the outstanding debts of the royal
family.
Jose Relvas, the new minister of

one of the first acts Of the government
would be to impose obligatory secular
education. At the same time the re-

did not desire to destroy religious sem
timent, but only would obligate priests

ters.
TO READJUsT TAXATION
The minister said the government

the crown and disgusted with the army
of sycophants and place-hunters around
him. He even expressed admiration for
some of the republican leaders for
their courage and energy
The opposing sections of monarchists,
he said, had shown neither resolution
nor ordinary pluck.
Capt Desa believes the king Bit
terly felt his complete desertion in his
hour of trial, not single minister
having tried to see him or inform him
gof the course of events. The members
of the cabinet all fled or went into
hiding except the premier. who was
confined to his residence by an in
jured foot.

BOSSISIM IN POLITICS
DOOMED, SAYS BOURNE
Oregon Senator Explains Govern
ment System Which Has
Succeeded in North

CHICAGO, Oct. 1.-THE success of
Oregon's system of government, with
its distinctive features of the initiative
and referendum, recall and corrupt
practices act, was the keynote of an
address last night by United States
Senator Bourne of Oregon, before the
Union League club.
"The great problem of the American
people is to make their government
representative" said Senator Bourne.
it's principle that all men are created
free and equal is not established in
this country. Many public officers Sc
cure and have secured their positions
through rings backed by corporations
with selfish interests to promote and
special privileges to promulgate. But
the people are awake, and subservtence
to the political boss is coming to an
end.
CURB ON UNWIsE LAWS
'The initiative and referendum are
the foundation of all truly representa-
tive government. when the people have
the power to compel legislation which
they desire and require, then unwise
laws and special privileges will be diff
cult.
"Our people will take a deeper inter
est into the affairs of the government
if they are directly responsible for their
laws. When this ideal is achieved,
general contentment will be established
and anarchy will be destroyed.
Measures submitted under the initi-
ative cannot be emasculated by the lob
byist, and jokers cannot be inserted
The referendum protects good legisla-
tion from blackmailing corporations.
Corporations, newspapers and legal
Hessians have said that popular gov
ernment is failing in oregon. say
that the people will vote on thirty-two
measures at the coming election, and
will vote more intelligently after four
months discussion than will the legis-
lature in committee rooms and lobbies.
"The cost of the initiative and refer
endum has been three-fourths Of a cent
per capita in oregon. An effort to re-
peal the system would be defeated
overwhelmingly"

ASSERTS PRIMARY
NEEDS AMENDING
Secretary of State Curry Files
His Biennial Report with
the Examiners
ASKS NEW CORPORATION LAW
Favors Creation of Public Service
Commission to Prevent
Watering of Stock
ASKS NEW CORPORATION LAW
Associated PressI

SACRAMENTO, Oct. 12.-Secretary
Of State Curry filed his biennial re-
port, covering the Goth and 61st fiscal
years, with the state board of exam
iners yesterday.
The report contains the financial
statements already published, and in
addition to this Mr.. Curry recon-
mends several changes in the laws of
the state. Among other things, he
says:
Laws should be enacted compelling
a corporation at the time Of filing its
articles to state definitely in these
articles its purposes and limiting the
purpose and business activities of
each corporation to a certain definite
business enterprise"
Mr.. Curry suggests public service
commission" which shall have pow
ers to receive reports Of domestic and
foreign corporations doing business
in the state, should be created, the re
pets referred to, to be filed annually
and contain financial conditions and
an epitomized statement Of receipts
and disbursements. This, he says,
would prevent over capitalization,
watering of stock, excessive bond Is
sues and combinations of public ut1l-
ity corporations in restraint of trade
ana detrimental TO Ine puDilC Wo1IoiO %
and would, at the same time, insure
economical administration and eff
cient service at reasonable rates and
cost to the public.
DISCUSSES ELECTION LAWS
Regarding election laws, Mr.. Curry
says that California has a good code,
but he anticipates a number of radical
changes will be made by the next legis-
laturs. He says these changes should
only be made after careful considera-
ton.
The direct primary law needs amend
ing, he says, so that the circulation
of petitions In certain specified coun-
ties by candidates for city and coun-
ty nominations who now have to cir
c1late Tetitions in a certain percent
Of the voting precincts should be
amended, as 1t is unnecessarily bur-
densome to the candidate.
The candidate should be permitted to
secure the required number OF petit
tions of his constituents to place him
on the ballot, these to come where he
can get them with the least incon-
venience.
Mr.. Curry thinks the law should be
so amended that county clerks should
send to the office of the secretary of
state the result of primary elections,
tabulated by precincts.

Good Times CominR. !.

The gentlemen, our fellow citizens
who a few years ago took a flyer in
Mexican mining elaine and have since
been developing their property, have at
last reached the point where they may
glimpse Easy street as their mines are
now putting out stuff that pays its way
and 10 getting better as they 20 down
and dividends are In sight. Wen have
bunch of millionaires in our midst yet,
and when the boys get TO counting their
ducats by the thousands we are going
TO have q new corn-cob pipe and cit by
the fire in Jones-Swain's store and spit
on the stove, for Jones has said we
cosld. Oh, but that will be a happy
gang, bye-and-bye, when the dividends
begin to roll into their pockets. They
have hung on to the proposition deter
minedly and 1t has cost each one Of
them q good .sized wad but now they
realize how Il feels to play the game to
the end and finally win out. There is q
mining development scheme a bornin'
right here among some Of our home
people, who will furnish the necessary
wherewithal to develop the proposition.
which has to do with some Of the min
eral deposits over on the .west side Of
che county,. and when they get started
and the results begin TO show II will
cause lot Of people in Ripley county
to sic up suddenly and take much notice
and wonder why In thunder they didn't
grasp the opportunity loneago and reap
some Of sas benefits derived from sure
