ner. When his name was called, Sena
tor Oowan made a speech and reviewed
at length the situation from the stand
point of a Mitchell supporter. He ai.
the rosponsibilty for thu hold-un on tl,..
opposition, and said:
"We demand only what is right. We
will never surrender to what is wrong.
They charge that Senator Mitchell
alone is resHisib!o for this hold-up.
We deny it; as a body of men and as
individuals, wo deny it on document
ary evidence. I desire to read a letter
which will forever set that statement
at rest."
Oowan then read tho following let
ter: "Salem, Or., Feb. 22, 1897. II,,,,.
Samuel Hughes, Chairman of the lie
publican Conference, Salem, Or. My
Dear Sir: I understand thero is a
strong disposition upon tho part of a
majority of the Kepublicans to adjourn
tho legislature sine die, without fur
ther effort to secure tho election of a
senator. This would leave tho state
only partly represented in tho senate
of the United States, tho effect of
which, in all probability, would be to
dace tho control of the senate in the
hands of those opposed to the liepubli
can party, in which event tho defeat of
tarilf legislation at the coming extra
ordinary session of congress would bo
assured. It stems to me, therefore,
there is a paramount duty resting upon
you, to make one more determined
effort, before final adjournment, to se
cure the election of a senator. There
are many prominent Kepublicans locat
ed in different sections of the state,
eminently qualified for tho position
men who would do credit to the party,
the state and the nation. I w ill co
operate with you anil all other Hepub
licans in the legislature in endeavoring
to bring about tho election of such a
Kepublican as the Kepublican confer
ence, to whom this letter is addressed,
will agree UKin. Yours verv sincerely,
"John H. Mitchell."" j
Gowan then went on to dicsuss tho ,
letter, and said: I
"A caucus of thirty-nine Repub
licans is behind John II. Mitchell, and
we do not propose to change base at
this time."
In conclusion, ho said: "I give it as
my opinion that we must adjourn with
out securing legislation, and without
the election of a United States senator."
Brown stated that the letter which j
Oowan had read hail been presented to
the conference Kcpuhlicans.aud that the I
conference by a standing vote, had de
cided to stay by its candidate, "wl o- I
ever he is," until they got a chance to
vote for him.
Senator lteed, of Douglass, made a
speech, and introduced a letter, which
he said had been presented to the Ue
publican conference.
The paper was substantially an agree
ment to be signed by all sides, in which
the meiuliers were pledged to organize
and secure remedial legislation, and to
vote for no candidate for United States
senator in such manner as to elect him,
and to so distribute tlieir votes as to
prevent an election. The full text of
tho letter was withheld from publica
tion. After several other speeches of minor
importance the convention adjourned
w ithout taking a ballot.
Thu Nfimte.
The senate held a brief session Mon
thly. The following motion was
made by Michell of Wasco:
"In honor of the occasion, this being
tho 1 (loth anniversary of t lie birth of
George Washington, who was 'Kirst in
peace, lirst in war, and first in the
hearts of his countrymen,' I move that
the senate now adjourn."
, Heed of Douglas sprang quickly to
his feet, saying:
"I have an amendment to offer. I
move that the senate now adjourn sine
die."
"The motion is not susceptible of an
amendment of that kind," replied the
president. "Besides, it is itself out of
order."
Michell's motion carried, 15 to 14.

PRtSIDENT'S DAILY ROUTINE,
; Gener-tl llarrlmni YVrltr. of "A Hay Willi
the I'ro.lilrnt at III. Ilr.k."
j Ex-President Harrison has written of
"A Day With the President at His
Desk" for the March Ladies' Home
Journal. The article is said to be sin
gularly interesting in the detail with
which it dcscrilss the wearisome
routine of the president. It is said
that (ieneral Harrison, in this article,
has delivered himself with great direct
ness ami vigor, relative to the annoy
ances that are visited upon a chief ex
ecutive by persistent office-seekers, ami
he suggests a uuiipic plan, by which
the president's burdens in that direc
tion could be greatly lightened, and lu
be enabled to devote more attention to
more important matters. A feature of
the article that w ill have a timely in
terest to those ambitious to serve the
country under the incoming adminis
tration, describes very fully how the
president makes appointments to office.
"A Day With the President at His
Desk" is uniipie in being the tirst time
that the dailv life of the president has
been described by one who has tilled I
the exalted office. Articles upon the I
sis'ial and domestic life of the presi
dent hyOcneral Harrison will follow in

Faille's celery compound is woi king
miracles iu the cure of diseasel
So says a recent article by the fore
most medical essayist in Boston.
"Nothing shows more conclusively,"
he adds, "the astonishing capability of
Paine's celery compound than the
tliotighful, opcii-niiinlcd class of people
who use it ami recommend it, Kith iu
public and among their closest and
dearest friends and relatives. Among
us ( physiciansl there is no longer any
hesitancy in recommending this great
est remedy without stint of praise."
About the same time the above ar
ticle was published there appeared in
the Boston Journal the following letter
from David K. I'hasscrof 4,','J Windsor
St., ('aiubridgcH,i t, a suburb of Huston:
"1 take great pleasure iu testifying
to the extraordinary merits of Paine's
celery coiiiHiund. For some time past
I have been under the treatment of two
well-known local doctors, but their
combined efforts proved of no avail. I
have been for year a harsh skeptic iu
regard to advertised medicines, but
having suffered exc rutiatiug pains iu
the head, w hich the doctors informed
me note due to neuralgic symptoms, I
determined to try Paine's celery com
pound, on the advice t.T a friend.
"To my surprise I found an entire
change going on after taking a little
over three bottles and 1 began to feel
like a new man. I have for the past
ten or twelve years suffered from pains
iu the back and other smyptoms of de
rangement of the kidneys and bladder,
and have spent many sleepless nights
iu coiiscpiciice, but now 1 sleep sound,
thanks to the common sense which in
duced me to try Paine's celery com
pound. I will ever praise the marvel
ous potency of this valuable medicine,
and at any time will be glad to give
K'isonal testimony at my address,
should any sufferer care to call, as I
consider it selfish to keep such a bless
ing housed up, ami think the proprie
tors of Paine's celery couimnd deserv
ing of more thanks than 1 can convey
in words, for making me a new man."
A word to other sufferers:

Paine's celery compound, ami allow
