Salem, Or., Jan 15, 1885.
The Thirteenth Uiennift! wwtion of
th Oregon IKialaturo convened in
this city lout Mondiy. Thu houne
ftTfctcd a temporary organization
promptly in tha morning. In the af
ternoon of the sanifl day a permanent
organization was effWted. Th candi
dates for Hpooker were: Montayne,
Daruccra:, of Linn; GilU-rt, of Marion;
Portland Ring IL-puMican and Keady,
of Benton, Anti Rinif RopuMitan. On
tba Bret ballot Montaynn received the
entire Democratic vote, while Gillier1
and . Keady received the Republican
vote evenly, 17 votes Wing received by
each. On the second hallot Gillert
received he entire Republican voto ex
cept 10, who voted for Keady, while
Montayne received the Demoeratic
vote. Junt prior to the announcement
of tho vote the Democratic ineiiibent
began changing to Keady, which
created much excitement especially
among the menus oi inn ring canuuuur,
Gilbert. The Republicantjdeclare that
the minority party scornl a triumph,
and for all practical purpose have thf
(Speaker on their nid. One fact is cer
tain that Simon, Hirwh, et al, received
i back set that they wero not expecting.
In the Senate after much wrangling in
the caucus tho Republicans ehcted a
gentleman for President, Hon Win
Waldo. He is said to stnnd right on
the railroad question and also upon the
Mortgage Tax Law. Portland certain
tainly does not control the present Leg
iulnture, The Democrats cost their
complimentary voto for President for
that nohht and firm disciple of De
mocracy, Hon E Hoult, of Linn, The
Senatorial election has been put ofF a
week from next Tuesday, by a brilliant
troLe of '.he Democracy, helped by a
mall portion of the Republicans of the
house not completing their organization
until Tuesday. The Republicans are
badly scared over tho situation, as they
are afrnid thst the Democrat io mem
bers of the body will vote solidly for
some vnobjectionalile Republican who
will support the Cleveland administra
tion. At the present lime it would
noeui that the Republicans would hold
no caucus, each one of the popular
candidates being afraid of the result of
audi a body. From talk in the lobby
it would appear that Hoi Hirsch would
have the most votes on the first ballot.
lut it m the general opinion that he
will not ho elected, m a number of
nti-inoiiopoly Republicans declare
ltey will never vote, for him. The
name of "Flaxbrako" Williams is often
mentioned, but it is generally believed
that 1 has very little original support,
it being! nearly entirely of a secondary
nature, Henry Failing, of Portland,
Las noise friends among his dulegalion.
M OtGcorge's name is scarcely ver
mentioned ho has no chance whatever.
Gov Moody may prove a formidubh
candidate when the break occurs, us we
Understand that he is the only interior
man m Oregon who can secure the
Portland vote. W Lair Hill is here
and also has his lightning rod up, und
we kuirn has a few votes pledged unto
liituwlf. Mitchell is scarcely ever
mentioned, but he has a fewfriomls
presenl who are on the alert. Col
Knight, of Salem also has entered the
list but does not have 'much strenghi.
T2d Watson is not mentioned. J udge
Boiaa bos rooms titled up and wn learn
from- good authority ihat ho has a
inrmber of anti monopolists pledged to
him. The man "with a head full of
brains," the gallant Colonel Kelsay, of
Benton, is on the scene and swears that
bo will carry off the honors, if thu party
Las any sense, which he is fearful they
are deficient in. Hon 12 L Apptegate is
around "button holeing," and claims
support for Mug '.hi oi.ly original
Republican in Oregon, but of course
possesses no support with the exception
of Cameron of Jackson. The struggle
far this office, at the Dresent writing
promises to lie a long bitter one.
Rumors are rife that the Alaska Fur
Co have a sack of $30,000 which they
will expend for the notorious Williams.
The Democrats will probably hold a
caucus in the near future and detei-
mine upon some course. Among the
endidates mentioned by the minority
V4 have heard the following able
entleioen: Senator Jas II Slater,
Cor John Whiteaker, Gov W W
Thayer, Hon R 8 Struhan and John
BaruML In all likelihood each will
teceive ooiuplimeutsry UlloU. The
sourse of Senator Slater is heartily
fldowd by his Democratic constituenU
ot the Legislature, and if his party
wert in the majority' he woulj be
elected, we Mieve, unanimously.
It is generally Mieved that the
present Legislature will pass a railroad
bill with similar "provisions to tho
Reagen bill which recently passed the
House at Washington. Both houses
have patsed a resolution unanimously
asking our Senators in the U S Senate
to make and vote for said law. A
registry law will be passed. There will
be an Attempt ma.le to abolish the
Mortgage Lax Law, liut I do not think
it will win. We hear many members
of the Legislature expressing themselves
as favorable, to the building of another
edifice for the State University. The
menibeis from Lane are working hard
for the best interests of Lane county
and deserve the hearty commendution
of their constituents. One thing is an
absolute certainty, Portland will net
control legislation this year. Tim main
lobbies here now are in the interests of
the division of different counties, lie
foro long, however, we expect lobbies
from tlei railroads, money lenders, etc
Bills, both good and bad, are being in
troduced in innumerable numbers.

