REPUBLI- The Oregonian is attempting to pave the way for a populistic victory year from next June. It- says the republican party cannot face the ''people with the smell of the last legislature clinging to its garments. It quotes freely articles from democratic and populist papers, concerning the extravagance of the recent legislature, and in turn its editorials are copied , by every populist paper in the State. It has almost wholly ignored the comments of state republican papers on the doings of the legislators, and in fact there seems to be a common understand ing between the populists and Mr. Scott's paper. The Oregonian is busily en gaged in loading the populist guns for the next campaign. Perhaps they expect to hoist Mr. Scott as their senatorial can didate to defeat Mr. Mitchell two yeara hence. Whether the republican party will be . in shape to ask for the support of the people at the next election will -depend upon the class of men who will have control of its affairs. If that faction of the party, that was responsible for the ex travagance of commission and omission of the legislature, controls the nominations and policy of the republican party it will surely meet with decisive.; defeat. That faction was the ring that had control of the upper house, whose head was Joseph . Simon, whose organ was the Oregonian, "and whose candidate was J. N. Dolph. Many meritorious bills were introduced in and passed by the house, fulfilling the pledgee of the republican party and its candidates, only to be smothered ia the committee rooms of the senate, where Simon's power was supreme. The prin cipal bill, looking towards economy, that was defeated by the house, wa3 the one relating to the salary of the district at torney of Multnpmah county, and the campaign waged in its behalf was so bit , ter and disgraceful that most of the re spectable members of the house felt con strained to vote against it. The majority of the republican members of the house were in favor of economy and of pledged reforms, and their legislation was along this line. If this element is in the ascend ency during the next campaign, the re publican party of clear conscience and " conscientiousness of power to fulfill its campaign pledges, can ask the support of the people in expectation of receiving it. . But if Joe Simon and the class of m under his control, and with whom the Oregonian is identified, make the nomi nations of the party and dictate its policy, the republicans of Oregon will enter the campaign handicapped beyond all post bility of victory. - The Simon machine will make a des perate effort to regain its hold upon the politics of the state. Should it fail to receive recognition from the republican ranks, it may, by treachery, seek the de ' feat of the republican ticket by an alliance with some other party. This has always been the tactics of the Simon machine as .,- shown in the defeat of Waldo, Cornelius, Thompson and others. It is this treach ery, this rule or ruin policy, that has so disgusted the republican citizens of Ore gon with the Simon combination. It is firmly believed that the influence of the . machine has been so lessened by recent events that it will have power neither to control the nominations nor defeat the Candidates. There are many bright, ac tive and intelligent members of the party throughout the state, who are strongly opposed to the machine element, and who will be Q!i guard- to checkmate any move that the machine may make to re gain its wonted power. It looks now as if Simon's influence had been aunihiliated. If this be true, the republican party has thrown off its shackles and can go into the next cam paign as the party of the people, certain to do their will and sure of their hearty -support. From Sundry statements from Dolph papers and politicians it seems there will be a strong effort made to give the next republican nomination for represetative of this district to some man other than Hermann. These people - will not suc ceed. With them it is simply a matter of revenge, because Hermann did not fly to Dolph'sxescue during his late di lemma. The state never had a better representative, or a more popular one than Hermann. He has always been elected by large majorities over strong opponents. A fight against him, from the sonrce indicated and for the reason men tioned, will bring to his support a strong element which might otherwise not be unfavorable to some other candidate. People of Benton and Lincoln counties are more interested in the prosecution of Yaquina bay improvements than in that of any other work before congress. Mr. Hermann has proved himself an active and efficient friend of Yaquina, as is par ticularly evinced by. his recent bill pro viding for a re-survey of the bar by U. S. engineers, called forth by the adverse re port oi jpt oymonas on me utility ci The New York World figures out that the-bond syndicate has made $8,418,757 out of its job, which sum in a savings ' bank would grow to $27,528,676 in 30 ' years, the lifetime of tbebond,.. BLAME RIGHTFULLY PLACED. Among the leading republican papers of the state which, like the GazBTTB, are industriously working to place the blame for the extravagance of the recent legis lature where it rightfully belongs, is the Hillsboro Independent The following editorial comment from the last issue of that paper contains many irrifutable statements and should be perused with care: "It seems to the Independent that the nrptrnnifln oturhf tint rn hp- tnn nrevious in iasning tne late legislature, inow, n. would come with good grace from this paper because it is inclined to stand in with the "faction;" but for the Oregonian to denounce the members of the late ses sion is too much like walloping one's friends. One act severely criticised is the appropriation bill. Without saying it is extravagant or economical let at tention be called to the personnel of the ways and means committee. That com mittee was a joint body composed of ten members, five from each house. A3. s well known, the senate was dominated and organized by that portion of the party for which the Oregonian was spokes man. Simon was president of the sen ate and appointed the standing commit tees. Wright, a member of