Twenty-five leading youog women of
of the city created something of a sensa
tion Monday night by attending the
Jessie Shirley Company's first night in a
body, having previously secured reserved
seats conveniently near each other. It
was a hard hit at the young men of the
city and was the more noticeable on ac
count of the large crowd present. After
the young women were seated, and a
young man chanced to enter accom
panied by his best girl, the applause was
enthusiastic. At the second night's
play a young man accompanied a young
I waman, who paid his way.

If anyone read the Oregon City edition
of the Evening Telegram, what it con
tained Monday evening would be a base
Blander to Oregon City people. In
speaking of the reception tendered the
legislators on their return Sunday, it
said : "It was a noisy crowd that had
gathered, and they kept it up until late
in the evening." There is not a word of
truth in this. After a little, demonstra
tion on the arrival of the train, the city
was orderly and quiet as on any- other
Sunday.
On last Saturday the Oregon City &
Southern Railway Company filed a
suit against the Oregon & California
Railroad Company and Southern Pa
cific Company, asking for the privilege
of crossing or intersecting the tracks of
the defendants at Catiemah. The plain
tiffs recite that no satisfactory terms or
arrangements can be made with the de
fendants in the matter of crossing said
tracks, aa to compensation' or grade of
crossings. The plaintiff asks the court
to grant it the privilege of crossing
said tracks at grade, and to name the
renumeration to be paida for such privi
leges.
A Clackamas county attache of the
late legislature gives his version of the
Gates money racket, which he asserts is
the true facts in the premises. Gates is
from Woodburn, and served as a janitor
in the court house. While in the library
of the capitol building he overheard two
men talking, one of them saying that he
intended to change his vote for senator
on the following day. Gates, it is said,
went to one of the senatorial headquar
ters, and informed the candidate that
he could secure a vote for him, pro
vided that he bad $1500. The money
was paid over in $100 bills, and the
goods were apparently delivered as the
legislator changed his vote for senator
on the next day. Subsequently it was
learned that the legislator had not re
ceived the money, and steps were taken
by Representative Poorman and H. L.
Gill to get the money away from' Gates.
Gates was arrested with $1300 of the
money on his person, but no one ap
peared to prosecute him. He was dis
charged from custody Monday, and the
money was returned to him.

Legislative Aftermath.
The state barber commission is dead,
became the legislature refused to sanc
tion its graft. They wanted the privi
lege of collecting $1 from each barbel to
pay the expenses of tho commission.
For the past two years the commission
has travelled over the state on junket
ing trips, drinking good whiskey, etc.,
while the owners of barber shops aud
journeymen workmen footed the bills.
Senator Porter's bill to reduce the
county judge's salary in Clackamas from
$1100 to $750 per annum, to take effect
in 1902, has passed the house. It will
be the same old Btory ; the next legisla
ture will restore the former salary.
Woodburn Independent.
According to the report of the House
committee on mileage and per diem,
each member is entitled to $3 per ' day
for 40 days and 15 cents a mile for each
mile traveled in going to and returning
from the legislature. The claims ot the
Clackamas county house members were
as follows : G. L. Hedges, 30 miles, to
tal, $139.50; J. L. Kruse, 390 miles, to
tal. $178 50; J. A. Talbert, 188 miles,
total, $1J8 20; A 3 Dresser, 74 miles,
total $131 10. Extra compensation, J.
A. Talbert. 104 miles, fisheries; G. L.
Hedges, 53 miles, investigating deaf
mute school; J. L. Kruse, 290 miles,
investigating soldier's home, Roseburg.
Kruse lived nearer Salem than any
other Clackamas county member, and
drew down the most mileage. Probably
he is trying to get back some of the
money that he invested in the Enter
prise. It is also stated that Kruse's
daughter is a regular house committee
clerk.
Senator Brownell has distinguished
himself by making the nominating
speeches that elected botn Simon and
Mitchell.
A. R. Mattoon, the member from
Douglas, whose vote made Mitchell
United States Senator, was born and
spent his boyhood days in Clackamas
county.
Clerks from Clacsamas county, who
served on special committees, received
the following compensation : E. C. llac!"
ett, 38 days, at $3.50, W; J. 11
Darline. 37 days, at $3.50. 129.50; Flor
ence Olson, 18 days, $45; Agnes Mather,
of Clackamas Station, 21 dayB at $3 per
day and $5 mileage to and from Port
land, total, $63. Hackett and
i Darling have likely fallen into a snap by
by the discovery oi irauas in ine
state lanl department, and it is likely
that their work will continue for some
months.
Hedges is the only Glackamns county
member, who voted to reduce the fare
on railroads from four to three cants a
mile.
A Clackamas county member is ac
cused of holding up the bill that de
clared against the practice of brokers
charging usurious rates of iuterest. The
bill had passed the senate, hut could
not be gotten out of the hands of the
1'idiciary committee for action by the
house.
