NO CHANGE IN SIGHT
Senatorial Situation Shows
No Visible Movement.
M'BRIDE MAY RE-ENTER RACE
fndse "William Likely to Hold Mi
nority Vote for Few Day Pen.
nojer Advises Democrats
Also to Vote for'Him.
SALEM. Or., Feb. 10. There has been
no visible movement of any kind today
to Indicate any sort of change in the Sen
atorial fight tomorrow; The -various lead
ers have been out of the city, and no
new plans have been formulated, so far
as can be ascertained. The Republican
minority will probably continue to vote
Tor Judge Williams for a day or two Then
they may take up other Republicans sue
cesslvely. Just to show that any candidate
is acceptable to them but Mr. Corbett
There are hints that this is Indeed their
exact plan, and that the ultimate purpose
Is to return to Mr. McBride or Mr
Mitchell. Senator McBride will in any
event. It Is said, return and remain till
the end of the fight. It is possible that
in the course of a few days Blnger Her
mann will receive the votes of the oppo
sition. If all the minority votes yester
day cast for Judge Williams were to tie
added to Mr. Hermann's eight, the total
would be 32, one more than are at present
voting for Mr. Corbett, but It is known
that there are members of the minority
.who are very much opposed to Mr. Her
mann, and who have not hesitated to say
o It may therefore be dlfiicult to de
l'ver the 24 to him, even for the purpose
of carrying out the complimentary game.
The Democrats will probably have a cau
cus tomorrow night, and the committee
appointed to confer with the minority Re
publicans will then be expected to report
progress. A letter said to have been
V'rltten by ex-Governor Pennoyer to Judge
Eweek, advising the Democrats to vote
for Judge AVlillams, may then be pre
sented. It Is not at all likely that it will
have much effect. The day has long since
passed when any suggestion from Mr.
Pennoyer to the Democracy of the state
la potent. There is no sentiment what
ever among them for Judge Williams.
RAILROAD BILLS IX HOUSE.
Ttto 3Ieasnrea Will Be Pat on Final
Possaee Tills AVcelc.
SALEM, Or., Feb. 10. The fifth week
of the Legislative session gives promise
of being far more Interesting in the
House than any of the prior proceedings.
Under special order the railroad bills,
five In number, come up for discussion
and fina' passage. These bills are:
House bill No. 15, by Colvig, amending
law relating to traffic on railroads.
House bill No. 40, by Carter, to restrict
railroad passenger rates.
House bill No. 41. by Butt, regulating
passenger and freight rates.
House bill No. SO, by Poorman, fixing
the liability of corporations for injuries
to employes (the fellow-servant act).
House bill No. 107. by Miller, to create
a board of railroad commissioners.
The House committee on railroads and
transportation presented unfavorable re
ports on the three bills designed to re
duce the rates of passenger traffic, but
Butts, one of its members, domurred and
filed a minority report In each Instance.
JThis brought about a general discussion,
resulting in not only those particular
three bills, but those introduced by Poor
man and Miller, being made a special
order for Monday.
Opinion is divided among the members
regarding the bills proposing to reduce
passenger rates on the railroads. It is
argued by some that the amendment to
the bills, exempting all roads operated
entirely in Oregon, from the reduction, Is
really unconstitutional, and the railroad
companies will really exert no strenuous
opposition to passage in their present
form.
The Poorman liability bill makes It
unlawful for any railroad or railway cor
poration or company owning and operat
ing, or operating, or that may hereafter
own or operate a railroad In whole or in
part in this state to adopt or promulgate
any rule or regulation for the govern
ment of its servants or employes, or
make or enter into any contract or agree
ment with any person engaged in, or
about to engage in Its services, iii which,
or by the terms of which such employ
In any manner, directly or indirectly
promises or agrees to hold such corpor
ation or company harmless on account of
any Injury he may receive by reason of
any accident, to breakage, defect or in
sufficiency in the cars or machinery and
attachments thereto belonging, upon any
cars so owned or operated, or being run
and operated by such corporation, or com
pany, being defective, and any such rule,
regulation, contract or agreement shall
be of no effect This measure has al
ready been printed in full in The Ore
gonlan. It had exactly the same his
tory m the House as the rate reduction
measures. Heltkemper made a minority
report against the majority, who re
ported unfavorably. The minority re
port was adopted by the House, and
therefore the House is practically on rec
ord as favoring the Poorman measure.
The Miller bill provides for appointment
by the Governor of the railroad commis
sioners, who will receive a salary of $2500
annually, and the board is authorized to
employ a clerk at a salary of J2000 annually.
County seems to be confined entirely to
residents of that section, who have taken
the Initiative. in the matter Thus far
Union County Is putting up little. If any,
defense, possibly trusting to the good ldck
that came its way In the past when a
similar attempt was made. The Baker
County people here are taking little In
terest in the proposed annexation. Some
openly express the view that It Is a bad
time for Baker to attempt increase of
its boundaries, when schemes are being
agitated to wrest from It a part of the
territory it now holds title to The move
to create another county, and the ambi
tion of people living in the Sumpter dis
trict to have a county of their own, impel
many of the Baker County people to con
sider that it is a good thing to let well
enough alone. So they are not showing
any great spirit of interest over the Pan
handle community effort to gain a change
of rulers.
THIRD READING OF HOUSE BILLS.
Measure Affecting: Multnomah
Conntr Come Up This Week.
SALEM. Feb. 10.-A great portion of
this week In the House will be devoted