the "fac tion," was defeated for speaker of the house, but the house part of the com- j inittee was more identified with econo- ' my than the other. On the committee from senate were Bancroft, Patterson, Galbreath, Dawson, all supporters of Mr. Liolph, and Raley, democrat. From the house were Paxton and Smith of Polk Dolph men, with Wright, Gates and Hof- er of the "faction" six against three, with Raley to hear from. Now, what the Oregonian "reformers" chose to put in the appropriation bill went there and there it stayed. It is much easier to con trol appropriation to an economical point with the items off the bill, than when they are on it. If there have been extravagant appropriations then Mr. Si mon in the appointment of the commit tee is responsible for them, the Inde pendent is not the only one that thinks thus. The Corvallis Gazette last week had a well written and timely article on this same topic, which appears in another column. There are some other papers in the state that might do well to think before they join in what now seems to be a clamor that is popular. j A little enterprise on the part of peo ple of Yaquina would result in the estab lishment of a important industry and add materially to the resources of the county. From the Sound is shipped weekly to the Portland market five tons of fish and the supply for the valley towns comes from' that market. There is no reason why Yaquina should not enter in com petition with the Sound fish industry. They can secure as favorable express rates to Portland as the Sound people, and of course the Yaquina fish are preferable as they arrive, in better condition. A steam schooner should be provided for the business, which will enable those en gaged in the enterprise to be independent of either wind or tide. It is estimated that by careful management the fish will net two cents per pound. If the business is properly attended to and the supply can be depended upon Yaquina could soon control at least three-fifths of the trade, or six thousand pounds per week, The industry would require the employ ment of several men throughout the year and would net the promoters of the en terprise 500 per month, or $6,000 an nually. A shrewd manager would soon develop a direct trade with several val ley towns, and in other ways enhance the importance of the industry. Probably when the new organizers of the Oregon Pacific are - assured of the confirma tion of their purchase, they will take the matter in hand and aid any enterprising company in establishing the business. Nature has liberally endowed Yaquina with resources; what she needs is push and enterprise on the part of her citizens to enable her to make the best of her opportunities.- . An editorial in the Pendleton Tribune of February 28th contains more brazen, false, outrageous statements concerning the wrongdoings of the legislature, and the responsibility thereof, than its foster mother, the Oregonian, dares to express. It did not attempt to follow up its state ments by proof, contenting itself with lying generalities. It endeavors to fix blame for all harmful legislation and failure to pass good bills upon what it terms the "bolters." One expression in particular, shows the effrontry of this petty organ of the Simon machine: "For the non-fulfillment of every promise concerning the smashing of unnecessary commissions," it says, "the bolters are to blame." That paper knows that state ment to be absolutely false. The house contained twenty-seven of the thirty bolters. In fact the bolters controlled pretty much all legislation of the house. The senate was controlled by the Dolph men, only three members of that body being identified with the anti-Dolph movement There was a general demand all over the state for a repeal of the act creating the railroad commission. A bill for this purpose passed the house and re ceived the unanimous support of the bolters. In the senate, however, it was given a dose of Simon's sleep dope, and thereafter knew no awakening. This lit tle cuckoo paper says the bolters are re- sponsible. Since the legislature ad journed, the Oregonian has been wiser and does not directly charge the so-called crimes of the legislature upon the bolt ers, but its little slop carrier, ignorant of facts and devoid of honor, is attempting : to help tne real obstructors of honest leg- isiation, in their cry of "stop thief." Fool legislation is not peculiar to any one state. A Connecticut legislator has introduced a bill requiring a child to be named within three daya of its birth. - jJE" STATE REPTTBilCA'N 1VBAGT8. Convention to be Held in May to Send Delegates to National Convention. The executira committee of the state republican clubs met in Portland Saturday and after due deliberation decided to call a state convention to elect delegates to the national league conventiou . at Cleveland, June 19th. In accordance therewith the followinff Oftll WHS trA.inTfl nni will tin fnr warded to the several clubs throughout the j fttate by Secretary Wells.: To the Repubrfcau Clubs of the State of Oregou: At a meetiug of the executive committee of the Young Meu'a State Republican Club, dlled by the president aud held at Port land March 9, 1895, it wag decided to call a special meeting of the club, to be held at Portland, Wednesday, May 22, 1S95, at 10 o'clock a. in. The state club ia composed of local clubs represented in proportion to their actual membership. Every republican club being permanently organized with a constitution and bylaws, ia entitled to representation in the Btate club, whether on the club's present official list or cot. Clubs are entitled to oue representative at lars;e and one for each 25 member or fraction thereof greater than fifteen. Secretaries of clubs are requested to fill out the enclosed certificate of mem bership aud list of delegates chosen to rep resent the club and return it to the secretary of the state club at early as possible. By doing so the work of organizing the conven tiou will be greatly facilitated and delegates will not be subjected to inconvenience or possible loan of their certainty as to the number of delegates to which their cluba are entitled. All oredentials must be signed by the president or