United States. Senator John H. Mitch
ell addressed the Senate, Thursday of
! last week, on bit amendment to the
I pending bill to place certain articles en .
tiering the United Kialet lioin the Pbilip-
pines on the tree liat ; to levy a tariff of
60 per cent ol the Dingley rates opon ar-
j tides not admitted to the free list, and
to eliminate that portion of section three
of the bill which provides that the eame
tonnage Uz shall be levied on all vessels
J coin ieg from our insular possessions as
is levied on vessels coming from foreign
'countries.
Mitchell stated that it was neither ex
pedient nor right to apply to our insular
' nnsiHfuinna tlm aainA rnlu man, 'finer tnn
I I n
nige as is applied to foreign fessebi.
Speaking of the proposition of granting
trada concessions to Cub, Mr. Miuhell
said : "That we have as a nation given a
pledge that stable government shall be
established and maintained in Cuba is
conceded. This must be done and this
is being done. But this pledge does not,
I admit, impose upon us a duty to make
trade concessions to the planters and
producers of Cub which will militate
materially against the planters, agricul
turists and producers of our own country .
Such a concession It not an obligation
resting upon us, either expressly or by
implication. Of course, if a reciprocity
arrangement can be made with Cuba
which will be to the advantage of our
peui.le, or yhicb will not seriously affect
adversely any American interest or Amer
ican lalior, and which may be of benefit
to Cuban interests, then by all menus
let ns have it."
ContinuingwMitchell said:
"I submit further that if the policy en
forced in the last Congress of permitting
the products of Porto Kico to come to the
Unl ed Stales at 85 percent reduction of
the rates of duty imposed by the Dingley
act, and later on entirely free, and this all
largely in the interests of the trade and
commerce of the people of the Atlantic
SUtep, as well as the people of Porto
Kico. be right, then, upon what princple
'of right or justice or eouity must the
people of the Pacific Coast State pay the
same rates on Philippine products com
ing into ibis country that are imposed
by the Dingley act? Why impose one
rule on our insular possessions in the
the Atlantic Ocean and another on our
possessions in the Pacific Ocean ? What
occult f jrce, if any, is operating on the
Congress of the United States, and this,
to), with Congress seemingly being con
scious of the act, which seems to compel
the Nation's parliament to arrive at such
absolutely contradictory conclusions.
"We should give the Filipinos." he
urged, "concessions in trade which will
instill Into ttieir minds encouragement,
confidence and hope; which will caue
them to realize the wide difference be
tween the iron and hurtful rule of the
Spaniard and (he beneticent anil helpful
rule of the American."
.Protect the Sugar Beet.
Of the sugar beet question be said:
"Let Congress strike out boldly against
the manufacturing industries which have
ripened the gigantic trusts and which
have brought and are bringing to their
owners princely individual wealth, but
let Congress hesitate to strike down in
ItB Infancy an agricultural industry like
that of the sugar beet. The sugar trust,
and certain other formidable combina
tions that might be mentioned are able
10 stand alone. The beet sugir industry
is not. The lormer do not need protec
tion, the latter does."
Senator Mitchell observed that the
way for the United . States to hold its
share of Oriental trade was to get con
trol of the great transportation lines.
Representative Tongue introduced a
measure in i'i House, Saturday, pro
viding for an irrigation fund from the
sales of public lands. One half of this
fund Is to be st the disposal of the Sec
retary of the Interior for nse in examina
tions and surveys to ascertain the extent
to which arid lands may be reclaimed,
location of reservoir sites, available
amount of water and the gauge flow of
rivers. The other half of the fund is to
be placed at the disposal of the Secretary
of Agriculture to conduct investigations
of irrigation laws and investigate meth
ods by which water may be conserved,
distributed and used.
Senator Mitchell introduced a bill
Friday ratifying the agreement with the
Kathlamet band of Chinook Indians,
whereby they cede a tract of their Ore
gon land to the government.
Representative Tongue introduced a
bill authorizing adult Indian heir to
ell inherited lands. He also introduced
a bill appropriating $35,000 to pay the
Tillamook Indians for lands relinquished
to the government.
Senatjr Mitchell has presented to the
Senate a memorial lo the legislature of
Oregon, praying for an appropriation
of $44,000 to relieve Carry county from
Indebtedness Incurred in building a pxx-t
road along the Pacific coast, from the
Northern to Soothern boundary of the
county.
Senator Mitchell has presented to
Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, president of
the Convention of tbe National American
Woman Suffrage Association, and to
Miss Susan B. Anthony, his credentials
as a duly accredited delegate to that
convention from the Oregon Stste Equal
Suffrage Association, signed by Abigail
Scott Duniway, at president, and Ida H.
Blaine, as secretary pro tern, of said
Oregon ttate association, and he has
been duly admitted as a delegate to a
seat in the convention.
Hiram E. Mitchell, son of Senator
Mitchell, an Oregonian, nat been sp
pointed at large, to be First Lieutenant
of Artillery. Hiram Mitchell was cap
tair and quartermaster daring tbe
Spanish war, and was for a considerable
time in charge of the transport Buford,
which ran between New York and tbe
West Indies.
At Tuesdays session of the senate Sen
ator Mitchell took advantage of a favor
able opportunity and succeeded in hav
ing tbe Indian War Veteran Pension
Bill passed. T. A. Wood, of Portland,
grand commander of the Indian War
Veteran's is greatly elated over the pas
sags of tbe bill by the senate, and is
hopeful that tbe house will also pass the
measure. He sayt :
"Now that Senator Mitchell has se
cured the passage of our pension bill in
the senate I have full confidence in Con
gressman Tongue, who has charge of the
bill, being able to get it passed by the
house of representatives.
