.. CiOkligSccDdOf tbe LtgiilBtore.
Friday, Feb, 20t!i, at midnight wai
elected u tho time for adjournment
of the thirteenth liiVnnial lession of the
Oregon Legislature. At noon of that
day before an audienco that . occupied
every inch of pac in the large room
the joint awmhly of the houses tx-gan
to ballot, trm' first atanding for W. R.
Bilyeu 36, Jhrsch 34, Earhart 10;
rest acatWing. At 1 p. m, the Demo
crata made a motion to take a recm
of one hour for dinner,' hut it waa lost
by a party vote, Soon thereafter the
different Republican Senatorial candi
date! provided their aupportera with
elegant lunches, fine cigtra, etc, and
while the Republican Solon were talc
' ing their eaue and .wishing the bliss
would continue forever, the patriotic,
though hungry, Democratio statesmen
were going out one by one for proven-
dor. . The balloting . continued along
Without" change until three o clock
when Gor. Moody' name wan nuUti-
' tuted for that of Earhart and he r
ceived 18 votes. During thin tune, u
thftf did all the evening, the Demo
crat , complimented nearly every
' prominent leader in the State. Tliut
- the evening wore on and tho minority
party grew hungry acain and made
motion for a recess of one hour but
the Republicans voted it down, and
the Democrats once more had to rustln
' for something to eat The Rpubli
cans onoe more were enjoying lunchra
' from 6 p. m. until V p. m. there was
no break in tbe monotony, At the
last mentioned time Senator Lee (R.)
made a motion for a recess of twenty
minutes. The Democrats saw at once
that it was intended for a Republican
cauuui, and they voted solidly against
if, as did also the "kickers," which
defeated it. At this time the hour for
adjournment of the joint convention
was fixed at 11 p m.t being carried by
the Democratio and "kickor vote.
At 10:13 another motion to take re
cess wis niade nnd voted down, and I
motion of tho ringstm made at 10:30
.p. m.'waa voted down. It was ovident
ithat these motions were mndo for the
.... i
mm purpose of euiicting a compromise
ion Corbett or Failing. . These gentle'
linen, probably thought that they knf w
ito whom tho honor would finally fall.
At least, at about 10 o'clock they took
poesession of the judiciary committee
rroom atid opened out a saloon, having
whiskey, beer, champagne and cigars.
Just think of itl High toned Tort
Hand aristocrats acting as barkeepers
tdrawing brer, did performing menial
ise-rvice for a rustio who is both "sock.
Oons and nocktiolt'ss" as tho Oregonian
ia one of ila most harmonious moods
characterized the interior inhabitants.
Two Republicans got drunk in this
room. At 10:40 p. in. the clerk Im
gan the roll call for. the Inst ballot
amid great excitement and with fully
3,000 persona prcrent Before this
ballot the Republicans thought that
they could vote twice more, but as
the roll call procedodj and the tactics
of the Democrat were exposed, it was
plainly apparent that the fare would
end with this ballot. The name of
each Democrat had to he called twice
and they scattered wildly which caused
aome delay. Four Republicans during
- this ballot voted for J. II. Mitchell and
were cheered wildly by the lobby, and
Harvey Scott fairly trembled wiih
fear lest that gentleman should be
elected. But at the end of the ballot
it wu found that Hirsch had gained
one vote, that of Saunders. When
the roll call was finished, it still lacked
five minutes of eleven, and the Demo
crats got the floor and one after anoth
er the Democrats changed their votes
until the dock struck the fated hour
when the Democrat cried "Time.'
Nevertheless, after the hour the Pres
ident allowed Therkelson, Cartwright,
and Lyla ' to change their votes t
Hirach, making hi vote 37. During
this time those voting for the majority
candidate lagged tbe "kicker" to
change their votes ere it was too late.
Hare especially wu importuned but
without avail, he decKnn with lean
running down his checks.. At 11:20
precisely, the President announced tin
result and dissolved the convention
without the election of an U. S- Sena
tor. The Democrats in the lobby
' made the building shake with a storm
f cheers, while the Republicans wear
ing aad countenances slowly passed out.
The Democratio meailtera shook hand
bugged each othr and congratulat d
thems lwe with a good : will But
f9 was another scene in the drama,
TL House and Senate met in their
ieparate chamberi at 11:43 for tbi'
purpote of allowing the presiding offi
cers to sign some bills, when a brilliant
idea struck some RspuMican memW.
