THE DEADLY REFERENDUM.

OOLS make feasts and wise men
eat them;
~ Wise men make proverbs and
fools repeat them;
Solons make laws and courts de.
fend 'em,
But wise guys use the referen-
dun.
The referendum law is well intended,
but unfortunately is so worded that the
political hlghwayman is armed and
equipped to hold up any law that does
not suit him, and his act as made legal.
The law can be and no doubt will be
amended so as to do away with this
feature. An amendment requiring that
all referendum, initiative and recall pc
tions shall be filed with the county
clerk, that all persons desiring to sign
them 90 to the clerk s office, that no
one be permitted to circulate petition
or pay for or receive pay for securing
names to any such petition will make
the law of use to the citizen rather than
to the political highwayman.
If this were the law now, or had been
two months ago, the U. of o, appropria-
tions, the workingmen S compensation
act, and perhaps some others would not
now be he'd up,
1t seems, however, that even with all
the power given the political sharks
are not satisfied.

by Judge Galloway Saturday, a man.

to place the law regulating the practice

sition that it was not necessar VITO have

ed to sign II, what it was for and what
measure their names would be attached
to- The signers in other words would
just write their names and there could
be attached to anything those securing
them saw Git to attach them to.
This is so utterly silly that Judge
Galloway made no comment on it other
than to hold the petition must have a
copy Of the law attached $50 those
signing could know what they were
signing" If the political highwaymen
could make this feature stick they
would, in the language Of the unregen'
crate, "have a pudding"
As a matter Of fact the highwaymeu
have pudding enough now, without this
additional sauce for signatures can cas-

been on the witness stand in the
congressional investigation into
AZ the president s charges that
there was an army of lobbyists
in Washington fighting the tariff bill.
The senator said he was principally
interested in the tariff on wheat, oats,
barley, flax, and potatoes, which are
disastrously affected by the tariff. -
If this is an evidence of the knowledge
of the tariff and of Oregon products
possessed by our junior senator, he GER
tainly has not even reached the kinder
garten class and is still in the nursery.
Wheat, oats, and barley are all ex.
ported by Oregon, not imported, nor
could they be, with any profit, for our
market on these products is outside of
the state. As for potatoes; well, when
they were piled up in the streets,
sacked, as they were in Vancouver re-
Gently, and anyone who wanted could
have them for hauling them away, it
is evident the foreigner who would uu
dertake to ship potatoes to Oregon
would be out his potatoes and his
freight money. The lordly spud which
the senator fears might suffer from
foreign competition if the tariff was
removed now sells in Calem at from 80
to 40 cents a sack, delivered at the
purchasers home,
Flax, too, the Aesculapian senator
thinks would get black eye If the
tariff was removed. If the gentleman
will point out where any flax is grown
in Oregon he will confer a favor on
many who would like to see the
flax industry started in this state. II

 It is a story of a hypnotist who, through his great will power, forces a young girl to leave her home and go with him on the stage. The struggle of a young doctor who loves the girl, to get her from the power of the hyp- notist makes d very interesting picture.
 The Surveyor and The Pony EX- press'' is a splendid western picture, made by the frontier producers and taken at Buckskin, Arizona.

 LANDER LOOKING INTO Iron account of the unofficial reports here that the city council of Prescott had reduced the assessments for taxation of the Santa Fe, Prescott and Phoenix railway twenty-five per cent, Chairman Zander of the state tax commission left last night for the Mile High City with the intention of looking into the matter. This is the first report of any action on the part of any of the sub ordinate taxing bodies of the state dis regarding the instructions of the tax commission this year. Last year a suit was fought in the supreme court in the matter and the authority of the tax commission was upheld.

The Isle of Mirth

The patrons of the Empress were last night given q most enjoyable journey to the Isle of Mirth, a myth ical spot located somewhere in the Atlantic ocean, inhabited by race cf the most sociable sort of people, the tour being a personally conducted one under the individual supervision of Messrs. Kelly x Lawson in the character roles of O'Brien and Cohen They furnish all the fun one would want, and cause no end of laughter through their clever interpretations of their lines. Kelly is in this bill in his favOrite line of endeavor-that of an Irish comedian, while Lawson is perfectly at home when case for a Hebrew comedian. There is a plot running through the pIaylet, it's sole object being to promote laughter and il succeeds The musical numbers are all new, and some very clever scenic effects are introduced during the action of the comedy which add materially to the evenings entertain ment Miss Rowe sings two very pretty numbers, one a beautiful ballad The Harbor of Love" and the other with the assistance of the chorus Sail on, Silvery Moon" Both num- bers brought her a well deserved round of applause. Kelly X Lawson have hit in 'The Lamp Posts of New York and they take advantage of the opportunity. Miss Vail is highly pleasing in her number, "Oh How She Dances" the chorus playing no small part in it's success. MT Marshall is singing, Sailing Dowr Chesapeake Bay" one of the latest song successes, and he puts it Ovel i1 just the right style. It is a clever little comedy guaranteed to cure the most confirmed grOuch, and one that is bound to please during it's run.
