Things Dene by Solons, Past and
. Present Normal Schools and
Mitchell Resolutions.
y Salem, February 10. Senator
Walter Pierce of Pendleton, is a
newly appointed regent of the Ag
ricultural College. He was named
by Governor Chamberlain for the
vacancy made by the death of J. M.
Church. - Senator Pierce is one of
the best known men in Eastern
Oregon, and incidentally is one of
the brightest members of the Ore
gon senate. He conducts a farm
of several thousand acres in Uma
tilla county, and has a law practice
in Pendleton. He was once a
country school teacher, and for a
round dozen years was engaged in
public school work, either as teach
er or principal.' He served several
terms as county school superintend
ent, a term or two as county clerk
and is now a hold over senator.
He has accumulated a handsome
competence, and at perhaps'45 is a
success in life. He is affable and
amiable, and is one of the most
popular legislators now at the cap
i a1., as we 1 as ohe; of the most in
fluential, Geographical reasons
made an Eastern Oregon appoint
ment necessary, and preeminent
qualifications made the selection of
Senator Pierce a happy one. The
appointment was made while he
was recommending other residents
of- his sectton for the place. Gov
ernor Chamberlain made the nomi
nation in response to the request of
Hon. B. G. Jeedy, master of
the state grange, who, with
others, pressed the name of Sen
ator Pierce for the place.
In its late resolutions of indorse
ment, the legislature gave Senator
Mitchell all it had to give., : In
view of the facts, it gave the Senat
or a great, great deal. President
Roosevelt is known to be behind
the prosecutions that have resulted
in the double indictment of Senator
Mitchell. . This same President
Roosevelt once approved the dis
missal from high position of an
Oregon man, and the republicans
of Oregon at once sent that man to
congress.. Binger Hermann's elec
tion under the circumstances was
a hard slap at the administration.
The administration, now that Mr.
Hermann has been indicted by an
Oregon- grand jury, thinks Mr.
Hitchcock acd Mr. Roosevelt were
right, and that the republicans of
Oregon were; wrong as; to the late
land commissioner. Now, however,
when President Roosevelt's prose
cutor, especially appointed to push
the land iiaud cases, and his grand
jury return indictments ; against
Senator Mitchell and the state leg'
islature in unmistakable language
heartily indorses Senator Mitchell,
the question becomes, what does
President Roosevelt think about it?
State it as you please, dress up.the
language as you please, this one
thing is true;yin" order to indorse
the Senator, the president had to
be slapped; and it is the secoud
slap Mr.: Roosevelt 7 has received
from Oregonrepublicans. " 1 He got
one on the right cheek, and - then
he turned ' the left ' and thev
didn't do a thing but smite.
Once before Oregon republicans
resoluted for Senator Mitchell.
That was right after he was elected
United States Senator for the first
time. ; W. Xair Hill, 'in tb Ore
gonian had just exposed the exist
ence of the Pennsylvania family.
Joseph Wilson, congressman from
Oregon had died and a special elec
tion was" to be held to fill the va
cancy. The republican convention
Lmet at Albany, - in the spring of
1872 to name a candidate, .friends
of Senator Mitchell feared that an
uncontradicted " story of :the -Pennsylvania
incident would prevent the
Senator from returning to his seat
at Washington. They demanded
that certain commendatory reso
lutions be passed by the Albany
convention. Others resisted, and
there was a's fight on the floor of
the convention. Captain Apper
sori, Benton Killin, - Harvey Scott
and others were among the dele
gates. The Mitchellites won, and
the platform carried with it a-plank
declaring that Oregon republicans
in convention assembled did hot
believe the story, about 1 Senator
Mitchell, and that they hereby re
newed their confidence in his integ
rity, sobriety and virtue, or words
to that effect.1 With the adoption
of the platform a number of stal
warts bolted. When it' came time
to nominate, Dr. E. R. Geary,
whom it was expected all along to
be the -nominee, declared on the
floor of the convention . that he
would not accept the nomination
on such a platform. Others were
sought to accept the honor, but it
was not until after much delay that
Hiram Smith, - a Harrisburg mer
chant finally announced - that0 he
would accept the nomination and
make the race on that platform.
