SENATORS DECIDE
Eastern Oregon Men to Con
fer on Problem.
UPTON SUPPORT FACTOR
Delegation May Decide to End
Deadlock; Chances Rained It
Crook Man la Deserted.
Today the eastern Oregon delega
tion Is to consider what to do about
the presidency of the state senate.
Roy W. Kitner, acting governor,
passed through Portland last night
from Salem on his way to partici
pate in the caucus. All the eastern
Oregon senators are expected to be
present with the exception of Jay
Upton.
This conference is to decide
whether the delegation shall remain
supporting Upton for president or
request release of their pledges to
the Crook county senator. The
first point to be considered is
whether the agreement which some
of the delegation had with sup
porters of B. L. Eddy is sufficiently
binding to interfere with the Upton
pledge.
Deadlock May Be Broken.
It is possible that action of the
delegation today will break the
deadlock. If three or four leave
Upton, his chance for the presidency
is ruined, and if these senators
swing to Eddy the latter will be
elected, but if the men who leave
the Upton camp do not go to Eddy,
then the deadlock will be as bad as
ever.
The conference was called by
Senator Ritner and those who will
be present are Strayer, Robertson,
Taylor, Dennis and Ellis, in addition
to Ritner. Because of the peculiarity
of his position, Upton prefers to re
main at Prineville and leave his
fate in the hands of his friends.
The Eddy agreement was made in
Portland. While Upton, Ritner,
Strayer and Johnson the latter now
pledged to Eddy were in Salem
trying to get Lafollett and Brown, a
meeting Was held by Dennis and
Corbett when a caucus was arranged
for the Eddy supporters and the.
eastern Oregon delegation. On the
return from Salem by the party the
caucus was to be held, but when
Upton was told that the plan was to
form a new deal, leaving out certain
of his supporters and a few other
senators who had not indicated how
they would vote, he declined to have
anything to do with it.
Foil Caucus Demanded.
Senator Upton absolutely refused
to consider the caucus unless all his
supporters went into it and told his
eastern Oregon friends to inform
Corbett that no deal, or combination,
would be made. The caucus was
held, however, without Upton, and
the agreement was that neither the
Eddy nor Upton sides would accept
Moser if taking his vote placed him
in the apparent position of naming
the president.
When Upton learned of this un
derstanding he insisted that hi
hands were not to be tied and that
he would not be bound by such a
promise.
Notwithstanding the agreement
with the Eddy camp, whic.h Upton
contended did not bind him, he ac
cepted Moser's vote, giving him 16,
enough to elect. Now the eastern
Oregon delegation is to decide
whether the compact with the Eddy
forces was a scrap of paper. Upton
had been told by his friends about
their objection to Moser before
Upton signed Moser. This la one
reason why there is belief in polit
ical circles that & break will come
from the Upton ranks, for Upton
knew the temper of some of his
friends on this subject, and In de
fiance of their wishes he welcomed
Moser when the latter proffered
his vote.
operative marketing, land settle
ment and publicity was stressed by
the speaker. He also told of the
drive in Portland to raise $30,000
In that city to be expended in a
large development programme for
the state.
Fruit and vegetable exhibits were
cot all in place today, but a large
number of growers have promised
their displays will be complete by
tomorrow. Honors to the display
coming the longest distance go to
a fancy chicken from New Jersey.
Special talks will be made during
the remainder of the fair, which
closes Friday evening, by H. C. Cros
by, poultry expert, and Professor
Jamison of the dairy department,
both from the Oregon Agricultural
college. Professor Reimer of the
southern Oregon experiment station,
near Talent, and c. C. Cate, Jackson
county agent, also will be present
tor consultation, i
Judges for the exhibits of pet
stock and poultry are B. F. Keeney,
Eugene; H. E. Crctsby, Corvallis, and
Mrs. J. H. Tearsley, Oak Grove.

MR. KITXER LEAVES SALEM
Acting-Governor to Attend Con
ference at Pendleton.
SALEM, Or., Dec. S. (Special.)
Aotlng Governor Ritner left here to
night for Pendleton, where he will
spend tomorrow attending a confer
ence of the eastern Oregon delega
tion In the state senate.
At this conference the eastern
Oregon senators probably will de
cide whether they will continue to
support Jay Upton of Prineville for
president of the state senate or cast
their lot with B. L. Eddy of Douglas
county or some dark horse.
Mr. Ritner said today that he an
ticipated a spirited session, but was
unable to predict the results of the
conference.
Widltam Hare of Washington
county, who has been mentioned
upon various occasions as a possible
compromise candidate for president
of the senate, has informed his
friends that he would not consider
accepting the honor, even though It
was offered to him without any
contest.

ALTHOUGH the admonitory sign
"Silence" is displayed promi
nently in most public libraries,
there are many thoughtless people
who disregard it altogether, as the
two girls illustrated are doing, to
the evident vexation of others, who
have come to the library to read or
to study without distracting inter
ruptions. Well-mannered men and women,
well-trained boys and girls do not
make unnecessary noise in a library
or in any other place where silence
iB the rule.. To slam books down, to
scrape chairs across the floor, to
whistle, to hum, or to read aloud
are conimon rudenesses quite as
vexatious to regular readers as are
the conversations carried on with
out any consideration for the rights
of others. For every one is entitled
to quietness in a library reading
room. There are many other places
where chatter is not prohibited, and
it Is exasperating that the disturbers
prefer to Intrude their clamor into
the rare and noise-forbidden peace
of Bookland.

'The present consress." M.M Mr
