C0NFEDENCE IN OREGON,

Oregon is 8 proud State and believes in itself, So it has gone calmly ahead and provided a way by which the con- stitution of the United States may be disregarded. The constitution of Ore gon, as recently amended, provides fot the holding of 8 State primary to de- termine the choice Of the majority for the position of United States senator It further requires the legislature, no matter what it's political complexion may be, to elect to the senate the per- son receiving the highest number of votes cast at the primary. The consti- tuition of the United States provides that 'the Senate of the United States shall be composed Of two senators from each state, chosen by the legislature thereof for six years, and each senator shall have one vote.'
 Is the choice of the people, as deter mined at State primary, the choice of the legislature? The Federal constitu- ton plainly means that the legislature shall elect, and not the people, and, while the legislature may take the re- suit of the primary as persuasive of the right man to elect, if it should deem another man better suited for the posi- ton of Senator and should elect him, notwithstanding the primary, he would be seated by the senate and have his one vote just as each other senator would have. The senate can only look to the credentials of the senator elect, If they are in proper form and certify ing to an election of the legislature there can be no further question made, unless the senate should conclude that the organic law of Oregon could over ride the organic law of the United States, and the senate is not likely to come to that conclusion.
 Oregon is blessed with the initiative and referendum and good deal of con- fdence.

4 CALIFORNIA CASE.

California has glorious climate, and 1t also has some glorious women. One of them has been for awhile Mrs. Char lotte w. scammell, but she is so no longer. When she was girl she was Specially prominent in San Francisco, and MT. Scammell won her heart and hand. Judge Bordwell has just allowed her to take her heart and hand away from Mir Scammell. She wanted his permission to do so because she had discovered that MT. Scammell was suf- fering from tuberculosis. Before their marriage, she says, on several occa- sions she asked her prospective hus- band if he was perfectly sound and healthy, and received every assurance that he was free from disease.
 It does not appear yet whether the divorce was granted on the ground of fraud or consumption, but the case is an interesting one. Mrs Scammell is probably healthy and wants to stay SO. She isn't going to run the risk of be- coming tuberculous by association with MT. scammell. If he told her wrong about his health before he married her she can't forgive him. If he didn't know that he was consumptive has she treated him right, and if he did has she? What is love anyway, and how does it show itself? Also, what is duty?

THE DRETFUS CASE.

Death Is a certainty in this world, but some things die hard. The lengthy and celebrated Dreyfus case will soon come before the Court of Cessation in Paris, on an application for revision.
 One new fact justifies an application of this kind, and the Dreyfus leaders, it is said, will allege six which are enumer- ated as follows: CD The ''petit bleu" sent by Col. Panizzardi to Col. von Schwarz-Koppen about the transport of troops on the Eastern railroad in the event of mobilization was not written in 1894, as was believed when M. Drey- fus was tried at Rennes, but in the fol- lowing year, when he was at the He du Diable; (2) at Rennes M. Dreyfus was thought to have communicated a note on the different artillery regiments to the German government from the bu- reau where he was working. Now this very note has since been found at the

A remarkable exhibition of the sweat ing industry of London is now under way in that city. The exhibition in- cludes only home industries, the object being to acquaint the public with the vile effects of the sweating system. It would be impossible to get together a more ghastly array of witnesses to mans inhumanity to man than is to be found in the bare facts of the prices paid to the unfortunate fellow crea- lures under the sweating system. Sacks are in exhibition, which are repaired as low as three and four cents per dozen, and chidreg's shirts are finished for eight cents 8 dozen. For sewing covers on tennis balls, twelve cents dozen is paid. Those merely illustrate the fig ures shown in this London exhibition.

A stand at distillery at Frankfort, Kentucky. broke down the other day and 16,OoO gallons of whiskey were lost. It ran into Benson creek. Farmers liv- ing on the banks of the stream later saw hundreds of fish either floating lazily or else leaping playfully on the surface and altogether unafraid of the presence of the men. The farmers caught them by the bushel, and 1t was not until the news of the break at the distifIery became known that the mys- terry was solved. The fish had become intoxicated.

The Congregationalist thinks there must have been some genuine humor- ists in the group of railroad officials who decided for economy's sake to have the same special ticket good for transportation to either the Christian Science convention in Boston or that of the American Medical Association in the same city. It adds: "The holders of tickets, however, will doubtless be able to differentiate themselves into the groups to which they belong as soon as they arrive at their terminus. And by the way, isn't this rather cute suggestion for name for the magnifi- cont temple of the Scientists, namely, the Eddy Stone Lighthouse?"

VISION SHOWED SON DEAD.
italian Mothers Dream Followed BY
Discovery Of Body.

A strange case Of telepathy In con.
nection with a murder Is arousing
much interest in Milan, Italy. A wo-
man named Lazzaroni awoke sudden
ly at three o'clock the other morning,
and calling her son John, who lives
In her house, told him that his
younger brother. Leopold. living In
the outskirts of the town. was dead.
The mother was deeply affected,
but John tried to comfort her by as
cribing her fears to bad dream. At
dawn, however, Leopold Lazzaroni, q
handsome and strong young man, the
owner of dairy, was found dead at
a spot some distance from his dwell
ling. After having made an examina-
tion of the body, the doctors affirmed
that Leopold had been murdered ac-
tually at three, o'clock In the morn
ing.
The mex. day the culprits were ar
rested.
The facts of the mothers vision,
which have been duly authenticated,

ATTRACTIONS or WESTERN
CANADA.
Magnificent Crop Returns for the
Year 1905.

The manner In which the Canadian
West has attracted settlers in recent
years has caused many Of our journals
and public men to "sit up and take no
tice," to use q current phrase. From
every European country and from al
most every State In the Union large
number of settlers have hocked to the
prairie provinces Of Canada. where
free homesteads and wide opportun-
tiles are open to all who desire to
avail themselves Of them.
The greatest factor In attracting
settlers lies In the inherent richness
Of soil and suitability Of climate for
producing what Is universally consid-
cred to be the finest wheat In the
world-the "No. Hard" Of Canadian
growth-and other cereals that rank
in the very first class. This year the
harvest returns were: Wheat, 90.-
100000 bushels; oats. 100000 bush
els; barley, 100000 bushels; and
when 1t Is considered that the entire
population Of the three provinces-as
evidenced by the quinquennial census
Just completed--is only $4,000, 1t IL
easily seen that the lure Of the Cana
dian West is In its agricultural poten-
tialities.
Another feature which attracts the
settler is that railway construction is
proceeding with such rapidity that al
most every district Is within easy
reach of outside markets, and that
good prices for all lines Of farm prod
ucts rule practically from the COM
mencement of agricultural operations.
This Is factor which did not prevail
when the earlier settlements in the
West were made In Canada and In the
United States, and has given great
impetus to Canadian Western settle
ment in recent years.
The free grant system OF home
steads which prevails in the prairie
provinces. by which every settler who
Is able and willing to comply with the
conditions OF actual settlement (by no
means onerous) Is given 160 acres
free, except $40 for entry. is great
drawing card, and In the last fiscal
year gathered In over $4,000 addi-
tional to the western population, Of
which 57,796 were from the United
States.
The further fact, as Is strongly
brought about by the agent Of the
Canadian Government, whose address
appears elsewhere, that a splendid
common school system. practically
free. prevails throughout the entire
country, and Is easy Of access in even
the most remote districts, Is another
great inducement to the settler who
has the future welfare Of his family
In mind, and this, coupled with the
fact that western Canadian law and
order are proverbial. completes
circle of good and sufficient reasons
why the tide Of immigration has set
in 80 steadily toward the country to
the north of our boundary line.
