PLACK THORN.

1t seems that the greatest
thorn in the flesh of the white
man of the United States of to-
day is a black one-the negro.
Surely the white people of the
South have reason to curse their
luck IN consideration of the
plague that has descended to
them as the fruits of the sins of
their fathers.
The negro was brought to this
country in chains century ago;
he came here against his will and
because the white man made
him do so. Now it seems as
though in time he would have to
go-someWhere and some way
all because the white man so
wills. During the early history
of the slave trade many there
were who frowned upon and con-
demned slavery and who were
doubtful Of results.
Since first brought to the Uni
ted States the negro has been
nought but source of trouble.
He was the cause of one of the
greatest struggles ever known in
modern times, the civil war
This great struggle was for the
settlement of the negro question,
and it is not settled yet. 1t
looks as though affairs in the
South are becoming more and
more alarming each succeeding
year. Will race war result? !?
Possibly; but if not what in
creation is to be the end of the
antagonism that has existed for
centuries, and always will exist.
between the white and black
races?

popular vote last June than an
election. Fred w. Mulkey and
Jonathan Bourne, both of Multi
nomah, are the senators chosen
by the people of Oregon to re-
present them in Washington D.
C. at future sessions of the nat
ional congress. Mr.. Bourne will
have the long term while Mr..
Mulkey will hold office during
the short term. There is no rea-
son to doubt that these gentle
men will be speedily and grace
fully endorsed when the time
for balloting arrives.
Hence it will be seen that
there seems no good reason why
the legislature should not at
once settle down to the consider
alton of serious matters. Per-
haps the greatest question before
the legislative body, or likely to
come before it, will relate to
railroad franchises and railroad
matters generally, together with
the consideration of proper con-
troll of all public franchise cor
porations. These of themselves
are matters of greatest impor-
tance to this state beside which
other things seem almost insig-
nifcant. We hope the present
session of the legislature will
make as creditable a close as it
has a beginning.

Two Famous Kisses,

History has taken notice of some
famous kisses. There was that
which Queen Margaret gave to
Alain Charter over 800 years ago,
the memory of which is fresh in the
minds of men if not on their lips.
Charter was poet, but he was the
ugliest man personally in all 'Sthe
sunny land of France" The queen,
with her maids, one day found him
asleep and, bending over him, kissed
his dreaming lips. Turning to her
maids, she prettily said: Il kiss not
the man. [ kiss the soul that
sings"
Two centuries later Voltaire, an
other F'renchrlan and also a poet,
was publicly kissed in the stage box
Of the theate:. by the young and
lovely Counties de Villars, but in
his case the lady gave the kiss not
as voluntary tribute to genius, but
in obedience TO the commands of
the claque in the pit, who, mad with
enthusiasm for the poets 'Me-
rope." bade her kiss him.

FATE AND ANDREW JACKSON.
what Going West, Not East, Meant to
tho Fiery Lawyer.

tho Fiery Lawyer.
During the young manhood of
Andrew Jackson, when he rode the
sircuit in Tennessee, knowing more
law than most of his brethren at the
bar, afraid of nothing on earth,
ready to- challenge to a duel some
trained lawyer from the older set
Elements when that lawyer tres
passed upon his own preserves and
made fun of his ignorance-as
Waightstill Avery did-thus hold
ing'$his ground against all comers,
partly by brute force and partly by
mental superiority, he was probably
nearer to happiness than he ever
was afterward.
From court to court he rode his
race horse, pistols in holsters, carry
ing his gun and his pack of hounds,
ready for the courthouse, ready for
the deer chase, ready for the shoot
ing match, ready for the horse race,
ready for the house raising and log
rolling, ready to go out himself and
drag into the courthouse the des-
perado whom the sheriff feared to
arrest.
Rough and tumble times these
were in backwoods Tennessee, with
rude and lawless elements boiling
and bubbling in that inevitable pc
Rod of unrest and struggle which
prevails in border settlements be-
fore the community takes form and
everybody smugly congratulates
everybody else on the 'reign of law
and order"
In just such a state of society
young Jackson was peculiarly fitted
to lead, dominate and prosper.
Had he gone eastward instead of
westward, had he cast in his lot with
the lawyers that were striving for
advancement in the cities Of the
original thirteen seaboard states,
nothing is more certain than that
the world would never have heard
of him.
His lack Of knowledge of the law
would have made him easy prey to
those who were masters of this pro-
fession. Ills fiery temper would
have kept him constantly in battle
array, and in fighting those lawyers
who got the better of him in the ci-
tation of legal authorities he would,
in the nature of things, have met
the wrong man sooner or later

Linn Wants Bounty.

To secure law for the Dav-
ment of bounties on covote
scalps in Western Oregon is the
purpose Of a movement which
has been inaugurated IN Linn
County. Petitions are now be-
ing circulated asking that such q
law be inacted at the present
session OF the legislature.
Since the scalp bounty law
Was abolished coyotes have be-
come verv plentiful in the foot
nils of Eastern Linn and have
done great damage on stock
rar ches. Ranchers in the vicin
ity of Holley. Sweet H me,
Crawfordsvilie and Sodaville
formed a league and have been
paying $40 for every scalp
broug ht ia. The burden from
loss of stock and payment Of this
bounty, too, has been a heavy
one, the ranchers say, and they
want the county to assist In the
ext rmination Of the pests
The iuaugurators of the pres
ent movement want a law fash
Toned after the act of 1887, rather
than the one of 1901, which made
it easy to ship in coy ote scalps
from other states and collect the
bounty, procedure which was
the direct cause of the repeal OF
the law.

NOW Nv SESSION.

Monday saw the legislature
for the State of Oregon conven-
ed. For some little time pre-
vious there had been much spec
ulation as to who would be elect
ed president of the senate and
speaker of the house. E.. w.
Haines. of Washington county,
was elected president of the
Ssenate on first ballot. Hodson,
sE2 Mul nomah, was the only op-
spoalent of Haines who merited
consideration. In the house
Frank Davey was elected with
out opposition on the first bal
dot.
While the legislature is repub-
lican almost to the core there is
every reason to believe, at least
at this stage Of the game, that
they viii play fairly with the
democratic senators and repre-
.santatives. On this head it may
&be stated that the report is cur
rent that the Haines men, as
well as others, have expressed
themselves as friendly to Gov
ernor Chamberlain. This is re-
assuring information, as in the
first place the meeting of the
Legislature is for the making and
passing Of laws for the welfare
s.1f the citizens of the state, or
@-sior the repeating of such laws as
have proved obnoxious or made
@Quate. In the second place there
is no sense in the governor of
any state and the senators and
representatives pickering and
abusing the faith ot their con-
-stituency just because of diff
ference in political faith.
There is nothing of greater
Importance to the people of any
state than the Legislative ses-
sions. 1t is safe to say that
never in the history of this state
did the prospects for fair sailing
during the legislative session
look SO bright as they do for this
session. In the past there have
always been days and weeks of
wrangling and lobbying and bal
loting for United States senators
where there has been a SEN
a Or to elect. Two United States
senator's are to be chosen this
session. but the choice becomes
rather IAN endorsement of the