eration of a number of measures affect

hands of the Multnomah delegation, but
the members have so far been unable to
agree upon a report.
Baker Indifferent to Expansion.
SALEM. Feb. 10. Baker County seems
to have greatness thrust upon It. The
effort to annex the Panhandle of Union
Oltl Joke Not Yet Perpetrated.
SALEM. Feb 10 No one of the legal
lights In the House has yet, in a mo
ment of mental abstraction, bowed down
with the weight of professional thought,
had the temerity to address the Speaker
of the House as "your honor." It always
happens, and there are yet two weeks
of lime in which &ome one or more can
perpetuate the time-honored Joke.
DROVE OVER EMBANKMENT.
An Unknown Man at Salem Seriously
Injured Thereby.
SALEM. Or., Feb. 10. An unknown
man. about 30 years of age, and reported
to be a resident of the vicinity of Mill
City.-'drove over an embankment in the
outskirts of this city last night, and sus
tained a severe fracture of the skull. He
has been unconscious since the accident,
and the chances for his recovery are
slight. He Is above medium size, has a
brown mustache, wore a brown duck
coat, black vest, blue overalls, and drove
a roan horse. The buggy had no top. A
bill of sale dated September 25, 1900, no
place given, was found In his pocket.
This Indicates that the man's name is J.
C. Young, and that he bought his horse
from a man named John Pike. He had
in his buggy a butcher knife and whet
stone, and may have been a butcher. The
accident happened while he was trying
to leave town on the Turner road, and
lost his way on a dark street.

With Only Ttrelve Days Left. Mat
ters of First Importance Remain
to Be Disposed Of.
SALEM, Or.. Feb. 10. Twenty-eight
days of the Legislative session have
passed and but 12 remain. The last day
will fall upon February 22, a legal holi
day. The Legislature will therefore prob
ably adjourn sine die on the evening of
February 21, or hold a last session on
February 23. The members -will receive
no compensation for time they may put
in after February 22.
With less than one-third of the whole
time remaining, he Legislature has yet to
take final action upon those matters which
are of first importance, and which "will
require the closest and greatest amount
of attention. Bills relating to assess
ment and taxation, or, rather, the equali
zation of assessments, are still in the
hands of committees, and unless taken up
out of their regular order, can scarcely
be acted upon before the last week of
the session. There are several measures
pending for the increase of "state reve
nues, and each of these will occupy con
siderable time. The primary election
bills, general public school bills and spe
cial appropriation bills are other measures
that will be subjects of exhaustive dis
cussion and will consume no small amount
of time.
The Senate has already on third read
ing bills enough to occupy the attention
of that body all this week. Two import
ant bills have been made special orders
for Monday afternoon Brownell's bill to
provide relief for various orphans homes,
and the bill by Smith of Baker to license
stationary engineers. These, with the
reading of reports, messages, etc., will
occupy the greater part of the afternoon.
The bills which should, In regular order,
come up for final passage next week are
as follows:
S. B. 63, by Looney, to provide for the
election of a Dairy and Food Commis
sioner. S. B. 84, by Hunt, to provide for the
erection of a monument to the Second
Oregon Volunteers.
S. B. 116, by Daly, to regulate the sale
of school and university land.
S. B. 131, by Inman, relating to the con
duct of elections.
S. B. 37, by Brownell, to provide for
the publication of a revised code of Ore
gon. S. B. 79, by Stelwer, to amend the act
creating "Wheeler County.
S. B. 81, by Proebstel, to prohibit the
use of nickel-in-the-slot machines.
S. B. 82, by Inman, relating to the filing
of supplementary articles of incorpora
tion. S. B. 90, by Sweek, to fix the compen
sation of Justices of the Peace and Con
stables in certain counties.
S. B. Ill, by Inman, to amend the law
relating to the taking of depositions of
witnesses.
S. B. 115, by Wade, to regulate the fees
to be paid to county officers.
S. B. 120, by Sweek, fixing the amount
of costs to be allowed the prevailing party
in suits and actions.
S. B. 129, by Hunt, to amend the regis
tration law.
S. B. 128, by Inman, 'to define the liabil
ity of owners of vessels for damage to
property on land.
S. B. 146, by Booth, to regulate the loca
tion of mining claims.
S. B. 151, by Fulton, to amend the law
prescribing the manner of redeeming prop
erty from execution sale.
S. B. 152, by Inman, to regulate corpora
tions. S. B. 154, by Adams, to protect plate
glass. S. B. 155, by Wehrung, to repeal the law
relating to Jury lists in Justices Courts.
S. B. 163, by Mulkey, to provide for the
appointment of a matron at the peniten
tiary. S. B. 36, by Mulkey, to fix liability of
Sheriffs for uncollected taxes.
S. B. 39, by Mulkey, to prescribe the
powers of a guardian of an insane person.
S. B. 40, by Mulkey, to provide for the
taxation of dogs.
S. B. 114, by Fulton, relating to the resi
dence of directors of incorporations.
S. B. 143, by Booth, to protect hotel
and boarding-house keepers.
In addition to these Senate bills, the
Senate has before it about a score of
House bills that have not passed to second
reading. That the Senate will be able to
put ail of these House bills on third read
ing this week, without taking them up
out of the regular order, is Improbable.
The Portland charter bill, which was In
troduced in the Senate Saturday, was not
expected to pass the Legislature as Intro
duced. It Is imperfect in several import
ant particulars, but was introducd In that
condition in order to secure a place upon
the calendar, and hasten Its passage. The
bill was read twice and referred to a spe
cial committee, composed of the members
of the Multnomah delegation. The delega
tion will give the bill their first attention
and will probably be able to report It
back to the Senate In perfect form by the
middle of this week.
Another matter to come up for recon
sideration on Monday will be the pro
posed woman's suffrage amendment to
the constitution. It was defeated last
Friday, but some of the chivalrous mem
bers are "willing to give the promoters of
the measure one more try to secure favor
able consideration. The resolution has
passed the Senate, but from present Indi
cations the House will not recede from its
position taken when the resolution was
first voted upon.
The bill giving 15000 to the Oregon His
torical Society will be considered in the
House tomorrow afternoon under a spe
cial order. Its consideration is not likely
to take up any considerable time, as no
opposition to the measure has been awakened.