Mr Bancroft, the veteran historian,

exercise, it is not bard to account for
his long life. 1 Iu has never burdened

does not rsuognite tho word Republi

says, "You Whigs," Up i0 the close
of last fall he has always devoted
several hours a day to horse back
riding.
Senator Garland of Arkansas seems
to be designed by the voice of universal
approval for a place in Cleveland's
cabinet. Ihe Cincinnati Enquirer re
cently invited prominent politicians,
North and South, to submit a list 0f
names for the cabinet, and almost
every oi.o of theso lists contains the
name of A II Garland in connection
with the Attorney-Generalship.
Cleveland hsa discovered withiu the
past few months that he has a grtat
many relativea.
1 Low Tariff Straw.
An illustration of the beneficail ef
fects upon manufacturers of a low tariff
is !iven by Mr Perry in his new work
on Political Economy. In 1872, not
daring to go into the Presidential can
vass cf that year with the taxes as they
were, the Republicans in Congress re.
moved the duties upon a number of
articles, and reduced most of the list 10
per cent. Among the articles put up
on the' free list were coffee and raw
hides, and this led at once to an in
creased trade with Venezuela, whence a
large part of the foreign supply of the
latter is secured, and U a large increase
of our exports of tanned leather. In
1870, In-fore tho repeal of tho duty, our
whole import and export trade with
Venezuela amounted to only $3,345,145.
In 1870 our trade with th it country
amounted to $0,299,993.. The increase
of our shipping in the trade wWn that
republic during this time was from (if
teen vessels to 134; from a tonnage of
2,571 to 43,450, and from 109 sailor
to 1,255, Our exports in tanned
leather increased from $2,664,000 in
1872, under taxed hides, to ?7,940,010
in 1876, under free hides. A similar
experience has resulted in the hide and
leather trade of California, from the
same cause. All this was the outcome
of freeing from taxation two articles
only, nnd me raw material. These in
direct results of just a little freedom
will ct.rtainly encourage the Demo,
cratio administration to further efforts
in the same direction. It ought te do
so, at all events, S. F. Examiner.
A Washington special says: Demo
cratic officers of the army are beginning
to arrive in Washington, ar.d a Demo
cratic captain, who has been out on the
frontier for seventeen years siys. "I
have come to Washington to s'ay. I
have seen all the frontier service I ever
intend to, Now wii'ie of the Republ:.
can bnys can go out and take my place
for a bile, ft im (hit first time I hi d
a chance to see Washington for a great
ninny years. 1 walked up through the
war department, to-day to pick out a '
good soft berth for myself, und you
liavn ' no idea how polite they were to'
me. I also discovered thnt there were
an unusual numiier of Democrats in the
service."

Tariff Retaliation
Concress can be very funny when
it
does not intend to be. There can 1st
nothing funnier than this talk of retal
iating upon Europe for tsxing our
cereal products. When Germany and
Frunce thought they had found bugs in
our pork and refused to admit provis
ions from ibis country, Congress breath
ed out threats of retaliation. They
came to naught.
England claimed that American cat
tie were diseased, and imposed restric
tions upon the importation of live stock
into Great Britain. Under tin lead of
some funny men in Conre.s tlm West
began tJ buckle on its horse pintols and
h.iwie knives iu order to "retaliate."
This movement never lecame effective.
Europn leurns that American petro
leum is "doctored.", and France thinks
that n few more francs duty upon
American grain will "boom" matters in
France. Now, auairt wo hear the mum
bled threats of retaliation, and again do
they come from that funny Congress of
onrs.
Why is it funny! Decause it origi
nolly tiit off an inch of its nose by tin
posing restrictions upon the commene
of this country, nnd when other na
tions do the same because ibis nation
did it, Congress hops up and down and
howls out, "do it, and I'll bitn another
inch from my nose!" 1 liar funny Con
gress, ojkI that hug joke, retaliation!
The Grocer's Advocate hits the fol
lowing account of an ingenious contri
vance to take the place of matches, and
which it says is now used by all the
watchmen of Paris in all the magazines
where expolsives or ir.flamablo mater
ials are kept, Tuke an oblong vial of
the whiteat and clearest glass and put
into it a piece of phosphorous about
the size of a pea. Pour some olive oil
heated to the boiling point upon the
phosphorous, fill the vial about one-third
full and cork it tightly. To use tho
novel light remove the cork, allow the
air to enter tho vial and then recork it.
This empty spaje in the vial will lie
come luminous, ai d tl e light obtainrd
is equal to that of a lamp. When the
Iglit becomes dim ils power can be in
creased by taking out the cork and al-
1 iwing a fresh supply of air to enter
the vial.