A motion to rescind the joint resolu.
tion pons'! five days liefore by a vote
of ayes and noes. In the House with
out even a division, which was called
for, the Syeaker illegally declared the
same carried. In a few moments the
resolution wo taken to tho Senate
where a motion was already pending,
but President Waldo without regard
for parliamentary usage or law com
manded the clerk to read the resolution
The Democratic members objected to
its consideration a it was plainly out
of order a day's previous notice being
required for a reconsideration. But
the President arbitrarily declared it
in order; the Democrat then called
for the ayes and nays, but the Presi
dent in a high handed and outrageous
manner ignored the Democrats and
declared the motion carried. We do
not believe that one senator voted for
or against the measure, but if the wo
luilon was'carried it was by the vote
of the lobby as they were the only
ones we heard voting. At this junc
ture Senators Myers, Wrath
erford, Dorris, Bilyeu and Coleman,
and Senators Simon, Lee and Hirsch
were all tulLing and pounding the
desk of the President at the same
lime. Senator Carwright icade an at
tempt to assuult John Myers but Sen.
Coleman sat him down quickly. The
Oregonian following it3 usual malicious
course falsely reported that Represen
tative Bilyeu attacked Senator Simon
and attempted to draw a pistol on
him. Mr. Bilyeu had no pistol, and
did ncjt attempt to assault Mr. Simon
or any other person, and if he had so
wished could have found plenty of op
portunities. Mr. Simon demanded
that Mr. Bilyeu 'leave the floor, which
Mr, Bilyeu, having a perfect right
there, . distinctly declined to do.
Out of audi a trifling circumstance the
prolific imagination of the Oreguiran
genius built bis fabric of falsehood.
The Democrats withdrew at' 12:15
after which the majority made a mo
tion to adjourn t ill 10 a in., which waa
pronounced carried. This was the most
diHL'rautifai ollUir that ever was enacted
in a Legislature, and the majority was
certainly responsible ' for .th , same.
After the Democrats withdrew - they
held a meeting and resolved not to
attend upon any so-called Legislature,
and hire' a hall and remained over
Saturday, The Republicans nmt' Sat
urday at 10 a. ui. in the respective
houses, but not having a quorum ad
journed to meet in joint convention
at noon. . At that lime they nut and
balloted for Sentor. Only 41 vcied,
not a quorum, and they voted for 29
candidates, the highest vote fur any
uiie man luting three. A recess was
taken until four. At the appointed
Uine the rump legislature met, the
most sorrowful and woe begone lut of
men ever gathered together. After
repeated efforts they could not muster a
quorum, and the President adjourned
the convention sine die,
The iuebtiou now agitating the
avcrngu politician is whether the Gov
ernor has a riiflit to appoint a U, &
Senator for tho next two years.. We
believe that thu Governor has no right
to appoint, but we think that he wi.l
appoint and that the appointee will
be admitted to the seat. However,
in 1859 a like vacancy "occurred in the
State, and Governor Whiteaker refused
to avail himself of the privilege, be
hoving that he had no legal right to
do sa The Secretary of Sttte of the
Uuited States at that time, Mr. Cass,
the eminent statesman, whose history
is identical with that of the Republic
for a third of a century, in an opinion
to the Governor expressed the come
view as held by Mr. Whitraker.
The Democratio Territorial Commit
tee of ashington Territory has
passed a resolution favoring the
appointment of Senator James
Slater to the position of Commissioner
of the Genera! Land office it Wash
ingtori. The Democrats of the Ore
gon Legislature unanimously recum
mended biia for the position of Com
missioner of Indian affair. We have
information that Idaho and Montana
will follow the example of Washiugtcn
Territory, and press his appointment
for the position named. We hope
Senator Slater will be appointed to
ono of lh a'xyre positions. Such an
appointment would meet the hearty
and unqualvtW approval of the people
of Oregon, and would greatly sliength-
en the Administration in this State.

With fourteeu Republican majority
is the Republican Legislature to blame
in refosing to elect a Senatbrl
Wu there not a deiestable preju
dice iu the minds of not a few Repub
lican legislators, and is not theirs the i
party tliaf contains the narrow
minded individual who hate the Eu
ropean immigrant and loves only ' the
yellow mongolian! .
Were not a majority of the nominal
supporter of Hirsch rcslly indifferent
in his cause, merely masquerading!
Why did not the stupid rustics cower
under tho blackguardism and abusive
epithets of the overgrown Oregonian!
Can it be, that St John is at the
the bottom of this muddle, or is it
"British money!' both of which rea
ons are . always bogies to the Republi
can mind.
