LOWELL ADDRESSES
OREGON CITY CROWD

Oregon City, Ore, Feb. 22.-"The
world advances and in time out
grows the laws that in our fathers
time seemed best. Doubtless after
us a purer scheme will be worked
out by wiser men than we-made
wiser by the sure advance of truth"
Such was the theme of an able
address delivered by Judge Stephen
A. Lowell of Pendleton, who is a
candidate for the United States SEN
ate, at a banquet by the Congrega-
tional Brotherhood.
Politics. said Judge Lowell, 'is
government and should be the gov
ernment by and for the average man,
and by the average man 1 mean what
is known as the common people to
whom you and I belong.
"Why not let the assessor register
the voters in his trips about the
country? Then it is all done at once,
and if there are any omissions it is
easy to correct them. There is great
abuse in the registration OF voters on
election day by obtaining the sigma
lures of five freeholders. If a man
is not patriotic enough to register
when he ought to register, then he
should not be permitted to vote at
the eleventh hour.
81 believe that the initiative and
referendum are WISE but I am fear
full unless there is restriction placed
upon the initiative it may topple
over. 1t is not wise to present to the
people the consideration of 40 meas
urs at once to vote upon. believe
that there should not be more than
seven questions to vote upon at a
single election. There is no harm
in the referendum 1t is merely a
check upon the legislature.

(From Wednesdays JournaD.
Owing to the appearance from AL
aska for a demand for heavy beef,
there is spirited call for weighty
cattle in the Portland stockyards at
this time.
While as a rule there is little diff
ference in the price between this
grade and something not quite so
heavy, the call from the north is an
insistent one and price cuts abso-
lutely no consideration.
Six steers that came from Ridge
field, Wash, were sold at $3.50 in
the North Portland yards today. The
stock was rather heavy and of unus-
ual good finish. 1t was brought for
ward by M. c. Hall and was quickly
picked up by buyers.
The cattle market generally is in

length in the opinion.
3. A covenant by a vendor to fur
nish to the vendee an abstract of title,
together with a warranty deed for the
property agreed to be sold, imports an
undertaking on the vendors part to
convey a marketable title; and such
covenant is in no way affected by the
fact hat the vendee and knowledge
that the vendors title was defective, or
that they had no title, nor can such
knowledge on the vendee's part be con-
strued as a waiver by him of the bind
ing force of such covenant.
