Griesbach Kills Himself. San Francisco, Jan. 20-A. H. Griesbach, solicitor for the publishing house of Appleton & Co.,, New York, by whom he had been employed over 20 years, committed suicide by shoot ing himself in the head. The body was found by two boys on a hill out by Sunnyside on the line of the San Mateo road. It was stretched out on a large rock at the highest point the man could reach. The family of Grlebach is prominent in military circles In Berlin, a brother being first lieutenant in the Fourth regiment of Uhlans, and a sister being married to,an officer of high-rank in the German army.

Resolutions and . Other Routine Business. The situation of the Oregon legis lature Is not Improved. The decision of tne senate by a tic on a roll call and by taking no uppeal from President Simon's ruling to not even allow the Benson house to be recognized on the senate, leaves the situation .chaotic so far as the house is concerned. Tho Benson faction in tho house claim to be" tho regularly organized permanent organization, and are going ahead with from 30 to 31 mem bers to transact business. They in troduce bills, adopt resolutions, em ploy officers and proceed as though they were a legitimate and recog nized legislative body. It would take every vote they have to pass a bill. So far neither the .senate, governor, secretary of state nor any other state official recognize the Benson faction as the house.

Mo. 14, for committee of three to Inquire iuto tho "neutral condition of dishonorable Jo. Simon." Seconded by Mitchell amid laughter. Ruled out of order. Crawford expressed regret that any such resolution was offered. It was undignified to Introduce such non sensical resolutions and was not com plimentary to the intelligence of the house. They were in a serious situa tion and it behooved the members of this house, to conduct themselves In a quiet, dignified and respectable man ner. The senate owed this house the samo kind of treatment. We owe due respect to the president of the other house, and it to us, His remarks were applauded. Huntington, of Wasco, heartily seconded the remarks of Crawford. JOINT COMMITTEE. Veness ; offered house concurrent resolution No. 2 for a joint committee of two from the senate and three from the bouse to examine the books and accounts of the state treasurer, with power to employ the necessary clerical aid.

NOT CONSIDERED LEGAL. , MIsner of Crook, one of tho Demo crats who haYo helped to make tho thirty-one arose In his seat this after noon and said: "Mr. Speaker; I have now been hero a week to represent my people and I want to go to work. I do not consider that this house Is organized legally. It seems too much like baby work, I want to know if you can tell us how we are going .to organize. If we cannot Ido not intend to stay in my seat aid fool away any more time. I am getting tired of this " Mr. Mlsener's remarks were received with perfect silence and Mr. Benson in the chair bad not a word to say in reply.

"I am no longer one of tho man agers." Iky Patterson. The Journal employs no brcolic cartoons. It only sheds 'X" rays. Slnco tho Statesman sold out to Sol Hlrsch It Is death on all other Heb rews. Senator Simon Is an American when It comes to upholding the constitution of Oregon. 'I'm afraid my conyictlons on the silver questions arc a little too strong for present conditions." John n, Mitchell. . When a cause is so weak it needs personal abuse to bolster it up it ought to ho done up In tissue paper and laid away. Poor Tom McNary! But then his back is broad;his good-nature endless; he can take all the abuse that is given and come up smiling. . That Is a good sugges'tlon from the Republicans of Ashland to Langcll and Benson, that "wo desire to see the legislature perforin Its duties de cently." Dr.Lee Is one Democrat not anxious to organize an old-style Republican legislature, where the mare runs with the bridle down, nis constituents back him in his stand. The best political tactics Is to do good work for tho people. Tho oppo sition to bad work should wait till a constitutional quorum gets ready to do that kind of work and no other. The Statesman armed with theMark Ilanna sack,and backed by the emolu ments of an expensively managed state Institution has the cheek to lee- turc tho legislature In the Interest of economy! If either faction of this pugilistic legislature needs aman to lead a, squad of sluggers to victory, or drive a speaker out of his chair, Prof. Jim Lamb, an old-time professor of tho manly art Is not engaged at present. Farmer David of Gilliam wa lucky enough to dodge the rollcall on voting codes and session laws. Two years ago David voted for The Journal man's amendment that the codes re main tho property of the state. Lon Gesner, Jolntsenator for Marlon and Clackamas, is a practical man. He seldom speaks, but when he does, It Is for a clerkship or a rake-off. He now has the honor of having more in vestigating committees and clerk ships than almost any other member, and If his Industry was only largo enough to take them all in Lon would havo the fattest thing on the pay roll today. An Oregon McKtnlcylte and Bcn sonlto were discussing tho Friday effort to keep Davis out of his chair. The former Is a college president, but their conversation reads like tho talk of two anarchists: Bensonltc: "We formed a line about tho speaker's desk to provent Davis from taking his seat." College President. "If you had given them a real good drubbing, I think It would have pleased tho peoplo of Ore gon." The two exponents of intelligence and moral suasion then proceeded to inflat themselves still further with self-rightous honor and integrity. Following Is from tho pen of Hon Bon. nayden to one of the sliver re presentatives from Polk county. It has tho old-fashioned ring of a plain man of the peoplo addressing a legis lator what is his duty: "Hon. T. J. Leo. Dear Sir: Your constituents cordially endorse your course in tho legislature up to date and confidently rely on your good Judgment to direct you in tho future. Wo regard the pres ent tangle as a factional fight among tho Republicans. Let them fight to a finish. You have not been called upon to arbitrate the matter, and I would never volunteer to part other men's dogs for fear of being bit. nands off. It is dangerous to interforo with your neighbor's domestlo troubles. Pay no attention to anything lobbyists and strikers may say. Rest assured tho Democracy Is with you. We had bet ter have no legislature than such an one as we have had for soveral years past." O .-! Incorporated.
