Stubborn Senatorial Deadlock
in Kentucky Legislature.
n BECKHAM 1'S. IN-HIGH HOPES
Should Judge Paynter Withdraw, tlic
Present Governor Says There
Will Be a Stampede
to 311m.
FRANKFORT, Ky., Dec 31. With the
Democratic Senate and House caucuses
only 24 hours away. Governor J. C. W.
Backhaul Is being frequently mentioned
as the man whose nomination would set
tle what promises to be one of the most
memorable and stubborn Senatorial dead
locks in the, history of Kentucky. Dur
ing, tho past 24 hours the situation has
changed but little, there being no per
ceptible variation In the strength of
United States Senator J. C. S. Blackburn
and Thomas H. Paynter, the leaders, nor
of B. TV. Haldeman, the man who, with
the smallest number of votes, apparently
holds tho key to the situation.
Tho Haldeman men are apparently
standing firm. Both sides are still claim
ing sufficient strength to nominate the
Speaker of the House, but as the Black
burn and Haldeman forces have appar
ently combined to organize the House,
the poll of their announced supporters
Feems numerically the stronger. How
ever, the Speakership Is complicated by
"the fact that some of the leglslatois are
not following the lines of division which
prevail in the Senatorial fighL
Lieutenant-Governor Thorne has an
nounced that in case Governor Beckham
should be put forward as a candidate he
will resign, thus allowing the president
of the Senate pro tern, to become Gover
nor. The Lieutenant-Governor's an
nouncement was made following pub
lished declarations that the leaders of
the Democratic1 party would oppose any
movement whereby he would succeed to
the Governorship. This opposition, it was
said, was based on alleged abuse of tho
pardoning power by Thorne while Acting
Governor, during the absence of Governor
Beckham from the state.
Governor Beckham has several times
declared that be is not a candidate, and
k lias, as far as he could consistently do
.o. supported Judge Paynter- The Gover
nor declared there would be a stampede
to him in case Paynter . should find it
necessary to withdraw.

A RETROSPECTIVE REVIEW
Some Highlights Caught Upon the Film of History.
r
X looking over the- records of the
passing year as affecting home Inter-.
csts, family life In town and country, the
general progress of Oregon In the arts
and appliances of civilization, several
points claim notice The first is the ever
,widenlng interest of the people of Oregon
In their schools of all degrees. Expendi
ture on public schools grows. Extension
of the library system authorized bv the
last Legislature 'has been pressed for
ward, and will, doubtless, make still
further progress. Who can appraise the
worth of good books In country' school
house and farm home?
.T takes -U long,, long " "while to set
I people thinking on homo "topics, and
without thinking action Is liable to be
"both spasmodic and quickly to die out-1
Xever more truly i this seen than in
the geod roads movement -which the peo
ple have now made their own. Argu
ment have been put forward for years,
seemingly in vain, but there has "been

' SESSION
Senate Has Much Executive
Business. Before It.
DEBATE IS ON SHIP SUBSIDY
Several Nominations to Come Up to
the Upper Hou.sc of Congress Arc
in Controversy May Cattle
Much Discussion.
'ASHIXGTOX. Dec 31. The Senate
will not do very much legislative busi
ness this week. It Is not expected that
the scplcn will occupy more than two
days Thursdaj and Friday. Tho shlp
subUdy bill is the unfinished business,
and Senator GnllinRer may open the
debate In favor of the measure. This
will depend upon the desire of Sena
tors who may wish to consider other
business. There Is a considerable
amount of executive business, some of
which Is In controversy, and this may
consume the few days the Senate Is in
session.
At the time of the adjournment the
confirmation of the Panama Canal Com
missioner!; had been reconsidered and
the nomination of J. B. Bishop as a new
commissioner had just been made. The
nominations had alj been referred to
the committee on inter-occanic canals,
and It Is expected that early reports
will be made, in order that the Senate
may take them up. There are some
other minor nominations In controver
sy, notably two officers who have been
detailed as chlofs of bureaus In the
War Department and a legal question
has boon raised as to the meaning of
the law providing for such details.
Some Other nominations have been held
up.' and the Senate may devote all its
time this week to executive business.
Even If nominations arc not to be
considered the new developments in
Santo Domingo will afford opportunity
lo discuss tho treaty Informally. At
present the treaty Is not before tho
Senate, having a second time been re
ferred to the committee on foreign re
lations. It is expected that it will be
amended in several particulars before
It again comes before the Senate.
As if In anticipation of the flight of
Morales and the establishment of an
other government Jn Santo Domingo,
the State Department had recommended
that the treaty be amended so that It
would confer authority upon the
United States to deal with existing gov
ernment conditions in the Island. Pos
sibly the situation may be discussed In
the Sonate even before the treaty Is re
ported. ADMISSIOX OF TWO STATES
Uou.se Will Favor the Grouping of
Territories in Pairs.
WASHIXGTOX, Dec. ll.-The House of
Representatives will settle down as soon
as It meets Thursday, and possibly before
the end or the week It will pass the bill
providing for the admission of two new
states.
The first thing to dispose of is the ref
erence of the President's message, the
subject upon which floods of oratory were
expended before the holiday recess. Gen
eral debate has closed, and. after a short
discussion under the flve-mlnute rule; a
vote will be taken upon the only contested
point, which is whether the portion of
the message-relating to Insurance shall
be referred to the ways and means com
mittee or the committee on "Interstate and
foreign commerce. The contention has
been over the point whether legislation
for the control of Insurance companies
shall be under the taxing power of the
government, or the power to control com
merce between the states.
There was a possibility of a clash' be
tween the Philippine tariff bill and the
Joint statehood bill. The Philippine bill
Is already reported, and, being a privi
leged measure, can be 'called up at any
time The statehood bill is still in com
mittee, but It Is known that It can be
brought out at any time and put before
the House. Acting in accordance with
the decision of the Republican, caucus, it
Is expected the majority members of the
committee on rules will bring in a rule
making the statehood bill a special order
for the admission of two states. As the
measure now stands and as it will be
reported. It provides for the admission of
Oklahoma and Indian Territory as one
state, with the name of Oklahoma, and
the admission of Xcw Mexico and Arizona
au another state, named Arizona.
There is practically no opposition any
where to the Oklahoma proposal, but
there Is determined opposition to coupling
Xew Mexico and Arizona together, par
ticularly by certain Interests In Arizona,
and the objection is voiced by the almost
unanimous vole of the minority.
AVhen the statehood bill Is out of the
way the House will, be ready for the
Philippine tariff bill, and the interesting
contest that ensued over the reduction of
duty on Cuban products Is likely to be
repeated. The beet and cane-sugar In
terests have become aroused, and have
built up a vigorous opposition, but the
present plan does not contemplate bring
ing up the Phlllpplno bill this week.

B. E. Sargcant7"writing In yesterday's

There arc some other stains on the

ground for In any way questioning
Lord Glasgow's statement that the coat
was used as a pillow for Admiral "Wcst

but. having regard to Dr. Beattys ac

of Lord Xelson" wound."
