and promising them remedial legisla

Tub official vol lor vice-president
was : Hobart, 271 ; Sewall, 149 ; Wat-
sen, 27. If Bryan had been elected
there would have been no election of
vice-president by the people. The
populists would have enjoyed that sit
uation immensely.

if the senate haa alre idy adjourned
for it ci.uld not proceed with business
any more than the senate could while
the house wa unorganised.
Abundant opportunity is offered Mr.
Simon for making a lest of his ruling
that ifr resolution adopted by the ma
jority of the senate to adjourn without
date was unconstitutional There are
number of senator' who will refuse
to again enter the senate until a decis
ion by the con its i bad, or they are
convened in extra session by a procla
mation from the governor. Now let
Mr. Simon order en of those senator
arrested aud brought before the bar of
the senaUt to show cause whv he
should absent himself therefrom. In
this manner the matter can at once
be brought before the circuit court,
ana a speedy decision from the su
preme court can be had upon the qnes

Job Simos in teaching the populists
the trick of holding np the legislature
is cutting a club that i liable to crack
hi own head some day. For should
the turmoil" that b ha etirred np in
the republican party result ia sending
eleven populists to the senate at some
future election, these eleven men
could hold op th entire legislature
of Oregon, and should be be fortunate
or unfortunate, enough to be a mem
ber at that time, tbey would be just
as liable to put their hold-up on against
him as they now have been to favor
him with it. Some day the people of
Oregon will have their constitution so
amended as to prevent a handful of
men from blocking all legislation and
robbing the taxpayers. Oregon City

Jhc rump senate, which has
been holding daily session at
Salem tine the regular senate and
house adjourned one week ago, has
dissolved and th members gone
home. An attempt was made by
Simon, Bourne, et. aL to compel the
men who had been faithful to their
trust by staying there during the 40
dsy to stay indefinitely, but the at
tempt failed flatly. The fag end of
the disgrace has quit, and we trust the
state will never be cursed with another
such. The only remedy by which the
peopl might get relief is through a
special session which may be called at
the option of the governor. It might
be added in this connection that the
rump Davis house, with half a dozen
members and ten sergeants at-arms, is
still holding daily sessions in the
lioufe chamber. They probably have
not yet, in their wisdom, learned that

not be carried out to the letter, and
we predict they will be." Th Mist
do not dispute the fsct that the re
publican had large majority in
both houses, but "a large msjority"
doe not necessarily mak a quorum
Tbirty-one would be a majority of tbe
house, while it takes 40 or two-thirds
to do busines. Thirty-eight is
large msjonty" of 60 but it is not th
necessary two-thirds. In th senate
the republicans had enough to make
a quorum and tbey promptly proceeded
to business on tbe first day, showing
that party to be in good faith. Why
did not lb bonse do likewisef Simply
because tbe opposition to the republi
cans had a sufficient number to ob
struct, and ibree-fourth of that op
position were populists, who were the
personal guast of Jonathan Bourne
at the Eldridce block, where
number claimed they had free board,
uugjug, wnisKy, oigsrs na women as
long a they desired to remain there.
Again Tbs Mist predicted that the
pledges would b carriMl mil in it, a
letter because it thought after the
populist had shouted so long and
lood for reform ther would be in their
seats like men and take th oath of
otnee instead of skulkine abont the
state house trying to keep out of sight
of tbe speaker. The iiinr again prs-
uicts mat moae pledge would have
been made good bad not the populists
prevented tbe organization of the
bouse.