He was named, but he was overwhelmingly-'
beaten in the election
by the,.' late J. W. Nesmith." Old
time republicans at the Capitol tell
over again the story of the old re
solutions as they laugh about the
new, whi:h new' pronunciamento
went through under stress of being
a rider to a motion for final ad
journment. ' v
The bill granting authority to
Corvallis to issue bonds for con
struction of a water works-and ap
pointing a water commission to
build and conduct the plant has
passed both houses, and has proba
bly been signed by the Governor.
It passed the Senate a couple of
weeks ago, and passed the House
without change Wednesday at an
evening session, lhe amendments
to the city, charter, which passed
the Senate some time ago; alsp pass
ed the House Wednesday evening.
Bills to eliminate Normal schools
have a rocky road to travel. Dan
gers environ and assail such bills
at every turn. So far an untimely
fate has awaited every ; measure
aimed at destruction of a Normal.
Senator Miller's bill in the Senate
proposed to abandon all but bae of
them, and it died a violent "death.
It was debated with great vigor
and much ability at a special order
Wednesday forenoon. The fight
lasted two hours, . with Senators
Miller, Hodson and others for the
bill, and Senators Pierce, Kuyken-
dall, Coshow, Whealdon, and oth
ers against. Seventeen nays and
twelvea yaes was the final vote,
taken mid a breathless silence, for
there was extreme interest in the
outcome of the struggle.
The scene called to mind . anoth
er legislative occurrence of a score
of yeaTs ago, more or less. , That
other incident happened at a time
when . there was no Oregon State
Normal school. . A pending measure
the House proposed the estaDhsh
ment of one. Friends of the meas
ure were converting Christian Col-:
lege at Monmouth into a State
Normal school. A plea was that
little or no state support would be
required. . The figure then asked
was perhaps $8,000 in all. . Eight
thousand dollars for the entire nor-r
mal school work of Oregon for two
years. That was , not very many
years ago. , Several people in- Ore
gon that sat Wednesday m the Sen
ate lobby and listened to the debate
on Miller's bill, sat also in the
House lobby on that other occas
ion and heard the public promises
that little or no state aid would be
required for the normal work if the
state would only accept the tender
ed college, and make of it the Ore
gon State Normal. . The normal
work for the next two years, if the
legislature allows the amounts ask
ed by the four Normal schools will
be $217,000 or $211,000 more than
m those halcyon days when the
state first launched out in the Nor
mal school business. What if the
good work should go on at the
same rate of . increase, and if so
what would be the Normal school
item in the appropriation budget
a dozen years hence? : '
1 They say Miller s bill would
have passed the Senate ' if it had
provided for abandonment., of all
but two of the Normals. That
may be true. Talk in the lobby
afterward was that" a Normal at
Ashland and another at Weston
would be all right. Possibly; such
a measure might have passed the
Senate. It would doubtless, have
failed however in the House, where
a Yamhill merabers bill, providing
for that very- thing, never got past
the committee. A great many
people would ave liked -" to see
Miller s bill pass, and they say so.
There is talk that such a bill may
be taken up(for passage ' by the in
itiative and referendum. That is
one way in which the log rolling
that perpetuates ' the Normals,
would be impossible, and the aband
onment of some of the Normal in
stitutions be sure ! to be provided
for. :, ;.-s.- -.
The bill td abolish the Drain
Normal was knocked out in; the
House today.' The vote was 34 to
25. As originally introduced the
bill provided for abandonment of
two of the Normals. . The commit
tee amended it so as to provide for
abandonment of the Drain school,
reducing the whole number to three.
Wise ones have guessed from the
very first that even as amended the
bill had no chance to survive, and
its violent death today shows how
hard it is to kill off even one little
Normal.
