DIMICK URGED TO
(Continued from page 1)
it. is said that if he should be a can
didate for Congress he will get heavy
support from the working classes.
Dimick is serving his second term as
a member of the State Senate.
A dogged fight by Dimick this after
noon resulted in the defeat in the
Senate of the bill of Representative
Parsons, providing for the creation of
the organization of new counties. Cal
kins moved that the Senate go into
committee of the whole to consider
an amendment made by himself for
its consideration. This Dimick ob
jected to and succeeded in defeating
it. Calkins then moved that the bill
be laid on the table until next week.
This move Dimick also blocked. Dim
ick then moved that the bill be indef
initely postponed.
' The motion carried with 17 Sena
tors voting in favor of the motion.
Calkins' main contention was that the
bill would furnish a working basis
for the formation of pew counties
when such are needed. In a debate
on the bill Friday Nuener and Dimick
declared that if it became a law the
number of counties in Western Ore
gon would double in the next' two
years. The bill provided that only
the persons in sections wishing to
secede had a right to vote on a prop
osition to divide a county.
Seven runaway members of the
House of Representatives riding on
an Oregon Electric train were accost
ed at West Woodburn this evening
as a result of a telegram order sent
by Speaker MteArthur when he dis
covered that he did not have a quo
rum to do business in the night ses
sion. The members refused to return
and bench warrants for their arrest
on a eontempt charge will be issued.
Other members are also offenders.
Lewelling, Chapman and Thomas were
arrested by Sergeant-at-arms Singer
just as they were ready to board an
out-going train. Parsons, who had
gone to his home at Eugene, has been
ordered to return.
By a vote of 17 to 11 the Senate
killed the cement sack bill when it
came up for reconsideration this af
ternoon. Out of courtesy to Senator
Moser, who wished to vote for the
bill, Senator Calkins, who opposed it.
moved for its reconsideration. Moser
was absent when the vote was taken
Friday.

office. At 4 o'clock a clerk took some
bills in and the chief executive was not
there. A stenographer refused to re
ceipt for the bills on the grounds
that she was not authorized to do so.
At that time Senator Thompson sug
gested that a sort of summons be is
sued and the girl compelled to sign
them.
On the grounds that it was a legal
holiday, the Governor closed his of
fice and decamped for parts unknown,
leaving the Legislature "in the hole".
It will be Monday before he will have
to receipt for any more bills, and
there will be a great mass of them
from both houses. By closing Ms of
fice Friday afternoon and Saturday

he has gained two and a half days on
the Legislature. Monday the bills
will come in and the Governor will
have until Friday to sign or veto them.
This will enable him to swamp both
houses with vetoed bills if he chooses
to do so. There are so many bills on
third reading in the House and Sen
ate now that it is not improbable that
Governor will be able to turn loose
another flood of "vetoes a few days
afterward. Lawyers in both houses
cite that in 1895 Governor Lord sign
ed bills and both houses were in ses
sion on Washington's birthday, and
declare that Governor West's action
has no foundation in law.
The Governor now has on hand
among others, ' the general oppripria
tion bill carrying an aggregate of
$1,200,000. Buried in this is the al
lowance for the salaries of clerks and
stenographers in the Legislature. Be
cause the Governor has not signed
it, they cannot get their pay at least
until Monday. It is also rumored that
the Govenor may veto this bill because
it carries appropriations for the Ne
vai Militia and various other items
he is opposed to. The Legislature
has resolved to hold over an extra
Week, and the chief executive might
veto this bill and force the Ways and
Means Committee to draw up another.
The Governor, not having power to
veto individual items will have to
either sign and approve the whole
bill, or reject it.

the general opinion of the members
that the farmers did not receive what
they should at the hands of the ma
jority of the Oregon City merchants.
It was stated that the merchants of
this city did not pay as good prices
as did those of Portland and that
they would. not make extra efforts to
accommodate the farmers. Another
grievance that aroused the animos
ity of one or two of the members, was
the allegation that most of the mer
chants of the city refused to pay casn
for the farmers' produce and insisted
upon barter.
A. J. Lewis stated that he found
the merchants of this city wanted ev
erything their own way and that it
was difficult to get cash from the
farmers. William Beard said that the
farmers were under no moral obliga
tion to the merchants and that they

Farmers purchasing from mail or

for a fair amount of discussion. It
was stated by several of the members
that the goods from some of the mail
order houses than in Oregon
City. Grange Master Dimick ask
ed if it were not true that the
stores of Oregon City were bet
ter than they were formerly. It
was stated that they were. L. O.
Harding of Oregon City, said that the
stores were much better than former
ly, and that there was now a keener
competition among the merchants. .
Mrs. C. W. Swallow stated that the
women would go to the stores where
the best bargains were given and the
greatest amount of trading stamps
could be obtained.
Robert Ginther stated his views on
supply and demand with reference to
the price paid to farmers. The ques
tion to be discussed at the next meet
ing is: "Which Is the Most Advis
able for the General Public, the Ex
tension of the Agricultural Knowledge,
that is the Raising of More Produce,
or Looking Alter Better Distribution
