction is asked for re-
strainng County Clerk f. 5. Fields
from taking any steps or proceedings
looking towards the holding OF such
election and enjoining them and each Of
them from spending the moneys OF
| Multnomah county for such purpose.
A preliminary restraining order is asked
and was issued by Judge George, and
was made returnable September :.
After a final hearing OF the case the
injunction is asked to be made Perpet~

A like petition has already been FLED

Cleveland, and now I own the earth.
All you have to do is to have a sublime
confidence in yourself, save your money,
and be kind-hearted to the widows and
orphans and get them all to sell out
to you.
Only the other day sat up for hours
with a sick friend, whose mothers bust
ness 1 had absorbed, because I felt that,
if it continued, the usefulness of the
Standard Oil Company might be impair
ed. He needed my sympathy, and 1
gave it to him freely. Thus you see,
my children, the value of leading a
good life.
And, dear little ones, remember this:
Money is something that, when people
leave this world, they cannot take with
them.
What I have earnestly striven for is
to prevent them from doing this. And
while you cannot hope to succeed as
we'll as I have done, you can try, re-
Numbering always that it takes two to
make a bargain-the one who makes it
and the one, who gets left.

Dear Little Boys and Girls: 1 wish
to see many bright. fresh. young
faces gathered before me. It takes me
back to the time when I, too, was
young; yes, not only young, but poor.
hope it does not make you feel badly
| to think that I, whom you all know as
the richest man in the world. was at
! one time poor. Because, you know, it
! is a good thing to be poor once in your
lives.
| Why, if 1 hadn't been poor once,
| wouldn't have learned how to save my
money. Now it is easy for me to do
/ this, and saving your money is the
greatest thing in the world.
There may be other things greater
, than this, but if there are, have never
| run across them in the course of a long
and checkered career.
Does any little boy know what a
checkered career means? No, thought
not. There are, of course, different
kinds of checkered careers, but the one
I mean is where you collect as much
money as possible without getting into
Jail.
Keep out of Jail, little boys and girlss
if you possibly can. The ventilation is
poor, and your power of contributing
to the church is too limited.
I want to take you into my confidence
today, and I want to do it in such a
way that you will reap the benefit. If
you We're older, I should not feel so
much like doing this, because older
people sometimes have money of their
own, and this always secretly annoys
with them as can with you.
But I want you all to grow up and |
be useful men and women, like me. |
You cannot, of course, hope to do as
much as 1. or as many, or be as pious
about it.
But you can try. And perhaps the |
best way can help you is to show you |
a few of the things that are really inn
portant for you to know.
In the first place. do not neglect your
Bible. 1t is not only a good book to
read, but it is amusing, and you will
need innocent amusementS to take your
mind off your work
My little boy, John, has a Bible class
all of his own, and he gets a lot of
amusement out of it. So do other peo-
pie.
The main point is, not to take your
Bible too seriously. And learn to dis
eliminate in it between what is true
and what is merely amusing.
When you read about the faithful
steward, who not only saved his mas
ters money, but got a good respecta-
BILE rake-off for himself, that's true.
But when you read about the difficulty
of a rich man getting into heaven,
that's only amusing.
oh. yes, little boys and girls, the Bible
is full of jokes. if only you know where
to find them.
Then again, don't be afraid to be I
by the world. AS long as you
have money enough, it's all right. A 4
lot of people scOrn me and think I'm
pretty tough proposition, but the Bap-
list Church and the Standard Oil Com
pany compensate me for everything.
And while 1 am on this subject, let me 4
advise you to belong TO the Baptist

Habit is a queer master. Recently

is very distinctly and plainly a dash

is no suggestion of the continuance,

careful newspapers have recently pup

the title as "All's Fair i'm Love and

Some interesting discussion has been
called forth and considerable agitation
created by the assertion of President
Angel of the American Humane Edu-
cation Society that the great scientist
Agassiz firmly believed in the immor-
tality of animals. The idea that ami
mails possess souls at first appears
startling, but investigation has shown
that other scientists besides the IA
nous Agassiz have held the same the
ory. The question is very fully and
ably discussed in a recent volume by
DR.. E. D. Buckner, published by
George w. Jacobs & Co. of Philadel-
phia.
An interesting law suit has been filed
against the Harper firm. Walter
Juane Davis of Denver was so fortu-
nate as to have a 10,000-word story ac-
cepted for publication in Harper S
Weekly. But imagine his chagrine
and CONSERVATION upon finding, when
the story appeared in print, that it
had been "blue penciled" from its orig
inal comfortable length of 10000 words
to 4,S00 words: and this without his
knowledge or consent. Mr.. Davis has
sued for $4,000 damages for injury to
his feelings and literary reputation.
But suppose the Harpers should be
able TO prove to the satisfaction of a
jury that Mr.. Davis literary reputa-
ton had been conserved by a judiciods
use of the blue pencil?

it will prevail. In an article in the

When Love is Love.

When Love is Love. BY Kate Langley
Bosher. Cloth binding 12mo. New
York: The Neale Publishing CO.,
Broadway, Fifth avenue and Twen-
ty-third street. Price, $3.50.
Much is being heard these days
about the marriage problem. The
Smoot investigation in Washington
has set the country by the ears with
respect TO polygamy. Rev. Father
Sherman Ca son of the GeneraD has
said that the simultaneous polygamy"
of the Mormons, is less reprehensible
than the successive polygamy' possi-
BILE under the divorce laws, since by
the former every wife's position is
sure, while under the latter no wife's
position is sure. Bishop. Potter, Cardi-
nal Gibbons and others have thunder
ed against divorce, and in society there
has been much discussion of the old but
ever new question of men putting
away their wives and marrying 9TH
ers. At this juncture comes Mrs.
Bosher's novel, taking up the identi-
cal question and illustrating it with a
story of human interest. The heroine,
the daughter Of an aristocratic Vir-
ginia family, tenderly' nurtured and
well trained in religious principles,
finds herself face to face with this
proposition: "Will she be justified in
marrying a divorced man, no matter
how strong their mutual love, his
blameless life. and his undoubted no