"Last session our congressmen worked
very bard to secure a favorable report
from the house committee on pensions.
They succeeded, but when the re part
was presented the original bill was so
changed that it left out all of the Wash
ington and Oregon war veterans. As
they had not been mustered into the
United States service it reckoned them
as simply territorial militia. The report
thus obtained paralyzed our congress
men for a time; it looked to them as
though nothing could be don to pension
there old veterans.
"Mr. Loudenslager, chairman of the
pension committee, said, however, 'If
yon can amend my bill so as to let your
Oiegon and Washington veterans in and
not admit other state and tenitoiial
militia, I will favor its passage.' To find
some way out of the difficulty Congress
man Tongue wrote to the United Stales
Treasurer to find whether or not Oregon
and Washington volunteers had been
recognized by the government and paid.
The reply was that the government had
paid them, and as these were the only
state and territorial volunteers who bad
been recognized in this way and made
United States volunteers by an act of
congresB, and who nad Deen paiu as
United States volunteers, it set at rest
the apprehensions of the pension com
mittee. The letter from the United
States Treasurer was filed with the pa
pers in the pension committee's office to
be used this session in connection with
this bill.
"Senate bill 640, which has just passed
the senate, is a copy of Chairman Loud
enslaver's pension committee bill with
the amendment in substance that if they
were paid by the United States then
thev were United States volunteers.
"The interview I had with the honor
able speaker of tbe house of representa
tive when in Washington D. C. last win
ter was so encouraging, though he made
no promises, I am justified in saying
that he will permit the senate bill to
come before the hoase of representatives
for approval this session.
Senator Mitchell lias giien notice of
his intention to offer an amendment to
to the Sundry Civil Ei.l, appropriating
$20,00(1 for additional improvements to
the Quarantine station at Astoria.
Improve Harbors-
Senator Mitchell has also given notice
of several amendments he is going to
offer to the River and Harbor bill unless
the House inserts the amendments be
fore, the measure reaches the Senate
One of the amendments appropriate j
$600,000 for the improvement of tbe
mouth of the Columbia, the work to be
done on the continuing contract system,
the total cost of which shall be $2,000,000.
Tbe lower Willamette and Columbia be

CITIZENS HOLD
CALLED MEETING
Decide to Pot Count j Ticket In
the Field.
DEMOCRATIC WAK HOUSES BOLTED
Robert A. Miller, Chairman, Aaiborlzed
te Name Campaign leminiitee
efXIue Members.
A meeting of about fifty "citizens,"
representing all tbe political parties that
have fiom time to time come up beiore
the people of Clackamas county in re
cent years, except perhaps the Pi obi bi
llon party, waa held in Oregon City
Tuesday, in response to a call issued by
the party leaders. After nearly an all
day session it was finally decided that a
"citizen's" ticket should be put in the
field at the coming June election.
Robert A. Miller, chairman of the Demo
cratic County Central Committee waa
Ibe chairman and O. W. Robbina, Demo
crat, was secretary of the meeting. Both
officers were cboeen as temporary in
cumbents at the morning session wlucli
waa held at the county court room.
This session adjoarned at 12 o'clock,
after numerous speeches bad been made
by C. D. Laioarette, (dem.,) O. W.
Easlham, (rep.) and other democrats
and populista complaining about the
various county burdens thrust npon the
people br the powers that be, and ad
journed till 1 o'clock o. m.
The afternoon session waa he!d in
Willamette ball. The question of a
name was one of considerable discussion.
There were a goodly number of Populist!
present and while they did not object to
the name "citizen," tbe Democrats, aouie
of thorn, like Mr. Ganong and Dave Cuu
field, wanted to slay by their party
name. Wnen finally Mr.J. P. Lovetl'a
motion that it is tbe sense of this meet
ing that a citizen's ticket be pat in the
field at the coming June elections, car
ried, by about 40 to 10, Messrs. Cautield,
Dribble, Vaughn and others of the old
liners, bolted the ball. An attempt waa
made to detain them oy explaining tbe
why and wberefor, but they wouldn't
see it that way, and left tbe building.
A motion waa then made by Dr. J. W.
Powell that the chair be authorized to
appoint a campaign committee of seven
to formala'e an address to the voters of
the county; to call a "Citizen's conven
tion and to apportion delegates to the
same." Harvey Cross, who during the
noon hour had prepared a set of resolu
lions looking to the same end, read his
document to the assemblage. Hip
di tiered from Dr. Powell's motion only
in a few minor details, substituting a
committe of "nine" instead of "seven"
and with tbe consent of the doctor, Mr.
Cross's resolution ns, alter being pruned
down some, were adopted.
Chairman Robert A. M Her did not
appoint the campaign committee at that
time, but stated that he would take tbe
matter up carefully and arrange the per
sonnel of the committee to suit all the
political faiths represented. During the
meeting Democratic War Horse Uauong,
whoa'l the nay through was stoutly
against giving up the name "Democrat,"
asked the chairman a stumper. He
said : "How is it Mr. Chairman, can you,
as Chairman of the Democratic County
Central Committee, call a meeting of
that organization, and also act In the ca
pacity ot Chairman of the Citizeu's pai ty,
and make a call for a county conven
tion?" Mr. Miller confessed that he
was in a rather delicate position, but con
gratulated himself that he was not out
for any office, and thought be would
come out all right in the end. Mr.
Ganong was still unable to get through
bis bead what was going to come of the
Democratic party, and exclaimed in a
loud voice: "Why, it is utterly impos
sible to do away with the Democratic
party; the party that stands and has al
ways stood at tbe foundation of the