vice-president aud sec retary and all proxies must be in writing. Cluba organized between now and the con vention will be entitled to representation the same as the old elubs. The object of the meeting is to elsot dele gates to the eighth annual convention of the Republican League of the United States, to be held at Cleveland, Ohio, June 19, 1835 to oonaider the advisability of changing the name of the state organization to "The Re publican League of Oregon," in order to conform to the title generally used by the state clulis belonging to the national league; to devise a means of revenue for maintain ing and extending the state orjanizattou and to further in any other way the inter ests of the republican party iu the state of Oregon. Oregon has never been adequately repre anted at the national league convention. and should this year be present with the entire eighteen delegates to which she i entitled. This will be the most important meeting of the league Bince its orguizifcio-j, and will bd the first great gathering; of republican! preparatory to the presidential oampaiga of 139S. The leading repablicans of the United State to the number of 5.000 to 10,000 will be a-sembled at that conven tion, aud Oregon should be fully represented. The state ia entitled to six delegates at large and four from each congressional dis trict, making fourteen to be elected. The president and secretary of the state club, the national vice president for Oregon and the national executive committeeman for Oregon ar3 delegates ex officio, making a total of eighteen. Cluba are urgently requested to elect a full set of -delegates to the state club, aud these delegates are urged to attend iu person, so that the meeting shall be fully representative of the republi can sentiment of the state. Special rates on the railroads will be Secured for delegates. The Oregonian will probably not be found in the republican ranks next spring. .It will take the "gold cure" and lead the ho6ts of populism. It will then be in its natural element As a calamity howler it has no equal. The nearest ap proach to Scott in this respect is Madam Lease, of Kansas. It is understood the Madam will stump the state for the popu lists next spring, and will leave her babies in the care of Prophet Scott of the tall tower, who will instill into their youthful minds his direful tales of the present times. ' When Harrison was inaugurated in 1889, the interest-bearing public debt was $889,853,990: and when he retired in 1893 it was only $585,029, 100. On February 1, I895, it had increased to $684,323,710, and when the next bonds are sold it will amount to $746,723,710- Figures speak louder than words. The people of the state of Oregon are to be congratulated upon the fact that a senator has finally been elected. The newly elected senator may not have the experience nor the conceit of Dolph, but he will doubtless have more regard for the wishes and desires of his constitu ents. Post-Intelligencer. . Eager and Nipping Wind, A continuous downpour of rain, Inclement weather, generally in winter and spring, are unfavorable to all classes of invalids. But warmth and activity infused into the circu lation counteracts these influences and inter pose a defense against them. HoEtetter'a Stomach Bitters, most thorough and effect ive of stomachics and tonics, not only enriches the blood, but accelerates its circu lation. For a chill, or premonitory symp toms of rheumatism and kidney complaint, particularly prevalent at these seasons, it is the best possible remedy. It is also invalu able for dyspepsia, liver complaint, constipa tion and nervousness. Never set out on a winter or spring journey without it. Elderly persons and the delicate and convalescent are greatly aided by it.

Wolt, - Administratrix, February 25, 1895 - COUNTY COTJRT FH.OC8BDINGS. , County oourt met last Wednesday at whioh time the following proceedings were had: . " ' In the matter of road supervisors for the year 1895 it was ordered that the follew ing appointments be made to fill vacancies caused by the - resignation of certain per sons heretofore selected: Geo. H. Wag goner, diet. No. 31, instead of Ed Wil- lUm3' dliuad; Wm- McGee, No. 49, ia- stead of Horace Lilly,, resigned; John Har ris, No. 4, instead of T. C. Baker, de clined; Geo. Harris, -supervisor dist. No. 11, instead of James Robinson, declined; Eugene Palmer," supervisor of road dist. No: 3, instead of George Beamis, declined. The petition of M. T. Starr and others asking that certain changes be made in the boundaries of road district No. 29 came on for hearing, and it appearing that the prayer of the petition should be granted it was ordered that said boundaries be changed so as to read as follows: Commencing at e. cor. sec 21, thence west to main channel of Muddy stream, thence up said stream in a southwesterly direction until it intersects the west line of sec. 29, thence south to south line of Benton county, thence east ten miles, thence north to place of be ginning. The application of W. J. Hopper to place bis mother as a cennty charge was taken under advisement until next regular term, A petition from Mrs. E. Einriek praying that the court make and execute to her a quit claim deed quit claiming all the inter est of Benton couuty in aud to lots I, 2 and 3, block 22 in county addition to Corvallis was granted. Years ago a tract of land was deeded to Benton couuty, the funds ariaiuir from the sale of which were to be expanded in the erection of a court house. Subsequently the land was platted as the "conutv addition to Corvallis." Owing to a defect in some of the descriptions made by the oounty board, a cloud has since rested on numerous titles. Wherein these de scriptions were faulty was in deeding, for instance, bloek 22, "in Corvallis," instead of block 22, "ia oounty addition to Corvallis. To cure this defect the prayer of Mrs. Eon- rick's petition was granted. Bills of I. M. Hanter for $84 for extra clerical aid and bills of A. Kyle and C. M Parker werejall rejected. Pursuant to an advertisement, the bids for furnishing wood for the courthouse were opened and Ellsworth Irwin was awarded the contract for thirty cord- ot fir wood at $2.20 per cord, and J. C.