ASSAULTED BY PARTNER.
Oregon Man Had Trouble With Boise
Blacksmith.
BOISE, Ida., Feb. 10. George W. Ba
con, a blacksmith of Nyssa, Or., is In
the hospital here in a precarious condi
tion, the result of a blow on the head
by William Hoxie, his partner. The lat
ter struck him over the right temple
with a doubletree. The assault took
place in Bacon's shop, Wednesday morn
ing, but he was not taken to the hospital
till last night. The two men had had
trouble over their partnership, but could
not agree on dissolution. They had
some words In the shop Wednesday
morning, Bacon finally telling Hoxie to
take the whole thing. Then he turned
his back to Hoxie and began working
about the forge. Hoxie picked up a
whiffietree and struck Bacon a terrible
blow over the temple, crushing the skull.
Many splinters of bone were taken from
the wound here. He is a strong man and
may recover, though great anxiety is felt.

career Sir William Herschcl showed himself a
"stayer." Lacking money to get the sort of tele

CO-OPERATIVE MEAT MARKET.
Oregon Cltr Cltixena Decided to Or
ga'nlxe Stock Company.
OREGON CITY, Feb. 10. A mass meet
ing of citizens was held in the County
Court room of the Court House last
night, for the purpose of discussing the
proposition to organize a citizens co
operative meat market. About 200 persons
were present, mostly employes of the
mills and factories here. On February 1
the butchers of the city announced an
increase in the price of all meats of from
1 cent to G cents on the pound. They
claim that the rise in the price of live
stock made this increase in the retail
price necessary. But the consumers con
sider the prices exorbitant and unreason
able, and declare they cannot pay them.
Steaks that were 12 cents a pound are
now 18 and 20 cents, and all other meats
In proportion.
At the meeting last night It was de
cided to organize a joint stock company
with a capital of $2000, at 5 a share; to
establish and operate a meat market for
the purpose of furnishing meats at a min
imum cost. A committee was appointed
to draft articles of incorporation, and
other necessary papers.
The local butchers are very much exer
cised over the movement. They say that
if it is carried out it will drive them
out of the business, as they are selling
meiits now just as low as they possibly
can to make any profit at all. One thing
is certain, the majority of the laboring
people cannot afford to buy 18-cent meat
on the wages they receive for their labor
In the mills and factories here. It is ex
pected that the butchers will take some
action looking to a compromise with the
citizens, and try to stop the organization
of the company.
